religious_a you_o will_v quarrel_v as_o derogate_a from_o god_n let_v we_o therefore_o call_v it_o a_o sacred_a veneration_n or_o honour_n for_o since_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v appoint_v on_o purpose_n to_o mind_v we_o of_o god_n of_o heaven_n and_o the_o salvation_n of_o our_o soul_n we_o call_v they_o sacred_a this_o name_n may_v well_o be_v apply_v to_o such_o a_o picture_n but_o moreover_o because_o there_o be_v not_o invent_v such_o variety_n of_o name_n as_o there_o be_v thing_n and_o there_o be_v far_o few_o sort_n of_o outward_a posture_n of_o our_o body_n denote_v respect_n than_o there_o be_v name_n or_o word_n hence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o when_o we_o will_v express_v a_o civil_a and_o a_o sacred_a yea_o a_o religious_a respect_n we_o be_v force_v to_o use_v the_o same_o outward_a behaviour_n of_o bow_v kneeling_z etc._n etc._n to_o father_n and_o magistrate_n that_o we_o do_v to_o god_n himself_o yea_o we_o find_v in_o the_o scripture_n king_n adore_v and_o a_o prostration_n of_o body_n pay_v to_o they_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o no_o man_n will_v suspect_v that_o thereby_o any_o dishonour_n be_v intend_v to_o god_n or_o the_o honour_n due_a only_o to_o he_o be_v pay_v to_o creature_n 29._o in_o the_o next_o place_n let_v reason_n and_o common_a sense_n give_v judgement_n of_o the_o distinction_n between_o the_o respect_n that_o may_v be_v pay_v to_o the_o picture_n of_o st._n peter_n and_o that_o which_o ought_v to_o be_v pay_v to_o himself_o in_o case_n he_o appear_v to_o we_o glorify_v as_o he_o be_v a_o divine_a respect_n we_o pay_v to_o neither_o though_o sometime_o we_o use_v such_o posture_n as_o we_o do_v when_o we_o pray_v or_o worship_n god_n it_o be_v then_o a_o sacred_a veneration_n only_o but_o yet_o there_o be_v some_o expression_n of_o respect_n that_o we_o will_v use_v to_o the_o person_n that_o will_v be_v ridiculous_a to_o the_o picture_n as_o reverent_o to_o speak_v to_o he_o to_o beg_v his_o prayer_n to_o god_n for_o we_o to_o ask_v a_o question_n etc._n etc._n 30._o our_o last_o enquiry_n shall_v be_v into_o the_o difference_n of_o regard_n if_o any_o there_o be_v to_o our_o saviour_n picture_n and_o s._n peter_n the_o former_a represent_v to_o we_o he_o that_o be_v both_o god_n and_o man_n the_o latter_a mere_o man_n however_o we_o shall_v find_v that_o the_o regard_n to_o both_o the_o picture_n be_v of_o the_o same_o species_n and_o nature_n that_o be_v only_o sacred_a because_o a_o picture_n we_o never_o look_v upon_o but_o as_o a_o instrument_n to_o put_v we_o in_o mind_n or_o to_o call_v to_o our_o memory_n a_o object_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v of_o our_o own_o frame_a be_v not_o capable_a of_o any_o respect_n beyond_o that_o which_o be_v due_a to_o so_o material_a inferior_a a_o thing_n what_o ever_o the_o object_n represent_v by_o it_o be_v true_a it_o be_v that_o the_o internal_a affection_n and_o thought_n occasional_o raise_v in_o our_o mind_n will_v be_v infinite_o different_a for_o we_o shall_v think_v upon_o christ_n with_o adoration_n love_n resignation_n and_o obedience_n due_a to_o god_n only_o not_o so_o of_o st._n peter_n but_o the_o picture_n themselves_o will_v be_v treat_v by_o we_o as_o sacred_a picture_n only_o that_o deserve_v a_o respect_n proportionable_a and_o since_o it_o be_v evident_a they_o be_v capable_a of_o a_o sinful_a disrespect_n consequent_o a_o due_a respect_n may_v be_v pay_v to_o they_o i_o say_v may_v be_v not_o always_o aught_o to_o be_v for_o than_o it_o will_v never_o be_v fit_a to_o put_v on_o one_o hat_n etc._n etc._n in_o a_o room_n where_o there_o hang_v a_o crucifix_n 31._o to_o sum_n up_o brief_o our_o meaning_n in_o this_o whole_a matter_n we_o find_v our_o mind_n too_o apt_a to_o be_v distract_v from_o meditate_v on_o divine_a thing_n therefore_o we_o help_v ourselves_o by_o such_o thing_n as_o will_v call_v to_o our_o memory_n and_o fix_v our_o thought_n upon_o object_n good_a for_o our_o soul_n to_o be_v think_v upon_o such_o be_v holy_a picture_n both_o in_o time_n of_o prayer_n and_o out_o we_o find_v this_o benefit_n by_o they_o be_v such_o sacred_a thing_n we_o must_v renounce_v our_o reason_n if_o we_o deny_v a_o respect_n may_v be_v due_a to_o they_o but_o by_o honour_v with_o a_o outward_a regard_n a_o picture_n we_o intend_v only_o to_o give_v a_o testimony_n what_o respect_v we_o bear_v to_o the_o person_n or_o holy_a thing_n represent_v and_o though_o for_o want_n of_o variety_n of_o posture_n we_o show_v some_o part_n of_o the_o same_o outward_a reverence_n to_o the_o picture_n of_o st._n peter_n and_o our_o lord_n yet_o that_o signify_v we_o only_o venerate_a st._n peter_n as_o a_o glorious_a saint_n yet_o a_o creature_n but_o that_o we_o adore_v christ_n as_o god_n and_o no_o man_n that_o see_v or_o know_v we_o can_v think_v otherwise_o so_o that_o unless_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n to_o show_v outward_o what_o we_o be_v oblige_v to_o think_v inward_o there_o be_v not_o the_o least_o fault_n commit_v 32._o and_o now_o mr._n bagshaw_n give_v i_o leave_v to_o acquaint_v you_o with_o your_o mistake_n first_o this_o respect_n call_v by_o the_o church_n honour_n and_o veneration_n which_o we_o affirm_v may_v be_v pay_v to_o sacred_a image_n you_o call_v worship_v of_o image_n mere_o to_o make_v we_o odious_a to_o your_o ignorant_a proselyte_n for_o worship_n be_v common_o take_v to_o be_v that_o honour_n which_o be_v due_a only_a to_o god_n and_o which_o we_o abhor_v to_o give_v to_o image_n but_o second_o you_o give_v it_o another_o name_n more_o abominable_a call_v it_o idolatry_n such_o as_o god_n punish_v in_o the_o worst_a of_o pagan_n once_o at_o least_o in_o your_o life_n speak_v your_o conscience_n do_v you_o think_v or_o only_o suspect_v that_o we_o roman_a catholic_n do_v worship_n false_a god_n and_o true_a devil_n do_v we_o consider_v our_o image_n as_o they_o do_v their_o idol_n to_o which_o by_o magical_a conjuration_n they_o annex_v a_o evil_a spirit_n to_o do_v wonder_n and_o to_o extort_v divine_a worship_n from_o the_o seduce_a people_n take_v heed_n sir_n how_o you_o persist_v in_o so_o unjust_a a_o blasphemy_n against_o god_n church_n a_o time_n will_v come_v that_o you_o will_v be_v call_v to_o a_o strict_a account_n for_o it_o it_o concern_v you_o therefore_o to_o make_v some_o reparation_n 33._o but_o after_o all_o this_o take_v notice_n that_o the_o catholic_n church_n though_o it_o declare_v that_o such_o a_o veneration_n may_v fit_o be_v give_v to_o holy_a image_n as_o common_a reason_n and_o humane_a nature_n can_v choose_v but_o allow_v yet_o it_o command_v none_o to_o afford_v they_o but_o even_o so_o much_o you_o may_v be_v a_o roman_n catholic_n all_o your_o life_n and_o yet_o never_o be_v oblige_v to_o perform_v any_o external_a respect_n to_o a_o image_n there_o be_v not_o in_o catholic_n country_n a_o groom_n or_o kitchenmaid_n so_o ignorant_a but_o will_v rather_o burn_v a_o image_n then_o afford_v it_o any_o honour_n due_a to_o god_n only_o and_o shall_v those_o that_o think_v thus_o and_o do_v only_o what_o humane_a reason_n general_o

catholic_n be_v idolater_n or_o even_o faulty_a in_o the_o matter_n of_o image_n till_o you_o can_v demonstrate_v 1._o that_o it_o be_v unlawful_a to_o make_v use_n of_o our_o see_v faculty_n to_o
