MARY and her adherents.

The same God, who did execute this greuous punishment, euen by the
handes of those, whom he suffred twise to be ouercomen in batel,
doth this day retein his power and iustice. Cursed Iesabel of
England, with the pestilent and detestable generation of papistes,
make no litle bragge and boast, that they haue triumphed not only
against Wyet, but also against all such as haue entreprised any
thing against them or their procedinges. But let her and them
consider, that yet they haue not preuailed against god, his throne
is more high, then that the length of their hornes be able to
reache. And let them further consider, that in the beginning of
their bloodie reigne, the haruest of their iniquitie was not comen
to full maturitie and ripenes. No, it was so grene, so secret I
meane, so couered, and so hid with hypocrisie, that some men (euen
the seruantes of God) thoght it not impossible, but that wolues
might be changed in to lambes, and also that the vipere might
remoue her natural venom. But God, who doth reuele in his time
apointed the secretes of hartes, and that will haue his
iudgementes iustified euen by the verie wicked, hath now geuen
open testimonie of her and their beastlie crueltie. For man and
woman, learned and vnlearned, nobles and men of baser sorte, aged
fathers and tendre damiselles, and finailie the bones of the dead,
as well women as men haue tasted of their tyrannie, so that now
not onlie the blood of father Latimer, of the milde man of God
the bishop of Cantorburie, of learned and discrete Ridley, of
innocent ladie Iane dudley, and many godly and worthie preachers,
that can not be forgotten, such as fier hath consumed, and the
sworde of tyrannie moste vniustlie hath shed, doth call for
vengeance in the eares of the Lord God of hostes: but also the
