Wherein, many things, relating to the honour and happiness of the king (our most gracious sovereign) the honourable lords, the reverend judges, the citizens of London, and commons of all sorts, but especially, the bishops and clergy are most plainly, piously and pithily represented.The preaching bishop reproving unpreaching prelates Being a brief, but faithful collection of observeable passages, in several sermons preached by the reverend father in God, Mr Hugh Latimer, Bish. of Worcester, (one of our first reformers, and a glorious martyr of Jesus Christ) before K.

And I doubt not, but there were Blanchers in the old time, to whisper in the ear of good King Hezekiah, 1for the maintenance of Idolatry done to the Brazen Serpent, as well as there has been now of late, and be now, that can blanch the abuse of Images as other like things: But good King Hezekiah would not be so blinded, he was like to Apollo, fervent in Spirit, he would give no ear to these Blanchers, he was not moved ⟨p. 43⟩with these worldly respects, with these prudent Considerations, with these Policies, he feared not Insurrections of the people.
