Wherfore

it
profiteth
to
put

in

There
be
verely
in

many

Firste
think
you
thus
of
the
hole
boke
.
That
the
story
of
Daniel
is
a
testimony
of
the
preseruacion
of
the
chirche
beutified
with
great
glory
/
euen
then
when
it
semeth
almost
extincte
and
destroid
.
It
techeth
vs
therfor
the
chirche
bothe
to
be
chastised
and
skourged
/
and
anon
aftir
hir
crosse
/
to
be
restored
to
glori
.
It
testifieth
also
the
chirche
/
not
by
manis
counsel
/
powre
/
strength
/
ordinances
/
noractis
/
but
by
the
sin
helpe
of
god
/
euen
from
the
begining
to
this
daye
/
to
be
defended
,
preserued
and
encreaced
.
It
putteth
vs
also
in
mynd
of
the
promises
of
god
to
be
performed
to
hys
chirche
/
although
it
be
done
aftir
a nother
waye
then
we
can
conceiue
.
As
when
it
was
promised
to
the
tribe
of
Iuda
,
The
scepter
nor
teacher
to
be
taken
awaye
from
it
vntil
that
sauiour
Sylo
come
:
wher
of
the
kinges
of
Iuda
were
so
bolde
/
that
they
so
oft
rebelling
/
moste
proudly
and
cruelly
they
resisted
and
dampned
the
prechinge
of
Ieremye
concerninge
the
destruccion
of
their
cite
temple
/
and
kingdom
.
As
wold
nowe
men
resiste
and
destroye
him
that
shuld
preache
to
emprours
and
to
kinges
saing
.
Excepte
ye
repent
and
receiue
the
gospell
nowe
offred
you
/
the
turke
shall
destroye
all
cristendom
.
But
Ieremy
knew
full
w●ll
these
thinges
bothe
to
come
to
passe
/
that
the
peple
of
god
shuld
be
chastised
by
an
haithen
king
/
and
yet
at
that
tyme
/
nether
the
regale
famylie
nor
the
stok
of
Iuda
to
be
extincted
nor
the
trwe
prophets
to
fayle
&
b●wanted
.
And
euen
so
it
came
to
passe
beyond
al
menis
expectacion
/
when
fewe
or
non
knew
therof
.
For
the
kingly
stok
euen
in
the
babylon●
captiuite
had
their
honor
/
where
god
stered
vp
prophets
and
orned
his
chirche
with
great
glory
,
yea
and
euen
the
haithen
gentiles
did
he
adioyne
vnto
the
felowship
of
his
owne
chirche
/
so
that
there
was
then
a
gloriouse
conuersion
of
the
haithen
vnto
God
/
as
I
praye
God
there
may
be
of
the
turkes

iewes
once
vnto
owr
trewe
cristen

Secondarily
ye
shal
obserue
the
testimonis
of
Messias
owr
king
Cryste
.
For
as
the
other
prophets
were
cheifly
stered
vp
that
by
them
the
promises
of
Cryste
shuld
be
spred
the
wyder
/
euen
so
it
behoued
Daniel
to
do
the
same
office
:
and
that
bi
many
wais
/
and
in
many
visions
.
For
he
prohecyed
of
his
birth
telling
the
yere
and
tyme
therof
/
and
of
his
passion
a●
certenly
and
iustely

as
did
Iohan
Baptist
poynt
himforth
withe

/
euen
whyles
yet
the
comonweale
of
the

shulden

Cryste
shuld
be
borne
and
suffer
/
and
also
when
their
ceremoniall
shawdews
&
sacrifices
all
shuld
ceasse
.
Thirdely
ye
shal
note
the
order
/
of
the.
4.
Monarchies
/
which
order
is
here
expressed
/
that
the
very
tyme
wherin
god
wold
haue

borne
shuld
be
knowne
/
and
the
tyme
of
the
general
resureccion
of

the

be

aboute

shall
enforce

quenche

put

aryse
bolstred

by

,
concerninge

,
inuented
by
man
and
the
iustificacion
by
workis
&c.
Agenst
which
prophane
fantasies
and
idle
imaginacions
we
must
lern
in
the
gospel
/
god
to
be
worshiped
in
spirit
/
and
faith
onely
in
cryst
to
iustifye
.
Ayenst
the
epicures
that
denye
the
resurreccion
/
and
soules
to
be
immortal
/
here
we
haue
a
cleare
testimonye
of
the
resuscitation
of
the
dead
to
come
,
where
the
vngodly
shal
be
punysshed
with
payns
perpetuall
/
and
the
godly
endewed
with
ioye
eternall
.
The
professours
of
this
doctryne
shal
aryse
ayen
vnto
lyfe
.
By
the
doctrine
of
cryste
/
of
the

,
professed
and
receyued
/
the
trwe
chirche
is
〈…〉
from
the
Synagog
of
anticryst
.
Here
it
is
taught
also
the
chirche
not
to
be
the
most
multitude

but
often
to
be
but
a
litle
miserable
sorte
afflic
with
pouerty
,
preso●s

persecucion

many
other
calamities

therfore
it
is

to
note

teaching

we
shulde
knowe

we
shuld
seke
it

in

Here
must
we
note
the
lessons
of
the
trwe
inuocacion
&
worship
of
God
.
As
when
Daniel
prayeth
/
he
aknowlegeth
to
God
onely
his

This

we

conuerted

not
nowe
thus
cruelly
to
constrayne
them

idoll

of

here
(
crysten
reader

But
why
was
not
Daniel
here
accused
and
cast
into

verely
the
kynge
had
before
so
worshipped

ex
tolled
him
into

hyghe

geuynge
him

wherof
before

he
was
called
the
golden
head
,
and
that
not
onely
for
his
ample
power

also
for
his
hyghe
arrogancye

pryde
attributing
to
himselfe
in
his
securite
the
glorye
of
god
/
whose
imperye
is
ouer
heuen
and
the
vniuersall
erth
.
He
also
magnified
himselfe
the
more
for
his
often
victories
.
For
he
was
the
Monarch
of
the
worlde

his

monissheth
the

warning
him

the

vseth
his

to

to

they

to
him

did
it
repent

toke
him

taryed
longe
enough

printed
into

him

Thei

This
Hitherto

by

of

by

inconstant
leuite
of

And
aboue
al
mens
estemacion
he
shall
waast
and
consume
infinite
ryches
of
his

He
shal
abolish
the
trwe
worship
of

and
bring

idolatry
causing
it
to
be
spred
ouer

:
he
shall
nosel

And
he
shall

He

it
seketh

for

is
the
worship

very
desyerose

perswaded

For
it
is
a

to

Anticryst
/
wherof
Daniel
was
more
troubled
then
certifyed
/
which
vision
was
tolde
him
to
come
to
passe
aftir
a
long
tyme
and
was
boden
to
close
vp
the
vision
/
but
so
that
this
vision
was
euer
in
his
mynde
/
studeinge
therof
&
desyering
to
knowe
it
more
clerely
/
&
therfore
the
aungell
calleth
him
here
the
man
of
desyers
or
couetinge
to
knowe
these
thinges
in
his
dayly
prayers
:
but
now
at

he
seing
that
the.

yeres

past

yeres
also
ouergone
he
prayed
most
effectuously

feruently

it

Wherfore
the
aungell
Gabriel
is
come
to
him
to
teache
him
more
clerely

By
this
Daniels
prayer

we

It

a

not

confirme

Aftir

Thus
ye

Antiochus
came
into

here
thei

arose
in

batail
amonge
themselues
wherby
their
cheif
cities
were
almost
vtterly
destroid

It
was
their
apoynted
plage
of
god
for
their
wiked
vngodlynes
idolatry
&
●echerie
.
And
the
heuier
&
grenoser
was
their
plage
because
thei
had
not
gods
gospell
to
counfort
them
and
to
delyuer
the
beleuers
.
For
it
is
the
moste
great
benefit
of
Gods
mercie
to
kindleforth
the
light
of
the
gospell
when
siche
heuei

if
we
repell

so
caste
we
from

It

that
brought
Martin

it
was

It

It

It
is
not
the
gospell
that
committeth
the

But
it
is
the
very
violent
denyinge

thrustinge
awaye

persecucion
therof

of

It

their

tyll
it

And
ther
fore
I
do

coniecture

d●re
not
affirme
it
for

.
As
be
it
I
knowe
that
God
wolde
haue
hys
chosen
to
be
monisshed
before

yeres

And
therfore
let
vs

vnto
god
to
gouerne

preserue
his
chirche

shortely
