The apology of the Church of England, and an epistle to one Seignior Scipio…

IT is observed by the last mentioned Author, that whilst Jewel was reading this Letter to Dr. Tresham Vice-chancellor, the great Bell of Christ-Church (which this Doctor having caused to be new run a few days before, had christened by the name of Mary, tolled) and that hearing her pleasant voice now call him to his beloved Mass, he burst out into an Exclamation.
