Confuted by their owne Bible.

Psal. 18. 18. The testimony of our Lord is faithfull, giuing* 1.1 wisedome to little ones, Vers. 9. The precept of our Lord is lightsome, illuminating the eyes.

Psal. 118. 105. Thy Word is a lampe to my feete, and a light to* 1.2 my paths, Vers. 130. The declaration of thy words doth illumi∣nate,

and giues vnderstanding to little ones.

Prou. 6. 23. The commandement is a lampe, and the Law a light.

2. Pet. 1. 19. We haue a Propheticall Word most sure, which you doe well attending vnto, as to a candle shining in a darke place.

By all these places it is euident, that the Scriptures being a light, a lampe, candle shining, lightsome, illuminating the eyes, and giuing vnderstanding to little ones, must be plaine & easie, and not obscure and dark. For if it were, how can it be called light? how can it be said to enlighten our eyes, and be a lampe to our feete? And what need haue we to attend to it for direction, and guide∣ance in a darke place, if it were not a shining light vnto such as attend vnto it?
