IX. ON ZVINGLIVS.
When into Zuinglius Satan had infus'dHimself, and by those
Zuinglius confesseth himself to haue been instructed against the Masse by a certain Admonisher, to vse his owne words, whether black or white he remembred not. See this at large in Zuing. his owne works tom. 2. fol. 249. See the same derided as an illusion by the learned Protestants Iac. And. confut. Grinæi, p. 120. 254. 304. by Schluff. Theol. Calu. 6. 1. in proœm. fol. 3. Bened. Morgenst. de Eccl. p. 68. Heilbran. in Swenks. Caluin. presat. Giesek enius de cœna. p. 64. and others.
Before 'gainst Luther, drawn him to forsake
Christ, and al true Religion; and betake
Himself to schisme, his neuer setled braine
Suting
Zuinglius, (sayth Schiusselburg) taketh his name with his condition απο τοου κικγλιζειν, which signifieth often to shake and moue: because Zuinglius hath moued many vproares and troubles in the Church of God, by his heresy: or otherwise Zuinglius is deriued frō giddinesse, von dem Schwindel: for he was struck with the spirit of giddines & blindnes, after the manner of al Heretikes, daring to depraue the Testament of the Sonne of God by putting the word (significat) for (est) Theol. Calu. l. 2. act. 1.
Such swarmes of heresies, as one might see,
Th'first thing he doth is to
For wheras the Euangelists say, This is my body, Zuinglius translateth, This signifieth my body, both in his latin new Testament, which he dedicated to the French King, and likewise in the dutch. See this affirmed by Schluss. Theol. Calu. l. 22. act. 6. fol. 43. 44. See Zuing. himself also, tom. 2. fol. 210. and see next before, 4.
Of sacred writ: his second worke declines
To liberty of life, affirming at
Christs promises were hyperbolical.
The flood-gate thus set wide he keeps no measure
But frames al grounds of faith to his owne pleasure,
As, that original sinne though others please
To tearme it sinne, is only a disease.
Baptisme is so indifferent as it may
Be done, omitted, yea or tak'n away.
The path to heauen is so broad and plaine,
As euen Infidels thereby attaine
T'eternal blisse: when sinne we doe commit
God as the Authour moues and forceth it.
Al Kings and Princes when they are dispos'd;
To persecute the truth may be depos'd;
For which himself assumes the sword and
Gualterus granteth that Zuinglius is tearmed by some Protestants, The most vniust authour of the warre, & violent disturber of the publike peace, who moued by pride and crueltie, caused the Tigurins to take in hand a new and strange attempt against their fellowes, that he might force them by want and famine to follow his doctrine, who before would not. Hitherto he in his Apolog. pro Zuingl. before the first the 1. tom. of his works. fol. 30. See 31. and Osiand. epist. Cent. 16. p. 203.
Euen his owne Countrey-men to ciuil warres:
And there an armed rebel feeles the proof
Of treacherie, and dyes; end good enough.
