knowest who quietly seeke to direct our liues They say to vs talke not of conscience meddle not of Religion and you shall be free Yeald to vs in shewe and giue outward consent to our lawes and actions Come reuerently to our rites and prayers be one of vs at least in profession Forsake your accustomed Sacramentes renounce the society and communion of Catholikes Then beleeue in hart howe you lift we admit you good subjectes and no enemies of our Religion Misery hangeth ouer our heads if we yeald not to this suggestion but a thousand miseries if we doe relent If we forsake thy Tabernacle hell claymeth interest in vs the fiend taketh seyzion of our soules Standing stedfast vve are consumed to nothing neither finde end of trouble but by death A CONSOLATORIE PSALME ANSWEring to the former THE SECOND PSALME LIFT vp thy head O Virgin Sion receiue comfort yee children of Hierusalem Yee zealous soules who groane vnder sore persecution and sit in heauines for your conscience sake Who haue beene tried by fire and found pure peysed in ballance and found sufficient Your constancy our Lord maker hath beheld accepting the same as a most gratefull Sacrifice Confirme your hartes in hope for your redemption is not farre off The yeare of visitation draweth to an end and Iubilation is at hand Albeit yee be as drops fallen into the Sea and as graines of gold among the mountaynes Yet are yee respected from on high as loyall and louing children the reliques of Israell shall bee saued Hierusalem shall be built vp againe and the second glory thereof shal be greater then the first The Church purged in the fornace of tribulation shal shine brighter then euer before Righteousnes shall prosper and infidelity shall bee plucked vp by the rootes God wil arise as from a long slumber and establish againe the Arke of his sanctification Feare not little IACOB hee that is thy Redeemer from the Diuell will be thy deliuerer from all euill His thou art his flocke and fold Catholike is thy name To hurt thee is to hurt him to touch thee is to touch the apple of his eye Arise therefore from the earth shake off sorrowes thy confusion shall giue glace to glory The morning dewe is prest to fal and the night to be discharged of her course With the eye of pitty the Lord of hostes shall visit vs and send saluation to his people Turning their water into wine their wormewood into suger canes His scattered flocke he will vnite againe and reduce strayers into safety The roote which hath waxen old vnder ground shall shoote vp againe as a fresh plant by the riuer side No man shall vpbraid it vvith barrennes or say it vvas a cursed stocke False errour shall vanishe like smoake and they vvhich sawe it shall say where is it become Iust judgement and holy lawes shall be restored If a Woman can forget her child or if we can forget our right handes yet will not Christ be vnmindfull of Sion his heritage Sooner shall he forget his owne throne then her desolation For ashes hee shall giue her a Crowne for baths of teares vnction of joy Requiting her ignominy with honour her sackcloath of sorrowe with robes of festiuity His Tabernacle he will spred againe and dwell among vs as in time past Cladding his Priestes with holynes and his seruants with purity Sacred songes shall breake their long silence the lampe of our Lord shall be reuiued Preachers of saluation shall without feare lift vs their voice The Churches shall be hallowed againe no vncleane persons shall enter therein The forrests and rockes shal send thither their chiefest glory for beautifying of sacred workes Screetch-owles shall seeke newe habitation and resigne to the simple Doue With sweeter then milke hony seauen fountaynes shal spring afresh and flowe The resemblance of heauen shall be renewed the resemblance of hell shall be destroyed England shall bee called a happy Realme a blessed Country a Religious people Those which knewe the former glory of Religion shall lift vp their handes for joy to see it returned againe Those which neuer sawe it shall be stroaken with admiration VVishing that they had sooner knowne the truth and condemning their fathers which forsooke it Men shal say of it one to another here is indeede the house of God the gate of heauen Howe great diuersity is betweene truth and falshoode deuout solemnities and counterfeit ceremonies From the East point to the West men shall confesse their errours They which thought themselues wisest shall say they knew nothing Gladly shall people walke in their auncients steps of truth and equity beginning to learne howe to loue God aright Howe to loue him and serue him howe to honour him sincerely in a perfect hart Be no more apald O little flocke of Christ the Prince of peace vvill breake the exactors rodde Rescuing you from captiuity and bringing you vnto desirable pastures Take courage for he is with you his assistance neuer faileth To his glory he created you and for his name sake he wil protect and saue you No longer will he dissemble the oppression of his people he is bent to reuenge their cause The Daughters of Babilon shall be cast downe and in the dust lament their ruine Proude Heresie shall strike her saile and groane as a beast crushed vnder a cartwheele Though her hart be flint her neck yron her forhead brasse The Omnipotent hath sworne to make her stoope and that he vvill abase her haughtines Though shee fret his chosen vine neuer so much in despight of her it shall shoote vp and prosper Ten times if it be cut downe ten times it shall arise more glorious God hath planted it with his owne hand he hath vvatered it vvith the bloud of Martirs it shall flourish He hath considered the insolency of our enemies their cruell dealing hath not escaped his sight Howe arrogantly they walke before our face glorying in their wickednes But the memory of nouelties shall perish with a cracke as a ruinous house falling to the ground Repent yee seducers with speede and preuent the dreadfull wrath of the most powreable Least his ire tread vpon you like a conquerour Least sodainely he draw you forth out of your terrestriall Paradise as thornes vvhich are not pulled vp with handes We haue long tasted the cup of his indignation but for sinners he hath reserued the dregges thereof Greene and flourishing boughes haue not escaped his heauy hand and shall he be mercifull to rotten branches Let iniquity no longer lie deceiuing it selfe with vaine security For thus promiseth the defendor of Israell He will come as a flame that bursteth out beyond the fornace His enemies shall be like stubble in his way His fury shal flie forth as thunder and pitch vpon their tops which maligne him With him is both wisdome and strength he quaileth the world with a becke He knoweth how to dull the weapons of the mighty and to frustrate
