to hym as you woulde be done to Iuuentus I pray God geue me grace so for to do That vnto hys wil I maye be obedyent Good counsell Here you shall reseaue Christes testament To comfort your consience when nede shal requyre To learne the contentes there of se that you be dilygent The which all chrystian men ought to desyre For it is the wel or fountayne moste clere Out of the which doth spryng swete consolacyon To all those that thyrst after eternal saluacyon Knowledge Ther in shal you fynde most holsome presaruacion Both in troubles percicucions sicknes aÌ„d aduersytye And a sure defence in the time of temptacyon Agaynst whom y e deuel can not preuayle w t all his army And if you perseuer therin vnfaynedly It wyl set your hart at suche quietnes and rest Which can not neuer be turned with stormes nor tempest Good counsell With this thyng you must neyther flatter nor iest But stedfastly beleue it euery day and houre And let youre conuersacyon opiÌ„ly protest That of your hart it is y e most precious treasure And then your godly example shal other men procure To learne and exercyse thesame also I praye God strengthen you so for to do Iuuentus Now for this godly knowledge whych you ha â—â—â—rought me to I beseche the lyuynge God reward you agayn From your company I wyl neuer departe nor go So longe as in thys lyfe I do remayne For in thys boke I se manyfest and playne That he that foloweth hys owne lustes imagynacyon Kepeth the ready path to euerlast dampnacyon And he that leadete a godly conuersacyon Shal be borught to suche quietnes ioy and peace Which in comparison passeth all worldly gloriation Whiche can not endure but shortly cease Both the time and houre I may now blesse That I met with you father good councel to bryng me to the knowledge of his heueuenly Gospel Knowledge This your profession I like veri wel So that you entend to lyue accordyng I praye God your lyuing do not rebell But euer agre vnto your sayng That when ye shal make acountes or rekening Of thys talent whych you haue receued you may be one of those w t whom y e Lord shalbe pleased Good councell For thys coÌ„uersacion of youth y e lords nam be prased Let vs now departe for a reason Exit Knowledge To geue God the glori it is conuenient and reason yf thou will depart I will not tary Exit Iuuentus And I wil neuer forsake your company Whyle I lyue in thys world Here entreth the Deuel Oh oh all to late I trow thys geare wil come to naught For I perceyue my powre doth a bate For al the policie that euer I haue wrought Many and sundry wayes I haue sought To haue the word of god deluded vtterly Oh for sorow yet it will not be I haue done the best that I can And my ministers also in euery place to rote it clene from the hart of man And yet for all that it florisheth a pace I am sore in drede to shew my face My auctoritie and workes are so greatly dyspysed My inuentions and all that euer I haue deuised Oh oh ful well I know the cause that my estimacion doth thus decay the olde people woulde beleue stil in my lawes But the yonger sort leade them a contrary way they wyl not beleue they playnly say In olde traditions and made by men But they wil lyue as the scripture teacheth theÌ„ Out I crye vpon them they do me open wroÌ„g to bring vp their chyldren thus in knowlage For if they wil not folow my wayes wheÌ„ thei are yong yt is harde turning them when they come to age I must nedes fynd some meanes this matter to swage I meane to turn theyr hartes from the scripture quite that in carnal pleasurs they may haue more delyght Wel I wil go taste to enfect this youth through the entisement of my sonne hypocrysie And worke some proper feate to stope his mouth that he may lede hys lyfe carnally I had neuer more nede my matters to apply Oh my chyld hypocrisie where art thou I charge y t of my blessing apeare before me now Oh oh quod he kepe agayne the sowe I come as faste as I can I warrant you Here entreth hypocrysie Hipocrysye Where is he that hath the sowe to sell I wil geue hym money yf I lyke her well wether it be sowe or hogge I do not greatly care For by my occupacion I am a bochare Deuell Oh my chylde how doest thou fare Hipocrysye Sancti amen who haue we there By the masse I wyl bye none of thy ware thou arte a chapman for the deuell What my sonne canst thou not tell Deuell Who is here and what I am I am thyne owne father Sathan Hipocrycye Be you so syr I crye you mercy than you may say I am homely lacke learnyng to lyken my fathers voyce vnto a sowes groning But I pray you shew me the cause and why that you called me hether so hastely A Hypocrisie I am vndone vtterly Deuell Utterly vndone nay stop there hardely Hipocrysye For I my selfe do know the contrary By dayly experience Do not I yet raygne a brode And as longe as I am in the worlde you haue some treasure and substaunce I suppose I haue ben the flower In settyng forth thy lawes and power Without any delay By the masse if I had not bene thou haddest not ben worth a flaunders pin At thys present daye the tyme were to long nowe to declare How many and great the number are Whiche haue deceyued be And brought cleane from Gods lawe Unto thy yoke and awe Through the intisement of me I haue ben bused â–ª since y e world began to graffe thy lawes in the hart of man Where they ought to be refused And I haue so mingled gods coÌ„mauÌ„demeÌ„tes with vaine zeales blind intents that they be greatly abused I set vp great ydolatry With a kynd of fylthy Sodometry to geue mankynd a fall And I brought vp suche supersticion Under the name of holynes and religyon that
