What
coude
haue
been
spoken
(
I
praye
you
)
in

waighty
a
mater
more
briefly
?
or
coude
haue
ben
sayd
playnelier
and
more
fullye
&
ꝑfetly
?
I
thinke
there
can
noman
this
taught
in
this
heuenly
philosophie
require
any
more
Nether
any
other
wyse
or
by
other
meanes
did
he
instructe
the
woman
of
Samarye
at
the
well
/
but
that
he
semeth
there
to
haue
vsed
a
more
compendiouse
briefnes
.
Here
folowe
all
the
Sacraments
that
Christe
delyuered
to
his
chirche
.
Now
as
towching
the
sacraments
/
very
fewe
they
were
which
the
Lorde
commytted
vnto
his
chirche
/
euen
onely
these
tweyne
/
baptisme
and
the
signe
or
remembraunce
of
his
body
and
blode
.
For
as
for
Iohn
his
baptisme
/
he
dyspiced
it
not
/
but
with
the
s●●e
himselfe
was
sanctified
.
And
eftesone
after
he
sending
his
disciples
into
all
the
worlde
to
preache
his
gospell
and
to
declare
it
vnto
all
nacions
and
gentyles
sayd
.
See
that
ye
be
going
to
teache
all
the
gentyles
or
nacions
/
who
soeuer
thei
be
/
baptising
them
in
to
the
name
of
the
father
/
the
sone
/
&
the
holy
gost
.
In
which
institucion
thou
shalt
neuer
fynde
any
thing
ether
harde
or
heuye
or
not
playnly
spoken
and
expressed
.
And
as
for
himself
whiles
he
lyued
vpon
the
erth
and
layd
forth
the
holsome
preching
of
the
gospell
/
baptysed
noman
/
but
his
disciples
he
commanded
to
baptise
.
For
the
worde
of
god
is
more
beter
and
more
preciouse
then
the
sacrmentes
yea
/
and
faith
its
elfe
is
more
noble
then
the
sacramentes
.
When
owr
Lorde
Christe
had
delyuered
this
doctryne
concerning
the
christen
religion
/
and
the
discipline
of
the
sacramentes
priuatly
to
his
disciples
and
openly
to
all
men
dispersed
thorowe
Galyle
and
Iewrye
/
and
also
after
that
he
had
purged
by
his
innocent
dethe
on
the
crosse
the
sinnes
of
the
hole
world
:
But
now
/
lest
any
man
shuld
doute
of
these
thingis
/
we
wyll
gladlye
also
gather
agene
togither
into
a
some
/
what
thingis
the
apostles
aftir
thei
receyued
the
holy
gost
gaue
&
deliuerd
to
the
chirchis
to
be
obserued
.
Nowe
of
the
.xiij.
chap.
of
the
actes
&
.xv.
ca.
is
it
manyfest
/
that
nether
Paul
himself
the
apostle
taught
ether
other
thingis
/
or
moo
/
or
not
the
same
to
the
chirches
of
the
gentyles
.
But
in
his
pistles
right
diligently
he
declareth
all
faitfull
/
in
christe
to
haue
and
fynde
all
thingis
which
ar
necessary
vnto
the
very
saluacion
and
perfeccion
of
christes
religion
/
nor
to
nede
any
other
meanes
els
besydes
Christe
or
with
christe
to
lyue
blessedly
.
For
euen
in
the
pistle
to
the
philippians
.
The
things
which
once
were
lucre
and
plesaunte
to
me
(
he
sayth
)
I
nowe
knowe
the
same
for
christis
sake
to
be
hurte
and
hindrance
to
me
yea
I
knowe
now
all
things
to
be
damage
/
for
that
excellent
knowleges
sake
of
Chryst
Iesu
my
lorde
/
for
whose
sake
I
reputed
all
thinges
to
be
hurtfull
and
damage
and
estemed
and
reputed
them
for
dunge
and
dyrte
/
that
I
my self
might
get
christe
for
my
lucre
and
aduauntage
and
that
I
might
be
founde
in
him
/
hauing
not
my
nowne
rightwysnes
out
of
the
lawe
and
good
workis
/
but
that
same
rightwysnes
whiche
is
thorow
the
faith
of
christe
.
And
for
this
cause
he
euery
where
exhorteth
almen
vnto
the
faith
into
owr
lorde
Iesu
/
with
the
which
faith
also
he
commendeth
and
setteth
forth
as
the
frutes
of
faith
/
as
innocency
of
lyuing
/
charite
and
also
feruent
prayers
vnto
the
Lorde
.
And
this
apostle
baptized
as
the
Lorde
had
commaunded
him
/
althowgh
he
confesseth
himselfe
in
the
mean
ceason
/
very
fewe
or
non
to
haue
baptized
.
But
/
mennis
testimonies
left
/
let
vs
return
to
the
wittnesses
of
god
/
and
agene
to
the
testimonies
of
the
most
excellent
apostles
Peter
Ihon
and
Paul
/
whom
I
shall
yet
more
largelye
allege
/
that
in
the
mouthe
of
.ij.
or
iij.
this
inuicte
verite
/
that
is
to
weit
/
that
in
these
fewe
poyntis
and
principals
in
nowmber
/
the
chirch
be
made
perfit
/
might
be
affirmed
the
fastlyer
and
the
stronglyer
proued
.
For
Peter
after
that
he
hade
put
forth
a
certayn
fewe
doctrynes
&
precepts
of
the
faith
/
charite
/
pacience
and
beneficence
/
and
had
exhorted
the
godly
to
expresse
them
in
holy
workes
:
a
non
he
addeth
.
These
thinges
if
ye
do
:
ye
shal
not
slyde
at
any
tyme
.
For
verely
by
this
maner
shall
the
entrese
into
the
eternall
kingdom
of
owr
Lorde
&
sauiour
christe
Iesu
be
aboundantly
ministred
vnto
you
.
But
&
if
he
had
not
beleued
this
kynde
of
doctryne
which
now
we
haue
recyted
/
to
be
sufficient
vnto
that
life
to
be
obtayned
&
for
the
peple
of
god
to
be
made
perfit
/
he
had
neuer
sayd
By
this
maner
or
wayes
aboundantly
(
obserue
the
pithei
waight
of
this
word
Aboundantly
)
shal
th
entres
into
his
kingdom
be
mynistred
vnto
you
.
Then
/
verely
were
not
these
monkisshe
and
fryerlye
odiouse
orders
/
nether
their
vngodly
rules
of
monkis
friers
&c
/
nor
yet
them selues
.
Then
were
there
no
misses
/
no
siche
maner
of
questions
or
tradicions
as
haue
owr
idle
belled
bisshops
and
skolding
scolemen
many
yeres
aftyr
at
laste
dreamed
and
broughte
into
the
chirche
.
And
yet
with
out
these
dead
dreames
(
sayth
S.
Peter
)
Aboundant
and
plentuouse
entresse
by
the
dotrine
of
the
apostles
to
be
layd
open
vnto
all
men
desyeringe
to
com
to
that
lyfe
eternall
.
Saynt
Ihon
in
his

The
thinge
which
ye
haue
herd
from
the
beginnyng
/
abyde
there
in
/
or
let
it
abyde
in
you

If
that
doctrine
whiche
ye
haue
herde
from
the
beginning
abyde
in
you
/
then
shall
you
also
abyde
and
dwell
in
the
sone
&
in
the

.
Lo
/
here
he
promiseth
to
them
a
perfit
and
full
felowship
and
coniunccion
of
the
father
and
of
the
sone
with
those
faithfull
which
continewe
&
abyde
in
that
kynde
of
doctrine
which
th
apostles
from
the
begynning
of
their
prechinge
delyuered
them
.
But
from
that
begining
thei
gaue
them
no
nother
doctrine
then
the
same
which
(
thei
sayd
)
we
haue
herde
.
Wherfore
that
tradicion
muste
be
sufficient
vnto
perfeccion
.
S.
Paul
not
onely
bindeth
the
preacher
of
the
gospell
vnto
the
same
breif
and
simple
playne
kynde
of
doctryne
/
but
besydes
that
/
he
prophecieth
certayne
pestelent
pharisais
and
papistis
to

/
which
(
euen
as
we
now
see
them
)
will
not
heare
that
same
trwth
delyuered
to
the
chirches
/
confessed

confirmed
with
myracles
/
but
will
turne
themselues
vnto
vayne

most
vayne

Furthermore

leste
anyman
complayn

be

/
it
shall
be
necessary
to
expres
some
of
these
thinges
more
at
large
that
it
may
be
manyfest
vnto
almen
/
vs
to
haue
sufficienly
in
these
fewe
principals
/
all
thinges
pertayning
vnto
the

of

Also
the

can
saye
nothing
taken
out
of
the
institucion
of
the
apostles
.
Paul
commandeth
his
chirches
to
synge
in
spirit
and
mynde
.
Wherfore
it
is
sufficient
to
the
iuste
chirche
if
with
trwe
faith
thei
offer
thorow
christe
their
pure
prayers
vnto
the
Lorde
.
As
for
the
Sacraments
S.
Austen
very
godly
and
lernedly
affirmed
very
fewe
to
be
instituted
of
the
Lord
/
euen
Baptisme
and
the
sacrament
of
thankes
geuing
/
the
moste
easyest
sewerly
in
their
obseruacion
and
keping
of
them
/
but
in
sence
and
significacion
moste
noble
and
excellent
.
For
thei
cary
no
greate
coste
with
them
/
nor
yet
no
difficulty
(
I
speke
of
the
apostles
sacramentes
/
and
not
of
the
popishe
sacraments
)
and
in
fewe
wordis
/
thei
haue
no
worldly
shyning
shewes
and
glytering
vayne
glorye
.
For
all
their
vertew
and
strength
consisteth
of
/
and
in
their
institucion
and
significacion
.
The
faithfull
saynts
in
the
congregacion
ar
iustifyed
and
absolued
by
faith
onely
/
and
not
by
sacraments
.
For
sacraments
excercise
and
in
a
maner
excite
and
stere
vp
faith
▪
for
thei
ar
visible
accions
instituted
of
the
lorde
/
to
the
entent
he
might
represent
vnto
vs
his
mysteries
and
giftis
/
and
so
testifye
towarde
vs
his
good
wille
/
exrercise
and
whett
owr
faith
/
gather
and
binde
vs
to gither
into
owr
religion
/
and
to
admonisshe
vs
of
owr
offyce
.
As
ye
may
see
in
Baptisme
For
that
representeth
vnto
vs
that
it
is
he
onely
which
wassheth
vs
from
owr
synnes
/
by
it
witnessing
that
he
fauoureth
vs
/
yea
&
that
he
will
be
owr
god
one
alone
for
vs
all
sufficient
.
Howe
oft
so
euer
baptisme
is
geuen
in
the
congregacion
/
the
faith
of
holy
men
is
excercised
.
Besides
that
it
gathereth
and
bringeth
vs
togither
vtwardly
into
his
peple
/
&
warneth
vs
to
mortifye
&
slaye
owr
carnall
affectes
/
that
dayly
we
mought
dye
with
the
Lorde
and
ryse
agene
with
him
into
a
newe
life
.
Agene
/
in
the
Souper
of
the
lorde
/
it
is
signified
that
the
bodye
and
blode
of
owr
lorde
ar
spent
and
laid
forth
for
vs
in
the
crosse
to
satisfye
owr
fathers
iustice
/
and
gyue
more
life
to
the
beleuers
.
Wherfore
/
when
the
brede
is
raught
vnto
vs
/
which
brede
the
lorde
called
as
it
were
in
signe
and
token
or
aftir
the
similitude
and
aftir
the
maner
of
speking
appropriated
to
sacraments
/
his
bodye
a
manifest
token
is
geuen
/
that
the
Lord
offred
himself
all
whol
vnto
vs
that
we
mought
haue
owr
fruicion
and
sighte
of
him
in
faith
.
And
thus
owr
faith
is
excercised
in
that
mystyk
accion
.
And
as
out
of
many
graynis
one
loffe
is
made
/
&
of
manye
grapes
the
liquor
of
wyne
floweth
forth
:
euen
so
ar
we
monisshed
of
mutuall
loue
in
the
percepcion
and
receiuinge
of
the
signes
and
sacramentes
/
and
that
with
Christe
and
emong
owr
owne
selues
we
be
made
one
bodye
/
and
to
geue
thankis
to
christe
owr
deliuerer
.
This
is
dowtles
the
vse
and
forme
of
the
sacraments
/
hauing
nothinge
which
hitherto
hath
not
bene
proposed
and
setforth
in
the
doctrine
of
the
gospell
/
saue
that
it
hath
pleased
the
Lorde
for
our
infirmite
to
haue
to
do
with
vs
according
to
owr
capacite
by
these
signes
sacramentals
as
it
were
with
visible
wordes
:
and
in
a
maner
to
laye
before
owr
eyes
the
moste
greate
and
excellente
thingis
/
that
thei
mought
be
the
more
commended
praysed
and
accepted
of
euerye
christen
man
:
and
so
by
the
one
sacrament
to
iniciate
and
professe
(
as
they
saye
)
the
faithfull
/
oute
of
whose
felowship
he
excluded
not
euen
the
infantes
.
And
by
the
tother
sacrament
for
the
waren
peple
to
retayn
in
memorye
the
deathe
of
the
sone
of
God
.
And
thus
ye
see
it
moste
manifeste
/
the
vse
of
the
sacraments
to
be
moste
playn
and
single
moste
holsome
and
most
full
of
the
most
swetest
frutes
.
Whiche
vse
many
make
it
more
than
ingrate
and
vnthankfull
/
by
those
their
thornye
spinose
disputacions
fonde
questions
and
withe
their
skoldinge
cauillacions
and
sophisticall
besye
brawlynges
.
Of
these
thingis
hitherto
writen
(
I
suppose
)
euery
reader
perceiueth
/
that
we
which
glorie
&
reioyce
in
the
gospell
&
name
of
christe
/
haue
in
fewe
principales
shewed
all
thingis
which
perteyne
vnto
the
full
perfeccion
of
the
chirche
/
&
therfore
owr
lorde
with
these
fewe
in
no
wise
to
haue
onerated
his
chirche
.
For
these
fewe
things
/
albeit
of
their
nature
thei
be
the
moste
diuyne
and
incomprehensyble
/
yet
vnto
the
faithfull
ar
thei
the
moste
easye
and
moste
iocunde
and
ioyfull
in
th
obseruacion
and
in
the
keping
of
them
.
Wherfore
/
what
soeuer
coste
/
what
charge
and
burdens
the
congregacions
this
daye
sustayne
:
with
what
soeuer
lawes
rytes
ceremonies
tradicions
of
men
/
apere
thei
neuer
so
comelye
and
decent
(
as
thei
saye
)
with
what
and
how
many
soeuer
decrees
and
disputacions
the
congregacions
be
yet
snarled
combred
and
clogged
/
nether
of
the
Lorde
/
nor
of
the
apostles
/
nor
of
non
apostelyk
men
haue
thei
receiued
them
/
but
of
the
euill
idle
bellye
burdens
of
the
erthe
/
of
the
supersticiouse
papistes
/
and
of
these
couetuouse
preistes
and
greadye
bisshops
/
which
as
thei
haue
hitherto
ben
euer
in
lerning
and
neuer
comen
to
the
knowelege
of
the
trweth
/
euen
so
playnlye
haue
they
thought
and
made
godlynes
to
be
lucre
and
to
serue
their
insaciable
lustes
:
of
whom
the
apostle
wrytinge
to
Timothe
/
sayth
.
Auoid
from
these
persons
which
be
of
siche
couetuouse
condicions
and
abhominable
lyuinge
.
Cast
of
therfore
(
oh
christen
reder
)
these
their
importable
burdens
of
heuey
vnprofitfble
supersticiouse
ceremonies
/
whiche
to
ease
you
thei
will
not
once
put
forthe
their
fynger
to
bere
them
their selues
/
which
burdens
in
that
(
as
Paul
sayth
)
thei
punisshe
the
bodye
/
thei
apere
to
haue
some
vtwarde
holynes
/
&
yet
ar
thei
with
out
all
honour
&
godlines
/

their
