Therefore, as Apollo being demanded by the Athenians, which Religion was the best? Answered, the ancientest; and a second time, which was the ancientest? replyed that that was best? So say I of Cities, which is the best? the Ancientest: Which is the ancientest? the best: For antiquity, is to be measured by goodnesse, not goodnesse by antiquity, else might youthinke well of the Deuill, he can pleadage, an olde Serpent, a Lier from the beginning. |
