The displaying of the Popish masse vvherein thou shalt see, what a wicked idoll the masse is, and what great difference there is between the Lords Supper and the Popes Masse: againe, what Popes brought in every part of the masse, and counted it together in such monstrous sort, as it is now used in the Popes kingdome. Written by Thomas Becon; and published in the dayes of Queene Mary.
Becon, Thomas, 1512-1567.

R. P. D. D. IOANNES PARKHURSTUS Episcopus Noruvicensis ad Thomam Baeconum.
Vidi & perlegi doctos Baecone libellos,
Quo tua nonpridem sancta Minerva de∣dito
Dispercam siquid legi unquam sanctius, aut si
Quid potuit populo tradier ut liu•.
Auspice perge Deo tales vulgare libellos,
Variloquax sed nec lingua timenda tibi est.
Sic Christum possis avido iaculare popello,
Sic possis nomen condecorare tuum.
