The fourth SECTION.

The Description of the Catholicke Scuruy, in∣gendred by the Mystery of Iniquity, the Glo∣rious manifestation whereof had beene restray∣ned and sealed vp by the Angell, vntill 1000. yeares were expired, for the hardnesse of our Fore-fathers hearts.

NOt onely these doe vs disease, But onely Ills disturbe our ease. Tis found, that most Diseases tend, And to the Scuruy power lend, To torture Slugs, who nastily Were Cloath'd, or fed too greedily. Great Fends likewise, and Men Soule-sicke, Hell's Scuruy make a Catholicke, With Murthers, Lyes, Hypocrisies, Idolatries, and Blasphemies. As doth the former Scuruy beate, For want of Sunne and Motions heate, Vpon the Spleene, the Breath, and Skinne: So doth that old and Scuruy sinne With Purple spots go on to stayne Both Soule and Body, all for Gaine.

Mens want of Faith, and Scriptures Light, Enwrappes them in blind Aegypts night. Fond quirkes and quillers, Schooles inuentions, Doe hinder them to vse preuentions. But how comes this grosse Sinne to passe In those, who say Christs Blood doth wash, And hea••••al Plagues, and cancred Lust, By vertue of his Merites iust? When Men distrust the safest way, They cannot chse but goe astray. When Fabells Tower, and Asaes Hopes; When 〈◊〉〈◊〉 Gd, and Balish Popes; When Mans pos••••ons, rring Braine, They trust, as if Christ dy'd in vaine; When they refuse Gods tendred Motions, And wil carouse false Prophets Potions; Their oules so giutted salla reeling, Like drunen Tosse-pots without feeling. Then Iudgement, Wid, and Memory Depriu'd of Faiths strong Armoy, In blacke Despaire conclude their wayes, And neuer after see good dayes. Or they Presume (a Plague as bad) With too much Learning running mad. These two Extreames, like scorching Sunne, And hideous darknesse, wee must shun. The middle Course with Modesty, Yeeldes some content to Maiesty.

To which adde Faith: then Grace will couer Our brittle Knowledge, and discouer What vengeance more hangs on the Scuruy, Which Christendome turnes topsie turuy With blood, Fraud, Dreames, Ambition, feares, Regardlesse of poore Christians teares: Till He, that Rockes with Thunder teares, He, that controules the Wandring Spheares, Doe by his Light expelling Night Remooue the Beame, that dimmes our sight; And tame the Force of this great Fury, Which wilfully true Faith would bury. The Diuells loose from Bbilon, And waches whom to worke vpon. Old Heresies hee bringeth in: So faire without, and foule within, Some Starres beginne to loose their Light, Which on the Saints shin'd lately bright; And tis most true, some States will rue, If the last Earthquake doe ensue. Proud Gog, and Magogs Horne with eyes, Haue pitcht their Tents to Tyrannize, And Gyant like doe threaten those, Who Lyes and false-hood shall oppose: Those, who serue GOD in Unity, And in the Persons Trinity, They persecute with Fire and Sword, And vow to raze his Written Word,

(Which now hath flourisht many yeares, In spight of Balaam, and his Peeres.) And make vs bow to Romes Mark' Rabble, Their Mazzims God, and Masses Bable. A thousand Yeares by Treachery, And iuggling Trickes, this Mistery Shut vp and seal'd, gul'd faithlesse slaues, But now against Gods Church it aues, That Church, which then for few assign'd, To Deserts fled for feare confin'd, And acts the last red Dragons part, With open Force and cunning Arte, Let vs (say they) with all our Might, Their consciences at length affright, If our false Fire and wonders faile, Our three Frog-spirits shal preuaile, Whom Caphas curs'd with Booke and Bell, Wee'le sacrifice their Blood to Hell; But before this Desolation, We must bnd the strongest Nation. You heare the Plot, now to preuent These latter Plagues; watch and Repent: For if they bind the Valiant Men, What will become of weaklings then? When God remoues his Candlesticke, Hells darknesse more will make vs sicke.
