John Trapp on 1 Corinthians 14:14

Verſe 14. Is unfruitfull] In regard of others edification. It were a great grace, ſaid Lambert the Martyr,Act. and Mon. fol. 1015. if we might have the Word of God diligently and often ſpoken and ſung unto us in ſuch wiſe, that the people might underſtand it: then ſhould it come to paſſe that craftſmen ſhould ſing ſpirituall Pſalms ſitting at their work, and the husbandman at his plow, as wiſheth S. Hierome, Pavier Town-clark of London in Henry the eighths time, was a man that in no caſe could abide to hear that the Goſpel ſhould be in Engliſh: Inſomuch that he once ſware a great oath, that if he thought that the Kings highneſſe would ſet forth the Scripture in Engliſh, and let it be read of the people by his authority, Ibid 962. rather then he would ſo long live, he would cut his own throat. But he broke promiſe; for ſhortly after he hanged himſelf.
