Such poor Jeremiahs hath God given unto the world who have overthrown and pulled up the vanities and follies which were grown to a great height in the Church of God. They have planted faith and manners. They have opened and preached the trueth. The Lord hath prospered their labours, as we see this day. He hath rooted out those strange plants, and thrown down the weak foundations with the breath of his mouth. This is the plucking up, the rooting out, the destroying, and throwing down: this is the building & planting whereof the Prophet speaketh: as we have heard it proved by the Prophet him self, by the interpretation of Hierome a learned Father, who maketh good this saying with two several places written in the new Testament, ⟨p. 79⟩and by the confession of their own Doctour Johan. de Paras••s, and might be further proved by sundry others.

Yet all this notwithstanding it must be taken in the sense wherein Pius useth it, or else some of his predecessors Popes of Rome might likewise be worthily blamed for their doings.
