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.

St. Paul in his Epistle qualifieth a Bishop,1 and saith, he must be apt to teach? What shall a man do with Aptness,2 if he do not use it; It were as good to be without it.

A Bishop came to me the last day, and was angry with me for a Sermon that I made in this place. His Chaplain, he complained against me, because I had spoken against unpreaching Prelates. Nay, quoth the Bishop, he made so indifferent a Sermon the first day, that I thought he would mar all the second day; he will have every man a Quondam, as he is.
