Disguising and Mumming that is used in Christmas time in the North parts came out of the Feast of Pallas that were done with Vizors and painted Visages named Quinquatria of the Romans CHAP. III. The manner of anointing Priests Kings them that be Christned confirmed of sore sick WHen Moses had builded the Tabernacle he was commanded to make a confection of holy Ointment wherewith both the Work the Vessels Priests and also Kings which be called to that office or dignity ought to be anointed so that it came to passe that the anointing was the very token and difference whereby Kings were known among the Hebrews as the Emperours in Rome were known by their Purple Roabs Aaron and his Sons were the first anointed Priests and Samuel anointed Saul first King over Israel and so consequently it grew into a custome that Priests and Kings were anointed By which thing is signified that they be specially favoured of God and like as Oyl lyeth aloft on the water or other Liquor so the office of a Priest and dignity of a Prince surmounteth all other degrees of Ministers both in the active and also contemplative life Silvester Bishop of Rome ordained first that all that were Christned Churches and Chalices should be annointed with Oyl Our oyl that is now used is made of Oyl Olive and natural Balm Fabianus commanded that it should be renewed every Munday and Thursday Clement the first ordained that all Children and other that were Christned should be anointed again with Crisme and he instituted also the Sacrament of Confirmation supposing that no man were a perfect Christian if that Rite and Ceremony were by negligence omitted For this cause that the Holy Ghost might more plentifully be given to them by the hands of the Bishop This thing began of the example of the Apostles which sent Peter and John into Samaria to lay their hands on them that they might receive the Holy Ghost It is onely ministred by a Bishop in this wise first he asketh the name of the child and then maketh the sign of the Crosse in the forehead with the Chrisme saying I sign thee with the token of the Crosse and confirm thee with the Crisme of Salvation In the name of the Father the Son and the Holy Ghost that thou may be reple●ished with the Holy Spirit and have everlasting life So 〈◊〉 And then he smiteth the cheek of 〈◊〉 Child softly but if he be of a great age he giveth a sharp stroke that he may remember that mystery saying Peace 〈◊〉 with thee Felix the fourth did institute That such as were in extreams should be anointed following the example of the Apostles which as Mark wi●nesseth cured many diseases by anointing them and S. James speaketh of a like thing in his Epistle CHAP. IV. The beginning of Marriage of Priests when it was forbidden with other Laws touching Marriage MOses the Minister of God among the Israelites which were desirous to augment and amplifie their issue ordained that all men indifferen●ly as well Priests as Lay-people should take wives lest the debarring them from matrimony might be occasion of greater enormity and inconvenience among them Albeit because of the dignity of the ordet of Priesthood he made restraint that they should marry none that was taken prisoner bond-woman or divorced from their former husband and the Bishops might not be married but to Maids As concerning our Priesthood Sylvester the first after the Text of S. Paul commanded that a Priest should marry but one wife and after to live sole alone as Paul had a wife as may appear in his Epistles to the Philipians and Corinthians And Clement Bishop of Alexandria and Ignatius which was in Paul's time witnesse the same Peter and Philip had wifes and daughters whom they bestowed honestly in marriage to husbands And S. Peter seeing his Wife led to death for the profession of Christ with great joy of her constancy said Wife remember the Lord. This order the Greeks and all the East parts of Christendome do use which would not consent to the Councel of Neece wherein it was propounded That the Priests should forsake their Wives and namely Paphnutius the holy and chaste Bishop that came out of the borders of Egypt withstood that Decree very earnestly Stiricius the first forbade the Priests of the West parties and Deacons to marry the year of our Lord 337. He instituted also That he that either wedded a Widow or took a second wife could not be made Priest Pelagius the second enforced the Sub-deacons to forsake their wifes And Gregorius because he thought it violent to divorce them ordained That from his time none should be Sub-deacon unlesse he vowed Chastity before Notwithstanding the Lawes before made took no effect among the Priests of the West parts untill the time of Gregory the seventh which was the year of our Lord 1074. And here Polidore protesteth That the single life of Priests doth more harm to the Religion shame to the Order and grief to honest men then their constrained chastity profieth If they were restored to the liberty and choice it were no prejudice to the Christian Common-wealth and honesty for the Order In the beginning men married their sisters and kinswomen but Moses restrained them of the Hebrews from the first and second degrees and Fabianus forbade the third and fourth which Custome standeth now in effect Theodorus did inhibit first That a
man might not marry that Maid to whom his father was a God-father It was confirmed first by Gregory and after by Alexander the third That no man should marry his brother's wife lest it should be thought to be a counterfeit of the Hebrews Lanuch was the first that ever had two wives whose example many others ensued afterwards The custome of purifying of women was taken of the Hebrews but there is no day or time appointed for it Nevertheless for an honest order they use commonly not to be purified before the moneth day and then with a few honest Matrons she cometh accompanied to the Church and offereth a wax Taper and the Chrisome CHAP. V. Of the Temples Church-yards when the Crosse was first had in reverence IN the Old Testament Moses set up a Tabernacle curiously edified to God wherein Supplication and Intercession was made to him for the 〈◊〉 of the people And in that he made the Ark of Covenant in the which he put the two Tables of stone containing the Law of the Ten Commandements Aaron's rod and the pot of Manna After him Solomon King of the Hebrews made at Hierusalem ● Temple of costly array and sumptuously wrought I cannot to say truth perfectly tell where the first Church of Christians was builded but by all conjecture it seemeth that it was made of the Apostles either in Ethiopia where Matthew preached or in Lower India where Bartholomew taught or in Scythia where Andrew shewed the Word of God Where they doubtlesse either cause new Churches to be edified or else transposed the Idol's Temples to serve the Christians use abolishing Superstition and planting the true Religion of Christ Albeit it were not against reason to suppose there was a Temple or house of prayer appointed by James at Jerusalem In Rome the first that I read of was consecrated by Pius Bishop of Rome in the street called Patricius at Novatus Baths in honour of the Virgin Prudentia at the request and suit of Praredis her sister And after Calistus made a Temple to the Virgin Mary in a place beyond Tiberis and instituted a Church-yard in Apius's street and called it after his own name But Abraham was the first that made any place of burial in Hebron where he bought of Ephron an Hittite the double Cave for 300 shekels of silver with the the ground about it and there was Sarah his wife and he himself buried Noah builded the first Altar and offered upon it a burned Sacrifice to the Lord. And Bonifacius the third caused that they were covered with linnen cloaths Constantinus when he had won the battail against Maxentius by reason of a vision that he saw of the crosse the day of the battle ordained that from thenceforth no man should suffer death on the crosse And so in processe of time it was had in much reverence and worship And Theodosius made a law That there should no Image of the crosse be graven in stone marble or in earth lest men should tread on it Hellen Constantine's Mother a very vertuous woman repaired to Jerusalem to seek the Crosse of our Lord where with great labour and diligence she fouud it and with it the other two whereon the Theeves were hanged but it was ease to perceive Christ's Crosse by the Title which then did remain albeit sore wasted and corrupted with Antiquity CHAP. VI. Of the ancient rite or sacrificing Feast-dayes dedicating Temples the mystery of Fire Holy Water CAin and Abel the two sons of our first Father Adam offered in sacrifice to God the first fruits of their goods Abel his oblation was a Lamb Cain his gift was Corn. Afterward when the Priesthood was ordained Aaron and his sons offered divers things with sundry Ceremonies which he shewed at large in the book of Leviticus The Gentiles almost all sacrificed to the Idols men or women after sundry rites as appeareth in the Histories of Gentile-Authors And if it fortuned that they omitted any such abominable idolatry they had great punishment destruction of their fruit corruption of their water infection of the Ayr death of Cattel great droughts women had evil deliverance with many such plagues as Dionysius Halicarnasseus witnesseth which the spirits of the ayr procured to delude and seduce men and confirm them in their errour The holy-dayes among the Jews were divers as the Sabbath-day the Feast of the new Moon the Passeover the Feast of unleavened bread Pentecost the Feast of Tabernacles the Dedication day which be all shewed largely in the Old Testament The use of dedicating Churches is of great antiquity for Moses did sanctifie the Tabernacle and Solomon consecrated the Temple that he builded at Jerusalem And Esdras after when they returned from the Captivity of Babylon hallowed the Temple new again Of them we receive our Rite of hallowing of Churches albeit we have more ceremonies then they had Fire was kept continually on the Altar by the Priests for without it and salt could no sacrifice be duly made or ordinarily offered and we in our Masses have ever a Taper of Wax burning And the Emperours of Rome had Fire born before them and the Vestals had ever perpetual Fire in the Temple where they served Vesta The spirits of the ayr that gave doubtfull answers to them that enquired any question of them were at the coming of Christ all destroyed For when he was carried into Egypt which is a Country full of superstition and Idolatry all the Idols of that Region were overthrown and fell to the ground at his coming thither And in the time of Adrian the Emperour both the wicked sacrifices were abolished and also the Oracles of Apollo at Delphos Jupiter-Hammon in Egypt with like vanities were subverted by the power of God through his Son Jesus Christ Holy Water was ordained by Alexander the first to be consecrated to drive away Spirits and was commanded that it should be kept as well in Churches as in private houses for the same use whereof are grown among the common people many superstitious errours contrary to the Word of God CHAP. VII Who ordayned Praying Why we look Eastward Ministring the Sacrament of the Altar FOrasmuch as we are created of God after his own Image for the intent to honour and serve him and so finally to enjoy the eternal inheritance of Heaven which we must attain to by Prayer acknowledging our own infirmities and referring us to the mercy of our most loving Father It shall therefore be convenient to declare the institution of Prayer Prayer therefore was from the beginning as Abel prayed Noah Abraham Isaac Jacob with other Patriarks prayed to God in all their doubtfull affairs and gave thanks for the good atchieving of them Moses and Aaron with other as Anna the wife of Helcanah shewed us an example of Prayer But Christ is the first that did shew us any special form of Prayer as appeareth in the Gospell of Matthew
