How
a
faithfull
man
shall
behaue
him selfe
,
dwellinge
amongest
the
Papistes
.
MAny
do
aske
me
Counsell
oftentymes
,
how
they
shuld
behaue
them selues
amonge
the
papistes
where
it
is
not
lawful
for
them
to
worshyppe
God
puerly
:
but
euery
man
is
constrained
to
vse
many
cerimonies
whych
haue
bene
inuented
against
the
worde
of
god
,
and
be
full
of
superstition
.
Now
it
were
not
very
hard
to
answere
them
in
this
matter
&
to
defyne
vnto
them
symply
the
truth
therof
,
yf
they
were
fully
determyned
in
their
hertes
to
folow
wholy
and
without
contradiction
all
that
God
hath
commaunded
them
by
his
worde
.
But
I
wote
not
how
the
moste
parte
of
men
,
after
that
they
haue
knowen
a
thing
displeasith
god
do
neuerthelesse
gyue
them
selues
leaue
,
and
also
do
defende
them selues
againste
it
.
For
there
haue
bene
dyuers
haue
asked
me
counsell
in
this
matter
euen
altogether
after
suche
a
fashion
as
Baalam
did
of
god
,
when
he
wolde
go
vnto
kynge
Balach
,
Neuerthelesse
bycause
it
is
our
office
puerly
to
beare
witnes
to
the
verite
,
I
can
not
dissemble
nor
refraine
,
but
that
I
muste
nedes
speak
those
thinges
whiche
I
think
necessary
to
be
knowen
:
specially
when
I
am
required
ther
vnto
,
but
for
as
muche
as
all
the
difficultye
cometh
of
this
,
that
we
do
euer
giue
more
hede
to
kepe
vs
in
the
fauoure
of
the
world
,
then
to
please
god
I
exhorte
euery
faithful
person
in
the
name
of
Iesu
Christ
/
for
to
resist
his
owne
affections
,
that
he
maye
be
obediente
vnto
the
will
of
his
master
Christ
.
It
is
a
paynefull
thinge
for
a
man
to
put
him self
in
daunger
of
losing
both
body
&
gooddes
/
to
stere
vp
all
the
worlde
against
him
,
to
lyue
in
opprobrye
and
vtter
reprofe
,
and
to
leaue
the
contrary
,
where
one
may
lyue
well
at
ease
,
for
to
go
into
a
strange
countrey
as
one
goeth
astray
.
I
do
graunt
it
to
be
so
,
but
what
is
the
firste
lesson
that
we
should
learne
in
the
scole
of
Iesus
Christe
,
but
to
forsake
our selues
,
but
if
ther
be
any
so
weake
or
frayle
that
they
can
not
at
the
fyrste
determine
veri
wel
what
they
ought
to
do
,
at
the
least
I
desire
them
that
they
wyll
not
flatter
them selues
sekynge
stertyng
holes
and
vayne
excuses
for
to
hyde
them
with
/
but
these
stertynge
holes
can
not
delyuer
them
from
the
iudgement
of
god
,
yea
and
we
se
that
this
is
the
begynnyng
and
as
it
were
the
fyrste
degre
of
the
ruyne
of
suche
as
do
fall
from
the
grace
of
god
.
And
when
they
see
that
it
is
not
sure
for
them
to
make
them selues
knowen
before
men
,
that
they
be
the
true
seruantes
of
god
duly
to
honor
him
they
excuse
them selues
&
wil
be
counted
for
righteous
&
fauteles
when
they
do
with
other
men
defyle
them selues
with
dyuers
kyndes
of
Idolatrye
.
Then
afterwarde
they
perceyuinge
that
they
can
not
this
waye
escape
al
maner
of
suspicion
they
think
they
be
discharged
if
thei
do
hyde
their
cristianite
al
togither
without
speaking
so
moch
as
one
worde
of
God
except
it
be
to
their
chief
frendes
and
familyars
and
that
shut
vp
in
a
chambre
suerly
.
Now
the
whiles
they
suffere
the
truthe
of
God
to
be
blasphemed
,
&
what
dishonour
soeuer
men
do
vse
to
do
to
Iesu
Christ
:
they
do
not
onely
make
no
resystence
to
the
contrarie
,
but
also
make
as
though
they
consented
to
it
,
hauinge
none
other
thynges
in
their
mynde
but
to
take
hede
that
no
man
shuld
perceyue
that
they
be
cristians
at
the
laste
what
happeneth
to
such
maner
of
people
which
wil
with
so
carnall
pretence
(
that
is
to
saye
,
by
peruerse
subtilitie
)
begyle
both
god
and
the
world
god
suffereth
them
to
fall
as
it
were
into
a
depthe
of
darknes
depriuing
them
of
the
knowledg
that
he
had
geuen
them
,
and
so
finally
the
deuylles
possessed
them
&
styrred
them
vp
againste
the
gospell
and
maketh
them
persecute
with
a
hoote
&
cruell
furie
,
the
doctrine
whiche
before
thei
knewe
to
be
of
god
,
and
that
by
good
right
,
for
it
is
reason
,
that
that
man
which
turneth
the
verytie
of
god
into
a
lye
for
to
iustifye
hym selfe
in
hys
iniquitie
,
shoulde
therfore
fele
suche
vengeance
.
For
as
moche
then
as
as
infirmyte
doth
let
vs
for
to
accomplysshe
our
deutie
,
let
vs
rather
gyue
all
glory
vnto
god
in
confessing
our
myserye
,
then
by
inuentynge
cauillations
and
startynge
holes
to
bring
vpon
our selues
shame
&
double
damnation
,
for
we
shoulde
take
the
ensamples
of
the
punyshementes
of
god
for
admonitions
or
warnynges
,
to
the
intente
that
we
shoulde
learne
to
walke
in
hys
feare
.
What
shal
men
do
then
?
first
of
all
let
vs
not
measure
oure
duetie
due
vnto
God
after
our
owne
commodite
,
for
after
that
maner
we
shall
neuer
attayne
to
the
truthe
.
Then
afterward
let
vs
not
in
this
matter
haue
respect
vnto
our
owne
persons
for
to
seke
oute
that
whiche
is
most
conuenient
for
vs
after
the
fleshe
.
Thirdely
let
vs
not
take
counsell
at
oure
owne
brayne
,
which
waye
is
best
to
wynd
vs
out
of
parell
and
trouble
:
but
let
vs
rather
trust
in
the
prouidence
of
god
nothing
doubting
but
that
he
is
able
inough
for
to
kepe
vs
euen
in
the
myddes
of
a
thousand
deathes
,
if
necessite
required
,
that
it
shoulde
come
ther
vnto
:
thus
doing
we
shuld
not
haue
any
nede
long
to
stand
in
aduisement
or
dispute
of
the
one
parte
or
of
the
other
parte
whyther
we
should
with
trouble
with
the
losse
of
our
goodes
,
with
the
daunger
of
our
lyfe
,
obaye
vnto
god
or
no
,
&
for
to
please
hym
gette
the
euyll
wyll
of
men
:
but
hauyng
ones
hys
commaundemente
,
we
shoulde
redelye
&
withoute
doubte
folowe
it
as
a
suer
waye
commyttynge
vnto
hym
what
soeuer
myght
come
therof
&
gyue
our selues
ouer
vnto
hys
holy
sauegarde
:
here
haue
we
the
onely
mean
wherby
to
gouerne
vs
truely
.
In
this
case
I
wil
recite
a
godly
example
that
Sainct
augustyne
doth
reherse
whyche
shall
be
good
for
to
bolden
and
incorage
vs
thus
for
to
do
.
It
is
that
Sainct
Cyprian
after
that
he
was
condempned
to
the
deathe
bycause
he
wold
not
do
sacrifice
vnto
ydolles
was
moued
and
inticed
to
condiscende
vnto
the
same
for
sauyng
of
his
lyfe
.
And
specialy
the
Iudge
coueting
to
delyuer
hym
required
hym
instauntly
,
for
to
do
so
and
prayed
him
wel
to
bethynke
&
aduyse
him selfe
.
Vnto
whome
he
gaue
a
shorte
answere
,
that
in
a
thing
so
holy
deliberacion
myghte
haue
no
place
.
Let
vs
now
consyder
in
what
estate
Sainct
Cypriane
was
then
,
he
sawe
the
death
before
his
eyes
:
but
for
asmoche
as
he
was
at
a
point
with
him selfe
,
for
to
folowe
the
commandement
of
God
,
the
same
delyuered
him
frome
all
perplexite
,
that
he
was
not
astonyed
:
so
that
he
dyd
not
bowe
or
change
his
mynde
,
but
abode
inuincible
.
This
is
then
a
notable
sentence
which
ought
to
be
well
printed
in
our
memory
,
to
th
intent
that
we
do
not
attempte
throughe
any
deuelysh
presumption
,
for
to
aduyse
oure selues
whether
we
maye
do
that
whiche
God
hath
spoken
or
no
:
as
thoughe
we
might
controlle
him
,
but
yf
we
will
take
counsell
at
oure
owne
head
&
turne
away
from
his
worde
,
let
vs
surely
wayte
for
the
curse
which
he
hath
pronounced
by
the
Prophet
Esay
,
vpon
all
them
which
gyue
not
auctorite
vnto
his
spirite
for
to
rule
in
their
counselles
and
axe
not
at
his
mouth
to
take
there
at
their
determinacions
.
We
se
nowe
touchinge
this
present
matter
,
that
yf
our
lord
hath
on
this
wyse
declared
his
will
,
we
contentinge
our selues
with
his
worde
,
may
haue
sure
knowledge
of
that
that
we
ought
to
do
.
This
nowe
concluded
,
yf
anye
man
will
still
to
it
replye
,
let
him
go
and
pleade
agaynste
God
,
to
se
whether
he
can
wyn
his
processe
against
one
so
strong
a
partye
specially
hauinge
so
euyll
a
matter
.
First
,
let
vs
remember
that
Iesus
Christ
doth
learne
vs
al
this
lesson
at
the
first
entrance
into
his
scole
,
that
yf
we
be
ashamed
of
him
or
of
his
worde
before
men
,
Beholde
then
how
that
our
Lorde
is
not
content
when
we
do
knowledge
him
secretly
onely
and
in
our
hertes
,
but
he
requireth
straightly
,
that
we
doo
declare
before
men
by
outward
profession
that
we
be
of
his
:
&
he
dothe
not
accept
vs
to
be
of
his
kyngdome
but
vnder
that
condicion
.
And
it
is
no
maruell
for
that
that
sainct
Paul
saithe
can
not
be
false
,
Now
one
wil
demaunde
whether
euerye
one
muste
declare
him selfe
openly
or
no
,
yf
he
will
doo
his
dutie
thoughe
no
man
enquire
of
him
his
faith
?
I
answer
,
that
it
is
not
my
meaning
for
in
asmoche
as
it
is
a
particular
office
to
preache
openlye
/
it
is
not
conuenient
that
euerye
man
medle
therewith
/
no
neyther
were
it
expedient
nor
conuenient
?
I
meane
not
them
that
euery
man
shoulde
go
into
the
pulpet
to
declare
their
christianyte
/
or
elles
that
we
shuld
publysh
it
in
the
stretes
as
the
blowing
of
a
trompet
:
but
that
euerye
one
after
their
vocation
in
the
which
he
is
called
to
take
hede
that
he
geue
god
his
glory
.
Now
for
as
moche
as
oure
lorde
hath
not
determyned
neither
the
tyme
nor
the
place
,
neither
yet
the
boundes
,
how
farre
we
shall
go
,
we
can
not
make
any
certayne
lawes
therfore
.
But
it
is
mete
that
euery
one
(
to
his
power
)
doo
applye
him selfe
faithfully
,
to
doo
the
same
by
all
the
meanes
that
he
can
,
consydering
alwayes
the
state
in
whiche
he
is
and
the
grace
that
god
hath
geuen
hym
,
&
bycause
that
we
be
al
slouthfull
and
negligent
,
except
that
we
haue
alwayes
some
spoure
for
to
stere
and
pricke
vs
forth
,
let
vs
haue
these
godly
sentences
printed
in
our
hartes
wherin
it
is
commaunded
vs
to
be
ready
to
render
a
reason
of
the
hope
that
is
in
vs
vnto
eueri
one
that
axeth
vs
.
But
for
as
moch
as
we
haue
no
certeyne
rule
to
certifye
vs
,
how
far
&
how
wide
we
should
walke
,
there
is
no
more
to
do
then
,
but
euery
man
to
desyre
our
lorde
to
directe
him
in
true
wisdome
:
that
he
may
iudge
what
is
moste
expedient
to
be
done
.
And
then
afterwarde
after
his
power
(
accordinge
to
the
measure
of
the
vnderstanding
whiche
he
hathe
)
he
do
seke
all
the
meanes
and
occasyons
that
is
possible
for
to
fulfyll
his
dutie
:
to
the
intente
that
we
haue
all
wayes
the
folowinge
of
Iesus
Christ
for
our
marke
,
But
the
thing
which
I
haue
taken
chiefly
to
handell
at
this
tyme
,
is
to
knowe
whether
a
Christian
man
being
rightly
instructe
in
the
truthe
of
the
gospell
,
when
he
is
among
the
Papistes
do
offende
god
or
not
yf
he
do
as
other
do
in
going
to
the
masse
,
worshipping
of
ymages
,
reliques
,
&
vsyng
such
lyke
cerimonies
.
And
to
preuent
the
cauillation
of
some
,
we
entreat
not
now
of
this
difficultie
,
whether
it
be
euyl
done
to
dissemble
:
but
whether
a
man
may
feine
and
counterfaicte
or
fasshion
hym selfe
against
the
verite
&
truth
.
A
man
doth
dissemble
when
he
hydeth
that
that
is
with
in
his
herte
:
but
he
feyneth
or
sembleth
whan
he
feineth
him selfe
to
be
that
he
is
not
,
in
conclusion
loke
what
it
is
to
lie
with
the
mouth
that
same
is
to
feine
in
the
dede
.
Now
to
defyne
this
question
,
we
must
note
,
that
as
there
be
two
maner
of
honours
that
we
owe
vnto
God
,
that
is
to
saye
,
spirituall
seruyce
of
the
harte
&
the
external
or
outwarde
worshyppinge
:
euen
so
on
the
other
syde
,
be
there
two
kindes
of
Idolatry
,
the
fyrste
is
whan
a
man
through
a
false
fantasy
whiche
he
hath
conceyued
in
his
hart
or
spirite
doth
corrupt
&
peruert
the
spiritual
salues
of
one
only
god
The
other
is
whan
a
man
(
for
what
cause
so
euer
it
be
)
dothe
geue
or
transfer
the
honor
which
belongeth
vnto
god
onely
,
vnto
any
creature
.
As
for
an
ensample
vnto
an
ymage
,
let
vs
then
begyn
to
speake
of
the
duty
which
we
owe
towarde
god
,
to
serue
hym
duelye
.
Is
it
sufficient
for
euery
man
to
holde
god
within
hym selfe
within
hys
harte
for
his
sauyour
and
worshyp
hym
in
secrete
?
No
,
he
requyrethe
more
of
vs
saying
,
that
we
must
glorify
him
as
well
in
our
body
as
in
our
spirite
&
he
adioyneth
the
cause
.
Because
that
both
of
them
belonge
vnto
hym
.
Now
although
we
had
not
this
commaundement
,
yet
it
is
euydent
that
it
shoulde
be
so
,
for
in
as
much
as
our
bodyes
be
redemed
by
the
precious
bloud
of
Iesus
Christ
.
What
reason
is
it
,
that
we
shoulde
prostytute
it
before
an
Idoll
?
Seing
that
it
is
the
temple
of
the
holy
gost
.
What
an
horrible
synne
were
it
then
for
to
defyle
it
with
such
sacryledge
?
Considerynge
that
it
is
predestinate
to
receyue
the
crowne
of
immortalite
and
to
be
partaker
of
the
glory
of
god
,
is
it
then
conuenient
for
to
corrupte
and
to
foil
it
with
such
fylth
?
let
vs
learne
then
that
euen
as
our
soules
be
consecrated
vnto
God
,
euen
so
ought
our
bodyes
to
be
reserued
vnto
his
honour
.
S.
Paul
cryinge
agaynste
whoredome
vseth
this
argument
.
Then
it
is
nowe
a
vayne
excuse
,
&
that
dothe
not
elles
but
aggrauate
and
enlarge
the
syn
to
allege
that
god
is
content
with
thy
herte
:
for
we
se
the
contrary
.
Euen
so
is
it
to
allege
that
ydolatry
procedeth
of
superstition
and
therfore
that
it
is
not
commytted
but
whan
the
herte
is
there
with
it
,
for
although
a
man
do
mocke
an
Idoll
in
his
harte
when
he
maketh
as
though
he
worshypped
hym
:
yet
is
he
neuertheles
gyltye
of
this
synne
in
that
he
giueth
the
honour
of
god
to
a
creature
/
but
let
vs
set
a
parte
all
superstition
:
what
is
it
that
a
man
can
pretend
in
his
behalfe
?
He
wyll
denye
that
he
sinneth
,
for
asmoch
as
his
mind
or
intente
is
not
euyll
.
What
thyng
soeuer
(
wyll
he
say
)
that
other
men
do
,
I
worshyp
the
lyuyng
god
in
my
herte
,
I
know
that
it
is
sacrilege
and
abhomynation
for
a
man
to
goo
to
an
Image
,
of
it
to
seke
or
wayt
for
any
helpe
or
else
to
do
it
any
reuerence
.
It
is
to
god
that
I
direct
my selfe
,
althoughe
I
seeme
to
worshyp
the
Image
.
This
is
the
same
cloke
and
colour
whiche
the
Corinthyans
pretended
when
Sainct
Paule
reproued
them
of
this
vice
,
Thus
the
cause
standynge
for
to
auoyde
daunger
,
let
vs
be
in
the
company
of
other
,
fayninge
as
thoughe
we
folowed
them
,
Coulde
suche
cauillation
quyte
them
before
God
?
Euery
man
will
saye
naye
,
Well
what
shall
we
saye
then
,
shal
we
accuse
them
of
an
vndiscrete
zeale
/
because
that
they
had
rather
suffer
them selues
to
be
cast
into
a
burnyng
fornace
then
to
counterfaite
or
feyne
,
and
haue
their
hartes
neuertheles
alwayes
vnto
God
?
But
this
were
asmoche
as
to
reproue
the
holy
ghoste
whiche
prayseth
them
for
this
their
constancy
,
Some
man
will
saye
,
that
euery
man
can
not
be
so
constant
and
stedfaste
.
Well
foloweth
it
therfore
vpon
that
that
we
shulde
not
folowe
th
exemple
which
is
set
before
vs
for
a
doctrine
.
Euen
accordynge
as
we
do
seke
sterting
holes
for
to
excuse
our
syn
:
so
semeth
it
vnto
some
men
,
that
they
haue
a
good
solucion
for
this
texte
:
when
they
saye
,
that
it
ought
to
be
vnderstande
of
the
Idolatry
of
the
heathen
,
and
therfore
it
ought
not
to
be
applyed
vnto
our
tyme
.
For
the
Paynims
(
saye
they
)
were
not
onely
deceyued
in
vsinge
of
peruerse
ceremonies
:
but
also
in
as
moch
as
they
had
Goddes
deuysed
&
forged
oute
of
their
fantasye
.
It
is
no
meruell
then
(
say
they
)
yf
our
lord
do
so
greatly
reproue
their
maner
of
doinges
:
but
this
is
not
all
one
with
that
that
is
done
amonge
the
Papistes
:
For
althoughe
the
seruice
of
God
be
amonge
them
corrupt
and
fautie
,
yet
alwayes
their
intention
is
none
other
but
to
worshippe
God
.
To
be
shorte
,
they
arme
them selues
with
this
diuersite
that
they
thinke
there
is
not
so
greate
parell
to
be
partaker
in
any
Idolatry
the
which
is
couered
with
the
name
of
God
,
as
in
an
other
that
were
altogither
withoute
anye
couer
.
But
vnto
this
I
answere
that
for
asmoche
as
the
worlde
goeth
aboute
to
serue
God
after
a
peruerse
and
an
vnlawfull
maner
,
that
then
it
doth
worship
an
Idole
:
what
cloke
so
euer
they
make
.
Then
,
they
that
inuente
superstitions
whiche
God
condemneth
and
refuseth
,
mighte
very
well
say
,
we
will
serue
god
but
in
asmoche
as
God
accepteth
not
suche
seruice
they
do
it
rather
to
the
deuyll
.
Loke
also
vppon
the
golden
Calfe
whiche
Aaron
dyd
caste
,
was
not
the
same
to
represente
the
lyuinge
God
?
for
when
he
made
proclamation
that
the
people
shulde
assemble
togither
for
to
kepe
the
feaste
of
the
Lorde
whiche
had
brought
them
oute
of
the
lande
of
Egypte
,
that
same
was
receyued
of
euery
man
without
contradiction
:
it
was
then
a
Ceremonye
set
vp
to
honour
God
with
.
But
because
it
was
false
and
peruerse
,
it
was
reputed
for
Idolatrye
.
He
that
had
feyned
him selfe
there
to
consente
excusinge
him selfe
by
the
tytle
of
God
/
hadde
he
therfore
bene
gyltlesse
?
We
wolde
all
of
vs
condempne
him
.
How
commeth
it
then
in
a
lyke
matter
,
we
will
not
seme
to
erre
.
As
moche
maye
we
saye
of
the
Calues
which
Ieroboam
prepared
Now
to
make
an
end
of
this
artycle
the
temple
of
the
Samaritaynes
,
was
it
builded
vnto
the
name
of
Iupiter
or
Mars
?
We
knowe
that
it
was
done
to
the
name
of
the
lord
god
of
Israel
,
was
it
therfore
lawfull
for
any
faithfull
man
to
worship
there
.
It
is
very
playne
that
it
had
byn
an
extreme
abhomination
.
I
conclude
then
vpon
these
reasons
inuincyble
,
that
it
is
no
more
lefull
to
communicate
in
an
ydolatry
which
is
decked
with
the
name
of
God
then
if
it
were
all
together
the
sacrifice
of
the
heathen
.
Nowe
,
before
we
passe
any
further
,
in
as
moch
as
we
haue
now
sene
that
ydolatry
,
yea
,
all
although
it
be
committed
but
fainedly
,
doth
alwayes
displese
God
:
it
is
conuenient
for
vs
to
applye
this
doctrine
vnto
our
tyme
.
If
a
man
were
amonge
the
Turkes
,
there
were
no
doubt
but
he
should
do
wickedly
and
agaynst
god
,
to
enter
with
them
into
their
sinagoge
/
ther
for
to
kepe
their
superstition
?
And
yf
there
myght
be
found
paraduenture
any
man
so
far
past
shame
as
for
to
aproue
this
,
he
should
declare
himself
to
haue
no
fear
of
god
nor
any
conscience
of
sin
.
A
good
cause
whye
?
For
loke
euen
as
the
worshippyng
of
god
done
in
the
churche
or
in
the
company
of
the
faythfull
after
hys
word
is
a
solempne
acknowleginge
that
we
do
holde
and
excepte
him
for
our
god
:
and
that
we
do
honor
hym
openly
.
So
a
man
to
ioyne
him selfe
with
the
Turkes
or
Paynims
for
to
folow
their
maner
of
worshiping
that
they
vse
(
which
is
naught
)
It
is
a
kynde
of
forsakynge
of
god
,
by
which
he
is
defiled
and
accursed
.
To
say
so
moche
of
the
Papistes
,
plainly
it
semeth
a
very
straunge
thing
.
For
we
haue
many
thinges
with
them
to
common
together
:
&
what
soeuer
deuision
or
variance
there
be
betwene
them
and
vs
,
yet
muste
we
(
without
all
comparison
)
haue
more
felowshyp
with
them
,
than
with
the
heathen
,
yea
,
and
yf
it
were
but
for
the
honour
of
the
name
of
Iesus
Christe
whiche
they
beare
:
in
which
thing
also
we
agre
with
them
.
We
muste
see
then
where
in
and
how
farre
,
it
is
lawfull
for
a
christian
man
that
is
well
instructe
in
the
truthe
of
the
gospell
,
for
to
communicate
withe
them
/
for
I
speake
not
,
but
bycause
of
them
(
to
whom
god
hath
opened
his
truth
)
with
how
great
filthines
the
whole
papisticall
church
is
replenished
.
To
iudg
now
well
of
this
matter
,
it
is
necessary
to
be
noted
that
of
that
which
men
call
the
seruyce
of
god
there
is
one
parte
whiche
was
Institute
all
together
directly
against
god
:
another
part
hath
bene
depraued
and
abused
by
the
faulte
of
them
whiche
misused
it
.
Albeit
that
at
the
beginning
the
first
origenall
was
not
euil
.
Further
that
there
be
many
ceremonies
whiche
a
man
by
no
meanes
can
excuse
,
but
that
they
conteyne
playn
ydolatry
.
Now
there
be
other
which
be
vayne
and
folysshe
,
neuertheles
of
them selues
they
cannot
defile
a
man
excepte
that
a
man
in
the
obseruinge
of
them
haue
any
superstitious
opinion
.
Thirdely
we
must
marke
that
there
be
some
thinges
that
were
commaunded
wickedly
whiche
notwithstan
-
a
christian
man
may
kepe
with
out
offence
.
Other
ther
be
whiche
may
not
,
neyther
ought
not
in
any
wyse
to
be
obserued
.
It
is
not
necessary
for
to
handle
or
entreat
of
all
these
kyndes
one
after
another
seuerally
.
It
is
sufficient
to
touche
them
to
the
intent
that
a
man
may
know
that
I
am
not
so
sharpe
&
extreame
as
altogether
and
without
exception
to
forbid
a
christian
man
that
he
may
not
confirme
hym selfe
to
the
Papistes
in
any
cerymonye
of
obseruation
:
for
I
intende
not
to
condempne
any
other
thinge
then
that
whiche
is
playne
euyll
and
manifestely
naught
.
And
bycause
this
can
not
be
well
vnderstande
but
by
examples
,
without
goinge
any
further
about
the
busshe
,
let
vs
set
forthe
the
thinge
euen
as
it
is
,
amongest
the
papistes
there
is
masse
songe
dayly
,
they
that
wyl
seme
more
deuoute
then
other
,
go
to
the
churche
to
heare
it
:
whether
may
thys
thynge
now
be
excused
?
Who
soeuer
hath
but
meanely
profited
in
the
Gospell
is
not
ignorante
but
that
thing
is
none
other
than
playn
sacrilege
&
abhomination
which
the
priestes
do
there
.
I
praye
you
,
may
a
man
go
to
bow
hym selfe
before
an
Idoll
,
that
eueri
man
should
know
that
he
hath
a
deuotion
to
a
wicked
thynge
and
it
not
syn
in
so
doing
?
But
if
it
be
so
,
what
shoulde
become
of
that
that
the
holy
ghoste
speketh
by
the
mouth
of
sainct
Paul
that
we
haue
not
to
do
with
the
vnfrutefull
workes
of
darknes
but
rather
should
reproue
than
?
But
yf
there
were
no
more
but
this
deuelish
Imagination
for
to
sacrifice
Iesus
Christ
vnto
god
to
the
intent
that
such
a
worke
shuld
be
a
satisfaction
&
an
attonment
for
the
quicke
&
the
dead
,
is
not
this
a
manifest
denieng
of
his
death
&
passion
:
the
which
is
made
of
no
value
if
that
men
do
not
acknowledge
it
for
the
only
&
perpetuall
sacrifice
?
Is
it
not
a
playne
corruption
of
the
holy
supper
?
It
is
sure
that
these
two
so
abhominable
pollutions
can
no
more
be
seperated
from
the
masse
,
then
heat
from
fyer
.
Whosoeuer
commeth
thervnto
to
be
partaker
of
it
/
can
he
be
puer
and
cleane
commyttyng
suche
an
acte
?
Is
this
the
honor
which
we
beare
vnto
God
our
father
and
to
Iesus
Christ
our
maister
&
redeamer
,
that
when
we
see
suche
a
spytefull
dede
done
of
one
and
other
,
in
the
steade
of
speakyng
against
it
,
do
come
&
ioyne
our selues
vnto
hym
that
dothe
it
?
And
that
worse
is
,
do
allure
other
by
our
examples
to
do
as
muche
.
Is
it
not
to
shamefull
to
say
,
that
a
man
in
dishonouring
of
god
and
gyuing
example
vnto
his
neyghbour
doth
none
euyll
at
all
?
Then
is
their
Idolatry
which
passeth
all
vngodlynes
,
to
worshippe
a
pyece
oft
breade
as
God
,
and
to
say
that
it
is
no
more
bread
but
god
him selfe
.
If
that
same
were
the
supper
of
our
lorde
whiche
there
were
duly
mynistred
,
we
graunt
well
than
,
that
there
shoulde
be
a
true
spirituall
receyuinge
of
the
bodye
and
bloude
of
Iesus
Christe
.
But
yet
therfore
were
not
this
as
moch
as
to
say
that
the
substance
of
bread
were
chaunged
:
or
that
the
body
were
hidden
within
it
.
For
the
supper
is
geuen
to
cause
vs
to
lyfte
vp
our
myndes
on
heyght
vnto
heauen
not
for
to
fyxe
them
vpon
these
visible
thinges
and
sygnes
of
bread
and
wine
,
which
be
there
present
with
vs
.
Now
then
/
if
this
were
the
very
supper
in
dede
,
it
were
aperilous
&
a
dampnable
fantasye
,
to
worshyp
a
piece
of
bread
in
the
steade
of
Iesus
Christe
.
Other
else
to
seke
hym
there
.
But
it
is
not
now
necessarye
to
enter
into
his
disputation
.
For
by
what
meanes
belongeth
it
vnto
the
masse
this
promes
of
Iesus
Christe
,
when
in
geuing
of
the
bread
he
sayde
take
,
eate
,
this
is
my
bodye
,
whiche
shall
be
deliuered
for
you
.
For
before
he
promiseth
any
thinge
,
he
commaundeth
that
the
sacramente
be
distributed
amonge
the
faith
full
.
Is
this
done
at
the
masse
?
No
but
rather
contrary
wyse
,
the
prieste
doth
his
busynes
alone
aparte
as
though
he
wold
exclude
and
excommunicate
that
whole
congregation
.
Thinke
we
then
that
in
doyng
altogither
contrary
to
that
Christ
ordeyned
,
we
haue
him
yet
tied
to
our
gyrdles
for
to
play
with
hym
as
with
a
lytle
babye
?
Or
else
rather
as
a
tenys
Ball
for
to
whirle
him
here
and
there
euyn
as
it
pleaseth
vs
?
Furthermore
,
he
addeth
,
that
we
do
celebrate
his
sacrament
in
the
memorie
of
him
there
by
preching
hys
death
with
prayse
and
gyuynge
of
thankes
.
Now
,
howe
can
this
be
done
in
the
masse
,
wher
there
is
not
so
moche
as
one
worde
vnderstand
:
but
altogyther
is
done
and
spoken
in
an
vnknowen
tongue
.
Moreouer
it
is
vnto
vs
that
Ihesus
Christe
directeth
him self
in
promising
vs
in
the
communion
of
his
body
,
when
he
geueth
vs
the
sacramentall
bread
.
In
the
masse
is
there
nothinge
of
all
this
,
but
the
Priest
after
the
fasshion
of
Inchaunters
or
Iugglers
bloweth
vpon
the
bread
to
charme
and
cuniure
it
.
Wherfore
,
thinke
ye
this
to
be
good
?
To
be
shorte
,
ye
shall
as
sone
proue
,
that
ther
is
any
similytude
betwene
the
Popes
masse
and
the
supper
of
our
lorde
as
that
the
day
shold
no
more
be
contrary
to
the
nyghte
Then
what
elles
can
the
worshipping
be
which
men
do
ther
to
the
breade
,
than
abhomynable
Idolatry
.
yea
more
grosse
&
more
folysshe
then
euer
was
any
amonge
the
Painyms
.
Now
let
vs
se
with
how
good
a
conscience
a
christian
man
may
be
present
there
,
for
to
fashion
him self
there
lyke
vnto
other
men
.
Beholde
an
Idoll
that
is
lyfte
vp
on
hygh
on
the
shoulders
to
be
called
vpon
and
worshipped
as
God
.
I
shall
fall
downe
on
my
knees
I
shall
make
protestation
to
worsip
it
.
And
then
afterwarde
I
wold
not
that
any
man
shoulde
reproue
me
what
meaneth
all
this
?
Though
no
man
should
speake
a
word
doth
not
the
acte
it selfe
accuse
me
ynough
wherefore
though
men
do
spare
me
,
yet
god
wyll
not
spare
me
.
Now
yf
there
were
no
more
but
this
,
I
se
not
what
cloke
any
faythfull
man
can
fynd
for
to
purge
hym selfe
,
that
he
shoulde
not
be
faultye
in
thus
doynge
.
And
yet
neuerthelesse
perceyuinge
that
they
haue
no
thynge
to
laye
for
them
,
do
not
yet
cease
to
fynd
cauyllations
pretendynge
the
auctoritie
of
this
man
,
or
that
man
,
for
their
buckeler
.
But
to
what
purpose
must
we
set
th
opinyon
of
men
plat
agaynst
the
worde
of
god
?
I
apeale
theyr
owne
conscience
,
yf
the
same
do
not
condempne
them
,
what
shall
it
then
helpe
them
to
be
absolued
of
men
when
before
god
they
be
conuynced
for
to
do
euyll
.
But
this
is
it
that
I
saide
at
the
begynninge
that
,
manye
do
aske
me
,
not
for
to
know
the
verite
but
to
haue
an
answere
agreable
to
their
desyre
.
And
our
lorde
to
punysshe
their
hipocrisye
,
suffereth
them
to
fynde
suche
as
they
seke
:
but
that
is
none
other
but
vnto
their
more
greuous
confusion
.
But
for
as
moche
as
this
euyll
is
wont
to
sprede
it selfe
abrode
very
farre
euen
almoste
among
all
men
,
for
to
haue
more
cleare
and
easy
declaration
of
this
matter
:
let
vs
consyder
in
a
some
,
that
whiche
men
be
commonlye
accustomed
to
do
.
Behold
then
,
what
euery
man
will
do
for
his
owne
parte
,
I
speake
specially
of
the
better
sorte
of
that
worldely
wyse
people
,
whyche
wyll
enterteyne
and
kepe
them
selues
in
the
fauour
of
the
world
:
on
the
sundaye
he
wyll
not
onely
take
holy
water
(
as
they
call
it
)
with
other
lyke
cerymonies
and
also
go
to
the
Masse
,
but
also
vpon
all
other
holy
dayes
,
of
that
which
one
part
was
institute
,
of
very
manyfeste
superstition
:
there
one
syngethe
Masse
in
the
honoure
of
a
Saincte
,
yea
,
oft
such
one
where
of
there
is
none
other
probation
,
then
that
the
Pope
hath
put
hym
in
hys
paradice
.
But
yet
although
it
were
a
Sainct
approued
,
shal
one
synge
Masse
in
the
honoure
of
hym
?
Can
there
be
any
gretter
abhomynation
,
them
to
transfer
the
Sacramente
of
our
lorde
vnto
such
an
abuse
?
And
thinke
we
that
the
lord
will
make
him selfe
subiecte
vnto
suche
fylthynes
?
Besides
this
,
what
prayers
do
they
make
there
?
Wicked
ones
and
stuffed
withe
blasphemyes
.
Let
hym
that
dothe
communicate
withe
them
,
excuse
hym selfe
yf
he
can
.
Now
euery
man
doth
this
commonly
.
If
that
I
or
any
other
wolde
flatterre
them
in
this
,
were
it
not
euen
to
betraye
the
truthe
?
Now
when
any
man
shall
be
maryed
,
where
as
he
ought
to
represente
hym selfe
before
god
and
hys
churche
,
that
his
mary
age
myghte
be
blessed
.
Fyrste
there
shal
be
many
folysshe
gandes
,
whiche
be
mete
do
defyle
him
.
Finally
,
he
shal
pollute
him selfe
altogether
by
byinge
of
a
Masse
with
his
owne
monye
.
I
demaunde
this
of
you
?
when
the
Priest
selleth
the
Masse
,
is
it
not
sacriledge
?
What
shall
we
say
then
of
hym
that
byethe
it
?
Our
lord
sayth
,
that
a
good
make
is
a
speciall
gyfte
of
hys
goodnes
,
now
then
it
were
mete
for
hym
to
geue
hym
thankes
&
to
desyre
hym
to
accomplishe
that
which
he
hath
begonne
in
makynge
the
maryage
to
prosper
.
Is
not
this
to
prouoke
his
wrathe
,
for
to
vse
such
abhomynation
?
We
knowe
all
how
moch
our
lord
doth
honour
mariage
,
and
in
what
estimation
he
wolde
that
we
shoulde
haue
the
holynes
therof
,
when
he
compareth
it
to
the
spirituall
vnion
,
which
he
hath
with
his
people
thorow
the
vertue
of
his
holy
spirite
.
Shal
we
polute
that
thyng
which
is
the
ymage
of
the
coniunction
which
we
haue
with
the
lord
Iesus
,
&
begyn
the
same
with
the
denying
of
his
death
?
Do
not
we
thinke
that
the
lord
wyll
punysshe
greuousely
such
outragiousenes
?
The
mariage
fynisshed
,
they
haue
a
chylde
:
where
as
he
shoulde
be
presented
vnto
the
lord
for
to
receiue
baptysme
puerly
after
his
institution
:
in
the
stead
of
the
same
he
is
defyled
withe
very
manye
peruerse
and
prophane
cerymonies
.
It
is
truthe
that
because
of
the
same
,
the
baptysme
ceaseth
not
to
haue
hys
vertue
as
touchynge
the
chylde
,
bycause
the
holy
ordinaunce
of
god
can
not
be
abholished
by
the
folyshe
inuentions
of
men
:
but
the
father
shall
not
be
excused
of
synne
in
consentynge
to
suche
a
mynystration
of
baptisme
,
which
is
altogether
faulty
and
corrupte
.
I
passe
ouer
the
Iewes
superstition
which
is
vsed
at
the
churchyng
of
the
mother
and
at
her
commynge
abrode
.
Nowe
we
wyll
come
vnto
instruction
off
a
howsholde
.
Who
is
he
that
hath
any
care
to
haue
hys
seruauntes
ryghtly
taught
for
to
serue
god
after
hys
worde
?
Is
it
not
rather
a
thyng
to
common
,
to
let
them
lyue
in
ignoraunce
lyke
brute
bestes
,
and
wythout
carefulnesse
of
withdrawynge
them
from
Idolatry
?
But
there
is
great
daunger
(
say
they
)
to
speake
vnto
them
.
Let
vs
passe
ouer
to
speake
of
the
daunger
for
this
presente
tyme
.
Shal
that
be
a
lette
that
men
shoulde
not
do
it
?
Is
it
reason
that
we
shoulde
be
serued
euery
man
in
his
house
and
that
god
be
there
not
with
standyng
dishonoured
?
Thynke
we
that
a
housholde
deserueth
to
prosper
in
whiche
god
is
not
the
soueraigne
lorde
?
And
what
do
I
speake
of
seruantes
,
howe
many
fathers
are
there
which
dare
instruct
(
as
they
ought
to
do
)
their
wyues
and
children
?
yet
neuertheles
,
for
as
moche
as
these
faultes
do
rather
declare
one
to
be
neglygent
in
doynge
hys
dutie
,
then
to
offende
god
in
doinge
expresly
the
contrary
:
I
do
not
prosecute
in
euery
thynge
agaynste
them
very
bitterly
.
For
as
moch
as
my
intent
is
,
to
speake
of
suche
deades
as
men
commyt
agaynste
the
commaundement
of
god
:
&
be
transgressynges
of
his
law
.
All
we
which
haue
receyued
the
pure
doctryne
of
the
gospel
do
graunt
well
that
their
diryges
and
obsequies
for
the
dead
be
very
abhomynable
.
Fyrste
,
for
as
moche
as
,
they
were
at
the
begynninge
inuented
falsely
agaynst
the
scripture
,
and
also
that
they
be
derogacion
to
the
death
and
Passion
of
our
Lorde
Iesu
Christ
.
Now
yf
that
a
mans
father
or
frend
do
dye
or
a
neighbour
he
that
calleth
him self
a
Christian
man
will
go
with
the
other
,
makinge
as
though
he
prayed
for
hys
soule
.
What
cloke
haue
they
for
this
,
except
it
be
suche
a
one
as
can
not
kepe
away
the
rayne
?
Nowe
,
yf
the
father
or
wyfe
dye
,
he
will
not
onely
approue
these
sacrileges
in
standinge
by
them
:
but
wil
also
bye
them
with
his
mony
:
yf
the
priest
in
sellinge
the
Masse
do
folowe
the
market
of
Iudas
.
Now
he
that
putteth
the
same
in
practyce
and
geueth
him
wages
,
shall
he
be
gyltlesse
?
I
will
speake
nothing
of
that
men
do
all
the
rest
of
the
yere
:
I
wil
only
entreat
of
the
feast
of
Easter
What
do
al
they
then
communly
,
which
do
professe
the
Gospel
They
sticke
not
to
go
vnto
confession
,
not
onely
to
satisfye
the
tyrannous
commandement
of
Antychriste
:
but
also
consent
to
the
blasphemyes
that
shall
please
the
Prieste
to
pronounce
ouer
them
,
and
by
suche
consentinge
as
it
were
sealed
to
them
:
for
as
the
Priest
doth
gyue
absolucion
by
the
auctorite
of
the
seate
Apostolyke
(
that
is
to
saye
)
of
the
Idole
of
Rome
,
whiche
can
do
none
other
but
destroye
and
curse
,
euen
so
must
he
receue
it
as
a
very
holsom
thing
.
I
aske
whether
this
can
be
found
good
that
a
Christen
man
shuld
present
him selfe
and
fawle
downe
before
the
vicare
or
depute
of
Antichrist
,
for
to
receyue
remission
of
synnes
,
in
the
steade
of
that
whiche
he
oughte
to
seke
at
the
minister
of
the
Gospell
.
In
like
wyse
,
he
enioyneth
him
penance
but
what
is
it
?
It
is
most
communly
to
mumble
vp
certayne
Aue
Maries
,
before
a
crucifix
,
to
cause
Masses
to
be
done
,
or
to
do
other
lyke
Idolatry
,
And
to
what
purpose
?
Forsothe
to
make
satisfaction
vnto
God
,
&
to
recompence
him
.
If
this
work
may
be
allowed
,
I
can
not
see
,
what
synne
one
maye
reproue
in
all
the
worlde
.
But
to
th
intent
I
be
not
ouerlonge
,
let
euery
man
recken
with
him selfe
the
dampnable
superstitions
whiche
they
then
commit
in
thre
or
fower
dayes
And
who
is
he
that
absteyneth
from
them
,
it
is
possible
that
ther
be
some
,
but
the
numbre
is
very
small
.
A
Christen
man
whan
he
hathe
lyued
continually
in
this
fylth
and
myre
,
yet
cometh
there
worse
at
the
deathe
,
for
then
is
it
,
that
the
deuell
troubleth
him
and
gyueth
him
most
assautes
,
for
ether
friers
or
priestes
shal
be
at
his
elbowe
,
for
to
seduce
and
deceyue
him
,
vnto
whom
although
he
consent
not
yet
must
he
neuerthelesse
graunt
them
somwhat
,
and
make
vnto
them
a
good
face
.
What
torment
shall
he
fynde
in
his
hart
,
which
muste
immediately
appeare
before
his
iudge
Iesus
Christ
,
after
that
he
hathe
bene
ashamed
or
afraied
to
confesse
him
?
Consyderinge
that
this
sentence
is
gyuen
alredy
,
Now
haue
I
brieffely
comprehended
them
in
a
grosse
som
louinge
rather
to
dyminish
and
leaue
many
thinges
oute
,
then
to
amplifie
and
enlarge
the
same
which
of
it self
is
but
to
bad
.
Euen
so
,
whan
a
man
truly
fearinge
God
and
comparinge
of
that
he
doth
,
with
that
whiche
is
here
writen
,
shall
knowledge
that
he
synneth
double
so
moch
in
other
thinges
which
I
haue
not
spoken
of
.
And
then
he
shal
haue
good
occasion
to
condemne
him self
:
and
shall
not
dare
to
open
his
mouth
to
defende
him
.
But
because
there
be
some
which
thinke
all
good
ynoughe
when
they
haue
some
excuse
,
as
it
were
a
buckler
for
to
put
before
them
.
A
man
must
beat
out
of
their
handes
all
that
wherewith
they
were
wont
to
arme
,
and
helpe
them selues
.
It
is
a
very
commun
thinge
to
alledg
th
exemple
of
Naaman
the
chief
Capitayne
of
the
kynge
of
the
I
haue
hearde
some
also
alledge
that
that
is
on
this
wyse
written
in
the
Epistle
that
is
ascribed
vnto
Ieremye
,
And
I
praye
you
,
he
that
outwardly
doth
honour
vnto
Idoles
,
how
can
he
saye
in
his
hert
that
vnto
God
he
ought
to
doo
it
:
except
he
do
accuse
his
owne
dede
and
condempne
him selfe
before
the
iudgement
of
God
?
As
for
me
,
I
require
not
of
the
faithfull
,
that
when
thei
see
the
Papistes
beare
about
their
reliques
and
other
mamettes
,
that
they
shulde
snatche
them
oute
of
their
handes
or
els
cast
dirte
at
theym
,
for
it
belongeth
vnto
Princes
and
hygher
powers
to
correct
suche
abhominacions
:
but
that
they
do
absteyne
from
fylinge
them selues
with
them
And
seynge
they
maye
not
be
suffred
to
worshyp
God
openly
that
they
do
yet
at
the
least
glorifye
God
in
their
hartes
and
absteyn
from
outwarde
Idolatry
.
Th
exemple
of
S.
Paule
lykewyse
,
whiche
they
alledge
,
hath
a
lytle
more
apparance
with
it
,
but
it
serueth
them
moche
lesse
then
that
same
of
Naaman
,
which
we
haue
proued
to
serue
them
nothinge
at
all
.
Now
to
see
whether
it
be
so
or
no
,
we
must
fyrst
vnderstand
what
it
is
to
offende
,
for
when
S.
Paul
vseth
thys
worde
,
offende
,
he
signifieth
the
troublyng
of
a
conscience
wherby
it
is
letted
to
come
vnto
Iesus
Christ
or
cause
to
fall
or
drawe
backe
from
hym
,
now
when
he
handeleth
thys
matter
of
whiche
we
speake
of
,
he
commaundeth
vs
to
be
well
ware
that
we
offend
no
man
,
well
how
is
that
?
Take
hede
(
sayth
he
)
that
thou
eatest
not
of
the
Offerynges
made
vnto
Idolles
in
the
presence
of
a
weake
person
that
is
scrupulous
,
Now
,
we
see
the
marke
whervnto
we
must
haue
an
eye
,
when
we
go
aboute
to
auoide
offence
,
it
is
that
we
gyue
not
an
occasion
vnto
our
neyghboure
to
be
edyfyed
in
euyll
,
nor
yet
gyue
hym
any
euyll
example
,
neither
to
say
or
do
any
thynge
,
where
by
he
myght
euer
the
soner
,
go
out
of
the
ryght
waye
.
Where
vpon
,
it
is
easy
for
vs
to
iudge
,
whether
that
they
whych
bow
them selues
vnto
Idolles
,
and
by
their
dissemblynge
of
theyr
christianyte
dishonour
god
,
do
,
by
thys
meanes
auoyde
offendynge
?
Fyrste
,
they
shew
them selues
that
they
haue
no
great
zeale
vnto
the
glory
of
god
,
the
whiche
they
do
dishonoure
so
.
Then
do
they
entyce
other
to
doe
the
same
.
I
speake
of
the
feble
and
symple
oons
,
whyche
haue
already
some
taste
of
the
truth
.
And
where
as
otherwise
they
wolde
make
conscience
to
defile
them selues
with
Idolatry
,
they
do
take
courage
and
boldnes
,
through
their
example
.
Fynally
,
they
confyrme
the
vnbeleuers
and
harden
them
in
their
errours
.
If
this
be
not
to
offende
,
I
confesse
that
I
am
oute
of
my
wytte
.
It
is
very
trewe
in
dede
,
that
they
do
not
offend
the
worldly
people
or
do
runne
into
their
displeasure
:
neither
do
they
prouoke
any
person
for
to
persecute
them
,
nor
giue
them
any
occasion
for
to
murmur
or
crye
out
againste
them
.
But
in
norysshyng
of
all
Idolatry
thorow
their
faynyng
,
they
be
the
cause
that
breaketh
his
necke
,
other
be
greuously
hurte
,
some
do
fall
&
some
be
caused
to
halt
,
or
else
to
wander
out
of
the
right
way
.
And
by
this
meanes
they
altogyther
,
euen
from
the
fyrst
vnto
the
last
be
blynde
and
leaders
of
the
blynd
,
for
in
folowing
one
an
other
lyke
Cranes
,
they
doo
seduce
or
leade
an
other
oute
of
the
ryghte
way
.
For
as
moche
as
neuer
a
one
of
them
doth
folow
the
worde
of
God
whyche
is
the
onely
true
rule
.
Moreouer
we
muste
note
,
that
when
S.
Paule
byddeth
vs
to
condiscende
vnto
the
rudenes
or
infirmite
of
our
neighbours
that
we
gyue
them
none
offence
,
he
wolde
not
that
we
should
do
any
euyll
thyng
,
for
to
do
them
pleasure
with
al
:
or
else
vse
any
dissimulacion
,
that
is
not
lawfull
for
vs
:
but
that
in
all
indyfferente
thynges
whyche
God
hath
lefte
in
our
lybertye
,
and
whiche
of
them selues
be
but
good
,
we
shoulde
,
haue
respecte
vnto
them
,
and
not
to
trouble
them
.
Wherfore
the
fyrst
foundacion
shulde
be
euer
to
consydre
whether
the
thynge
where
of
we
entreate
,
be
letfe
vs
free
,
that
we
myghte
vse
it
in
one
sorte
or
other
puerly
with
out
offendyng
god
,
that
is
to
say
,
to
do
a
dede
or
leue
it
vndone
,
to
vse
a
thing
or
to
absteyn
from
it
.
Now
to
include
ydolatry
in
this
row
,
it
is
to
no
purpose
.
Therfore
in
as
moch
as
to
counterfaict
in
such
sort
that
one
shuld
commit
all
abhomynation
,
is
agaynst
the
expresse
prohibition
of
god
,
there
is
no
reason
at
all
,
to
brynge
forthe
offence
,
to
be
an
excuse
in
this
behalfe
.
Now
,
they
that
see
me
to
be
more
indyfferente
perceyuyng
them selues
to
be
voyde
of
all
lawfull
excuses
,
do
not
wholely
defende
that
thys
is
well
done
or
that
it
is
no
synne
to
commit
Idolatry
,
for
the
feare
of
men
:
but
do
alledge
that
it
is
a
small
faulte
and
easy
to
be
pardoned
,
when
the
hert
is
not
there
wyth
and
therfore
that
it
is
to
passe
all
measure
,
for
to
reproue
it
so
bytterly
.
And
for
to
gyue
some
shewe
vnto
theyr
sayeng
,
they
doo
obiect
,
that
there
be
many
vices
remaynyng
in
the
world
moch
more
greuous
then
that
the
whiche
ought
to
be
reproued
fyrste
of
all
.
And
therfore
men
ought
not
to
begynne
at
thys
smal
infirmyte
(
as
they
do
take
it
)
yf
we
wyll
not
folow
the
hypocrisy
of
the
Pharyses
which
swalowed
vp
an
whole
Camel
and
strayned
the
lyttle
pieces
there
of
throughe
a
seife
.
Now
,
to
th
entente
that
we
dysceyue
not
oure selues
,
we
ought
not
onely
,
to
loke
vnto
the
thyng
commaunded
or
forbydden
:
but
vnto
god
whiche
speaketh
,
in
so
moche
that
we
can
not
disobeye
hys
worde
wythoute
dyspysynge
of
hys
maiestye
.
Therfore
it
is
after
hys
hyghnes
,
that
we
ought
to
esteme
th
offence
,
&
in
so
doing
,
it
shal
neuer
seme
smal
to
vs
.
For
this
cause
,
he
sayth
by
hys
prophete
zachary
.
Now
,
to
shew
,
what
offence
it
is
to
fayle
in
any
poyncte
,
he
sendeth
vs
vnto
God
whiche
gaue
the
lawe
,
as
thoughe
he
wold
say
,
that
the
faulte
ought
to
be
measured
and
wayed
by
this
that
we
do
agaynst
the
wil
of
god
,
euen
by
contempte
,
as
it
were
,
settyng
nothynge
by
hys
seueritie
,
as
moche
as
is
in
vs
.
Wherfore
our
lord
Iesus
Crist
reprouynge
the
hypocrisy
of
the
Scrybes
and
pharisees
:
Thus
,
euery
thyng
that
man
doth
agaynst
the
wyll
of
god
in
one
sorte
or
other
,
indifferently
ought
to
be
rebuked
and
vehemently
reproued
.
For
in
this
do
we
shew
our selues
to
fere
hym
and
that
we
wyl
be
subiecte
vnto
hym
,
yf
that
we
do
not
omyt
one
onely
tytle
of
all
that
he
commaundeth
.
How
be
it
,
I
wolde
fayne
knowe
what
reason
it
is
,
to
call
outwarde
Idolatry
one
of
the
smalleste
offences
that
a
man
may
do
.
Some
man
wyll
say
vnto
me
,
it
is
bicause
I
haue
not
the
wyll
or
th
entente
to
do
it
,
but
do
it
by
constraynt
,
desyrynge
to
doo
otherwyse
,
yf
I
myght
be
suffered
.
I
wyll
axe
of
hym
then
that
sayth
so
.
My
frende
,
yf
that
thou
for
feare
of
dysplesure
,
or
for
drede
of
some
daunger
,
dost
a
greate
outrage
or
vylanye
to
thy
father
,
shouldeste
thou
therfore
be
holden
excused
?
And
howe
moche
lesse
oughtest
thou
to
dishonor
God
by
prophanyng
or
vnhalowing
hys
holy
name
,
by
gyuyng
glorye
vnto
a
Mammet
.
Thou
art
constrayned
(
thou
sayest
)
thinkest
thou
then
that
he
estemeth
not
moche
more
hys
glory
,
than
thy
life
&c.
But
for
to
put
away
all
contentions
altercations
,
I
desyre
all
them
whyche
be
holden
in
suche
erroure
,
that
they
wyll
bethynke
them
a
lytle
,
if
it
be
a
lyght
faulte
to
maynteyne
that
by
which
S.
Paul
saithe
.
That
god
is
prouoked
euen
agaynst
one
which
wolde
fyght
agaynst
hym
,
by
which
he
saith
,
that
Iesus
Christe
is
offended
that
one
forsaketh
hys
holy
table
,
Thus
,
bycause
of
the
double
offence
that
folowed
of
their
acte
,
he
threteneth
them
so
sharply
.
And
what
do
thei
now
a
daies
that
be
conformable
to
the
papistes
in
their
folysshnesse
?
Let
vs
all
wayes
take
the
Masse
for
an
example
.
They
know
well
,
that
it
is
an
abhomynation
set
vp
as
it
were
in
the
dispite
of
god
,
they
knowe
well
for
what
purpose
the
people
come
togyther
there
,
&
if
there
were
none
other
thyng
there
:
they
knowe
that
men
do
worshyp
there
an
Idol
,
lyftyng
vp
a
piece
of
bread
in
the
steade
of
God
whyle
they
knowe
this
well
ynough
,
do
they
not
yet
make
as
though
they
worshipped
it
as
other
men
do
?
Wolde
not
they
that
men
shoulde
thynke
that
they
do
it
of
good
deuotion
.
In
thys
doyng
(
I
pray
them
)
do
they
not
lay
forth
the
glory
of
God
to
be
mocked
of
the
wicked
?
Do
not
they
offende
the
weake
by
gyuyng
them
an
euil
example
with
castynge
them
in
doubte
&
scrupulosite
that
they
wote
not
what
to
beleue
?
It
is
but
loste
labour
then
for
them
to
go
aboute
to
make
a
lyghte
matter
of
it
,
which
we
see
to
be
so
sharpely
reproued
of
God
.
And
yet
that
more
is
,
it
is
a
knowen
thynge
,
that
the
Masse
is
taken
of
the
enymyes
of
Iesus
Christe
as
a
gage
for
to
bynde
men
to
lyue
in
their
vngodlines
:
and
to
serue
theyr
tyranny
.
For
yf
any
man
go
vnto
the
Masse
deuoutly
,
he
is
taken
for
a
good
and
a
laudable
supporter
of
Antichriste
,
contrariwyse
,
to
dyspyse
the
Masse
is
as
it
ware
to
forsake
the
kyngdome
off
the
Pope
.
Seyng
that
it
is
so
,
that
a
christyan
man
in
goynge
to
the
Masse
,
doth
gyue
a
testymonie
and
make
a
profession
that
he
wyll
lyue
in
Idolatry
,
&
maynteyne
th
abomynations
whiche
raigne
thys
day
in
the
worlde
,
is
not
the
same
a
cloked
forsakynge
of
Iesus
Christe
,
and
a
playne
denyeng
of
hys
gospell
by
crafte
?
What
answere
wyll
they
make
me
vnto
this
,
whych
wolde
coloure
their
synne
and
bycause
they
can
not
make
it
altogyther
whyte
,
they
wolde
by
some
meanes
darken
it
,
that
it
should
not
appeare
at
all
.
I
say
that
we
ought
not
to
esteme
the
Masse
alonly
in
it self
:
but
with
all
the
circumstances
and
all
the
inconueniences
that
folowe
it
.
I
saye
further
,
that
the
inconueniences
be
suche
,
that
there
a
man
maketh
an
obligation
for
to
approue
,
retaine
,
and
folowe
the
present
estate
of
the
popysh
churche
,
which
all
Christen
men
ought
to
abhorre
and
defye
,
yf
they
can
assoyle
me
this
argument
with
a
good
conscience
&
without
sophistry
,
I
discharge
them
,
but
that
will
not
be
this
yere
.
I
will
yet
recite
vnto
this
purpose
for
the
further
confirmation
thereof
,
an
History
that
is
in
Iosephus
and
in
the
boke
of
the
Machabees
,
Now
,
after
all
these
cauyllations
be
beaten
downe
,
my
Lady
worldely
wysdome
cometh
in
wyth
her
fyue
egges
,
bryngynge
in
a
perylouse
reason
.
What
good
shold
come
of
it
,
yf
euerye
one
wolde
declare
hym selfe
for
to
serue
God
puerly
?
I
answere
wyth
one
woord
,
that
yf
it
pleased
God
,
there
myght
folow
of
it
moche
persecution
,
and
that
some
myghte
be
constrayned
to
flee
,
forsakynge
all
theyr
goodes
:
eyther
myghte
be
poyncted
at
with
the
fynger
some
put
in
pryson
,
oother
banysshed
,
yea
,
and
some
myghte
lose
their
lyues
.
I
vnderstand
,
euen
as
I
haue
sayde
yf
that
God
wolde
suffer
it
,
but
we
ought
to
gyue
this
honour
vnto
God
,
to
commit
vnto
him
al
that
might
come
of
it
:
trusting
that
he
wolde
so
order
the
matter
,
that
he
euyll
(
whiche
we
feared
)
shuld
not
come
to
passe
for
this
is
the
refuge
,
wher
vnto
our
father
Abraham
bryngeth
vs
by
hys
example
,
Then
will
he
make
the
waye
wyder
,
onely
let
vs
doo
what
oure
Lorde
God
byddeth
vs
,
and
in
what
peryll
so
euer
we
be
,
he
shall
surely
helpe
vs
.
Aboue
all
thinge
the
lorde
God
loueth
this
confydence
,
that
when
we
kepe
his
commaundementes
,
we
do
commit
th
ende
vnto
his
prouidence
,
and
that
our
spirite
do
quietly
rest
vpon
the
same
.
But
yf
that
a
thousande
perylles
do
present
them selues
before
our
eyes
in
suche
wyse
that
we
knowe
not
whiche
way
to
wynde
vs
:
shall
we
therfore
say
,
that
goddes
commaundement
is
in
vaine
,
and
that
it
can
take
no
more
place
?
No
,
but
we
know
that
it
ought
not
to
be
vyolate
nor
broken
,
though
heauen
and
earth
shold
go
together
.
Neuertheles
,
belly
wisdome
wyll
not
that
it
be
thus
answered
,
for
she
obiecteth
an
other
inconuenyence
,
that
yf
euerye
man
shoulde
wythdrawe
hym selfe
from
Idolatrye
.
Fyrste
all
landes
where
Antichrist
reygneth
,
shulde
be
destitute
of
faithfull
people
.
Secondarely
,
that
when
they
be
departed
frome
the
place
where
they
were
,
they
shoulde
not
knowe
where
to
dwell
,
consyderinge
the
regions
where
God
is
purely
called
vpon
,
can
not
holde
them
with
the
inhabitauntes
that
be
there
alredy
.
I
answer
,
that
this
,
feare
is
verye
vayne
,
for
yf
that
all
they
,
whome
our
Lorde
hathe
illuminated
,
with
one
accorde
and
commune
consent
,
were
so
stronge
rather
for
to
dye
or
to
leaue
all
togyther
,
then
to
defyle
them selues
with
wycked
superstityons
,
he
wolde
helpe
them
by
some
meane
that
we
know
not
of
:
for
eyther
he
wold
conuerte
the
hertes
of
the
princes
and
of
the
Magistrates
,
&
moue
them
to
put
downe
al
Idolatrye
,
and
set
vp
the
true
seruice
and
worshippinge
of
God
,
or
els
at
the
least
wolde
mollyfye
them
so
,
that
they
wold
not
constrayne
the
poore
faithfull
people
for
to
defile
them selues
against
their
consciences
,
nor
vse
no
more
suche
crueltye
against
them
.
Furthermore
,
that
we
enter
no
further
in
disputation
,
I
saye
that
we
shall
not
now
doubt
,
that
euery
one
will
trusse
vp
his
baggage
for
to
set
forwarde
.
For
alwayes
thus
will
the
worlde
good
,
that
some
shall
haue
their
eyes
so
blynded
that
they
can
not
perceyue
in
what
myre
and
fylthines
they
lye
in
:
&
other
,
althoughe
they
do
so
,
&
acknowledge
the
miserable
estate
wherein
they
be
,
shall
neuertheles
behold
in
through
the
infirmite
of
the
fleshe
for
to
abyde
there
still
.
And
some
shal
be
so
wrapped
with
dyuerse
cares
and
burdens
,
that
they
can
not
auoyde
it
,
al
be
it
they
wolde
fayne
do
it
.
But
it
is
very
lykly
(
wil
some
man
say
)
that
thei
which
haue
the
better
zeale
&
more
knowledge
for
to
edifye
other
,
will
go
their
waye
:
what
will
come
of
this
then
;
how
can
the
doctrine
of
that
gospel
be
multiplied
,
yf
the
sede
be
taken
awaye
?
To
this
I
answer
,
that
yf
euery
one
of
them
which
be
here
and
there
,
vnto
whom
oure
Lorde
hath
geuen
the
knowledge
of
his
truthe
,
dyd
but
the
half
of
his
dutie
to
his
power
,
that
there
shoulde
not
be
one
corner
of
the
worlde
which
should
not
be
fylled
ther
with
.
The
fault
is
,
that
there
is
no
boldnes
nor
courage
in
the
moste
parte
,
but
yet
althoughe
all
they
that
coulde
not
lyue
in
one
Contrey
wyth
a
quiet
conscience
,
bycause
they
myght
not
lyue
after
Goddes
worde
,
dyd
departe
away
,
thynke
we
that
the
seede
of
God
should
vtterly
be
extyncte
?
We
shoulde
rather
hope
,
that
god
in
the
stead
of
one
,
wolde
rayse
vp
fower
.
In
conclusion
,
we
shal
be
alwaes
fooles
,
so
longe
as
we
wyll
reason
againste
God
.
I
know
also
,
that
there
be
some
which
think
to
cleare
them selues
very
wel
by
sayenge
,
that
it
is
an
eaysye
thyng
for
me
to
say
thus
seyng
I
am
far
from
daunger
:
but
that
if
I
were
in
their
place
,
I
wold
not
be
so
hotte
,
but
wold
do
as
they
doo
.
I
answere
,
that
I
say
none
other
thyng
,
but
that
whych
my
conscience
constrayneth
me
to
speake
:
and
that
,
yf
I
wolde
say
other
wise
,
I
should
wickedly
blaspheme
the
truth
.
Wherfore
,
if
I
were
in
a
place
where
I
thought
that
I
shoulde
not
auoyd
Idolatry
without
daunger
,
I
wold
pray
our
lord
,
that
he
wolde
strengthen
me
:
and
that
he
wolde
gyue
me
this
constancy
to
prefarre
(
as
reason
requireth
)
his
glorye
,
before
myne
owne
lyfe
,
&
I
hope
that
he
wolde
not
forsake
me
.
Neuerthelesse
,
let
vs
leaue
to
dispute
what
I
wolde
do
,
for
I
do
not
boaste
my selfe
:
but
do
onely
shewe
that
,
which
as
wel
I
my self
,
as
euery
man
ought
to
do
.
And
therfore
,
whosoeuer
dyd
otherwyse
(
were
it
I
my selfe
or
anye
other
)
he
were
to
be
reproued
.
But
what
doth
it
helpe
them
for
to
loke
vpon
me
If
I
do
otherwyse
then
I
haue
preached
,
wo
be
vnto
me
:
for
as
moche
as
I
shulde
condempne
my selfe
by
myne
owne
mouth
.
But
are
they
therfore
to
be
excused
?
let
euery
body
proue
his
owne
worke
,
Furthermore
,
to
the
intente
they
shoulde
not
saye
,
these
be
wordes
,
but
fynde
me
one
(
I
praye
you
)
that
doth
so
.
I
requyre
nothynge
off
theym
,
but
to
folowe
that
whyche
so
manye
thousande
Martyres
haue
done
before
vs
,
men
and
Women
,
Ryche
and
Poore
,
greate
and
small
.
This
doctryne
then
is
no
speculation
,
that
I
haue
inuented
,
euer
the
soner
because
I
my selfe
am
(
as
I
and
they
do
thynke
)
safe
and
well
at
ease
/
but
it
is
the
same
whyche
the
holye
Martyres
of
oure
Lorde
Iesus
Christe
/
haue
occupyed
theym selues
wyth
in
the
myddes
of
the
tormentes
that
they
suffered
.
And
by
thys
medytation
they
were
strengthened
&
holpen
to
ouercome
the
dred
and
feare
of
prisonnes
,
of
rackinge
,
of
the
fier
,
of
the
gallouse
,
of
the
sweard
,
&
of
all
other
kyndes
of
death
.
If
they
had
not
had
thys
thorowly
prynted
in
their
hartes
,
that
it
were
better
for
them
to
dye
an
hundred
tymes
,
then
to
do
any
thynge
agaynst
the
honoure
of
God
,
they
had
neuer
had
the
courage
,
to
present
them selues
vnto
the
death
,
for
to
confesse
the
christian
faith
:
but
they
wolde
rather
haue
suffered
them selues
to
be
induced
for
to
honour
Idolles
Now
,
their
conscience
is
not
recited
vnto
vs
,
onely
bycause
that
we
shoulde
prayse
it
:
but
that
it
myght
be
an
example
to
vs
,
and
that
we
forsake
not
the
veryte
whiche
they
dyd
so
manfullye
maynteyne
,
that
we
do
not
set
at
naught
,
nor
corrupte
the
glory
of
God
whiche
they
estemed
so
hyghely
,
that
they
shed
their
bloud
for
to
seale
and
confyrm
it
:
yf
thei
had
then
thought
it
lawful
to
escape
by
symulation
or
dissemblynge
,
when
men
wold
constrain
them
,
to
encline
vnto
Idolatry
:
then
had
it
been
now
no
nede
that
they
shoulde
haue
geuen
ouer
them selues
,
for
to
endure
such
tormentes
as
they
suffered
.
For
they
myghte
haue
worshipped
God
secretly
,
and
made
as
thoughe
they
had
worshyshypped
Idols
,
for
to
satisfy
their
persecuters
with
al.
But
they
haue
taught
vs
that
that
is
nothynge
else
but
moccage
,
to
pretende
that
a
man
doth
honoure
God
in
hys
hert
,
when
he
betrayeth
the
truthe
before
men
,
and
so
defyleth
his
honoure
by
gyuinge
it
vnto
Idolles
.
And
truelye
when
euerye
thynge
is
well
weyed
,
this
is
no
small
condempnation
vpon
vs
/
for
to
see
what
an
ardente
and
a
burnynge
zeale
the
holy
Martyrs
hadde
in
tymes
paste
in
comparison
of
the
cold
zeale
that
we
shewe
oure
selues
to
haue
,
for
by
and
by
as
soone
as
a
poore
man
in
those
dayes
hadde
but
onelye
a
lytle
taste
of
the
true
knowledge
oft
God
,
he
made
no
doubte
to
cast
him selfe
in
daunger
,
for
the
confession
of
hys
faythe
/
and
had
rather
to
be
slayne
quicke
then
to
counterfayte
or
dyssemble
so
moche
,
as
to
commytte
an
acte
of
anye
outwarde
Idolatrye
.
We
that
haue
so
greate
knowledge
,
whiche
shoulde
set
vs
on
fyer
,
be
more
colde
then
Ise
,
and
besydes
that
,
goo
aboute
to
excuse
or
iustyfye
oure selues
.
But
yf
we
doo
so
,
we
shall
heape
vnto
oure selues
a
more
greuouse
curse
and
prouoke
the
sorer
,
the
wrathe
of
God
vppon
our
headdes
,
and
let
euery
man
for
his
own
part
marke
this
diligently
.
Nowe
euen
as
hytherto
,
I
haue
foughten
agaynste
them
whiche
for
to
wasshe
and
iustyfye
them selues
,
doo
falsifye
the
truthe
of
God
,
or
for
to
extenuate
or
mynysh
their
faultes
,
do
derogation
vnto
the
maieste
of
his
word
,
and
diminish
th
auctorite
of
his
commandmentes
,
or
els
that
by
vayne
clokes
wold
excuse
themselues
,
that
it
myghte
be
lawful
for
them
,
to
do
euyll
,
and
no
man
to
reproue
them
.
So
on
thother
syde
,
it
is
good
reason
to
preuente
the
question
which
many
good
personnes
and
such
as
feare
God
myght
happen
to
aske
,
that
is
to
wytte
,
whether
that
I
do
reproue
and
condempne
all
the
faythfull
,
whiche
be
dyspersed
thorow
out
Fraunce
,
Italy
,
Englande
,
Flaunders
,
and
other
Realmes
:
in
as
moch
as
(
in
many
of
these
)
they
be
constrayned
to
vse
many
superstycious
ceremonies
.
Before
I
answere
to
this
question
,
I
protest
before
God
that
so
farre
is
it
of
that
I
do
delyte
to
rebuke
and
reproue
my
poor
brethren
which
be
in
such
captiuite
,
that
rather
for
the
pitie
and
compassion
that
I
haue
vpon
them
,
I
wolde
deuyse
some
way
to
excuse
them
:
but
yet
so
,
that
I
speake
as
my
conscience
doth
compell
me
to
say
,
yea
,
and
that
for
their
owne
health
.
And
after
that
I
haue
sayd
all
,
I
do
mourne
for
them
,
desyryng
God
that
he
wyll
conforte
them
:
touchyng
the
reprouynge
of
them
,
thys
is
not
my
mynde
,
where
as
I
rebuke
any
vice
in
theym
,
therfore
to
condempne
their
personnes
:
God
knoweth
that
I
haue
this
estimation
of
many
that
be
dispersed
abrode
,
that
they
lyue
moch
more
holyly
than
I
do
,
and
in
greater
perfection
.
Moreouer
,
I
knowledge
and
consider
wel
that
it
is
a
greatter
and
more
excellent
vertu
for
than
to
kepe
them selues
in
the
feare
of
god
,
in
the
myddes
of
suche
of
confusion
,
than
I
which
haue
no
such
occasyon
,
and
am
not
so
moche
tempted
to
do
euell
:
but
contrarywyse
haue
dayely
the
worde
of
God
to
drawe
me
backe
.
In
lykewyse
,
yf
they
happen
to
fall
that
I
ought
to
beare
more
with
them
,
then
I
my selfe
ought
to
be
fauored
or
to
be
borne
with
.
Therfore
,
so
farre
is
it
of
,
that
I
do
reiecte
them
,
as
thoughe
I
shulde
not
take
them
for
brethren
:
in
that
I
do
els
laude
&
prayse
them
before
God
and
also
before
men
,
countinge
them
more
worthy
to
haue
a
place
in
the
churche
of
God
than
I
:
let
vs
set
asyde
then
this
false
opinion
,
that
I
wolde
exclude
them
frome
the
nombre
of
the
faithfull
,
or
compte
them
for
no
Christian
men
.
Neuerthelesse
,
thoughe
I
haue
their
personnes
in
suche
honoure
and
reputation
,
yet
I
cease
not
(
yf
I
see
any
vice
in
them
)
for
to
iudge
it
euyll
:
for
althoughe
a
man
be
very
faithfull
,
yet
one
can
not
saye
,
that
all
his
workes
be
good
and
laudable
:
it
is
possible
they
maye
fynde
other
fautes
in
me
,
let
theym
condempne
theym
in
the
name
of
God
:
but
let
it
not
be
of
euell
will
or
throughe
the
desyre
to
disprayse
or
backbyte
me
,
or
for
to
reuenge
them
selues
thorowe
accusynge
me
agayne
.
That
notwithstanding
,
let
them
receyue
this
correction
with
humblenes
,
yf
they
wil
shewe
theym selues
to
be
the
children
of
God
:
or
elles
they
shall
declare
them selues
to
be
led
wyth
a
spirite
of
rebellyon
,
and
bytternesse
:
seynge
that
theye
wolde
not
receyue
the
truthe
.
But
one
,
wyll
demaunde
of
me
,
what
counsell
then
I
wold
gyue
a
faythfull
person
that
dwelleth
so
in
some
Egipt
,
or
in
som
Babylon
,
in
the
which
he
is
not
suffered
to
worshyp
God
puerly
:
but
is
constrayned
after
the
common
fasshyon
to
conforme
hym selfe
vnto
euyll
vsages
.
The
fyrst
were
,
that
he
shold
get
hym
from
thence
if
he
can
,
for
all
thynges
well
rekened
&
debated
,
happy
is
he
that
is
far
from
suche
abhomynations
,
for
as
moche
as
it
is
verye
harde
to
be
so
nyghe
and
not
to
be
defyled
wyth
them
.
Let
hym
then
drawe
hym selfe
vnto
the
place
where
he
shall
not
be
constrayned
to
medle
with
suche
fylthinesse
:
nor
yet
to
blaspheme
the
name
of
god
,
nor
his
worde
,
by
holdynge
his
peace
and
dissemblynge
as
though
he
consented
on
the
other
syde
,
where
as
he
myght
be
suffered
to
make
profession
of
his
christian
faithe
,
in
the
assemble
of
christian
people
,
to
be
partaker
of
the
holy
doctryne
of
the
gospell
,
to
haue
the
pure
and
wholsome
vse
of
the
Sacraments
,
to
haue
his
part
of
the
common
prayers
.
Here
,
haue
ye
my
opynion
,
what
were
best
to
be
done
:
but
yf
anye
man
fynde
no
waye
to
get
oute
,
I
wolde
counsell
hym
to
loke
,
whether
it
were
not
possyble
for
hym
,
to
absteyne
from
all
Idolatry
,
and
to
kepe
hym selfe
pure
and
vndefyled
towarde
God
,
as
well
in
body
,
as
in
soule
.
Then
,
that
he
worshipped
god
priuately
,
desiryng
hym
that
he
wyll
restoore
hys
poore
Churche
vnto
her
ryght
estate
.
Fynally
,
that
he
doo
hys
dilygence
for
to
instructe
and
edyfye
the
poore
Ignoraunte
,
as
moch
as
he
may
:
if
he
abiect
that
he
can
not
do
thys
wyth
out
daunger
of
deth
.
I
graunt
it
:
but
the
glory
of
God
where
of
we
intreate
now
,
oughte
to
be
more
precious
vnto
vs
then
this
vayne
and
transitory
lyfe
whiche
(
to
saye
the
truth
)
is
nothyng
but
a
shadow
.
I
knowe
,
what
the
moste
parte
wyll
say
vnto
me
,
alas
it
is
very
truth
that
we
ought
to
prefer
God
before
all
thynges
:
but
we
haue
no
suche
strength
nor
constancy
,
where
we
haue
father
and
mother
whyche
do
retayn
vs
here
,
wher
we
haue
charge
of
householde
,
how
can
we
well
get
awaye
?
Vnto
this
I
say
,
for
as
moche
as
their
infirmytie
doth
let
them
,
to
folow
the
counsell
whyche
they
doo
acknowledge
to
be
moste
sure
and
healthful
,
that
for
as
moch
as
for
the
feare
of
men
they
do
bow
from
the
ryght
way
,
they
oughte
to
confesse
their
synne
before
God
:
and
wyth
teares
and
syghes
to
bewayle
it
,
accusynge
them selues
in
the
steade
of
iustifyeng
.
Then
,
I
do
admonysshe
theym
that
by
custome
they
sleape
not
in
theyr
euyll
:
but
from
daye
to
day
,
endeuer
them selues
to
myslyke
them selues
and
to
be
sory
,
that
they
may
obteyn
mercy
before
god
.
Then
,
afterwarde
to
desyre
,
their
good
father
(
for
as
moche
as
hys
offyce
is
,
to
redeme
prysoners
)
that
he
wyll
once
draw
them
out
of
bondage
:
or
els
prepare
a
ryght
form
of
the
church
thorow
oute
all
the
world
,
that
they
may
gyue
hym
the
honor
,
that
belongeth
vnto
hym
.
Fynally
,
to
seke
all
the
wayes
possyble
,
to
gette
out
of
this
myre
,
and
this
myserable
and
cursed
estate
,
where
in
they
bee
:
and
take
those
same
meanes
which
shal
be
offered
vnto
them
,
that
they
may
shew
that
it
was
for
no
hypocrysy
,
that
they
desired
of
God
delyuerance
:
yf
all
men
wolde
thus
do
their
dyligence
,
I
doubte
not
,
but
that
our
lord
wolde
worke
,
otherwyse
then
he
dothe
,
for
to
destroy
all
abhomynations
and
Idolatry
,
that
raigne
vpon
the
earthe
.
But
bycause
we
fele
not
our
mysery
nor
be
not
touched
with
it
,
as
we
oughte
to
be
:
but
rather
as
indurate
persons
,
do
not
passe
vpon
the
matter
/
it
is
no
maruell
,
that
he
doth
thus
suffer
vs
,
so
long
to
corrupte
,
in
our
fylthines
.
It
is
to
be
feared
,
if
we
do
not
bethink
vs
the
sooner
,
that
he
wyll
let
vs
roote
altogether
therein
.
