& not prooued by the principles of faith. This is cleere, because euery faculty suppo∣seth her principles, & by the light of them which the student bringes with him, she sheweth truths pertinēt vnto her skill that were hidden. But the Scriptures are not cleere and euident, but to such only as haue aforehand the light and faculty of fayth, yea they be dark & obscure vnto Infidels, as not only the (x) 1.1 Fathers teach, but also Protestants graunt. Therefore the Scrip∣tures be not the prime principles of fayth supposed before fayth, which Infidells seeing to be true, resolue to belieue the my∣steryes of Fayth; but only are secondary truths darke and obscure in themselues, be∣lieued vpon the prime principles of fayth.
