Give not that holy thing unto dogs, neither cast your pearls be fore the swine, lest they tread them under their feet, and the other turn again and all to tear you.
Giue not that holy thyng vnto dogges, neither cast your pearls be fore the swyne, lest they treade thē vnder their feete, and the other turne agayne and all to teare you.
The dogs are those obstinate and indurate, which for the blind zeal of 1their leaven, wherewith they have soured both y• doctrine & also the works, maliciously resist the truth, and persecute the ministers thereof: and are those wolves among which Christ sendeth his sheep, warning them, not only to be single & pure in their doctrine, but also wise and circumspect & to beware of men. For they should bring them before judges and kings and slay them, thinking to do God service therein: that is as Paul to the Romans testifieth of the Jews, for blind zeal to their own false & feigned righteousness, persecute the righteousness of God.

For they should bryng them before iudges and kynges and slay them, thinkyng to do God seruice therein: that is as Paul to the Romains testifieth of the Iewes, for blynd zeale to their own false & fayned righteousnes, persecute the righteousnesse of God.
