his_o work_n his_o pomp_n and_o vanity_n therefore_o by_o our_o own_o confession_n show_n &_o pomp_n be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n how_o then_o o_o christian_n do_v thou_o haunt_v play_n and_o

they_o to_o be_v both_o so_o that_o return_v unto_o one_o thou_o wente_v back_o unto_o both_o for_o thou_o say_v i_o renounce_v the_o devil_n his_o pomp_n show_n and_o work_n and_o what_o afterward_o i_o believe_v thou_o say_v in_o god_n the_o father_n almighty_a and_o in_o jesus_n christ_n his_o son_n therefore_o before_o we_o can_v believe_v in_o god_n the_o devil_n must_v be_v renounce_v for_o he_o believe_v not_o in_o god_n who_o renounce_v not_o the_o devil_n so_o then_o he_o forsake_v god_n who_o return_v to_o the_o devil_n but_o the_o devil_n be_v in_o his_o pomp_n &_o show_n than_o it_o follow_v that_o by_o return_v unto_o his_o pomp_n we_o forsake_v the_o faith_n of_o christ._n then_o hereby_o all_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o belief_n be_v unlose_v and_o all_o which_o follow_v in_o the_o creed_n be_v weaken_v and_o totter_v for_o the_o building_n can_v stand_v if_o the_o principal_n be_v down_o then_o tell_v i_o o_o christian_n how_o can_v thou_o think_v thyself_o to_o keep_v that_o which_o follow_v in_o the_o creed_n when_o thou_o have_v lose_v the_o beginning_n of_o the_o same_o the_o member_n without_o a_o head_n be_v nothing_o worth_a &_o to_o their_o

to_o small_a profit_n for_o without_o a_o head_n nothing_o can_v stand_v he_o therefore_o that_o think_v it_o a_o light_a offence_n to_o see_v play_n let_v he_o consider_v all_o what_o we_o have_v say_v and_o he_o shall_v see_v that_o in_o play_n there_o be_v destruction_n and_o no_o pleasure_n and_o what_o else_o be_v it_o but_o to_o fall_v into_o destruction_n to_o forgo_v the_o beginning_n of_o life_n for_o where_o the_o fundation_n of_o the_o belief_n be_v overthrow_v life_n itself_o be_v destroy_v then_o again_o we_o must_v needs_o return_v unto_o that_o which_o we_o have_v often_o say_v what_o such_o thing_n among_o the_o barbarous_a where_o be_v any_o stage_n among_o they_o or_o theater_n where_o be_v the_o sin_n of_o many_o sin_n that_o be_v the_o destruction_n of_o our_o hope_n christian_n and_o salvation_n which_o notwithstanding_o if_o they_o be_v pagan_n do_v use_v they_o shall_v err_v with_o less_o offence_n of_o god_n because_o albeit_o such_o do_v be_v a_o defile_n of_o the_o sight_n yet_o be_v it_o not_o a_o break_n of_o the_o sacrament_n but_o now_o what_o can_v we_o say_v for_o ourselves_o we_o hold_v the_o belief_n &_o we_o overthrow_v the_o belief_n we_o confess_v the_o duty_n of_o salvation_n and_o also_o deny_v the_o same_o and_o therefore_o where_o be_v our_o christianity_n who_o as_o it_o seem_v hereunto_o be_v baptize_v that_o afterward_o more_o heinous_o we_o may_v offend_v we_o prefer_v pastime_n before_o the_o church_n we_o despise_v the_o lord_n table_n and_o honour_n theater_n at_o a_o word_n we_o love_v all_o thing_n reverence_v all_o thing_n god_n alone_o seem_v vile_a to_o we_o in_o comparison_n of_o other_o thing_n final_o among_o the_o rest_n which_o prove_v the_o same_o this_o which_o i_o now_o say_v do_v show_v it_o to_o be_v true_a for_o if_o it_o fall_v out_o as_o often_o it_o do_v that_o at_o one_o &_o the_o same_o time_n a_o holy_a day_n be_v keep_v and_o common_a play_n proclaim_v i_o demand_v

the_o temple_n be_v despise_v to_o run_v unto_o theater_n the_o church_n be_v empty_v the_o yard_n be_v fill_v we_o leave_v the_o sacrament_n to_o feed_v our_o adulterous_a eye_n with_o the_o impure_a
