The third Chap.
IN the iij. chapter he saith that Bilneyes judges (which he yet nameth not for fear of slandering them) were indifferent. Nay, they that take rewards 1be not indifferent. For rewards and gifts blind the eyes of the seeing and pervert the words of the righteous. Deut. 17. Now all they that be shoren take great rewards to defend ⟨p. 309⟩2Pilgrimages, Purgatory, and praying unto Saints: even the third part I trow of all Christendom. For 3all they have, they have received in the name of purgatory, and of Saints, & on that foundation be all their bishoprics, Abbeys, colleges and Cathedral churches built. If they be indifferent Judges, they must be made servants, and do service, as their duty is. And when they have done a quarters service, then give them wages as right is, unto every man that laboureth in Christs harvest a sufficient living, and no more, and that in the name of his labour, and not of Saints, and so forth. And then they shall be more indifferent Judges, when there cometh no vantage to judge more on one side then an other.
