In so much that M. Abraham Hartwell in his Epistle there to the Reader post medium confesseth that this conversion of Congo was accomplished by massing Priests and after the Romish manner and this action saith he which tendeth to the glory of God shall it be concealed and not committed to memory because it was performed by Popish Priests and Popish means God forbid In like manner M.

Paul where yet to this day saith the Commentary it remaineth free from corruption witness whereof saith that treatise are all the inhabitants of that City and travailers that repair thither and the truth hereof for matter of fact is so probable that M. Whitaker lib. de Ecclesia contra Bellarminum pag. 353. dare not in his answer thereto altogether rest in deniall of the matter of fact but saith Ne putet Bellarminus me omninò haec miracula contemnere Respondeo fieri posse ut in regno Pontificio fuerint hujusmodi miracula nunc sint and pag. 354. post med he saith potuit diabolus Xaverii corpus ad tempus servare incorruptum suaviter olens And so he not so much denieth those Miracles as over boldry referreth them to the Devils works Whereas yet to the contrary M.
