defileth not a Christian 8 Eightlye It is the errore of the Anabaptistes as it was of the donatistes and other olde heretikes to absteyne frō the ministere because of the wyckednes of others But Paul wold haue men to proue them selues and not to iudge of other whiche stande or fall to the lorde euen so in this case of goinge to masse let vs know the prest and peoples ylnes do not hurte vs if we in harte consente not to theyr euell 9 Neinthyle In Danuel we rede that god bade hym not loke on the outwarde shewe for I haue reiected that saieth he For man looketh on that whiche is outwarde but god beholdeth the harte So here if the harte be pure it maketh no matter of the outwarde gesture of the bodye 10 Tenthlye All the bewtie and glorye of the kynges doughter that is of the churche and of euery Christian is with in sayth the Psalme .45 and not wythout so that if the hart be pure it forceth not though the bodye be in company at the masse with them that come to masse as to an holye thynge These and suche lyke are the reasons that men make to proue it lawfull for a man or woman to be presente at masse yf in spirite and harte they be absente alowe it not But how weake and vain all these be yea how farre they make agaynste that they wolde proue by gods grace I trust a none to showe after that I haue brefely touched the masse what it is and how greate aneuell it is For a lytle therof wyll I speke and that not so muche that menne myghte knowe that it is euell for I truste in GOD that verye manye knowe that yf so be they wyll knowe it but rather that men maye better consyder howe horryble and monstruouse an euell it is the whiche thinge I fere me fewe doo how be it because yet theyr ar some whiche thinke reueretlie of the masse and erre of semplecitye and ignoraunce therein to whose handes this my wrytinge maye come parchaunce do them good I doubt not but that my laboure in breflye bringynge in here what the masse is how greate an euel it is wyl not be thought vtterlye out of the waye Consernynge the Masse what it is a man wold thinke that of the name of it easely it myght be lerned but certeinly theyr is here in no certeyntie For some call it an oblacion of meale of Mincha Leui. 6. Malach. 1. Psal 141. Some call it a voluntary gifte of Missath Deute 16. Some saye it hathe the name of sendynge awaye such as was called Cathe chumeni bycause they were sente oute of the congregacion when the Lordes supper was to be celebrated Some saye it cometh of sending gyftes almes for y e relese of y e pore which were accustomed to be sent geuing always to fore y e receipt of y e cōmuniō at y e time of y e offitory which therof hath his nam Sō saye otherwyse sōe saye otherwyse against thē so y t theyr is as I sayd no certeyntye at all to learne what the Masse is of the name of it And therfore I thinke it best to looke on the partes of the Masse to lerne ther out that which we can not out of the name How be it by the waye note this that this name Missa is no where redde a mongest the Grecians wyth whome the prymitiue churche dyd floryshe and therfore is no suche aunciente a relyke as y e papystes make it For y e Tripartite Ecclesiastical stori whiche was wrytten in Greke hathe not thys worde Masse in it though the translatore therof into Latyne nowe then vse that worde Neither Ignatius epistel if in Greke they could shewe it wolde helpe any forther thē this ecclesiasticall hystorye And Dionysius in his Ierarchie not wythstandyng the lattē translacions be otherwyse As for the feaninge of some whiche wolde gladlye haue men perswaded of the ancience of the masse and of the name of it therefore saye this worde messa is a worde of the Syrians spech a man wyth halfe an eye can not but see that therin they halte For in that Grece is so nere to Syria and betwene vs and it surely it coulde not but haue bene knowen and wrytten amongest the greke aucthors but to come theyther frome whence I wente thys shall suffyce to note by the waye that thee Maasse whereof wherof no certeintie can be gathered out of the name of it was neuer knowē euen but in name to y e primatiue churche prate the papystes as please them I trust shortlye by the partes to demonstrate the same Yf in speakinge of the partes of the masse I obserue not such an order as I shulde but speke of one peece before whiche shulde be spoken of after I must desyer pardone as wel for that god be prased therfore I neuer saide masse as also for that I haue for gotten the order the prestes were wonte to kepe so longe it is sithens I dyd see any The Introite for heare I wene I shulde begynne one Celestinus bishope of Rome ordeyned aboute the yeare of our lorde .430 so longe this peace of the masse was not catholike nor the grayle also For some saye he brought it in how be it others do saye that Gelasius ordeyned the grayle to be had in y e masse aboute the yeare of oure Lorde .490 And others do wryte that pope Gregorye aboute the yeare of oure lorde .600 dyd institute it as manye other thinges so that of manye daye the grayle was Catholyke The Confiteor pope Damasus brought brought into the masse as it is wrytten aboute the yeare of our lorde .370 So longe the Chatholyke churche wanted it and styll shulde wante it in that it cōteyneth in it Idolatrye Inuocation to sayntes whiche is agaynst gods worde The Kerieelieson .9 tymes to he spoken in suche a tongue as fewe prestes can or do pronounce otherwyse then kyreleson that is Sowe haue mercye or Pigge shewe mercye this pope Gregorie though some saye it was Syluester Instetuted aboute .600 yeares after Chryst as he dyd also the Antiphenys Hallaluia the offertorye and a peace of the canon How be it some saye that pelagyus the seconde hys predecessore dyd so fyrste appoynte kyreeleyson the glorya in excelsis pope Simmachus ordeyned to be song on y e sondais other holy daies about y e yere of our Lord .510 To for this time was the masse out of order for they wryte y t he fyrste broughte the masse into an order but surely the order thē as it was fer frō that in y e premitiue churche was vsed so was it further from the order nowe vsyd for sythen y e tyme manye thynges were founde oute and put to as partelye yf youe note the yeres I wryte you nowe see but more shal se a none by goddes grace I
