The preaching bishop reproving unpreaching prelates Being a brief, but faithful collection of observable 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. Edw. the sixth; before the convocation of the clergy, and before the citizens of London, at Pauls. 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.

Remember this, I beseech your Grace; and when these Flatterers and Flebergibs, another day shall come and claw you by the back, and say, Sir, trouble not your self: What, shall you study? Why should you do this or that?
Your Grace may answer them thus, and say, What Sirra! I perceive you are a weary of Us, and our Posterity: Doth not God say in such a place, that a King shall write out a Book of Gods Law, and read it? Learn to fear God. And why? That he, and his might reign long. I perceive now, thou art a Traitor.

Tell him this Tale once, and I warrant you, he will come no more to you, neither he, nor any, after such a sort.
And thus shall your Grace drive such Flatterers and Claw-backs away.—
