about_o i_o to_o lift_v up_o i_o as_o the_o high_a good_a but_o if_o there_o be_v any_o thing_n else_o that_o thy_o soul_n be_v set_v upon_o as_o thy_o high_a good_a that_o be_v thy_o god_n and_o it_o be_v worse_o than_o bow_v the_o knee_n thou_o bow_v thy_o soul_n to_o that_o thing_n now_o the_o mean_a any_o thing_n be_v that_o we_o make_v a_o god_n of_o to_o ourselves_o the_o more_o vile_a be_v the_o idolatry_n as_o when_o the_o egyptian_n worship_v divers_a sort_n of_o god_n they_o be_v account_v the_o most_o vile_a idolater_n whereas_o other_o heathen_n worship_v more_o excellent_a thing_n the_o sun_n moon_n and_o star_n the_o egyptian_n worship_a dog_n cat_n onion_n and_o vile_a thing_n and_o therefore_o their_o idolatry_n be_v vile_a so_o the_o vile_a any_o thing_n be_v that_o a_o

the_o thing_n of_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n that_o god_n have_v make_v the_o earth_n be_v the_o mean_a it_o be_v the_o base_a and_o low_a thing_n and_o have_v the_o least_o beauty_n in_o it_o in_o its_o self_n and_o it_o be_v the_o most_o dull_a and_o mean_a element_n of_o all_o and_o to_o make_v earthly_a thing_n to_o be_v a_o god_n to_o you_o this_o be_v most_o vile_a object_n you_o will_v say_v for_o this_o idolatry_n what_o be_v there_o in_o it_o answ_n there_o be_v two_o particular_n to_o open_a the_o evil_a of_o idolatry_n or_o earthly-mindednesse_a first_o the_o evil_a of_o your_o idolatry_n it_o be_v in_o this_o you_o do_v depart_v from_o god_n in_o let_v out_o of_o your_o heart_n to_o these_o thing_n you_o do_v as_o it_o be_v go_v off_o from_o god_n and_o renounce_v the_o protection_n of_o god_n the_o goodness_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n you_o leave_v it_o all_o by_o this_o in_o the_o 4._o chap._n of_o hofea_n 12._o verse_n they_o be_v say_v to_o go_v a_o whore_v from_o under_o their_o god_n it_o be_v a_o notable_a phrase_n that_o be_v by_o go_v to_o idol_n they_o do_v go_v off_o from_o the_o protection_n of_o god_n whereas_o while_o they_o be_v worship_v the_o true_a god_n they_o then_o be_v under_o the_o protection_n of_o god_n but_o when_o they_o go_v to_o idol_n they_o go_v from_o under_o their_o god_n from_o under_o his_o protection_n so_o when_o thou_o set_v thy_o heart_n upon_o god_n and_o lift_a up_o the_o infinite_a first_n be_v of_o all_o thing_n as_o the_o chief_a good_a to_o thy_o soul_n thou_o be_v under_o the_o influence_n of_o this_o grace_n and_o mercy_n but_o when_o thou_o do_v depart_v from_o he_o and_o make_v other_o thing_n to_o be_v thy_o chief_a good_a thou_o go_v from_o under_o his_o protection_n and_o from_o his_o good_a and_o mercy_n second_o god_n be_v slight_v and_o contemn_v in_o this_o when_o thou_o choose_v rather_o to_o make_v the_o earth_n to_o be_v thy_o god_n than_o the_o infinite_a bless_a first-being_a of_o all_o thing_n as_o a_o man_n that_o do_v despise_v his_o wife_n and_o it_o be_v abominable_a sin_n if_o he_o shall_v choose_v to_o go_v to_o a_o queen_n though_o the_o most_o beautiful_a woman_n in_o the_o world_n and_o forsake_v his_o wife_n but_o to_o leave_v a_o queen_n or_o empress_n that_o be_v the_o beautiful_a woman_n upon_o the_o earth_n and_o to_o have_v the_o heart_n cleave_v to_o a_o base_a dunghill-rake_a be_v not_o this_o a_o great_a contempt_n to_o the_o queen_n that_o be_v so_o beautiful_a yet_o so_o it_o be_v when_o thou_o do_v forsake_v the_o bless_a eternal_a god_n as_o thy_o chief_a good_a and_o choose_v the_o thing_n of_o the_o earth_n for_o the_o truth_n be_v the_o earth_n be_v the_o fink_n of_o all_o the_o creature_n of_o god_n make_v and_o for_o thou_o to_o leave_v the_o most_o bless_a and_o eternal_a one_o and_o to_o make_v that_o thy_o god_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o very_a vile_a and_o abominable_a thing_n and_o therefore_o the_o prophet_n jeremiah_n in_o speak_v of_o this_o idolatry_n he_o call_v the_o heaven_n and_o the_o earth_n to_o be_v amaze_v at_o it_o jeremiah_n 2._o 12._o be_v astonish_v o_fw-mi you_o heaven_n at_o this_o and_o be_v horrible_a afraid_a be_v you_o very_o desolate_a say_v the_o lord_n why_o what_o be_v the_o matter_n for_o my_o people_n have_v commit_v two_o evil_n they_o have_v forsake_v i_o the_o fountain_n of_o live_a water_n and_o hew_v they_o out_o cistern_n break_a cistern_n that_o can_v hold_v no_o water_n so_o it_o be_v here_o thou_o forsake_v the_o fountain_n of_o live_a water_n the_o bless_a god_n and_o thy_o heart_n cleave_v to_o the_o dust_n and_o seek_v thy_o contentment_n and_o happiness_n in_o cistern_n that_o can_v hold_v no_o water_n let_v the_o heaven_n be_v astonish_v at_o this_o
