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.

Quinto, In Canones omnes antiquos, qui hasce pensiones vetant, statuuntque ut non nisi justa & gravi de causa, praesertim bene de Ecclesia meritis, & emeritis assignentur, idque ut habet communis mos, ea proportione, ut tertiam fructuum beneficii partem non superent.
Sexto, In Ecclesiam Universalem, cui ingens datur Scandalum. ⟨image 10⟩Rident & subsannant Haeretici, sicubi vident hasce avaritiae in Praelatis Ecclesiae nundinationes. Gemunt fideles. Clerici imitantur, ut Pastorum & Praelatorum exempla sectentur, ac pensionibus similibus inhient.
Septimo, In Episcopos & Patres omnes priscos & sanctos, quorum Sanctions, vita & exempla violantur. Haec lucra, has pensiones, non sectatus est, imo in nullo suorum admisit S. August. qui teste Possid. in Episcopatu non opes, sed animas quaesivit; ideoque opes suas in pauperes erogavit: non S. Gregor. cujus liberalitatem & Eleemosinas depraedicat Ecclesia Romana: non S. Ambrosius, non Chrysostomus, non Basilius, non Nazianzenus, non Athanasius. Patres in ea invehuntur,1 quasi in Crimina, imo, Sacrilegia, eisque inhiantes, Sacrilegii accusant: ⟨image 10⟩Tum quia patrimonium Christi diripiunt; tum quia indignos & inidoneos see faciunt suo gradu, dignitate & officio: Officium enim eorum est verbo, & magis vita docere.
