in deed Go thou and do th●● thou shalt liue But he in hope of better speed A new assault to Christ would giue Who is my neighbour then said he This thing I would faine learne of thee Then Iesus answering said so A certaine man went by the way That leadeth downe to Iericho Where among theeues he fell ●hat day Robbed and wounded there he was And left halfe dead so on the grasse By chance a Priest came by that way Which when he saw him passed by Likewise a Leuite where he lay Did looke on him and let him lye But a Samaritan by chaunce Came by and saw him in his traunce Which sight so mouing then his heart He tooke on him compassion Whereof before he did depart He made full declaration He powred in and also bound Both wine and oyle into his wound And not contented yet with this He set him vp on his owne beast And brought him to an inne of his Where he prouided for his rest And on the morow ere he went He told the host his whole intent Lo take these two pence that I giue Haue care of this man I thee pray His wants therewith do thou relieue What more he spends I will thee pay Which thinkest thou now of these three To him most neighbour like to be The Lawyer answering did say The mercifull was euen he Go thou said Christ then hence away And do as this man teacheth thee To eu'ry one in miserie Shew thou like liberalitie Marie and Martha entertaine Christ Now as they further passed on Into a certaine towne they came Where was the habitation Of one that Martha had to name Who to her house receiued tho Christ and those that with him did go Her sister Marie men did call Which also sate at Iesus feete And heard his preaching as then all Most heedfully as it was meete But Martha was most busily Prouiding for the company Martha therefore to Iesus said Master regardest not thou this That all the care on me is layd And that my sister sitting is Bid her therefore that she helpe me So shalt thou better serued be And Iesus answerd her againe Oh Martha Martha thou hast care For many things put thee to paine And helpers very needfull are The good part Marie chose in deed And she there after sure shall speed Christ rising from prayer was requested of one of his Disciples to teach them as Iohn taught his Disciples to pray As Iesus was praying with his In the desert as some suppose Which vnto Ephraim nearest is And from his prayers as he rose Of his Disciples one did say Teach vs as Iohn taught his to pray He soone of him had his request He was not long enforc'd to craue Christs readinesse this well exprest As he to them example gaue In their distresse both night and day That they as he them taught should pray Our father which in heauen art Thy name be euer sanctified Thy kingdome come withall my heart I wish the same accomplished Thy will in earth be done we pray As thine in heau'n do it alway Our daily bread giue vs this day Our sinnes also to vs forgiue As we our debters do I say That vs in any wise do grieue Let vs by no illusion Be lead into temptation But Lord from euill vs defend And gratiously deliuer all That we which do on thee depend By frailtie from thee neuer fall Graunt these requests oh Lord we pray To vs and thy whole Church alway Amen Moreouer Christ vnto them said Which of you all shall haue a friend And shall when he in bed is layd Haue cause to go to him or send And say a friend to me is come Bread I haue none now lend me some And he within should answer so Why doest thou trouble me I say I pray thee to some other go I must at this time say thee nay The doore is shut my children be In bed I cannot come to thee I say though he would not arise Nor thee regard as should a friend Yet when he seeth thee in such wise Importunat he will thee lend Of bread or meate what thou doest craue Or what thy need requires to haue Aske then it shall be giuen thee And they that seeke shall surely finde Knock I will open then said he For God to them that call is kinde He loueth such men verely As pray vnto him heartely If you for bread giue not a stone Nor for a fish a serpent send When that your sonnes for want do mone If good things you do giue and lend How much more shall the father he Giue good gifts if thou aske to thee Christ cast out a deuill and the dumbe man spake Then they brought vnto Iesus one Possessed with a deuill that day And him for helpe they call vpon The man was dumbe withall I say Though these impediments had he Yet with a word Christ made him free The multitude amazed were And p●a●●ed God with heart and voice The sonne said they of Dauid here Doth giue vs cause for to reioyce And now assured all we be That Christ the Lord the same is he A woman that his workes did see And heard how he taught great and small ●●id blest is the wombe that bare thee And pappes that gaue thee suck withall But Christ said blest they rather are That Gods word heare and keepe with care The Iewes required asigne Christ to the people said againe This wicked generation Adulterous and verie vaine Though signes they do depend vpon No signe to them shall giuen be But that of Ionas they shall see As to the Niniuites was he That three dayes in the Whale did lie The sonne of man shall shortly be The like to these assuredly The signe that Ionas to them gaue I shall giue these so long in graue The men of Niniuie shall rise And these condemne assuredly They did not Ionas words despise But did repent immediatly A greater then Ionas is here Yet small repentance doth appeare The Queene of Saba she shall rise In iudgement with these men also And them she shall condemne likewise That so farre from her home would go To heare king Solomon I say His greater you do heare this day Christ dining with one of the Pharisies and misliked for eating with vnwashen hands answered them and rebuked their hypocrisie As Iesus taught the people then There came to him a Pharisie Requesting him and all his men To dine with him immediatly Then he went in with him to meate And sitting downe began to eate But when the Pharisie did see That Christ sat downe vnwasht before He maruaild what the cause might be For they did vse it euermore They sit not downe at all to meate But first they wash before they eate Indeed said Christ to him againe Ye do make cleane the vtter side Of cup or platter all in vaine Bewraying still your foolish pride But they

to see Supposed as it is of some If Christ therein might be But he went not into the caue Till Simon Peter came Who stepped first into the graue To see and search the same Who there did find the linnen lye And kerchiefe of his head Not with the linnen but set by Wrapt in another stead Then went the other in also That first came to the place And both saw and beleeued tho God giuing both such grace For they did not well vnderstand That Christ should rise indeed Till then so they thence out of hand Returned home with speed Nor did they see or heare as then More then the emptie graue Christ surely had not chosen men First sight of him to haue But Mary would not so depart Nor leaue his graue as yet She felt such sorow in her heart She could him forget But wept and wayled verie sore Which she did not in vaine She was first witnesse made therefore That Christ did rise againe The women they did not depart Their minds were wholy set To find Christ though they suffred smart Nothing the same could let Wherefore to comfort them againe God downe his Angels sent Who heareth his when they complaine Effecting their intent Which Angels to the women sayd Why do ye weepe and wayle Plucke vp your hearts be not affrayd Ye haue no cause to quayle Iesus that late was crucified In graue you looke to find Sith the Scripture is verified Then be not of that mind Christ is not here but risen is Aliue in deed is he And that ye may be sure of this Come to his graue and see What God before appointed had Christ Iesus did fulfill Thereby to make his chosen glad And to obey Gods will Christ spake to you before of this If ye remember well While he in Galilie iwis Did there among you dwell The sonne of man deliuered To sinfull men must be Sayd Christ for to be crucified Yet rise againe will he Then they these words remembered Though they were all affrayd And knew that he had suffered As he before had sayd Thus were the women comforted And eased of their feare And of Christs rising answered While they were weeping there And sent home hastily with care His resurrection To his Disciples to declare With expedition Which three things afterward againe Christ did to them I say 1 He easd their feare 2 they saw him plaine 3 He sent them backe a way But Christ to Mary Magdalen Did first of all appeare While she was weeping euen then At his sepulcher there And when she bowed downe to see And looke the graue into Of Angels there she found to be As Iohn reporteth two Which both where Iesus body lay Were sitting in the graue And thus they vnto Mary say What seekest thou to haue Why weepest thou she sayd againe My Lord is stolne away Because I know not I complaine Where they my Lord did lay When Mary thus to them had sayd She turning backe might see Christ standing by yet all dismayd Christ knew him not to be Christ sayd why weep'st thou she did say Sir if thou bore him hence Now tell me where thou didst him lay And I will fetch him thence All this while she thought Christ to be The gardiner in deed But when by name Christ called she Did turne about with speed And with her body turn'd her mind Thus did effect his call For she which hitherto as blind Perceiud him not at all Confessing now doth answer so That he her master is Whom she as gardner spake vnto And doth reioyse at this This Mary Marke saith Christ made free When she had then at least Seu'n deuils in her wherewith saith he This woman was possest But touch not me did Iesus say That I am not ascended Thou doest beleeue this errour may And must by faith be moued Leaue thou to looke as dead for me I liue assuredly And now to touch me learne to flie By faith aboue the skie And to my brethren say thou so To them I do thee send To my father and yours I go To God I do ascend Which was to lift their earthly mind To looke for whom we loue No more in earthy graue to find But now in heau'n aboue Christ appeared to the women as they went backe from the graue after they had seene the Angels which told them of Christs resurrection Then next while that the women went All homeward in the way For backe the Angels had them sent To tell these newes I say Christ Iesus did to them appeare Mathew doth testifie They worshipp'd him with reu'rence there Embracing ioyfully To whom what both the Angels sayd Christ did confirme againe Plucke vp your hearts be not affrayd You sorow all in vaine Go bid my brethren this sayd he They go to Galilie For me as you haue must they see And shall do speedily So thence they went as charge they had No feare did them annoy All his Disciples to make glad Who thought it but a toy For all the women did report They would it not beleeue No comfort could with them confort Christs death so did them grieue The souldiours signified to the high Priests what was done and they were corrupted with money by them When they were gone the watchmen came The Citie then vnto And told the high Priests all the same Which knew not what to do So mad they were that their deuise Did not effect in deed Together they therefore their wise To counsell call'd with speed Wherein they did with one consent Among themselues agree The watch with money to content They spared for no fee Nor yet the watch did force to lye When they the money had The high Priests hir'd them easily And each of them was glad The Iewes that they had so obtaind The watch to worke their will The watch that they so much had gaind They cared not how ill So both were pleasd but marke the end What was it they should do The watch must lye and they defend It was concluded so The lye was this that Christ from graue Was stolne away by night And his Disciples surely haue Now hid him out of sight When was it done while we were all By heauie sleepe opprest And when we thought that great and small Had likewise bene at rest If they then slept how did they see When he was stolne away And his Disciples knew to be That did him thence conuay Or why did they being armed men Not seeme for to resist Those weakelings without weapons then Too late comes had I wist If theeues had stolne the bodie thence They had not left behind The linnen clothes the recompence That they were there to find If friends the shame to see him bare Had causd them this to do As of the bodie to haue care To take the linnen to Yet they vpon presumption And promise to them made By the high Priests persuasion Set vp their lying
