Side 250 - Thus this brook has conveyed his ashes into Avon, Avon into Severn, Severn into the narrow seas, they into the main ocean; and thus the ashes of Wickliffe are the emblem of his doctrine, which now is dispersed all the world over."* — Church History.
Side 63 - The visible Church of Christ is a congregation of faithful men, in the which the pure Word of God is preached, and the Sacraments be duly ministered according to Christ's ordinance, in all those things that of necessity are requisite to the same.

Side 589 - it is my unhappy adventure, which am like to lose all that I have travailed for all the days of my life, for doing of my master true and diligent service.
Side 297 - What these elements are in themselves it skilleth not ; it is enough, that to me which take them they are the body and blood of Christ ; his promise in witness hereof sufficeth ; his word he knoweth which way to accomplish ; why should any cogitation possess the mind of a faithful communicant but this, O my God, thou art true ; O my soul, thou art happy...
Side 297 - As for his dark and hidden works, they prefer as becometh them in such cases simplicity of faith before that knowledge, which •curiously sifting what it should adore, and disputing too boldly of that which the wit of man cannot search, chilleth for the most part all warmth of zeal, and bringeth soundness of belief many times into great hazard.
