On Beza
George Gillespie
English Popish Ceremonies (1637), pt. 2, ch. 4, p. 21
“…he [Saravia] says he could have wished that Beza had not generally condemned all ceremonies without making any difference.
Answer: Neither Beza, nor any other who mislike the English ceremonies, condemns such rites and circumstances in the external worship of God and serve only for decency; but those sacred and significant ceremonies which admonish men of their duty are not of this sort.”
