menstrue and after her all the deuils put in theyr engendryng seede Than came the kinges of the yearth crepyng vnto her to whome after they had kyssed her blessed feete she retched her louesome cup. Of whiche they drunke and whan they had doen all the kynges medled with her with abhominable aduoutry But whā this act was finished came Pluto his ministers and whan they had caughte that whore Babilon that is the chiefe Byshop an horrible thing to be heard they drewe her into the butcherye and there played the butchers with her and than brought her to the table and sette her before the kinges to be eatē Which fed straight vpon the fleshe of the Romyshe whore and in a while after prouoked to vomite they spewed vp theyr Gobbettes of flcshe smellyng of that moste filthy wine Of whiche Gobbets a wonderfull matter put together I sawe the Byshop newe made agayne Whan this feast was doen and Dracolicus had geuen them warnyng all rose vp from the table Than was the Whore with her louers seruauntes led out of the Citie to a certayne ponde whole kyndeled with fyre of brinstone Genius gaue a signe that we shoulde folowe for the ende of the tragedie was nowe at hande When they were come thither the whore with her baudes flatterers louers and companies wer throwen headlong into the ponde there to be punished for euer This is the ende of the great Byshop Paul This is the porcion of his cup and of all other wicked folkes Genius my ghoste allowed not that we should returne into Dites Citie but ascendyng by a certayne narowe pathe warned me that at no hand I should stand still neyther loke backe warde That yf I dyd the faulte wer not in him though he perfourmed not his promise When I remembred what betyded Lottes wyfe because she obeyed not the ghoste what tyme they went from the burning of Sodome into the next mountaynes I obeyed and clymyng vp with him I loked no whither but both with iyes and steppes folowed onely my forgoer By that path we came to the way which leadeth into the heauens And behold there went before vs one of Plutoes seruauntes leadyng the seuen headed beast whiche Paule had ryd vpon on whose backe was set that byg and mightye cuppe in whiche all kynges had dronke full of the filthines of the whore Than asked I my gyde what this should be They are gyftes quod he which Pluto doth sende to the newe byshop Paules successout The fower foted beast is for him to ryde vpon the cup to get hym through the drynke therof the loue of prynces naciōs as other Popes haue doen. But I feare me lest that strength be not in the drynke which hath been here tofore whē mē knew none other drinke whā through the Popes meanes Christes cup was hid But now whan many begin to sauout the most swete whole some liquour of the Lord the fewer wil come to that whores cup.
