Well done for your mighty wisdom! By the rules of a new method of argument first invented by you, you embrace conclusions by denying their premises, and assemble bodies severed from their heads. We do not envy your subtleties. Rather, with Christian kindness we pity you: you have found an ending worthy of your doctrine, departing from accusations against the innocent and arriving at nothing.
Latin
Macte virtute sapientiae, qui novae et a te inventae primum disputationis regulis, secunda primorum negatione complecteris, et corpora capitibus trunca componis. Non invidemus subtilitatibus tuis; quin immo christiana humanitate miseramur, quod dignum reperisti exitum dogmati tuo, ut profectus a criminibus innocentum, ad nihilum pervenires.
