in Purgatory heauen and hell I raygne as a moste tryumphāt Empresse So that to them that in those places do dwell My vertue dothe extend bothe more and les What shall I speake of my beneficence Toward the soules of them that be mortall To saue their soules I am of great excellence When soeuer on me they earnestly call My Chaplens thorow me offer dayly For all such as with mony do them hyre An holy sacrifice propiciatory And so deliuer their soules out of the myre The synnes of the whole worlde thorow me Are clerely remitted and put awaye My mighty power is to make them all fre Which for remission of synnes mony do paye Whatsoeuer synne is committed Be it pryde whordome thefte or blasphemy By me it is vtterly dispatched And the synners made bothe pure and holy For clensyng of the soule noman dothe nede To seke after any other Phisicion Be that liste vnto me for to make spede Shall haue of me a sufficient purgacion As men dayly do greuously offend So muste they haue a dayly sacrifice To be rydde of your synnes if ye entend To haste vnto me ye muste nedes deuice For in me my marked marchauntes eche on● Offer vp Christ the sonne of God dayly They crucifye hym agayne though he be go●● And offer a sacrifice Propiciatory And the sacrifice that they do offer Is of so greate efficacie mighte and poure As that whiche Christ offered to hys father Whan he hanged on the Crosse at the laste houre● By Christes death the synne originall Was onely put awaye as many holde But I dispatche all synnes vniuersall As witnesse my Chaplens bothe stoute and bolde Folish are they therfore that take thought for sy● As though it were a burden intollerable ●eyng for a litle money they maye wynne Forgyuenes of synnes and become vnculpable When the masse begyues they maye be synnefull But before the masse be perfectly ended My smered Chaplens all synne frō them shall pul And make them to be thorowly saued For the blessed masse is not so sone sayde Of the massinge Chaplens at the altare But all the debtes for synnes are wholy payde And they brought agayne to Gods fauer Thus in heauen earthe hell and Purgatory I rayg●e as a moste triumphant Goddesse All thinges are blessed by me and made wealthy Deliuered from sorowe and all discresse Agayne what a number of idle bellyde priestes Besydes monkes heremites Chanons and fryers Do I fede to be makers of Christes Whiche otherwise shoulde fall into the bryers I make them to be hadde in reputatcion I make them to sitte hyest at the table I make them to be called Syrs euery one I make them worshipfull and honorable I make them in their apparell to be Galaunte and pleasaunte in euery mans syghte I make them greatest in euery degre I make them makers of God almighty I make them to walke in goodly longe gounes With typpet●es of sarcenet about their neckes I make them to weare forked cappes on their shauē crounes I make thē to do what they list without checkes I make them of the labour of other mens hādes To liue idely lyke men of great substaunce I enryche them with gaye houses and landes I make them to lyue all in pleasance I make them in loue with other mens wyues I make their chyldren to syt by other mens fyres I make them to lede pleasaunte wealthy lyues Euen according to their hartye despres I make them searchers of all mens secretes Thorow holy auriculare confession I make them to playe many praty feates And yet fewe spye their abhominacion By me alone they mayntayne their whoring Their horses their hauckes their hondes their spānels By me alone haue they their pleasaūt liuing Bunning here and there or where they list els I make the order of priesthoode honorable I onely am the s●aye of all massemongers It is I that make the masse priestes able To matche with the best and to be called masters If I were not thei should haue many euel happes If I were not their gouns should sone be threde bare If I were not their hayre should grow thorow their carpes If were not they should haue bothe carcke care I wolde therfore that noman should maruel Though massingpriestes do stoutly holde with me For they are certen and do know right well That the best floure of their garlande I must be Therefore whan ye heare thē loude lye at Paules crosse As many in their sermōs haue done of late Blame them not for they haue had a longlosse Therfore it is now hye tyme for them to prate Masses Purgatory and prayeng for the dead Are the chief pyllers of their popish kyngdome If these thre thinges were once abrogated Then come they streyghtwayes vnto confusion I woldē therfore that my chaplens shoulde prate harde For these thre thinges aboue all other Or els their kyngdome shall neuer go forewarde By swete sainct Mary Christes owne mother For holy auriculare confession I wolde haue them also prate harde harde harde For if they haue not that popish inuencion Their market will be altogether marde By that they shall know all mens secrety By that they shall syt as Goddes in mens consciēce By that they shall bring the people wonderfully Into all submission and obedience By that they shall make Lordes to thē for to lout● Ladys and gentlemen shall they bring vnder By that as Gods they shall raygne rounde aboute And know where stuffe is against the next yeare Thus haue I tolde you parte of my vertues And what I am able to do in euery place I suppose ye thincke them very straunge newes Yet shall ye fynde them trew by oure Lady of gracē My massing chaplens and the massehunters Know these thinges too be trew that I haue spoken Their diligent cōming to the masse euers Is hereof a very manifest token Oh somtime here in England gloriously I raygned as a Goddesse supernal Tyll Gods worde in the time of kyng Henry Began to be knowne in places ouer all Thorow the scripture and other treatises With the sermons of diuers learned menne To be espied began my fantasies So that many to me did not greatly leane Yet thorow the s●outenes of some prelates Which euer loued me for my fathers sake I styl continued among my pyldepates And the moste parte of men did me wel take Notwithstanding my people religious As monkes chanons heremites nonnes and fryers Began among the people to be odious And were called hypocrites and lyers Their hypocrisye and fayned holynes Came to lighte euery daye more and more Their vnchaste chastitie also certes Made all good people them to abhorre Their abhominable lyfe was so manifest Besydes all their wicked Idolatrie That all godly men together thought it best All their houses to suppresse vtterly Suppreste they were vnto my great discomforte And bothe the I and they at the doores thruste out Few had we then that wolde vs supporte So were we compelled
