perceiue mine ende to approache to the example of many that the iudgement and iustice of GOD maie openly be declared vpon me And when he had thus saide he turned his face awaie from vs turnyng himselfe on the other side then saide the reuerende father Vergerius Ah deare master Francis turne your face vnto vs I would wee praied to God togither and saie Our father c. Then he turnyng him began to say the lordes praier in his mother tongue with suche grauitie and deuotion that all wee did wonder and this vttered hee added these woordes I haue saide it with my mouth but my hearte is cleane from it God hath taken all his grace from mee My heart is vtterly hardened Ye labour in vaine And when we had spo●ken with hym all these wordes and many other we had hym farewell And so departed all thence with the Lord Vergerius to pray vnto God for hym entendyng to returne on the morow if the blessed God woulde vouchesafe to shew hym his mercie The next daye we came to the wretched man saluting him as the maner is to whom the reuerende lorde Vergerius sayde Right welbeloued Maister Francis is it any better with you by the grace of GOD haue ye receiued no comforte in your hart haue you conceyued any good hope to whome he aunswered nothing at all but rather cōtinually worse and worse Then began we to demaunde of him many questions and especiallye what time he fell first into that cōfusion and desperation and when that vnquencheable worme did firste begin to burne his conscience then recited he vnto vs the whole order and processe of his first and seconde abiuration as we haue declared in the beginning Which abiurations made by and by he perceiued himselfe to be smitten wyth the mightie hād of God not with any affliction or infirmitie of the body which he right gladly would haue acknowledged for the chasticement and correction of sinne and would not vtterlye haue cast away hope and trust But the most wretched felow from that houre and that sodainly parceyued himself to be stricken in heart spirite and conscience for God from that houre sente into his harte a gnawyng worme an vnquencheable fire that sodainely he might be filled with errour confusion and desperation which worme and fire neuer since forsooke hym in so much that hée confessed himselfe to be in farre worse estate than if his soule were deuided from his body and he with Caine and other dampned persons desiring rather to be in the place of any deade and damned soule than so to lyue in his body and that death shoulde be much more welcome to him Then wéeping he began to declare vnto vs horrible visions how that he perceyued since that time cōtinually Deuils to come to his chamber yea to his bed making a noyse and businesse putting him in feare and sheauering sticking pinnes in the pillow vnder his heade and sayde that he cōceyued not these thinges by a false or corrupt imagination but euen as truely as he sawe vs all aliue and speaking with him Then sayde the reuerend Lorde Vergerius Ah deare Maister Frauncis yo 〈…〉 spirite vtterly corrupt representeth 〈…〉 to you these erronious illusions and f 〈…〉 imaginations But returne a while vnto the spirite of truth and direct your hart with hope and affiaunce vnto the blessed God mercifull and full of goodnesse and without doubt he will be good and mercifull vnto you he wyll cast from you all horror and confusion haue sure cōfidence swéete M. Francis we all haue good hope of you through the infinite mercye of God and if it please you let vs saye togither from the heart the Lords prayer Then sayde he in Latine the whole prayer with plētifull teares so deuoutly and grauely and wyth such inwarde affection as we thought that all we that stoode by did wéepe wyth hym And when I behelde both the teares the repentance and contrition of the man I sayde Maister Frauncis the blessed God be praysed Now are not these the tokens of vtter refusyng or castyng awaye You ●ourne ye cal for the fauor of God with ●ar●est desire Doe not vtterly dispaire of his pardon and say not with a desperate minde that God is against you and that ye beleue that yée were reprobate and refused from the beginning For no 〈…〉 a● can know as long as he is in this mortall lyfe whether he bée worthie the hatred or loue of God through the righteousnesse of workes And when we earnestly exhorted him that in no case he shoulde fall from all hope and trust and that euerie man that is borne although he had committed all the sinnes of the whole worlde ought yet to haue some hope of the fauour and mercy of God whose goodnesse mercie is muche more plenteous than mannes vnderstandyng can perceyue and that if any of vs were fallen into suche miserie yet shoulde he not dispaire of the mercie of the high and good god To the which hée aunswered I knowe all this and I beleue that the infinite mercy of God doth farre surmount all the sinnes of the worlde and that euerye man that beléeueth and hath fayth eastlye obtayneth pardon of all the sinnes of the worlde But this hope thys faith is the gifte of god And this one thing wante I that I can neyther hope nor beleue of the fauour and mercie of God towardes mée And I would God that he would graunt me this one thing that I coulde conceyue neuer so little hope and beliefe of forgiuenesse and pardon But this is euen as possible as to take the whole water of the sea in one spoone and to drinke it vppe at a draughte If Salomon had bene in suche case as I am and had some what knowne those thinges which I prooue nowe by manifest experience hee woulde neuer haue vttered that Sentence But I doe beléeue and this I knowe most assuredly that there was neuer any man that had more manifest experience in his lyfe of the hatred wrath and indignation of the righteous god against hym then I haue I would I were in the place of any damned person You that are in blessed estate suppose thys an easie thing to be done that a sinner reknowledging his fault may lift vp himselfe to hope and faith towards God ▪ and therefore ye exhort me for as much as ye sée me repentaunt and sorowfull that I would conceiue some hope and trust to rise againe ▪ The helthfull hath no néede of a Phis●tion and he that is whole can soone giue councell to the sicke But herein am I tormented this is my hel this is my confusion and desperation that I knowe all grace to be taken from me that I féele my heart hardened that I can not beleue nor hope any thing at all of the attonement and mercie of god Fewe there be whome iust Iupiter hath loued We comforted the miserable estate of this desperate man by such meanes as we coulde

promising that wée woulde praye to God for him bad him farewell and departed thence with the reuerend Lorde Vergerius And thus doth the wretched man liue in his body A certaine strong man there is that when he intended to giue him meate doth binde his armes and shoulders with handes bicause he shoulde not resist wyth his handes And so opening his mouth by force putteth thinne broth into his mouth with a spoone or other instrumēt And yet doth he let it as much as he can stopping it with his tongue But it can not choose but that some of the broth must néedes fall downe by his gaping into the iawes and palace of his mouth and so thence into his stomake And thus with much a doe he is 〈…〉 shed twise a daie but auoyding nothyng But euer he desireth to die and to go to hell with all spéede lookyng euerie houre for the terrible sentence of God as he most euidentlye and openly doth declare by his communication The thirde daie came wee vnto hym with the reuerend Father Vergerius and did salute hym as the maner is and began againe to comfort him Notwithstandyng he saide nothyng but shuttyng his eyen like one a sléepe with pain gaue aunswere Then came there a certaine aged man from the place of Citadell askyng hym whether hee knewe hym his friend whom the wretched man beholdyng with his eyen did scarce acknowledge Then saide he Maister Frauncis I am Anthony Fontanina Priest who was with you the same day that ye came to Venis about seuen or eight monethes past Then saide Frauncis with pittifull grone and sighings Alas that cursed daie Alas that cursed daie I would I had neuer gone thyther or else had dyed at that present Then began we to demaunde him many questions specially of his olde fayth and whether hee had at any tyme any stedfast or perfite beliefe and how he fell so miserably from that faith ▪ for as muche as it was vnpossible that he that had once perfitely and firmely beleued should fall from the whole For it is written that the giftes of the holy ghoste are without repentaunce Then aunswered hee Certes I did beléeue that Christ was the sacrifice that appeased Gods wrath toward vs and that it was he only by whom we did attaine saluation and righteousnesse neither doubted I at any tyme in this But I did not reknowledge the benifites of Christe and to saye the truth I neuer loued hym againe with perfite hart But rather tooke the fayth of the Gospell to the liberty of the fleshe and so did abuse that faithe to vnlawfull licence to sinne and did neglecte the whole studie desire and meane of Godlinesse and religion By and by turning him vnto certaine yong men that stode by he said My Sonnes hearken to my words I say not this for that I woulde plucke any thing from the holy Gospell whiche I knowe to bee moste true but that ye should not set is muche by youre faithe but that also ●● should doe good workes beléeue me that haue proued it And then oftētimes with teares and sighynges he did commende aboue all the scripture the worthie Epistle of Peter chiefe in deede of all the Apostles which exhorteth all faithfull christians to Godlinesse chastitie holinesse and cleane life and to prepare an vnspotted Temple to God. But I saied he where as I bothe did presume that I had attained perfite faith and also boldely preached to other and had in a readinesse all the places of Scripture yet liued wickedly and vngodly And behold the manifest iudgement of God who hath sodainely taken me in his anger and furie not for any amendment but to perfite damnation Then rose there vp one that was there present a man excellently learned and long exercised in holy Scripture and said Maister Frauncis we doe not altogether allowe this your exhortation wheras ye councell vs not so muche to yelde to the faith of the Gospell but that we should also embrace and commende the affiaunce of works For we know that there are two kindes of righteousnesse outward and inwarde Outwarde righteousnesse whiche is of workes and which the worlde doth commend the same iustifieth not before God neither auaileth to saluation For Socrates Cato and Arestides right well perfourmed that righteousnesse wherby they gate muche prayse and glorie in this worlde But the inwarde righteousnesse is of God whiche doth regenerate vs by grace into hope faith and charitie and by this faith fréely graunted vnto vs doe we liue and are iustified and God imputeth not oure sinnes vnto vs without the whiche neuerthelesse we can not be as the scripture saith if we saie we haue no sinne we beguile our selues But blessed is hee to whom the Lorde imputeth not sinne and whose sinnes are couered Wherefore there is no cause that ye should sende vs to outwarde workes as to the Anker and refuge of saluation and righteousnesse Than saide I Sir Mayster Francis words are not to be taken so precisely or exactly as though he would compare the outwarde righteousnesse of workes to the faithe of the Gospell and inward righteousnesse But he exhorted the yong men after this sort bicause the most parte doe wickedly turne the libertie of the Gospel into the vnlawful libertie of the fleshe and without aduisement ●buse the gift of faith and whereas they ●●all themselues faithfull yet denie faithe 〈…〉 their déedes Therefore Peter in his Epistle whiche this man so muche com 〈…〉 ended as ye haue hearde and Iames also teache almost nothing else than that we shoulde declare our faithe in our outwarde woorkes as Sainct Peter saieth Wherefore brethren doe as much as ye 〈…〉 n to make your election certain by your ●ood works And Iames also saith Shew 〈…〉 e thy faith and I will shewe thée mine ●y my workes Therefore this man bla 〈…〉 eth himselfe greatly for this cause that 〈…〉 hereas he professed that hee had the in●ard righteousnesse alwaies neglected ●●e outward Then began wee earnestly to dispute of the matter and of the estate of this ●retched man and diligently to searche ●heter his trespasse were mortall or no. for the whiche accordyng to the saiyng 〈◊〉 Sainct Ihon wee ought not to praie ●nd that well learned man beganne to 〈…〉 spute learnedly and excellently of the 〈…〉 nue against the holy Ghost and of resistyng after the truthe ▪ is knowne and made a plaine distinction as we thought of all the kindes of sinne againste the holy ghost And the wretched man harkened to all these thinges with attentiue eare to whom the Lord Vergerius said Wel ▪ beloued Maister Francis when ye heare these thynges disputed so godlye and deuoutly and the places of Scripture in whiche ye haue excelled to bee brought forth take you in the meane season n● comfort and recreation with vs And specially seyng that you for your capacitie ▪ declare the Scriptures so eloquently w 〈…〉 are not
