Â¶ AN EXCELLENT AND A right learned meditacion compiled in two Prayers most frutefull and necessary to be vsed and said of al true English men in these daungerous daies of affliction for the comfort and better stay of the christen coÌ„science bewailing the deserued plages of England Psalme I. Call vpon me saith the Lorde in the day of trouble and I shall deliuer the and thou shalt honor me Prynted at Roane by an Englysh Scolers copie by Michael VVodde the third daye of Ianuarye Anno Do. M. D. LIIII A Praier OH almightie euer liuing most merciful Lorde God the dere father of our lord and sauiour Iesus Christe and through him our most gratious good father whose prouidence is ouer al whose wisdom and righteousnes is sene ouet al as thi mercy euen in the middest of most miseries is tasted of all In dede we haue deserued most horrible plages by re ason of our vnthankfulnes coÌ„tempt and slaundrous abusing of thy most holy gospel which most pleÌ„teously putely thou diddest geue vs with such a Prince to propagate and set furth the same as neuer sith EnglaÌ„d was Christened was known the like VVe I say haue deserued not onely the taking awaye of this our deare Prince and the benefite of the mistery of thy pure gospel but also all other most terrible plages that can be deuised for great and hainous are our offences therfor iust thou art righteous are thy iudgements if as thou hast begunne thou shalt continue to poure out vppon vsthy searful plagues and indignations But gratious Lorde in thine anger bicause thou art accustomed to remember merci and ful wel knowest wherof we are made what we at able to beare we besech the which art rich in mercy and plentiful to all theÌ„ that cal vpoÌ„ the that for thi names sake through Christ thou woldest correct vs acordiÌ„g to thy swete mercye and not in thy soure fury indignation Much better it is for vs deare father and more tollerable that we should yeld our selues into thy handes to be chastened of the then to fall into the hands of thy enemies as Dauid praied For great is thy mercy against the against the only haue we sinned and broken thi holy commaundements But louing Lord and almightie God father wel thou knowest we haue not sinned against the deuil the world the pope his prelates neither against the quenes highnes and politik maiestrates of the Realme so that iustly haue thei no right or power to punish vs. How be it thou mayest iustly vse them as thi fearse rodde against vs. But good God and heauenly father against them haue we not be haued oure selues that rightly and iustly thei can be thought to punish vs Yea rather thei wishe that with them horribly we would displease and sinne against thee for nothing shuld it greue theÌ„ if we were horrible rebels against the blasphemers of thi name idolaters worshippers of stockes and stones false seruers of the adulterers theues dronkerds murtherers glottons oppressours and altogether ouerwhelmed in mischief But this is our sinne and offence against theÌ„ bicause we prech beleue and confesse the God the fa ther to be the true and only God Iesus Christ thi dere sonne to be the only Lord Sauiour Bishop Prist mediatour and the holy spirit to be the only comfortor viuificator couÌ„ celour and master of all truth thy written worde to be the lantern of our feet the sufficieÌ„t doctrine of our saluation This dere Lord is a sinne against theÌ„ bicause we wil not serue the after the tradicions of men But as in thy worde by thy sonne and Apostles thou hast taught vs there fore are thei angry wroth and persecute vs. If we wold worship bread instead of Christ cast of our care and Crede of the satisfactori and propiciatory sacrifice whiche thy sonne our Lorde did make once for all in his owne body himselfe to the perfect sanctifying foreuer of all that shalbe saued and come and bi their propiciatory sacrifices in that abho minable idoll the masse Yf we wold cast of thy commaundements to folow good intentes to serue the in a tong we know not to prai vnto sain tes to bie pardons to runne a pilgrimage gate going to offer candels tapers to images to bie trentals dirigies to say as they say and do as thei do submitting our selues to the faith of the Antichristian popysh diuelish church cleane contrary froÌ„ the faith of thy catholicke and true church which is grouÌ„ded and builded vpoÌ„ thi dear child Iesus Christ who as he is the fouÌ„dation so is he the fulnesse of al whereof we al receyue the very glew which coupleth knitteth together euery one of vs to grow go forwardes into a perfect man being made of thee vnto vs wisdome righteousnes sancti fying and redemption that our reioysing might be in him which also is our head from whom coÌ„meth our life by the woorkyng of his spirite which is kept alwaies aliue in vs so long as we sucke of the bloud natural ioyse which descendeth from our head into the meÌ„bers that is to say so long as we stycke and abyde by his written word Gospell not suffering the same to putrifie corrupt by admitting false gloses and expositions of mens own braynes deuises not contained in thy booke of the Byble I sai deare Lord if we would do thus leauing the water in the wel of life drink of their dyrtie dygged pittes and cestorns then shoulde we haue peace with them then would not the diuel rage then would the world wrestle no more against vs then wold the Pope his prelates promote vs then wold the quene be mercifull the Magistrats our good masters euen as thy deare child saith If you wer of the world the worlde woulde loue his owne Here therfore looke downe O merciful father towards vs and a fearce iudge towards al such our enemies as are not to be conuerted for they are no lesse thine enemies then ours â–ª so that in perse cuting vs they persecute the and punish the. For this word which we preach beleue and confesse is not our worde but thy word not our expositions or coÌ„struinges but the expositions and construinges of thy holye Spirite This geare the deuyll can not abyde but would haue this place and be to vs a god The Pope his prelats wold raigne in mens consciences and for gods word they woulde haue vs to beleue theyr stynckyng tradicions councels decrees lies The quene and Magistrates in place of thy son Iesus Christ woulde place their abhominable idol of bread in place of our prest after the order of Melchisedecke they would place preestes after the order of Baal Antichrist In steede of Christes sacrifyce they wold thrust out vnto vs an horrible sacriledge and spoylyng
