Persecuted speaketh ¶ I fear not for death nor passe nor for bands Only in God put I my whole trust For God wil requyre my blod at your hands And this I know that once dye I must Only for Christ my lyfe if I gyue Death is no death but a meane for to lyue 〈◊〉 To the faithfull in London Newcastel and Warwicke to all others wythin the Realme of England that loue the commyng of our Lord Jesus 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 wisheth cō●…aunce in godlynes to the ende V●…hen I remember the feareful threatninges of God pronoūced against ●…ealmes and ●…ous to whō the lyght of Gods word hath bene offered and contemptuously by them refused as my harte ●…fainedli mourneth for your present state dearely beloued in our Sauiour Iesus Christ so do the whole powers of my body tremble and shake for the plages y ● are to come But that Gods true woorde hath bene offered to the Realme of England can none denye eccept such as by the Diuel holden in bōdage god iustly so punishyng their proude inobedience haue neither eyes to see nor vnderstandyng to discerue good from bad nor darknes frō light ●…inst whō none other wise wil I cō tend at this preset thē did the prophet ●…gainst y ● stifnecked stubburn people of Iuda saying ☞ The wrath of the Lord shal not be tourned away tyl he hath fulfylled y ● thoughts of his hart And thus leaue I them as of whose repentaunce there is smal hope to the hādes of him that shal not forgot their horrible blasphemies spokē in 〈◊〉 of Christes truth and of his true minysters And wyth you that vnfaynedlye mourne for the great 〈◊〉 of Gods true religion purpose I to communicate such counsel admonition now 〈◊〉 mine owne pen ●…somtimes it pleased god I shuld proclaime in your cares The end of whiche my admonition is that euen as that you purpose and intend to auoid Gods vengeaunce both in thys lyfe ▪ in the lyfe to come that so ye auoid and flye aswel in body as in spirite al felowship societie wyth idolatours in their idolatrie You shrincke I knowe euen at the first but if an Oratour had the matter in handling he would proue it honest profitable easy and necessary to be done and in euery one point were store inough for a long ●…ration But as I neuer laboured to 〈◊〉 any man in matters of ●…ligion God I take to record in my conscience 〈◊〉 by the very 〈◊〉 and playne infallible truth of Gods word no more mynde I to doo in thys behalfe but this I affirme that to 〈◊〉 from idolatrie is so profitable and so necessarye vnto a Christian that vnlesse he so do all worldly profit tourneth to his perpetual disprofit and condempnation Profit apert●…th either to the bodies or cl●… to the soules of our selues and of our 〈◊〉 Corporall commodites consist in such thinges as mā chiefely 〈◊〉 for the body as rytches estimation long life healthe and 〈◊〉 in earth The only comforte and ioye of the soule is God by hys word ●…lling ignoraunce 〈◊〉 and beath in the place of these placyng true knowledge of him selfe and with the same iustice and life by Christ his Sonne 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 of these aforesaid 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 thē of 〈◊〉 it is that we auoid 〈◊〉 for plaine it is that the soul●… hath neither lyfe nor comfort but by God alone wyth whom idolatours haue no other participatiō thē haue y e Diuels And albeit that abhominable idolatours for a moment triumphe yet approcheth the houre when Gods vengeaunce shal strike not only their soules but euen theyr vyle 〈◊〉 shall be plaged as God before hathe threatned Theyr Cities shalbe 〈◊〉 their land shalbe layd waste their enemies shal dwel in their strong holdes there wyues and daughters shall be de●…led their children shall fall in the

God wh●… knoweth the secretes of harts knoweth that also it displeaseth my self and yet lyke as before I haue bene cōpelled to speake in your presence and in the presence of others such thyngs as were not pleasable to the eares of m●… wherof alas a great part this day are come to pas So that I am compelled now to write with the teares of myne eyes I knowe to your dyspleasure But deare brethren be subiecte vnto God and gyue place to hys wrathe that we may escape hys euerlastyng vengeaunce My penne I trust shal nowe be no more vehement then my tonge hathe bene oftner then once not only be●…ore you but also before the chyese of the ●…alme What was said in Newcastel ●…arwicke before the sweate I trust yet some in those places beareth in mynde What vpon the daye of Alsayntes that yeare that the Duke of Somerset was last apprehended let ●…castel wytnes What before him ●…hat then was Duke of Northumberland in the towne of Newecastel and in other places mo What before the Kynges Maiestie at

not speake the stones and tymber of those places shall cry in fyre and beare record that the truthe was spoken and shall absolue me in that behalfe in the daye of the lorde Suspect not brethren that I delyte ●…n your calamytyes or in the plages that shal fal vpō that vnthankfull nacion No God I take to recorde that my hart mourneth wythin me that I am cruciate for remembraunce of your troubles But if that I shoulde ●…ase then dyd I as well agaynst my conscience as also against my knowledge and so should I be gylty of the bloud of those that pearished for lacke of admonition yet should the plage not a moment the longer be delayed for the Lord hath appointed the dai of his ●…geaunce before the whych he fendeth trumpets Messengers that hys elect watching with praiers so●… may by his mercye
