Text: "Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women..." Daniel 11:37 "Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; Forbidding to marry..." 1 Timothy 4:1-3
Quote:
We haue aboue spoken of Baptista Mantuan Carmelite, & we bring him againe here, because he liued till the yeare 1516 in such reputation, that many made him equall to the best auntient Poets that liued vnder Augustus: [...]
I pudor in villas, si non patiuntur easdem
Et villæ vomicas; Vrbs est iam tota lupanar.
Packe modestie to townes, vnlesse (no newes)
Townes haue some sores, the citie's now all stewes.
Mornay, Philippe de; Lennard, Samson, tr., The mysterie of iniqvitie: that is to say, the historie of the Papacie; declaring by what degrees it is now mounted to this height, and what oppositions the better sort from time to time haue made against it; where is also defended the right of emperours, kings, and Christian princes, against the assertions of the Cardinals, Bellarmine and Barorius, London: Printed by Adam Islip, 1612, p. 644.
