The Catholikes doo not burden you with ought, wherein by their owne iudgementes they condemne themselues, as ye sclaunder them not onely here, but oftentimes in your Booke. For if they iudged other∣wise. they would not wittingly do against their iudgemente. That is the special propertie of an He∣retike, whom S. Paule hiddeth al men to a voide, knowinge that he that is suche, is peruerted,* 1.1 and seemeth euen condemned by his owne iudgement.
They shewe bothe your blasphemous Heresies, and your wicked actes. Luther, ye knowe. pow∣red out his Heresies and villanies. &c. Your robbinge of Churches, persecutinge of men for stan∣dinge s••edfastly in the faithe of the Holy forefathers, your incestuous mariages of Monkes, Friers, and Nonnes, your breache of solemne vowes for fleashly pleasure, your prophaninge and abandoninge of Holy Sacramentes, your contempt of auncient and godly ordinaunces and discipline of the Churche, and suche other thinges of like estimation.
For in deede the catholikes doo persecute you, (if suche deserued entreatinge of euill persons maye be called persecution) and al good folk besides, wee gr••••te, and shal so doe, so longe as they love the Truthe, and keepe them in the vnitie of the Churche. Yet with no other minde doo they persecu••e you,* 1.2 then Sara did Agar: then Christ the Iewes, whom he whipt out of the Temple: then ••eter did S••nom Magus.
