Answ. And see you not that this is a lis de nomine, and of a name of your own introduction for illustration? If we were playing at a Game of Tropes, I could tell you that the Healing of Mens Unbelief is applicatory for the healing of their Guilt; And the healing of Men's Ignorance, Pride, and Wrangling about words, and frightening Men into a Conceit that it is about Life and Death, is applicatory as to the healing of the Churches Wounds and Shame.
