into the water to swimme and albeit he was exceeding skilfull in that quality yet by the diuine permission hee sunk and drowned But being afterward fished for and found by his friends companions a due inquisition being made of the body there was nothing found wāting but his accursed tongue only wherwith he had so often blasphemed his maker But why stray I thus after miracles imposed as diuine chastisemēts vpon blasphemers whereof an infinite number might be produced If your Honor would see whole beadroles of authentical cases in this kind read but the Garden of Examples composed by the reuerend father Master S●rafino Razzi of the Preachers order in the city of Florence But let it suffice that this sin is so abheminable in the sight of God as euen in this life hee many times doth beginne to punish it Claudio Very worthily ought the punishment to begin in good time and to endure much longer then any of the other because if the penalty should be conformable to the offence as there is no fault that lasteth longer then blasphemy so ought the inflicted pain to be correspondent which must needs stretch further then the allotment to other sins for blasphemy outgoeth time and continueth eternally Lodouico Doth blasphemy then endure for euer Claudio It is a common opinion among the reuerend diuines That as charity is the cheefest vertue most perfect and maiesticall because it onely remaineth eternally all the other vertues seuerally hauing an end but yet answerable to their seuerall actions So blasphemy is the very worst of all sins whatsoeuer not only because it is committed in this life but also in regard it liueth for euer in hel as an eternall exercise for the damned other sins hauing also according to their action an end and period Therfore sayth Saint Iohn in his Apocalyps Blasphemaueruut Deum coeli prae doloribus vulneribus suis They blasphemed the God of heauen for their paines for their sores And the Angelicall Doctor in his 2. 2. q 13. art 4. vseth these formall speeches Et credibile est quod post resurrectionem erit in eis etiam vocalis blasphemia sicut in Sāctis vocalis laus Dei That as in heauen the Saints with cheerefull voyces shall praise the lord so is it most certaine that the damned with horrible voyces shall blaspheme him Lodouico The sinne of blasphemy then continuing longer then the other sinnes we may by good reason make this addition thereto Because the sin by how much it lasteth so much the greater is his extent blasphemy going beyond all must needes be sayd to be more greeuous then them all As contrarywise by how much vertue continueth so much the more noble it is So charity ought to be esteemed the worthiest among all vertues because it is that which is eternally ioyned with God and neuer hath ending whereuppon the Apostle sayeth Nunc autem manent fides spes charitas tria haec maior autem horum est charitas And now abideth faith hope and charity euen these three but the cheefest of these is charity Claudio If a man may be knowne by his speech of what quality he is according to the opinion of Socrates And if by the language he speakes may also be gathered of what nation he is as whether he be an Italian Spanyard Germane French English Greek or Hebrew as Peter was known by his speech Galilaeus es nam loquela tua manifestum te facit Thou also art a Galilean for euen thy speech bewrayeth thee VVhy then when we perceiue a man to be addicted to blasphemy in such manner as by frequent vse in his speaking he will iestingly both sweare and blaspheme we may iustly say of him This man is of the prouince belonging to the kingdome of hell because his diuelish language dooth manifestly accuse him Ipsi de mundo sunt ideo de mundo loquuntur They are of the worlde therefore speake they according to the worlde So sayde Christ to his disciples as if hee woulde haue further added in this manner The quality of the soule it is better knowne by speeche then by any other way else whatsoeuer therefore let it be no maruayle in you if the children of this world do speak world-like euen as they that are of God do conferre on none but those things belonging to god Hereupon we may well say that the blasphemer is of the infernall kingdome because he vseth the same language which the damned do who are doomed for euer to that abyding Euen as contrarywise the exercise of the heauenly Citizens is euermore to be lauding and praysing God Beati qui habitant in domo tua Domine in saecula saeculorum Laudabunt ●e Blessed are they Lord that d●ell in thy house for they shall prayse thee for euer and euer Three seuerall prouinces or kingdoms did god make and eche one hath his proper language to wit the prouince celestiall the terrestriall and the infernall The language celestiall is to blesse and prayse God eternally Et quatuor animalia singula eorum habebant alas senas in circuitu intus plena sunt oculis requiem non habebant die ac nocte dicentia Sanctus Sanctus Sanctus Dominus Deus omnipotens qui erat qui est qui venturus est And the foure beastes had eache one of them six winges about him and they were full of eyes within and they ceased not day nor night saying Holy Holy Holy Lord God Almighty which was and which is and which is to come The language of the terrestriall kingdome is to speake of thinges that are terrestriall Qui de terra est de terra est de terra loquitur He that is of the earth is of the earth and speaketh of the earth The language of the infernall iurisdiction is to speake euill curse and blaspheme both God and his Saints Cum esurierit irascetur maledicet Regi suo Deo suo suspiciet sursum When he shall be hungry he shall euen fret himselfe and curse his king and his Gods and shall looke vpward If by the tongue he shall be knowne whether he be a stranger or no then is it most euident that cuill speakers and blasphemers are of the infernall kingdome Lodouico Most wretched blasphemer who beeing paide with his owne euil neuer thinkes of amending his tongue nor altering his bad language but beeing assured of his harme perseuers in the blame And the tongue which was made for to prayse God withall he turnes it to curse and blaspheme him VVhich is a sinne so execrable and abhominable as sometimes it falleth out that in the holy Scripture where it speaketh of blasphemy there is vsed in steed therof the word blessing as refusing to vse that wicked phrase As we haue it in the first booke of the Kings where when wicked
