the hart or of any other member of man if they bee good affections they are certayne remnauntes of Gods image Man hath also almost lost that notable wisdome and absolute authoritie of rule and dominion ouer liuing creatures For albeit there remayneth in him vnto this day some povver ouer them yet the same is ioyned vvith greate perill and greefe not vvanting tyrannie and crueltie For the horse vvyll not obey man vvithoute bytte and brydle neyther vvyll the Oxe dravve the Plough vvithout he bee yoked The sheepe will not yeelde wooll and milke vnlesse she be bounde Byrdes are taken vvith pollicie and cunning And fishes vvith the hooke net other instrumentes As for Tygres Lyons Beares Woolfes Panthers and suche like they are not onely not obedient but extreme aduersaries to mankinde Nowe if any man aske vvhye God made vvilde beastes so disobedient and hurtful to man It is to be answered that this is commen to passe That disobedient children might be corrected For man vvell deserued suche a scourge after his transgression And therefore by meanes of sinne our seruants are armed against vs wild beasts suffred to tormēt afflict vs for so the scripture saith I wil sende amongst you famine and wilde beastes When man was in the state of innocency they were all tame and obedient vnto him And novve thoughe they rebell yet by Gods mercy fewe doe perishe by them And if anye miscarie there ariseth therof a double commodity First an example of gods seueritie as in the Samaritanes who were killed of Lyons In the children that for scorning at Elizeus were destroyed of Beares and in the disobedient prophet who perished with the Lyon. Secondly gods maiesty herein shevveth it selfe mightely in that he is able to cause the wilde and cruell beastes to reuenge his cause against disobedient persons And finally herein we may also consider gods great goodnesse tovvarde vs in secluding shutting them vp out of mennes societie into desertes wildernesses appoynting them the night to walke in and to seeke their pray whiles morning when man goeth about his busines they all auoyd his sight presence and lie hid in their dennes with trembling and feare Man hath also lost eternall felicitie and blessednesse and hath onely lefte vnto him in steede thereof this worldly and earthly lyfe which is short miserable painefull and is subiect to daungerous death euery moment For cruell death seasoneth vppon all men that are borne of corrupt parents assone as they are fashioned in their mothers wombe because they are infected with sinne And therfore all the dayes of their lyfe death is as it were mans hangman and tormētor First the imbecillity of mans substance and strength is the bitte of Satan Then the shortnes of mans lyfe the perils dangers in the same the cruell diseases the vntimely soden vnnatural deathes the resolution of our bodies into dust ashes do euidently expresse his force and malice against mankinde Whiche thinges I willingly note to admonishe men deepely to consider their miserable and wretched estate For man is not only a bubble of water during but a short time sodenly vanishing away but he is a thing much more miserable wherby it is most apparant that man is not now any longer the excellent image of God but the bondslaue of the diuell then the whiche there can bee nothing more lamentable or miserable But the vse of that which we haue vttered alreadie touching the remnantes of Gods image in man is to put vs in remembrance of those great things which we haue lost by sinne and those remnants are much like the rubble of a faire and beautifull citie destroyed And such as they be they ought not to be cōtemned beeing as it were notes remembraunces that god will in eternall life renew restore his image to man according to his holy worde Prouided always that by meanes of this doctrine no power at all be ascribed to man in spirituall matters before regeneration and not ouer much neither in carnall and earthly things For both these excesses are culpable Let vs therefore bewayle this great losse of ours and agayne let vs not forget to geue thanks that it hath pleased him to leaue in vs some print of his image and cheefly let vs reioyce that by Christe wee are regenerate and reconciled to God in this life and that his Image shall be perfectly restored vnto vs in the life to come And before I conclude this parte I thinke it not amisse to admonishe my Reader of certayne detestable and grosse Errors quite contrarie to this doctrine First certayne Athistes and Epicures hold that there is nothing corrupt in man after his first creation and condition vvhich opynion the Manichees doo also mayntayne And this Error seemeth too springe of meere Ignoraunce of mannes creation and fall The Pelagians and certayne Scholemen dreamed mannes nature to bee syncere and vncorrupte after hys Natiuitie euen as Adam vvas before his fall But that furor is directly agaynst the vvorde of God Beholde I am conceyued in iniquitie And agayne The sence of the fleshe is Enimitie agaynste the spirite And some also nowe a dayes vvrite that there is some povver in man before regeneration euen in spirituall thinges and that man is a cooperator or worker vvith God and that it is in mans power to take to folow to assent albeit faintly with God in spirituall thinges which is meere cōtrary to the holy scripture for the Apostle saith The naturall man perceiueth not thinges whiche be of Gods spirite for they are folishnesse vnto him speaking of man not regenerate Finally this extremitie is to be reprehended that there is no porcion at all of gods image left in man And that there is left vnto man no knovvledge of God at al that he hath no principles of arts or accions but that hee is muche like a cleane sheete of paper ot table into the vvhiche vvith education and study hee maye write thinges But saint Paule saith That the worke of the lawe is written in the Gentiles hartes And euen by the law of nature those that be not yet regenerate haue some knovvledge albeit obscure that there is a God and that he is a iuste god Albeit they vnderstande nothing of his essence and of his perfect wil conteyned in the lavve and gospell The fourth part of the Anatomie of the renouation or regeneration of the olde Man. OVT OF WHAT EXCELlent dignitie and honor man vvas deposed and caste by meanes of his transgression and vtterly drovvned in a deepe sea of all euill it hath bene already briefely and plainely declared It now remayneth that vve haue some due consideration of Gods greate mercy povver and goodnesse in the renouation and regeneration of the olde manne For after the fall of Adam God could not doe any thing eyther more mightely or mercifully then to sende
loue of pietie and all other heauenly vertues vntill vve haue runne out our race in this life do come vnto the goale or garland of promised felicitie vvhich is so incomprehensible to all humaine speeche penne and cogitation that the Apostle in the declaration therof findeth in him selfe some defecte and vvante and therefore repeteth oute of the Prophet The eye hath not seene the eare hath not heard neither hath the hart of man conceyued those Ioyes vvhiche God hath prepared for those that loue him FINIS The knowledge of Anatomy profitable for mans lyfe The knowledge of anatomy doe induce vs to thinke y there is a god Galen vsu part alijs locis Iob. 10. 37 38. 39.
