wisedome, governement; but especially for his wor∣thy care, and loue to you, beeing a speciall meanes to bring you into that Colledge. Of God the Psalmist testifieth, that he setteth vp one, and putteth downe ano∣ther: but that you shoulde so presume to extoll one Doctor, and disgrace another, I do beleeue you vvill much blame your selfe vpon due examination. Your scoffing at Doctor Hutton is senselesse and gracelesse: the most learned, reverend, and ancient here, will testi∣fie against your greasie scoffe, that his young yeeres were beautified with al kinde of learning, in which he was eminent, his middle yeeres with all ingenuity in iudgement, his reverend yeeres with great wisdome in government. Therefore forbeare scornes. Concer∣ning S. Gregorie, we are willing to giue him whatsoe∣ver he deserveth: but it is very Hyperbolicall and vndis∣creet in you, to affirme, that none of the latter should be like him, none of the former. Comparisons are e∣ver odious, and dangerous. And yet we could be cō∣tent to afford S. Gregory that attribute of greatnesse, which Alexāder had in Greece, Pompey in Rome, Arsaces in Parthia, and Charles in France: but to giue him so many Titles as Eusebius records that Galerius had, Pō∣tifex Maximus, Thebaicus Maximus, Sarmaticus Ma∣ximus, Quinquies Persarum Maximus, &c: the grea∣test Bishop, greatest in Thebes, greatest in Sarmatia, in Persia fiue times greatest, greatest in Germany, grea∣test in Aegypt, to giue so many titles of greatnesse to your Gregory, is to make him a monster. That hee should exceede S. Anthony, S. Cyprian, S. Austin; all that know their storie, will deny. Anthony not worthy to be cōpared with Austine: nor Gregory with Cyprian,
