A synopsis, or compendium of the Fathers
Subtitle: Or of the most famous and ancient doctors of the church, as also of the schoole-men. Wherein is cleerely shewed, how much is to be attributed to them, in what severall times they lived, with what cantion [sic] they are to be read, and which were their perfections, which their errors. A treatise most necessary and profitable to yong divines, and delightfull to all such whose studies in humanity take from them the leisure, though not the desire of reading the Fathers, whose curiositie this briefe survey of antiquity will in part satisfie.
