and halowe them as the chalice / from all maner laye vses:
so that they maye serue nether father ner mother master lord
or prince / for polutynge them selues / but must wayte on
god only / to gather vpp his rentes / tithes / offeringes
and al other duties. And al the sacrifice that come they consume
in the altare of their belies and make Calil of
it / that is / a
sacrifice that noman maye haueparte of. They
beleue that there is a god: But as they can not loue his
lawes / so they haue no power to beleue in him / But they
put their trust and confidence in their awne workes &
by their awne workes they wilbe saued / as the rich of this
world / when they sue vn to greate men / hope with giftes and presentes to obtayne their causes. Nether other seruinge of God know they / saue soch as their eyes maye se and their
belies feale. And of very zele they wilbe gods vicars and
prescribe a maner vn to other and aftir what facion they
shall serue god / and compell them therto / for the
avoydinge of Idolatrie / as thou seist in the phareses.
