no manner of worldly respect, or commoditie. And would to Christe he so behaued him selfe, that this falling away needed not: But so the case stoode, that onlesse we leafte him, wee coulde not come to Christe. Neither wil he nowe make any other league with vs, then sutche a one,* 1.1 as Nahas the Kinge of the Ammonites woulde haue made in times paste with them of the Cittie of Iabes, whiche was, to put out the Right Eie of eche one of the Inhabitantes. Euen so wil the Pope plucke from vs the Holy Scripture, the Gospel of our Saluation, and al the Confidence, whiche wee haue in Christe Iesu. And vpon other condition can he not agree vpon peace with vs.
M. Hardinge.
Ye are not fallen from the Bishop of Rome onely, whiche were a damnable schisme, but ye are fallen from Christes Churche. Your comparison of the Pope with kinge Nahas is not very agreable. But sirs, ye speake more maliciously, then credibly. Be ye good Christen men, and conforme your selues to the Catholique Faithe, (and denie Christe, and his Gospel: For, this also yee shoulde haue added) and I warrant you, the Pope wil not plucke from you, neither the Scriptures, nor your confidence in Christe Iesu, no more then he dooth from vs.
