And Credulity, because men love to be hearkened unto in company, disposeth them to lying: so that Ignorance it selfe without Malice, is able to make a man bothe to believe lyes, and tell them; and sometimes also to invent them. Curiosity To Know, From Care Of Future Time
VINCENT: Forsooth, good uncle, God disposeth and timeth your matter and your dinner both, I trust. ANTHONY: Well, cousin, now will we say grace.

And lastly, to say he spake by the Holy Spirit, as it signifieth the graces, or gifts of the Holy Spirit, is to attribute nothing to him supernaturall.
