rish / because they conceyued not loue vn to the trouth / to
besaued by / & therfore shall god send them stronge
delusion or gyle / to beleue lies: the texte must also
pertayne vn to a multitude gathered to
gether in Christes name of whych one parte &
nodoute the gretter / for lacke of loue vn to the trouth
that is in Christe / to liue therafter / shall faull in to
sectes & a false faith vnder the name of Christe &
shalbe induratt and stablished therin with false
miracles to perish for their vnkyndnesse. The pope first
hath no scripture that he dare abyde by in the light /
nether careth / but blasphemith that his word is truer then
the scripture. He hath miracles with out gods worde / as
all false prophetes had. He hath lyes in all his
legendes in all preachinges and in all bokes. They haue no
loue vn to the trueth. Which appereth by their greate
synnes that they haue sett vpp aboue all the abhominacion
of all the hethen that ever were / & by their longe
continuaunce therin: not of frailte: but of malice vn to the trueth
& of obstinatt lust & selfe will to synne. Whych
appereth in .ij. thynges: the one / that they haue gotten
them with wiles & falsehed from vnder all lawes of man
& even aboue kinge & emproure / that
no man shuld constrayne their bodies &
brynge them vn to better ordir / that they maye synne frely
with out feare of man. And on
the other syde / they haue brought gods worde
aslepe / that it shuld not vnquiet their consciences / in
so moch that if any man rebuke them with that / they
persecute him immediatly and pose him in their false
doctrine & make him an heretike and burne him and
quench it.
