cuiusquam secundas hinc enim maximè Cataphrigum ac Nouatianorum haereses tumuerunt quas buccinis sonantibus non sapientibus etiam Tertullianus inflauit dū secundas nuptias tanquam illicitas dente maledico confudit quas omnino licitas Apostolus sobria mēte concedit Ab hac sanitate doctrinae nullius indocti nullius docti disputatione mouearis nec ita extollas bonū tuum vt quod malum non est tanquam malum crimineris alienum Like as the goodnes of holy virginitée which thy doughter hath chosen doeth not condemne once mariyng so neither doeth thy widowhode condemne seconde mariages For from hence swelled the heresies of the Cataphriges and Nouatians whiche heresies Tertullian blowed vp with trumpettes that sounded greatly although thei were not very wise when as through his railyng he confoūded the seconde mariages as vnlawfull whiche notwithstandyng the Apostle very descritly graunteth as lawfull From this soundnesse of doctrine see thou be not moued by any mannes disputyng or reasonyng whether he be learned or vnlearned neither so extoll thyne owne good thyng that thou shouldest accuse as euell and laye it to an other mannes charge that whiche in deede is not euill Marie in deede Cap. ● whiche I had forgotten his foresaied holy writer Innocent in the same Epistle of Decrees telleth vs that yet it is written in scripture Vnius vxoris virum iterū sacerdotes mei semel nubant Et alibi sacerdotes mei non nubant amplius That is an husbande of one wife And again Let my priestes marrie once And in an other place Lette not my Priestes marrie often Now whether he wrote thus that God ment it of his Priestes or Paule ment it of his priestes or Innocent ment it of his Priestes I wotte not but our Romishe Busshoppes and Priestes of these daies meaneth it of no priestes now Therfore thei agree like Harpe and Harrowe yet thei agree all with sainct Hierome whose aucthoritée is of it self to bee had in credite of euery good Christian man Cap. xi ● ●● saieth maister Martin whiche Hierome geueth so many slaunderous names to Laye mennes mariages that Tatian neuer spake halfe so many Whom this maister Martin foloweth so well Cap. 13. HH ● that he saieth that mariage is the basest state of life in Christes churche yet he saieth it is very honorable Loe ye see how he honoreth it euen as the Iewes honored Christ when thei sette a croune of thorne on his head and put a purple robe on hym and saluted hym with the name of a kyng Euen so doeth this man kisse Mariage with Aue rabbi Haile maister Cap. 13. II. ● Yet he saieth that married folkes can not come to the feast and the feast is no other but eternall life And saieth that vpon this place sainct Paule grounded his saiyng scz he whiche hath a wife is deuided And saieth that marriage is halfe dissuaded by sainct Paule Cap. xi BB. ● and moreouer calleth Marriage but distraction bondage a vexation of the fleshe pentifulnesse and knitteth vp the matter and saieth who can deny but that Paule coumpteth hym that hath a wife to bee tied bounde troubled distracted and in seruitude Now when this doctor wringeth in sainct Paule in suche contorted insinuations yet the Laye men muste thinke that he hath made a wittie booke that thei laugh pretely at hath good sporte therewith where I thinke if Paule were aliue Lib. 2. Heresi 6. ● he would saie that he were distracted of his witte so to abuse his places and saiynges Yea if Epiphanius were aliue he would saie no lesse by hym then he did by a certaine heretike called Hierax who to like purpose and after the same maner distorted these textes of sainct Paule Innupta curat ea quae sunt domini diuisa est vxor virgo propter fornicationem vnusquisque vxorem suam habeat c. The vnmaried virgine careth for the Lordes matters but a wife and a virgine are two yet for the aduoidyng of fornication lette euery manne haue his wife Upon whiche places he concluded saith Epiphanius that Paule praised not mariage but bare with it to auoide further mischief Whiche saied heretike with his adherentes did so rei●cte Matrimonie as also sainct Augustine testifieth the same of them that thei would not haue any suche of their companie that had wiues Thus saith Epiphanius thei pretende the pure virginitée of the churche but yet had no pure consciēce but a conscience marked with an hotte yron forbiddyng mariage Neuerthelesse thei were well and iustly scorned saieth Epiphanius for their dissimulation seyng thei had notwithstandyng women emongeste them whom thei coloured vnder pretēce of doyng them seruice Now compare D.
