whatsoever_o §_o 18._o in_o all_o my_o life_n i_o never_o see_v a_o more_o happy_a wit_n and_o thence_o it_o come_v that_o he_o be_v exceed_o please_v with_o such_o wit_n as_o be_v like_o himself_o

the_o second_o particular_a his_o opinion_n much_o differ_v in_o they_o from_o the_o vulgar_a the_o scotist_n of_o who_o acuteness_n most_o man_n have_v a_o high_a conceit_n he_o esteem_v heavy_a

pollute_v all_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n with_o so_o much_o of_o his_o own_o profane_a philosophy_n i_o wonder_v at_o the_o enthusiastic_a posture_n of_o the_o man_n and_o after_o that_o set_v

according_a to_o it_o yet_o his_o desire_n be_v to_o have_v disengage_v himself_o from_o the_o world_n and_o betake_v himself_o to_o a_o monastery_n if_o he_o can_v any_o where_n have_v find_v a_o society_n that_o be_v true_o and_o unanimous_o resolve_v upon_o a_o evangelical_n life_n and_o when_o i_o go_v into_o italy_n he_o charge_v i_o to_o seek_v for_o such_o a_o one_o tell_v i_o that_o he_o have_v find_v some_o monk_n there_o who_o be_v real_o prudent_a and_o pious_a commend_v also_o some_o german_n among_o who_o he_o think_v that_o the_o footstep_n of_o the_o good_a old_a religion_n do_v still_o remain_v §_o 21._o though_o he_o live_v very_o chaste_o himself_o yet_o he_o have_v a_o very_a charitable_a opinion_n of_o those_o priest_n and_o monk_n who_o have_v no_o other_o crime_n but_o venery_n not_o that_o he_o do_v not_o hearty_o abhor_v the_o sin_n but_o because_o he_o find_v such_o man_n far_o less_o mischievous_a than_o other_o if_o compare_v who_o be_v

other_o by_o acknowledge_v their_o infirmity_n be_v make_v more_o humble_a and_o modest_a he_o say_v that_o to_o be_v covetous_a and_o proud_a be_v more_o abominable_a in_o a_o priest_n then_o to_o have_v a_o hundred_o concubine_n not_o that_o he_o think_v incontinence_n to_o be_v a_o light_a sin_n but_o covetousness_n and_o pride_n to_o be_v at_o a_o great_a distance_n from_o true_a piety_n and_o he_o be_v not_o more_o averse_a to_o any_o sort_n of_o man_n than_o such_o bishop_n who_o be_v wolf_n in_o slead_v of_o shepherd_n and_o commend_v themselves_o by_o external_a service_n of_o

give_v occasion_n to_o this_o suspicion_n §_o 22_o he_o say_v that_o the_o college_n in_o england_n which_o be_v large_a and_o stately_a hindergood_n literature_n and_o be_v receptacle_n of_o idle_a

whereas_o it_o be_v the_o custom_n in_o england_n for_o priest_n to_o consecrate_v the_o host_n and_o receive_v it_o almost_o every_o day_n he_o be_v content_a to_o sacrifice_v on_o sunday_n and_o

of_o his_o cathedral_n or_o because_o he_o find_v that_o his_o devotion_n have_v a_o great_a edge_n when_o it_o be_v sharpen_v with_o interval_n and_o yet_o he_o will_v not_o condemn_v they_o who_o
