It needs not _perſpicuouſneſſe_, for God knowes they are plain enough: nor doe all of them uſe _Sem-briefe-Accents_ for ſome of them have _crotchets_ enough. It may bee they intend not to riſe like _glorious Tapers_ and _Torches_, but like _Thinne-wretched-ſicke-watching-Candles_, which _languiſh_ and are in a Divine _Conſumption_ from the firſt minute, yea in their _ſnuffe_, and _ſtink_ when others are in their more profitable _glory_. I have thought ſometimes, that out of _conſcience_, they allow _long meaſure_ to _courſe ware_. And ſometimes, that _uſurping_ in that place a _liberty_ to _ſpeak freely_ of _Kings_, they would _raigne_ as long as they could. But now I thinke they doe it out of a _zealous_ imagination, that, _It is their duty to preach on till their Auditory wake_. [Decoration] 3. _Why did the Divel reſerve Jeſuites till theſe latter dayes._ Did he know that our _Age_ would deny the _Devils poſſeſſing_, and therfore provided by theſe to _poſſeſſe_ men and kingdomes? Or to end the _diſputation_ of _Schoolemen_, why the _Divell_ could not make _lice_ in _Egypt_; and whether thoſe things hee _preſented_ there, might be _true_, hath he ſent us a _true_ and _reall plague_, worſe than thoſe _ten_? Or in _oſtentation_ of the _greatneſſe_ of his _Kingdome_, which even _diviſion_ cannot _ſhake_, doth he ſend us theſe which _diſagree_ with all the reſt? Or knowing that our _times_ ſhould diſcover the _Indies_, and aboliſh their _Idolatry_, doth he ſend theſe to give them _another_ for it? Or peradventure they have beene in the _Roman Church_ theſe _thouſand yeeres_, though we have called them by _other names_. [Decoration] 4. _Why is there more variety of Green then of other Colours?_ It is becauſe it is the figure of _Youth_ wherin _nature_ wuld provide as many _green_, as _youth_ hath _affections_; and ſo preſent a _Sea-green_ for _profuſe waſters_ in _voyages_; a _Graſſe-green_ for ſudden _new men enobled_ from _Graſiers_; and a _Gooſe-greene_ for ſuch _Polititians_ as pretend to preſerve the _Capitol_. Or elſe _Prophetically_ foreſeeing an _age_, wherein they ſhall all _hunt_. And for ſuch as _miſdemeane_ themſelves a _Willow-greene_; For _Magiſtrates_ muſt aſwell have _Faſces_ born before them to _chaſtize_ the _ſmall_ offences, as _Secures_ to _cut off_ the _great_. [Decoration] 5. _Why doe young Lay-men ſo much ſtudy Divinity._
