Of Comforting and visiting the sicke.

SEing that men do neuer lie open to more greeuous tem∣ptations, then when they are exercised with infirmities, or else are sicke and brought low with diseases, it behooueth the Pastours of the Churches, to be neuer more vigilant and carefull for the safetie of the flock, then in such diseases and infirmities. Therefore let them visite the sicke betimes, and let them be quicklie sent for of the sicke, if the matter shal so require. Let them comforte and confirme them in the true faith. Finally, let them strengthen them against the daunge∣rous suggestions of satan: In like manner let them praie with the sicke person at home in his house, and if neede be, let them make praiers for the sicke, in the publike meeting. And let them be carefull, that they may haue a more happie passage out of this life. As for popish visiting with the ex∣treame vnction, we haue said before, that we do not like of it, because it hath manie absurde things in it, and such as be not approoued by the Canonicall scriptures.
