First, yeeld vs but one Father, or learned Papist, who in their Commentaries a expound this place literally, according to your sence. Secondly, It is neither comformable to the signifi∣cation of the words, for 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 signifieth, to be written afore, and not to be pictured before; neither hath it any ne∣cessarie connexion with the drift of the Apostles discourse, &c. For the Galathians being Christians conuerted from infideli∣tie, and not Heathens or Iewes (to whom the Crosse, or death of Christ vpon the Crosse, seemed foolishnesse, 1. Cor. 1.18.) [ E] were more sencelesse, that is to say, more void of right iudge∣ment, by forsaking Christ Iesus crucified, (which was by the preaching of the holy Ghost, and Sacraments ordained by God, euidently reuealed to their conscience, and receiued by Faith) than if they had forsaken him painted onely in a Cruci∣fix;

for, to forsake a thing written in the heart, and beleeued [ A] vpon the Doctrine, and by the power of the holy Ghost, is farre more vnreasonable than to forsake that which is exhibi∣ted by a dead and dumbe picture. Thirdly, your counterfeit Athanasius is a child of darkenesse, not placed at all in the workes of Athanasius by your selues: read the seuerall impres∣sions of this Author, at Rome, Paris, Basill, &c. Anno 1520, 1555, 1564, 1572, 1581, 1582, 1598, 1608, and there is no such worke of his to be found: and therefore Harding, Turri∣an, Gretsar, and your selfe abuse the world in alleading such ba∣stardly stuffe.
