It is very well read in the Digestes, De legibus & Senatusconsultis, in the law de quibus: 1Custome without reason, hath no force. And in the decrees, distinction the .viii. chapter Veritate, Augustine saith: The truth being found out, let custom give place: let no man presume to prefer custom before truth and reason. And in the next Canon, Christ said: I am the way, the truth and the life, he said not,2 I am the custom. Cyprian against the * Aquarii. Let all custom, though it be never so ancient, give place unto the truth, otherwise Peter when he was reprehended of Paul to the Galatians, might have claimed custom, but he assented rather, that custom should give place unto the truth. Cyprian in the same Epistle against the Aquarii: Custom (saith he) without truth, is the ancientness of error: and the more it obtaineth, the more grievous it is. Let the Papists therefore cease to brag of their customs, which are altogether full both of error and also of ungodliness.

Ciprian in the same Epistle agaynst the Aquarii: Custome (sayth he) without truth, is the auncientnes of error: and the more it obteyneth, the more grieuous it is. Let the Papistes therfore cease to bragge of their customes, which are altogether ful both of error and also of vngodlines.
