no_o less_o than_o formal_a idolatry_n and_o therefore_o on_o all_o hand_n all_o religious_a worship_n of_o statue_n and_o image_n even_o of_o the_o cross_n and_o of_o christ_n himself_o will_v be_v altogether_o banish_v out_o of_o christendom_n much_o more_o those_o of_o our_o lady_n and_o of_o other_o saint_n be_v that_o no_o religious_a worship_n at_o all_o be_v due_a unto_o those_o image_n or_o to_o those_o saint_n who_o they_o represent_v remember_v how_o saint_n john_n the_o evangelist_n when_o he_o will_v have_v worship_v the_o angel_n be_v by_o the_o angel_n himself_o forbid_v with_o this_o caveat_n see_v thou_o do_v it_o not_o for_o i_o be_o thy_o fellow-seruant_n 22.9_o revel_v 22.9_o and_o sure_o saint_n john_n never_o mean_v to_o adore_v that_o angel_n as_o god_n with_o the_o worship_n call_v latria_fw-la proper_a to_o god_n only_o for_o he_o well_o know_v that_o this_o be_v a_o angel_n but_o because_o he_o bow_v himself_o to_o he_o with_o a_o religious_a act_n the_o angel_n hinder_v he_o know_v that_o such_o a_o act_n be_v unlawful_a how_o much_o more_o unlawful_a be_v it_o to_o be_v do_v to_o a_o image_n but_o if_o you_o will_v clear_v the_o matter_n whether_o this_o worship_n be_v use_v to_o be_v give_v to_o the_o image_n itself_o as_o a_o image_n or_o to_o the_o prototype_n in_o the_o image_n look_v into_o your_o church_n &_o house_n whether_o the_o same_o adoration_n be_v yield_v to_o all_o crucifix_n &_o to_o all_o the_o image_n of_o the_o virgin_n mary_n equal_o of_o all_o which_o the_o prototype_n or_o principal_n be_v the_o same_o or_o whether_o there_o be_v not_o rather_o a_o difference_n in_o the_o adore_v they_o sure_o you_o shall_v find_v very_o great_a difference_n between_o one_o image_n and_o another_o both_o be_v of_o the_o same_o principal_n of_o our_o lady_n be_v image_n you_o shall_v have_v in_o the_o same_o city_n in_o diverse_a church_n and_o house_n some_o that_o be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o look_v after_o and_o yet_o one_o of_o they_o in_o some_o other_o church_n shall_v be_v frequent_v with_o infinite_a concourse_n of_o people_n that_o of_o loretto_n shall_v have_v far_o better_a do_n then_o that_o of_o mont-ferrate_a and_o so_o likewise_o of_o other_o therefore_o the_o usual_a worship_n be_v proper_a unto_o the_o image_n and_o not_o to_o the_o prototype_n or_o original_n which_o it_o represent_v observe_v also_o the_o disorder_n which_o be_v to_o be_v find_v not_o only_o in_o the_o common_a people_n and_o simple_a woman_n but_o also_o in_o those_o that_o be_v repute_v discreet_a and_o grave_a when_o they_o come_v into_o a_o church_n if_o there_o be_v there_o any_o famous_a statue_n or_o image_n of_o our_o lady_n load_v with_o vow_n glister_v with_o taper_n rich_o clad_v in_o gold_n and_o silver_n shut_v up_o in_o shrine_n and_o such_o like_a this_o must_v be_v the_o first_o that_o be_v visit_v after_o they_o have_v adore_v the_o image_n of_o the_o virgin_n mary_n then_o for_o fashion_n sake_n they_o go_v to_o the_o altar_n of_o the_o most_o bless_a sacrament_n as_o they_o call_v it_o where_o they_o suppose_v that_o christ_n himself_o be_v real_o and_o corporal_o present_a or_o if_o there_o be_v no_o such_o altar_n there_o than_o they_o first_o worship_v our_o lady_n dight_v in_o that_o manner_n and_o go_v afterward_o to_o the_o crucifix_n or_o rather_o for_o the_o most_o part_n do_v not_o at_o all_o visit_v it_o how_o many_o huge_a taper_n and_o whole_a torch_n shall_v you_o see_v burn_v before_o the_o image_n of_o st._n francis_n of_o st._n george_n of_o st._n charles_n or_o some_o other_o saint_n but_o before_o the_o crucifix_n either_o none_o at_o all_o or_o a_o petty_a farthing-candle_n be_v this_o to_o reflect_v from_o the_o image_n to_o the_o prototype_n be_v not_o this_o to_o commit_v idolatry_n and_o to_o prefer_v the_o servant_n before_o the_o master_n the_o creature_n before_o the_o creator_n be_v not_o this_o to_o put_v more_o affiance_n in_o a_o saint_n then_o in_o christ_n and_o to_o expect_v more_o help_n from_o a_o saint_n then_o from_o christ_n himself_o there_o be_v no_o one_o thing_n whereby_o poor_a i_o be_o more_o defame_v and_o shame_v among_o the_o jew_n turk_n and_o pagan_n then_o by_o these_o idolatry_n fly_v therefore_o from_o they_o the_o relic_n of_o saint_n if_o they_o be_v true_a and_o prove_v so_o to_o be_v be_v to_o be_v lay_v up_o in_o honourable_a burial_n and_o keep_v in_o decent_a place_n and_o be_v to_o serve_v your_o turn_n my_o child_n as_o a_o memorial_n of_o the_o holy_a action_n of_o that_o saint_n for_o your_o imitation_n you_o be_v therefore_o to_o respect_v they_o with_o civil_a honour_n as_o the_o member_n of_o god_n principal_a servant_n but_o as_o for_o religious_a and_o

and_o least_o of_o all_o to_o their_o image_n those_o relic_n have_v in_o themselves_o no_o divine_a power_n at_o all_o nor_o any_o spiritual_a quality_n whereby_o they_o may_v do_v you_o any_o help_n and_o if_o god_n in_o love_n unto_o his_o saint_n that_o remain_v with_o he_o in_o glory_n vouchsafe_v to_o do_v you_o any_o favour_n it_o be_v he_o himself_o that_o do_v it_o and_o not_o the_o

so_o also_o may_v you_o entreat_v god_n to_o grant_v you_o some_o favour_n for_o the_o love_n which_o he_o bear_v unto_o his_o saint_n but_o you_o be_v not_o to_o beg_v those_o favour_n of_o the_o
