God's laws saith with Cato: Honora parentes. Omnis anima potestatibus supereminen tibus subdita sit, Roman. 13. Exod. 20. that is to say / Honour thy father: and every man be subject unto the superior pours. The Romans Reprehended and deposed like wise the tyrant / Nero for his cruelty: and killed the vicious Prince Tarquinius Sextus for vitiating of the chaste Matron Lucretia. the Bishops laws saith thus. Si Papa suae, & fraternae salutis negligens deprehenditur, inutilis, & remissus in suis operibus, & insuper • bono taciturnus, quod magis officit sibi, & omnibus, nihilo minus innumerabiles populos cateruatim secū ducat primo mancipio gehennae, cum ipso plagis multis inaeternū uapulaturus. Huius culpas isthic redarguere praesumit mortaliū nullus, quia cunctos judicaturus, ipse a nemine judicandus. That is to say / If the Pope care nether fore his own health / nether for his brothers / be found unprofitable and negligent in his works / farther a man apt to do no god (so I English: tacitur•us ā bono .i. qui sua natura oī honestate, ⟨p. XXIIII⟩probitateque facile tacet) that hurteth himself and other: leadeth with him / people innumerable / by legions unto the devil / to be punished with him / in pains / most dolorous for ever being Pope no mortal man should presume to reprehend his faults / for he judgeth all men / and is to be judged of Noman. What law was there ever written more pernicious / or contrary unto God's laws / then this. Syrillus against Julianum allegeth the writings of the philosopher Pythagoras: who proveth to be one only God / who made / and preserveth only / the things made: so doth Sophocles: Cicero 2. lib. of the Nature of Godes. 1. lib. Tuscul. quest. 1. lib. Delegibus Seneca Unto Lucilius Epist. lib. 15. Bring these Ethnics laws unto the word of God / with the law of Bishops that teacheth the invocation and aid of saints departed out of this world: and then thou shalt see / that the Ethnics laws / are approved by God's word: and the Bishops laws condemned. For God's laws saith / I am the lord thy God / and thou shalt have no more / before my face Exod. 20. Deut 5. and if we pray for any thing / God's word commandeth to ask in christs name. Jo. 14. Seeing the knowledge / and use of God's word / is so necessary / and only telleth us / what is god / and what is isle: what true / and what false:
