As for the Aue Maria, who can thinke that I would deny it▪ I sayd it was an heauenly greting or saluting of our blessed Lady,* 1.1 wherein the Aungell Gabriell sent from the Father of heauen, did annunciate and shewe vnto her the good will of God towardes her, what he would with her and to what he had chosen her But I sayd, it was not properly a prayer, as the Pater noster,* 1.2 whyche our Sauior Christ himselfe made for a proper prayer, and bade vs say it for a Prayer, not adding that we shoulde say 10. or 20. Aue Maries, withall: and I denyed not but that we may well saye the Aue Maria elso, but not so that we shall thinke that the Pater no∣ster is not good, a whole and a perfit prayer, nor can not be well sayd without Aue Maria: so that I did not speake agaynst wel say∣ing of it, but agaynst superstitious saying of it, and of the Pater noster to: and yet I put a difference betwixte that, & that whiche Christ made to be sayd for a prayer. &c.
