Luke11:52

Verse 52. Woe unto you Lawyers] I see well, said Father Latimer, Acts. and Mon. fol. 1590. that whosoever will be busy with Vaevobis, he shall shortly after come coram nobis, as Christ did. For ye have taken away the key of knowledge] By taking away the Scriptures, and all good meanes of knowledge: as do also the Jesuites at this day. At Dole, an University in Burgundy, they have not only debarred the people of the Protestant books, but especially also forbid them to talk of God, either in good sort or bad. In Italy they not only prohibit the books of the Reformed writers, but also hide their own Treatises, in which the Tenet of the Protestants is recited, only to be confuted: so that you shall seldome there meet with Bellarmines works, or any of the like nature to be sold.
