Non sinam(2) Angelo de mea doctria iudicare: I will not suffer the Angells to iudge of my doctrine. And a∣gaine: Gods(3) Work maketh for me, in so much that I regard not if a thousand Aus•••••••• a thousand Cyprians stood against me. Luther vaunteth himselfe to be Christ disciple; But where do we find Christs words to be in the lowest degree verified in him, Mitis(4) sa••••, & umilis cerde?
