truth both yong and ould went straight to the temple Straight to the temple went with Iesus seellyly ryding And yet on his poore asse with a princelyke glory triumphing Into the Church when hee came more lyke to a fayre or a market Than Salomons temple such chapmen hee quyekly remoued Ouerturnd theyr seates and tables iustly defaced His fathers orders and seruice rightly reuyued But to the prowd Pharisees to the scraping Scribes to the fatt Priests It was more then a plague then a death then a hell to behould this Therefore once yet againe themselus they gyn to be styrring For t'entrappe Iesus but loe whil'st this was a woorking In comes that cutthroate that thiese yet freshly remembring How th'Alablaster box of balme his greedy deuowring Clawes escaped afore and then to the company hellish And Sathans synagogue his murdring mynde he reuealed Hayle sacred Cayphas chiefe Priest and mighty Protector Of Iewish customes and Hebriews laudable orders Hayle Scribes and Pharisees that teach and preach the renowned Doctrine of Moses geue eare and mark what I tell you This wandryng vpstart vpocrite this Christus Iesus Man God I know not what doth abuse and dayly deceaue vs. Vs fooles his folowers and mee vnworthyly hating Chiefly of all others with slaundrous taunts he reuyleth And yet I could forget this abuse and iniury priuate But that by these meanes he begins t'aspyre to the scepter For what a sedition what a styrr doth hee make what an vproare And what a sort be before what a trayne coms dayly behynde hym His woonders woondring his doctrine vaynly beleeuing His wayes with fresh flowres and branches dayntyly dressing His delicate fine feete with balmes most costly anoynting His royall person with tytles princely saluting His foamyng palfray with rich roabes gayly bedecking Hosanna singing and each where freely triumphing Yf that I bring hym bound and soe cause all to be ended And people quyeted say on what shalbe my guerdon What shal I haue for I serue but a snudg and am but a begger Hereat Caiphas smylde and Iews all greatly reioyced And of theyr syluer they peeces thyrty apoynted For this vile butcher which causd that Lambe to be slaughtred These things dispatched those fathers ghostly departed Counsell's dissolued Iudas back slyly returned Christe with a curse by the way most fearful signe to the saythles That fruyteles figgtree causd euermore to be fruytles Christe rose from table most perfect signe of a meeke hart And wash this fryends feete teaching them for to be lowely Christe foretould his death most doubtles signe of a true God And did note to the rest that shameles desperat outcast But woe woe to the wretch but alas woe woe to the traytor Better he were not borne then borne to a damnable horror Christe tooke bread and wyne most sacred signes to the faythful And gaue thancks to the Lord and brake and gaue it among them Most cherefull sacrament most louly and lyuly remembrance Of Christ his body crost and blood shed freely for all men And now that Renegate that damned Apostata Iudas Coms to the Priest Caiphas and there his brybe he receaueth Brybe for blood Lambs blood Gods Lambe and bringeth a great rowte Of swearing cutters and souldiers duely prepared With lynckes and lanterns with swerds and staues for an onsett Marching all in aray in due and martial order As though some fyeld were to be fought or king to be conquer'd Whereas alas noeman was there with force to resist them But some feawe fishers and theyr poore mayster Iësus O valyant Iudas of a warlike company capten These be the synners plagues these these be rewards to the wicked That not a mouse can creepe not a leafe can shake not a wynde blowe But theyr sowls with syn theyr mynds with murder aboundyng Stil be a trembling stil be a quiu'ring stil be a quaking Quaking stil for dreede and feare of an hasty reuenging Afterclapp to be giu'n by the thundring Prince of Olympus Christe after supper gaue thancks rose vp fro the table Came to the mount Olyuete then these woords gracius vttred My saythfull folowers and fryends my dearly beloued And best companyons this night you shalbe molested And fore offended to behould some villanies offred For soe t'was written long since and truly reuealed That your fryendly shepherd must needs at last be remoued And his Sheepe scattred wandring for want of a sheepsman But faythfull folowers and fryends but dearly beloued And best companyons your mayster shalbe reuyued And by death kill death and ouer death be triumphing His faythfull folowers visyting his dearely beloued And best companyons and fryends in Galyly seeing Scarce had he sayd thusmuch but Peeter stowtly replyed Not soe sweete Master though euery man be amased liuery man fly back yet Peeter's fully resolued For noe loue of life noe feare of death to be startyng Great woords small woonders But Iesus gaue hym a watch-woord His weaknes knowing his rashnes meekly rebuking And sayd Poore Peeter pray and leaue off thy protesting This night quickly for all thy stowt and manly presuming Ere that a Cock crow twise thou shalt thrice flatly deny mee And now when that night that dreadfull night was aproaching Christe did watch hymselfe and wyld his friends to be watching Christe prayd thrice himselfe and wyld his friends to be praying Christe with fearefull pangs and dropps of blood was abounding Christe fell flat to the ground and wisht that cup to be passing Yet not his owne conceipt but Fathers will stil obeying Christe at length came back and found his friends to be sleeping Come let's goe quoth hee now its more than tyme to be styrring Loe here com's Iudas with a cursed kisse to betray mee Eu'n as hee spake these woords that martial army apeared Lynkes gaue light to the night and causd their swoords to be glistring And fore-man Iudas for a guyde went iollyly marching That vile vipers kisse for a signe and token apoynting Then with a brazen face past grace Christe Iesus he kissed And sayd Hayle Mayster to the which Christe mildly replyed Friend Wherefore comst thou But Peeter rashly reuenging Christs disgrace as he thought who first came first he requited And Malchus right eare from his head with a swoord hee diuided Whoso strikes with a swoord with a swoord must looke to be stricken And blood seekes for blood Stay Peeter learne to be lowly If that I meant to reuenge sayd Christe and make a resistance Could not I ten thousand Angells haue quickly procured Whose strength these forces might haue most easily daunted But then my Fathers edict shou'd not be obeyed And scriptures verifyde This spoken he strangely refixed Malchus his eare to his head O meeknes charity mildnes Of true God true man long suffring infinit endles This was enough t' haue causd brute beasts themselues to be tamed Ragged rocks to relent and harts of flynt to be yeelding This done Whom doe yee seeke quoth Christe To the which the renowmed Craking swashbuklers like
