Campion and Duraeus amplify the calumny
Campion: even the regenerate are mere corruption within; grace is only God's favor outside us.
Duraeus: Calvin denies interior renovation even of the blessed.
Latin
II. Similiter Campianus, Rat. 8. de Protestantibus loquens, Docent, inquit, ne renatos quidem & sanctos quenquam esse aliud intrinsecus nisi meram corruptionem & contagionem. Et paulo post, Praeclaram isti partem assignant gratiae, quam neque in-fusam cordibus nostris, neque ad resistendum sceleribus validam esse latrant; sed extra nos in solo Dei favore collocant, qui favor non emendet impios, sed veterem istam sen-tinam adhuc manentem & foetentem, ne deformis & odiosa putetur, Deo connivente, dissimulet. Quibus audacius adhuc clamitans Duraeus, Minime miror, inquit, Cal-vinum nullam in nobis interioris hominis renovationem agnoscere, cum beatos ipsos sce-leribus suis, etiam in beatissimis illis sedibus, perpetuo esse contaminatos existimet. Rat. 8.
