It

The

is
of
Pharao

Vnto
the
which

that

To

I
woulde
demaunde

willingly

if
it
doth

and
if
they

doe
it

Secondly

if

Otherwise
he
that

did

certeine
of

and
the

at

Mountaine

that

be

not
onely
vnto
the

estraungers
and
others
:
but
also
vnto
the
auncient

of

There
would
be
also
daunger
,
or
it
is
to
be
feared
that
ceasing
the
exercise
of
the
religion
,
ther
would
happen
that
which
is
written
in
the
booke
of
Iudges
:
that
is
to
saye
,
Not
without
cause
the
Lorde
hath
established
his
temple
,
&
ordeined
his
ceremonies
in
Ierusalem
,
the
chiefe
citie
of

Iuda
,
for
to
repr●sse
the
sinnes
of
his

,
and
to
holde
and
kéepe
them
in
the
obedience
of
his
holy
precepts
&
commaundements

The
which
ought
to
serue
for
an
example
vnto
all
true
Princes
,
for
to
establish
&
mainteine
the
exercise
of

,
I
doe
meane
that
,
in
the
which
the
woord
of
the
Lord
doth
sound
daily
,
and
is
purely
and
rightly
administred
:
for
in
that
point
doth
consist
their
power
,
aucthoritie
and
greatnesse
.
S.
Peter
in
his
time
did
deplore
&
lament
,
after
the
saying
of
the
prophet
Dauid
:
Why
do
the
heathen
rage
together
&
why
do
the
people
imagine
vaine
things
:
And
we
must
not
héere
excuse
our selues
vnder
colour
of
some
(
yea
of
the
most
greatest
part
of
the
people
)
speaking
against
the
Edict
and
statute
of
the
king
,
for
the
gift
to
interprete
the
scriptures
,
or
to
sée
&
perceiue
the
differences
which
are
done
in
the
church
,
is
a
light
and
knoweledge
which
the
Lorde
hath
printed
and
imbraced
in
the
heartes
of
the
true
and
faythfull
Christians
,
and
of
those
whiche
of
redie
courage
and
frée
will
,
do
beléeue
the
word
of
God
.
And
it
is
not
bounde
or
tied
to
the
number
of
personnes
,
aucthoritie
or
greatnesse
.
According
to
that
which
Iesus
Christ
did
promise
his
Apostels
in
Saint
Iohn
,
It
is
not
then
in
the
number
of
persons
,
that
we
must
way
the
dooing
of
the
Religion
,
but
to
the
aucthoritie
of
the
scripture
and
to
the
aduise
of
those
,
which
with
a
good
conscience
doe
bring
an
eminent
and
ouerpassing
knowledge
.
Euen
so
the
auncients
in
the
primitiue
Church
do
condempne
Samosetanus
and
Arrius
,
&
do
take
none
other
iudges
for
to
discerne
&
perceiue
the
differences
then
the
word
of
God
,
with
the
consenting
of
those
which
haue
béene
Disciples
or
successours
of
the
Apostles
:
I
doe
meane
Policarpus
,
Ireneus
,
and
Denis
Nereus
.
For
whosoeuer
will
haue
regarde
in
that
matter
to
the
number
of
persons
,
he
must
preferre
the
opinion
of
the
Scribes
and
Pharisies
vnto
that
of
Marie
,
Anna
,
Simeon
,
Elizabeth
,
and
Zacharie
.
Bicause
that
the
Scribes
&
Pharisies
,
were
more
in
number
then
those
which
did
holde
of
the
part
of
Iesus
Christ
.
And
our
enimies
do
abuse
themselues
greatly
,
to
thinke
to
stay
or
kéepe
backe
the
course
or
passage
of
the
gospell
,
or
to
winne
vs
to
their
Romish
Church
,
hindering
the
exercise
of
our
religion
:
For
if
our
exile
,
losse
of
our
goods
,
and
so
much
shedding
of
bloud
thorowe
out
all
the
Realme
,
could
not
force
or
compell
euen
there
,
the
true
Christians
,
to
make
them
cleaue
or
sticke
to
the
Romish
religion
,
so
much
lesse
shal
it
serue
to
depriue
vs
from
the
exercise
of
the
religion
,
which
hath
bene
permitted
vs
with
good
deliberation
&
aduise
of
counsell
.
And
when
we
shal
be
driuen
or
chased
into
straunge
countries
,
yet
truely
,
And
to
the
end
not
to
dissemble
and
cloke
that
déede
,
what
is
he
that
will
binde
that

that
the

woulde
shewe

euen
to
the
vttermost
endes
of
the
earth
?
Who
shall
stay
or
let
that

which
hee
hath
shed
abrode
as
a
water
floude

Vnto

to
the
end
that

if

you
harden

Nowe

¶
Therfore
we
labour
and
suffer
rebuke
,
bicause
we
beleeue
in
the
liuing
God
,
which
is
the
sauiour
of
all
men
,
but
especially
of
all
those
that
beleeue
.
IT
is
most
euident
and
knowen
by
the
discourse
of
the
holy
scripture
,
that
as
the
Lord
is
true
,
entire
&
perfect
,
so
doth
hée
require
of
vs
an
acknowledging
of
him
,
neither
fained
nor
cloked
.
That
is
the
cause
wherfore
he
did
regard
rather
the
sacrifice
of
Abel
then
of
Cain
,
In
the
same
respect
,
also
we
do
greatly
abhorre
,
those
which
do
mingle
the
sacrifice
of
the
liuing
God
,
with
that
of
Baal
:
the
doings
of
the
Iewes
,
with
the
fame
of
the
Samaritans
:
the
baptisme
with
the
circumcision
:
the
Christian
lawe
,
with
that
of
Antichrist
.
And
yet
at
this
day
we
shall
finde
more
straunge
,
that
vnder
colour
of
some
ordinarie
tribute
:
they
doe
suffer
vnpunished
,
the
Iewes
with
the
Christians
:
the
common
harlots
,
with
the
married
women
,
the
Temples
consecrated
vnto
strange
&
vnknowen
Gods
,
among
the
middest
of
the
Christian
Churches
.
But
for
all
that
it
followeth
not
that
they
ought
to
chase
&
driue
vs
out
of
the
realme
to
depriue
vs
from
our
goods
,
to
exile
and
banishe
vs
from
our
landes
:
to
conclude
,
to
force
vs
in
our
bodies
and
consciences
,
except
that
it
be
first
decided
and
determined
by
the
word
of
GOD
,
that
the
Romishe
Churche
is
the
true
Churche
:
on
the
contrarie
side
that
they
doe
knowe
by
the
same
Iudgement
that
ours
is
contrarie
vnto
the
true
Christian
Churche
.
For
as
the
Lorde
doth
sende
vs
by
his
Prophet
vnto
the
lawe
and
to
the
witnesse
,
And
euen
as
(
I
say
)
that
it
was
but
a
small
thing
that
the
Iewes
did
reproch
Iesus
,
that
he
was
a
Samaritane
and
had
the
deuill
.
And
it
shall
yet
lesse
serue
in
that
matter
to
alledge
vnto
vs
the
prescription
of
the
time
,
Hely
,
Adrian
Emperour
of
the
Romains
,
&
him
which
doth
call
himselfe
at
this
day
the
great
Lord.
That
is
then
without
any
purpose
to
conclude
that
we
must
be
exiled
from
our
countrie
,
bicause
they
cannot
suffer
two
religions
,
except
that
the
subporters
&
mainteiners
of
the
Romish
church
doe
confesse
by
the
same
meanes
,
that
the
truth
is
odious
vnto
them
.
To
conclude
,
the
confession
of
so
many
martyres
of
our
religion
ioyned
with
the
worde
of
God
,
doth
giue
most
sure
witnesse
that
wée
are
not
the
disciples
of
the
God
of
the
Gentiles
,
for
to
deceiue
men
through
ambiguitie
and
obscuritie

not
héere
compare
the
pollicie
and
rule
of
our
Church
,
vnto
that
of
the
Apostles
,
and
yet
lesse
the
manners
of
ours
,
to
the
life
of
them
:
I
doe
leaue
off
to
speake
to
them
,
which
with
right
conscience
,
doe
bring
some
meane
knowledge
to
the
holy
scripture
,
what
difference
there
is
betwéene
the
church
of
Iesus
Christ
,
&
that
of
Rome
,
what
deformitie
they
doe
finde

to
that

I
doe
meane
for
the
regard
and
respect
of
the
doctrine

pollicie

assuring
my selfe
in
that
matter
that
if
they
doe
consider
it
throughly
,
rightly
,
and
without
affection
,
they
shal
be
more
attentiue
to
correct
and
amende
their
owne
vices
,
then
enclyned
to
condempne
so
lightly
ours
.
Furthermore
,
it
is
easy
to
iudge
that
our
religion
is
neither
double
,
neither
fayned
,
in
that
chiefly
wée
do
holde
nothing
lesse
then
of
the

of
the

A

O

shed
out
thy

which

Giue

béeing
created
,
vnto
a
dignitie
and
singuler
perfection
,
Nero
,
Domitian
,
Herode
,
and
others
.
So
many
false
prophets
,
as
Simon
Magus
,
Iudas
,
Galileus
,
Therdas
:
&
after
the
Apostles
so
many
people
corrupt
in
the
lawe
and
manners
that
S.
Paule
did
exhort
his
for
to
beware
of
things
to
come
,
saying
:
The
same
doth
not
learne
or
teach
vs
therefore
to
blame
the
religion
of
the
LORD
,
Furthermore
,
not
to
way
or
measure
the
true
Christian
religion
to
the
opinion
of
men
:
but
to
the
rule
and
word
of
the
Lord
,
according
as
it
is
sayde
in
Moses
.
Euen
so
Aaron
suffered
the
people
rising
vp
against
him
:
And
truely
those
doe
abuse
themselues
greatly
,
which
of
the
same
do
thinck
to
make
a
citie
platonical
,
I
do
meane
which
are
an
example
of
all
infirmities
,
vices
and
imperfections
.
What
is
the
cause
that
we
are
not
ashamed
to
confesse
that
ther
are
in
vs
companies
of
the
immitators
&
folowers
of
Peter
,
aduowing
themselues
faithfull
seruants
of
the
Lord
,
And
wée
will
not
denie
that
one
can
not
méet
with
the
Nicodemians
the
secrete
disciples
of
Iesus
Christ
.
And
if
it
wer
néedeful
to
require
so
néere
,
they
should
ther
finde
of
Iudasses
,
which
do
marchaundise
and
sell
the
innocent
bloode
,
and
doe
betray
the
iust
for
money
.
What
shall
I
saye
more
,
And
besides
this
,
And
to
make
an
ende
of
this
matter
,
one
may
there
sée
a
thiefe
hanged
on
the
crosse
for
his
wickednesse
and
faultes
,
and
yet
accusing
the
iust
,
hauing
him
in
dysdaine
.
But
euen
as
Iesus
Christ
béeing
deliuered
to
death
by
the
Iewes
,
and
forsaken
of
his
Apostles
and
disciples
,
was
knowen
to
be
the
sonne
of
God
,
by
the
things
mute
and
without
vnderstanding
.
For
the
elements
forsaking
their
right
course
,
Furthermore
,
one
may
the
better
know
that
the
marks
of
the
true
christians
,
are
those
whereof
our
Lord
speaketh
of
in
Esay
saying
.
And
they
do
deceiue
themselues
greatly
,
if
they
do
thincke
that
for
their
euill
conuersations
onely
,
we
do
abandon
their
religon
,
for
although
that
for
such
things
,
the
name
of
the
Lord
is
blamed
not
among
the
christians
onely
,
That
is
the
cause
why
we
do
not
sée
any
other
thing
to
reigne
in
the
Romish
Church
,
then
an
excessiue
ambition
,
and
inordinate
desire
,
For
the
Christian
Church
is
not
bound
vnto
titles
,
nor
vnto
dignities
:
But
to
the
word
and
to
the
true
vsage
of
the
Sacraments
ordeined
of
the
Lord
,
nor
limitted
vnto
a
certeine
place
(
as
of
late
the
Iewes
did
referre
the
doings
of
their
religion
vnto
the
Temple
of
Salomon
,
the
benedictions
&
blessings
of
the
Lord
to
the
mount
Garizim
)
but
in
all
people
he
that
feareth
him
&
worketh
righteousnesse
,
What
shall
I
say
more
?
the
greatnesse
of
the
Christian
church
doth
not
consist
in
the
number
of
persons
,
I
do
say
moreouer
,
that
we
ought
not
to
applie
or
referre
the
christian
church
vnto
mans
commoditie
and
felicitie
.
For
in
the
lawe
of
nature
,
we
do
sée
an
Abel

figure
of
the
true
christians
put
to
death
,
and
killed
by
his
brother
:
Iohn
Baptist
put
to
death
by
king
Herod
.
For
all
the
same
we
haue
none
occasion
to
be
offended
or
to
be
angrie
with
our selues
,
seing
the
peace
of
the
wicked
and
vngodly
,
or
to
withdraw
vs
from
the
Christian
Church
,
for
the
aduersities
of
the
same
:
for
euen
as
in
the
time
of
the
vniuersal
floude
,
Wherefore
it
should
be
in
vaine
for
to
no
purpose
for
vs
,
here
to
alledge
the
magnificence
and
greatnesse
of
the
Romishe
Church
,
for
that
is
as
if
one
shoulde
leane
vppon
a
stafe

broken

that
is
to
say

Or

forasmuch
as
it
is
staied
vpon
the

which
abideth

But
we

rather
accuse
the
malice

those
which
do
rise
vp
against
vs
for
to
destroy
and
ruinate
that

not

by

coniunction
and
amitie
,
but
also
by
vnitie
of

For
as
Iesus
Christ
saith
,
And
that
the

is
greatly
odious
and
hatefull

,
Iesus

doth

but
we
do
exhort
the

not
to
abuse
the
giftes
of
GOD
,
through
vaine
glorie
or
contention
,
for
to
be
séene
and
estéemed
the
one
aboue
the
other
.
On
the
other
side
to
humble
them selues
vnder
the
wisedome
of
him
which
hath
saide
,
that
he
hath
not
determined
with
himselfe
to

any

,
The

doth
learne
vs
,
first
of
all
to
submitte
our selues
vnto
the
auncient
church
and
best
reformed
,
as
it
is
saide
in
Sainct
Iohn
,
Secondly
,
not
to
do
any
thing
,
Thirdly
,
not
to
presume
so
much
,
that
they
would
applie
and
referre
the
christian
doctrine
,
or
rule
the

to

to

originall
of

and
to

Finally

although

doe
come

,
as

.
As
the
Lord
doth
witnesse
vnto
vs
of
Saul
,
Also
a
vertuous
and
stout
prince
,
ought
not
indiscretly
,
to
repute
for
his
friendes
,
all
those
which
do
offer
themselues
sodeinly
to
his
friendship
:
But
to
consider
diligently
vnder
what
condition
they
do
bear
him
fauoure
.
That
is
the
cause
wherefore
Isocrates
.
Amonge
other
precepts
that
he
did
write
vnto
a
Prince
,
did
commende
vnto
him
three
thinges
aboue
all
others
:
First
,
Secondly
,
that
he
would
seperate
those
which
doe
flatter
him
by
some
kinde
of
deceipt
from
amonge
them
which
doe
honoure
him
by
amitie
:
Least
that
the
condition
of
the
wicked
should
be
better
then
that
of
the
good
people
.
Finally
,
that
he
doe
permitte
and
suffer
the
prudent
and
sage
people
to
speake
vnto
him
fréely
,
to
the
ende
that

haue

which

and
satisfie
him
.
And
truely
that
great
orator
of

Latines
hath
very
well
sayd
,
That
is
the
cause
wherfore
a
vertuous
prince
ought
to
be
prudent
euen
to
discerne
and
iudge
of
men
to
the
ende
not
to

all

which

Pius
Metellus

for
that

destroye
the
Citie
of

:
but
did
spare
it
.
As
also
Salust
Marius

,
By
what
excuse
can
a
christian
prince
excuse
himselfe
,
to
breake
the
fayth
that
he
hath
promised
vnto
his
subiectes
?
what
shall
I
say
,
if
the
Machebeans
To
conclude
,
if
the
ciuile
lawe
hath
saide
that
it
is
the
interest
of
a
Prince
to
haue
of
his
subiectes
riches
and
goodes
:
who
can
thinck
that
the
Christian
Prince
will
destroy
the
best
part
of
his
subiectes
,
for
to
fill
the
ambition
and
vnmesurable
couetuousnesse
of
some
of
his

?
The
histories
of
the

doe
teach
vs
that
Marcus
Marcellus
did
bewayle
bitterly
the
ruine
and
destruction
that
was
to
come
vppon
the
Citie
of
Syracusia
.
And
as
Sainct
Augustine
sayth
,
And
moreouer
we
do
warne
&
admonish
them
not
to
beléeue
too
lightlie
,
euerie

spirite
,
fearing
that
they
be
not
depriued
of

Furthermore

doe
beséech
them
to

howe

so
many

which

not

The

is

of

,
for

FOrasmuch
then
as
the

doe
teach
vs
two
things
,
that
is
to
say
,
Iewes
,
Turkes
,
and
other
barbarous
and
rude
nations
,
doe
kéepe
their
edictes
and
statutes
,
and
shall
the
Christians
despise
the
lawefull
ordinaunces
of
their
prince
?
The
Christians
wil
obserue
and
kéepe
diligently
the
which
is
established
in
their
fauour
,
&
shall
they
not
be
careful
to
kéepe
and
mainteine
the
edictes
and
statutes
which
do
concerne
the
common
welth
?
If
they
doe
take
it
vpon
them
,
although
it
be
litle
vpon
their
persons
or
landes
,
they
doe
complaine
by
and
by
:
alledging
the
custome
of
the
countrie
,
and
the
ordinaunce
of
the
prince
:
if
it
be
not
of
force
or
effect
,
they
haue
the
reason
.
And
in
the
meane
season
shall
they
not
haue
care
and
respect
to
mainteine
the
right
of
the
innocent
&
afflicted
,
of
the
people
of
God
?
Things
truely
,
which
doth
make
me
to
say
,
that
there
is
verie
little
loue
or
charitie
among
the
Christians
:
Some
myght
héere
replie
,
that
the
same
doth
charge
greatly
those
of
the
reformed
religion
:
Inasmuch
as
they
doe
put
themselues
by
weapons
against
the
force
&
power
of
their
enimie
.
Vnto
which
I
doe
aunswere
first
that
they
haue
done
it
by
the
authoritie
of
the
prince
.
Furthermore
,
that
there
is
great
diuersitie
to
make
a
company
of
people
,
and
to
take
weapon
without
the
lawe
and
authoritie
of
the
magistrate
,
for
to
breake
the
edictes
of
the
king
as
our
enimies
haue
done
:
and
to
put
themselues
against
the
force
and
strength
of
an
other
for
to
defend
the
edyctes
and
authoritie
of
the
king
,
as
those
of
the
reformed
religion
haue
done
.
For
in
vpholding
and
maynteyning
the
edyct
of
the
king
,
they
doe
maintayne
it
in
the
authoritie
&
puissance
which
the
Lord
hath
giuen
vnto
him
:
And
by
the
same
meanes
they
,
do
kéepe
his
subiectes
vnder
the
obedience
of
him
,
in
all
gentlenesse
and
friendship
.
On
the
contrarie
,
in
forcing
the
edicte
of
the
prince
,
they
do
dispise
the
prince
and
him
which
hath
set
him
vpon
his
throne
.
And
besides
they
do
giue
an
occasion
vnto
the
people
to
giue
themselues
to
all
liscenciousnesse
and
vngodlinesse
.
And
consequently
he
whiche
doth
violate
the
lawe
of
his
prince
doth
sinne
many
wayes
.
Finally
,
he
doth
giue
an
occasion
of
greate
slaunder
vnto
his
neighbour
,
thorowe
an
euill
example
:
inasmuche
as
he
doth
dispise
the
commaundement
of
his
Prince
.
And
truely
if
any
will
aske
me
howe
the
common
welth
of
Venice
hath
continued
so
long
in
his
authoritie
,
puissance
&
greatnes
,
&
at
this
day
is
more
richer
&
opulent
then
euer
it
was
.
I
will
aunswere
that
the
same
was
,
because
that
she
did
know
howe
to
kéepe
her
people
vnder
the
obedience
of
her
lawes
and
statutes
.
In
like
manner
experience
doth
teach
vs
what
is
the
force
and
puissance
of
the
Cantons
or
Suisse
for
the
pollicie
whiche
they
obserue
and
kéepe
in
their
common
welthes
.
It
is
to
no
purpose
then
the
men
do
vaunce
themselues
to
haue
a
Souereigne
parliament
in
their
citie
,
and
that
they
do
magnifie
themselues
vnder

of
so
many
honourable

proude
Senatours
.
And
that
in

serueth

rose

if

will
know
wherefore
the
children

were
led
captiue
to

Ieremy
doth
giue
the

reason
of
the

To

the

did
attribute

but

Beholdy

These
are
the

matters
which
that
first
Deacon
of

did
direct
vnto
them

when

saith

But

but

to
take

do

The

sentence
is
repeated
by

Peter
in

wordes
:
Woe
then
vnto
you
which
desire
the
possessions
,
and
haue
spoiled
them
:
and
the
houses
,
and
haue
taken
them
:
And
haue
done
wronge
to
a
man
and
to
his
house
,
to
a
man
and
to
his
inheritaunce
:
Which
haue
stolen
the
coate
and
cloke
from
those
which
went
by
safely
retourning
,
from
the
battayle
:
which
haue
thrust
out
women
from
their
houses
,
of
pleasure
.
And
you
also
,
marke
this
ye
prophetes
which
doe
seduce
the
people
,
which
doe
byte
with
the
téeth
and
crie
:
peace
,
and
if
any
doe
gyue
you
nothing
in
the
mouth
,
yee
prepare
against
him
battaile
.
And
vpon
thée
also
,
thou
bloudy
Citie
,
altogether
full
of
lyes
and
of
stealth
,
and
defiled
with
the
bloude
of

&
which
hast
not

in

:
and
art
not
aproched
or
come

.
I
doe
speake

which
haue
the
knowledge
,
Furthermore
,
I
would
willingly
aske
,
wherein
the
people
can
excuse
themselues
of
such
wickednesse
,
to
put
a
man
to
death
,
of
whom
he
knoweth
nothing
,
and
to
condemne
him
as
a

heretick

is

be

hath

hée
hath

I

speake
this
for

according

priuate

do
beare
such
honour
as

in

consider
not

the

is
gelous

of
the

that
they
owe
vnto
him
,
What
shall
I
say
of
those

who
making

,
do
beare
vnto

the
loue
that
they
owe

And

they

For

Howe

¶
An
exhortation
to
loue
towardes
ones
neighbour
.
Paul
●peaking
of
the
excellencie
of
loue
,
sayth
,
Though
I
speake
with
the
tongues
of
men
and
Angels
,
and
haue
not
loue
,
I
am
euen
as
lounding
braue
or
as
a
tinckling
cymball
.
And
though
I
coulde
prophecie
and
vnderstand
all
secretes
,
and
all
knowledge
:
yea
,
if
I
had
all
faith
,
so
that
I
coulde
moue
mountaines
out
of
their
places
,
and
yet
had
not
loue
,
I
were
nothing
.
And
though
I
bestowe
all
my
goodes
to
to
feede
the
poore
,
and
though
I
giue
my
bodie
that
I
be
burned
,
and
yet
haue
not
loue
,
it
profiteth
me
nothing
.
Loue
lustereth
long
:
is
courteous
:
loue
enuieth
not
:
loue
doth
not
boast
it selfe
,
swelleth
not
,
disdaineth
nothing
as
vnbeseeming
,
seeketh
not
hir
owne
things
,
is
not
prouoked
to
anger
,
thincketh
not
euill
,
reioyceth
not
in
iniquitie
,
but
reioyceth
in
the
trueth
,
suffereth
all
thinges
,
beléeueth
al
things
,
hopeth
al
thinges
,
endureth
all
thinges
.
Loue
doth
neuer
fall
away
,
though
that
all
prophecyings
shall
be
abolished
.
And
in
the
end
of
the
said
chapter
he
concludeth
:
now
abideth
faith
,
hope
&
loue
,
euen
these
three
:
but
the
chiefest
of
these
is
loue
.
These
are
the
wordes
of
Sainct
Paul
when
he
tolde
the
Corinthians
,
This
declareth
vnto
vs
what
was
gods
prouidence
,
in
the
dispensation
&
bestowing
of
his
giftes
,
who
woulde
not
that
they
shoulde
abounde
altogether
in
one
man
alone
,
to
the
end
that
by
them
helping
one
an
other
,
euery
one
may
acknowledge
his
imperfection
,
and
should
the
better
kéepe
that
bande
of
amitie
and
Chrian
charitie
.
Finally
,
let
vs
confesse
boldly
that
such
and
so
muche
excellencie
as
is
in
vs
,
it
is
alway
ioyned
with
some
imperfection
:
to
the
ende
that
the
wise
man
reioyce
not
in
his
wisedome
,
Iulius
Caeser
:
what
can
we
better
doe
,
but
to
followe
the
example
of
the
fower
and
twentie
elders
which
fell
downe
before
him
,
Elizeus
●btained

whē●he

raised

Insomuch
that

acquite

Beholde
the

it

and

contrarie

Whervnto
we
will
aunswere
briefly
,
that
the
Lord
hath
giuen
the
libertie
vnto
his
people
for
a
certaine
time
,
to
the
ende
to
tourne
them
from
the
abhominations
and
idolatries
of
the
Gentiles
,
as
it
is
written
in

booke
of

But
at
this
day
,
to
witte
in
the
lawe
of
grace
,
which
hath
bene
published
throughout
the
vniuersall

,
such
thinges
shall
not
bée
lawefull

Neuerthelesse
for
all
that
wée
haue
sayde
,
when
wée
can
not
by
any
meanes
succour
and
helpe
all
those
that
be
poore
and
néedie
:
it
is
most
expedient
to
aide
principally
our
poore
neighbours
at
home
,
and
those
that
be
of
pure
religion
.
Lactantius
Firmianus
rebuked
sharply
Plautus
,
Lactantius
Firmianus
,
to
say
,
that
if
Cicero
had
liued
in
his
time
,
he
woulde
then
haue
cried
with
a
loude
voice
,
O
Cicero
,
thou
hast
failed
from
the
true
iustice
,
and
of
one
onely
word
thou
hast
abolished
it
:
when
thou
hast
waied
and
mesured
the
right
of
pietie
and
humanitie
by
the
onely
profite
:
For
we
must
not
giue
vnto
those
that
are
able
:
but
to
the
contrarie
,
we
must
giue
to
them
that
are
lesse
able
.
The
which
as
it
séemed
the
Philosopher
Plato
Héerein
wée
sufficiently
declare
what
we
be
:
I
meane
but
of
small
charitie
,
when
the
thinges
the
which
ought
to
moue
vs
to
pitie
and
compassion
,
doe
incitate
and
pricke
vs
forwarde
to
a
more
greater
crueltie
and
in
humanitie
.
The
which
I
will
more
at
large
declare
by
a
familier
example
.
One
can
not
denie
that
the
right
of
burying

the
christians

that
it
is

and
also
to
