worse then turkes for ther is a bryeff as they call it carted about of paulus the .iii. vnto themperour and king of the Romains in the which the very same thing is affirmed so that who soeuer doeth consider this oratioÌ„ shall easily presaeue that that also was made bi the same cardinall The Soules which ar taken out of the lappe and tyranye of the popysh church and restoryd vnto the trew church of Cryst such as ar all they whome thou falsly callest Turkes can be in no maner of perill and danger of Saluation but all such ar in great danger the whiche agre and consent with the popysh sect in so much that all hope of rheir saluation is past except thei be drawen a way froÌ„ thence by the myghty power of god Thou callest the preching of the gospell a great myschief by cause you feare that the power and existimation of your popes shuld be theirby be dymynyshed for as touching the Saluation or perdytion of Soules what doth that partain vnto you Art thou not ashamid to call the most noble kinges of england deÌ„marke and gothia and so manye famous princes of germani both for their byrth auctoryty god lynes so many consulles and rulers of the free cytyes and fynali so many good and learnyd men seruantes of Iesus Chryst and mynisters of the gospel new turkes only vpon this occasion bycause they hauiÌ„g reseauid y t pure knowledg and vnderstandinge of the word of God haue forsakeÌ„ all your superstitions and idolatrys doth the truthe and charytye of the SoÌ„ne of god which thou faygnest to be so abundant in thy hart that thou canste not lay it awa teach or persuade the herunto Christ lefte none to be the head of the churche but only hym self vnto whome onely we most sticke and cleaue vtterli reiecte refuse this your fained hed thee pope Albeit thou haddest nat expressid it thy selfe who dyd not plainly se that all those opprobryes and tauntes which in thy rage and madnes thou hast obiectid and cast against the king of england to redounde also to the great ignomyny and shame of the most noble princes of germany the whiche also with him haue withe drawen them selues from the yoke and obedience of thee popes notwithe standinge thou like a most modest and sober Cardinall euen of thaboundance of thy hart woldest also by name taunt and teare this coÌ„trey of germany darest thou be so bold to afirme the holy gospell of Iesu Chryst the which we preach teach in our churches to be the adulterous and pestiferous turkish sede do you thinke that we haue so much for sakeÌ„ cast awai the catholike veriti yf these thiÌ„ges be treue which thou doest falsli affirme then truli the apostles al y e primitiue church had not the catholyke fayth but that pestiferous and adulterous sede Art thou not ashamed to affirme and fett these thinges in thy bokes and wheras thou-saist thou doest hope that this nation wyll abiect and cast of the pure and syncere doctrine of thee gospell and retorne again vnto your coruption and ydolatry thou art muche deceauid or that I think rather trew you do but fain your self so to beleue or thinke I do verely graunt that it is the turkysh maner to answer with the swerd against all such as speke in y e name of chryst I do verely grauÌ„t acknowledge that their secte and relygyonis therby agmentyd and incresid but I pray you see how prudent an orator you ar to propoun this mater in your oration seing thee pope hym self doth dayly answer the children of God and such as do professe christ with y e sword galows fyer you your self in your oration go about nothinge els then to moue or styre themperour to warts and to shede the blode of good and holy men haue you not wisely declared herin y e pope to play a ryght turkes parte and you yourself to haue a turkish mynd or stomak The lyk wordes and to the same veri effect we haue Red in the bryeff which I spake of before So that now we do nott dowbt but that you did also sett forth that most cruell sentence the which we once suposid to haue bene done by Cardinall Ceruimus when he was embassador with themperour as tutor of Cardinall farnesius but in the maene tyme thou doest pretend and shew forth such a modesty in those thy foure bokes in thee whiche thou doest bost thye selfe to abhorre all contentions neuer to haue bene at controuersy withe any man and to haue the loue Charity of God abondantly in thy mynd the which thing in dede many haue often supposid thought to be in you but ther is nothinge hiden whiche shall not be opened for thou hast betraied thy self hast vttrid that which thow hast long kept secrct in thy mynd Do you not thus reason that bycause thee turkish emperour doth much regarde the monkes therfore they do truly worshipp God and Christ It is most comely and mete for you to iudge vse thauctority of that tyrant as most holye whose example of cruelty against the Children of God you do not only folow but far surmount Noman doth beleue the that Moore was put to death for his silence for so much as it is euedent that he was punished for a seditioÌ„ or coÌ„spirasi raysed bi him but thou veryli art ouerslanderous a person thorough this thy hole boke against the king vnto whom thou art not only ioyned by affinyti or kynred but also dydest confesse thy self most bounden who also was ordeined to be thi prince and hed by god but thou saiest thou woldest correct his errours and vices Admytt that they were vices which had bene comeli for the to correcte where I praie you haue you learnid that they ough to be correctid with such slanderous fierse wordes as is in your booke printyd at Rome y t which not onley this present age but also y e posterity to come shalrede wold you haue done this thing yf that you had the charyty and loue of God so aboundantly shut vp enclosed in your hart or mynd We knowe well ynough that you call the. Cartuslans those most holy and religioê° monkes the whiche had enbrased a most diuerse and contrary order from the gospel of Christ and most contaminate and defyled with false kind of worshippings and went about with to the and naill to defend and kepe the same and therfore styrred the people to rebellion against their kinge Thow now goest about to teach and persuade that the sect of the turkes is sprong and Rysen the which wold owerthrow the churche by the refusall and deniall of your head of Rome but harken again what our iugment is here in verely that your worthy head was the cause that Mahomet could not only plant that this most fylthy and wile sect but also bring it to such eficasitie and
as you se so many thousands of christians opressed with y e most vile hard seruitude bondage of the turkes you do thinke yt a worthy notable act to deliuer them and to restore theim vnto liberti the whiche in dede is no lesse theÌ„ prayse worthy but yf you couÌ„t this so laudable a thyng how much more glorioê° praise worthy wer yt to redeme releas so many thousaÌ„ds of soules beyng euen in present perill and danger beyng also violeÌ„tly rapt and taken away out of the lappe or bosome of the church and eueÌ„ now brought into great doubt danger of saluation and to restore y e same again vnto y e church fayth of Chryst such is y e perill whiche is iminent and hangyng ouer our heades y e enemy also whiche goethe about and hath brought a great part of the same to passe is suche a one as thou canst not excuse thy selfe o Cesar but to vnderstand and know the same The which thyng as it is most laudable so dothe it also apere most necessari fyrst to prouide and seke remedy for this myschief whiche is now spronge growyng vpon vs before thou prouyde or seke for the lyberty of the body verely yt is so much the more necessary that except you imediatly resiste and with stand this myschief all that you now go about is but in vayn although you shuld subdew all asai expulsing the turkes frome thence you shuld retourne a conquerer I pray you what shal you then haue profited wheÌ„ in place of them whome you haue expulsid out of asia new turkes be rysen and sprong vp amongst vs at home for what other thing ar the turkes then a certain secte of christians which in tyme paste haue shrounk and gone a way from the catholyke church Nether do thee turkes hate or abhorre the name of Christ or reiect his gospell but as the arrianes dyd in times past thei take awai that dignity from Christ that he shulde bee thee sonne of God with many other thinges which they haue taken of the arrianes how beit thy affirme christ to be a great prophet and also owe no small reuerence vnto his mother mary The orygynall and begynyng of the turkes relygion is all one withe all other heresyes They wer the first which weÌ„t away froÌ„ y e church forsaking and denienge him to be the hed whiche was ordeined and left by Christ and so by lytle lytle they vterly declined swarued from the doctrine of Christ what shuld I say more do you you not see how largley abouÌ„dantly this turkish sede is spred and sowen amoÌ„gest vs. I wold to god yt wer so small that you could not perceaue yt But you haue sene that which is greatly to be sorouid euen in your owen coÌ„try of germany but as yet ther is not y e playn turkish sede because it is not yet sowen or sprede nether by publyque auctority nether yet by commaundement of any one which hath rule or power ouer others to compell them vnto yt and ther fore it is not vterly to be despaired but that y e trewe germaÌ„ church of the germanes hauiÌ„g oppressid this adulterous noughty sede may florish and spring again and bring forthe y e trew abouÌ„dant fruits of the catholike fayth So likewise in EnglaÌ„d wher as in tyme past trew religioÌ„ did also florish now is this sede so sowen and strengthened by thaÌ„ctorytuy of one man that it can starsly be discernid froÌ„ the turkish sede and to thin teÌ„t that that which is alredi soweÌ„ shuld haue the better encrese it is defended withe the sword and with the sword they answer all that is obiectid against yt and this is the very turkyshe maner thê° their sect doth in crese and grow But in this point it doth differ from the turkes for so much as the turks sect doth compell no man vnto ther opinioÌ„ for he that doth not impugne there religion although he be of a clene coÌ„trary opinion he maye liue in safety amongst them and they do also much reuerence and honor good men although thei be of coÌ„trary religion The which thing the greke monkes which inhabyte the mont Athusdo wytnes to be trew whom the turkysh emperour him self doth much sette by in so much that he doth often send such as haue offendyd vnto them that they shulde praye for them and comend them in ther prayers vnto almyghty God vnto whome he beleuyth y e ar most dearlye beloued and in Fauour No man truly vnder all his hole emprye or dominioÌ„ and of what secte soeuer he bee yf he kepe his tonge is in any maner of peril or daunger But wher as this new and pestiferous sede is now ther is no lesse punyshement or daÌ„ger for them that kepe sylence theÌ„ for suche as moste in pugne and striue against them behold Thomas Moore who alone in vertue Learnyng dyd chieflye excel he was put to death for

whan thes goodly begynyngs this violence and cruelti whiche is exercised against holy men doth sufficntly shew what peryll and danger is rysen to the church by denieng and refusing the heade of the church Ye the turkes them selues against whome thou doest prepare warres may be an exaÌ„ple for the the which hauing this path or way opened vnto them haue attemptid to oppresse and ouerthorw the
