When one is thirty years old, so hath he as yet Stultitias carnales; yea, also Stultitias spirituales; yet it is much to be admired that, in such our imbecility and weakness, we achieve and accomplish so much and such great matters; but it is God that giveth it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
