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.

Rursum, officium eorum est, praedicare Regnum Coelorum,1 quod Christus & Apostoli praedicarunt, ut scilicet homines a carne & terra ad spiritum & coelum avocent; ut a superbia, gula, avaritia, homines ad humilitatem, temperantiam, opum contemptum traducant. Jam quomodo praedicabunt opes coelestes, qui toti terrestribus inhiant? Quomodo oppugnabunt avaritiam, qui non nisi pensionibus accumulandis student? Quomodo aeternitatem & bona aeterna inculcabunt, qui non nisi temporalia & caduca sectantur?

S. Hilarius Can. 4. in Matth. explicans illud Christi, Vos estis Sal terrae, ait, quod Apostoli & eorum Successores sint rerum coelestium praedicatores, & aeternitatis velut Satores, immortalitatem omnibus corporibus, quibus ⟨image 11⟩eorum sermo aspersus fuerit, conferentes. Merito igitur Sal terrae sunt nuncupati, per doctrinae virtutem salients, aeternitati corpora reservantes. At quomodo aeternitatis erunt Satores, qui toti temporalium sunt Messores? Quomodo erunt Sal terrae, qui quasi sal infatuatum in terram & terrena conversi sunt? qui ut subdit S. Hilarius, sensu accepti saporis amisso, vivificare corrupta non possunt, & projecti de Ecclesiae promptuariis, cum iis quos salierint, pedibus incedentium proteruntur.
