CHAP. XXIIII.
* 1.1SVspition and coniecture which are two betrayers of the minde, are to be banished. He hath not saluted me kindly enough; Hee hath not kissed mee heartily; He hath abruptly cut of our discourse; he inuited me not to supper; That mans countenance was more strange then it was ac∣customed. Suspition wants no argument: we haue need of simplici∣tie, and the friendly interpretation of things. Let vs beleeue nothing, but that which is subiect to the eye, and manifest, and as long as our suspition appeareth to be vaine, let vs chide our credulitie. For this Chastisement will accustome vs to beleeue nothing easily.
