Ainsvvorthes aunsvver.

In steed of humilitie he bableth most senseles through a sheet of pa∣per almost all neer written to match the leaves of a forrest in grosse er∣rours by talke: turning Dictionaries, and disputing most senselesly: and after warning, in replie, he thus speaketh.

1. He thinketh that white silk & white linen is all one. So blew silk &c. and blew linen: and he maketh no conscience in having deceived his hearers: & careth not for the Law of leaving open a well into which the vnheedy may fall.

2. Because in private garments, Levit. 19. diuerse stuff is forbidden, he dreameth Aharons Ephod had not diverse stuffe. And will beleve the Scripture rather then all Iewes consent: as though the Scripture expounded the tongue: the Old T. the Heb. and the New T. the Greke.

3. He might as well say Aharons Ephod had no golden thred; because Levit. 19. diverse stuff in garments is forbidden.

4. For an Hebrew word, Mr Ainsworth dare take against all 〈◊〉〈◊〉▪ None of wit will thinke him wise.

5. For a Iewes Law, & open storie, he preferreth hi 〈…〉〈…〉 all Iewes that ever handled Moses.

6. He despiseth this lawe, The Scribes and Pharisees sit in the chayr of Moses: So heare them.

7. The Apostles never in termes force, leave the Rabbines skill Mr Ains∣worth will be wiser: to what worth all not blind will see.

8. The Lxx. Exod. 28. haue Bysson, 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, the Apoc. alloweth that. Yet Mr. Ainsworth bableth of Tremelie from whom D. Iunius departeth infinitely: and can be giving counsell forsooth to others to regard a Latin for Hebrew help, where the Apostles damne him.

9. He can teach vs all, English: that white linen and white silke is all one.

10. And by him, silke conteineth linen and the wormes thred, as Hades, heaven and hell. As he knew not till of late, Hades: so not yet the Ephods thred.
