As thoCe little Foxes which lye hid under ground 
do moil mifehief to the Vines, thus the greatell 
Enemies of the Church lye in her very bofome, 
for the Church in all ages hath been like ]ofeph^ 
fold by her own Brethren, and like Sampfon be- 
trayed by his own Wife ; thus ChrlH- was betray- 
ed into the hands of his Enemies by his own Diici- 
ple> ; thus the Church chiefly fuffereth by thofe 
men that are maintained by her, as ]ofeph prefer- 
ved the life of his Brethren that deflroyed him* 
and no lefs doth it fufFer from thofe men whom ic 
deiendeth, and who know all her fecrets ; fo Juias 
knew the Garden where Christ was wont to pray^ 
And as Foxes by their craftinefs do great mifehief 
to Vines and Gardens, fo th& Church ntXQt fuffer- 
eth more than from fubtilty of arguments, by which 
young men are eaflly deceived, not being able to' 
I perceive tht fallacy of them ; We might iliuflrate 
; this by the example of feveral Hereticks in all 
I ages, who have ufed all wiles zni Stratagems to de- 
ceive; and as have feveral waies to their 
holes, fo do wicked men turn and wind themfdves’ 
; al waies to deceive; and as the Fox, if he be necef- 
I fitated to ic by hunger, will feetn to be tame, fo do’ 
ithefe deceivers feem to imitate the true Church;- 
an eminent inflance of this we have in Eccleflafti-.
