I tosse many thinges as I were of porte and hauour When I came home all that night long I could not sleepe a winke A booke therefore I tooke in hande my selfe something to ease Wherein I wrote of sundry ryte as my heart dooth iudge and thinke Aboute three yeares past when I Piers scripture might reade And render and r●porte to my wyfe and to my barnes It seemed then a goodly life a houshold then to keepe and feede Both with broth and bacon and breade of the Byble To tell forth Christes trade and trade of our christening Before we were called christen knew of Christe nothing Then was I sir then was I father then was I shepheard and all Then nothing fayled vnto my bidding neither in boure nor hall My wyfe for my wisdome did counte me hee head my childer their father My seruaunts their sire then all did obay me in the feare of the Lord More then for meade or hier this pleased the Lord. I dare recorde against the popish pries which clatter in the Kirke And cannot worke nothing that good is which had despight in heart That wee to Christe did start leauing their cumbred riddles And cried as their Fathers did before out out alas Therefore all the world followeth him and his Seeing vs of the lewde fee breake into heauen so violently Which they were sory for but of the herds they recked nothing Being occupied with other thinge as gentlemen and other For the fleshly fathers coulde boast that none of the promises Nor the Pharisies were founde faulty herein but onely the rascall sort That knew not the lawe lined sinfull and cursed therefore sayd they plaine Wee will haue it in againe from these poore knaues That are so wood trowe these harlots pardy that Christe wold with saue to die For such a prophane beggerly blood But comfort yee yee plough man Fisshers Tylers and cobblers Christe our king was a poore man as Zacharie before prophesied and hee him selfe saith that Foxes haue dennes birds of heauen neasts and mans sonne hath not where to lodge his head And hee blessed the poore men so they bee poore in spirite saieng that theirs is all readie the Kingdome of high Heauen and wo be vnto the riche for they haue their comforte in this world Christe saith againe in Marke his words sowen in rich mens hearts bringeth forth no fruite for the deceiptfulnes of riches and the businesse of this worlde cloggeth it and marketh it fruitelesse this knewe our Popish prellates full well when they finde that gentleman and busie occupied marchauntes are sober discreete and wise they will not rayle they will doo no skathe But I will tell you a newe tale goe to all yee riche of heapes With all your horned prellates Weepe and howie for the misteries that shall come vpon you If there be no other thing to lay in your way This I am suer yee cannot denay That yee haue lyued in delight pleasure you haue fed at your hearts liking As against the day of slaughter Yee haue condempned slaine the Iust and hee hath not resisted you Remember that terrible example of the riche man and poore Lazarus And I say againe to you poore caitiffes there is an other world beside this and we can patiently abide the Lords woorking there is no seede can bring great gaine but he be deed this wee see playne in our yearely sowing beside this we patiently abide vii monethes long tho wee suffer at home much hunger and wrong our whete or wee can gather why should we not than Gods woorking ken in sauing vs with them yea heare me deere brethren hogge-herds sheepeheads and all your sorte despised hath not God chosen the poore of this world to be riche in faith and heires of the kingdome which he promised to all them of whom he was loued that how can your byshops hate then thus poore and be the Apostles successors for they did comfort the poore all with these like words as they can fall against the riche in towers are they not the riche that exerciseth their tiranny vpon you and they haile you to their iudgment seates the same are they that speake euill of that good name which is named vpon you Paule calleth them Idolators only bicause they gape so much vpon goods And Christ him selfe saith no man can serue two maisters both God riches And againe it is hard for a riche man to enter into heauen as a Camill to goe through a needells eye yet dooth the priestes flatter them say that they onely may haue Gods word which is called his kingdome that they altogether may play the part of cut my curre that keepeth my Fother safe which neither will eate any Haie himselfe nor suffer any cattell that breaketh loose to eate any thing thereat thus doo they all conspire against the Lord and his Christe The bishoppes giueth bribes to holde Christe downe And vp start the knights of the sepulcar This sheweth that they haue the faith of Christe in vaine opinion Or els would they iudge Christes flocke a right without regarde of person Alas doo yee not see that Christe will not be kept in graue How longe doo you striue against the streame and spurne against the pricke What haue you woon this xxx yeeres by putting to silence The word of God and the maintayners thereof It springeth and spreadeth by persecution like the Palme tree that cannot bee ouercomne with burden all though you treade it vnder your feete and iudge it vnworthely at length it shall beate downe you and condempne you both great and small to endles dampnation lay vpon your necke al the innocent blood that hath ben spilt since Stephen the first Martyr to this day through your default all other that shall follow after to the worlds end Moyses by the mouth of God commaunded thus that we take heede least that we loose our soule forgetting the woonderous works that he hath wrought in the daies heretofore but that we shall publish thē forth still to our children posteritie for euer Againe he saith Note Deutro Chapt. the wordes that I doo cōmaunde this day shal be vpon thy heart thou shalt reherse them vnto thy children and speake of them when thou sittest in thy house when thou walkest by the way when thou goest to sleepe when thou risest again then shalt thou binde them as a signe about thy hand and they shal be a remembrance betwixt thine eies thou shalt write them vpon the poastes of thy house and in thy gates that thy GOD bee at no time forgotten for all they which counteth it not good to knowe God be they priests be they princes God giueth them vp into a reprobate minde to doo the things that are not comly filled with all vnrightiousnes fornication craft couetousnes c. But our priests are wiser than Moyses then Christe Note Phillip Chapt. or his Apostles for they were glad when by any maner of meanes the gospell was published were it by contention or other waies saith Paule Philip. and where as Iohn was carnall Note marke and saith we haue found a man casting out diuells in thy name but wee haue forbidden him bicause he followeth not vs and of that groūd perchance forbid vs to name Christ in his worde Christe him selfe answereth plaine forbid him not for no man that worketh any thing in my name can straight speake euill of me but our prelats cleane contrarie to hinder Gods woord will not sticke to die bicause it vttereth their hypocrisie and destroyeth their papistrie the Antichristian Idolatry Heare yee therefore O yee Princes and vnderstand yee that iudge the earth heare I saie feare for you being officers of his kingdome haue not executed true iudgement now of late you haue not kept the law of rightiousnes nor called after the will of God horrible that right soone therefore shall he appeere vnto you for an hard iudgement shall they haue that beare rule Mercie is graunted vnto the poore but they that be in auctoritie shal be sore punished wherefore set your
