Answere.

And yet in the beginning of youre booke, you call it a true platforme of a Churche reformed: and I dare saye, you thinke it to be as perfect a forme of a Church, as all the best learned & godliest men in the world could frame: For it is wel known, that men of your disposition, think commonly as well of themselues, as they do of any man else, and better too. But, we graunt vnto you, that you are so farre from setting downe a perfect state of a Churche reformed, that you maye rather be called confounders and deformers, than buylders and reformers.
