Romans1:21

Verſe 21. Neither were thankefull] How then ſhall we anſwer to God our hatefull unthankfulneſſe, which is (ſaith one) a monſter in nature, a ſoleciſme in manners, a paradox in divinity, a parching winde to damme up the fountain of divine favours.

But became vain in their imaginations] Gr. [non-Latin text not transcribed]. In their reaſonings, diſputations, diſcourſes upon ſerious deliberation. They ſtood not to their own principles (as, That there is one God only, That this God is to be worſhipped, &c.) but were Atheiſts by night that worſhipped the Sun, and Atheiſts by day that worſhipped the Moon, as Cyril ſaith wittily.
