In the popish mass time,1 there was no gain saying, all things seemed to be in peace, in a concord, in a quiet agreement. So long as we had in adoration, in admiration, the popish mass, we were then without gainsaying. What was that? The same that Christ speaketh of. Con fortis armatus custodierit atrium &c. When Satan the devil hath the guiding of the house, he ⟨image 40⟩keepeth all in peace that is in his possession: when Satan ruleth, and beareth dominion in open Religion, as he did with us when we preached pardon matters, purgatory matters, & pilgrimage matters, all was quiet. He is ware enough, he is wily, and circumspect for stirring up and sedition. When he keepeth his territory all is in peace.

If there were any man that preached in England in times past, in the popes times, (as peradventure there was .ii or .iii) straight ways he was taken & napped in the head with the title of an heretic. When he hath the religion in possession, he stirreth up no sedition, I warrant you.
