CHristus afferens medicinam, quae corrup∣tissimos mores sanatura esset, miraculis cō∣ciliauit authoritatem, authoritate meruit fi∣dem, fide contraxit mulitudinem, multitudine obtinuit vetustatem, vetustate roborauit Religi∣onem, quam non solum Haereticorum ineptissi∣ma nouitas fraudibus agens, sed nec Gentium
quidem veternosus error violenter aduersans, a∣liqua ex parte conuelleret. Christ bringing a me∣dicine, to heale maners most corrupt: by miracles did gette authority, by authority found credit, by credit drew together a multitude, by a multitude obtained antiquity, (for many liue long: one, or few, die quick∣ly) by antiquity fortified a Religion which not onlie the most fond new rising of Heretikes practising by de∣ceitfull wiles, but neither the drowsie old orror of the very Heathens setting against with violence, might in any peece shake and cast downe.
