yuell spoken of And for as muche as in our lyfe we serue the deuyll and Christe in oure wordes we shall hynder more with oure lyfe then we shal profyte wyth oure wordes It is the parte of an Hypocryte to carye in hys hande the Testament goodly beset with golde and gylted and to dispute and reasone of the worde of God in euerye feaste or bākette and yet in the meane tyme to lyue as one voyed of all mercye impacient ignoraunte of charitye vnmyndefull of modestye and paste all shame The eternall wysedome loueth none suche preachers notwithstandynge that it suffereth them But we muste see that we honoure and reuerence god in hys miracles and wonders that he wrought illumyne oure soules with hys helthsome doctryne and that we conceyuyng a sure hope in god through hys benefyte shewed do inwardely burne with the fyer of loue To conclude after that we beynge ryche of spiritual gyftes haue gayned one talent by an other and do possesse two talentes that is to saye lyfe and doctryne then muste we go forwarde merilye Eph. vi gyrdyng vp our loynes and pullyng on oure shoes to go forwarde in the Gospel of peace that we may also wynne the soule of oure brothers For thys is the wyll of god that vntyll suche tyme as Christ was gone into heauen secrete thynges shoulde be spoken secretely in the eares of our frendes but fence he is gone and the spirite comē deniynge him selfe to noman that

whylse they were yet on lyue in thys worlde but to the intent to profite theyr posteryte they occupyed theyr pennes that the spiritual traualle myght contynually beynge forth spirituall children All they therfore be without Christiā charitie and are infideles whiche do let preachynge and do forbyd that the christian people shoulde haue the new Testament the olde to reade there in theyr common tonge as thoughe our misteries were oracles and the christian writtynges contayned in the any thynge that loueth darkenesse No doubte we are muche bounde to thanke God for that he hath geuen the lyght of hys trueth vnto al nacyons in theyr owne tonges and lāguages And besydes that euery nacyon is ryche in hys owne language thys is also a syngular benifite that we haue hys worde purelye and vncorrupted in the greke tonge euen as the Apostles wrote it So that yf they translatours haue in any place sayled of the true meanynge We may by the firste copyes amende th● which thynge shal be so

excuse that we lacke cunninge or knowledge For yf the word of God be in our hertes we shall lacke neyther diligence nor wysedome Matth. xxv mar xiij Luc. xij and xix Let vs thynke that Christ hath not left vs money vnnumbred but numbred that is to saye a pounde of the which he wyl that nothynge be conueyed awaye nothynge altered or chaunged nor any thynge spent in idlenesse For he wyll requyre an accōpt and that onely were ynough to put awaye all slouthe if it were not all ready to far drouned in dulnesse For he sayeth vntyl I come that is to iudgement and suche kynde of iudgement that neyther the iudge shall be deceyued the sentence altered nor yet the gyltye And that more is he hath lefte the tyme vncertaine because we shoulde watche alwayes notwithstandyng that the tyme it selfe is but
