The Pope which so fast looses and 1purgeth in Purgatory, can not with all the lousinges and purgations that he hath, either louse or purge our ape tites and lust and rebellion that is in us against the law of God. And yet the purging of them is the right Purgatory. If he can not purge them that are alive, where with purgeth he them, that are dead? The Apostles knew no no other ways to purge, but through preaching Gods word which word only is that that purgeth the hart, as thou mayst see John. xv. Ye are pure, saith Christ, through the word. Now the pope preacheth not to them whom they feign to lye in Purgatory, no more then he doth to us that are a live. How then purgeth he them? The pope 2is kin to Robin good fellow which sweepeth the house, washeth the dishes and purgeth all by night. But when day cometh there is nothing found clean.
