[ 459] Forgivenesse of one another, commanded and commended.

WHen Luther had wofully wronged and reviled Calvin;* 1.1 well said Calvin, Etiamsi Lutherus millies me Diabolum vocet &c. Let Luther hate me, and call me Devil a thousand times, yet I will love him, and acknowledge him to be a precious servant of God: This was an excellent temper of Calvin, and truly such a frame of spirit,* 1.2 such a sweet composure of the soul, as to forgive and forget, to pass by offences, to leave all to God, not to answer wrath with wrath, not to study revenge, not to be mindful of injuries received, is all along the Scripture command∣ed, by God himselfe commended, and by every good Christian to be carefully practised.
