is mightily well pleased to think that one of his greenness of yeers should arrive to this miraculous ripenesse and maturity of knowledge in the most hid∣den mysteries of Theosophy. And comparing him∣selfe with the Reverend Doctors, finds the greatest dif∣ference to be this, that they indeed have more beard, but he more wit. And I suppose he would intimate unto us, that they have so little wit that they know not the use of their own limbs. For if he make their beards their crutches, they cannot scape going on their heads, as if they were not inverted but rightly postu∣red plants, or walking Stipites.
