Robert Horne late Byshop of Winchester, at what time he suffered exile from his country, for the testimony of a good conscience, as his apology in the beginning of the booke will witnes.

English. Selections	Calvin, Jean, 1509-1564.; Horne, Robertc1519?-1580.; Munday, Anthony, 1553-1633.	1584 (1584)	STC 4461; ESTC S110726	58,766	149

charge_v we_o with_o all_o if_o they_o have_v we_o shall_v have_v hear_v tell_v of_o it_o or_o now_o thank_v be_v to_o god_n for_o his_o mercy_n towards_o we_o for_o this_o be_v only_o his_o work_n in_o we_o life_n and_o god_n grant_v these_o unshamefast_a hypocrite_n true_a repentance_n and_o amendment_n of_o their_o life_n for_o a_o number_n of_o they_o be_v notorious_a tavernehaunter_n common_a brawler_n very_a drunkard_n know_a sodomite_n and_o manifest_o prove_v whoremonger_n and_o if_o they_o will_v say_v this_o be_v speak_v of_o malice_n i_o protest_v before_o god_n that_o be_v not_o true_o say_v for_o i_o do_v not_o name_v they_o because_o i_o love_v the_o man_n although_o i_o hate_v their_o condition_n as_o touch_v fast_v prayer_n and_o preach_v liberty_n when_o do_v

as_o christ_n rebuke_v the_o prayer_n and_o fasting_n of_o the_o pharisaical_a hypocrite_n which_o in_o deed_n be_v all_o one_o with_o these_o man_n prayer_n &_o fasting_n and_o the_o liberty_n we_o

of_o pharisaical_a tradition_n as_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o bear_v but_o this_o i_o know_v well_o they_o will_v charge_v i_o with_o all_o and_o many_o other_o that_o herein_o i_o show_v myself_o a_o carnal_a preacher_n for_o that_o i_o do_v not_o live_v a_o sole_a life_n without_o marriage_n as_o they_o do_v if_o they_o live_v chaste_a without_o marriage_n let_v they_o give_v god_n thanks_n

this_o one_o reason_n well_o consider_v ought_v it_o not_o to_o inflame_v and_o stir_v up_o our_o mind_n to_o offer_v ourselves_o whole_o to_o god_n and_o to_o show_v our_o whole_a endeavour_n in_o
