a Colledge for a society of writers against the superstitious Idolatries of the Romane Synagogue the which happily might be like the Tower of Dauid where the strong men of Israel might haue sheildes and targets to fight the Lords battaile Is it time for your selues to dwell in your seiled houses and this houselye waste Remember I beseech you the words of Azariah vnto King Asa and the men of Iuda The Lord is with you while you are with him and if ye seeke him hee will bee found of you but if ye forsake him he will forsake you Bee not cold in a good cause flie not out of the field play not the cowards in the Lords holy wars for albeit happily your selues are like for your time to do wel enough in despite of the diuell and the Pope his darling yet your posterity will assuredly rue it and haue iust cause to curse their dastardly spirits and worthlesse progenitours I say no more concerning this point only I pray with our forefathers in the first english Letany set out in the dayes of King Henry the 8. from all sedition and priuie conspiracie from the tyrannie of the Bishop of Rome and all his detestable enormities from all false doctrine and heresie from hardnes of heart and contempt of thy word and commandement Good Lord deliuer vs. Where note by the way that the Popes abominable tyrannie is hedged in as it were on the one side with sedition and priuie conspiracy and on the other side with false doctrine and heresie I haue another prayer and for asmuch as it is in Latine I must entreat all such if any such here be present who loue Bonanentures psalter and the Romish seruice to ioyne with vs in this orison Papa noster qui es Romae maledicetur nomen tuum intereat regnum tuum impediatur volunt as tua sicut in Coelo sie et in terra Putum nostrum in Coena dominicada nobis hodie remitte nummos nostr●s quos tibi dedimus ob indulgentias sicut nos remittimus tibi indulgentias 〈◊〉 nos inducas in haeresin sed libera nos a miseria quoniam tuum est infernum pix sulphur in secula seculorum The word of God is a two edged sword sharp in a literal and sharp in an allegoricall exposition Hitherto you haue heard the history now there remaineth a mistery nihil enim hic ludicrum aut lubricum saith Augustine and therefore diuines vnderstand here by the sounding of the trumpet the preaching of the Gospell whose found went out thorow all the earth vnto the endes of the world at the seuenfold sounding of this trumpet the walles of sericho fal that is all the pompes and powers of this world are conquered brought to nought this trumpet is mightie thorough God to cast downe holdes and Imaginations and euery high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God 2. Cor. 10. 4. Other say that the Saints are these trumpets and harpes and Cymbals and that their members make this musicke to the Lord our eyes praise the Lord while they be lifted vp vnto their maker in heauen and waite vpon his mercy our tongues praise the Lord in singing Psalmes and hymnes and spirituall songs vnto the Lord our eares praise the Lord while they heare the word of God with attention our hands praise the Lord while they be stretched out vnto the poore and while they worke the thing that is good our feete praise the Lord when they bee not swift to shed blood but stand in the gates of Gods house ready to run the wayes of his commandements In Tympaeno sicca percussa pellis resonat in choro autem voces sociatae concordant said Gregorie the great wherefore such as mortifie the lusts of the flesh praise God in tympano and they who keepe the vnity of the spirit in the bond of peace praise God in choro the Brownist in separating himselfe from the Church though he seeme to praise God in tympano yet hee doth not praise God in choro and the carnall gospeller albeit he ioyne with the Church in chere yet he prayseth not God in tympano they praise God in well-tuned Cymbals who tune their soules before they preach or pray whosoeuer desires to bee a sweete singer in Israel must bee learned in the schoole before hee be lowd in the temple the heart likewise must be prepared for praying as the harpe for playing if our instruments of praise be not in tune then our whole deuotion is like the sounding brasse or as the tinckling Cymbal in Gods quier there is first tune well and then sound well if once we can say with Dauid O God mine heart is ready mine heart is ready then our lute and harpe will awake right early let thy soule praise the Lord and then all that is either without or about thee will instantly doe the same Let euery thing that hath breath praise the Lord that is omne spirans omnis spiritualis omnis spiritus let euery creature praise the Lord for his estate of confection euery Christian praise the Lord for his estate of refection euery blessed spirit loosed out of the worldes misery praise the Lord for his estate of perfection let euery creature man aboue all the Creatures and the foule of man aboue all that is in man praise the Lord. Omnis spiritus i. totus spiritus all the heart all the soule all the mind as the psalmist elsewhere I will thanke thee O Lord my God with all mine heart euen with my whole heart or omnis spiritus the spirit of euery man in euery place for this saying is propheticall insinuating that God in time to come shall not only be worshipped of the Iewes at Ierusalem with outward ceremonies in the sound of the trumpet and vpon the lute and harpe but in all places of all persons in spirit and truth as Christ expounds Dauid in the 4. of Saint Iohns Gospell at the 23. verse whereas vnbeleeuing Iewes are the sonnes of Abraham according to the flesh only beleeuing Gentiles are the seed of Abraham according to the spirit and heires by promise more Israel saith Augustine then Israel it selfe The sonnes of Abraham as Christ tels vs in the Gospell 〈◊〉 they who doe the workes of Abraham and Abrahams chiefe worke was faith Abraham beleeued saith the text and it was imputed to him for righteousnes Ergo the true beleeuer is a right Isralite blessed with saithfull Abraham Galat. 3. 9. some stretch this further applying it not onely to the spirits of men in the Church militant but also to the blessed Angels and Saints in the triumphant for this Psalme consists of a threefold apostrophe 1.
