in Purgatory heauen and hell I raygne as a moste tryumphāt Empresse So that to them that in those places do dwell My vertue dothe extend bothe more and les What shall I speake of my beneficence Toward the soules of them that be mortall To saue their soules I am of great excellence When soeuer on me they earnestly call My Chaplens thorow me offer dayly For all such as with mony do them hyre An holy sacrifice propiciatory And so deliuer their soules out of the myre The synnes of the whole worlde thorow me Are clerely remitted and put awaye My mighty power is to make them all fre Which for remission of synnes mony do paye Whatsoeuer synne is committed Be it pryde whordome thefte or blasphemy By me it is vtterly dispatched And the synners made bothe pure and holy For clensyng of the soule noman dothe nede To seke after any other Phisicion Be that liste vnto me for to make spede Shall haue of me a sufficient purgacion As men dayly do greuously offend So muste they haue a dayly sacrifice To be rydde of your synnes if ye entend To haste vnto me ye muste nedes deuice For in me my marked marchauntes eche on● Offer vp Christ the sonne of God dayly They crucifye hym agayne though he be go●● And offer a sacrifice Propiciatory And the sacrifice that they do offer Is of so greate efficacie mighte and poure As that whiche Christ offered to hys father Whan he hanged on the Crosse at the laste houre● By Christes death the synne originall Was onely put awaye as many holde But I dispatche all synnes vniuersall As witnesse my Chaplens bothe stoute and bolde Folish are they therfore that take thought for sy● As though it were a burden intollerable ●eyng for a litle money they maye wynne Forgyuenes of synnes and become vnculpable When the masse begyues they maye be synnefull But before the masse be perfectly ended My smered Chaplens all synne frō them shall pul And make them to be thorowly saued For the blessed masse is not so sone sayde Of the massinge Chaplens at the altare But all the debtes for synnes are wholy payde And they brought agayne to Gods fauer Thus in heauen earthe hell and Purgatory I rayg●e as a moste triumphant Goddesse All thinges are blessed by me and made wealthy Deliuered from sorowe and all discresse Agayne what a number of idle bellyde priestes Besydes monkes heremites Chanons and fryers Do I fede to be makers of Christes Whiche otherwise shoulde fall into the bryers I make them to be hadde in reputatcion I make them to sitte hyest at the table I make them to be called Syrs euery one I make them worshipfull and honorable I make them in their apparell to be Galaunte and pleasaunte in euery mans syghte I make them greatest in euery degre I make them makers of God almighty I make them to walke in goodly longe gounes With typpet●es of sarcenet about their neckes I make them to weare forked cappes on their shauē crounes I make thē to do what they list without checkes I make them of the labour of other mens hādes To liue idely lyke men of great substaunce I enryche them with gaye houses and landes I make them to lyue all in pleasance I make them in loue with other mens wyues I make their chyldren to syt by other mens fyres I make them to lede pleasaunte wealthy lyues Euen according to their hartye despres I make them searchers of all mens secretes Thorow holy auriculare confession I make them to playe many praty feates And yet fewe spye their abhominacion By me alone they mayntayne their whoring Their horses their hauckes their hondes their spānels By me alone haue they their pleasaūt liuing Bunning here and there or where they list els I make the order of priesthoode honorable I onely am the s●aye of all massemongers It is I that make the masse priestes able To matche with the best and to be called masters If I were not thei should haue many euel happes If I were not their gouns should sone be threde bare If I were not their hayre should grow thorow their carpes If were not they should haue bothe carcke care I wolde therfore that noman should maruel Though massingpriestes do stoutly holde with me For they are certen and do know right well That the best floure of their garlande I must be Therefore whan ye heare thē loude lye at Paules crosse As many in their sermōs haue done of late Blame them not for they haue had a longlosse Therfore it is now hye tyme for them to prate Masses Purgatory and prayeng for the dead Are the chief pyllers of their popish kyngdome If these thre thinges were once abrogated Then come they streyghtwayes vnto confusion I woldē therfore that my chaplens shoulde prate harde For these thre thinges aboue all other Or els their kyngdome shall neuer go forewarde By swete sainct Mary Christes owne mother For holy auriculare confession I wolde haue them also prate harde harde harde For if they haue not that popish inuencion Their market will be altogether marde By that they shall know all mens secrety By that they shall syt as Goddes in mens consciēce By that they shall bring the people wonderfully Into all submission and obedience By that they shall make Lordes to thē for to lout● Ladys and gentlemen shall they bring vnder By that as Gods they shall raygne rounde aboute And know where stuffe is against the next yeare Thus haue I tolde you parte of my vertues And what I am able to do in euery place I suppose ye thincke them very straunge newes Yet shall ye fynde them trew by oure Lady of gracē My massing chaplens and the massehunters Know these thinges too be trew that I haue spoken Their diligent cōming to the masse euers Is hereof a very manifest token Oh somtime here in England gloriously I raygned as a Goddesse supernal Tyll Gods worde in the time of kyng Henry Began to be knowne in places ouer all Thorow the scripture and other treatises With the sermons of diuers learned menne To be espied began my fantasies So that many to me did not greatly leane Yet thorow the s●outenes of some prelates Which euer loued me for my fathers sake I styl continued among my pyldepates And the moste parte of men did me wel take Notwithstanding my people religious As monkes chanons heremites nonnes and fryers Began among the people to be odious And were called hypocrites and lyers Their hypocrisye and fayned holynes Came to lighte euery daye more and more Their vnchaste chastitie also certes Made all good people them to abhorre Their abhominable lyfe was so manifest Besydes all their wicked Idolatrie That all godly men together thought it best All their houses to suppresse vtterly Suppreste they were vnto my great discomforte And bothe the I and they at the doores thruste out Few had we then that wolde vs supporte So were we compelled

exhorte all men of eche degre To praye deuoutly for the soules departed With solemne Placebo and Dirige And a masse of Requiem thereunto added Tell them it is very meritorious And a good dede so for the soules to praye Masses and Diriges make them ful ioyous And cause their paynes greatly to decaye Tell them that Christe is not so oure mediatoure But we haue nede of some good saincte also To be vnto God oure intercessoure Or els vnto heauens blysse can we not go Tell them that auriculare confession Deuised by pope Innocent the thirde Is so necessary vnto saluacion That without it sinnes can not be remitted Tell thē that priestes haue power to forgyue syn Whan so euer they saye Ego absoluote Therfore their synnes to confesse let them begyn And from all their synnes they shal sone be fre Tell them that the gylding of images And paynting of tabernacles also Hath bene greatly praysed in all ages And openeth a waye vnto heauen for to go Tell them that pylgrimage goyng likewise Is very profitable for the soule Exhorte them to bring in agayne that gyse And to drincke of s. Edmundes pardon boulle Tell them that to be burried in s. Fraunces coule Is very good for the soules saluacion Though it be neuer so lousy or foule As in their holy rule is made mencion Tell them that workes done of a good insent Auayleth no les vnto saluacion Then thinges appointed by Gods commaundemē● To be done of the Christen congregracion Tell them whatsoeuer holy churche bidde Though to the scripture it be clene contrary That of all men muste be fulfilled And neuer aske any question why Tell them they muste it thincke it sufficient That holy churche hath so ordayned And though it be not Gods commaundement Yet tel them it muste nedes be obeyed As the Idolatrous priestes in tymes paste Cried the temple of the Lord the temple of the Lord So to crye let it euer be your caste The holy churche the holy church with one accord Deface the doctrine of the fore preachers So muche as ye can to the vttermoste By calling them coblers tynckers and taylers And vnlearned asses in euery coste But looke ye call your selfs master doctor And Graduate of the vniuersite Preache in your hoode and set forthe your honor And so declare what learned men ye be As for Dorbel Duns Thomas and Tartar Gabriel Lombarde master of the sentence Gorram Alberte and other of that se●te Sa●e ye haue sene them though many yeares ●ēce Tell them that the doctrine which ye teach nowe Is catholycke olde and olde agayne Holy churche did it alwayes allowe And in their counsails euer it mayntayne Agayn I wolde haue you lyke stoute Nemroth Cryeout at Paules crosse againste the Printers Saye that they are the cause that the worlde goeth So euel with our mother holy churche eue●s Say with their bokes they marre al the market And fyll the whole realme with heresye For to rede those bokes all the worlde is set And to holy churche wil not them selfs applye ●aye that all the bokes that haue bene printed Here in England by the space of syxe year● Are all with great heresyes infected And wel worthie to be set on a fyre The Catechismes and the boke of comm● praye● The Homilies and Articles also With al other bokes intreating of the scripture Are worthie into the fyre for to go Crieout that all suche bokes maye be condemned Eyther by an acte of parliamēt Or elles by proclamacion incalled And so afterwarde to be shortly brent This thing shal auaunce my kingdome greatly And set bothe you and me in a goodly staye Therefore I wolde haue you the matter to applye That it mighte be dispatched out of the waye Furthermore if there do any arise Speakinge againste me and my kyngedome To laye hande on hym streightwayes deuise And cruelly caste him into prysonne Manace him with wordes bothe fearce and fel Threaton him with faggot fyre and halter And to put it in vse ye shal do wel That other thereby maye learne to feare I wolde not haue you dispute with the scripture But rather with halter fyre and faggot For these argumentes are so stronge and sure That none of them all can vndo that knotte By farre means agayne se what ye can do Promise them a benefice or prebend Saye ye will be their hartie frendes also If they wil become conformable and amende Thus by foule or fayre means proue mas●rise Though it be cleane against youre conscience And euermore let this be youre deuise To maintayne me and my magnificence If ye wil do after this myne aduertisement So shal bothe you and I right we● prosper But if ye beginne to be negligent Then shal we sone perish altogether Therfore if ye tender my dignite My worshippe my honour and my excellen●e Looke that in these thinges diligent ye be So shal ye long enioy my presence Otherwise I shall surely be so hunted Of the protestantes my fo●s mortal That to fle agayne I shalbe compelled As a slaue bothe miserable and thraul And then shal ye also come doune doune And ●e had no more in estimacion Laughed to scorne shal ye be with your shauē croune And vtterly broughte vnto confusion The cause why I geue you suche a charge is this It was tolde me of a frende sence my comming That the masse should be dryuē out of Englād twise And the second tyme shalbe past all helpinge The masse at the firste tyme shal recouer Her bannishment righte well quod that my friend● But the seconde time shalbe for euer For bannished shal she be vnto the ende Agayne ye knowe Christes prophecye Euery plante that God hath not planted Shalbe plucked vp by the rootes vtterly And be caste awaye as a thing fayned Of God ceries haue not I my foundacion But of a sorte of popes patched together Therfore muste I nedes come vnto confusion Because my foundacion is so slender I knowe also there are a greate number Whiche come to me with very hollowe hartes Wishing at the deuel bothe me and my masses For playeng suche popishe and iugling partes Suche I tell you are not to be trusted Although outwardely they beare a fayre face They do but looke when I shalbe confounded Then wil they crye doune with her apace Furthermore it standeth you also in hande To looke vpon this matter diligently For I do you all to vnderstande The cause is yours also and not myne onely The papistes quod my frēde shal twise haue a fal In this realme of England certenly The fyrste right wel recouer they shal The second shalbe without remedye They shal then of the people be so hated That none shal vouchsafe to haue thē at their bourde Yea of them selfs they shal so be ashamed That thei shal couer their crouns with a cowtourd And then saide he is their vtter destruccion come For after that time shal theey neuer more ryse But Christes gospel euen vnto the dome Shal in this realme florishe in moste goodly wyse Of oure fyrste fall we haue had experience Of that we may wel iudge what shal folow Let vs therefore takehede with all aduertence For when that come then begynne oure sorow Watche therefore my chaplens chāpions stoute Take tyme whyle the tyme haue ye maye Prye spye and diligently looke aboute For I tell you trueth the tyme wil awaye Remember the lessons that I haue geuen you Profitable they are for my kyngdome Looke that those diligently ye ensue Than to good fortune maye we happe to come We shal yet for a whyle triumphe and raygne We shal beare the rout donn with the Gospellers We shal pleasantly oure estate mayntayne And of al men be counted ioly rufflers You as gentle men shal raygne in all contrise I as a goddesse shalbe of greate renowme And by this means to syng I maye deuise Resurrexi adhucsum tecum ¶ Valete Plaudite O aulas O missas O sacrifices O concionatores O sacerdotes O presbyteros O castos O papistas O ollas O nugas O carnifices O cornicatores O
