Book II, 92: On PAVL and APOLLOS
From Divine Fancies (1633), Book II
Religion
Tis not, what this man, or what that man saith,
Brings the least stone, toth'building of my faith;
My eare may ramble, but my Conscience followes
No man: I'me neither Pauls, nor yet Apollo's:
When Scripture gold lyes by me, is it just
To take up my Salvation, upon Trust?
My Faith shall be confin'd to no mans Lists;
Ile onely follow Paul, as Paul is Christs.
