of_o the_o devil_n but_o vary_v it_o how_o they_o will_v i_o force_v not_o so_o the_o definition_n remain_v superstition_n then_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o our_o separation_n it_o be_v also_o to_o be_v think_v that_o we_o can_v not_o allow_v any_o superstitious_a doctrine_n but_o discretion_n be_v needful_a to_o be_v have_v in_o clear_v the_o cause_n of_o superstition_n from_o that_o that_o concern_v the_o state_n and_o not_o to_o condemn_v any_o thing_n rash_o the_o superstition_n that_o cause_v we_o to_o abandon_v the_o pope_n party_n be_v the_o worship_v of_o image_n and_o relic_n the_o invocation_n of_o saint_n purgatory_n transubstantiation_n artolatrie_n tradition_n the_o pope_n order_n establish_v by_o superstitious_a tradition_n false_a and_o faleable_a pardon_n false_a merit_n derogatory_n to_o christ_n merit_n and_o such_o like_a as_o for_o image_n it_o be_v a_o matter_n sufficient_o beat_v by_o other_o and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o enter_v into_o particularity_n for_o it_o be_v manifest_a enough_o that_o the_o worship_v of_o they_o be_v idolatry_n i_o know_v that_o every_o image_n be_v not_o a_o idol_n also_o that_o a_o image_n simple_o make_v not_o a_o idol_n but_o the_o worship_n thereof_o which_o be_v superstition_n for_o it_o be_v write_v thou_o shall_v not_o honour_v it_o but_o we_o do_v honour_n it_o when_o we_o celebrate_v it_o with_o any_o worship_n i_o also_o grant_v that_o a_o image_n set_v up_o for_o a_o history_n be_v no_o idol_n as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o temple_n of_o those_o that_o be_v call_v lutheran_n in_o germany_n but_o if_o we_o attribute_v any_o virtue_n thereto_o it_o be_v superstition_n for_o the_o virtue_n that_o we_o attribute_v be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o worship_n and_o honour_n thereto_o yet_o be_v it_o good_a utter_o to_o purge_v god_n church_n from_o these_o image_n which_o have_v be_v cause_n of_o the_o people_n idolatry_n howbeit_o it_o be_v to_o be_v wish_v that_o it_o may_v be_v do_v by_o the_o king_n authority_n and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v marvel_v that_o in_o the_o church_n there_o be_v the_o image_n of_o god_n the_o father_n 4._o since_o god_n himself_o have_v so_o express_o forbid_v it_o for_o if_o they_o may_v take_v place_n the_o heathen_a ought_v not_o to_o be_v reprove_v for_o their_o image_n of_o jupiter_n for_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o by_o jupiter_n they_o understand_v jove_n pater_fw-la and_o it_o be_v a_o ancient_a character_n of_o noah_n religion_n who_o call_v god_n jehova_n and_o the_o poet_n say_v jovis_fw-la omne_fw-la plena_fw-la speak_v of_o the_o great_a god_n creator_n of_o all_o thing_n i_o will_v omit_v all_o poetical_a fiction_n neither_o do_v my_o argument_n lead_v i_o to_o speak_v of_o they_o as_o for_o the_o image_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o his_o saint_n if_o that_o of_o jesus_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v worship_v much_o less_o ought_v those_o of_o the_o saint_n but_o that_o of_o jesus_n christ_n must_v not_o be_v worship_v it_o be_v then_o in_o vain_a to_o worship_v those_o of_o saint_n some_o man_n may_v say_v that_o they_o worship_v they_o not_o hereto_o i_o answer_v that_o when_o we_o exhibit_v so_o great_a reverence_n to_o any_o thing_n as_o we_o can_v not_o exhibit_v more_o to_o god_n himself_o we_o worship_v that_o thing_n but_o such_o be_v the_o worship_n that_o be_v do_v to_o image_n before_o the_o which_o we_o uncover_v our_o head_n bend_v our_o knee_n hold_v up_o our_o hand_n make_v our_o prayer_n present_v our_o offering_n and_o such_o like_a tell_v i_o then_o i_o pray_v you_o what_o more_o can_v we_o do_v to_o god_n himself_o but_o the_o subtle_a sort_n do_v say_v ween_v you_o that_o when_o i_o kneel_v before_o a_o crucifix_n of_o wood_n or_o stone_n i_o pray_v to_o the_o wood_n or_o stone_n no_o i_o do_v it_o to_o the_o thing_n represent_v by_o that_o wooden_a crucifix_n and_o look_v thereupon_o do_v direct_v my_o prayer_n to_o christ_n think_v you_o say_v they_o that_o i_o be_o so_o senseless_a as_o to_o stay_v upon_o this_o visible_a image_n i_o eye_n be_v in_o deed_n upon_o the_o visible_a image_n but_o my_o hart_n be_v with_o jesus_n christ_n that_o be_v in_o heaven_n 18._o but_o let_v i_o ask_v thou_o think_v thou_o that_o they_o which_o sacrifice_v to_o the_o brazen_a serpent_n have_v not_o the_o like_a start_a hole_n they_o have_v more_o reason_n to_o sacrifice_v thereto_o than_o thou_o to_o a_o crucifix_n for_o it_o figure_v jesus_n christ_n hang_v on_o the_o wood_n and_o whereas_o thy_o crucifix_n be_v erect_v by_o superstitious_a man_n without_o any_o commandment_n from_o god_n that_o be_v erect_v by_o god_n express_a commandment_n and_o whereas_o some_o of_o thy_o crucifix_n be_v authorise_v by_o false_a miracle_n that_o be_v famous_a by_o the_o miracle_n wrought_v in_o the_o desert_n by_o heal_v such_o as_o the_o serpent_n have_v bite_v all_o which_o notwithstanding_o when_o the_o people_n begin_v to_o sacrifice_v thereto_o ezechias_n break_v it_o say_v that_o it_o be_v but_o brass_n wherefore_o if_o these_o start_a hole_n shall_v take_v place_n who_o doubt_v but_o the_o israelite_n will_v have_v have_v the_o like_a thou_o worship_v say_v thou_o jesus_n christ_n and_o be_v not_o so_o senseless_a as_o to_o worship_v the_o crucifix_n ween_v thou_o the_o israelite_n be_v so_o senseless_a as_o to_o worship_v the_o brazen_a serpent_n and_o not_o rather_o he_o that_o be_v thereupon_o figure_v hang_v upon_o the_o wood_n or_o think_v thou_o that_o they_o be_v so_o ignorant_a that_o they_o know_v it_o not_o to_o be_v the_o figure_n of_o the_o messiah_n since_o they_o live_v in_o a_o time_n so_o illuminate_v with_o prophet_n as_o be_v the_o time_n of_o ezechias_n have_v such_o shift_n take_v place_n ezechias_n will_v never_o have_v destroy_v the_o brazen_a serpent_n which_o notwithstanding_o these_o shift_n be_v break_v thy_o excuse_n also_o take_v no_o place_n thou_o will_v say_v that_o they_o sacrifice_v to_o the_o brazen_a serpent_n but_o that_o thou_o do_v not_o sacrifice_v to_o the_o crucifix_n i_o answer_v that_o there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o sacrifice_n the_o one_o burn_a offering_n the_o other_o meat_n offering_n the_o burn_a offering_n be_v make_v of_o beast_n the_o meat_n offering_n of_o fruit_n as_o of_o corn_n wine_n bread_n oil_n &_o such_o like_a wherefore_o when_o thou_o offere_v the_o like_a thing_n to_o the_o crucifix_n thou_o sacrifice_a again_o to_o the_o brazen_a serpent_n and_o when_o thou_o make_v those_o offering_n before_o the_o image_n of_o saint_n thou_o do_v yet_o worse_o to_o be_v brief_a all_o these_o excuse_n be_v but_o start_a hole_n and_o it_o be_v no_o heresy_n to_o abandon_v such_o superstition_n yea_o this_o superstitious_a worship_n be_v the_o cause_n that_o just_o we_o may_v well_o call_v they_o idol_n 10._o and_o s._n paul_n teach_v we_o what_o soever_o be_v sacrifice_v to_o idol_n be_v offer_v to_o idol_n wherein_o we_o do_v learn_v that_o the_o idol_n which_o in_o old_a time_n answer_v by_o oracle_n be_v devil_n yea_o there_o be_v some_o divine_v which_o note_v the_o worship_n of_o the_o image_n of_o saint_n and_o there_o be_v image_n under_o the_o catholic_a religion_n that_o abuse_v the_o world_n which_o think_v that_o the_o saint_n do_v work_v miracle_n albeit_o they_o be_v such_o miracle_n as_o the_o old_a oracle_n wrought_v long_o ago_o wherein_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o they_o be_v the_o same_o devil_n which_o abuse_v the_o people_n have_v only_o change_v their_o name_n in_o old_a time_n they_o will_v be_v call_v god_n and_o now_o they_o be_v term_v saint_n the_o god_n of_o old_a time_n have_v their_o priest_n and_o sibyl_n and_o now_o the_o saint_n have_v their_o soothsayer_n they_o frame_v themselves_o to_o the_o time_n but_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n the_o people_n be_v abuse_v think_v because_o the_o name_n be_v alter_v the_o matter_n be_v change_v as_o for_o the_o distinction_n of_o honour_n latrie_n doulie_n &_o hiperdoulie_n it_o be_v a_o other_o kind_n of_o shift_n which_o have_v neither_o reason_n nor_o ground_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n now_o therefore_o do_v i_o appeal_v to_o every_o man_n judgement_n in_o this_o matter_n viz._n that_o since_o they_o worship_v image_n whether_o this_o worship_n may_v not_o be_v take_v for_o superstition_n and_o idolatry_n also_o whether_o this_o worship_n make_v not_o their_o image_n idol_n and_o s._n paul_n testify_v that_o idol_n be_v devil_n therefore_o these_o image_n whereto_o they_o erect_v worship_n be_v devil_n that_o be_v to_o say_v devil_n be_v worship_v in_o they_o and_o so_o be_v devil_n we_o be_v not_o to_o have_v any_o acquaintance_n with_o they_o for_o saint_n paul_n tell_v we_o that_o we_o can_v not_o participate_v both_o in_o the_o cup_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o in_o the_o cup_n of_o devil_n
