Matthew26:25
Verse 25. Master, is it I?] Desperate impudency! debauched hypocrisie! Had he the face to ask such a question? He could not but know that Christ knew all: yet hoped he perhaps, that of his wonted gentlenesse, he would conceal him still, as he had done for certain daies before. But incorrigible and incurable persons are no longer to be born with. He heareth therefore, Thou [illegible: 1 word] res est [illegible: 1 word], [illegible: 1 word], stolidos, impudentes [illegible: 1 word] pro [illegible: 1 word], & daemones ex [illegible: 2 words]. Chrys. hast said it: that is, Thou art the man I mean. Thus Christ pulls of his vizour, washeth off his varnish, and maketh him to appear in his own colours, a covetous caytiffe, an impudent dog, a breathing devil, as Chrysostom hath it.
