  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. 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 soveraign) 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.

  Thus men serve the Devil , for God is not thus served , albeit ye say ye serve God ; no the Devil hath more service done unto him in one Holy-day then on many working dayes ; let all these abuses be counted as nothing , who is he that is not sorry to see in so many Holy-dayes rich and wealthy Persons to flow in delicates , and men that live by their travel , poor men to lack necessary meat and drink for their Wives and Children , and that they cannot labour upon the Holy-dayes , except they will be cited , and brought before our Officials .

  Felo de se, or, The bishops condemned out of their own mouthes confessing their politick devices, and unjust practices, to settle and maintain their lordly dignities, and private interests, to the impoverishing and ruine of the nations wherein such idle and unprofitable drones are suffered to domineer : in a familiar discourse between the said bishops and their tenants, begun in 1660, the year of their unhappy resurrection, and continued to this present year 1668 : published for information of the people, who groan to be delivered from that yoke of bondage, which neither they nor their fathers were able to bear / by a mourner for the poor nations ...

summary:
  But they are all mistaken in us , for whatever some do think of us , we are the most dirtiest fellows in the world , & are employed in and about the vilest work , ( as you know Scullions work is so : ) for God being offended with his golden Vessels , who while we lay among the Pots , grew very rusty , and almost overspread with canker and filthiness ; and he having occasion to make use of the worst and vilest of men , was pleased to call us out of our Dens , and Styes , and bid us go to Skullions-Scouring-work , and therefore gave us spirits and opportunities accordingly , to get Horns and Courts , Powers and Faculties , whereby to do the said work : in and about which work we have been exercising our selves to the utmost of our Power , and have scoured the flesh from the bones of some ; the nearest relations from each other : Estates from some , and Liberty from others : Some we have cursed as black as soot , and then have rub'd them so hard , untill we have separated their Souls from their Bodies , so that you see we are not erected in vain , we are of good use , and we fear we shall be rewarded accordingly . Thirdly , We are set up and used , to confirm the blessed Truths and Wayes of God , which his People espoused and professed , which once cost them but little or nothing : We mean , that by our wicked persecuting , and superstitious spirits and hands , God hath called forth many , both to bear clearer testimonies , and to seal them by their hardships , and sufferings , from and by us , whereby the holy Truths and Wayes of God appear to be real and excellent things indeed ; their suffering for , and sealing Truths and Practices , do greatly commend them to all men , and lay convictions upon them , that they are serious and weighty matters , and so thereby draw the eyes and hearts of persons towards them , causing such as accounted them but the meer fancies and conceits of a few precise persons , to believe them to be choice matters , and worthy of all acceptation , and perswading them that they ought to be embraced , and practised with all confidence and readiness , and at last to set to their seals , that they are most glorious Truths and Wayes , that they need not be ashamed of them , but own and profess them with all boldness ; and also our Lyes and Vanities , which we call Religion , and with which for a time , we corrupted the minds of men , to lose their place and interest in mens hearts .

  A nevv discovery of old pontificall practises for the maintenance of the prelates authority and hierarchy. Evinced by their tyranicall persecution of that reverend, learned, pious, and worthy minister in Jesus Christ, Mr. John Udall, in the raigne of Queene Elizabeth. To give satisfaction to all those that blindely endeavour to uphold episcopall government, that their lordly rule in the purest times of the said queene, is the very same with that they have exercised ever since, even to these times. Together with the prelates devises to make him submit, and to subscribe to submissions of their own contriving and invention. And also King James his letter out of Scotland to the queene, in the behalfe of Mr. Vdall and all other persecuted ministers in her realme.

  SIR Walter Rawleigh willed me to let you understand , that her Majestie is informed of you , that you hold that the Church of England is no Church , and the Sacraments of the same , no Sacraments , and that all her Ecclesiast●●●●●●ws are against the word of God , and so her government , and that all Ecclesiasticall matters ought to be governed by a Presbytery , and shee her selfe to be subject to the censures thereof . Baron Clarke and Serjeant Puckering , that because the Booke of Demonstration of Discipline , whereof he was supposed the Author , and for which he was then Indited , was against the Bishops that exercised the Government appointed them by the Queene , therefore by consequent it was against her Royall Person ; and because that he strove against the Prelates , who were put in Authority by the Queene , therefore he did strive against her , which was contrary to the Maxime of Law , That no penall or criminall Statute which concerneth a mans life , ought to ●e extended beyond the power of naturall words of the same ( such an awing power have the Bishops alwaies carried over the Laws , Judges and Lawyers , as to over-rule them all , and to make them sing ●lacebo ) and then the said Judges directed the Jury to finde him the Author of that Booke , without legall proofe , and to leave the Felony to them , which they said , was resolved by all the Judges of the Land , and the Jury for feare complying with them , found him guilty of Felony , being drawn thereunto by a promise , that it should be no further danger unto him but tend to his good ; for which afterwards , they were exceedingly grieved and troubled .
