It would be over long to declare unto you the foolish or rather blasphemous applying of the Scriptures, to approve their gestures at mass, & the sovereignty and chieftie that they challenge. One of their Bishops in the late counsel as Trent, said of Paulus 3. then Pope, Papa 1lux venit in mundum, the Pope which is the light is come into the world. Which are the words of the Evangelist, declaring the Godhead of Christ.

And how truly this fault is to be laid […] to them, which either abridge the sense of the Scripture, or reach it further than it yieldeth, or utterly refuse to stand to the authority thereof, and in no case can like that the people of God should read the Scriptures: and have adjudged them heretics, and consumed their bodies in the fire, which have defended in speech, and sought to maintain the doctrine of truth set down in the holy scriptures.
