without the least liberty of Paraphrase and word for word excepting only the addition of the necessary expletives to express an Interrogation in English But what do I trouble my self to find out some colour of a Fault when you set me to seek one The place concerns no manner of Controvssie between us And I am apt to think that you borrowed it out of a Book that was false printed and then had not judgment enough to correct it At last we have it seems corrupted Exod. 20.4 by putting the words Graven Image in the Second Commandment for is not that it you would have And pray why should we not do so since not only the Hebrew (c) 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 but even your own Vulgar has the same which you here confess to be Non facies tibi sculptile For what is a Graven Thing here but a Graven Image Oh but this word Sculptile is by the Seventy Interpreters translated Idol Thou hast a lucky Brain Belike then the Seventy had the Vurgar Latin before them and followed it in this place To what purpose is it to spend time upon such stuff as this Look Sir this is the short of the Business the Septuagints Translation is Good and the Vulgar Translation is Good and that because it will hold good to the Worlds end that Graven Images or any likenesses whatever that are worshiped are Idols not excepting the Picture of our Saviour if we had it which I do not say in hatred of the Picture of our Saviour unless I must needs hate every thing which I do not worship But I know no necessity of that for I am far enough from worshipping your own self and yet I cannot find in my heart to hate you But I wish you well and shall therefore give you a little good advice Do not for the future as I hinted to you before meddle with Kings or Queens Cardinals Archbihops or Noblemen for they are Persons too high for you nor with the Septuagint or the comparing of Originals and Translations as I add now for these are things too high for you too And for the same Reason meddle no more between Churches trouble your Head no more about Questions relating to Holy Orders Mission Succession and the Power of Reformation Give not your self to Controversies and above all things write no more Queries And if this distemper be once cured I 'll not despair but that your Ingenuity may direct you to an Imployment more suitable to your capacity so that you may be able to give a tolerable Account of the Time.
