Of Simon Magus.
Simon Magus, was esteemed and accounted in the City of Rome for a God, and honoured as a God, with a Picture between two Bridges upon the River Tibris, having this Roman Su∣perscription, Simoni Deo Sancto; to Simon the holy God; and in manner all the Samaritans,* 1.1 and certain also of other Nations did worship him, acknowledging him for the chief God; he is said to have been the first Author of Heresie; they that have followed his Heresie, have much overflowed in Filthiness, and Obscenity (i. e. silthy Talk) for it is said of them, that whatso∣ever may be imagined more foul than any Fil∣thiness, the same hath their damnable Heresie surpassed, and poor wretched Women they have deluded, with a heap of all kind of Evils.
