Fifthly, Haters of covetousness, For assuredly if these Kite-footed corruptions domineer in the Magistrate, all is marred; then must his high place, honour, friends, favourites, servants, dependants, officers, all occasions, circumstances, advantages, wit, policy, nay, religion, conscience and all, be made to serve and feed this unsatiable daughter of the horse-leach. Sacrilege, that monstrous incongruity of Laymen's taking Tithes, and not preaching to the people,1 Simony, bribery, turning of judgement away backward, temporising, betraying the truth and good causes, selling of offices, benefices, Justice, silence, sharking of under officers, &c. are the filthy vermin, that breed only in this Burrow. Excellent then was the counsel of *Bernard to Eugenius; So rule that the people may prosper and grow rich under thee, and not thou wealthy by them.
