Life of Tomaso the Wanderer an epitome.
Flecknoe, Richard, d. 1678?

Of his Religion.

OF his Religion I say nothing, since he had none at all, (having left it long before that he might make no scruple nor conscience of any thing) and your Athiest and Heathen were Names too serious for him, who only made a mockery of it, and coun∣ted it all a cheat; Devotion, foppery; Scrip∣ture, fabulous; Heaven and Hell, nothing; and Gods and Fiends, only inventions of men to fright and terrifie Fools from being as bravely wicked as himself; who laught and made a fool of Machiavel, for holding that none cou'd be extreamly vicious.
