Barnard the Monke liued in great estimation with Kings and Princes euen with the Kinges of this Land For he was a man of great fame both for his godly life and learning This S. Barnard in his bookes written to Pope Eugenius doth rehearse and carpe so many and such crimes both of the Bishops and Citizens of Rome how many and such as none of the old prophets is read to haue obiected to the Babilonians which to 〈◊〉 tediousnes here I omit to rehearse who so is 〈◊〉 to seée his words the books be extant at this time though written 400 year past more Likewise Petrus Iohannes Pyranensis about 1330 did openly in schole teach that as the Pope was Antichrist So no other Church but the Romish to be vnderstood by the name of the whore of Babylon Also Wickliefe of England and Iohn Hus and Hierome of Bohemia taught affirmed the same doctrine of the Pope and of Rome the first of these thrée his bones burned 18 yéeres after he had bene dead the other two brent aliue yet consenting in opinion to all the godly Fathers and Doctors in these points that be aboue rehearsed Now it hath bene sufficiently spoken with the approoued testimo-of euery age euen from the Apostles time and the opinion and sentence of the best learned cited thereto touching the place that Rome is signified by Babilon Now let vs return againe to the ruler of this Babylon and his tragicall actions who putteth on him the vizard of piety and is altogether vnder his Maske impiety it selfe This impudent and shameles man of Rome yea rather beast he may be called which doth the iniuries afore rehersed to our Lord Christ what presumeth not he to aduenture vpon daily among his inferiors for equals hee will haue none and both Emperor and King professing Christ within Europe he hath made subiect vnto him and ready at ●all to do his will and command●ment He maketh War himselfe he prouoketh one prince with fire sword to assault another he sheddeth innocent blood in persecuting those that dare or wil open their mouth against him Hée maintaineth Subiects so rebell against their Soueraigne Lords kings he is the firebrand to set an outrage of burning in al parts of Christendome he is a deadlie poison which hath infected y ● church of God with notorious dregs Did not the Pope stir prouoke Sigismond the Emperor and the noble Princes of Germany with force of armes to inuade the realm of Bohemia Upon what ground or occation Truly because Iohn Hus and Ierome of Prage had by preaching of the word of God began to reueale the son of perdition in the same country of Bohemia The Pope therfore féeling himselfe touched to the quicke endeuoured as much as in him did lie to destroy and extirpate all the Bohemians First Hus Ierom were cruelly burned and yet the desire of the people to the knowledge of true religion thereby not quenched but inflamed and kindled the more What ensued of this with huge power and most puissant 〈◊〉 the Bohemians were inuaded two yeares together And both the times with wonderful courage prowes of the Bohemians the assault makers were repulsed and put back to shameful flight by the miraculous power mighty hand of God who fought for them did set thē at rest peace in despite of the Bishop of Rome his Cardinals cleargie I omit here for breuities cause to inferre manie examples how the Popes frō age to age moouing war haue procured by their Legates and messengers one Prince to wage battel on his next brother and Prince adioining and when the Armies were readie to encounter and méete then would he colourably as though no fault were in hym Friers and other messengers were despatched betweene perswading peace and reconcilement The Chronicles in euerie Realme can sufficientlie testifie the same And therfore I remit those that be desirous to know further herein to the said Chronicles This I say and affirme boldlie that it was the Pope that did animate and set on Robert Earle of Flanders against Henry the fourth Empero●r It was he the Pope that maintained the warres with ten thousand Italians and gaue money to pay them wages on the behalfe of the Emperor Charles the fift against the Duke of Saxony and the noble Pée●es of Germany because the said Pope would haue had the light of the Gospell darkened which at that time had sprong vppe from the first preaching of Luther séeking to bring ignorance in place againe though it wer with the shedding of Christian blood and vtter vndooing and spoile of many both men women and children It is he the Pope that to his great ignominy and shame for euer cherished a ranke Traitor named Stukeley a man of euill life and conuersation and mainteyned him against his Soueraigne Ladie and Quéene with money men Shippes and munition to enter Ireland God confoundeth the deuises and purposes of the wicked and maketh them frustrate contrary to their expectation What followed Stukeley when he had sailed from Italie to the Bay of Portugale and there hearing that the King Sebastian was going ouer into Barbary with all royall preparation of warre offered his seruice to the said King not for any zeale or good will but vpon a subtill pretence that Warres there ended hee woulde borrowe a summe of money of the King the better afterwards to goe through with his enterprises in Ireland In the battell in Barbarie the King of Portugall the blacke King with others and this Stukley also was slaine This you may sée that God sent a curst Cow short hornes and Ireland was deliuered and England also from a most cruell enemie and Traytor though he died a fairer death then he should haue done or had deserued yet such was the malice of the Pope this enterprise began by Stukley was afterward prosecuted by the sayd Antechrist of Rome who first sent Buls full all impiety as it were with a bayt to allure the
