Hilary bids vs beware of Antichrist, in such magnificent wals and Pallaces. Saint Hierome suspects not a few of them bee built rather for pride, then piety. It is a wonder to read how tart Saint Bernard is against them in his Apology to William, Abbot of S. Theodoricke: not that these good men (with divers others) misliked decency, cost, or state, proportionall to situations, assemblies, and founders, and the abilities of such houses for Gods worship; but desired to restraine excesse, curbe ostentation, stop superstition, which at length began to be intolerable in Images and Reliques: but especially to beat men off from the conceit of merit, and rectify their good mindes, where circumstances so required in divers cases, to more charitable imployments. The elegancy of S. Bernards Caveat deserues to be recited: |
