Rumor is a particular assertion or affirmation proceeding of some suspition, without any certaine Author. But Fame is a common affirmation, hauing some certaine Au∣thor: either of which whosoeuer will impugne, must call it an vncertaine brute or clamor, taking his beginning first of ma∣lice, and his increase through credulitie and lightnesse of be∣leefe, and that the same may chance to the most innocent man, that is, through the Fraud of his enemies, publishing a∣broad false surmises against him. Contrarily, he that will de∣fend Fame or Rumor, must say that it riseth not of nought, nor is spred abroad without some iust cause, and that it is ac∣counted as a publike Testimony, according to the old Pro∣uerbe; which saith; vox populi, vex Dei, the voyce of the people is the voice of God.
