were it that after so many threats warnings from heauen from earth from God from men from their foes abroad and their frinds at home they should not yet once not once descend into a dutifull consideration of this their heauy trespasse and so with a speedy industrie and assiduitie reenter and recouer those their forsaken charges which a long while haue languished and worne awaie for want of pasture and ly now the deer lambs of Christ Iesus stretched on the ground for faintnes fetching their groanes deepe and their pantes thicke as readie to giue ouer and to yeelde vp the Ghost O Lord are not thine eies vpon the truth Ierem. 5.3 thou hast striken these men but they haue not sorrowed thou hast consumed them but they haue refused to receiue correctiō they haue made their faces harder thā a stone haue refused to return Not the losses and vnsupportable calamities of Christs people not the miserable apostasie grieuous falling awaie woe to vs therefore of multitudes of the ignorant and vnlettered men from the Apostolicke faith and the Church of Christ not the certaine daungers and hazards of their owne persons Wiues Children and Kinsfolkes with all which rods of his fatherly chastisement God hath latelie in his iustice tempered with surpassing mercy visited them can awake or rouze them out of that dead and deadlie slumber wherby they haue as much as in them lieth betraied to the powers and forces of Satan Gods sacred enheritance and laid open the precious flock of Christ to the mouthes and teeth of Woolues But would God the burden of this sin rested onelie on the neckes of these rechlesse persons whose extreme barbaritie yet in letting through their profane absence their harmlesse sheepe to drop awaie by famine of the word hath raised a louder cried and clamour against them in the eares of God than any we are able to make by our most iust cōplaint in the eares of men Another swarme of Caterpillers there are the very trash and rifraffe of our nation who deeming it a more easie life to say seruice in the church than do seruice in the house and to stand at the altar of God than to followe the plough of their Master haue like men of idle dissolute quality only moued thereto in a lazie speculation laide their wicked sacrilegious hands on the Lords Arke vnreuerently entred with shooes and all into his Temple taken his vndefiled Testimonies in their defiled mouthes disgraced defaced and diffamed the glorie maiesty of diuine rites and mysteries through their beggarly entring into base demeaning thēselues in so high an office Gape not these men trow you for new miracles to rain out of heauen As if Christ must needs for their sakes lay the foundation of his Church again cal again from the net the receit of custom and other trades of this world such as hee would dispatch abroad for this holy Message that so these artisans might be inuested with Apostleships Doctorships and the rooms of Prophets as ready men after a nights sleepe or an hours trance to turn the book of God menage the keies of Heauen But my frind be not deceiued awake out of sleep dream no more Zach. 13. ●… Thou art no Prophet thou art an husbandman taught to be an heardman from thy youth vp Get away therefore with speed from the Lords house if thou be a cleauer to thy wedge and ax if a hind to thy Masters plough but meddle not with Gods affaires least he break out vpon thee and destroy thee But in vain spend I words to brasse and Iron who though the Lord hath held in his hand for a long time the ful viol of his wrath and is now wearie with holding it any longer and about to poure it out vpon them for this their horrible transgression yet staggar they not a whit at it but run on like hūgry cōpanions with an eie only to the flesh pots and so sel both themselues their people for a morsel of bread a messe of pottage to the diuel Shal I not visit for these things saith the Lord Ierem. 9. ●… Or shal not my soule be auenged on such a nation as this Yes doubtlesse hee who is able to muster the cloudes and winds and to fight with heauenly powers against vs shal and wil if wee leaue not off to make such hauok of his children be auenged on vs he shal raise vp the standard and make the trumpet blow nether shal suffer the sight of the one to passe our eies nor the soūd of the other to forsake our ears vntil destruction come vpon destruction death vpon death plague vpon famine and sword vpon both to the vtter ouerthrow both of our selues Country perpetually Nay rather O God if there bee any place for mercy and why should wee doubt of mercy with thee the God of mercy looke not vpon this drosse and filth wherewith thy holy house hath bin polluted but sweep them out but looke O Lorde with thy tender eie of compassion vppon thy silly people for what haue they done and stirre them vp daiely for Pastors and Prophetes wise and skilfull men whose lips may keepe knowledge and whose hands may break vnto them the bread of life Now that this may haue a more mature happy successe I am humbly to beseech and solicite if so this my simple work come vnto their hands the Reuerend Fathers of this Land to whom I acknowledge al duty submission in the Lord whom with al reuerence I solicit in this the Lords cause that if their authority be not able to stretch so far as to the throwing out of these dum deafe and blind watch-men out of Gods tabernacle into which they haue been shuffled against manie of their Honors wils by those accursed Simoniacal Patrons who haue sodred simoned the wals of their houses with the verie bloud of soules yet it may please their wisedoms to constraine and compell these wheresoeuer they shal find them in any of their Dioceses to the reading and diligent studying of those books which their owne country-men moued with mere pittie towardes them and their flocks haue painfully deliuered vnto them in a tongue familiar and common to them all And if it shal seeme so good and expedient to their Honours to adioine these my labours vnto the paines and trauels of many the seruants of God who haue with great praise endeuored in the like matter on the like respects heretofore I make no doubt but that out of this short yet ful Summe of Christian Religion God adding his blessing thereunto they may in short time receiue such furniture and instruction as they shal saue both themselues and others who both else are in case to perish euerlastingly But if their feete wil walke on in the way of blindnes and themselues refuse to come out of the darknes of ignorance into the bright light of Gods knowledge
