Excerpt from Select Sermons and Letters of Dr. Hugh Latimer, Bishop of Worcester and Martyr, 1555
That princely prophet David describing the perverse nature and wicked properties of the ungodly and reprobates, amongst other crimes whereof he doth accuse them, he layeth also to their charge, that they have not called upon God. By the which words, he doth manifestly teach, that they which do not give themselves to true and faithful prayer, and invocating of the name of God, are in the number of those which do say in their hearts there is no God. For as the godly, by their earnest and continual praying and praising of the name of God, do declare the reverend fear they bear towards his divine majesty, and their unfeigned love, the which is grafted in their hearts by the gracious and divine Spirit, towards their heavenly and most loving Father, by the which they are encouraged willingly and cheerfully to walk in the way of godliness, and to frame their lives to the will and pleasure of him whom they fear and love: So, on the contrary side, the ungodly in that they do not call upon their God, neither praise him, most evidently declare that they stand not in awe of him, nor love him, but rather despise him as one that is neither able to hurt or pleasure them.

Excerpt from Select Sermons and Letters of Dr. Hugh Latimer, Bishop of Worcester and Martyr, 1555
Those words which have become unintelligible or offensive, are exchanged for others, or are explained by notes when it is desirable that they should be retained. These variations, if they may be so called, were as necessary to render this work generally useful, as the adoption of modern orthography. The utmost care has been taken that the meaning of the author should be strictly preserved, and the various pieces have been collated with the best and earliest editions, or with manuscript copies. This has been done, that the meaning of the author might be given as nearly as possible, not from the first editions being the most correct, as they often abound with errors, for which the hurried or careless manner in which they were for the most part passed through the press, will readily account. The present reprints, it is believed, will be found to present the most correct text of these writers that has hitherto appeared. More than half of the pieces included m this collection, have not been reprinted since the sixteenth century, and a considerable portion is now printed for the first time."
