Do you thincke to mocke the worlde so / that when you haue so vniustly / & so hainously accused / you may wipe your mouth / and say (as you did before) that you will not accuse any? and as now / that you will leaue the application? Is not this to accuse / to say / that the authors of the Admonition doe almost plainly professe Anabaptisme? is not thys to apply / to say that they agree wyth the A∣nabaptists in all the fornamed practises and qualities? You would faine strike vs / but you would do it in the night / when no man should see you / and yet if you haue to do against Anabaptists / you neede not feare to proclaime your warre a∣gainst them. You haue a glorious cause / you shall haue a certaine victorye. I dare promisse you / that you shall haue all the estates and orders of this realme / to clappe their handes / and sing your epinicia, and triumphant songs. But that you would conuey your sting so priuely and hissingly / as the Adder doth / it cari∣eth with it a suspition of an euill conscience / and of a worse cause / then you make the world beleeue you haue.
