The answer.
Your two notes being both out of one sentence, which could not well be deuided, I haue coupled togither. And bicause I am sure that by catholikes you meane none other but papists, there∣fore you do well to couple them with pagans, & infidels. For tou∣ching saluation and damnation they stand all in one state & case, that is, in the state of damnation, except they repent. As for your phrase which you make so much a doo about, it hath alreadie béen diuers tunes examined & prooued, that your imagined satisfacto∣rie penance can not be gathered out of it. Otherwise we do think that repentance to be but counterfet, which wanteth the testimo∣nies of true repentance, & doth not cause men to forsake their for∣mer sins, and to depart from them. But I pray you tell me, your images of gold, siluer, brasse, stone, and wood, can they see, heare, or walke? haue you done penance from the works of your hands, or will you wilfully go to the diuell?
