En une place vit. I. fumier reverser;
Mahomes si colcha, ne s’en volt trestorner:
Là l’estranglèrent porc, si com j’oï conter;
Por ce ne volt juis de char de porc goster.
Vv. 5547 et seq. (Paris, 1860).

[233] “As a sample of the controversial works of the theologians of the Reformed Church on this subject,” Mr. R. B. Smith in his interesting work on Mohammed and Mohammedanism, p. 79 (London, 1876), calls attention to “the following modest title-page of a ponderous work written in 1666: Anti-Christus Mahometes: ubi non solum per Sanctam Scripturam, ac Reformatorum testimonia, verum etiam per omnes alios probandi modos et genera, plene, fuse, imvicte solideque demonstratur Mahometem esse unum illum verum, magnum de quo in Sacris fit mentio, Antichristum.”

[236] “Quod vero dissimulandum non est, licet quidam docte, satis solideque scripserint, nonnulli ex rerum Sarracenicarum ignorantia, vera plerumque omittentes, ficta ac fabulosa in medium protulerunt, quæ Mahumetanis risus excitarent eosque in errore suo obstinatiores efficerent.” Alcorani Textus Universus, Tom. I, p. 1 (Patavii, 1698).
