with_o reverence_n which_o can_v be_v no_o idolatry_n for_o these_o follow_a reason_n first_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n adorare_fw-la viz._n to_o adore_v and_o another_o venerari_fw-la viz._n to_o worship_n for_o adoration_n be_v forbid_v to_o any_o creature_n whether_o angelical_a or_o earthly_a but_o worship_n may_v be_v give_v to_o either_o of_o they_o as_o to_z man_n of_o a_o high_a rank_n common_o style_v worshipful_a and_o so_o abraham_n who_o in_o his_o time_n root_v out_o vain_a idolatry_n humble_v himself_o and_o also_o prostrate_v himself_o before_o those_o three_o guest_n which_o then_o he_o entertain_v for_o men._n as_o also_o josuah_n the_o holy_a captain_n of_o the_o people_n do_v prostrate_v himself_o to_o another_o angel_n which_o with_o a_o sword_n in_o his_o hand_n

it_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o to_o worship_v the_o law_n in_o this_o manner_n as_o we_o do_v can_v be_v no_o idolatry_n second_o the_o jew_n be_v very_o scrupulous_a in_o such_o thing_n and_o and_o fear_n in_o the_o least_o to_o appear_v to_o give_v any_o honour_n or_o reverence_n to_o image_n and_o so_o it_o be_v to_o be_v see_v in_o the_o talmud_n and_o in_o r._n moses_n of_o egypt_n in_o his_o treatise_n of_o idolatry_n that_o if_o by_o chance_n any_o israelite_n shall_v pass_v by_o a_o church_n that_o have_v image_n on_o the_o out_o side_n and_o at_o that_o time_n a_o thorn_n shall_v

this_o strictness_n if_o that_o be_v any_o appearance_n of_o idolatry_n to_o bow_v to_o the_o law_n the_o jew_n will_v utter_o abhor_v it_o and_o since_o they_o do_v it_o it_o be_v a_o evident_a
