Cuique et nemini.
My hope is heauen, the crosse on earth my rest,
The foode that feedes me is my Saviours bloud,
My name is faith to all I doe protest,
What I beleeue is Catholique and good,
And as my Saviour strictly doth commaund,
My good I doe with close and hidden hand.
The foode that feedes me is my Saviours bloud,
My name is faith to all I doe protest,
What I beleeue is Catholique and good,
And as my Saviour strictly doth commaund,
My good I doe with close and hidden hand.
Nor Heresie, nor Schisme, I doe maintaine,
But as christ's coate so my beliefe is one,
I hate all fancies forg'd of humane braine,
I let contention and vaine strifes alone;
If ought I neede I craue it from aboue,
And liue with all in Charitie and Loue.
