A49701 The preaching bishop reproving unpreaching prelates Being a brief, but faithful collection of observeable passages, in several sermons preached by the reverend father in God, Mr Hugh Latimer, Bish. of Worcester, (one of our first reformers, and a glorious martyr of Jesus Christ) before K. Edw. the sixth; before the convocation of the clergy, and before the citizens of London, at Pauls. Wherein, many things, relating to the honour and happiness of the king (our most gracious soveraign) the honourable lords, the reverend judges, the citizens of London, and commons of all sorts, but especially, the bishops and clergy are most plainly, piously and pithily represented. Latimer, Hugh, 1485?-1555. 1661 (1661) Wing L576; ESTC R217646 45,387 134

in_o the_o common-weal_n but_o hunger_n for_o ever_o since_o the_o prelate_n be_v make_v lord_n and_o noble_n the_o plough_n stand_v there_o be_v no_o work_n do_v the_o people_n starve_v they_o hawk_n
