Vnworthy Communicants reproved. [ 599]

THe Hahassines,* 1.1 a Christian people in Prester Iohn's Country, after the recei∣ving of the Sacrament, think it not lawfull for them to spit that day, till the setting of the Sun: It is no better then Superstition in them, but yet their Supersti∣tion will rise up against the monstrous profaneness of many amongst us.* 1.2 They hold it unlawfull to spit that day, And shall some out of drunkenness spue that day, drown him in the Tavern, whom they received in the Temple? They will not spit that day; And shall some endure the Devils drivell to fall from their mouths that day, in ungodly oaths, and unsavory rotten Communication? They will not spit that day, And shall some in that day spit in Gods face, as common prophane swea∣rers do, &c?
