other newes His gotish hart would right soone ake there whooredome for to vse Their heads there from their shoulders leape which so them selues abuse But Pope receaues the golden rent of whooredomes filthy sin To decke his crowne for whoores do bring him mickle treasure in Geneuian men that there haue séene true discipline take place Hold Rome sinke of Sodomitrie and Papists past all grace They séeke no whoore though Romaines do it is their common trade As may appeare by such a Knaue as this complaynt hath made For sure a merry day it was when whoores in euery stréete The Papists might

fruites of Papists blynde loe here the hartes of those Whose traitrous slaundring tonges do shew they are prefest Gods foes Of Sathans seede which loueth lyes and sclaunders to blase out Against the truth and Church of God I put you out of dout Whose eyes do weere and téeth do gnashe at sincere Preachers true Because they see what good successe doth after them ensue This Maister VVyborne well is knowne thou Papist to thy shame And all the rable of thy rout that seekest him to defame To ●e a man of learning graue of iudgement sound and right A maryed Minister he is of lyuing most vpright A worthy Pastor of Gods flocke a zealous teacher knowne Which hath in deede by studious payne much popery ouerthrowne A modest man and curteous of gentle sprits and milds Who séekes the hurt I dare wel

of Christ which you do all reiect Like Romish Rebels hopyng styll the darkning of thys day But first I trust all popish knaues shall be the gallowes pray And where thou sayest thou darst pronounce that time the truth shall trye That VVyborne must trust to his héeles or els in Smithfielde fry This happy time hath tryed in déede out truth to your decay And to the ruine of your rout which hope but

your counsels fooles God hath layd open now Your traitrous harts which vnto God and Queene will neuer bow Darst thou pronounce thou traitor hold that VVyborne hence must flee Is neither godly feare at

Gods Sayntes to kyll and slay Stay Papist packe vp Holburne hill for you the fitter way Shal VVyborne trust vnto his héeles No VVyborne trust in God And Carts shall trusse vp these in time to Tyburne loade by loade Shal thousands packe for feare of you thou Traytour darst thou say When thou thine hast well obtaynd old Saturnes second day There is no cause God haue the prayse but thousandes of his sect Of other landes that worship Christ may here themselues protect And boldnes more encreaseth still through Gods almighty grace When traitrous Papists dare not once to shew their double face For
