the aucthour of all mischief and abhomination so that whatsoeuer followeth hym and his Antichristian doctrine may be sure to come vnto damnation 102 Christ praied to his heauenly father that Peters faith might not fayle Antichrist praieth that Peters patrimony as they call it may neuer fayle 103 Christ refuseth no paine to doe good to his congregation Antichrist refuseth no payne so that he may haue lucre and gaine 104 Christ went vp willingly to Ierusalem to suffer death for the elect people of God. Antichrist hateth nothyng more then the crosse As for Gods people he regardeth them not except they bring money 105 Christ when he might haue escaped and gone awaie from his enemies freely gaue himselfe into their handes to be crucified for the saluation of other Antichriste resisteth his enemies with tothe and nayle with hande and Sword and with all that euer he is able to make neither suffereth he gladly any aduersity except it be for the maintainaunce of hys owne pompe and glory and for the enrichement of Saint Peters patrimonie 106 Christ was striped out of his clothes and was all to beaten and scourged and false witnes brought in against hym Antichrist is well clothed with precious garments and hath chaunge for euery day and commaundeth other to be beaten and sore puished and false witnesse to be brought in to testifie whatsoeuer hee will haue against the poore innocent christen people 107 Christ being most vniustly wrongfully accused and hauyng many vntruthes obiected againste hym as a Lambe dum before his shearer opened not his mouth When he was reuiled he reuiled not againe when he suffred ▪ he threatned not but committed the vengeance to him that iudgeth righteously Antichrist being iustly accused both of false doctrine and corrupt manners and admonished to amend will by no meanes geue eare but seeketh al mea●es possible to bee reuenged He will bee iudge of all menne but iudged of none He will condemne whom he lust and he will not once be touched His doctrine although neuer so vnpure he defendeth with fyre and fagot with sworde and halter Whosoeuer disdaine to embrace and maintaine it all theim hee excommunicateth cut of from the body of Christ appointeth them vnto euerlastyng damnation interditeth their Landes Realmes and countreys

bitter boltes of the most bitter curse 108 Christ had a crowne of sharpe thornes set vpon his head with so great violence that the bloud runne doune ouer all his amiable face and boystrous nayles driuen thorowe his precious handes Antichrist weareth vpon his head three crownes of gold richly set with precious stones and hath his handes and finger all royally decked with owches and ringes He passeth poore Christe farre farre 109 Christ tooke the crosse of painefull affliction vpon hymselfe and commaunded his Disciples likewise to follow him saiyng He that will not take his Crosse and folow me is not meete for mee Antichrist taketh the Crosse of pryde and hath it borne before hym well gilte and ameled to sette forthe his pride and pompe before the worlde like vnto Lucifer As for other crosse he knoweth none 110 Christ praied his Father to forgiue them that trespassed against hym yea he praied for them that put him to death Antichrist commaundeth both kynges and princes and Emperours to auenge his quarell and to slea all them that resist his mynde promisyng thē that if thei die in his quarel thei shall die glorious martyrs in the sight of God straight waies come vnto heauen yea before their bloud bee colde As touchyng forgeuenesse he hath none acquaintaunce therewith 111 Christ aproued his Lawe and confirmed it with his owne death Antichrist is full busy to destroye the law of Christ and to maintaine his owne decrees and that with the death of all them that will say the contrary 112 Christ was buried in a poore monument Sepulchre or graue without any funerall pompe Antichrist is buried in a glorious tōbe well gilt and very gorgious set out with many torches and greate solemnitie and with Angelles gloriously portured that beare his soule to heauen when notwithstandyng it is to be feared that hee goeth to suppe with the Diuell whom he hath so diligētly serued al the daies of his life 113 Christ suffred death for our sinnes rose againe for our iustification or els al we should haue perished and been damned Antichrist for the forgeuenesse of oure sinnes and of our iustification sendeth vs to his Pardons and Bulles to his yeres of Iubile and Masses of Scala celi yea he sendeth vs to a Grayefryers Coule and willeth vs to be buried in that promising vs by that meanes both remission of synnes and euerlastyng life Is not this too treade vnder foote the sonne of God and to count the bloud of the Testament as an vnholy thing yea and to doe dishonour to the Spirite of grace Is not this that beast whiche opened his mouth to speake blasphemies againste the moste highest God against his most glorious name Is not this that sinnefull man that sonne of perdition that aduersary whiche exalteth hymself aboue all that is called God or that is worshipped so that he doth sit in the Temple of God boastyng hymselfe to be God O Antichrist 114 Christ after his resurrection appeared to his Disciples and brought vnto them peace and greate ioy Antichriste when hee commeth abroad and sheweth himselfe vnto men commeth like a game player in his Papalibus full gloriously and gorgiously and bringeth to the beholders blessynges that is crossinges and wagginges of fingers with suche other vaine and triflyng toyes 115 Christ reproued in his Disciples vnfaithfulnesse and hardnesse of hearte Antichrist findeth faulte with his captiues if they be vnfaithfull and disobedient to his decrees and slacke in paiyng of money 116 Christ sought all meanes possible to confirme the faithe of his disciples in the article of his resurrection Antichrist

certaine of hys Disciples by the waie that their heartes burned within them so swetely and louingly did he open vnto theim the true right vnderstandyng of the Scriptures Antichrist doeth so talke and vttereth suche doctrine that it enflameth not but apalleth the heartes of the hearers it quickeneth not but rather dismaieth For it is not the word of the spirite but of the fleshe not of light but of darkenesse not of life but of death and in fine not of conuersion and saluation but of desperation and eternall damnation 118 Christe

his furie be apeaced with good sommes of money 83 Christ proued and defended his Doctrine againste the enemies thereof with the testimonies of Moses of the Psalmes and of the Prophetes Antichriste proueth and defendeth his Decrees and Traditions with generall Councels with constitutions prouincial with the authorities of forefathers with the prescriptes of olde customes with the Sophisticall and Carnall reasons of the Scholemen and if al these wil not serue with Fire and Fagotte with Swearde and halter 84 Christ so trauailed in goyng aboute from countreye to countreye preachyng the will of his heauenly Father that hee was many tymes weary of his iourney Antichrist taketh his ease sittyng at home in his riche Chaires vpon his golden Cushins and precious Carpettes If at any tyme he will take the ayre abroad either he is caried vpon mens shoulders as a GOD of the Earth or els he rideth vpon his Moyle gorgiously trapped and harnessed 85 Christ beholdyng the lamentable teares of the Widowe whose Sonne was dead and caried forth to be buried had pitie and compassion on her and saied vnto her Weepe not and immediatly he deliuered her Sonne aliue againe vnto her that tofore was dead Antichrist euidently seyng greate enormities and manifolde most greuous abuses in the Churche of Christ whereof he braggeth himself to be the head although moued and prouoked with the humble supplications feruent desires and earnest praiers of many good and godly men both by writyng and otherwise neither taketh awaie the enormities nor correcteth the abuses but rather as a sworne aduersary against God and all godlinesse he goeth forth daily more and more to stablishe and confirme those abhominations seekyng no redresse as the experience of this our tyme doeth moste manifestlie declare 86 Christ disdained not to come vnto Lazarus graue nothyng beeyng dismaide with the euill sauour of the dead corps although tofore therof warned and to raise hym vp from death vnto life Antichrist abhorreth nothyng more thā euill sauours hauing his great delight in sweete perfumes and pleasaunt odours beyng of the nūber of those which on this wise speake in the booke of Wisedome Come on let vs enioy the pleasures that there are and let vs sone vse the creature like as in youth Lette vs fill our selues with good Wine and Ointment and let there no flower of the time goe by vs Let vs crowne our selues with Roses afore they be withered Let there bee no faire Medowe but our luste go thorowe it Let euery one of you be partaker of our voluptuousnesse Lette vs leaue some token of our pleasure in euery place For that is our portion els get we nothyng 87 Christe wepte when he came to raise vp Lazarus consideryng with hym self that synne is the cause not onely of the death of the bodie but also of the death of the soule and of all other euils plages Antichrist reioiseth in euill doyng and is gladde when sinne reigneth florisheth and triumpheth For then is hys Marchaundise wel bought as Pardons Masses of Scala caeli Absolution c. 88 Christ is that louyng and gentle shepheard which when one of his sheepe was gone astraie lefte the residue and neuer ceased till he had founde her out Beeyng found hee sweetely laide her vppon his shoulder and tenderly brought her home againe with greate ioy and muche gladnesse and callyng together his louers and neighbors he said vnto them Oh reioice with me for I haue found my shepe which was lost Antichrist is of an other disposition and contrary minded For if any runne astray neuer so little from his lowsie lawes trifeling traditions diuelishe decrees and crooked constitutions canckered customes c. straightwaies he is excommunicate and cursed as blacke as a Crowe with booke bell and Candell euen boune to the deepe dongeon of Hell

woundes poured oyle and Wine set hym on his owne Beaste brought hym into a common Inne and made prouision for hym Antichrist is that abhominable theefe and cruell murderer whiche without all pitie and
