S. Paule when he came to Athens / dyd not thinke skorne so
famyliarlie to behaue him selfe that he went in to the temples
of their Idolls / and verye curiouslie searched the corners of
the same / he dyd viewe their altars / the titles and
inscriptions of ther altars / so that he founde owte that
title / _Ignoto Deo_ which was an altar dedicated vnto the
vnknowen God / wherof he dyd take occacion to make that same hys
sermon in which he preached Christe vnto them euen as yt were
owt of their own bokes.
And thus / I thinke / that this our proposition / (which of yt
owne selfe ys plaine and euident ynoughe) ys sufficientlie
proued. Namelie thys / that a priuate man / learned / and
constaunte in the truithe / beinge in that place where no man ys
compelled to communicate with wicked supersticions / maye be
familiarlie conuersante with the vnbeleuers / so longe as in hys
conuersation he doth obserue and kepe / the conditions before
mencioned.
[[Cõuersation vuith men excõmunicate.]]
Here I thinke good to adde / as yt were by the waye of
admonicion / that kepinge these rules and conditions / yt ys
lawfull for the godlie to be conuersaunte with them which be
excommunicate / euen to call them in to the waye of godlynes /
and not to communicate with them in any euill or synne.
[[The secũd proposition.]]
Nowe will I put forthe an other proposition or sentence / whiche
shalbe of those persons whych be of a priuate estate and are
subiectes / of that cohabitacion which ys fre wher no man is
compelled to communicate with wicked supersticions / ãd of suche
men as be vnlearned in the knowledge of gods truithe / weake in
faythe / and therfor vnable to make a christian confession of
truithe. Thys collection agreeth with that which I gathered
before / of which I made my former proposition / sauinge that
wheras there / with the priuate estate and free dwellinge
