The cause therefore of our predestination is not in vs, as the Monks thought, who were farre wide, but in God:
which cause the Apostle calleth (〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉,* 1.1 voluntas Dei, The good pleasure of Gods will,) And S. Augu∣stine, Misericordissimam Dei voluntatem, The most mercifull will of God.

For (God worketh all things,* 1.2 after the counsell of his owne will,) as Saint Paule witnesseth.
