Consider now whence all this rebellion grew. There is no treason, without conference. There, even there began all our trouble. The master of all this mischief fitteth at Rome, as I told you before: y• coals were kindled here, but the bellows were there, & there sate he y• blew the fire. We saw the poppets, but y• juggler that drew the strings kept him self close. They which rebelled brake their oaths, forswore themselves robbed their country, spoiled towns, burnt y• holy Bible the word of God, they cared neither for God, nor man: neither for Prince, nor for law. They were promised furtherance ⟨p. 106⟩in their doings, by insurrections which should have been likewise made in other places of the Realm. In all this they took courage and countenance of Pope Pius. He furnished them with all devise of counsel, he blessed them in their purpose, he promised them forgiveness of their sins, for part of their wages.
