The popish Priest saith his Masse in memoriall of the Saints, both he and she. And those oftentimes do they hold for Saints, whose soules are burning in heil. Hee sayth his Masse also to find things which be lost, and that for mo∣ney. The Priest vseth the Masse for a plaister or drugge against all infirmities. And, which is more: hee sacri∣ficeth (saith he) Iesus Christ in his Masse, and presen∣teth him to God his father, for the sinnes of the quicke and the dead. Which Christ, did once vpon the crosse and none but he onely, could euer doe the same. Be∣cause (as Saith the Apostle Heb. 7. chap. vers. 26.) it be∣houed that the Priest which purged sinnes, should be ho∣ly, innocent, pure, separate from sinners, and made high∣er then the heauens, which needed not euery day to offer sacrifice, first for his owne sinnes, and then for the sinnes of the people. This Christ once perfourmed, offering vp himselfe for the sinnes of all men. Examine the liues of the popish priests, and how farre off they are from that puritie, which it behoueth the Priest to haue, that offered the expiatorie sacrifice, will appeare. Therefore the Masse is not the Supper of the Lord.
Two treatises the first, of the liues of the popes, and their doctrine. The second, of the masse: the one and the other collected of that, which the doctors, and ancient councels, and the sacred Scripture do teach. Also, a swarme of false miracles, wherewith Marie de la Visitacion, prioresse de la Annuntiada of Lisbon, deceiued very many: and how she was discouered, and condemned. The second edition in Spanish augmented by the author himselfe, M. Cyprian Valera, and translated into English by Iohn Golburne. 1600.
