Reason II.

Every numerous Body of men, how holy and sublime soever the order of them may be, contains a deal of Ignorance, and is a source abounding with a spawning of pas∣sions,* 1.1 mi è noto che in ogni ordine numeroso di persone benche sacrosanto e sublime, talora si addensa molta ignoranza ed alligna molta pas∣sione. Though they be Bishops which com∣pose Councils, yea, though the Bishops were Princes of their Diocesses, though they were Kings thereof. There is a Po∣pulace even among Kings, said the Moral Philosopher very well,* 1.2 e però ben disse il mo∣rale, che si dava il volgo eziandio di Rè. Now the more a Populace assembled is numerous, 'tis manifest, the more Ignorance, and the more passion is there.
