<p>Before the comming of Christ, the Pagans and heathen Gentiles had the truth of the mysterie of the trinitie reuealed vnto them, as it was prophesied of the God of the Sa- bines, whom they called Sanctum Fidium holy, and trustie, and Semipater halfe a father. They carried him into the citie, affirming that hee consisted of three names, when in deede he was but one. And although there was a temple consecrate to that trini- <pb n="embmne_pae1591_fac163"/> tie on Quirinall hill, yet carried it the name but of one onelie. And of such great estima- tion was that threefold image, that in al ages it had the soueraigntie, where vnder was figu- red the trinitie of the Godhead in one vnitie, towit, Deus fidius, which was the middest God. Thus the nation of the Sabins was most religious, and therefore haue they purchased them a name accordingly. Neither is it to be doubted, but that the olde Gentiles to whom religion was more acceptable, had greater light and knowledge of the true faith. </p>
