For me thinks I see and hear the Monks crying out with very loud voices in the Pulpits, both confirming their followers in their ungodly religion, by the example of your gracious Majesty, and also saying, What? doth not even the Queen of England also, a most learned and a most prudent Princess, begin by little and little to come back to the religion of the holy church of Rome, the most holy and sacred vestments of the Clergy men being taken on again? we are to be in good hope that the day will come, wherein she will at length, though now they be thought to be dead, recall also all the other Rites and Sacraments of the holy Church of Rome. These and such like words, no doubt, most prudent Queen, the Monks and Jesuits will use in the Pulpits. For they take all occasions to confirm their superstitions. Therefore to recall these stinking garments, and other rubbish of the Popish Church into the Church of Christ at this time, what is it but to give the Papists an occasion, and the best that may be, to confirm and harden themselves and theirs in their superstitions, and also to help them in this business? But let us hear what the Prophet said to Jehoshaphat King of Judah, when he helped Ahab; Darest thou help the wicked, and love those who hate the Lord? For this thing the wrath of the Lord is upon thee. And what other thing will this be, then even ⟨p. 50⟩to call back the weak from the study of pure Religion, and to give them a privy warning to look back, and return into Egypt? It is an easy matter for us weak men, who of our own nature are prone to superstition, to slide back to impiety. Therefore occasions of sliding back to ungodliness, ought to be taken away, and at no hand to be given. And what else, I pray you, meant God in forbidding to plpw with an Ox, and an Ass, to sow the same field with diverse kinds of seeds, and to wear a garment woven of linen and woollen together? It is an odious & detestable thing with God, that the same field of the Lord should be tilled by ungodly & godly Bishops together; If in the same Church Popish Doctrine be taught with the Doctrine of the Gospel: Finally, if Sacraments, Ceremonies, and Rites, partly Apostolic, and partly Popish, be used, and the Church be clothed with them as with a garment of linsey-wolsey. For what agreement hath light with darkness?

For me thinkes I see and heare the Monks crying out with very loud voyces in the Pulpits, both confirming their followers in their ungodly religion, by the example of your gracious Majesty, and also saying, What? doth not even the Queene of England also, a most learned and a most prudent Princesse, beginne by little and little to come back to the religion of the holy church of Rome, the most holy and sacred vestments of the Clergie men being taken on againe? we are to be in good hope that the day will come, wherein she will at length, though now they be thought to be dead, recall also all the other Rites and Sacraments of the holy Church of Rome. These and such like words, no doubt, most prudent Queen, the Monkes and Iesuites will use in the Pulpits. For they take all occasions to confirme their superstitions. Therefore to recall these stinking garments, and other rubbish of the Popish Church into the Church of Christ at this time, what is it but to give the Papists an occasion, and the best that may be, to confirme and harden themselves and theirs in their superstitions, and also to helpe them in this businesse? But let us heare what the Prophet said to Iehosaphat King of Iuda, when he helped Ahab; Darest thou helpe the wicked, and love those who hate the Lord?
