Annotatio I: Spanheim's rubric on controversies with Augsburg-Confession theologians asks three questions
ANNOTATION I. On the Augsburg Confession and its theologians and associates — keyed to these words of the Author's rubric:
Chief Controversies with the theologians of the Augsburg Confession, as they are called.
§. I. That rubric of our celebrated Author, by which he titles the Protestant Controversies, bids us press three inquiries, or settle them more sharply:
[I.] What the Augsburg Confession is, and of what kind.
[II.] Who count as its theologians, and who as its confessors or associates at large?
[III.] In what sense some men, ahead of others, are called Augsburg-Confession theologians — or rather have grown used, not without spleen, to calling themselves so, and still do.
Latin
ANNOTATIO I. De Augustana Confessione hujusque Theologis ac Sociis, ad haec Rubricae Auctoris verba: Praecipuae Controversiae cum Augustanae Confessionis, ut vocantur, Theologis. §. I. Rubrica Auctoris nostri celeberrimi, quâ Controversias Protestanticas inscribit, Tria admodum nos inquirere jubet distinctiùsve determinare [I.] Quid & qua sit Augustana Confessio. [II.] Quinam Confessionis istius tam Theologi, quam Confessores seu Socii promiscuè? [III.] Quô Sensu nonnulli, prae aliis, Confessionis Augustanae Theologi vocitentur, vel se potiùs ipsos, non sine stomacho, vocitare consueverint & hodienum consuescant.
