Their wepōs armor was lost by gods puruciāce They did I assure you behaue themselues nobly To requite the kings grace they had good perseuerance Ponde●ing the preferment by his magnanimitie This notwithstanding the commons besides Doncaster Ascribed a Carter to a King coequall in degrée With coshe Crommoke coshe I would we had thée here Like sauage beastes loosed and put to their libertie Enioying in the splendent after obscuritie Deuising and inuenting Articles presumptuous Euery one discording from other verily Two Gentlemen did open their quarel contentious But one lanterne of Englande and patrone of defence A shield for vs Borials and floure of audacitie The Duke of Norfolke with all his violence To the kings armie Royall to Doncaster came he With the noble prince Pere of the kings consanguinitie The Marques of Exeter nigh to the bloud Royall With the auncient Lord th therle of Shrewesbury Whose truthe in decrepitie approueth the tryall Their veritie to their Prince my hart hath enrachened Like a woman rauished with the rase of loue esprised And many nobles mo them selues so well demeaned That of me their worthynesse it can not be deuised As Th erle of Surrey with these Earles comprised That is to say of Huntington and Rutlande also With many other nobles which was there surmised And as for Lords honorable there was many mo Thus lay they in Doncaster with Curtall Serpentine With Bombard Basilisk with men prone vigorous The Commons knew it not to them it was claudestine That made them more malapart and also more rigorous For they sent home for money their harts was so furious Purposing openly at London to holde a Parliament But the king herauld came to know their minds furious Uiewing them twise or thrise with faire words diligēt But ere the Battell was ready procincte and proponed Sir Arthure Darcy knight with the cōmons was segregate And fled to the kings grace and by the way commoned With the duke of Norff. where promtly he promulgate All the Commons priuitie and I suppose effugate He was by the consent of his brother confiducion For at the first rising sir George with letters ornate Aduertised all gentlemen to leaue that ill conclusion But whē the duke of Norf. of the Barons had intelligēce And so many knights squires with the cōmons in defēce It incrampished his hart that they should make pretence Weying his fathers honor by their magnificence Their antique zeale amitie he thought to recompence Bringing both the parts to a communication So diuers of the principals met with diligence Concluding a purpose with good deliberation So sir Rafe Ellerker and Robert Bowes Esquire With the articles intitled went to the kings maiestie The battels both prorumped and went euery where For the duke behight to intercéede in their sedulitie In causes reasonable but not in their cecitie And so within a moneth according to promission An answere correspondent to their secularitie Was made by the kings grace to their whole petition The firste Article To the first article Fayth the kings grace replied It was a terme to general that which they did present But if they meaned christes faith he was the prince the certified That the sincere puritie therof was his intent And like a valiaunt prince he spake these words vrgent Who dare set his foote to ours the contrary to proue And said he reckned learned he was what the faith ment Marueling that the ignorant in this thing shold him moue To the Article To know which fayth was prudēce perceiuing we Christians He hath herd of such heresies as of the Selcucians Of Sabelline and Neotus with the Patrispassians The Origenistes the Ebionites and the Donacianes The Epicures the Iacobites with the Nestoriens Of Seuerus of Menander and eke of Valentine The Antropomorphites and also the Spalmeniens The Ariens and Manacheis of Pallas and Scotine Also of Marcio Basillid es and Saturnius Of Carpocrates of Photyne and of Macedonius Of Chiliastes of Corinthius and of Heluidius Of Eutiches Galanus and also Seleucius Of Eunonius Elsesates with many a secte mo Of Montanus of Apelles and also Nouatus And Samosatenses and Appolinarius also With Antichrist the Romane the Idoll monstruous This is the groue image which the sinful world Manasses Put in the congregation the house perpetuall This is the Idoll shepheard which Zachary doth expresse And also the deuourer the false God Baall An vnshamefull King with faces Daniell doth him call This is the Iudge in earth in the xviij of Luke expressed For wée haue lost our Husband Chryst with his bloud royal And Sathan our enimie he is not yet oppressed This is the childe of perdition prophesied of by Paule In our conscience sitting Gods Temple verament The Apocalips fysgyg the whoore Babilonicall Of whom Prophets Apostles rehearseth words t●rg●t Nowe to this particle fayth was it not expedient They to haue recognised what fayth was their intention For besides Christs faith there reigneth faithes negligēt As Turke Iew Pagane with Mah●mites inuention As touching Christes faith sithence Christes incarnation Neither Emperour nor king nor prince of nobilitie Was like to the kings grace for in his conuocation The Anabaptists and Pelagians confuted hath he And permitted shadowes positiue of olde antiquitie For error of the people by a new altercation And also shewed like Gods knight elect in fidelitie Chrystes bloud and his death with the true iustification Of Fayth But to the misbeléeuers I put this proposition By way of interrogatorie if one of them should dye And know no refuge nor no propiciation But in Mormet in fistill they should euer lye And the prince they offended should fortune come thē by And say loue my friends and forgiue as I will thée And when thou can not repent my sonne shal for thée die And doo but this to day and rewarded shalt thou bée For to morrow thy riches shal abounde like to Croesus Thy force ▪ like Hercules thy sapience like Salomon Thou shalt haue meates delicate far aboue Vitellus In fame like Alexander thy fortune like Gedeon The luste of Augustus the pulchritude of Absolon The science of Aristotle and his Philosophie As facunde in Rethorike as was king Amphion With the health of Galen and age of Methusalie What man liuing considering this gratitude But for loue of this Prince feare of this miserie And for hope of this ioy but with his fortitude He would one day labour and suffer aduersitie And passe for no riches nor yet of iocunditie Nor of no fortune dolorous nor yet of no payne Nor of meate drinke ne cloth ne no felicitie But would fayne haue to morrow this glory to obtayne Then may we consider Adams disobedience By whose transgression equitie hath giuen death eternal And as for Moyses law it gathered more offence To the highe deitie and Plasmator potentiall Tooke pitie and mercy to make his sonne carnall And Sathanas hath loste him for all his temptation He hath pleased his father and giuen life perpetuall By his true obedience and made iustification He hath ouercome death and sin by
and the Lordes brethern all Led Sisters to wiues without ambiguitie In this chapter Paul sheweth great libertie They that sowe things spiritual should reape things carnall And that as mynisters vsed of olde antiquitie So should they haue for preaching the truth Euangelical But yet in his Epistles this is the summe totall The workeman his meate and reward should be deuised And so sayth Chryst him selfe wherein concludeth Paule That they ought with meate and clothes to be suffised These should preach with true predication How that disobedience hath giuen death and damnation And how the law was giuen to know to reconcile agayn Whose works wrought outward is litle more than vain For therby commeth abundance and copious fertilitie But inward from the hart that giueth life eternall But if one once thinke agaynst it by Gods true equitie There is death condemnation vnto the paines infernal And after these things timorous they shuld preach repentāce And remission of sins by our sauiour christs diligēce As a lambe vndefiled he hath made deliueraunce And made our attonement by his true obedience His death hath slayne death al the Diuels pretence To them that beléeueth it and made iustification After they be baptised they haue for their defence The gift of the holy ghost to kéepe them to saluation Now who beléeueth not this with this key is bound That it can not be dissolued with the Roman Acheron Nor with all his children liuing on the grounde As Aletho Megers nor yet Tesiphone Nor by his owne works nor no mans optation But beléeuing this truth the other key dissolueth For on this stone is builded the Christen congregation which the edifiers must build on or els it nought profiteth Thou art Chryst quod Peter the son of the liuing God Here Peter confesseth al not knowing it no fayle Of him selfe for he spake it not of fleshe and bloud And agaynst this Rocke hell gates nor sin can preuayle Christ promised the keys of knowledge bicause the wits are frail In the same chapter to declare it Christ began I must dye and ryse quod he to Peter let his tale Spare thy self master he said thou offēdest me quod christ sathā Thou finellest worldly things quod he but not things celestial Here is to be noted that Peter reckned playne That he was Messias or a Sauiour temporall Therefore Chryst behight the Keyes the truth to certaine In the eyghtéene of Mathewe he sheweth more agayne For bynding of Heresies vnto the apostles al In Iohn we may sée the Keyes they did obtayne To lose and bynde sinnes and that with power coequall Chryst commaunded saith Luke before his ascention The apostles to go to the world vniuersall To preach his tydings glad and true Euangelion And who is baptised and beléeueth it they shal be saued all Nowe this key loseth from all sinnes in generall And who beléeueth it not damned shall he bée Now this key bindeth and Chryst in especiall Of fayth wrought the miracles in his humanitie In Hierusalem the Apostles by inspyration Were inflamed by instinction of the holy ghost And receyued newe tongs with the declaration Equally deuided as wel to least as most In the xv of the Actes there Iames he ruled the rost And Paule checked Peter this appéereth verament I marueile why then of Peter that they best For their power and their déedes were all equipolent Euery Apostle Priest Deacon and Senior In his Sée or personage or his habitation Should after twice monishing call euery Lepor Denying Gods lawes before the congregation And if he repent not then is their ministration To expulse him as an erronious Publican And giue him to the Deuill by excommunication As was Himeneus and Alexander and the Corinthian But when he beléeueth with perfect repentance They must edifie not destroye and absolue him againe And it be seuēti times vij times thei must make deliuerāce But for close sinnes confession in sinketh not in my brayne In the eare so particuler for to be had so playne As to shew quo vbi quomodo quando For Dauid sayde to God peccaui for certayne And confitebor tibi in toto corde meo As concerning confession particuler There is no priuate Scripture nor yet auriculer Except the veterous antique shadowe olde Of the scape Gote with the sinnes vpon hir horne inrold But by sainct Iohn Baptist and Scripture much more Generall confession that is euident So should our Prelates by their office euermore Giue absolution vnto the men penitent And minister the Sacraments with good reformation To eschue from sinnes and to liue in amitie To loue God their neighbors and in their predication Declare how the lawe is grounded on charitie And as they remit others forgiuen shall they bée Instructing from debate rancor and detraction And if this auayle not then belongeth it properly To the power of iustice to correct by coaction Here may wée fetche the temporall iustification By the father commaunded to Noe to do equitie As death to haue death and for reformation Iuda would haue brent Thamar for incontinence And Moyses had lawes for debts and for felonie For lecherie and murther and things m● a multitude And after Iudges kings had the same authoritie For punishment of sinnes with the outwarde turpitude Some happily wil say this power was abrogate I confesse it and deny not vnto a man righteous There is no lawe giuen but for sinners intoxicate But inasmuch as the tares wold destroy the corne fructuous And many be called few chosen this power must be prosperous To correct al tyrannie by a brotherly zeale And there is no man liuing so perfect and vertuous But the olde Adam in his flesh sometime he will féele Though the gospel know no lawes but groūdeth on charitie Yet we may take in hande for the disobediente Which wil not reconcile them by humilitie To complayne to the iudge to make them to be shente And he to the Minister to giue the prefermente To put them irremediable into captiuitie Till they haue payed the last farthing this in not tegent But permitted by Chryst in Mathew we may sée Who layeth hand on the sword quod Christ vnto Peter Shall perish with the same and for the théeues crucified He gaue no rebuke and he sayd to the Minister If I haue saide ill recorde ill these words he specified To the Centurion souldiors was nothing notified Yet Chryst praysed his fayth and humble submission Saint Iohn to the souldiers these words modefied Be content with your wages and worke no oppression Thus it foloweth these men should be as vertuous As the other power should but for ministration By a brotherly zeale to correcte things tedious As murther rape theft felonie or treason Sin incest adulterie stuprum and fornication Extortion oppression simony and vsury And euery detestable outwarde abhomination As disceite periurie buggerie
