And are nothing else / but spots filthiness / slander / & a burden to the church where as they should be the highest and most beautiful garnishing / lights & pillars. So not we see all these things verified? Therefore the saying of Peter (Of you they make a mocking stock feasting to gather in their deceivable ways) must be understood / that they feast with your riches / 1or as Judas showeth / 2with your kindness & charity / for they abuse both you & your goods to their own pomp & wantonness / with out any fear. And as I think it is the fault of the printer which did put it so / for ignorance / because the words & letters in the greek are so like.
And are nothinge els / but spottes filthines / sclaunder / & a burdē to the chirch where as they shuld be the highest and most beutefull garnisshīge / lightes & pillars. So not we se all these thinges verefied? Therfore the faing of Peter (Of you they make a mockinge stocke feastinge to gedder in their deceaveble wayes) must be vnderstond / that they feast with youre riches / 1or as Iudas sheweth / 2with youre kindnes & charite / for they abose both you & youre goodes to their awne pōpe & wātānes / with out any feare. And as I thīke it is the faute of the prenter which did put it so / for ignorāce / because ye wordes & letters in the greke are so like.
