Excerpt from Answers Stapleton's Fortress Overthrown: A Rejoinder to Martiall's Reply

The editor has not considered it necessary to cancel the note in page 45, in which, though he correctly attributed The Defence of the truth to Bishop Jewel, yet he erred in identifying it with the Apology. For his first acquaintance with the tract in question he is indebted to the Rev. Dr. Jelf, whose valuable edition of Bp. Jewel's works was published since this note was written. (See vol. iv. p. 201: v. 62. ) The volume sought for is marked in the Bodleian "8°. C. 322. Linc.", and the title-page of the former portion is as follows: "An Apo-logie of private Masse, spred abroade in writing without name of Authour: as it seemeth, against the offer and protestacion made in certayne Sermons by the reverent father Bisshop of Salsburie: with an answer to the same Apologie, set foorth for the maintenance and defence of the trueth. Perused and allowed by the Reverent father in God, Edmond, Bishop of London, accordyng to the order appointed by the Queenes Maiestie." - The title-page of the work in reply, as far as it can now be read, is, "An Answere in defence of the truth. Againste the Apologie of" Fulke has given the passage in a compressed form; but Stapleton had cited it at length, and it is thus in the original: "There lacked not gods promisses amonge the Iewes. There lacked not succession of bishops and pristes. There lacked not opinion of great holi-nessc and austeritie of life. There lacked not great skil and knowledge of the law of god: And yet it is moste evident that they erred; that they refused the trueth; that, under the name and gay shewe of the church, in very deede they persecuted the church. Why shal we not thinke that the like may bee in this time?"
