seene It had bene good for him I say He had not yet bene borne this day Then Iudas which did Christ betray Answer'd and said sir is it I The traitour thought to find a way To cloake his treason craftily Then Christ said thou hast sayd in deed As I haue sayd so shall I speed Christ washed his Disciples feete Christ knowing that the father had Giuen all things into his hand Whereof all men may be right glad That truly this will vnderstand And that from God come forth was he And went to God with him to be He rising from his supper layd His vpper garments all aside And tooke a towell it is sayd And withall girt himselfe that tyde Christ Iesus did this verily To teach vs true humilitie Christ powred in a basin then Water to wash their feete withall He humbling him among his men Did with a towell wipe them all Thus vsd he all simplicitie To teach vs still humilitie To Simon Peter then he came Who sayd what doest thou Lord to me To wash my feete it were my shame Therefore good Lord this may not be What I do now sayd Christ at all Thou knowst not but hereafter shall But Peter sayd thou shalt not now O master wash my feete I say Then Iesus sayd cleane art not thou Nor mayst be if thou disobay For Peter if I wash not thee Thou shalt haue sure no part with me And Simon Peter sayd againe Lord not my feete all onely then But head and hands if thou take paine And wilt such fauour shew to men Christ sayd whose feete is washed so Is cleane and needs not any mo And ye are cleane although not all For he knew who should him betray He knew him well before his fall How fowly he would slide away But to repent he had no grace Though he were checkt in eu'ry place So after that he washed had Their feete and tooke his clothes againe And was set downe as alwayes glad He was for his to take all paine Know ye sayd he what I haue donne Do ye therefore as I begonne Ye call me Lord and master well For so in very deed I am If I your Lord that so excell Most humble for your sakes became Ye ought each others feete therefore To wash as I haue done before Example vnto you gaue I That you as I haue done should do The seruant was not certainly Aboue his master hitherto Nor the ambassadour I say Greater then who sent him away If ye know these things I declare And do ●hem then blessed are ye It is a vertue verie rare Among most men the same to see All this he spake to them assoone As he of washing them had done Christ instituted the Sacrament of his holie Supper And as they sate all then at meate Iesus tooke bread and brake the same And giuing thankes gaue it to eate To them that thither with him came And sayd take eate ye all of this My body for you giuen is Also he tooke the cup when he Had giuen thankes and gaue it those Saying of it now drinke all ye This cup see ye do so dispose As I haue taught you still sayd he Receiuing this remember me For this it is my bloud truly Of the new Testament I make For many shed assuredly Thereby their sinnes away to take Who so hath not remission By it hath iust damnation Hence-forth of this fruit of the vine I will not drinke vntill that day When I shall drinke it new with mine And that Gods kingdome come I say When Supper thus all finisht was Christ Iesus song a Psalme for grace And Iudas that did Christ betray Assoone as Sathan prickt him on Departed thence and went away But Iesus sayd ere he was gone What is deuised secretly Go Iudas do it speedily But none of them that then were there Knew why the Lord sayd to him so The bagge thought they Iudas doth beare And therefore he doth bid him go To giue the poore what he thinkes best Or to prouide against the feast When he was gone out Iesus sayd The sonne of man is glorified And God in him be not affrayd For you in both are sanctified As God in the sonne verily So he the sonne will glorifie Christ departed thence into the mount of Oliues where as also by the way he comforted and strengthened his Disciples When Iesus thus fore-warned had All them of that which happened To comfort them and make them glad Against his death which hastened They passed thence though it was night And to mount Oliues they went right Where he as also by the way Admonisht them and comforted To loue together and I say Against the deu'll them strengthened For Christ did know it well before They should be tempted ye ●●fore This night sayd he you shall be all Offended much because of me For when the shepheard hath a fall The sheepe soone shall then scattred be Yet after I am risen I Will go with you to Galilie O litle children yet a while I am with you ye shall seeke me Let not the deu'll you then beguile Where I go yet come cannot ye Let this therefore I say you moue Each one another for to loue By this shall all men know indeed That my Disciples sure ye are If each one helpe ano●hers need And to the world your loue declare Loue is the badge and onely signe That men may best know you for mine Then Simon Peter sayd I pray Lord tell me whither goest thou O Simon where I go I say Thou canst not come and follow now But afterwards I tell it thee Thou shalt be sure to follow me And Peter sayd Lord why not now My I fe●● will loose for thy sake Thy life for my sake loose wilt thou No hast said Christ ô Simon make The cocke shall not crow verily Vntill thou do me thrise deny And Iesus sayd ô Simon see Sathans desires assuredly That you as wheate should winow'd be This he attempted earnestly But I for thee haue pray'd I say Thy faith so fayle not cleane away And see when thou conuerted art Thy brethen that thou strengthen then But he said though I suffer smart And dye the death before all men My master I will not deny So said the rest assuredly And he sayd vnto them againe When you without a bagge I sent And scrip and shoes declare it plaine What then ye lacked where ye went Nothing sayd they but now sayd he To you these things may wanting be See then of these things ye make store And sell thy coat a sword to buy The Scripture shall be euermore In me performed certainly They sayd ô Lord two swords haue we It is inough againe sayd he Christ armed his Disciples with consolation against trouble declaring that he is the way the truth and the life
