e S. Paul saith,1 Stand steadfast therefore having your loins girt about with the girdle of truth And the Priest, in stead of this girdle which is an arming girdle serving for the spiritual battle, taketh a girdle made of a cord: by which also is signified the chastity that ought to be in them: which they have so slipperily tied up, as that it is far enough of them.

f Where S. Paul maketh faith the buckler,1 & the word of God the sword, the Priest taketh here a bend, for a bracelet and gauntlet. And besides, where the children and servants of God, which suffer here in the world for the name of the Lord, and do afterward greatly glad them selves in ⟨p. 89⟩their deliverance, and receive with great joy, the fruit of their tribulations: and after that are greatly comforted in the harvest time, bringing home with them their hands full of corn, and other fruits of their travels: The priests in like sort, who have taken great pains to sow for Jesus Christ, bring home with them also out of their harvest, some pretty child's string wreathed about their arms, which they call a Maniple, that is to say, an handful of corn, that their harvest might be according to their seed time. Is not this good stuff to be put in?
