The repressor of over much blaming of the clergy.

The ve. principal conclusioun is this: Holi Scripture bothe in the Oold Testament and in the Newe al|lowith [allowith and approueth, MS. (first hand).] to haue and vse ymagis as rememoratijf signes in the maner now laste bifore seid. That this conclusioun is trewe, it is open ynouȝ bi it what is bifore argued in the ije. chapiter in the iij. firste principal argumentis to the first principal conclusioun. Wherfore this ve. principal conclusioun is to be holde for trewe.

Also, Matheu xxvje. capitulum., Crist allowid and approued the deede of Marie Magdalen, in that that sche vsid the oynement as a seable and a smelleable rememo|ratijf signe, and in that that sche vsid the dede [the dede is interlineated by an early but later hand.] of anoynting [an oynting, MS.] as a seable rememoratijf signe. Forwhi he seide: What ben ȝe greuose to this womman? Sche hath wrouȝt a good werk into me. Where euer this gospel schal be prechid in al the world, it schal be seid that sche dide it into mynde of him. [This blundering translation of "dicetur et quod hæc fecit in memo|riam ejus," (), Vulg., occurs in both forms of Wiclif's version, from which this citation is mostly taken.] And so it is open that Crist allowid and approued the vce of the seid oynement, in that that it was vsid as a seable or smelleable rememoratijf signe. And sithen this is approued of Crist, certis [certis is added by a later hand.] bi lijk skile othere seable signes as ymagis, and othere smelleable signes as encensis, ben ther yn and ther bi allowid and approued of Crist. And so bi Holi Scripture of the Newe Testament the vce of sensible rememoratijf signes ben allowid. [allowid and approved, MS. (first hand).]

Also an [in other, MS. (first hand).] other vnsoilable proof for this ve. principal conclusioun is sett bifore in the firste parti of this
