[ 272] Hypocrisie may passe for a time undiscovered▪

MAud, Mother to King Henry the second, being besieged in Winchester Castle, counterfeited her self to be dead,* 1.1 and so was carryed out in a Coffin, whereby she escaped: Another time being besieged at Oxford, Anno 1141. in a cold Winter with wearing whit pparel she got away in the snow undiscover'd: Thus some Hy∣pocrits by dissembling Mortification,* 1.2 that they are dead to the world, and by profes∣sing a snow-like purity in their conversations may pass away a while undiscovered,* 1.3 but time will come that their vizards shall be pulled off their faces; they may go for a while muffled up in their cloaks of pretended sanctity and zeal for the publique good,* 1.4 but all will be revealed at the last, if not here, hereafter.
