Our Answer.
The Fathers do, indeed, reiect Will-worship: wherein, as we do willingly subscribe vnto their iudgement, so may we iustly reprehend you, for your wilfull wresting of the Fathers sentences: Who, as they did condemne all such doctrines, Traditions, yea, and (if you will) also Ceremoniall Constitutions, which are mingled with some false and corrupt opinion; so did they vniuersally iusti∣fie, prescribe, and practise Traditions (such as ours are) which were meerly Ceremoniall, as you well know by the Canons of their Councels, which your selues do ob∣iect, and your owne hearts can tell you, that you op∣pose the Fathers against vs in this case, not as their inge∣nuous children, seeking to follow their iudgement; Page 32 but as men aduersely & sinisterly affected, as if, in confu∣ting vs, you meant to condemne them (if you could) by their owne sayings. As might haue easily appeared by their Testimonies, if you would haue insisted vpon particulars.
