Apoc. 10. .

The text.

And when the seauen thunders had spoken their voices, I was about to write: And I heard a voice from heauen saieng vnto me: Signe the things which the seauen thunders haue spoken: and ∴ write them not.

The note.

Manie great mysteries and truths are to be preserued in the church,

Page 291

which for causes knowen to Gods prouidence, are not to be written in the booke of holie Scripture.

The answer.

Farre fetched, and déere bought is good for ladies, Iohn was forbidden to write, Ergo they are kept in the church. When you can prooue that your church knoweth those things, which Saint Iohn was forbidden to write, and those things which Saint Paule heard, and sawe in heauen, and might not vtter, then will I beléeue all your vnwritten verities.
