A12492	A defence of the blessed masse, and the sacrifice therof prouynge that it is auayleable both for the quycke and the dead and that by Christes owne and his apostles ordynaunce, made [and] set forth by Rycharde Smyth doctour in diuinitie, and reader of ye kynges highnes lesson of diuinitie, in his maiesties vniuersitie of Oxforde. Wherin are dyuers doubtes opened, as it were by the waye, ouer and aboue the principall, and cheyfe matter.	Smith, Richard, 1500-1563.	1546 (1546)	STC 22820; ESTC S107328	113,500	390

only because the holy apostels taughte the churche that All catholyke churches do baptise infantes though that be not coÌ„maunded in scripture doctrine and it hath ben obserued through al churches of the worlde euer since therefore by that autoritie and reason they muste nedes runne into heresie that denye the masse prayers with other good deades to be auaileable for the deade because it is a tradition of the apostles to praye to geue almes and saie masses for them and it hath ben kepte accustomedly in all churches of Christe from that time to this tyme and shal be till the worldes ende as Damas saith because it is a truth of our lord whiche Sermone pro defunctis shal abide for euer as Dauyd the ê“phet saith Moreouer Damas telleth that one Palladius an old writer of histories writing of a holy maÌ„ called Macarius which had wrought manye greate miracles thus saith of him Quia faciebat ê“ consuetudine sua ê“ defuÌ„ctis pÌ„ces scireque desiderabat nuÌ„qê“ illis ê“desset et coÌ„solatio illis inde proueniret Deus amator animaruÌ„ uolens hoc suo seruo pluribus et certis argumeÌ„tis pate facere cranio ê™ exaruerat verbuÌ„ ueritatis inspirauit ê“rupit enim cranium in hec verba QuaÌ„do pro mortuis offers preces coÌ„solatiunculaÌ„ sentimus That is to wit WhaÌ„ that holy man Macariê° A myracle doone to shewe that praiers of the quycke do profytte the deade dyd after his custome pray for the dead and was desirous to knowe whether that he did any ê“fit to them or no whether they had any comforte thereof God the louer of soules wyllinge to disclose or declare this thinge by many certen reasoÌ„s makiÌ„g a profe to his seruaÌ„t dyd inspire the foremoost parte of a skull which was dried with the worde of truth For the foremoost parte of the skull brast out saieng these wordes Whan thou doest offer prayers for the deade we feele coÌ„forte in aduersite Lo here a great miracle to proue this matter as there are written in olde bokes many mo whiche I wyll passe ouer to be short and bring ones againe Damas contione de defunctis IdeÌ„ hrbet D Hugo Aetherianorum lib. de regressu animarum ab inferis saint Damascenes saienge which is this Nisi hoc in oculis dei misericordis rectum foret nunque occasionem dedisset habendae memoriae defunctorum in sacrificio illo incruento anniuersariorum quae nunc inconcussa certiora quam de quibus iudicandum sit apostolica catholicaque ecclesia ac populus domino collectus pietatique deditus absque omni contradictione custodit This is in oure speache Excepte to praie and to offer sacrifice at the masse for the soules departed shulde be in goddes mercifull sighte righte he wolde neuer haue giuen an occasion of a memorie to be had for the deade in that vnblouddye sacrifice nor of anniuersaries God gaue an occasion of the sacrifice of the masse to be offered and yeares mindes to be kept for the deade as s Damascene doth affirm retourninge euery yeare ones at one tyme Thus moche I haue said of the olde doctours iudgementes in this matter touching the sacrifice of the holy masse and the offerynge of it to god both for the quicke and the deade also vpoÌ„ the which doctrine they are al and whollye agreed and therefore no wise godly christen man or woman wyll rather beleue Martyn Luther Eucer Bullynger Melancton Iohn Frith Bale or any of that yll heare then all these auncient fathers of the whiche some were taughte and instructed by the apostles some by their disciples scolers therfore no maÌ„ that wise is or godly wil doubt but they did know the truth much better than any maÌ„ of a later time not lerning it of theÌ„ and their bokes All the doctours of christes church do affirme that the masse is a sacrifice auaileable both to the quicke and the dead Luther Ihon Frith with a rablement of like rascalles denie it whether party wilt thou good reader beleue al these holy fathers or these leude vnlerned later writers very natural reasoÌ„ wyt yf nothing els shuld persuade that rather to beleue these auÌ„cieÌ„tes thaÌ„ these other which now write like to theÌ„ nether in yeres nor lerning Valeriê° Maximus An hystory of Valeriê° Maximus sheweth that the Romanes dyd in a matter risen betwene two men of the which the one was of muche honestie and fidelitie the other of very litle vertue credeÌ„ce gyue seÌ„tence vpon the honest maÌ„s part for his truthe and honesties sake when his aduersary laide against hym a certaine cryme The story is this CuÌ„ Marcus aemelius Scaurus vir clarissimus ac exploratae probitatis a vario SuccroneÌ„si uiro paruÌ„ syncero apud populuÌ„ accusaretur atque accusator long a oratioÌ„e perorasset ille maximo coÌ„pendio vsus est eo ê™ sua populi consceÌ„tiaÌ„ fretus non voluit oratione coÌ„teÌ„dere Querites inquit Variê° SuccroneÌ„sis ait Aemiliê° Scaurê° negat Vtri

knowen was accused to the people of Varius SuccroneÌ„sis a maÌ„ of lyttle purenes or symplycytie and the accusar had reasoned to an ende with a longe oration Marke Aemile vsed a very shorte fourme for because he trusted vppon hys owne coÌ„science the peoples also he wolde not striue with reasonynge but saide onely for his defence againste his aduersarie O Romaines Varius SuccroneÌ„sis affirmeth that I am gylty in this faulte Aemelius Scaurus denyeth it To whiche of these two doo you iudge credence shuld be giueÌ„ with the which wordes he ceassed or sette at rest the action falsely entred against him the people mouing their handes or feete for ioy Lo good reader amonge the Romaines which then were infidels the famousenes and surely knoweÌ„ goodnes of the person was a sufficiente cause to geue sentence with a signe of ioye vpon the famous and good mannes syde saieng onely for his defeÌ„ce that he was falselye accused against his aduersary being yl pleading his actioÌ„ with many wordes The honourable and good Marke said to the people myne aduersarye saith that I am gyltye I saye naye whether thinke you ought to be beleued The people mouing their handes or feete for ioy the good maÌ„ Marke was discharged of that actioÌ„ thorough those his fewe wordes for his goodnes and fames sake So in this presente controuersie of the sacrifice of the masse saint Dionise saint Ignatius S. Anaclet saint Alexander saint Clemente s Cyprian with all other catholycke doctours of all ages do saye that the masse is a sacrifice appeasinge goddes wrath Martyn Luther Suynglius Oecolampius Bucers shoulde be praied for to our lorde The thirde councel holden at Carthago hath a lyke decre and other diuers whiche I wyll passe
