all_o that_o thou_o read_v first_o in_o the_o question_n of_o adore_v god_n the_o papist_n think_v they_o do_v not_o commit_v fornication_n because_o they_o have_v a_o fine_a shift_n to_o say_v they_o do_v not_o adore_v the_o image_n as_o to_o account_v it_o their_o god_n to_o put_v their_o trust_n in_o it_o but_o only_o reverence_v it_o as_o a_o representation_n of_o god_n by_o bow_v before_o it_o kiss_v it_o pray_v before_o it_o etc._n etc._n they_o adore_v he_o which_o the_o image_n represent_v and_o they_o think_v themselves_o very_o well_o discharge_v from_o idolatry_n see_v their_o image_n be_v not_o dedicate_v unto_o devil_n and_o false_a god_n but_o unto_o the_o true_a god_n christ_n and_o his_o saint_n
