sinnes of the soule are cleansed and taken away aswell by a creatures milke as by Christ his blood is this the catholike doctrine they brag so much of is this the catholike Church that teacheth such diuinity is this the chaire of S. Peter the seate that cannot erre If it be so then what didst thou meane thou St. Iohn Euangelist to teach that it was Iesus Christ that faithfull witnesse Reuel 1.5 that first begotten from the dead and that Prince of the Kings of the earth euen he and not any creature who hath loued vs and washed vs from our sinnes in his blood sure either must thou recant this doctrine els they that boast themselues to be successors of thy brother Peter may be ashamed of theirs who tell vs that our sins are washt away in her milke as well as by his blood and you that are the dutiful and deuoted children of that Romish sear be Iudges euen your selues in this case what can be said heereunto how can it stand with scripture or with the tenor of true catholike faith or how can it any way be defended that a creatures milke can quench the fire of sinne in the soule as well as Christ his blood Can ye say that heere is onely ascribed to her and her milke a deriued vertue from another and that the original and fundamentall power is onely and wholy in Christ and his blood if it were so it were lesse euill though Christ Iesus may not nor will not bestow the prerogatiues of his Mediatorship on any creature but looke and wade ouer the words againe and again expound them with any fauour that the wordes may beare and you shall not see the least difference Suffocare queo Sanguine Lacte queo Detergere queo Lacte Cruore queo If Lust burne Anger boyle Enuy fret Vaineglory swell I can helpe it with blood so can I with milke I can helpe it with milke so can I with bloud there can be no greater equalitie made betwixt any two thinges in the worlde then here they make betwixt this Bloud and Milke Can it be said that the Author is a Poet and said thus but to make vp the Verse which otherwise wold not haue falne so fitly surely no for a yong versifier can soone shew how the verses might haue run aswell as they do if he had not purposely laboured to sort his verse to his matter and not the matter to the verse For thus he might haue said Detergere queo sanguine Christe tuo with very little alteration And so of the rest but he as truly endeuoured to magnifie the milke as the bloud and therefore without any necessitie of the verse giues the same power place preheminence in euery respect to the milke as to the bloud but had he bene as sound and sincere a Christian as he is a good Poet he might in as good verses haue giuen all the honour to Christ as he deserueth Therefore my deere country-men be no longer seduced by a Religion so fraught with Atheisme blasphemy impyety doe but looke into the Scriptures Counsels or Fathers yea aske the honestest learnedst of your owne religioÌ„ or any except Iesuits or such other like them who frame a religioÌ„ to their owne purposes If this be tollerable Diuinitye that the Milke of the Virgin doth cleanse mans soule from sinne aswell as Christ his bloud If it be not diuinity but blasphemy no Christian doctrine but impiety and yet suffered yea approued in the Romane Church both by doctrine and practise then returne to that truth and holy religion which out of Gods word and according to the purest antiquity is established amongst vs with heart voice ioyne with vs to imbrace and say Amen to that holy doctrine of blessed St. Iohn who saith it is Iesus Christ that loued vs and washed vs from our sinnes by his blood to him be glory for euer and euer Amen This was his religion this is ours oh that it were yours also he sucked this diuinity out of that blessed brest of Gods sonne whereon he leaned and if he had sucked thence this diuinity of the Iesuits that the virgin Mary washed vs from our sinnes by her milke surely he would neuer haue concealed it from vs nor haue depriued her of the honour nor vs of the comfort that thereby might accrewe both to her and vs for he was her sonne by her owne adoption yea her sonne by the gift and nomination of her sonne and sauiour yea her sonne in loue duty and all respectiuenesse could he then or would he in any sort obscure her due glory would he giue too much to her sonne and too little to her would he giue all that to her sonne which in parte was hers can this may this or dare this be immagined by any Iesuit If not then how dare they extend their deuotion beyond his and ascribe that to her which he neuer did yea that to her which he appropriates to Iesus Christ If they thinke that Peter had more deuotion then Iohn 1. Pet 2.24 hearken then what he saith Iesus Christ his owne selfe bare our sinnes in his body on the tree let the words be pondered Iesus Christ saith he bare our sinnes true say they but so did the virgin Mary also No saith Peter he himselfe his owne selfe bare them yea in his body he bare them in his body say they that is true but he beares them in his mysticall body in his members much more therefore in his mother which is more then many members of his body nay saith St Peter he bare our sinnes his owne selfe in his body but what body euen that body that was on the tree therefore if St Peter preach true diuinity then is this doctrine of your Teachers hainous blasphemy All that may be imagined for their defence at the best is this that all this is but poeticall hyperbolicall or proceedes from the passion height of deuotion but that in truth and earnest he ascribes all to Christ to his blood makes his prayer to him and puts the confidence of his heart in him alone but least any man should haue the least suspition of him this way or thinke so good a thought of him he deales yet more plainely and to preuent all such thoughts and obiections he makes his prayer both to the mother and the sonne without any difference in the world to the one for her milke to the other for his blood for thus he saith Ergo par ens et nate meis ad vertite votis Lac peto depereo sanguinem vtruÌ„que volo That is Mother and Sonne giue eare to what I craue I begge this milke that blood both would haue Heere is plaine dealing it is not the Sonne and his blood that will serue his turne he must also haue the mother and her milke is not this good catholike doctrine and deuotion but further is it not strange to see how he

blasphemy following blame the heart that indighted it the hand that wrote it the Religion that allowes it and not the pen that discouers it Thus then begins the Iesuits Gospell Haereo lac inter meditans interque cruoreÌ„ inter delicias Vberis et Lateris That is My thoughts are at a stand of Milke and Blood delights of brest side which yeilds most good HEarken thou blessed Apostle Paul if thou in heauen canst heare the blasphemy on earth 11. Cor. 2.2 thou that didst preach and write that thou desiredst to know nothing but Iesus Christ him crucified thou that didst teach the Churches onely to know beleeue in Christ for saluation almost 20 times in thy Epistles hast magnified his Blood without once mencioning the virgin Mary or her Milke Heare and be astonished at this that some who professe to be thy Disciples or thy fellowes rather cannot tell whether to choose that bloud of the mediator or the milke of a woman At least harken thou blessed spirit of truth thou that canst and wilt heare thou that didst inspire those holy truths into that holy Apostle behold a religion risen vp in the world that dare compare the bloud of that God who was by thee conceiued with the milke of that woman who was the mother of his humanity and was saued from hell and damnation by that bloud and that dare allow her professors to make doubt whether to esteeme the greater delight of their soules her milke or his bloud and we for reprouing this must be accounted heretickes heare from heauen we beseech thee and Iudge betwixt vs. The blasphemer proceedeth Et dico si forte oculos ad Vbera tendo Diua Parens MaÌ„mae gaudia posco tuae Sed dico sideinde oculos ad Vulnera verto O Iesu Lateris gaudia malo tuae That is And say aloud when I the Teates do see O Goddesse mother lend thy Brests to mee But thus I beg when on the wounds I thinke O Iesu giue me from thy side to drinke What before he deliuered more darkely now he maketh plainer if any doubt what milke what blood he meant hee answereth our Ladies Milke and Iesus Christ his blood but what doth popery make question whether of these two is better is this their holy Catholike Romane faith If not let their words be Iudge I stand musing saith he and cannot tel whether to take milke or blood If I looke at her paps then I long for milke If to his sides then I would haue blood Marke how indifferent a papist is whether he receiue the one or the other is not this euill enough a man would thinke so yet hearken what followeth and we shall heare worse but let vs do it with feare and reuerence of that glorious name and pretious blood which are blasphemed Rem scio prensabo si fas erit vbera dextra Laeua prensabo vulnera si dabitur in English thus Long haue I mus'd now know I where to rest for with my right hand I will graspe the brest If so I may presume as for the wounds with left I le catch them thus my zeale abounds Hetherto he doubted now he is resolued but such a doubt and such a resolution Christian eares neuer heard of he doubted whether were better the blood of God or the Milke of a creature the diuell himselfe neuer doubted hereof but now what is his resolutioÌ„ doth it make amendâ— yes doubtles as the Pope vseth to make Christ amends when he hath dishonored him I was at a stand saith he whether to take and now I resolue I will haue both both are so good I will refuse neither her milke his bloud both so precious both so powerfull both so vertuous as I will haue both Both are good and so good as hardly can I finde difference but if there be any it is that the milke is more excellent and therefore with my right hand I will make it sure mine if I may be so bolde as to touch it or if it be lawful for a sinners soule to taste so glorious so vnualuable and deuine a liquor as is the Milke of the Mother and as for the childe it is well for him if he may follow his Mother and haue the next place to her therefore if he please to giue me leaue I will lay holde with my left hand on his wounds O glorious God the eternall sonne of the eternall Father thou blessed Iesus Christ the stay comfort of all Christian soules heare in heauen thine holy habitation this hainous blasphemy and iudge thy owne cause And if it fal out that any contagion of sin catch holde on me the writer or any the readers hereof by not trembling or not sufficiently detesting such fearfull impiety as this that is past or that that is to come vouchsafe in mercy to forgiue it and to wash it away with that most precious bloud of thine whereto all the creatures in the world are not worthy to be compared And though this that 's past be abhominable yet with reuerence to thy holy name and pretious blood giue vs leaue to discouer the height of their iniquity which still goeth forward in more horrible fearefull manner for thus singes the Iesuit Lac Matris miscere volo cum sanguine nati Non possum Antidoti nobiliore frui that is And of her Milke mixt with his blood I le make The soueraignst Cordiall sinfull soule can take So now Christ Iesus shall haue satisfaction if there were a fault afore for if he complaine that the mother of his flesh a woman and a creature haue the right-hand when himselfe and his merits must take the left or none heere they will make him amends for that he may haue no cause to complaine for want of place or precedence her milke and his blood will he mingle both together and so make a soueraigne compound cordiall for his soule But what a mixture of milke and blood of the blood of God with the milke of a creature and is now the blood of the Lambe of God but one of the simples in that cordiall Antidote that must both restore and preserue the life of mans soule ye heauens be astonied at this so may we well say for so said the Prophet at a matter of farre lesse wonder hearken O Christendome and al ye people nations languages to whome the blessed name of Iesus Christ hath sounded that poore paschall Lambe of the Iewes that was but a shadowe of our Sauiour the signe and sacrament and in some sort the meanes and instrument of the Israelites temporall preseruation might not nay needed not to haue any thing mingled with the blood thereof Exodus 12.5 c. but the blood alone being sprinckled on their dores deliuered them from the stroke of the destroying Angel this was their passouer saith the Apostle Christ our passouer is sacrificed for vs 1. Cor. 5.7 shall this then be true of their passouer
