I say again, Let no man think me a fool; if otherwise, yet as a fool receive me, that I may boast myself a little.
Ver. 16. Let no man think me] There was never man, nor action, but was subject to variety of censures and misconstructions, foolish men daring to reprehend that which they do not comprehend. I like St Augustine's resolution in this case. Non curo illos censores, qui vel non intelllgendo reprehendunt, vel reprehendendo non intelligunt.
