Matthew26:48
Verse 48. Whomsoever I shall kisse] Ah lewd losell! Betraiest thou the Son of man with a kisse? Givest thou thy Lord such rank [non-Latin text not transcribed]. Philo [illegible: 1 word] pacis tradidit sacrisicium pacis. poison in such a golden cup? Consignest thou thy treachery with so sweet a symboll of peace and love? But this is still usuall with those of his Tribe. Caveatur osculum Iscarioticum. Jesuites at this day kisse and kill familiarly: [illegible: 1 word] occidunt, as one saith of [illegible: 1 word]. false Physitians. When those Rhemish Incendiaries, Giffard, Hodgeson, and others, had set Savage awork to kill Queen Elizabeth, Camd. Elizab. they first set forth a book to perswade the English Catholikes to attempt nothing against her. So when they had sent. Squire out of Spain to poison the Queen, they taught him to anoint Ibid. an. 1598. the pummel of her saddle with poison covertly, and then to pray with a loud voice, God save the Queen. Lopez, another of their agents, affirmed at Tiburn, That he had loved the Queen as Ibid sol. 431. he had loved Jesus Christ: Which, from a Jew, was heard not without laughter. So Parsons, when he had hatched that namelesse villany the powder-plot, set forth his book of resolution: as if he had been wholly made up of devotion, Esocietate Iesu fuit qui Iesum tradidit.
