the fishermans eies marres his aime and escapeth the daunger Which sithens it is so the greater the care ought to be that there be such godly wisedome and cunning in hunting them such toiles such nets as are fit for such seruice that there be such ministers as are able to handle the sword of gods word with both haÌ„ds that is to say be able to confirme the established Great need of good Foxe-hunters to reclaime the back-sliders to confute the aduersarie and if the will of God be to transforme the Foxes into sheepe such magistrates as haue a zeale to fence and hedge in the vineyard of the Lord of hostes from the subtill inuasions and vnderminings of these noysome vermine such toyles as are able to hold both the great and little Foxes For where blinde guides are placed in the watch towre and the basest liues are in the highest roomes there Foxes indaunger the flocke and many times finde more fauour then stands with the preseruation of the sheepe or safe continuing state of the best affected subiectes Pursiuants Parators In this place fit occasion is offered to speake neither may I passe it ouer with silence of a couple of terriers appointed for the hunting and vnkenelling of these Foxes whose true and hot hunting of them as it is rightly to be commended where it is to be found so the contrary doth breed great corruption in the Church and is much to be lameÌ„ted For the better redressing of these deformities which are too manifest bringing of these terriers into good huÌ„ting it would be carefullie respected of them that haue power to reforme it that they buy not their places for this is an approued truth that they will sell deare in the retaile which they bought in the grosse that is will sucke profit out of the vilest things cut mens garments off by the skirts for desire of gain hereby haue rushed horrible incoÌ„ueniences both into church coÌ„monwealth Againe the Foxe hath many wiles wherby to make these Foxe-hounds at a fault or to hunt counter especially he hath a mixture made of cogworth broad way Vox populi penimate together with a few ratle flowers called goold maries or mary-goolds which being steeped in a little diuels milke cast into their eies makes them starke blind stops their sents hence it commeth to passe that popery beareth such swindge because papists can pay wel that adultery fornication scape without punishment because wantons haue money I say no more let this be a watch-word to them whom it especially concerneth CHAPTER 8. The principall reasons why God suffereth home-bred enemies to be in the bosome of his Church fit to be considered of such as are not throughly perswaded in this point IF the Christian Church be impugned by open enemies as Iewes Turkes Tartarians and such as haue opeÌ„ly renounced the person of the great sonne of God and are cut off as rotten members men not greatly regard it But when such as are bred and nourished in the bosome of the Church seeke to vndermine and supplant it those household conflicts home-bred battailes are they which trouble many in these daies Household conflictes trouble many weake Christians O say they here is so much arguing and disputing such diuisions and diuersities of opinions that a man knowes not which way to turne himselfe To helpe such as without any good cause are thus put to a gaze They must first vnderstand that it is the will of God that his Church shall not be free from these inward offences and secondarily know the principall reasons why he will haue it so Although our God as he is the God of order and not of confusion commendeth and deliuereth vnto vs his discipline yet notwithstanding he suffereth the hypocrites for a time to haue their being amongst the faithfull vntill the full restoring and reforming of his kingdome in the last day The Church shall not be free from offences Math. 13. Which thing is taught by that of our Lord Iesus Christ where he resembleth the kingdome of heauen to a net cast into the sea and gathering all kind of fishes c. to a field wherin whilest the good husbandman soweth his wheat the enuious came and scattered his teares The Apostles also haue foretold the same that the Church of God shall be pestered with pestilent enemies and that they shall come with an efficacy of errour This know saith saint Paul that in the latter daies some shall depart from the faith 1. Tim. 4.1.2.3 and shall giue heed vnto spirits of error and doctrines of deuils which speake lies through hypocrisie and haue their consciences burned off with a hot yron c. But there were false prophets saith Saint Peter 2. Pet. 2.1.2.3 also among the people euen as there shall bee false teachers among you Which priuily shall bring in damnable heresies euen denying the Lord that hath bought them and bring vpon themselues swift damnation The mysterie of iniquitie began to worke in the Apostles time 1. Iohn 4.1.2 Thus the misterie of iniquitie began to worke in the Apostles times as appeareth in Col. 2. Galath 1. Therefore Saint Iohn exhorteth not to beleeue euerie spirit but trie the spirits whether they are of God for many false Prophets are gone out into the world And why should this trouble you so much Doe you not see that the cockle the corn growe both in one field the lillie and the thorne both on one ground the blossome and the blast both on one tree the flowre and the weed both in one garden the sheepe and the goates doe feed both in one pasture know you not that in one arke were beasts cleane and vncleane and that the Apostle saith that in one house be vessels of honour and vessels of dishonour then wonder not to see the good and the bad mingled together but consider the reasons giue God the glorie and take heed to thy faith There be two principall reasons why the Lord suffereth these houshold enemies to be in the midst of his vineyard the first is for the probation and trial of his seruants whether they be vnfainedly coupled vnto him in the spirituall bond of faith and of loue Deut. 13. If there arise amongst you saith Moses a Prophet or c. Thou shalt not harkeÌ„ vnto the words of that Prophet or vnto that dreamer of dreams For the Lord your God proueth you to know whether you loue the Lord your God with al your heart with all your soule And indeed it is necassarie that we be kept in continual exercise of faith and praier of patience and constancie and therefore is it said that the Lord would not cast out before his people of Israel any of the natioÌ„s which Iosua left when he died that through them he might proue Israell whether they would keepe his waies to walke therein or no And to this effect Saint Paul

vse him with such cruell courtesie as followeth that whereas he vsed these words to other memento homo quod cinises in cinerem reuerteris that is remember man that thou art ashes and into ashes thou shalt returne he casting ashes into his face thundred out this terrible threatning memento homo quod Gibellinus es cum Gibellinis in terram reuerteris that is remember fellow that thou art a Gibelline and with the Gibellines thou shalt to the pot Deus bone tantaene animis caelestibus irae is it euen so sirs can Pope holie harts harbour such cruell hate then Lord deliuer vs from the crueltie of two-legged Foxes If you reade Iohn CarioÌ„ in his Chronicle and other writers you shall finde how louingly Pope Alexander the third vsed the Emperour Fredericke Barbarossa Alexender 3. his crueltie against the Emperour Fredericke Barbarossa who after he had anathematized him with the horrible curse of Simei and thundred his ratling excommunication against him tooke him in the end within the towne of Venice trode vpon his necke euen with his feete who for the establishing of his authoritie did openly pronounce before the people this saying in the Psalme Super aspidem basiliscum equitabis calcabis leonem draconem that is thou shalt ride vpon the Aspe and the Basiliske the Lion and the Dragon shalt thou treade vpon Likewise was Franciscus Dandalus Duke of Venice excommunicated and banished by Pope Clement the fift Clement 5. his crueltie against Franciscus Dandalus duke of Venice and enioyned to a certaine pennance which was that he should goe â—long the Popes pallace vpon his knees with a coller about his necke â—ike a dogge Who would thinke they â—ould confirme this rough crueltie by â—laine scripture but yet they can after â—he exposition of the Church of Rome â—or wot you what is written in the â—ight psalme thou hast put all things â—nder his feete sheepe and oxen A prettie Romish commentarie yea â—ll the beasts of the field that is Chriâ—tians Iewes Turkes and Tartarians â—he foules of the aire that is the soules â—nd Saints departed and the fishes in â—he sea that is the soules that are in purgatorie And this is it which Cardinall Poole being the Popes lieutenant at the councell of Trent did fortifie by the words of Christ that he would make Peter a fisher of men which after the sence of the Church of Rome is to be vnderstood thus that he would driue all Emperours Princes and Potentates into the Popes net to broyle theÌ„ or frie them euen as his holines should thinke best for his owne diet The Lord deliuer England from such fishing least after fishing come frying and the Foxes bring faggots But what should I speake of forraine Princes how lycenciously presumptuously hath he dared to controll the mightie Princes of England infringing their liberties and incroaching vpon their prerogatiues wherin if he were at any time withstood he straightway cast about to depose them As King Iohn was most miserablie vexed by Innocent the third King Iohn vexed by Innocent third and forced at last to resignethe crown with al his title of soueraignetie both in England and Ireland Henrie 2. suspended from his crowne As Henry the second was suspended from his crowne and for the space of foure dayes went barefoote to Thomas Beckets Tombe dieng the rough stones with his bloud What a solemne oration made Cardinall Poole being sent by the Pope to Charles the Emperour setting forward against the Turke whose purpose was to perswade the Emperour to turne his prepared power from inuading the Turke and to bend it against King Henrie the eight worse then any Turke as he said What blustering stormes of rebellion hath that late councell of Trent blowne vp in christendome that cannot yet be appeased Councell of Trent of the bellows of rebellion And all because the olde Foxe â—ath perswaded his young cubbes that â—hey may lawfully deuoure the lambs â—hat is the Pope hath powred an opiâ—ion into the papists that if he dispence with them The harmonie of Popish doctrines and dealings they may lawfully breake â—romise And heerein their doctrines â—nd dealings iarre not one iot for what â—oe they teach that the Pope hath the â—isposition of the crownes of christian â—rinces that he hath the right of deâ—iding to whom any kingdome belongâ—th that he hath lawfull powre to giue kingdomes to such as can conquer and get them that hee hath authoritie to â—ischarge Christian subiects from their â—utifull loyaltie to their lawfull prinâ—es that he hath power to giue leaue â—ea blessing reward immortalitie and â—ternall felicitie to such rakehels and â—ebels as attempt the tearing of the â—rowne from the Princes head And what is the practise of our papists they sauour rebellion they ioyne in conspiracie with strangers to conuey the crowne to a forrainer they agree with the enemie in faction to offer our cuntrey to a pray I cannot more fittly compare them then to those kinde of Scorpions and little Serpents which Pliny and Aristotle mentioned to be in Mesopotamia which neuer hurt or harme strangers but deadly sting the naturall inhabitants nay of worse condition they are theÌ„ the serpents for they haue venome to hurt others but not themselues buâ— these to hurt their princes their nobleâ— and people are content to hazard their own states Farre more bewitched theiâ— that foolish fellow who was wel contented to bee depriued of one of his owne eyes so that conditionally he might depriue his companion of both It seemeth to me that he which framed the picture of Furie as followeth meant to describe these desperat dealings who is painted with a sword in his hand for his greedie desire of reuenge and desperatly rusheth vpon a Iaueline murdering himself whilest he seeketh the spoyle of another Countrimen degenerous if not so farre alienated from loyaltie you are vnworthie of the name of countrimen what drunkennes hath couered your spirits that you should wooe the Spaniard to worke

an olde saying that he blameth Neptune without cause who hauing once made shipwracke wil â—enture to the sea the second time you haue had triall of the Spanyards disposition euen in Queene Maries
