❧ wycklyffes wycket whyche he made in Kyng Rycards daye the second in the yere of our lorde God M.CCC.XCV ¶ Ihon the .vi. chapiter ¶ I am the liuynge bread which came downe from heauen who so eteth of this brede shal lyue for euer And the brede that I wyl gyue is my fleshe whiche I wyll gyue for the lyfe of the worlde ⸫ ¶ A verye brefe diffinition of these wordes Hoc est corpus meum I Beseche ye brethren in the lorde Christ Iesu and for the loue of hys spirite to praye with me that we may be vessels to his laude and praise what tyme so euer it pleaseth hym to call vpon vs. Romanes .xv. Chapter For asmuche as our sauiour Iesus Christe when that he walked here on earthe wyth the prophethes whych were before hym and the apostles whych were presētly wyth hym whom also he lefte after hym whose hertes were molyfyed wyth the holy ghoste warned vs and gaue vs knowlege that there was two maner of wayes the one to lyfe the other to death as Christe sayeth Howe straighte and narowe is the waye that leadethe to lyfe and there be but fewe that fyndeth it But how large and brode is the waye that leadethe to dampnation and there be manye that go into it Therfore praye we hertely to God that he of hys mere mercye wyll so strengthen vs wyth the grace and stedfastnes hys holy spirite to make vs stronge in spirituall lyuynge after the euangelicall Gospell so that the worlde no not the very infydeles papistes and apostates can gather none occasion to speake euyll of vs wherby we maye entre into that strayte gate as Christ our sauiour and all that folowes hym haue done that is not in ydle lyuynge but in dilygente labourynge yea in greate sufferaunce of persecutyon euen to the death and that we fynde the waye of euerlastynge lyfe as he hath promysed where he sayeth He that seketh fyndeth and that axeth receyuethe and to hym that knocketh it shal be openyde Also Christe sayethe If thy sonne axe the breade wylte thou gyue hym a stone or yf he axe the fyshe wylte thou gyue hym a serpent yf ye whyche are euyll can gyue good thynges to your chyldren how muche more shall your heuenlye father gyue a good spirite to them that axe it of hym Saynt Iames saythe If any man lacke wysedome let hym axe it of god whyche gyueth to all men yf they axe it in faythe and vpbraydethe none for he that douteth is lyke to the waues of the see that is borne aboute wythe euerye blaste of winde Thinke not that suche shal receiue any thynge of the Lorde For a man double in soule is vnstable in al hys wayes as it is written wherfore let vs praye to God that he kepe vs in the houre of temptation that is comyng in all the worlde For as our sauiour christ sayth Whē ye see that abhomination of desolation that is spoken of by the prophet Daniel standynge in the holy place as christ sayeth he that redethe let hym vnderstonde But for bycause that euery man can not haue the boke of Daniell to knowe what is prophesye is Danyell sayde towarde the laste dayes the Kyng of the northe shall come and the armes of hym shall stonde and shall defyle the sanctuarye and he shall take awaye the continuall sacrifyce and he shall gyue abhominatyon into desolatyon and wycked men shall fynde a testamente gylfullye but ye that knowe youre god shall holde and doo and vntaughte men in the people shall teache full manye men and they shall fall on the swearde and in flame and into Captyuyte manye dayes And when they shall downe they shal be araysed by a lyttell helpe and full manye shal be applyed to them gylfullye and of learned men shoulde fall to them that they buylde together And the chosen shal be together and shal be made whyte tyll a tyme determyned For yet another tyme shal be and the kynge shall do by hys wyll and then he shal be raysed and magnifyed at eche god And againste the god of goddes shall speake greate thynges and he shal be raysed tyll the wrathfulnes before determyned is perfectylye made and he shall not inheryte the god of his fathers and he shal be in the companyes of wemen and he shall not chaunge anye thynge of godes for he shall rayse agayne all thynges Forsoth he shall honour god of Mason̄ in his place and he shall worshipe a god whome hys fathers knowe not not wyth Golde Siluer precyous stones nor wythe precyoue thynges But he shall do make stronge the god of Mason wyth thalyent or straunge god whyche he knewe not and he shall multyplye glorye and he shall gyue to hyme power in manye thynges and he shall departe the lawde at hys wyll hytherto be they the wordes of Danyell who maye see a greater abhomynations then to see the people to be ledde awaye from God and they be taughte to worshyp for God that thing that is not god nor sauiour of the world For thoughe it be theyr God as it is wrytten by a Prophete sayenge The Lordes goynge shall make lowe the God of the earthe for it is they re Goddes that they beleue in them whyche maye not make them saffe as it is wrytten whereas sayncte Paule sayethe ye men of Athens I ꝑceyue that in all thynges I see you as vayne worshippers of Idols for I passed by and sawe your mawmetes foūde an aulter in the whyche was written to te vnknowne God Therefore the thynge whyche you know not ye worshyp as god This thing shewe I vnto you God which made the world and all thynges that be in it Thys forsoth he is Lorde of heauen and of earthe and he dwelleth not in the temple made wyth handes neyther hath he nede of any thynge for he geuethe lyfe to all men and breathe euery where and he made of one all kyndes of men to inhabyte on all the face of the earthe Determyninge tymes ordayned and termes of the dwellinge of them to seke oute God Yf peraduenture they myghte fynde hym althoughe he be not farre from eche of you And agayne he sayethe ye shall not thynke that God lyuynge is not lyke to golde syluer ether any grauen thynge or paynted by crafte eyther taughte of man for God despisethe the tyme of the vnknowen thynges And he shewethe euery where that all men shoulde doo penaunce and herof the clerkes of the lawe haue greate nede whyche haue ben euer agaynste God the Lorde bothe in the olde lawe and in the newe to sley the Prophetes that speke to them the worde of God ye see that they spared not the sonne of God when that the temporall iudge woulde haue delyuered hym and so forthe of the Apostels and martirs that hathe spoken truely the worde of God to them and they say it is
