XXXII. Looke beyond Luther.

Looke beyond Luther: what espy you there?
I finde the Fathers then possessed were
With the now censur'd doctrines of Free-will
Merit of workes, Fastes, Power to fulfill
Gods sacred Precepts, Vowes of Chastity,
S. Peter's and the Pope his Primacy
The Reall presence, Water mixt with wine
The Eucharist reseru'd and yet diuine
I meane still Reall, Altars, Sacrifice,
That Sacraments giue grace, the Church comprise
Both good and bad, with Satisfaction,
Confession, Chrisme or Confirmation
That we may pray to Saints, yea and assigne
Vnto themselues, their Images, and shrine
Religious worship, that the Crosse may bee
Honour'd; with Prayer for dead and Purgatory,
With Limbus Patrum, and that Faith alone
Produceth not Iustification.
But these are Papists Heads: what? then behinde
Your famous Luther can we nothing finde
Which you may challenge and securely vant
To be the true badge of a Protestant?
Yes; at his heeles, scortcht in lasciuious fyer,
Lies the cast habit of a periur'd Frier.
