EMBLEME 23.
Religion still its owne, cannot be lost,Nor from it selfe diuorc'd, though to the most,
Who iudge by guesse and slight formality,
There might appeare schisme in Diuinity:
When not Diuinity, which cannot change,
But humane reason to schismes vild doth range:
For so the fruites of diuers plants may seeme
Diuers in quality: and men may deeme
Nature hath err'd in such a serious course,
When both consider'd be the same in force.
You, that best iudge of Schismes, can clearely see,
Error term'd Truth, and Truth term'd Heresie.
