1 Compare the English translation of 1533: For holy Basilius to such pastime exhortcth young men whom he himself had induced to the conversation of Christian men. And our Augustine calleth back again his friend Licentius to pass the time with the Muses; neither Jerome repeutcth himself that he hath loved a woman taken prisoner in war. Cyprian is commended because he garnished the temple of God with the spoils of the Egyptians.

2 Translation of 1533: These sciences fashion and quicken a child's wit and maketh him apt aforchand marvelously to the understanding of Holy Scripture, whereunto suddenly and irreverently to presume with hands and feet unwashed is in a manner a certain kind of sacrilege.
