		Phillip Stubbes 16th Cent. 1583 \| Phillip Stubbes, "Beare-baiting and other Exercyses, Used Unlawfully in Aligna" and "Cockfighting, Hawking and Hunting upon the Sabbath Day in England" [offsite ebook] in The Anatomy of Abuses in England in Shakespere's Youth, A.D. 1583, [First Edition: London, 1583] edited by Grederick Furnivall (London, 1879; Digitized by Google, 2006) What Christen heart can take pleasure to see one poore beast to rent, teare, and kill another, and all for his foolish pleasure? And although they be bloody beasts to mankind, & seeke his destruction, yet we are not to abuse them, for his sake who made them, & whose creatures they are. For, notwithstanding that they be evill to us, & thirst after our blood, yet are thei good creatures in their own nature & kind, & made to set foorth the glorie & magnificence of the great God, & for our use; & therefore for his sake not bo be abused. I never read of any in the volume of the sacred Scripture that was a good man, and a Hunter. Transcriber's Notes
