Who, as soon as he had obtained silence and liberty to speak, first of all denied the Bishops assumpte, that the moisture of the water did remain after the substance was altered. For all be it (saith he) that we do grant with the Philosophers, the air to be natural moist, notwithstanding it hath one proper and a divers degree of moisture, and the water an other. Wherefore, when as the water is converted into the air, there remaineth moisture, as you do say, but that is not the moisture of water, but the proper and natural moisture of the air. Whereupon there is an other doctrine amongest the Philosophers, as a perpetual rule, that it can by no means be, that the qualities & accidents in natural things should remain in their own proper nature, without their proper subject.

Wherefore, when as the water is conuerted into the aire, there remaineth moisture, as you doe say, but that is not the moisture of water, but the proper and naturall moisture of the aire. Whereupon there is an other doctrine amongest the Philosophers, as a perpetuall rule, that it can by no meanes be, that the qualities & accidents in natural things should remaine in their owne proper nature, without their proper subiect.
Then again the king and the Bishops raged against Lambert, insomuch that he was not only forced to silence, but also might have ben driven into a rage, if his ears had not been acquainted with such taunts afore. After this the other Bishops, every one in his order, as they were appointed, supplied their places of disputation.
