A13870	A vvarning to England to repente and to tvrne to god from idolatrie and poperie by the terrible exemple of Calece, giuen the 7. of March. Anno. D. 1558. By Benthalmai Outis.	Traheron, Bartholomew, 1510?-1558?	1558 (1558)	STC 24174; ESTC S102452	10,894	36

idolatrie a stocke worshipper a cakeworshipper a bold blasphemer of the true Christ whose blessed bodie is gloriously placed in heauen and not pinde in popes pixes Thy ruler is disdainful and so proude that to be the wife of an emperors sonne for hope that she shal once be called my ladie emperesse she is contente not only to make the as bare as a birdes taile but also vnnaturally to betraie the hir natiue countree make the subiecte to a popish proude vnmerciful and vngodlie nation She is despiteful cruel bloodie wilful furious gileful stuffed with painted processes with simulation dissimulatiō void of honestie void of vpright dealinge voide of al semelie vertues I speake not this of hatred god I cal to recorde nor for anie luste to recompte others lothesome euils but only to cal hir to spedie repentaunce by the vgle sight of hir most horrible sinnes I iudge surely that of al other I ought most to lamente hir as the most vnfortunate womā that euer was For whereas besides these detestable open and wel knowen vices and other more secrete fowle sores she is giltie of the blood damnation of al those that haue perished daily perish and shal perish thorough the most abominable grosse idolatrie and false religion that she hath sette vp and thorough wante of the true knowlege of Christ which she hath by al meanes possible quenched and oppressed yet she hath not one that wil warne hir of the most miserable and most terrible state that she standeth in Wherefore sith al hir frendes and louers shauelinges and other slaues of the poleshorē swarme with silence and closed lippes see hir runne hedlōg in to the lake that burneth with vnquenchable fier I thought it my dutie to do good for euil and by opening and laying corrosies to hir piteful festred sores to prepare them to a farther cure that she perish not euerlastingly And I beseche god most hertely to bring my desire to effecte which is surely none other but that hir sowle thorough the great mercies of god and hir hūble knowleging hating and renouncing of hir sinnes in time maie be saued from helfier It maie wel be that for this my warning she wil seke my death but she shal surely seke the death of him that loueth hir better and wold do more for hir perpetual safetie than al the fatte fed preistes and papistes ether in the courte or in the countree And if she knew asmuch as I do she wold be gladder of the woundes that I haue giuen hir thā of al the kisses that euer she had in al hir life first or last For what shuld it auaile hir if with the losse of hir sowle for euer she might a while possesse in this world al the ioies together that ar conteined therein Nothing erthlie wold be bought with euerlastīg torment which shal as certainly comme vpon hir as god liueth and is true of his worde onles before corporal death she repente hir of these most detestable abominat●●●s that I haue now laied forth and turne 〈◊〉 time from the false pope patched poperie to the true Christ and tru religion be purged and sanctified not by coniured waters and mennes phantastical deuises but by the holie spirite of god Which grace if god of his infinite goodnes shal graunte hir I wil seke no greater rewarde of my trauail But lette vs procede in our consideration and comme now to the counsel of Calece one of the cheifest whereof the greatest sembler dissembler the subtilest flatterer that liueth called to another office in the courte by the death of a vile nonnish papist was absent at the subduyng of the toune That Vlysses I saie the deuiser of mischeife was absent not to auoid but to runne in to a more horrible plage onles he preuente it with spedie repentance This is he who in king Edwardes time putte on a maske and visor of a protestant and with his melie mouth and flering lookes crepte in to good mennes bosomes This is he who thorough craftines of witte and by the helpe of a mad calfe begiled the good lord wentworth drue him from a better purpose and so was the occasion of al the mischeife and miseries that haue ensued sit●●ns Besides this false traitor to god to his srendes and to his countree who as I saide was awaie at the ruine of the tounne the rest of the coūsel of Calece were not notoriously nawghtie men In the most parte of them a man colde desire nothinge saue more zeale to the truth that thei knew more strenghth of minde more feare of god than of a womā For this in dede was a commune faulte amonge them al worthie manie deathes and vttre destruction that thei stode not to the knowen truth but for feare and to satisfie the wil of an ignorant wilful woman suffred them selues to be defiled with abominable masse idolatrie and were contente with grudge of conscience to seme to drincke in againe al the popes filthie dregges Certaine of them were papistes to I wote wel and yet thei retained some ciuilite and outwarde honestie Turne thyne eyes now to thy coūsel England how fierce tygres how cruel wolues how rauening beares how lecherous goates how wilie foxes or to speake plainly without figure what periured traitors to god and to the what murderers what oppressors of the poore what voluptuous Sardanapales what adulterers how vile flatterers shalt thou finde amonge them It were a smal faulte and a verie peccaduliā in them to dissemble the truth of religion Thei raile vpon it they tosse it with scoffes mockes thei bloodely tyrānously persequute it It might be wicked at if thei toke bribes ōly to oppresse the cause of a few poore mē thei take bribes to betraie the hole realme It might be passed ouer with silence if thei had murdered but one mā a peece the blood of innumerable sainctes crieth vp to heauen agaīst them the groninges of manie thousandes oppressed ar heard euerie where It might perchaunce be perdoned if they spent but some weekes in pleasures they wallow continually in vile voluptuousnes and wantō daliance and waste al their vnhappie daies in beastlie delites nether can chaūge of women nor women only satisfie their filthie abominable desires Breifely there be no vices in the world whereof you maie not see great buddes or rather great bounnies and bunches in them Here I maie not lette scape the pristes of Calece a foule broode of thy henne Papistes they were and verie furies of hel But if thei be compared to thy prelates and preistes thei were but demipapistes and demidiuels For he that wold discouer the fowle inwarde partes of thy shauelinges and filthie smered flocke shuld seme to rake vp the botome of hel yea he that wold shew the outwarde partes of them naked shuld shew the fowlest sight that euer was sene in the world For what idolatrie what pride what couetousnes what crueltie what lecherie what sodomitrie was euer
