Sodome though your Pope made him Archbishop of Beneuentum Doth no● the rest proue your Religion an vncleane Religion and that you haue little cause to brag of your chastitie 65 By your Religion the Images of Saints are to be worshipped with Processions Gen● flextionibus inclinationibus 〈…〉 ficationibus deo sculationibus oblationibus luminarum accensibnibus perigrinatio by kneeling vnto them by bowing the body towards them by inconsing of them that is sacrificing vnto them as Lindwood expounds the word by kissing of them by offering gifts vnto them by setting vp candies before them by going in pilgrimage vnto them Now I would know why you should not be held Idolaters forthis seeing sacrificing to any thing but God onely hath beene alwayes reputed idolatrie and the burning of incense to any thing hath beene alwayes held sacrificing 66 I haue seene a prayer of yours which as the Rubricke saith was shewed vnto Saint Austin by reuelation of the holy Ghost and of which you giue out that who beareth it about them shall not perish in five nor water neither in battell nor iudgement nor shall die sudden death nor be poisoned with venome And I haue seene certaine verses which your Pope 〈◊〉 sent with three Agnus Deis to the Emperoue of Greece running thus Balsanius munds cura cum chrysmatis vnda Consiciunt Agnum quod muns douibimagnum Fonte velut musum per mystica sanctificatum Falgura de sursum depell●t ●●●●malign●m Peccaium frangit vt Christi sanguis ●angit● Pregnans seruatur final partia liberatur Dona defert dignis virtutem destruit 〈◊〉 Port●ses munde de flucti●u●●r●pit v● dae Balsam and pure water and chrysine licour cleere Make vp this precious Lamb I send thee here All lightning it dispels and each ill sprite Remedies sinne and makes the heart contrite Euen as the blood that Christ for vs did shed It helps the child bed paincs and giues good speed Vnto the birth great gifts it still doth win To all that weare it and that worthy bin It quels the rage of fire and cleanly bore It brings from shipwracks safely to the shore Now I desire to know not how your Pope can be excused from blasphemy in ascribing as much to his Lamb as to the Lambe of God for I know that passeth your skill but how your Church can be excused from sorcery 67 Some of your Painters picture Christ and Simon of Gyrene carying the Grosse of Christ ioyntly but as Iansenius proueth well they caried it seuerally Christ one part of the way and Simon another part of the way whereby appeares it was farre from a cart loade yet you tell vs of so many peeces of it in so many places as that you cannot denie but that at this day it would fraught a ship of three hundred Tnnue Now I desire to know how it being insensible of lesse then a cart loade is become a ship loade especially seeing for the first three hundred yeares after Christ no body discerned any growth of it yea no body regarded it 68 Some of your Crircifixes represent Christ nailed vpon the Grosse with three nailes some with foure of mo hoiles then foure we neither reade in your Lay-men books nor in your Clergy books yet there are a number of nailes shewed in diu●●● places which are saide to be of the nailes wh●● withall Christ wa● nailed vnto the Crosse Now ● desire to know how they being but foure at first are come to so many now especially considering both Russinus hist lib. 1. cap. 8. and Socrates hist lib. 1. cap. 13. and Theodoret hist lib. 1. cap. 18. testifie that Constantine made bridles of some of them and an helmet of the rest of them and that Gregory Turonensis who relates the matter a little differently affirmes Helena her selfe cast one of them into the sea to make it safely nauigable Did that which she cast into the sea spawn● thinke you that we haue such a frie of nailes 69 You keepe a solemne feast in honour of the Crosse whereon Christ died though Christ was most despightfully vsed thereon Now I desire to know why you keepe not rather a solemne feast in honour of the Asse whereon Christ rode into Ierusalem seeing he was royally vsed when he rid vpon the Asse 70 You teach that the Crosse of Christ is to be worshipped ratione contact us because it touched the bodie of Christ Vpon which ground would it not follow I pray you that if the woman who was cured of the blooddy issue Luk. 8. were liuing she must be worshipped and the multitude too who at the same time thrust him and trad vpon him Would it not follow that Iudas who kissed him and the other sonnes of Bebial who bufferted him and all the ground whereon he trod both in Egypt and in Iudea ought to be worshipped in like manner 71 I reade in your bookes that a Nothing can enter into heauen which is not purified to the point Nothing can stand in Gods sight that hath any blemish of su●ne any spot of corruption any remnant of infirmitte And I reade likewise that vpon this ground you maintain that many mens soules go to Purgatorie to be purified to the point that afterwards they may haue entrance into heauen Now seeing you confesse that mens bodies sin against God as well as their soules and that sinne hath wrought in the bodie great filth and feeblenesse I desire to know why you do not maintaine that mens bodies go to Purgatorie to fit them for heauen as well as mens soules Mee thinkes it should be as vnseemly to see a filthy a feeble a corrupt bodie as to see a sinfull soule in heauen 72 You tell vs that Purgatorie is onely for those soules which are not perfectly purged in this life and yet you tell vs that many mens soules whose sir sare forgiuen in this life go to Purg atorie Now I would know how these two tales can stand together For as sin defiles the soule so forgiuenesse purgeth it That soule whose lins are forgiuen is perfectly rurged And therefore if your Purgatorie be onely for such soules as are not perfectly purged in this life in seemes to me it cannot be for those soules whose sinnes are forgiuen in this life But if you meane to giue me full satisfaction herein you may not mock mee by distinguishing that in sinne two things are to be considered viz. Culpa pant the fault and the punishment of the fault labouring to make me beleeue that though the fault beremitted yet the punishment remaining there is matter enough for Purgatory to worke vpon For I would haue you know that I know well it is the fault of sinne and not the punishment of sinne which defiles the soule Omnis paena in quantum pa●na est iusta est a D●●● All punishment confidered as punishment is iust and from God And it
