A Fresh Bit of Mutton for those Fleshy minded Canibals that cannot endure Pottadge OR A Defence of Giles Calfine's Messe of Pottadge well seasoned and well crummed Against the idle yet insolent exceptions of his monstrous Adversary MT ST.RA.IS.PH By Drupheyra Thexylvenic Cosmopolites IOELL 2.17 Let the Priests the Ministers of the Lord weep betweene the Porch and the Altar and let them say Spare thy people O Lord and give not thine heritage to reproach that the Heathen should rule over them c. ECCLESIAST 5.2 Be not rash with thy mouth and let not thine heart be hasty to utter any thing before God for God is in Heaven and thou upon Earth therefore let thy words be few Printed for T. P. in Queens head-Alley 1462. A Fresh bit of Mutton for those fleshy minded Cannibals that cannot endure Pottadge OVr blessed Saviour himselfe and also Iohn the Baptist justly called the Pharises of their times a Generation of Vipers and Hypocrites And certainly the new resined Pharisees of our dayes are just the same professing all good yet practising nothing but what is evill and destructive to the peace of the Church The old Pharisees said of John Baptist who came neither eating or drinking that he had a Devill of our Saviour who came both eating and drinking that he was a Glutton and Winebiber c. and that he also had a Devill Of the same humour are our new nice Pharisees if fasting at Church like honest Christians or full fed in a Conventicle amongst their own licentious Libertines they are still the same still going contrary to the the Orders of the Church fasting when they are allowed to feast and feasting when fasts are enjoyned But these men go beyond the old Pharisees in this that they are not content to deny obedience to Church Orders but revile the Church as adulterous for not conforming her selfe to their giddy devises They are never so happy in their own opinions as when they are casting foule indignities aspersions on those whom Christ hath chosen and his Church ordained to be the faithful dispensors of his word Sacramets Hence proceeds those scandalous reproachs against that sacred government which Christ instituted in his Church It is true as Christ said to his Apostles Menshal think they do God good service when they revile and persecute you It appeares nowby these mens practises who think themselves almost capable of Heaven If they can but raile at Gods faithfull Ministers and Ambassadors Traducing their calling as diabolicall and Antichrist●an ●rophaning their practise and worship as Idolatrous and Superstitious blasting their good names as odious and scandalous and calumniating their lives as lewd and licentious but why do I rake in this dunghill of blasphemies and reproaches For what good language can Christs Messengers expect from such incendiaries whose tongues are set on fire from Hel What calamities this viperous generation hath brought on poore Germany is known to all and what it may bring on us is very much to be feared by the monstrous encrease of these pestilent sects of late in this Kingdom We see how they resist the Orders of our Church in troupes and labour by their multitudes to effect that which by plaine arguments and reason they cannot accomplish The patient and pious humble Remonstrance met with a plural adversary a five headed monster stiled Smecty m●u●s Out of the same sea was revealed the second Beast with 7 heads in armes against our Lyturgy known by the name of ●walphineramis but that the mystery of iniquity may appeare every day more abominable Giles Calfines answers are discovered under this heathenish name MT ST.RA.IS.PH And now that you may know him to be a true viper you may see he hath eaten his way through the belly of his damme Impudently proclaiming in his Title and Book that the Lyturgy of our Church is no better than Popish Poradge c. Making the Church too good a mother for such a bastard no better than an harlot He says he hath such arguments against it as are unanswerable A bold speech of an uncircumcised Philistim Yet in the name of God I will throw one stone out of Davids sling at this Goliah though I cannot put on Sauls armour nor was ever wrapped in Samuels mantle And now Sir I must a little reason with you if you will allow of any reason This you say It is no indignity to call the Service Book Porradge by a metaphor because fat Cooks out of the Popes Kitchin composed it I had though my unlettered many lettered brethren that Cooks did make Porradge within not out of the Kitchin and if it had been composed by the Popes Cooks it would never have had so many arguments against Popery as may with small paines be deduced from thence If it be Porradge it is milk Porradge made of the fincere milk of the word and boyled before the Pope had either Cook or Kitchin at least allow it to be as Giles Calfine affirmes good wholesome Porradge well easoned and well crummed c. If there be any thing that doth not agree with your nice pallate it is hearb of Grace whereof there is good store an ingredient which you cannot abide because it will vex your fleshly desires But if the whore of Babylon did chop into it as you say weeds of Idolatry to poyson the children of Grace The blessed Reformers did by their Porradge as Elisha did by those whereof the sons of the Prophets cry'd out saying there is death in the pot that is not throw them away but cure them by putting therin the fine flower of Gods Word and making them conformable to the truth So that there is now nothing in them but that which is in for our nourishment and comfort and I dare confidently affirme that never any child of Grace perished by any night-shade or Colloquintida in the Porradge But you say the name Lyturgy and Masse are used promiscuously by Jesuits and therfore the Lyturgy is unlawful A pretty formal argument the word Communion and Sacrament are used promiscuously by us and the Papists by the same argument wee should not receive the Lords Supper because Papists agree with us in the name By this you may behold on what slender argument your found opinions are grounded But you say Na●nes are the Images of things and therfore the Lyturgy is either a Lethargy of Will-worship or a Mass● of Idolatry Well bowl'd Brether Nicholas but that one is too wide the other too narrow Tenterdon Steeple is the cause of Goodwins sands the more Logical argument of the two if the Name be always the Image of a thing then every one that is named John must be as good as S. John and he that is called Peter as S. Peter I warrant that is the matter that S Paul was so wicked before his name was altered because he was King Sauls name sake I by this can see the reason why you delight to give Scripture names
