To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Leaving the friars prostrate, " Moria " sets on other victims, and gives a turn to princes and courtiers ; but apparently she finds less to laugh at in the laity, and goes back to give another toss with the horn to the Church and the Church's special representatives — popes, cardinals, bishops. Their splendour and 134 Life and Letters of Erasmus.
worldliness are mocked at, and contrasted with the simplicity of the Galilean fishermen. Priestly and monastic absurdity of ignorance comes next.
I wa...s lately (says Moria) at a theological discus- sion. I am often present, indeed, on such occasions.
Someone asked what authority there was in Scripture for burning heretics. A sour-looking old man said that St. Paul had specially ordered it, and being asked where, answered in a voice of thunder, " Haeret- icum hominem, post unam et secundam correptionem devita." The audience stared, wondering what he meant. He explained that de vita meant de vita tol- lere — to put away out of life. We all laughed, and a friend of the old man covered the blunder by pro- ducing " Maleficos non patieris vivere." Every heretic is maleficus, he said, and therefore must not be suf- fered to live.
