else give somewhat to the beautifying and enriching of the said Church shall have manifold indulgence and pardon with full remission of all their sins In the Church of St. Panthaleon is 48 years of pardon In the Church of St. Pancras is 100 years of pardon Of certain Churches in Rome dedicated to our Lady IN the Church of our Lady called Rotunda is every Friday in the year and in the Feast of All-hollows clean and perfect remission of all sins This Church was edified by one called Agrippa in the Worship of Sibilla Venus and Neptunus and of all other Gods and Goddesses and was called Pantheon But afterward at the desire of the Pope Boniface it was granted by the Emperor to be made a Temple of the Christians so that the asoresaid Pope with a great multitude of the Romans did dedicate the same the first of the Kalends of November in the Worship of our Lady and of all Saints He hath also made there an Altar and said Mass there himself and ministred the Sacrament to the people and on the morrow after he said Mass in the same place for all Souls past He granted also great Indulgence and Pardon to all that devoutly visit this Church and meekly kneeling upon their knees

Item In the same Church are the steps of Odraphin printed in Stone which was found upon the Castle of St. Angel In the same Church also is one of the five Images of our Lady which St. Luke did paint In the Church of our Lady called Ara Coeli is 3000 years of pardon and as many Lents This Church was sometime the Palace of Octavianus the Emperor who saw in his Vision a fair Virgin in Heaven standing upon an Altar holding a goodly Child in her Arms At which sight he marvailed greatly and afterward heard a Voice from Heaven saying Haec ara Coeli filij Dei est And he fell to the ground and worshipped Christ and believed in his coming This Vision he had in his Chamber where now the Church of St. Mary called Ara Coeli is Under this Church is a Prison where St. Peter was imprisoned where is now a fair Chappel in which is a Pit wherein St. Peter did baptize many Martyrs And St. Peter was led out of that Prison by the Angel and there is great and mighty pardon In this Church also is one of the Images of our Lady which St. Luke painted This Image was made after the same form and manner that our Lady stood at the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ mourning weeping and lamenting This Image is of great virtue and worketh daily many miracles as ye may see in a certain Table that hangeth by the aforesaid Image In the Church of St. Mary the New is 1000 years of pardon and in Lent 200 years In this Church also is an Image of our Lady which St.
of the Pope's Canonizing ever deserved more from the Pope than this brave Prince did Of the third principal Church and of the Reliques contained in the same THE third principal Church is at St. Pauls in the which are these Reliques 1. The Arm of St. Ann our Lady's Mother Arm of St. Ann. 2. One of the chains wherewith St. Paul was bound and many other more without number That our Lady's Mothers name was St. Ann is unknown but this I know that all these are inventions of them who are his followers that is the Father of Lyes for the good Saint is returned to her dust long before this Lye was invented But be it so if they have St. Pauls chain I pray the next time they open shop let us see the virtue of the holy Relique Item Half the bodies of Peter and Paul The Popish party are wonderful exact in dividing Saints bodies Under the high Altar is the other half of the bodies of the holy Apostles Peter and Paul Also the body of St. Timothy who was St. Paul's Disciple And infinite number of the Reliques of Saints whose souls are merry and joyful in Heaven But the wonder is where they found the body of St. Timothy But what need that since they have the happy opportunity of having so many bodies at one time of him in several places and certain it is that they may turn any body into the body of St. Timothy when they can turn a piece of bread into the body of God In this Church also is a devout Image of the Cross That the Cross spake which spake to Saint Briget because she prayed so many times and so devoutly before it That a Wooden Cross should speak none but a brazen-fac'd Popish Priest dare affirm I am certain that the best of St. Brigets revelations are very suspicious and never yet is there the least mention of this story I confess in her Lise the Papists take notice of such a passage but never any Church receiv'd it but the Whore of Rome Of the fourth principal Church and of the Reliques contained in the same THE fourth principal Church is at St. Maries the greater in which are these Reliques following 1. Body of St. Mathew and others The body of St. Mathew the Apostle lyeth under the high Altar Also the head of the said St. Mathew resteth in the said Church Item The Body of St. Jerome who is one of the Doctors of holy Church Item The Bodies of St. Ramula and St. Redempta Here is a crowd of Saints pretended by such a crew of Impostors as are not found amongst the heathen In the same Church is 2. A little clout in which Mary the Virgin wrapped her Son Christ when he lay in the Manger at Bethlem being newly born O horrid and great lye that a little clout should last such a great while as 1600 years and be brought from Bethlem to Rome which is I believe nigh 2000 miles 3. St. Jerome's Stole St. Jerom's stole The arm of St. Mathew the Apostle and Evangelist The arm of St. Luke the Evangelist The arm of Thomas Becket Archbishop of Canterbury The hand and arm of St. Vibian Virgin and Martyr Certainly these Saints had wonderful effects shewn upon their bodies after they were dead for eight of St. Mathews arms are to be seen in Flanders Spain and France I have seen three of St. Lukes but of Beckets there is no end 4. Manger The Popish Shavelings tell us the virtue of this Manger and how many of them ye have The Manger wherein Christ lay at Bethlem when the shepherds came unto him That a Wooden Manger should be brought from Bethlem to Rome which is nigh 2000 miles and last to be seen there 1600 years after Christs birth can be credited by none but them that love to make lyes whose doom you may read Rev. 21.27 cap. 21.15 Besides these there are many other Reliques both of he-Saints and she-Saints whose souls rejoyce in heaven and these Reliques are shewed to the people upon Easter-day about Even-song time That so holy a time should be prophaned by such shows sheweth the unholiness of Popish Priests Of the Fifth Principal Church and of the Reliques comained in the same THE Fifth Principal Church is at St. Laurences without the Walls The Stone on which Laurence laid in which besides other is this Relique viz. the Stone upon which blessed Laurence was laid after that he was roasted and dead I think it would almost make a Stone bleed to hear of the horrid forgery of the Church of Rome This Stone hath an excellent faculty at casting out Devils as Father Anderton wrote when he sent a piece of it to St. Omers in a Letter dated March 10 1678. And the Dog at St. Omers being not well this piecee of Stone was hanged about his neck in a Bag to cure him of madness what effects it wrought I cannot tell but this Stone and a good breakfast filled the Curs Belly Of the Sixth Principal Church and of the Reliques contained in the same THE Sixth Principal Church is at St. Fabian and St. Sebastian in the which besides other innumerable are these Reliques that is to say the body of blessed Sebastian the Martyr The body of Fabian Pope and Martyr The body of blessed Stephen Pope and Martyr The body of St. Lucy the Virgin c. It 's a grievous thing that the bodies of the good Saints may not rest in their Graves but must be dragged out to be made a Market on by a company of covetous Paplings But it is Money that makes the Mare to go And if we consider the vast treasures that the Clergy of the Church of Rome have acquired we shall not need much to wonder But I hope that the Princes of Christendom will be wiser than to believe them for time to come Of the seventh principal Church and of the Reliques contained in the same THE seventh principal Church is of the Holy Cross in Jerusalem in which are these Reliques following 1. Two Cups of which one is full of the blood of Christ Blood of Christ Milk of Mary and the other is full of the Milk of the blessed Virgin Mary She gives a jolly deal of that we had a Glass full before and now we have got a Cup full But I pray how came they by a Cup full of Christs blood Sure the Jews saved it not and the Disciples were all fled Mat. 26.56 And that this Milk and Blood should not be dryed up all this time looks like one of their lying wonders 2. The Sponge which being full of Vinegar and Gall the Jews reached unto Christ hanging on the Cross a little before his death This is like the rest as if the Jews had reserved that Spunge it is a wonder they do not lye and say they have the Reed also 3. A good large piece of the Holy-Cross Some-time they have the whole Cross as in
the Three principle Churches Piece of the Cross and then it could speak and now here is a piece of it Cannot that speak also 4. Two Thorns Two Thorns of Christs Crown Who saved these the Disciples How came it at Rome But it 's not a Thorn matter how they Romance But I should be glad to know when they will have an end of their Thorns for they have at least a Bushel of them as divers will justifie when it is necessary 5. One Nail A noble increase One of the Nails wherewith Christ was fastued to the Cross There was but Three have they got one And the Publisher hath seen four that are so called one at Burgos one at Vallidolyd two in Flanders 6. A piece of the Cross of that Thief which did hang on Christs right hand and turned unto Christ before his death Is a Thiefs Cross become a Sacred Rellique I fear they are Thieves themselves that made it so Yet why should we fear that of which the Princes and people of Europe have been so long convinced The Reliques that are in other Churches at Rome IN the Church of St. Chrysogone are these Reliques Arm of St. James Shoulderplate of St. Andrew An Arm of St. James The Shoulder plate of St. Andrew the Apostle And the Head of the aforesaid St. Chysogone Abundance of Saints without Heads I doubt the Priests cut them off to make merchandize More wonders yet St. James put to death in Palestine by Heroes Sword and yet his Arm at Rome In the Church of St. Cecily these Reliques are contained Maximianus The body of St. Cecily Item The bodies of Tyburtius of Valerianus of Lucius the Pope the first of that name of Maximianus which all lye buried under the high-Altar There are many other Reliques in the said Church In this Church we cannot find any Reliques worth the noting If the Reader doth not apprehend the meaning of this passage let him inform himself at the Rainbow Coffee-house in Fleetstreet and if the Reader will not believe them to be in this Church let him go to Rome to disprove the Pope But now I think on 't it is further thither than it is to St. Albans and therefore he had better believe it and stay at home In the Church of Bartholomew Body of Bartholomew there is the body of St. Bartholomew the Apostle in a certain Tabernacle which is set upon the high Altar There is also the body of St. Pauline of St. Albert of St. Marcell and of St. Superante Besides there are many other Reliques which with those aforesaid are shewed on St. Bartholomew-day and on Palm-Sunday In what proportions these bodies appear I know not but if in their full proportions they have very roomly Altars and that these bodies are not rotten ere now would be a wonder nay a great one But that the world hath been taught to believe A Power that our Lord Christ did not give to his Apostles Rib of St. Matthew Hand of St. Nicholas that Mr. Popes Holyness hath an infallible way of saving bodies from putrefaction and hath been so kind to the General of the Jesuits as that in the year 1668 to give this power to him and to the Generals of some other Orders In the Church of St. Nicholas there is a Rib of St. Matthew the Apostle and Evangelist There is also an Hand of St. Nicholas and an arm of St. Alexius Truly it is to be believed What matter is it since we get money by it Our Ladies Milk I believe this poor Church was endowed when our Ladies Wardrobe was plundered but Clouts rather than nothing that Thieves and Robbers have had better quarter with Papists for if they do not be-lye themselves the bodies of the Saints have had little or no rest in their graves In the Church of St. George are these Reliques part of our Ladies milk certain pieces also of her Garments There is also the banner spear and head of St. George That there was such a St. George is as great a question as that of our Ladies Milk is a Lye but if they have any part of St. George how came it to pass they did not get part of his horse and of the Dragon he killed they would have made excellent Reliques In the Church of St. Anastasins is the pillar whereupon the blessed Apostle St. Paul was beheaded The Pillar on which St. Paul was beheaded But alas there is no Sword to be found that did it and this is most miserable ill fortune And of this Pillar there are so many pieces in the world insomuch that if there were a collection made of them they would make ten pillars But I pray have they not the arm of the man and the sword that cut off his head it would do well if they were produced In the Church of the blessed Virgin Mary is the Altar which is called Scala Coeli Upon this Altar all they that sing Mass or cause Masses to be sung for the souls that are in Purgatory through the Merits of the same blessed Virgin Scala Coeli the said souls are delivered out of hand from the bitter pains of Purgatory and brought unto the everlasting joys of Heaven Moreove whatsoever is devoutly asked in that place it is without all doubt granted In the same Church are hidden also the bones of ten thousand Martyrs all which are most precious Reliques It 's ten thousand to one if this be not all found false and that it may appear so do but call to mind what St. Peter said Acts 4.12 with 1 Tim. 2.5 which shows the Virgins Mediatorship and her Altars vertue to be a cheat to bring grist to the Pope's Mill. And it 's to be noted that he that invented Purgatory contrived the way out of it that he might bring money into his own pocket In the Church of St. Gregory there are besides divers other these two principal Reliques 1. The arm of St. Gregory the Pope 2. The thigh of St. Panthaleon Note how these Cannibals pull the Saints in pieces that they may not eat their bones but by showing their bones may eat up the people In the Church which is called Sancta Maria 〈◊〉 is the Image of our Lady Luke the Painter Good imployment for an Angel to turn Image carrier which St. Luke painted at Troas a City 〈…〉 This Image an Angel brought into the aforesaid Church The 〈…〉 this Image is so great that when all the Church was burnt yet this Image had no harm * A very considerable Miracle Pieces of Fragments I suppose they encrease as well as the rest but I pray tell me the virtues of these reliques Cursed be the Image and the Image-maker saith the Scripture and therefore if any Angel it must be one of the fallen Angels who also taught the priests to put such a Lye upon St. Luke Moreover in the aforenamed Church there are kept as
of years before turned to dust should be set up as Reliques of Saints And could Helen fetch them from the remote parts of India where she never was But I see every place must have some foppery or other to invite fools and to inrich Priests The holy and religious Monk St. Bernard after that he was canonized and made a Saint by Pope Alexander did so abound in working Miracles in the place where his body lay by reason thereof great confluence of people resorted to the Abby that the Abbot of the place forbad him to work any more miracles And blessed St. Bernard meekly and reverently obeyed Father Abbots commandment and so for ever he took his ease and wrought no more miracles This obedience was shewed St. Bernard being dead A man would stand amazed at the confidence these people have in telling of lyes yea contradictions but if true and consistent Note then doubtless the Abbot was an ill-natur'd fellow that he would hinder the good that cost him nothing And had St. Bernard been set at work by the liberal God he would not have been subject to a covetous Abbot that had so much of his meat and drink devoured by poor people But this sounds like the rest In a certain Monastery of St. Gabriel is a great stone that fell down from Heaven having in it the sign of the holy Cross and a very lively Image of Christ and written upon it with Golden Letters these words Jesus Nazarenus Rex Judeorum This great stone as they say is a great precious Relique and worketh great Miracles in the great Monastry of great Saint Gabriel We may see what takes people off from holy Scripture Note from God from Christ they have laden all people and filled all places with such lyes cheats and hocus-pocus tricks that they have no room left in their hearts for truth Hugo the Monk at the desire of Monk William Abbot of Hirsangia sent unto him the hair of St. Peter which was received with great reverence and placed in the aforesaid Abby as a true precious Relique not without great honour daily done unto it They honour any thing but Christ and God Note Norbertus came unto Toline to seek Saints Reliques and after that he and his Company had given themselves to fasting and prayer certain days one of the number of the nine thousand Virgins appeared unto him and shewed him her name and the place where she lay The next day after the aforesaid Norbertus with his Company took her up with great reverence and solemnity and placed her very devoutly with many other Reliques in the Monastry Premonstratense Thus people when they have forsaken the living God Note seek dead stinking Carcases to adore and worship and sure if Lazarus stank in four days this Woman could not be sweet after many years but to make it a Miracle they must pretend a Vision In Norfolk there was a certain Monastry called Bromholm-Abbey in the which was an holy Cross brought thither by a certain Priest This Cross was so precious a Relique and of so great virtue that it raised up unto life thirty-nine dead persons restored to their sight nineteen blind men and wrought many other notable Miracles The people in Norfolk use to be more ingenuous than to be so cheated Note but when Priests have once made men blind they may lead them whither they list out of one error into another In Winfarthing a little Village in Norfolk there was a certain Sword called the Sword of Winfarthing This Sword was counted so precious a Relique and of so great virtue that there was a solemn Pilgrimage used unto it with large gifts and offerings with Vow-makings Crouchings and Kissings This Sword was visited and sought far and near for many and sundry purposes but specially for things that were lost and for Horses stollen or run astray It helped also greatly to shorten a married mans life if the Wife weary of her Husband would set a Candle before that Sword every Sunday for the space of one whole year no Sunday excepted for then all was in vain whatsoever was done before I have many times heard when I was a child of divers ancient men and women That this Sword was the Sword of a certain Thief which took Sanctuary in that Church-yard and afterward through the negligence of the Watchmen escaped and left his Sword behind him which being found and laid up in a certain old Chest was afterward through the subtilty of the Parson and the Clerk of the same Parish made a precious Relique full of virtue able to do much but especially to enrich the Box and to make fat the Parsons pouch I shall leave the Reader to weigh this Story Note and by putting both ends together he may see there is no end of the Romish cheats and the peoples folly In Thetford a Town in Norfolk there was a Parish-Church which is now destroyed called St. Audrice In this Church among other Reliques was the Smock of St. Audrice which was there kept as a great jewel and precious Relique The virtue of this Smock was mighty and manifold but especially in putting away the Tooth-ach and the swelling of the Throat so that the Patient were first of all shriven and heard Mass and did such Oblations as the Priest of the Church enjoyned All was governed by the Priest and the Priest by his covetousness Note of which there is no end In the Monastry of St. Edmundsbury besides many other almost innumerable Reliques there was one a modest singular and precious Relique called St. Edmunds Girdle The virtue of this Relique was That if any woman being with Child came devoutly on Pilgrimage to sweet St. Edmund and were girded about with that holy Relique by some Monk and so kneeling down before St. Edmund's shrine said certain Pater Nosters certain Ave Maries and a Creed in the Worship of God and of our Lady and sweet St. Edmund and paid the accustomed offering she should not perish of that Child but have good and lucky deliverance This was an easie medicine but like all the rest chargeable Note They wrought all their Miracles for money by which it appears they were none of Christs Disciples who as they received freely gave freely but Antichrists merchandize was always of more cost than value In the same Monastry there was also another holy Relique which was called the pardon bowl whosoever drunk of this Bowl in the Worship of God and St. Edmund he had 500 days of pardon toties quoties How some for cure some for pardon Note all were made to bring Grist to the Popes Mill. The Coat of St. John the Evangelist was so holy a Relique and of so great virtue that by touching thereof such as were diseased were cured the sick were made whole the blind were restored to their sight the Lepers were cleansed and Devils were cast out of men These are such incredible Stories that
48 years of pardon and as many Lents or Kerries And seven of the Altars are priviledged with great grace and pardon At the first Altar is the visage of our Lord who looketh upon that hath 700 years of pardon Also the Spear that Christ was pierced with brought from Constautinople sent from the great Turk to Pope Innocent the Eighth When I have nothing else to do I will visit these Altars yet I think a man may do as well to stay at home The second Altar is of St. Andrew there ye have 500 years of pardon The third Altar is of St. Gregory there ye have 400 year of pardon The 4th Altar is of our Lady there is 700 years of pardon The 5th Altar is of St. Leo there he received the absolution in his Mass from Heaven and there is 700 years of pardon The 6th Altar is of All-Souls and there is 500 years of pardon and every high Feast a Soul out of Purgatory The 7th Altar is of Simon and Jude there is 600 years of pardon And before the door stand two iron Crosses who kisseth those Crosses hath 500 years of pardon Had not Christ proposed in his Gospel the way and method that God used in pardoning the sins of mankind the Pope would have deserved well at mens hands yet these pardons require so tedious a Journey that it would ruine a poor Papist to perform it therefore my advice is That he stay at home and make but use of Gods means for obtaining pardon and I assure him he may have it an easier rate for God offers it without mony or without price Isa 55.1 2. Item upon our Lady-day in Lent hangeth afore the Quire a Cloth that our Lady made her self and it hangeth still till our Lady-day Assumption And as many times as a man beholdeth that Cloth he hath 400 years of pardon Our Lady was admirably well imployed and so very many good works have been done by her that the Papists need do none themselves Also as many times as a man goeth through the Crouds at St. Peters Church he hath 400 years of pardon Here the Pope of his great liberality we thank his Holiness for it crouds a great deal of pardon upon his Votaries And as oft as a man followeth the Sacrament to the sick bodies he hath 1400 years of pardon I do not wonder now why Rogues and Whores were so Zealous to follow the Sacrament for here is a Jolly crop of pardon bestowed on them by good Mr. Pope Also Pope Sylvester granted to all them that daily go to the Church of St. Peter the third part of all his sins released and all his Vows and Promises released and all his sins forgotten released and forgiven except laying violent hand upon Father or Mother And above this is granted 2800 years of pardon and the merits of as many Lents or Karins What a Karin is ye shall find in the end of this book And in the Feast of St. Peter 1000 years of pardon and as many Karins and the third part of penance enjoyned released And from the Ascension-day of our Lord unto the Assumption of our Lady ye have 1400 years of pardon and as many Karins and forgiveness of the third part of all sins Who would converse with such Vermin or stand bound to take their words for here is at the first dash a bonny release from all vows and promises Certainly men are not safe in such Conversation as may be ruin'd for such a proinise-makers going to see a Church Nay it is the Opinion of the Jesuits if a man hath but a Friend at Rome that will do it for him it is all one therefore there can be no credit given either to their Promises or Vows And upon the one side of St. Peters Church lieth a Church-yard But they must part with the mony that they have begged in their Journey and that is called Gods field where none but poor pilgrims are buried and it is the Land that was bought with the 30 pence for which our Lord was sold As oft as a man goeth upon that ground he hath 15 years of pardon This if the Pope lieth not would be an excellent motive to draw Pilgrims and other persons to Rome but lazie Protestants had rather stay at home In the old Latin Book we read concerning the Church of St. Peter that there are granted every day in the year to so many as devoutly come unto it 48 years of pardon and as many Lents with the forgiveness of the third part of all sins Well it is but the forgiveness of the third part of your sins but the Pope hath an excellent Church where all your sins shall be pardoned go thither and let this alone till you are assured of your bargain for before you get home it will cost you dear Note also That whensoever the Feast of St. Peter comes or the Feast of the aforesaid Altars or the Feast of the Nativity of our Lord or of Easter or the Feast of all-All-Saints or any other double Feast than all the aforesaid Indulgences and Pardons are doubled Also in the Feast of the Annunciation of blessed Mary the Virgin there are 1000 years of pardon Again from the above-named Feast unto the Kalends of August Come here 's your man Sir no less than 12000 years of pardon together with a 3d part better and better yet give me this Church for my mony there are 12000 years of pardon and as many Lents and the forgiveness of the third part of all the sins Poor St. Peter how hath this abominable Harlot dress'd thee up I am sure thou didst teach the world other Doctrine but this Pardon-monger hath not told us the price I believe if we go round the Church we shall find the reckoning dear before we come out Item whosoever ascendeth or goeth up the stairs of St. Peter devoutly to him are granted for every step seven years of pardon by Pope Alexander St. Peters steps being well trod and the example of his Master our Lord Christ will produce a better than Pope Alexander could ever give but as for the Stone steps in St. Peters Church what pardon they procure let Pope Alexander inform you but unless he gives better evidence than his own words we will give him leave to lie and our selves the liberty of not giving credit to what he saith In the Church of St. Paul without the walls ye have 47000 years of pardon Here is more pardon than many an honest man can tell what to do withall or at least more than he will have occasion for Item in the day of St. Pauls Conversion ye have a 100 years of pardon Item on Childermas day 4000 years of pardon Item in Vtas of St. Martin when the Church was hallowed 14000 years of pardon and as many Karins and the third part of all sins released Moreover he that visiteth the Church of St. Paul two Sundays doth as much as though he went on pilgrimage
