that_o the_o church_n of_o england_n may_v not_o be_v injure_v for_o the_o clear_n of_o this_o too_o i_o shall_v refer_v you_o to_o our_o book_n of_o homily_n because_o without_o all_o question_n it_o

homily_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o as_o godly_a and_o wholesome_a sermon_n contain_v doctrine_n to_o be_v receive_v of_o all_o man_n doctrinam_fw-la ab_fw-la omnibus_fw-la amplectendam_fw-la as_o appear_v by_o the_o article_n concern_v it_o anno_fw-la 1552._o 2._o that_o the_o second_o book_n of_o homily_n wherein_o this_o against_o peril_n of_o idolatry_n be_v one_o be_v also_o judge_v to_o contain_v godly_a and_o wholesome_a doctrine_n as_o well_o as_o the_o former_a book_n and_o therefore_o be_v appoint_v to_o be_v read_v as_o the_o former_a be_v in_o all_o church_n diligent_o and_o distinct_o which_o plain_o argue_v that_o it_o be_v set_v out_o also_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o as_o contain_v doctrine_n to_o be_v receive_v of_o all_o as_o the_o other_o be_v judge_v to_o contain_v 3._o this_o particular_a homily_n whereof_o i_o now_o speak_v be_v upon_o a_o point_n of_o national_a concernment_n and_o in_o the_o judgement_n of_o our_o church_n about_o a_o most_o important_a case_n of_o conscience_n beside_o it_o be_v conceive_v and_o pen_v upon_o the_o great_a consideration_n and_o judgement_n as_o we_o find_v by_o that_o variety_n of_o choice_n learn_v in_o it_o beyond_o what_o be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o all_o the_o homily_n beside_o and_o it_o be_v remarkable_a too_o that_o it_o be_v intend_v not_o only_o for_o the_o information_n of_o the_o people_n but_o also_o for_o the_o instruction_n of_o curate_n themselves_o and_o man_n of_o good_a understanding_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o title_n of_o the_o three_o part_n of_o it_o so_o that_o if_o any_o other_o may_v yet_o this_o homily_n can_v be_v think_v a_o mere_a popular_a sermon_n for_o it_o be_v not_o so_o popular_a but_o rather_o the_o decisive_n and_o dogmatical_a resolution_n of_o our_o church_n in_o this_o case_n about_o image_n 4._o as_o the_o learned_a montague_n do_v not_o deny_v but_o that_o this_o homily_n contain_v the_o public_a
to_o be_v honour_v with_o the_o same_o honour_n and_o worship_v with_o the_o same_o worship_n that_o be_v give_v to_o the_o object_n whereof_o it_o be_v the_o image_n and_o hence_o mr._n montague_n conclude_v cap._n 22._o that_o popish_a practice_n and_o popish_a doctrine_n fetch_v in_o all_o and_o run_v out_o into_o the_o extravagant_a idolatrous_a blasphemous_a doctrine_n of_o religious_a adoration_n either_o primary_n or_o secondary_a absolute_a or_o respective_a to_o that_o of_o thomas_n cabrera_n vasquez_n the_o devil_n and_o all_o sir_n i_o hope_v by_o this_o you_o be_v satisfy_v that_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v not_o in_o any_o the_o least_o measure_n for_o a_o image-worship_n as_o this_o discourser_n have_v the_o confidence_n to_o affirm_v pag._n 20._o and_o that_o in_o the_o account_n i_o send_v you_o i_o have_v not_o abuse_v my_o own_o church_n nor_o expose_v i_o own_o church_n nor_o injure_v my_o mother_n or_o any_o of_o my_o mother_n son_n which_o be_v the_o principal_a thing_n i_o be_v to_o convince_v you_o of_o and_o now_o as_o to_o what_o concern_v immediate_o myself_o i_o be_o in_o comparison_n regardless_o his_o ill_a langague_n i_o can_v patient_o bear_v and_o take_v it_o for_o a_o honour_n from_o a_o man_n of_o his_o kidney_n yet_o there_o be_v some_o few_o thing_n more_o which_o i_o must_v take_v a_o little_a notice_n of_o for_o my_o vindication_n whereas_o i_o tell_v you_o 1._o that_o the_o first_o make_v of_o picture_n proceed_v partly_o from_o heretic_n the_o gnostic_n 2._o that_o it_o come_v chief_o from_o the_o fond_a inclination_n of_o gentile-converts_a 3._o that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n as_o the_o use_n of_o image_n in_o the_o primitive_a age_n 4._o that_o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o a_o express_a canon_n of_o the_o council_n at_o eliberis_n and_o five_o that_o in_o the_o opinion_n of_o epiphanius_n it_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o scripture_n this_o discourser_n not_o undertake_v in_o the_o least_o to_o disprove_v all_o or_o any_o thing_n of_o this_o pretend_v only_o that_o i_o have_v shoot_v this_o bolt_n against_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o have_v disgrace_v she_o who_o as_o he_o suppose_v be_v for_o picture_n and_o so_o by_o the_o consequence_n of_o my_o discourse_n must_v be_v for_o that_o which_o come_v from_o heretic_n and_o heathen_n that_o which_o be_v not_o primitive_a that_o which_o be_v repugnant_a to_o canon_n nay_o indeed_o that_o which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o bible_n this_o be_v his_o charge_n against_o i_o pag._n 9_o &_o 10._o to_o which_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o what_o he_o suppose_v he_o have_v not_o prove_v nor_o be_v it_o true_a that_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v fond_a of_o picture_n in_o church_n the_o contrary_n i_o be_o sure_a do_v plain_o appear_v nor_o have_v she_o allow_v of_o they_o as_o far_o as_o i_o know_v by_o any_o public_a act_n of_o she_o since_o the_o reformation_n second_o by_o look_v over_o the_o homily_n i_o mention_v against_o peril_n of_o idolatry_n by_o good_a luck_n i_o find_v those_o very_a particular_a argument_n which_o this_o discourser_n cavil_v at_o to_o be_v use_v and_o urge_v by_o our_o church_n herself_o the_o first_o pag._n 135_o and_o 137_o of_o the_o late_a oxford_n edition_n the_o second_o she_o allege_v at_o large_a pag._n 120._o the_o three_o she_o show_v at_o large_a throughout_o the_o second_o part_n of_o that_o homily_n the_o four_o she_o cite_v on_o her_o side_n pag._n 128._o and_o the_o five_o she_o urge_v and_o make_v a_o large_a use_n of_o pag._n 116_o 117._o so_o that_o if_o my_o angry_a adversary_n think_v fit_a to_o strike_v the_o second_o time_n he_o may_v think_v it_o reasonable_a for_o he_o to_o turn_v his_o hand_n from_o i_o upon_o our_o church_n who_o say_v the_o same_o thing_n let_v he_o strike_v at_o she_o if_o he_o please_v though_o i_o can_v tell_v he_o beforehand_o that_o such_o blow_n as_o his_o will_v do_v our_o church_n no_o harm_n let_v he_o do_v his_o worst_a for_o several_a leaf_n next_o follow_v he_o say_v nothing_o but_o what_o i_o have_v already_o consider_v but_o then_o pag._n 20._o he_o charge_v i_o for_o manage_v the_o controversy_n with_o the_o papist_n without_o ever_n state_v the_o question_n or_o declare_v what_o the_o papist_n hold_v unbecoming_a a_o scholar_n but_o he_o shall_v have_v consider_v that_o my_o business_n be_v not_o to_o enter_v into_o a_o casuistical_a dispute_n about_o the_o lawfulness_n or_o vnlawfulness_n of_o image-worship_n but_o to_o give_v a_o

answer_v what_o i_o have_v write_v like_o a_o scholar_n and_o a_o ingenuous_a man_n that_o be_v not_o apt_a to_o be_v angry_a with_o any_o one_o for_o use_v book_n in_o the_o next_o page_n he_o ask_v i_o if_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o protestant_n and_o catholic_n as_o he_o call_v they_o to_o have_v a_o interior_a respect_n honour_n and_o reverence_n for_o holy_a image_n how_o come_v it_o to_o be_v so_o unlawful_a and_o abominable_a for_o catholic_n to_o signify_v and_o express_v outward_o this_o same_o respect_n honour_n and_o reverence_n which_o be_v so_o commendable_a for_o all_o christian_n to_o have_v inward_o in_o their_o soul_n certain_o that_o honour_n and_o reverence_n which_o in_o the_o heart_n be_v christian_n can_v but_o be_v christian_a in_o the_o expression_n and_o it_o be_v very_o absurd_a to_o think_v a_o duty_n can_v become_v idolatry_n by_o profess_v it_o as_o to_o this_o 1._o i_o first_o observe_v a_o strange_a sort_n of_o climax_n for_o first_o he_o express_v it_o be_v lawful_a to_o have_v a_o interior_a respect_n for_o image_n then_o he_o grow_v a_o little_a and_o call_v it_o a_o commendable_a thing_n and_o at_o last_o he_o call_v it_o a_o duty_n whereas_o if_o we_o consider_v what_o he_o mean_v by_o respect_n honour_n and_o reverence_n it_o be_v neither_o duty_n nor_o commendable_a nor_o lawful_a as_o the_o case_n may_v stand_v to_o have_v it_o for_o picture_n and_o image_n nor_o a_o christian_a thing_n either_o in_o the_o heart_n or_o in_o the_o expression_n but_o second_o as_o to_o the_o point_n itself_o i_o must_v ingenuous_o and_o plain_o tell_v he_o that_o i_o do_v not_o understand_v what_o substantial_a and_o solid_a ground_n any_o man_n have_v to_o have_v a_o interior_a respect_n honour_n and_o reverence_n for_o picture_n as_o picture_n and_o as_o distinct_a thing_n from_o other_o furniture_n and_o garniture_n of_o a_o church_n where_o they_o be_v i_o be_o very_o confident_a that_o the_o ancient_a christian_n have_v no_o such_o interior_a respect_n but_o hatred_n rather_o and_o that_o not_o so_o much_o upon_o prudential_n consideration_n but_o upon_o necessary_a reason_n because_o such_o respect_n be_v think_v to_o be_v contrary_a to_o god_n law._n 2._o but_o then_o if_o weak_a people_n will_v so_o far_o comply_v with_o their_o own_o nature_n as_o to_o suffer_v their_o affection_n to_o run_v out_o after_o these_o thing_n do_v it_o follow_v that_o they_o may_v express_v their_o affection_n as_o they_o please_v if_o the_o divine_a law_n require_v i_o not_o to_o bow_v down_o to_o a_o image_n or_o if_o
