thorough

2.
Cor.

exorteth
the
Corinthes
to
beware
of
deceauers
,
sayeng
:
I
feare
that
it
come
to
passe
,
that
as
the
serpente
deceaued
Eua
thorough
his
subtiltie
,
euen
so
your
wittes
shoulde
be
corrupted
from
the
singlenesse
that
you
had
towarde
Christ
.
For
false
Apostles
(
sayeth
he
)
are
deceatfull
workers
,
and
fashion
them
selues
lyke
vnto
the
Apostles
of
Christ
.
And
no
merueil
for
Sathan
him selfe
is
chaunged
into
the
fashion
of
an
Angel
of
light
?
Therfore
it
is
no
great
thing
,
though
his
ministres
fashion
them selues
lyke
as
they
were
the
ministers
of
rightuousnes
.
Whose
ende
shal
be
accordinge
to
their
workes
.
Euen
so
(
right
honorable
lordes
)
I
can
not
but
feare
lest
your
vnderstandinges
and
iudgementes
,
be
now
corrupted
drawen
and
caryed
awaye
from
the
simplicitie
and
purenes
of
sincere
vnderstandinge
and
godly
iudgemente
which
late
you
had
of
Christe
,
thorow
the
crafty
persuasions
,
deceatefull
and
false
illusions
of
Antichrist
,
that
hath
transfigured
hym selfe
in
to
the
fashion
of
an
Angell
of
lighte
.
For
I
am
not
ignorante
that
now
the
monstrouse
beaste
Antichriste
,
Sathans
vicar
general
in
earth
and
all
his
adulterous
generation
of
vipers
,
that
be
his
false
Apostles
,
most
subtile
and
crafty
deceauours
,
and
the
most
malitious
enemies
of
God
and
Christe
,
cease
not
daye
nor
night
with
false
lyes
,
colored
with
cloked
hypocrisie
,
and
deceatfull
and
flatteringe
persuasions
,
to
deceaue
the
Quenes
magestie
and
all
you
,
my
lordes
,
of
hyr
most
honorable
counsaill
,
wherby
they
might
draw
hyr
highnes
&
all
you
,
from
the
godly
and
most
pure
knowleage
,
which
you
had
in
litle
tyme
past
,
receaued
of
Christe
,
in
to
their
fylthy
Puddels
and
vayne
inuentions
,
that
they
of
their
owne
braynes
(
without
any
authoritie
of
holy
scriptures
,
haue
inuented
,
to
reuiue
and
to
stablish
the
vsurped
power
and
bloody
kyngedome
of
Antichrist
in
this
realme
.
By
whose
false
doctrines
,
all
the
people
of
this
realme
shall
be
drawen
from
God
,
and
from
our
sauiour
Christe
to
trust
in
most
vayne
and
deceatefull
vanitie
.
But
if
,
your
lordships
wolde
both
waye
and
ponder
,
that
not
only
God
by
his
holy
prophetes
,
and
Apostles
,
but
also
Christ
hymself
admonisheth
and
warneth
you
and
all

,
to

of
false

and
of
craftye

subtile
deceauers
:
your

wold
be
moch
more
circumspecte

well
ware

because
that
not
only
the
Prophetes
and
Apostles
,
but
also
Christ
him self
,
(
to
whom
you
ought
to
gyue
credence
)
hath
warned
you
to
beware
of
soch
deceauers
.
And
namely
because
this
deceate
ys
not
a
manifeste
and
playne
deceate
easely
to
be
perceaued
,
and
knowen
of
al
men
,
but
so
craftly
coloured
and
subtylie
painted
with
dessebled
persuasions
,
and
of
soch
as
shall
come
euen
in
the
name
of

,
and
of
his
holy

.
And
therfore
they
shal
deceaue
many
,
sayeth
Christe

Sainte
Paul
also
sayeth
:
1.

In

some

And
the

sayeth
that

must
neades
be
,
that
the
proued

maye
be
knowen
.
Sainte

also
sayeth
:
that
there

wicked

,
2.

as
there

Antichriste

Consideringe
that

It
behoueth
your
Lordships
,
and
it
is
the
parte
and
most
bounden
dutie
of
euery
Christen
man
,
diligently
to
search
out
these
false
Prophetes
,
lyenge
masters
,
and
to
laboure
studiously
,
to
knowe
which
be
the
doctrines
of
deuils
,
and
spirites
of
errour
,
accordinge
to
the
admonition
and
warninge
of
the
Prophetes
,
of
Christe
/
and
of
the
Apostles
geuen
to
them
,
that
they
maye
circumspectly
eschew
and
auoyde
them
that
they
be
not
deceaued
by
them
and
their
doctrines
.
And
because
in
the
reigne
of
Edwarde
the
sixte
of
famose
memory
,
by
the
consent
of
his
honorable
counsel
,
ther
was
a
doctrine
preached
and
religion
receaued
in
this
realme
of
Englande
,
which
now
is
reiected
and
banisshed
as
a
doctrine
of
the
deuyll
,
and
as
heresye
,
and
false
religion
:
And
a nother
doctrine
and
religion
receaued
,
to
the
former
religion
and
doctrine
,
directe
and
manifest
contrary
:
some
men
therfore
wil
doubte
,
whether
the
first
doctrine
and
religion
be
godly
,
or
the
later
doctrine
and
religion
receaued
be
the
truer
and
better
to
be
folowed
.
I
will
commende
vnto
youre
godly
remembraunces
(
right
honorable
lordes
)
not
such
doctrines
as
any
new
writers
call
,
of
their
awne
heedes
,
false
doctrines
,
and
doctrines
of
deuyls
,
or
the
doctrines
of
lyenge
masters
.
But
the
same
doctrines
that
Christ
and
his
Apostles
expresly
call
false
doctrines
,
and
the
doctrines
of
Deuyls
.
So
that
your
lordships
nor
any
other
shall
haue
any
iust
cause
to
be
ignorante
what
be
the
doctrines
of
deuyls
,
and
who
be
wycked
preachers
,
and
lyenge
masters
,
the
wicked
secte
of
Antichrist
,
&
who
also
is
the
heed
Antichrist
.
The
people
serue
Antichrist
and
yet
do
not
knowe
hym
.
Although
doubtles
righte
honorable
lordes
)
I
well
perceaue
the
multitude
of
the
worldly
people
so
plaged
of
God
with
blindnes
and
hardnes
of
hearte
,
that
all
though
they
with
all
dyligence
studie
and
obedience
,
dayly
do
serue
Antichriste
,
the
greatest
aduersary
of
God
and
of
Christe
:
yet
do
they
not
knowe
nor
vnderstande
hym
to
be
Antichriste
christ
,
nor
do
perceaue
his
crafty
illusions
,
his
hypocrisie
,
and
disguysed
fashons
.
So
that
except
a
man
consider
&
beholde
hym
assuredlye
by
the
light
of
Gods
worde
,
he
shal
neuer
vnderstande
,
espie
,
nor
perceaue
hym
,
although
he
had
a
subtyle
and
pregnant
witte
,
as
clere
and
wel
seyng
eyes
,
and
as
craftye
a
brayne
as
euer
had
man
.
He
commeth
in
so
disguysed
vnder
the
colour
of
holynes
:
Yea
and
that
in
the
name
of
Christ
,
&
vnder
the
pretence
to
condemne
al
false
and
erronious
doctrines
and
heresies
.
Which
thing
all
Christen
princes
,
and
all
other
good
men
,
wil
be
most
diligent
and
glad
to
do
.
But
herin
he
most
subtilie
and
shamefully
begileth
al
men
.
For
he
and
his
adulterouse
generation
will
chalenge
to
him
and
to
them
autoritie
&
power
only
geuen
to
determe
,
discerne
,
and
to
iudge
what
is
heresie
,
errour
,
Antichrist
in
the
name
of
heresie
,
condemneth
the
trueth
&
what
is
false
doctrine
.
And
by
that
meanes
,
be
the
doctrine
neuer
so
true
and
godly
(
yf
it
sounde
any
thinge
against
his
vsurped
power
,
his
pryde
,
his
profite
,
his
vngodlye
decrees
and
lawes
made
in
generall
Counseils
,
and
other
his
false
and
wicked
determinations
,
and
iudgementes
)
he
will
condemne
it
for
heresie
.
And
he
that
preacheth
it
,
hym
will
he
accurse
,
callyng
him
the
enemie
of
God
,
and
of
al
the
holy
church
,
a
seditious
person
,
not
worthye
to
dwell
in
any
comen
wealth
.
But
yf
Emperours
,
Kynges
&
other
ciuill
gouernours
&
rulers
,
wolde
examin
his
doctrines
,
and
trye
them
by
the
light
of
Gods
heauenly
worde
,
and
proue
all
his
other
procedinges
,
how
they
agree
with
the
same
.
They
should
then
sone
perceaue
,
vnderstande
,
&
knowe
,
that
he
himselfe
(
although
he
calleth
him selfe
the
head
of
the
church
and
Christes
vicar
vpon
earth
,
the
successour
of
the
Apostles
)
yet
should
they
fynde
and
proue
hym
,
to
be
the
head
Antichrist
,
the
Arch-heretique
,
the
man
of
Synne
,
and
childe
of
perdition
:
And
al
his
sectes
,
to
be
the
sectes
of
perdition
,
that
departe
from
the
fayth
,
that
also
attende
to
the
spirites
of
errour
,
denyeng
the
Lorde
that
bought
them
.
But
for
as
moch
(
right
honorable
lordes
)
as
no
man
can
wel
put
any
diuersitie
betwixt
two
extreme
contraries
,
except
he
perfitly
vnderstande
and
knowe
bothe
the
contraries
,
I
will
first
describe
and
set
forth
vnto
your
good
lordships
,
Christ
(
who
is
contrarye
to
that
wicked
Antichrist
)
according
as
the
holy
scriptures
,
Ioh.
5.
which
(
as
Christ
sayeth
)
beare
true
witnesse
of
hym
.
And
then
I
will
also
paynt
in
his
lyuely
colours
,
that
Arch
heretike
Antichriste
,
that
extreame
contrarye
to
Christe
.
But
no
nother
wyse
,
then
Christ
and
his
Apostles
in
the
holy
scriptures
haue
reueled
and
euidently
expressed
and
declared
hym
.
So
that
the
one
contrarye
compared
and
set
nere
to
the
other
contrarie
,
shall
expresse
,
declare
and
set
forth
the

more
euidently

Fyrst

(

And

.
that
by
nature
is
as
all
other
be
,
a
miserable
synner
,
or
that
he
shuld
be
a
certen
wicked
persone
,
that
shuld
be
begotten
betwixt
a
Freere
and
a
Nonne
,
or
betwixt
a
Monk
and
a
Nonne
,
according
to
olde
wiues
fables
and
winter
tales
.
But
this
name
Antichriste
,
is
the
name
of
a
misterie
and
office
perteininge
to
a
misticall
bodie
,
wherof
the
principall
minister
is
called
the
chief
Antichriste
,
as
all
the
other
membres
of
the
same
faction
,
misterie
and
office
,
be
also
Antichristes
.
All
which
receaue
power
,
autoritie
,
and
office
,
from
their
heed
Antichriste
,
that
in
al
his
doctrines
,
maners
,
and
lyuinge
,
is
mere
contrary
to
Christ
.
For
euen
as
that
congregation
is
the
misticall
body
of
Christe
,
wherof
he
is
the
supreme
heed
,
that
hath
receaued
the
true
and
sincere
preachinge
of
the
law
and
of
the
gospel
,
and
lyue
accordinge
to
the
preachinge
of
the
same
,
and
also
haue
the
sacramentes
duely
administred
vnto
them
,
accordinge
to
Christes
institution
of
the
same
:
The
description
of
Antichriste
.
Euen
so
is
that
malignaunt
church
and
congregation
the
misticall
bodie
of
Antichriste
,
that
hath
not
amongest
them
the
true
and
sincere
preaching
of
the
Law
and
of
the
Gospel
,
ne
yet
the
sacramentes
dulie
administred
vnto
them
,
accordinge
to
Christes
institution
of
them
,
ne
yet
accordinge
to
the
practise
of
the
Apostles
,
nor
of
the
primatiue
church
,
nor
the
same
can
be
content
to
lyue
according
to
the
rule
and
doctrine
of
Gods
heauenly
worde
:
nor
suffer
any
other
to
lyue
accordinge
to
the
same
:
but
will
compell
them
with
tormentes
to
receaue
a
new
religion
,
that
must
consiste
other
in
vayne
thinges
which
be
of
no
commoditie
or
profit
to
any
man
ether
spirituall
or
temporal
:
or
els
it
is
manifest
wicked
and
repugnaunt
to
Gods
holy
worde
.
And
first
touchinge
their
vaine
thinges
,
and
deed
ceremonies
of
their
religion
,
that
be
of
no
commoditie
or
profite
to
any
man
excepte
onlye
to
the
sluttishe
secte
of
perdition
.
I
note
all
their
popishe
traditions
of
confirmacion
of
yonge
children
with
oyntinge
of
oyle
and
creame
,
and
with
a
ragge
knitte
aboute
the
necke
of
the
yonge
babe
,
the
christeninge
of
belles
,
the
halowinge
of
oyle
and
creame
,
the
halowinge
of
churches
of
churchyardes
,
of
chalices
,
of
vestimentes
,
of
aultares
,
of
aultare
clothes
,
of
salte
,
of
bread
,
of
fiere
,
of
asshes
,
of
water
,
of
candles
,
of
palme
stickes
,
Iudas
bels
with
candels
blowen
out
at
the
ende
of
euery
Psalme
and
lesson
,
crepinge
to
the
crosse
with
egges
and
apples
,
dispelinge
with
a
white
rodde
,
wasshinge
of
aultares
.
Of
all
which
thinges
the
holy
scriptures
commaunde
not
one
to
be
done
,
although
in
this
churche
of
Antichrist
they
be
straytly
commaunded
to
be
vsed
.
And
yet
I
know
no
wise
man
that
wil
or
can
prayse
the
comoditie
or
profite
that
cometh
therof
to
any
man
,
but
only
to
the
priest
that
hath
the
candles
egges
.
&c.
that
be
offred
vnto
hym
.
And
although
ther
riseth
not
any
commoditie
or
profite
other
spiritual
or
temporal
to
any
man
:
yet
as
I
haue
said
,
they
be
straytly
commaunded
to
be
obserued
/
contrary
to
Gods
cōmaun̄demēt
that
sayeth
:
Deut.
12
That
which
I
commaunde
you
,
that
only
take
hede
do
to
the
Lorde
,
Putth
on
nought
therto
.
Not
withstandinge
which
commaundemente
/
because
Antichriste
wold
partly
set
forth
his
awne
nature
and
propertie
,
that
is
,
to
be
contrary
and
disobedient
to
God
and
Christ
,
he
hath
erected
these
new
holy
thinges
,
neuer
of
God
commaunded
.
And
therfore
as
they
be
not
of
God
,
so
be
they
of
no
commoditie
or
profite
to
any
of
the
people
of
God
.
why
Antichrist
commaundeth
vanities
.
But
yet
ther
is
some
consideration
wherfore
Antichriste
hath
commaunded
these
vayne
thinges
to
be
done
.
One
is
,
that
he
wold
haue
his
filthy
generation
to
be
had
in
estimation
of
the
worldly
babes
,
because
that
they
haue
receaued
soch
holines
from
his
holy
fatherhood
,
that
they
maye
sanctifie
and
make
holy
,
that
God
hath
halowed
allready
,
lyke
as
the
thinges
of
Gods
creation
were
not
sufficientlye
halowed
thorowe
his
eternall
worde
wherby
he
created
them
.
Exalteth
not
he
himself
aboue
God
,
honorable
lordes
,
that
taketh
vpon
hym
to
adde
holynes
to
that
which
God
hath
sufficiently
halowed
?
Be
not
these
his
halowinges
of
Gods
creatures
a
necessary
point
perteininge
to
the
vocation
of
a
spirituall
pastoure
/
that
hath
cure
and
charge
of
soules
?
Or
be
they
not
necessary
thinges
to
be
done
of
a
Christen
man
/
towchinge
his
vocation
and
dutie
to
be
done
towardes
God
and
towardes
his
neighbour
And
although
they
be
worthy
rather
to
be
laghed
at
and
mocked
/
yet
by
these
his
vanities
he
occupieth
the
tyme
hat
shuld
be
spente
in
the
instruction
&
teachinge
the
people
in
the
lawe
and
the
Gospell
.
Moreouer
by
these
,
as
also
by
many
other
their
doinges
/
they
declare
their
diligente
cure
and
studye
that
they
haue
to
obeye
Gods
commaundement
geuen
to
them
to
instructe
and
to
teach
the
people
Gods
worde
,
that
leaue
the
gospell
vnpreached
and
occupie
the
heartes
and
mindes
of
the
people
with
soch
trifles
and
vanities
.
But
because
these
vayne
thinges
do
not
sufficiently
reuele
this
wicked
Antichriste
and
his
secte
.
That
he
may
be
knowen
of
all
men
,
I
will
commende
to
youre
memories
(
honorable
lordes
)
some
of
his
false
doctrines
:
Not
soch
as
I
of
myne
awne
brayne
,
call
false
doctrines
and
the
doctrines
of
deuels
,
and
of
soch
as
departe
from
the
fayth
,
and
be
lyeng
masters
,
and
geue
eare
to
the
spirites
of
erroure
:
But
soch
doctrines
as
Christe
and
his
Apostles
note
to
be
the
doctrines
of
deuels
,
and
of
soch
as
by
the
same
doctrines
shal
deceaue
〈◊〉
,
and
shall
cause
many
to
folow
the
sp●…tes
of
erroure
.
So
that
euery
man
that
heareth
soch
doctrines
preached
,
maye
boldlye
saye
,
that
the
preachers
therof
be
false
preachers
and
sectes
of
perdition
,
that
they
be
the
adulterouse
generation
of
Antichrist
,
that
these
many
yeres
haue
deceaued
and
bewitched
the
world
.
And
although
Christ
and
his
Apostles
haue
manifestlie
declared
,
and
euidently
set
forth
to
the
world
the
sayd
doctrines
to
be
the
doctrines
of
deuels
and
of
them
that
departe
from
the
faith
,
and
the
very
selfe
same
doctrines
wherby
Antichriste
and
his
filthy
secte
shulde
deceaue
many
Yet
soch
hath
ben
the
blindnes
of
the
worlde
,
that
they
can
not
vnderstande
nor
perceaue
those
doctrines
,
to
be
the
same
wicked
doctrines
,
wherof
,
Christ
and
his
Apostles
admonished
them
&
al
men
to
beware
:
not
only
because
he
coloureth
his
doctrines
with
false
paynted
gloses
,
Ioan.
3.
but
also
because
the
world
loueth
darkenes
moare
them
the
lighte
,
And
also
to
verifie
Christes
wordes
of
prophesie
to
be
truely
fulfilled
in
them
saying
:
I
am
come
in
my
fathers
name
and
you
receaue
me
not
.
Iaon
.
5.
But
yf
a nother
shal
come
in
his
awne
name
,
him
wil
you
receaue
.
Now
touchinge
the
false
doctrines
of
Antichriste
Sainte
Paul
sayeth
:
1.
Tim.
4
The
spirite
manifestly
sheweth
that
in
the
last
tymes
,
certen
men
shal
departe
or
go
awaye
from
the
faith
,
attending
or
geuing
eare
to
the
spirites
of
erroure
and
doctrines
of
deuels
,
prohibitinge
to
mary
,
and
commaunding
to
absteyne
from
meates
,
that
God
hath
created
to
be
receaued
of
them
that
beleue
and
know
the
trueth
,
with
thankes
geuinge
.
By
this
doctrine
of
sainte
Paul
manifestlye
appereth
(
honorable
Lordes
)
that
the
forbiddinge
of
mariage
is
the
doctrine
of
deuels
.
For
God
in
paradise
first
ordeyned
mariage
,
sayenge
:
It
is
not
good
for
man
to
be
by
hymselfe
alone
.
Let
vs
make
to
him
a
helper
to
beare
hym
company
,
&
so
forth
as
it
appereth
in
the
texte
.
Gen.
2.
Consideringe
that
God
sayde
:
It
is
not
good
for
man
to
be
alone
,
doutles
it
is
not
good
generally
,
for
man
to
be
alone
without
his
helpe
.
Esa.
45
And
the
Prophete
Esay
curseth
all
them
that
speake
againste
their
maker
.
Noman
therfore
durst
be
so
bold
to
forbidde
mariage
to
any
people
excepte
only
Antichrist
and
his
fluttish
and
shameles
secte
,
which
euer
be
againste
God
and
Christ
.
Also
because
it
was
not
good
for
man
to
be
alone
without
his
wife
in
the
state
of
innocencie
:
It
is
not
now
good
but
moch
worse
to
be
without
a
wife
,
when
man
is
fallen
by
synne
,
beyng
the
fleshe
more
frayle
&
prone
to
synne
.
And
therfore
that
man
that
hath
not
the
especiall
gifte
of
chastitie
and
will
lyue
alone
,
&
not
take
a
wyfe
.
The
same
not
onlye
contemneth
Goddes
mercyfull
ordinaunce
made
for
man
in
the
state
of
innocencie
,
but
also
despiseth
Gods
louinge
benefite
and
remedy
prouyded
for
the
infirmitie
of
man
,
wherby
he
might
auoyde
fornication
,
&
other
wicked
lustes
forbidden
by
God
:
accordinge
to
Sainte
Pauls
doctrine
sayenge
:
1.
Cor.
7.
To
auoyde
fornication
,
let
euery
man
(
exceptinge
not
priestes
)
haue
his
wife
,
and
euery
woman
(
exceptinge
not
vowasses
)
haue
hir
husbande
.
And
because
mariage
is
Gods
ordinaunce
and
mercifull
remedye
prouided
for
all
men
,
●hat
haue
not
the
gift
of
chastitie
:
It
is
therfore
good
for
euery
man
,
that
haue
not
receaued
the
gifte
of
chastitie
to
haue
a
wife
,
namely
because
it
is
Gods
mercyfull
prouision
and
ordinaunce
prouided
for
the
helpe
of
man
,
and
commaunded
in
the
holy
scriptures
by
Gods
holy
spirite
,
where
no
euil
thinge
can
be
commaunded
.
And
also
the
same
state
of
matrimonie
in
Christes
religion
is
praysed
of
the
Apostle
,
sayeng
:
Maryage
is
honorable
,
Heb.
13.
&
the
bed
not
defiled
.
Christ
also
approuinge
the
same
estate
in
that
he
was
borne
of
a
virgin
in
mariage
,
Luc.
1.
and
not
of
a
virgin
out
of
mariage
.
Ioan.
2.
And
also
Christe
hym selfe
in
his
godly
presence
honored
matrimonie
with
a
great
miracle
done
in
Cana
,
where
he
turned
water
in
to
wyne
.
Abraham
the
father
of
all
beleuers
,
and
other
the
patriarkes
and
Prophetes
had
lawful
wiues
that
were
not
disproued
of
God
,
nor
was
no
impedimente
vnto
them
,
but
that
they
had
the
spirite
of
prophesie
&
the
faruoure
of
God
.
Wherfore
then
shuld
oure
vnlerned
priestes
refuse
to
marye
wiues
specially
because
all
men
perceaue
by
their
lyuinge
,
that
they
haue
not
the
gifte
of
chastitie
?
But
for
so
much
as
Paul
sayeth
,
honorable
lordes
,
Tit.
3
that
all
thinge
(
namely
of
Gods
creation
and
ordinaunce
)
is
pure
and
good
to
them
whose
consciences
be
pure
and
good
.
All
men
that
knowe
any
thinge
in
the
holy
scriptures
knowe
and
certenly
beleue
,
that
yf
oure
Antichristian
priestes
were
pure
&
cleane
towardes
God
,
his
ordinaunce
of
matrimonie
wold
not
be
forsaken
of
them
.
But
for
as
moch
as
by
the
residew
of
their
conditions
and
qualities
,
many
thinke
them
to
be
soch
as
Peter
writeth
of
,
2.
Pet.
2.
that
haue
eyes
full
of
adulterie
and
of
the
insatiable
luste
and
offence
,
&
so
defiled
with
filthy
lustes
.
To
our
English
priestes
,
godly
matrimonie
is
nother
pure
nor
cleane
,
and
therfore
are
they
vnworthy
of
chast
matrimonie
,
because
their
consciences
be
nether
pure
nor
cleane
.
And
then
be
they
so
cast
of
from
God
that
they
can
not
iudge
chast
matrimonie
good
for
them
,
although
they
can
not
denye
,
matrimonie
to
be
Gods
ordinaunce
,
which
can
not
be
euill
to
a
good
man
.
And
also
they
know
that
as
good
men
,
as
any
that
the
holy
scriptures
prayse
,
were
maried
,
&
had
both
wiues
and
childerne
.
An
obiection
.
But
to
this
they
saye
,
that
matrimonie
is
godly
so
that
it
be
by
soch
as
maye
laufully
mary
.
But
because
they
haue
made
vowes
to
lyue
sole
and
vnmaried
,
they
saye
,
they
maye
not
take
any
wiues
of
their
owne
.
But
I
desyre
them
to
shewe
me
whether
God
requireth
of
them
any
soch
vowes
to
be
made
by
them
?
Esa.
1.
And
also
I
require
of
them
to
shew
me
without
any
dissimulation
,
Answer
.
whether
they
wold
haue
made
any
such
vowe
,
yf
it
were
not
for
to
be
apte
to
haue
a
benefice
?
And
because
the
Pope
,
which
maketh
lawes
to
fil
hell
/
by
his
most
wicked
decrees
hath
ordened
that
euery
Priest
that
shuld
be
apte
to
receaue
ecclesiasticall
promotion
shuld
be
with
in
soch
orders
,
Note
.
that
it
shuld
not
be
lawfull
for
hym
to
marie
a
wife
,
therfore
make
the
priestes
their
vowes
.
But
for
a
conlusion
(
righte
honorable
lordes
)
ther
is
no
prohibition
nor
for
biddinge
of
mariage
made
to
any
persones
but
only
to
priestes
and
vowesses
.
Doutelesse
therfore
that
prohibition
of
mariage
made
to
them
,
ys
the
selfe
same
doctrine
of
deuels
that
Paul
speaketh
of
.
And
their
vowes
be
wicked
,
because
the
vowes
that
they
make
be
proude
vowes
,
that
they
can
not
render
to
God
,
and
soch
as
they
oughte
rather
to
aske
of
God
,
yf
he
wold
geue
them
.
And
therfore
folish
vowes
be
they
,
that
displease
God
,
Eccl.
5.
as
the
holy
goste
sayeth
.
And
if
,
your
Lordships
,
wold
wel
consider
,
waye
,
and
ponder
how
moch
adulterie
,
fornication
,
deflowringe
of
virgins
,
murder
of
infantes
,
and
of
maryed
men
,
whoredome
and
the
fylthie
synne
of
buggery
haue
be
committed
thorow
these
folish
&
vngodly
vowes
of
sole
lyuinge
,
&
prohibition
of
matrimonie
made
to
priestes
&
vowesses
,
I
thinke
,
that
nether
your
lordships
,
nor
any
christen
man
can
otherwise
,
other
iudge
or
saye
,
but
that
this
forbiddinge
of
mariage
,
is
the
self
same
doctrine
of
deuels
wherof
Paul
speaketh
As
the
same
doctrine
wherby
the
Deuel
hath
greatlye
,
and
will
maynteyne
and
fill
his
kingedome
.
Beware
therfore
,
my
good
Lordes
,
of
one
of
Antichristes
wicked
doctrines
.
And
note
well
whether
ye
haue
any
in
youre
Englishe
clergye
that
teache
that
doctrine
,
and
stobernly
defende
the
same
And
knowe
ye
them
to
be
Antichristes
disciples
.
And
although
all
the
heauens
crye
out
vpon
them
,
and
al
the
earth
wondereth
at
their
abhominable
whoredome
,
adulterye
and
fornication
,
yet
be
oure
priestes
permitted
and
suffred
:
nay
rather
compelled
,
to
make
soch
wicked
and
folishe
vowes
,
therwith
to
mocke
the
people
,
that
they
shuld
not
mistrust
them
with
their
wiues
,
doughters
,
nor
women
seruantes
,
because
,
they
saye
,
they
will
haue
no
nother
wyfe
but
our

But
Englande
can
not
be
ignoraunt
of
the
multitude
of
their
whores
and
bastardes

How
this
agreeth
with
Pauls
doctrine
,
that
commaundeth
vs
not
to
eate
with
soche
,
iudge
you
,
my
Lordes
,
that
shuld
se
it
reformed
.
And
for
your
owne
honoures
prouyde
that
adulterie
maye
be
punished
with
the
same
punishement
that
God
ordened
adulterye
to
be
punished
.
Do
you
doute
whether
God
did
erre
in
iudgement
?
Yf
you
do
not
thinke
iniquitie
in
God
,
Wherfore
do
ye
not
folow
hym
in
iudgement
,
that
can
not
erre
nor
commaunde
any
vnrightuousnes
.
Sainte
Paul
(
right
honorable
lordes
)
setteth
forth
a nother
doctrine
of
deuels
,
the
abstinence
from
meates
in
certen
tymes
and
dayes
,
and
for
conscience
sake
:
supposinge
the
meate
to
be
prophane
,
and
vngodly
,
and
againste
Gods
wil
and
pleasure
to
be
eaten
.
Soch
abstinence
from
meates
Paul
calleth
the
doctrine
of
deuels
,
because
it
is
mere
contrary
to
Christes
wordes
,
and
the
holy
scriptures
.
For
meate
,
sayeth
Paul
,
commendeth
vs
not
to
God
,
1.

nether
yf
we
eate
be
we
the
better
,
nether
yf
we

we
the
worse
.

For
that
which
entreth
in
to
the
mouth
defileth
not
the
man
:
but
that
which
procedeth
out
of
the
hearte
,
sayeth
Christe
.
Also
Sainte
Paul
exhorteth
all
men
that
they
regarde
not
soch
ordinaunces
made
by
men
,
lyke
as
the
ordinaunces
made
by
God
,
sayenge
:

Let
no
man
trouble
youre
conscience
aboute
meate
and
drinke
.
Wherfore
,
if
you
be
deed
with
Christe
(
sayeth
he
)
from
the
ordinaunces
of
the
world
,
whic
as
though
ye
yet
lyued
in
the
world
,
are
ye
leed
with

traditions
?
Touche
not
,
tast

handle

All
which
perishe
thorow
the
veraye
abuse
,
after
the
commaundement
&
doctrines
of
men
.
Which
thinges
outwardlye
haue
a
similitude
of
wysedome
by
superstition
,
&
humblenes
,
&
by
hurting
of
the
body
,
&
in
that
they
do
the
fleshe
no
worship
to
the
nede
therof
.
S.
Peter
also
thought
it
not
meete
for
hym
to
eate
certen
meates
that
were
forbidden
in
Moses
law
to
be
eaten
,
as
thinges
that
were
vncleane
.
Act.

To
whome
in
a
vision
was
answer
geuen
,
that
he
should
not
saye
that
thinge
to

comen
and
vncleane
that
God
had
purified
,
thorow
his
eternall
worde

It
is
therfore
good
,
sayeth
Paul
,
to
stablish
oure
heartes
in

in

which
profited
not
them

Doutles
,
honorable
lordes
,
Sainte
Paul
wold
not
haue
commaunded
generally
that
we
shuld
eate
of
all
kinde
of
meates
that
come
to
be
solde
in
the
shambles
,
askinge
no
thinge
what
they
be
,
for
conscience
sake
,
yf
it
had
not
ben
lawfull
by
Gods
lawes
to
eate
of
all
kindes
of
meates
,
and
that
in
all
tymes
and
dayes
so
that
they
be
eaten
temperatly
,
for
the
necessitie
of
the
bodie
,
and
not
for
wanton
lust
to
please
the
flesh
,
and
also
eaten
with
out
offence
of
the
weake
brethren
,
&
eaten
with
thankes
geuyng
for
the
same
to
God
that
feadeth
al
thinges
But
who
(
right
honorable
lordes
)
hath
forboden
these
flesh
meates
,
and
whit
meates
to
be
eaten
in
Lent
&
other
prescript
tymes
?
Euen
he
that
hath
vsurped
power
to
make
offences
&
synne
of
that
which
God
nor
his
Apostles
,
taught
to
be
synne
or
offence
.
Of
whome
S.
Paul
warneth
you
to
beware
,
&
to
marke
them
,
&
decline
from
them
.
For
soch
sayeth
Paul
,
Rom.
13.
sserue
not
our
Lorde
but
their
belies
.
And
by
pleasaunt
wordes
&
blessinges
they
seduce
&
begyle
the
heartes
of
innocentes
.
But
wherfore
hath
our
holy
father
made
restraint
of
meates
to
be
eaten
in
certayne
tymes
for
conscience
sake
,
so
manifest
contrary
to
the
doctrine
of
them
that
he
bosteth
to
be
his
predecessours
?
Verely
that
he
might
set
forth
his
vsurped
power
.
And
also
that
(
as
S.
Peter
sayeth
)
he
might
make
marchaundise
ouer
vs
in
couetousnes
.

Pet.

For
money
he
will
geue
licence
to
eate
what
you
wil
,
&
to
do
what
you
will
.
And
therfore
all
his
lawes
made
of
restrainte
,
&
forbiddyng
of
those
thinges
that
God
lefte
free
,
are
but
a
playne
arte
and
crafte
deuyse
made
to
begyle
the
people
of
their
money
.
This
,
moste
honorable
Lordes
,
I
haue
sette
forth
two
of
Antichristes
false
doctrines
not
after
myne
awne
fantesie
,
but
as
Paul
nameth
them
the
doctrine
of
deuels
,
that
you
might
not
be
any
furder
deceaued
by
the
preachers
of
them
.
And
also
that
you
maye
assuredly
,
certifie
youre
consciences
,
that
al
they
that
preache
and
defende
the
same
doctrines
,
ben
vnfaynedly
Antichristes
disciples
,
which
be
spirites
of
erroure
,
that
haue
departed
from
the
faith
:
or
els
the
Apostles
doctrine
is
erronious
and
false
:
But
that
can
not
be
true
.
Also
oure
master
Christe
,
admonisheth
vs
to
beware
lest
any
mand
deceaue
vs
.
For
many
shall
come
,
sayeth
Christe
,
in
my
name
sayenge
:
Mat.
24
I
am
Christe
,
&
shall
deceaue
many
.
Who
is
he
that
cometh
in
Christes
name
sayeng
,
I
am
Christe
?
None
doutles
,
who
be
they
that
saye
they
be
Christ
.
but
he
that
vsurpeth
to
hym
Christes
office
,
power
,
&
holynes
,
which
no
man
doeth
but
the
Romish
Antichrist
and
his
sluttish
secte
.
Euen
they
that
vsurpe
absolute
power
geuen
to
them
to
remitte
and
to
forgeue
synnes
to
the
people
,
Against
them
that
vsurpe
Christes
power
and
place
.
whiche
is
the
onlye
power
,
grace
and
office
of
Christe
,
and
not
of
any
man
.
Wherfore
that
man
that
vsurpeth
vpon
hym
that
office
of
Christe
,
is
the
very
same
that
sayeth
:
I
am
Christe
,
that
is
,
so
anoynted
and
authorised
of
God
,
that
I
haue
absolute
power
geuen
me
from
God
,
to
forgeue
synnes
,
as
Christe
hath
.
For
euen
in
soch
maner
of
speaking
all
his
filthy
secte
,
sittinge
in
their
whorish
confessions
,
boost
them selfes
that
they
sit
in
Gods
stydde
and
rowme
to
forgeue
the
synnes
of
soch
as
confesse
their
sinnes
to
them
,
sayenge
in
their
false
absolutions
in
a
tonge
that
the
confessed
vnderstandeth
not
.
By
the
authoritie
of
Peter
and
Paul
,
and
by
the
authoritie
to
me
committed
I
forgeue
the
thy
synnes
to
me
confessed
?
But
nether
Peter
,
ne
yet
Paul
,
did
forgeue
synnes
by
their
awne
authoritie
,
grace
or
power
,
but
only
by
the
preaching
of
the
gospel
.
Act.

As
Peter
sayeth
:
ther
is
no
nother
name
vnder
heauen
geuen
vnto
men
,
nether
is
ther
any
other
by
whom
we
must
be
saued
,
Act.
10
but
the
name
of
Iesu
Christe
.
For
to
hym
all
the
prophetes
beare
witnes
(
sayeth
Peter
)
remission
of
synne
to
be
had
thorowe
his
name
.
Also
,
sayeth
Paul
,
be
it
knowen
vnto
you
men
and
bretherne
,
Act.
13.
that
thorow
this
man
(
meaning
Christe
)
remission
of
synnes
is
preached
,
and
that
by
hym
all
that
beleue
are
iustified
from
all
thinges
from
the
which
ye
could
not
be
iustified
by
the
law
of
Moses
.
For
he
is
the
lambe
of
God
that
taketh
awaye
the
synnes
of
the
people
/
sayeth
Ioan
baptiste
.
Ioh.
1.
And
euen
so
sayeth
the
Angell
to
our
lady
,
Math.
1.
that
he
shall
saue
his
people
from
their
synnes
.
Wherfore
nether
by
the
authoritie
of
Peter
/
nor
of
Paul
,
ne
yet
by
any
absolute
autoritie
to
them
committed
,
excepte
by
the
autoritie
of
preachinge
of
the
gospel
to
the
people
,
that
trulie
repente
,
beleuinge
constantly
to
haue
remission
of
their
synnes
by
the
deeth
and
bloodshedinge
of
Iesu
Christ
,
hath
other
bisshop
or
priest
any
autoritie
to
forgeue
synne
.
Lamente
therfore
(
my
Lordes
)
the
miserable
state
of
this
realme
,
consideringe
that
there
can
be
no
remission
of
synnes
geuen
,
but
onlye
thorow
the
preaching
of
the
gospell
,
which
none
of
oure
priestes
thorow
all
the
realme
do
practise
in
their
whorish
confessions
,
nor
yet
know
they
what
is
a
gospel
,
moch
lesse
can
they
preach
the
gospell
.
Halas
,
by
what
meanes
do
these
beastes
of
the
bely
geue
remission
of
synnes
to
the
people
,
when
they
speake
not
one
worde
of
Christe
that
the
confessed
doeth
vnderstande
or
perceaue
.
But
in
their
absolutions
they
geue
penaunce
to
the
confessed
,
fastinge
certen
dayes
,
lyplabour
in
sayenge
of
thinges
they
vnderstande
not
,
masses
to
be
sayed
,
and
almes
to
be
geuen
for
the
satisfaction
of
their
sinnes
.
Thus
burye
they
Christes
passion
,
and
deeth
,
and
bloodshedinge
,
which
only
be
oure
satisfaction
for
oure
synnes
.
And
no
nother
can
be
.
And
although
God
,
by
his
prophete
Esai
,
commaundeth
all
pastours
that
haue
the
spirituall
charge
of
soules
,
Esai
.
43.
to
shew
vnto
his
people
their
synnes
,
sayenge
:
Crie
and
cease
not
.
Lyft
vp
thy
voyce
as
a
trumpet
,
Esai
.
58.
&
shew
my
people
their
synnes
.
Notwithstandinge
this
commaundemente
of
God
geuen
to
all
them
that
haue
spirituall
charge
of
soules
,
Antichriste
myndinge
to
shew
to
the
world
,
that
he
thinketh
him selfe
wiser
than
God
,
and
that
he
can
make
more
godly
and
holsome
prouision
for
soule
health
then
God
,
hath
made
a
law
that
all
people
of
euery
kinde
once
in
the
yere
at
the
leest
,
shal
confesse
and
shew
their
synnes
to
their
awne
Pastour
or
curate
.
God
commaundeth
that
the
pastoure
shall
shew
to
the
people
theyr
synnes
.
But
Antichriste
commaundeth
cleane
contrary
,
that
the
people
shall
shew
their
synnes
to
their
curates
.
By
these
meanes
,
the
people
for
the
most
parte
beleue
that
they
haue
remission
of
their
synnes
,
because
they
haue
nombred
their
synnes
in
to
the
eares
of
their
confessoure
.
Or
els
for
what
cause
shulde
we
confesse
them
to
our
curates
?
For
euery
man
knoweth
what
is
synne
,
&
that
he
shal
be
damned
yf
he
forsake
not
his
synne
,
yf
the
priestes
execute
the
commaundemente
of
God
geuen
by
Esai
.
Esai
58.
But
the
simple
people
thinke
verely
that
when
the
curate
pronounceth
a
certen
sownde
and
voyce
of
wordes
ouer
their
beedes
which
they
thinke
is
an
absolution
from
their
sinnes
,
although
they
vnderstande
not
one
worde
what
he
sayeth
,
yet
beleue
they
that
the
wordes
that
he
speaketh
hauinge
his
hande
vpon
their
heedes
haue
vertue
and
power
,
to
forgeue
to
them
their
synnes
:
euen
because
the
priest
sitting
in
Gods
stede
(
as
they
thinke
,
and
as
the
priestes
boaste
them selfes
to
do
)
pronounceth
and
speaketh
them
.
Wherin
all
be
deceaued
lamentablye
.
Assured
meanes
wherby
euery
man
maye
haue
remission
of
sinnes
.
But
doutles
,
he
that
earnestly
repenteth
his
sinfull
life
,
fully
mynded
neuer
after
to
returne
to
the
same
,
&
then
trusteth
constantly
to
Gods
promise
made
of
remission
of
sinnes
to
hym
,
for
the
passion
&
deeth
of
oure
sauioure
Christe
/
the
same
hath
remission
of
his
synne
althouth
he
neuer
nombre
them
in
to
the
eare
of
any
preist
.
And
then
yf
he
fealinge
and
perceauinge
true
,
repentaunce
and
faith
in
his
hearte
,
will
resorte
to
any
prieste
to
receaue
absolution
and
remission
of
his
synnes
,
wherof
he
is
assured
by
Gods
promise
,
the
same
declareth
hymself
to
mistrust
Gods
promise
made
to
hym
of
remission
of
his
synnes
,
and
then
is
he
an
infidele
,
that
by
no
meanes
can
haue
remission
of
his
synnes
.
And
if
he
be
not
fully
mynded
to
forsake
his
former
euill
lyfe
,
and
neuer
to
retorne
to
the
same
againe
,
then
can
he
not
haue
any
trust
to
haue
remission
of
his
synnes
,
because
that
is
promised
to
them
only
that
for
euer
forsake
their
synnes
.
And
therfore
,
if
he
mindeth
not
to
forsake
his
synnes
,
he
goeth
in
vayne
to
his
curate
to
haue
remission
of
his
synnes
.
And
if
he
repenteth
his
synnes
and
beleueth
,
as
I
haue
said
,
then
doeth
he
euyll
to
fatch
remission
of
his
synnes
,
wherof
he
is
assured
already
by
Gods
promise
to
be
forgeuen
.
And
therfore
his
goinge
to
his
curate
to
be
confessed
is
veraye
vayne
and
a
poynte
of
infidelitie
.
Oh
that
the
curates
of
Englande
,
wold
theye
and
obserue
Gods
commaundemente
,
geuen
to
them
by
the
mouth
of
his
prophete
Esaia
.
But
that
will
they
neuer
〈◊〉
.
But
their
master
Antichristes
commaundementes
wyll
they
deligently
obeye
,
although
they
bringe
no
commoditie
spirituall
or
temporall
to
any
man
,
sauinge
to
their
fylthie

Euery
man
maye

all

Yet
by

their

,
the
chiefe
Antichrist
kepeth
his
sluttish
secte
of
perdition
in

with
the
comen

in
whose
consciences
they
sitte
as
God
,
and
execute
Antichristes
office
,
that
is
to
fill

with

And
so
in

be
euer
ready
to
worke
sedition
and
treason
against
both
Emperoure

and
al

of

his
false

deceated
wicked

wherby
he
seduceth

begyleth
all

for
the
most

:
leading
them
with
a
false
confidence
and
fayth
,
to
haue
remission
of
their

,
because
they
declare
them
to
his

And
by

And

is
broughte
to
passe
to
the

As

And
this
is
not
their

but
also
the

was
practised
with
the
Princes
of

,
that

Wherfore
this
whorish

,
wherof

so
moch
euyll
and
mischefe
to
all
realmes
,
which
also
bringeth
no
profite

it
,
but
seduceth
and
begyleth
many
,
ought
to
be
banished
and
abolished
,
although
they
saye
,
that
they
cannot
well
gyue

,
that

,
excepte
they

Which
answere
oure
holy

desproueth

For
he
geueth
cleane
remission
,
a
prenaet
a
culpa
,
that
is
from
peyne

,
to
them
that
neuer
shewed
their

to
hym
,
and
healeth
all
sickenesses

with
this
one

that
is
,
all
that
be
truly
sory
and
penitente
for
their

,
and
be
confessed
to
a

haue
cleane
remission

As
for
faith
in
our
sauioure
Iesus
Christe
,
it
forceth
not
:
so
thou
be
confessed
,
it
maketh
no

whether
thou
beleue

Christe
or
no.
And
yet
without
Christ
are
we
all
for
euer
:
remidiles
damned
.
Why
do
ye
,
right
honorable
lordes
/
admit
this
blasphemous
doctrine
,
of
remission
of
synnes
without
faith
in
Christ
.
All
that
be
truly
sorry
for
their

,
entendinge
thorow
Gods
helpe
/
neuer
to
retorne
to
the

,
and
put
their
trust
and
faith
in
Christes
blood
for
the
remission
of
their

,
haue
a
generall
pardon
graunted
vnto
them
by
God
hym selfe
,
by
his
promise
,
though
they
neuer
come
to
priestes

,
which
is
a
sure
bull
,
nor
sealed
with
lead
,
but
with
the
bloodshedinge
of
Iesus
Christe
.
And
therfore
,
if
oure
english
priestes
wolde
truly
preach
the
law
to
the
people
openly
,
them
shuld
they
shewe
the
people
their
sinnes
,
accordinge
to
Gods
commaundemente
,
and
geue
them
the
generall
plaister
,
that
is
,
they
must
vtterly
forsake
their
sinnes
,
and
trust
to
Christes
satisfaction
made
for
the
same
,
This
maye
they
do
without
carish
confession

And
this
is
the
only
true
waye
to
forgeue
sinnes
,
and
of
it selfe

Awaye
therfore

A nother

By

take

Consideringe
that
Paul
sayeth
:
Hebr.

where
is
remission
of
sinnes
there
neadeth
no
forther
sacrifice
to
be
made
for

,
but
Christe
with
his
only
one
sacrifice
made
to
God
his
father
for
vs
hath
taken
awaye
oure
synnes
,
as
all
the
holy
scriptures
beare
manifeste
witnesse
.
And
in
the
articles
of
oure
crede
we
confesse
the
same
.
Wherfore
this
sacrifice
made
in
the
ydolotrouse
masse
,
is
most
wicked
and
sinfull
,
&
can
not
by
any
meanes
take
awaye

but
is
one
of
Antichristes
false
craftes

subtile
deuises
therby
to
maynteyn
his
sluttish
generation
of
infideles
,
to
lyue
ydly
,
proudly
and
lecherously
.
And
by
this
their
false
sacrifice
made
in
their
ydolotrouse
masse
,
they
robbe
Christ
not
only
of
his
honour
of
oure
redemption
,
and
of
the
thankes
dew
for
the
same
:
But
also
they
make
many
to
haue
a
false
confidence
and
trust
,
to
haue
their
synnes
to
be
taken
awaye
thorow
their
false
sacrifice
made
in
their
masses
.
Wherin
they
be
lamentably
deceaued
.
And
also
they
robbe
vs
of
oure
money
,
&
be
the
selfe

As
it
appeareth

,
Paul
sayeth
:

we
can
not

oughte

Therfore

if

were
spirituall
,
as
in

they
be

veraye
liplaboure

But

Yet

the

of

to

mediatours

aduocates

And
therby

saye
that

For

Beware
therfore
of
a nother
of

false
doctrines

All

beleue
that
oure

haue
taughte
a nother
doctrine
sayenge
.
Here
is
Christe
and
there
is
Christe
.
But
none
saye
here
is
Christe
and
there
is
Christe
but
these
Masmongers
,
which
saye
that
they
(
thorow
their
speakinge
of
foure
wordes
,
scz
,
this
is
my

)
do
make
Christes
body
of

ther
to
be

and
bodely
presente

in

,
that
thei
might
offer
him
once
againe
for
a
sacrifice

made
for

not

This
doctrine
is
to
be
moch
suspected
to
be
a
false
doctrine
,
because
that
Christ
commaundeth
you
not
to
beleue
them
,
that
so
teach

And
Peter
sayeth
that

vntill

Consideringe
that

oure

in

Wherfore

be
not

more
ignoraunte
who
be
false
deceauers
,
wicked
prophetes
,
Christes
body

that

and
lienge
masters
the
natural
broode
of
Antichriste
The
same
secte
sayeth
,
that
Christ
is
in
secret
places
,
which
be
all
they
that
saye
,
Christes

For

sayeth
that
by
these
wordes
they
shall
deceaue

,
Which
doctrines
our
English
priestes
dayly
do
preach
.
Now
I
will
reherse
a nother
of
his
false
and
wicked
doctrines
,
Yet
a
false
doctrine
.
inuented
only
therby
to
maynteyne
a
nomber
of
ydle
harlottes
,
and
to
lead
innumerable
soules
thorow
a
false
fayeth
and
vayne
trust
,
in
to
hell
.
This
is
his
doctrine
of
purgatorie
the
pyke
purse
of
all
Christendome
.
And
although
the
holy
gooste
sayeth
/
that
by
mercy
and
sayth
synnes
be
purged
:
Yet
Yet
hath
this
Antichrist
founde
out
a
prison
,
Purgatorye
.
which
he
calleth
Purgatorie
,
therin
to
punysh
soules
,
vntill
other
he
,
or
some
of
his
marke
must
make
a
sacrifice
for
his
soule
in
his
ydolotrous
masse
.
But
it
were
no
good
policie
to
trust
to
moch
to
their
sacrifice
because
ther
is
no
mention
therof
made
in
any
place
of
the
holy
scripture
.
Nor
yet
is
it
wisdome
to
trust
moch
to
their
prayers
,
because
the
prophete
sayth
,
that
the
prayer
of
the
wicked
is
not
wel
hearde
of
God
,
Psa.
108.
but
rather
to
synne
.
Wherfore
it
is
beste
for
a
christen
man
to
trust
vnto
Gods
mercy
,
and
not
to
popish
sacrifices
nor
prayers
,
which
be
nother
mercy
nor
faith
.
And
we
be
sure
that
nother
the
mercy
of
God
nor
faith
in
Christe
,
be
in
the
Popes
handes
to
distribute
where
it
pleaseth
him
.
Wherfore
he
can
not
purge
soules
,
neither
of
their
sinnes
nor
of
the
peynes
dew
for
the
same
,
by
Gods
iudgemente
.
It
belongeth
only
to
God
to
purge
soules
from
their
sinnes
.
As
the
prophete
sayeth
.
Psal.
48.
No
man
can
delyuer
his
brother
,
nor
make
agreamente
for
him
to
God
,
for
it
costeth
more
to
redeme
their
soules
,
so
that
ye
must
let
that
alone
for
euer
.

Christe

coheire
with
Christe

to
whome
God
hath
promised

Therfore
the
Pope
shall
do
him
to
moch
wronge
,
to
ponish
him
for
his
sinnes
,
to
whom
God
hath
forgeuen
them
.
And
if
he
were
a
true
vicar
to
God

Christe
,
he
wold
not
so
cruelly
ponish
his
masters
childern
nor
louinge
seruantes
.
But
that
we
maye
not
trust
vnto
this
popish
purgatory
,
wherof
ther
is
no
mention
made
in
the
scriptures
.
Let
vs
resorte
vnto
the
holy
scriptures
wherin
we
may
heue
a
sure
hope
of
a
true
purgation
of
oure

that

walke

that

so
walck
in
the
darkenesse
of

&
trust
to
haue

,
that
they
can
neuer
come
to

,
but
go
assuredly
to

,
wher
no
purgation
of

can
be

because

sentence

iudgement
is
geuen
,
that

that
beleueth

is
alredy
condemned

Of

the

desireth
you
to
marke

well
to
take

Therfore

set

that

So

I

,
a
certen

token
geuen

of

warneth

abhomination

stande

For
the
true
declaration
of
the
which
texte
,
it
is
to
be
noted
,
honorable
lordes
,
that
the
Apostle
calleth
vs
the
temple
of
God
sayenge
:
1.
Cor.

The
temple
of
God
is
holy
,
which
be
you
Consideringe
that
we
be
the
temple
of
God
,
and
the
holy
place
.
What
more
abhomination
of
desolation
can
ther
be
in
the
holy
place
,
then
to
exile
God
out
of
his
temple
and
holy
place
,
not
only
by
the
workinge
of
manifolde
sinnes
,
fylthynes
,
and
detestable
wickednes
,
wherof
was
neuer
moare
plentie
vsed
:
but
also
in
the
stede
of
God
to
receaue
Antichriste
the
men
of
synne
,
and
childe
of
perdition
,
as
Paul
nameth
hym
?
Is
not
this
to
put
man
in
Gods
stede
,
when
we
trust
to
receaue
remission
of
sinnes
and
eternall
lyfe
of
the
Romish
Antichriste
,
and
that
in
perchmeyne
s●●●nes
,
consideringe
that
we
heare
not
him
preach
any
gospell
to
vs
,
wherby
oure
sinnes
shuld
be
forgeuen
vs
,
nor
yet
knoweth
he
any
of
our
sinnes
?
If
he
can
forgeue
vs
oure
sinnes
,
without
hearinge
oure
sinnes
nombred
vnto
him
;
and
without
speakinge
with
vs
,
wherfore
wyl
not
our
priestes
forgeue
vs
oure
sinnes
excepte
they
must
heare
them
tolde
in
to
their
eares

Is
not
this
abomination
of

standinge
in

?
To
geue
ouer
oure
trust
and
confidence
that
we
oughe
to
haue
of
remission
of
oure
sinnes
,
at
Gods
handes
for
Christes
sake
only
,
and
now
to
haue
confidence
to
haue
it
at
Antichristes
handes
(
for
a
litle
money
)
that
is
most
contrary
to
God
&
to
Christe
in
all
thinges
?
Oh
most
abomination

standinge
in

,
that
shulde
be
the
temple
of
God
,
and
the
dwellinge
place
of
the

goost
.
Is
it
not
a
foule
abomination
of
desolation
standinge
in
the
holy

?
In
the
stede
of
Christes
only
one
sacrifice
which
he
made
of
himselfe
to
God
his
father
for
vs
vpon

now
to

made

,
to
be

to
be

not

,
and
to
be
eaten
&
dronken
,
accordinge
to

Is

abhomination
of

in

Wherfore

The
deposition
and
putting

the
Emperours
Frederike
from
his
Empire
.
The
deposition
also
of
Otho
kinge
of
the
Longebardes
,
and
of
many
other
do
manifestly
beare
wytnes
Amongest
the
which
,
I
will
commende
vnto
your
lordships
memories
,
one
lamentable
historie
that
is
this
.
When
Henrich
the
fourth
Emperour
of
that
name
,
attempted
to
haue
the
election
of
the
Romish
bishop
,
as
his
noble
progenitours
before
him
had
.
One
Hyldibrāde
a
monke
beinge
then
the
Romish
bishop
,
and
named
him selfe
Gregory
the
seuenth
bisshop
ther
of
that
name
,
did
fearsly
withstande
the
said
Henrich
&
stered
vp
soch
intestine
sedition
and
warres
in
his
dominion
,
that
his
people
did
seke
meanes
to
chose
a
new
Emperoure
/
which
treason
,
beinge
forsene
of
the
said
Emperoure
and
of
his
counsaill
,
his
enimies
could
not
bring
their
wicked
enterprise
and
purpose
to
effecte
.
Then
the
said
Monkish
pope
Gregorie
(
whose
couetousnes
,
ambition
,
and
pride
,
all
the
Italian
writers
can
worthelie
testifie
,
Amongest
whom
Beno
the
cardinal
,
most
earnestlie
&
plainly
paynteth
and
setteth
forth
the
same
)
excomunicated
the
said
Henrich
and
as
many
as
did
either
ayde
him
with
power
riches
or
vitailes
,
And
did
forther
absolue
and
discharge
al
the
subiectes
of
the
said
Henrich
of
their
obedience
towardes
him
,
which
they
by
Gods
lawes
did
owe
vnto
the
said
Emperoure
.
And
then
,
in
open
proclamations
made
in
all
the
dominions
of
the
said
Henrich
,
he
burdened
and
sclaundered
the
said
Henrich
with
the
most
odious
and
greuous
title
and
name
,
Heretike
▪
and
schismatike
,
enemie
to
God
and
to
all
holy
church
,
wherby
many
of
his
frendes
and
subiectes
(
euen
al
they
in
whose
consciences
did
sitte
Antichriste
,
occupienge
Gods
holy
place
)
did
flie
and
departe
from
the
said
Emperoure
.
Wherby
the
power
of
the
said
Emperoure
was
greatlye
decayed
and
minished
.
And
then
Hildibrande
the
monkish
Pope
bestered
him
busylie
,
and
caused
one
Rodulph
duke
of
Sweuclande
to
be
elected
Emperour
:
Who
after
great
bloodshedinge
lost
his
lyfe
and
Empire
.
After
him
,
by
Gregories
commaundemente
one
Herman
Earle
of
Lucenburge
was
chosen
Emperour
,
who
after
great
manslaghter
was
sleyne
in
the
warres
and
lost
his
life
and
Empire
.
And
thridly
thorow
treason
wrought
by
Gregorie
,
was
one
Marchio
Echerte
chosen
to
be
Emperour
,
who
after
greate
slaghter
of
christen
men
lost
not
only
his
Empire
but
also
his
lyfe
,
which
cruell
warres
finished
,
with
no
litle
bloodsheding
gaue
occasion
to
other
princes
,
to
feare
to
fyght
againste
the
said
Henrich
,
because
of
the
great
murther
and
deeth
of
these
thre
noble
princes
.
But
yet
the
malice
and
cruell
ambition
of
the
hearte
of
that
monkish
pope
Gregory
,
coulde
not
be
pacified
,
but
that
for
his
priuate
lucre
&
honour
he
wolde
maynteyne
so
blody
warres
,
neuer
beinge
moued
to
mercye
nor
pitie
with
the
destruction
of
so
many
cities
and
townes
set
a
fyre
and
myserably
wasted
,
nor
with
the
destruction
,
treadinge
downe
and
vtter
waste
made
of
so
many
feldes
of
corne
and
grasse
,
nor
yet
with
the
shedinge
of
so
moch
christen
blood
,
nor
with
the
lamentacion
and
mourninge
of
so
many
widowes
for
their
husbandes
sleyne
,
nor
with
the
greuous
outerye
of
Orphanes
that
dyed
for
lacke
of
bodylye
foode
,
nor
for
anye
euill
that
ensueth
the
furious
warres
,
wold
this
holy
father
leaue
of
his
workinge
of
sedition
and
treason
.
Oh
horrible
monster
?
Againste
nature
he
stered
vp
Henrich
the
only
sonne
of
Henrich
the
fourth
to
gather
a
great
army
against
his
owne
naturall
father
,
who
nether
for
publike
nor
priuate
wronge
done
by
his
father
to
him
,
noe
any
other
euil
was
prouoked
therto
.
Neuerthelesse
he
did
not
only
vnnaturally
forsake
his
father
,
&
withdraw
his
ayde
from
his
father
in
the
time
of
neade
,
but
thorowe
the
treason
wroughte
by
Gregorie
&
by
his
helpe
he
circumuented
his
father
and
oppressed
him
with
power
,
did
take
him
prisoner
in
the
warres
,
and
leed
him
captiue
to
prison
,
where
he
put
his
awne
father
myserablye
to
death
.
Behold
,
right
honorable
Lordes
,
a
tragedie
moare
then
cruell
and
bloody
.
Behold
the
charitie
of
oure
holy
fathers
of
Rome
:
By
this
facte
they
haue
setforth
soch
exemple
of
wickednes
,
as
neuer
was
before
seene
or
hearde
of
.
If
their
sedition
,
treason
,
oppression
,
craftes
and
subtelties
be
well
wayed
and
pondered
of
all
wicked
men
they
maye
most
iustlie
be
called
,
not
only
a
wicked
synner
,
but
also
the
man
of
sinne
.
From
whome
all
the
detestable
and
great
sinnes
of
the
world
procede
although
there
shuld
not
be
had
in
remembrance
all
their
dispensations
for
the
stewes
of
whorish
women
and
of
fylthy
and
abhominable
Sodomitical
lustes
,
for
Symonye
,
vsurye
,
and
all
other
vices
to
regne
in
the
worlde
.
Now
,
righte
honorable
lordes
,
I
trust
that
I
haue
sufficiently
set
forth
this
monstrus
&
furious
beast
Antichrist
,
as
well
by
his
false
doctrines
,
that
I
haue
not
fayned
to
be
false
of
myne
owne
brayne
and
phantesye
:
but
of
the
manifest
sayenge
of
Christe
&
his
Apostles
,
so
plainly
spoken
that
they
be
nether
obscure
,
darke
,
nor
hard
to
be
vnderstande
.
Who
also
haue
commaunded
all
men
to
beware
of
them
,
&
of
the
teachers
of
them
,
Rom.
16.
&
so
to
departe
&
decline
from
them
.
I
haue
also
set
forth
his
tyranny
,
his
sedition
,
his
treason
,
his
crafty
and
false
deceates
,
wherwith
he
hath
circumuented
,
oppressed
and
deceaued
,
many
Emperours
,
kinges
and
other
noble
rulers
to
whome
Christ
commaunded
hym
to
obeye
,
Mat.
17.
and
gaue
him
also
a
manifeste
and
playne
example
when
he
payed
tribute
for
himselfe
and
Peter
.
And
by
his
owne
obedience
vsed
and
practised
vnto
the
higher
powers
&
vnto
their
lawes
.
He
neuer
gaue
him
exemple
,
authoritie
or
power
to
depose
other
Emperoure
,
kinge
or
any
other
cyuil
rules
.
And
therfore
for
this
his
disobedience
towardes
God
,
and
for
all
his
other
iniquities
,
he
is
iustly
called
the
man
of
sinne
,
a
child
of
eternal
perdition
.
So
that
he
is
worse
than
a
beast
,
or
the
most
frantike
madde
man
that
euer
was
madde
,
that
ether
wil
saye
or
thinke
,
that
he
is
other
.
Christes
vicare
,
or
successoure
to
the
Apostle
.
But
rather
the
deuels
vicar
and
successoure
,
or
clothe
deuel
himselfe
.
For
as
by
the
frute
the
tree
is
most
certenly
knowen
,
euen
so
〈◊〉
,
your
lordships
,
by
these
his
false
doctrines
&
al
other
his
wickednes
,
assuredly
knowen
him
to
〈◊〉
man
of
synne
veraye
Antichriste
himselfe
:
And
all
his
wicked
generation
to
be
the
sectes
of
perdition
,
the
wicked
brood
of
Antichriste
,
most
contrary
to
God
and
Christe
.
Wherfore
he
most
falsly
vsurpeth
to
him
the
title
and
name
of
holy
father
,
or
of
Christes
vicar
in
earth
,
or
successoure
of
the
Apostles
.
But
moch
more
worthely
and
truly
is
called
Antichrist
the
most
malitious
enemie
and
hatefull
aduersarie
of
Christ
,
as
both
his
doctrines
,
his
decrees
&
wicked
lawes
,
his
pride
exaltinge
him selfe
aboue
al
Emperours
&
kinges
,
his
dispensational
for
sinne
to
be
vsed
in
the
church
of
God
,
his
vanities
where
with
he
deludeth
and
bewytcheth
the
people
▪
all
his
forged
and
fayned
holynes
,
his
hypocrisis
,
dissimulation
,
sedition
,
treason
,
most
seuere
crueltie
,
and
all
other
his
wickednes
and
most
detestable
lyst
of
both
hym
and
all
his
fluttish
generation
of
serpentes
,
and
filthy
secte
of
infideles
do
manifestly
proue
and
testifie
before
all
men
.
So
that
doubtles
,
the●
can
not
be
any
thinge
more
contrary
to
God
and
Christe
,
then
he
himself
and
his
wicked
broede
do
in
all
thinges
.
Consideringe
that
youre
lordshipe
be
not
now
ignoraunce
(
as
my
trust
is
what
thinge
Antichrist
is
,
but
that
you
wel
vnderstande
and
knowe
that
all
they
that
be
come
in
to
the
church
to
occupie
an
misterie
,
office
or
vocation
contrary
to
Gods
worde
and
Christes
ordinaunce
and
appointementes
,
or
abuse
his
sacramentes
contrarye
to
his
ordinaunces
,
or
that
teach
any
false
doctrine
,
or
that
take
vpon
them
any
of
Christes
honoure
or
power
,
be
veraye
Antichristes
,
which
is
as
moch
to
saye
as
againste
Christe
.
Wherfore
,
right
honorable
lordes
,
I
hope
that
God
will
open
the
eyes
of
your
heartes
that
you
maye
nowe
at
the
last
see
and
well
perceaue
,
by
what
crafte
,
falseed
and
subtile
deuyses
,
you
haue
ben
deceaued
,
&
entised
to
serue
Antichrist
in
the
stede
of
Christe
:
the
deuel
in
the
stede
of
God
:
to
folowe
false
superstition
,
in
the
stede
of
Christes
true
religion
:
hypocrisie
and
vanitie
,
in
the
stede
of
the
christen
veritie
.
And
in
conclusion
,
that
you
maye
well
vnderstande
,
that
you
of
al
men
,
haue
ben
most
blinded
in
your
iudgementes
,
most
fylthilie
corrupted
,
and
your
vnderstandinge
and
senses
most
shamfully
deluded
,
begyled
and
bewitched
.
Therfore
,
my
good
Lordes
,
nowe
renewe
youre
wits
and
vnderstandinges
.
And
knowe
you
certenly
that
all
your
lordly
lorde
bisshops
be
of
the
naturall
broede
of
Antichriste
.
Who
with
all
subtiltie
policie
and
falsheed
studie
and
labour
to
obscure
the
light
of
Gods
worde
,
why
they
make
the
nobles
partakers
.
and
to
subuerte
the
ordenaunces
of
Christ
and
of
his
Apostles
and
obstinatly
defend
their
errours
and
euill
doinges
and
make
you
their
ministers
to
murther
your
brethern
for
their
faith
,
against
your
conscience
to
wrappe
you
and
your
posteritie
in
Gods
displeasure
with
them
.
And
because
your
lordships
shall
not
be
deceaued
in
them
.
I
haue
geuen
you
the
comon
token
signe
and
marke
,
wherby
you
&
al
men
can
not
but
know
them
to
be
against
Christ
and
his
worde

Where
Christe
sayde
to
Peter
,
feede
,
feede
,
feede
,
Which
is
to
saye
:
teach
,
teach
,
teach

They
take
teachinge
for
no
parte
of
their
office
,
but
only
to
multiplie
a
sorte
of
blinde
ceremonies
,
to
bringe
the
people
from
knowleage
of
Christe
,
and
to
kepe
them
vnder
in
ignorance
with
crueltie
,
And
that
they
maye
bringe
that
to
passe
,
they
laboure
to
be

and
to
haue
temporal
offices
contrary
to

.
The

and
they
that
beare
rule
ouer
them
be
called
gratious
lordes
.
But
you
shall
not
be
so
.
That
is
you
shall
not
take
upon
you
to
haue
ciuill
gouernaunce
and

,
ne
yet
to

S.
Peter
commaundeth
all
bishops
and
soch
as
haue
spirituall
charge
of
soules
committed
to
them
,
to
feede
the
flocke
of
Christe
willingly
(
as
Christe
commaunded
him
)
and
not
to
be
lordes
ouer
the
parishes
,
but
euen
as
they
were
one
of
the
flocke
.
Yet
your
lordships
well
perceaue
that
oure
bishops
,
not
only
take
to
them selfes
the
name
of
lorde
and
gratious
lorde
:
but
also
procure
to
haue
both
cyuell
gouernaunce
and
rule
ouer
the
people
,
as
to
be
Lorde
chaunceloure
,
Lorde
presidente
,
and
to
haue
the
hearinge
of
testamentary
causes
,
of
whoredone
,
of
dyuorses
,
of
slaunders
,
which
be
no
spirituall
matters
Except
a
man
will
so
call
them
,
bycause
that
they
that
boast
to
be
spirituall
only
,
do
most
vse
them
.
And
as
for
preachinge
(
where
with
Christe
chiefly
chargeth
his
ministers
)
is
the
least
poynte
of
their
charge
.
But
they
must
attende
vpon
bysshoppinge
of
childern
,
christeninge
of
belles
,
of
churches
&
churchyardes
,
altares
,
and
soch
other
baggage
and
abominations
as
were
neuer
commaunded
of
Christe
,
nor
yet
practised
not
knowen
of
his
Apostles
.
Wherby
they
maye
easlye
be
knowen
not
to
be
of
Christ
but
against
Christ
and
very
Antichristes
.
In
lyke

many
beneficed
men
be
within
this
Realme
as
well
bishops
,
as
deanes
,
Archedeacons
,
persons
,
uicars
,
and
prebendaries
which
take
the
profites
from
their
benefices
/
and
do
not
feede
their
flock
with
the
word
of
God
?
Mat.

with
out
the
which
the
soules
of
the
flocke
can
not
lyue
.
Wherfore
they
steale
the
profites
that
do
not
the
office
.
And
of
their
cruell
mortheringe
(
you
haue
to
moch
experience
)
&
that
nother
of
thefe
,
mortherere
,
robber
,
or
traytour
:
but
of
the
best
lerned
men
of
this
realme
or
that
euer
were
in
this
realme
:
Euen
of
soch
as
were
hable
to
reproue
and
controlle
them
in
all
thinges
by
Gods
worde
.
Wherin
they
deceaue
and
mocke
you
,
and
all
the
people
.
And
to
proue
them
veraye
theues
,
And
as
,
youre
lordships
haue
to
moch
experience
of
their
stealinge
and
of
their
mortheringe
:
Euen
so
shal
your
lordships
not
sayle
to
haue
more
certen
and
sure
experience
,
that
they
shal
be
most
miserable
destroyers
of
this
realme
of
Englande
,
and
that
at
soch
tyme
,
when
your
lordships
nor
any
of
youre
posteritie
,
shal
be
hable
to
prouyde
any
helpe
or
remedie
to
redresse
their
destruction
.
For
euen
as
Christes
wordes
be
vnfaynedly
true
that
the
thefe
cometh
not
for
any
purpose
but
to
steale
and
to
kyll
,
so
must
the
residew
of
his
wordes
,
euer
be
founde
to
be
true
,
most
certen
and
sure
,
that
is
,
that
he
shall
also
destroye
.
And
although
you
now
do
not
regard
nor
beleue
Christes
wordes
to
be
true
,
yet
,
when
you
thinke
least
theron
,
your
infidelitie
shal
be
requyred
with
the
fealinge
and
peynful
sufferinge
the
destruction
of
you
,
and
of
youre
posterytie
,
and
the
most
miserable
chaunge
and
alteration
of
the
state
of
this
realme
.
This
miserable
mischiefe
ensueth
and
cometh
of
this
misorder
that
the
gouernaunce
of
this
realme
,
by
your
lordships
consentes
,
hath
be
committed
and
done
agaynst
God
,
in
makinge
a
bishop
(
that
by
Gods
worde
and
appointemente
was
assigned
to
feed
the
flocke
committed
to
his
spirituall
charge
)
to
leaue
his
office
,
committed
to
hym
by
God
to
be
executed
and
done
,
to
be
a
chauncelour
wher
by
he
was
so
occupied
and
busied
in
the
hearinge
of
the
matters
&
affaires
of
this
realme
,
that
he
could
not
attende
his
flocke
to
feade
them
accorddinge
to
Christes
commaundemente
.
Wherby
he
was
put
out
of
that
order
and
rule
that
God
had
appointed
to
him
.
Beinge
out
of
the
which
order
&
appointemente
of
God
,
he
could
neuer
be
commodietie
or
profite
to
this
realme
.
For
he
was
entred
into
the
office
not
by
the
dore
Christ
,
but
ascended
by
a nother
waye
,
&
therfore
was
a
thefe
,
from
whome
no
good
counsaill
or
any
other
godlines
can
procede
,
nor
more
then
of
thornes
maye
grapes
be
gadered
.
And
that
his
doinges
will
proue
to
well
.
For
in
that
office
he
hath
brought
to
passe
by
his
counsaill
and
persuasion
,
and
by
your
lordships
sufferaunces
,
soch
incurable
euill
,
that
all
Englande
shall
lamente
and
bewayle
the
same
.
Not
only
in
kyllinge
the
preachers
and
lerned
men
of
this
realem
,
but
also
in
the
vtt●r
destruction
of
this
Realme
,
&
the
alteration
of
the
state
and
honour
of
the
same
.
And
although
God
hath
delyuered
you
of
that
spirituall
thefe
.
Yet
be
your
lordships
and
all
the
Realme
burdened
with
a nother
in
the
same
office
,
that
shall
do
no
lesse
euil
then
the
other
hath
done
.
Yf
so
moch
euill
maye
be
done
.
For
as
a
ioynte
ordeyned
by
God
in
the
bodye
,
is
appointed
and
set
in
a
dew
order
to
helpe
the
bodie
,
which
ioynte
beinge
out
of
that
order
that
God
hath
set
it
in
,
can
not
be
any
commoditie
and
helpe
to
the
bodie
,
but
great
peyne
and
trouble
to
the
bodye
.
Euen
in
lyke
maner
,
if
a
bishop
,
that
is
appointed
and
ordeyned
by
God
to
teach
his
flocke
,
be
taken
from
that
office
wher
in
God
had
assigned
and
ordered
him
:
he
can
neuer
be
profitable
but
great
hurte
and
peyne
to
the
bodie
.
For
I
thinke
that
there
is
no
man
that
hath
any
knowlege
in
the
holy
scriptures
or
any
good
conscience
towarde
God
,
but
he
well
knoweth
that
a
bisshop
that
feedeth
not
his
flocke
is
a
thefe
.
Otherwise
he
beleueth
not
Christe
to
be
true
in
his
wordes
,
And
if
he
be
a
thefe
(
as
the
trueth
sayeth
he
is
)
then
is
his
cominge
for
no
nother
purpose
,
then
to
steale
,
to
kyll
and
to
destroye
.
And
who
so
euer
doubteth
ther
of
,
doubteth
whether
Christe
be
true
.
And
I
feare
me
that
because
the
gouernours
haue
not
beleued
Christe
to
be
true
,
that
they
shall
proue
it
true
by
experience
,
to
their
great
peyne
.
Soch
shal
be
the
frutes
of
a
bishop
set
in
autoritie
to
be
a
counselour
for
the
temporall
affaires
of
the
Realme
,
that
he
is
one
of
them
that
is
come
to
steal
,
to
kill
and
to
destroye
.
Of
whome
God
by
his
prophete
Esai
,
complayneth
sayenge
:
Esay
.
1.
Heare
oh
heauens
,
and
herken
oh
earth
,
for
the
Lorde
speaketh
.
I
haue
noreshed
and
brought
vp
childerne
,
and
they
are
fallen
awaye
from
me
.
How
happeneth
it
that
the
righteous
citie
which
was
ful
of
equitie
,
is
become
vnfaithful
as
an
whore
?
Rightuousnes
dwelled
in
her
,
but
now
mortherers
.
In
tymes
past
,
it
was
the
office
of
Nero
and
of
other
tyrantes
to
tormentt
men
to
death
for
their
faith
:
but
now
oure
english
bishops
haue
taken
vpon
them
to
put
the
tyrantes
out
of
that
office
.
For
they
them selfes
condemne
both
lerned
and
vnlerned
for
their
faith
,
and
make
you
,
right
honorable
lordes
,
to
execute
the
office
.
That
they
might
set
forth
to
all
men
,
that
they
be
the
veraye
theues
,
of
whom
Christ
(
that
can
not
lie
)
speaketh
.
Whose
cominge
is
for
no
nother
purpose
then
to
steale
,
to
kill
,
and
to
destroye
.
And
yet
to
deceaue
the
people
,
they
be
crepte
in
vnder
the
cloke
of
my
lorde
bishop
,
a
reuerende
father
.
But
to
this
my
lorde
bisshops
and
their
accomplisshes
saye
:
that
they
kil
none
for
their
fayth
but
for
their
heresie
,
which
ought
of
all
Christen
men
to
be
abhorred
and
auoyded
,
accordinge
to
the
true
sayenge
of
the
Apostle
,
that
commaundeth
sayenge
an
heretike
,
after
he
is
twise
reproued
auoyd
him
.
2.
Tit.
3.
But
yet
sayeth
he
not
kil
min
,
but
auoyd
him
.
As
al
the
fathers
of
the
primatiue
church
haue
shewed
manifest
example
in
the
exile
of
many
that
in
veraye
dede
were
heretikes
approued
by
gods
worde
to
be
heretikes
,
and
yet
were
not
persecuted
to
deeth
for
their
heresyes
Vntil
Antichrist
of
Rome
the
heed
of
al
heretikes
by
crafte
,
gyle
and
falsheed
seduced
and
begyled
the
Emperours
and
kinges
,
and
robbed
them
of
their
dominions
and
powers
,
wherby
the
hath
exalted
him selfe
not
only
aboue
them
,
but
also
aboue
God
.
And
then
became
he
a
most
cruell
tyrant
,
and
made
lawes
of
death
,
for
all
soch
as
he
and
his
fylthy
secte
did
adiuge
heretikes
,
Therby
colourably
to
morther
and
destroye
,
all
soch
as
did
ones
speake
or
preach
against
his
vsurped
power
,
or
by
any
meanes
reueyle
his
iniquitie
for
that
calleth
he
and
all
his
filthye
generation
of
infideles
heresie
.
Which
exemple
of
makinge
of
lyke
lawes
oure
english
bishops
did
compasse
and
bringe
to
passe
about
the
yere
of
oure
Lorde
1420.
then
beinge
a
bishop
Lorde
Chaunceloure
and
a nother
lorde
priuey
Seale
,
wherby
being
in
great
authoritie
&
high
estimation
amongest
the
nobles
and
counselours
thorow
flattery
circumuented
the
kinge
,
and
his
counsaill
,
and
other
of
the
nobles
to
make
a
law
in
Englande
to
suppresse
heresie
spronge
vp
in
this
realme
.
But
what
that
heresie
was
that
must
only
be
adiudged
,
by
the
Antichristes
lawes
and
by
his
sworen
secte
the
generation
of
infideles
,
the
enemyes
of
God
&
aduersaries
of
Christe
.
For
as
it
is
reported
by
cronicles
,
it
was
the
reuelation
of
Antichristes
iniquitie
,
that
he
calleth
heresye
.
Forther
to
colour
their
cruel
tirannie
,
they
sayed
with
their
forfathers
the
Bishops
,
Priestes
,
Scribes
,
and
Phariseys
,
and
the
rest
of
the
Iewish
clergie
:
It
is
not
lawfull
to
vs
for
to
sley
any
man
.
And
as
for
vs
,
ye
may
trust
well
inough
,
we
be
to
holy
to
deceaue
you
.
You
maye
frely
without
scrupulositie
of
conscience
,
crucifie
whome
so
euer
we
committe
in
to
youre
handes
.
For
if
he
be
not
an
euill
doer
,
we
wil
neuer
deliuer
him
vnto
you
.
Youre
honours
neade
neuer
to
examine
the
cause
,
but
boldly
burne
him
.
Oure
soules
for
youres
.
His
blood
vpon
oure
heades
.
And
by
soch
subtile
meanes
made
all
Kinges
,
and
Officers
of
Englande
,
that
haue
bin
synce
,
their
tourmentours
,
and
hange
men
.
A
goodly
office
that
they
haue
sett
all
kinges
and
you
,
right
honorable
lordes
,
in
.
They
haue
made
the
kinge
and
you
their
hange
men
,
&
not
a
whit
better
.
And
yet
for
al
their
warrantyse
&
puttinge
their
soules
for
youres
,
&
though
ye
wash
neuer
so
cleane
your
hande
with
Pylate
.
when
ye
thus
morther
the
innocentes
for
their
saith
in
Iesu
Christe
,
be
assured
that
Gods
curse
will
not
departe
from
you
&
youre
howses
excepce
ye
spedelye
repente
.
But
how
that
law
agreeth
with
Gods
worde
it
shal
appere
.
Euen
as
God
&
the
deuel
,
Christ
,
and
Antichrist
,
light
,
and
darkenes
.
First
God
by
his
Prophet
Esai
sayeth
:
Esai
.
11.
they
shal
not
hurte
,
nor
shall
they
kil
in
all
my
holy
hyll
.
By
this
holy
hil
,
meaning
this
his
church
.
Wherfore
yf
youre
lordly
Lorde
bishops
were
true
ministres
in
this
church
,
they
wold
not
morther
any
man
for
his
faith
/
or
for
want
of
a
good
faith
,
which
he
can
not
haue
of
his
awne
power
and
studie
.
The
Prophet
Hieremie
sayeth
also
:
Iere.
7.
Behold
these
men
saye
vnto
me
,
where
is
the
worde
of
the
Lorde
.
Let
it
come
.
Where
as
I
neuer
the
lesse
leading
the
flocke
in
thy
wayes
,
haue
compelled
no
man
by
violence
,
for
I
neuer
desired
mans
deeth
.
This
knowest
thou
well
.
Here
Hieremie
sayeth
that
he
leading
the
flocke
in
the
Lordes
wayes
,
compelled
none
by
violence
to
walke
therin
.
This
doctrine
and
exemple
geuen
by
Hieremie
agreeth
but
sclenderlye
with
Antichristes
canons
,
decrees
,
&
lawes
,
nor
with
the
law
newly
reuyued
by
your
lordships
consentes
,
and
laste
of
all
with
youre
bishops
mortheringe
and
tormentinge
of
your
lerned
men
.
Also
when
Christe
going
vnto
Hierusalem
,
Ioan
and
Iames
entered
in
to
a
citie
of
the
Samaritanes
to
make
prouision
for
Christe
.
But
the
citesins
wold
not
receaue
Christ
.
Wherfore
Ioan
and
Iames
retourned
to
Christ
,
and
shewed
to
him
the
vnkindnes
of
the
citesins
sayeng
vnto
him
:
Master
will
thou
that
we
commaundye
fyre
to
come
from
heauen
,
and
consume
them
?
Iesus
turned
to
them
/
and
rebuked
them
sayenge
:
You
know
not
of
what
spirit
ye
be
.
The
sonne
of
man
is
not
come
to
destroye
mens
lyues
,
but
to
saue
them
.
If
your
lordly
lorde
bisshops
were
Christes
true
seruantes
,
then
wold
they
folow
his
doctrine
and
example
.
As
Christ
sayeth
.
He
that
serueth
me
,
let
him
folow
me
.
Ioh.
18.
Ioan.
12.
And
he
that
foloweth
me
walketh
not
in
darknes
.
But
all
men
maye
perceaue
that
this
their
mortheringe
,
is
mere
contrary
to
both
Christes
doctrine
and
example
,
and
vtterly
bewrayeth
them
to
be
the
seruantes
of
Antichriste
.
As
Paul
sayeth
:
1.
Tim.
5.
Good
deades
be
manifeste
,
and
they
that
be
euyll
can
not
be
hid
.
The
parable
of
Christe
of
the
tares
sowed
by
the
enemie
vpon
the
good
seed
which
the
master
wold
not
haue
drawen
vp
vntill
harueste
(
leste
drawinge
vp
the
tares
,
Math.
3.
the
good
wheate
shuld
also
haue
ben
drawen
vp
)
declareth
manifestlie
,
that
Christe
wold
not
any
man
of
an
euil
faith
,
to
be
killed
for
his
euill
faith
.
For
if
Paul
had
byn
tormented
to
deeth
,
for
wante
of
a
good
faith
,
when
he
was
a
persequuter
of
Christes
church
.
He
then
had
neuer
bin
the
Apostle
of
the
gentiles
,
ne
yet
the
most
laborious
worke
man
that
euer
wrought
in
Christes
vinyard
.
And
if
Sainte
Augustine
had
founde
so
cruell
tyrantes
to
haue
persequuted
him
to
deeth
before
he
was
conuerted
by
God
at
the
preachinge
of
S.
Ambrose
:
them
the
church
had
wā●ed
at
this
daye
,
as
godly
a
doctor
&
wryter
as
euer
wrote
in
Christes
church
sence
the
Apostles
.
But
ouer
&
besides
Christes
doctrine
and
exmple
,
which
be
not
any
errours
or
vperfite
doctrines
,
the
Apostles
doctrine
is
:
that
the
seruante
of
God
shulde
not
stryue
,
2.
Tim.

but
to
be
gentle
to
al
men
apte
to
teach
,
and
one
that
can
suffer
,
the
euill
with
mekenes
,
and
can
enforme
them
that
resiste
the
trueth
.
He
sayeth
not
,
can
kill
them
that
resiste
the
trueth
,
but
can
enforme
them
.
For
neither
he
nor
nay
man
can
know
when
it
shall
please
God
to
open
the
eyes
of
his
heart
,
and
to
geue
vnto
him
a
perfite
faith
,
which
now
ys
holden
captiue
in
vnbelefe
,
at
the
wil
of
the
Lorde
.
This
doctine
of
the
Apostle
,
although
you
wil
not
geue
credite
therto
,
yet
proueth
it
manifestly
before
all
men
that
your
lordly
lorde
bishops
be
not
the
seruauntes
of
God
,
that
shuld
suffer
the
euill
accordinge
to
Christes
doctrine
and
example
.
And
also
this
doctrine
of
the
Apostle
proueth
,
that
youre
law
reuyued
,
is
against
the
doctrine
of
Christe
and
of
his
Apostle
,
And
therfore
is
a
wicked
law
inuented
by
Antichriste
,
and
his
filthy
genration
,
and
sluttish
secte
of
infideles
,
to
subuert
&
extinguish
al
godly
knowleage
&

sende

by

and
haue
no

with

that
he
may
be
ashamed
.
And
counte
him
not
as
an

:
but
warne
him
as
a
brother
.
Perceaue
ye
not
,
honorable
lordes
,
how
contrary
your
bishops
be
to
Christe
,
and
how
contrarie
they
be
to
his
doctrine
,
and
to
the
doctrine
of
his
Apostles
,
and
also
how
wicked
your
law
lately
by
your
consentes
reuyued
is
,
contrary
to
Gods
worde
?
But
good
my
lordes
,
thinke
not
that
you
can
gather
grapes
vpon
thornes
.
This
their
mortheringe
of
their
brethern
for
their
faith
,
declareth
vnto
all
men
(
whose
vnderstandinge
is
not
taken
awaye
by
God
)
that
they
be
the
theues
of
which
Christe
speaketh
,
Ioh.
8.
of
whome
can
not
come
any
good
frute
.
For
morther
is
a
worke
that
proueth
them
to
be
the
deuels
seruantes
,
who
was
a
mortherer
from
the
beginninge
,
sayeth
Christ
that
lyeth
not
.
But
as
Abraham
had
two
children
,
one
borne
after
the
fleshe
called
Ismael
,
Gal.
4.
and
an
other
after
the
spirite
called
Isaac
.
As
then
he
that
was
borne
carnally
persecuted
him
that
was
borne
spirituallye
,
euen
so
is
it
now
sayeth
Sainte
Paul
Did
Christ
,
my
good
lordes
,
compel
any
man
to
come
to
his
religion
,
with
imprisonemente
,
or
with
fyre
?
Did
Christe
kill
the
Iewes
,
scribes
,
&
pharisees
that
hearinge
his
doctrine
,
and
seinge
also
his
wonderous
miracles
,
not
withstandinge
both
wold
not
beleue
in
him
?
Ys
not
faith
,
honorable
lordes
,
the
only
gifte
of
God
,
liberally
geuen
to
whome
it
pleaseth
him
?
Can
any
man
by
his
awne
industry
,
studie
,
and
laboure
obteyne
faith
?
If
you
will
suffer
youre
byteshepes
so
cruelly
to
morther
men
for
wante
of
soch
faith
as
it
hath
pleased
them
to
deuyse
,
by
lyke
equitie
and
Reason
maye
you
suffer
them
to
morther
all
them
that
haue
not
the
lyberall
gifte
of
God
to
make
whole
the
sicke
.
And
also
with
moare
equitie
you
your selfes
maye
hange
vp
the
bishop
of
London
and
all
youre
other
bisshops
&
preistes
as
theues
and
mortherers
,
that
take
charge
of
soules
&
receaue
the
profites
of
their
benefices
,
which
haue
not
the
gifte
of
God
to
preach
the
gospell
to
the
flocke
,
accordinge
to
Christes
commaundemente
.
And
by
no
lesse
equitie
,
all
they
must
suffer
deeth
that
haue
not
the
gift
of
chastitie
,
allthough
to
deceaue
the
people
,
they
saye
,
they
haue
auowed
it
.
And
although
,
your
lordships
,
as
ye
thinke
,
do
not
any
violence
against
soch
as
now
suffer
by
force
of
that
wicked
law
,
that
by
youre
consentes
is
reuiued
,
because
your
lordships
haue
referred
al
the
determination
&
iudgemente
of
heresie
vnto
your
byteshepes
.
Yet
,
be
your
lordships
and
all
they
that
haue
consented
to
the
reuiuinge
and
makinge
in
force
&
strength
of
the
sayd
law
,
gyltie
of
the
blood
and
deeth
of
all
them
that
haue
suffered
deeth
,
shall
suffer
or
do
suffer
,
by
force
&
s
;
trength
of
the
said
law
.
For
not
only
all
they
that
committe
&
do
euill
be
worthy
deeth
(
sayeth
Paul
)
but
also
all
they
that
consente
therto
.
Rom.
1.
Not
only
because
the
law
by
force
wherof
many
suffer
deeth
was
reuyued
by
your
consentes
.
But
also
bycause
the
same
law
is
manifest
wicked
&
vnrightuous
because
it
is
contrary
to
the
worde
of
God
.
Wherfore
it
can
not
be
but
wicked
.
And
therfore
the
same
law
wherby
all
they
suffer
vniustlie
,
and
the
blood
of
them
that
suffer
deeth
,
shal
be
a
witnes
before
God
against
you
of
their
tormentes
and
deeth
.
And
then
good
,
my
lordes
,
remember
the
sentence
of
God
pronounced
against
al
them
that
shede
innocente
blood
vnrightuously
,
not
only
that
they
be
mortherers
,
who
shal
neuer
inheret
the
kingedome
of
heauen
.

But
also
the
holy
goost
sayeth
:
he
that
shedeth
innocente
blood
of
men
,
his
blood
shal
be
shed
againe
by
men
.
If
your
lordships
do
not
thinke
God
false
in
his
promises
,
loke
most
certenly
for
your
blood
(
if
ye
do
not
vnfaynedly
&
spedely
repente
)
to
be
shed
of
men
againe
.
And
although
you
wold
,
not
beleue
the
promises
of
God
to
be
true
.
Yet
way
you
the
late
experience
of
that
trueth
verefied
in
the
late
dukes
of
Somerset
and
Northumberlande
,
whose
doinges
to
al
them
that
did
know
them
,
do
manifestlie
prooue
the
sayed
promises
of
God
to
be
most
certenly
and
truely
verefied
in
them
.
As
they
can
not
be
otherwise
in
all
men
.
And
now
,
I
trust
your
lordships
do
well
vnderstande
and
perceaue
,
that
this
law
by
your
consentes
lately
reuiued
,
&
made
a
law
in
force
and
stength
,
is
contrary
both
to
the
doctrine
and
example
of
Christe
and
of
his
Apostles
and
Prophetes
.
Wherfore
it
can
not
be
but
a
wicked
law
.
Esai
.
10.
Woo
therfore
be
vnto
you
that
make
wicked
lawes
,
sayeth
God
by
his
prophe
Esaias
,
And
if
a nother
magistrate
shuld
(
by
the
prouision
of
God
)
be
called
to
reigne
oue
vs
,
who
iudgeth
the
forme
of
religion
last
receaued
of
vs
,
to
be
contrary
to
Gods
worde
,
and
therfore
to
be
worthely
abolished
,
then
maye
he
persecute
all
youre
bishops
and
then
that
now
haue
consented
to
morther
christen
men
for
their
fayth
,
but
nor
because
he
perceaueth
that
they
haue
no
perfite
faith
,
or
els
a
wicked
faith
(
for
then
should
he
commit
lyke
iniquitie
)
but
because
the
worde
of
God
sayeth
:
The
same
measure
that
you
haue
measured
to
other
,
the
same
shal
be
measured
to
you
againe
.
By
this
sentence
,
that
is
no
wicked
law
,
al
youre
mortheringe
bishops
maye
iustly
be
handles
as
they
haue
handled
them
.
This
law
of
late
,
by
youre
consentes
,
reuyued
and
made
in
force
and
strength
as
a
perfite
law
,
doeth
not
only
reproue
youre
lordships
of
youre
inconstauncie
,
who
not
longe
tyme
before
vpon
reasonable
and
godly
causes
,
wel
wayed
,
frely
disputed
and
reasoned
,
did
dysanull
,
make
frustrate
&
voyed
the
same
as
a
wicked
law
:
but
also
this
youre
sodeine
reinuinge
of
the
same
,
declareth
,
that
you
care
not
what
you
do
,
be
it
neuer
so
wicked
&
contrary
to
God
,
so
that
you
maye
auoyde
the
displeasure
of
the
magistrate
and
supreme
eyuill
gouernour
.
Wherby
it
appereth
manifestlie
that
you
regarde
more
the
displeasure
of
man
then
the
displeasure
of
God
.
Doeth
nor
your
lordships
consider
that
God
saith
by
the
prophere
:
Psal.
5.
The
lorde
shall
breake
the
bones
of
them
that
do
studie
to
please

?
Halas
