Theo. If we condemn the superstitious and importable abuses,1 which the Papists use in their fasts, we do not for all that condemn the true fasts, that are according to the word of GOD, and according to the right rule of the ancient Fathers and true servants of God: But contrariwise, we greatly desire, to have the right use of those fasts, to be brought into the Church. For, there is great difference between correcting the abuses, & the ⟨image 127⟩abolishing of good things which men have abused. And as for the common fasts, there are no preachers which more commend them, nor who more grievously reprove and condemn gluttony, drunkenness, and all dissoluteness, or looseness of life, as well for eating and drinking, as also for all other things, then the true Ministers of the Gospel, reprove and condemn them.
