The World must have stern and fierce Rulers.
The World’s highest Wisdom.
The Language and Doings of the World.
Luther’s Comparison of the World.
The World seeketh Immortality with their Pride.
What is to be considered in the executing of Offices.
The World is full of Dissemblers and Blasphemers: How many Sorts there be.
Of the Wealth and Treasure of the World.
Covetousness is a Sign of Death; we must not rely on Money and Wealth.
The Popes’ Covetousness.
Versus Amor, Mundi Caput est, et Bestia Terræ.
Princes do draw and tear Spiritual Livings unto them.
A fearful Example of Covetousness.
Wealth is the least Gift of God.
Giving to the Poor that truly stand in need of our Help.
The World will always have new Things.
