BEING A HISTORY OF THEIR FELLOW-WORK.

BY
FREDERIC SEEBOHM.

‘Tu interea patienter audi; ac nos ambo, collidentibus inter se silicibus, si quis ignis excutiatur, eum avide apprehendamus. Veritatem enim quÆrimus, non opinionis offensionem....’ (Colet, Eras. Op. v. p. 1292).

‘Take no heed what thing many men do, but what thing the very law of nature, what thing very reason, what thing Our Lord himself showeth thee to be done’ (Pico della Mirandola, translated by More: More’s English Works, p. 13).

‘Cur sic arctamus Christi professionem quam Ille latissime volnit patere?’ (Erasmus, Letter to Volzius, prefixed to the ‘Enchiridion’).
