rootes in the earth it bryngeth forth frutes at the heate of the sunne but if it hath no rootes in the earth but in the ayer it wythereth awaye at the heate of the sunne Semblably a man if he hath the rootes of fayth and loue in Christe comyng to the auitre to the sacramentes of the churche and godly dutyes to hear Goddes worde to the reading of scriptures to prayer bringeth forth maruelous and wonderful frute and profyte But if his onely studye be for thynges apparteynyng to his owne selfe and is rooted in his owne loue in the ayre in the spyrite of arrogance alwaye about what so euer he goeth he wythereth more and more and is made worse and worse Hypocrytes therfore ar trees dygged vp ar drye trees ar fyrewoode but certesse the very trees that ar dygged vp bene also kindled the trees kindled ar also as the trees dygged vp For manyfest and open syners ar dygged vp and plucked awaye and rooted out from the grace of God and those Hypocrytes ar kindled with the fyre of the loue of them selfe of pryde of ambytyon of couetyse of pryuye or secrete luste or pleasure Thus al theyse Lorde God dysparsed thorough the vineyarde and heaped to gyther wil not suffre it to bring forthe frutes bicause the yonglynges and simple folke ar ceduced and ouerthrowen with theyr euil ensamples and exhortatiōs Rebuke thē therfore rebuke them roughly for that they ar styffe-necked rebuke thē with the swerde pestylence and hongre Thoroughe the reprofe of thy countenaunce shal they perysh and shal be caste out of the vineyarde the braunches shal be lyfted vp other vynes shal be put therto they shal growe and fructyfye they shal extend theyr ofspryng euen vnto the see and shal reache vnto the ryuer Why sleapest thou Lorde Aryse Lorde and Let thy power be shewed vpon the man of thy ryghte hande and vpō the sonne of man whome thou haste made sure for thyne owne selfe Comme Lorde do not thou tarye O God gyue thy iudgement to the Kinge and thy iustyce to the Kynges sonne For he is the man of thy ryght hande which sytteth at thy ryght hande But which is thy ryght hande For thou arte inuisyble and with out any body Where is then thy ryght or thy lefte hande Thy glory is thy ryght hāde Namely therfore of Christe was it spoken that he sytteth at thy ryght hande bicause he reioyseth in better felicite aboue al domynyon and power and strength and aboue euery name that is recyted not onely in this worlde but also in the worlde to comme And what is thy hande but thy power If thou then haste a ryght hāde why haste thou not lykewysse a lefte hand For power haste thou to punish and to gloryfye For the Lorde doth quicken and mortifye doth cōuey to hel and recarye doth bring lowe and exalte Powre therfore to punish is thy lefte hande powre to gloryfye is thy ryght hande Let thy hande therfore let thy powre comme vpon thy man of the right hande How so Hath not he had powre gyuen hym from the begynnyng For euen he sayde to his dyscyples Al powre in heauen and in earth is gyuē vnto me How canst thou then saye let thy hande comme vpon the man of the ryght hande Gyuen hym it is but it appeareth not bring to passe therfore that it maye appeare Beastely carnal men doth perceyue see how that thy seruauntes ar mocked despysed sclaundered and ar euermore in trouble and aduersyte and then do they saye Fayth is not true purueyaūce of God is ther none deceyued ar the Christians and so doe they blaspheme thy name To be breue they see proude men vnryghteous couetous blasphemers lecherous and vngracious men to go forwarde to haue no aduerse chaunce so that they saye Other ther is no God or elles he doth not regarde mortal mennes matters other els he is iniuste and vnequal Thou then haste powre and doste contynually exercyse thy iudgementes but they do not apeare alwaye and for that cause doth mē speake in thy despite and reproche Let thy hande therfore be made to apeare vpon the man of thy right hande Graunte hym iudgement that maye apeare Bidde hym exercyse the power that he hath in the syght of menne For thou haste ordeyned hym iudge of the quicke and the deade Let thy hāde therfore comme vpon hym Which hande the righte or the lefte hande Let thy lefte and also the ryght hand comme vpon hym The lefte vpon the euil the ryght hande vpon the good Let thy iudgement apeare and let thy mercye apeare that men maye leaue of cursynge and blasphemynge Doutlesse thy lefte hande is weaker than the ryght bycause thou doste execute iudgement with mercye and art lothe for to punishe But thy ryght hand is strōge for that thou art a large and a lyberal gyuer Thou openest thy hande euen thy ryght hāde and fyllest euery lyuing creature with blessing Let it come therfore vpō the mā of thy ryght hād Let thy left hāde be to punish the wicked that they maye be scourged and so conuerted And if they wil not be turned vnto the that they maye be cleane putte out of thy vineyarde and maye be punished in the fyre of hel for euer For why do they occupye the earth in vayne But let thy ryght hand be vpon the man of thy ryght hande to coneforte thy faythful that in a plenteous blessing they maye be fylled with the grace of the holy goste that the wal of the vineyarde maye be buylded vp to holde out them that passeth by the waye and not to suffre the boore of the woode and a syngular wylde beaste to entre in to the entente that the vinebraunches maye growe and bring forth frute Yea is it not trowe ye profytable that both thy handes also be vpon the man of thy ryght hande for thy faythful Yes vndoutedly For thy lefte hande thy hande holding the scourge thy hande that is wonte to stryke wil cause them to tary at the ryght hande For the rodde in the scholes kepeth the chylde in awe the wāde maketh hym to lerne For as yet are we yong chyldren bicause as longe as we ar in thys mortal lyffe we ar infantes we had nede of the rodde we ar fedde wyth mylke But when that shal cōme whyche is parfecte the prepertyes of a yonglyng shal we laye apart for al togyther thā shal the scourge leaue of Thy scourge therfore is good and holsome let thy scourge therfore comme let it comme soone let the powre quickly comme vpon the sonne of thy ryght hande that the goode maye be purged that the iust maye be made parfecte that the euil maye be expelled that the destroyers of the vineyarde maye perysh And vpon the sonne of man let the vinebraunches be

AN OTHER meditatiō of the same Hieronimus Sauanorola vpon the .lxxx. Psalme of Dauid Qui regis Israel intende Thou that haste Israel in thy gouernaunce thou that leadest Ioseph as he were a shepe haue regarde vnto vs. FOr as muche as we knowe thee Lorde by workes brought to passe thorowe thy power then do we say that thou art bente to dispose and ordre thinges when as thou doste brynge them to their ful ende and parfytnes Contrarywyse yf thou sufferest them to fall from their parfyt ende then do we playnly pronounce that thy gouernement is withdrawen Consideryng therfore howe that all the worlde is as touchynge true ghostly worshipping of thee in great daunger both bycause the moste parte lyeth in darcknes of mystrust or infidelitie or also bycause the faythful forte is almost holly corrupted so that now a dayes this maye be truely spoken They haue al swarued out of the right waye they are all become vnprofitable none there is that doth good no not so muche as one Flee to thee for so cour not doutyng but maruelynge humbly besechyng that thou wilt not be lyke as men whych when they are earnestly set on thinges that they loue wel they take no hede or very lytle vp on other whome they haue not in so great store Thou therfore O Lorde whiche arte ruler of Israel that is to saye of them that beholdeth the in lyfe euerlastyng to whose gouernaunce thou semest muche to gyue thy selfe take also regarde vnto oure ayde and mayntenaunce For in that heauenly region where as thy blysfull sayntes doth se thee after a maruelous ordre excedynge glorie of the inhabitauntes it appeareth vnto them as yf thou were so occupied in preseruynge and kepynge them that thou myghte be thought to haue vtterly forgotten vs amongest whome all thynges are troubled confoūded and putte out of ryght ordre For whiche cause we hertelye praye thee that haste dominion ouer heauen and earth in quyetnesse do not so attende onely to the blessed company there aboue that thou wilt leaue dysamayde and comfortlesse thy faythfull assembly here beneth Wherfore haue regarde vnto oure helpe and furtheraunce O Lorde that haste Israel in thy gouernaunce haue regarde good Lorde that leadest Ioseph euen lyke as a shepe is ledde For by Ioseph whiche betokeneth increase what is mente but thy faythfull and deuoute people Albeit a yonge forte of people whome thou begotte in thyne olde age that is in thys oure laste and unfortunable tyme whych abydeth haynous persewynges and reuengynges of hys bretherne and is nyrnamed of them a dreamer Thys Ioseph as he groweth from day to daye in more greuous combraūce and trouble so doest thou leade hym thorough fyre and water euen as a meke or gentle shepe vnto the shambles beyng continuallye tamed brought lowe so that by fetters and prisons he maye passe forth vnto that kyngdome and those pastures whiche are freshe and floryshyng for euer and euer Wherupon thou that in these wyse leadest lyke a shepe Ioseph arte mysdemed of the vnfaythful to passe nothynge of oure matters and therfore be present Lorde and redy to reliefe and defende vs that the wycked ianglers mouthes maye be stopped For we do not craue golde nor ryches nor yet prontotions of this worlde but we couet thy lyght we earnestly desyre to knowe thee Thou that syttest vpon Cherubim be opened and sette before the eyes of Ephraim Beniamin and Manasse Therubim betokeneth plenteousnesse of knowledge Ephraim bringynge for the frute Beniamin the sonne of thy ryghte hande Manasse forgytfulnesse Thou therfore that syttest and arte at reste in thy selfe frō eche worke that thou haste ordeyned and arte fastened in the seate of thy euerlastynge mansyon and doest cōtinue in the heyghte of thy Maiesties trone as the Kynge as the Lorde as the Iudge and mayster of all thou I saye that syttest vpon Therubim that is vpon the plenteousnes of knowlege farre surmountynge and passyng all knowledge and all vnderstanding for that thou arte vndoutedly a secrete God and vnsearcheable be opened and appeare I beseche thee hartelye vnto Ephraim that is to saye vnto thy people whyche nowe bryngeth for the frute to thy honoure so that they maye knowe the fully and parfectlye For who so knoweth thee he loueth thee he forgetteth his owne selfe he loueth thee better then hymselfe and dothe wonderfully profyte the congregacion Be reueyled also afore Beniamin that is afore all thy chosen and marked forte abydynge here or elles where whyche no doute euen for thy verye choyse and appoyntement are made worthye to be called the chyldren of thy ryghte hande so that thy people maye encrease and that thy chyldreu sparsed abrode maye comme together and that there maye be one shepe house and one shepeherde Open thy selfe also to Manasse to all the Infidelles whome thou semest to haue caste out of remembraūce bycause they haue forgotten thee for so muche as thou haste so longe wythdrawen from them the foode of lyfe Shewe thy selfe at the laste vnto all the worlde that menne may comme out of darkenes and the shadowe of deathe into lyghte and maye sette strayghte theyr steppes into the waye of peace But yf the stubbourne secte wyll vnnethes be amended and yf the nombre of those fooles be excedyng great Rayse vp thy power and come that thou mayest make vs safe Lo the ryche oppresseth the poore the rulers despoyleth the symple flocke the vngodlye perseweth the ryghteous wythout anye petie thy faythfull fyndeth fewe fatherlye helpers they haue no maynteyners Full manye a one alasse is drawne to hell thorough the euell ensamples of priestes and the cleargye whyche is cleane wythout hope of recouerye towarde amendement There are a passynge meany of noysome Phariseis a great rable of harmefull hypocrites wyth whose poysoned exhortacions and lessons the whole worlde is infected They wyll not heare the wordes of trouthe no man maye correct them wherby thy faythfull dare not ones lyfte vp theyr heade What doest thou O Lorde Why sleapest thou Wherfore doest thou wytholde thy myght Styrre vp thy power I humblye beseche thee and comme Thou that arte euery where wyth thy scourges and wyth thy strength stryke these false and myschieuous deprauers of thy worde destroye these craftye and malicious accusers of thy seruauntes condempne these obstinate and deuelyshe despysers of thy grace I do not saye thys I do not wyshe it I do not aske thys as and I were delyted to se them punyshed but that thou maye saue vs thyne elected and chosen seruyng thee continually louynge thee aboue all these thynges euermore obeynge thy decrees and commaundementes Thou aunswerest me perchaunce in thys wyse Yt I shall caste in my swearde of vengeaunce yf I shall sende pestilence amonge them yf I shall pyne them wyth honger thynkest thou then that thou thy selfe canst continue in so muche and so greuous trouble O good God do thou turne vs and shewe vs thy face and we shal then be in sauegarde
