sense_n of_o our_o church_n so_o he_o do_v rest_n in_o this_o that_o it_o contain_v a_o godly_a and_o wholesome_a doctrine_n necessary_a for_o those_o time_n mean_v the_o time_n in_o which_o and_o for_o which_o this_o homily_n against_o image_n and_o the_o peril_n of_o idolatry_n be_v special_o make_v and_o if_o he_o think_v it_o godly_a wholesome_a and_o necessary_a he_o can_v not_o but_o think_v it_o true._n 5._o therefore_o i_o shall_v conclude_v that_o this_o homily_n ought_v to_o be_v appeal_v to_o in_o this_o controversy_n with_o the_o discourser_n as_o the_o homily_n that_o contain_v the_o deliberate_a and_o settle_a judgement_n of_o our_o church_n and_o such_o doctrine_n as_o be_v necessary_a for_o these_o our_o time_n as_o well_o as_o for_o those_o when_o it_o be_v first_o write_v now_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o first_o part_n of_o this_o homily_n our_o church_n roundly_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o bring_n in_o of_o image_n into_o the_o church_n in_o those_o latter_a day_n have_v nothing_o at_o all_o profit_v such_o as_o be_v wise_a and_o of_o understanding_n but_o have_v great_o hurt_v the_o simple_a and_o unwise_a occasion_v they_o thereby_o to_o commit_v most_o horrible_a idolatry_n then_o have_v note_v that_o the_o word_n idol_n and_o image_n be_v of_o the_o the_o same_o signification_n in_o the_o scripture_n she_o prove_v by_o several_a text_n out_o of_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o the_o new_a that_o image_n be_v neither_o to_o be_v worship_v nor_o so_o much_o as_o use_v or_o have_v in_o church_n for_o fear_n and_o occasion_n of_o worship_v they_o though_o they_o be_v of_o themselves_o thing_n indifferent_a for_o so_o she_o desire_v to_o be_v always_o understand_v to_o speak_v not_o only_o against_o idolatry_n and_o worship_v of_o image_n but_o also_o against_o idol_n and_o image_n themselves_o in_o case_n man_n be_v stir_v and_o provoke_v by_o they_o to_o worship_n they_o and_o not_o as_o though_o they_o be_v simple_o forbid_v without_o such_o occasion_n and_o danger_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o three_o part_n of_o that_o homily_n in_o the_o second_o part_n she_o give_v a_o historical_a relation_n of_o the_o rise_n and_o progress_n of_o image-worship_n in_o the_o christian_a church_n the_o sum_n whereof_o be_v this_o that_o image_n and_o image-worshipping_a be_v in_o the_o primitive_a church_n which_o be_v most_o pure_a and_o uncorrupt_a abhor_a and_o detest_a as_o abominable_a and_o contrary_a to_o true_a christian_a religion_n and_o that_o when_o image_n begin_v to_o creep_v into_o the_o church_n they_o be_v not_o only_o speak_v and_o write_v against_o by_o godly_a and_o learned_a bishop_n doctor_n and_o clerk_n but_o also_o condemn_v by_o whole_a council_n of_o bishop_n and_o learned_a man_n assemble_v together_o yea_o the_o say_a image_n by_o many_o christian_a emperor_n and_o bishop_n be_v deface_v break_a and_o destroy_v etc._n etc._n and_o i_o free_o leave_v to_o all_o man_n of_o knowledge_n and_o integrity_n to_o judge_v whether_o in_o that_o historical_a account_n i_o send_v you_o there_o be_v any_o thing_n which_o be_v inconsistent_a either_o with_o the_o doctrine_n of_o our_o church_n as_o to_o image_n and_o image-worship_n or_o with_o the_o historical_a account_n which_o our_o church_n herself_o give_v we_o i_o think_v indeed_o there_o be_v a_o observation_n which_o our_o church_n there_o make_v but_o i_o do_v not_o that_o the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n be_v no_o ordinary_a magistrate_n appoint_v of_o god_n out_o of_o their_o diocese_n but_o usurper_n of_o prince_n authority_n contrary_a to_o god_n word_n be_v the_o maintainer_n of_o image_n against_o god_n word_n and_o stirrer_n up_o of_o sedition_n and_o rebellion_n and_o worker_n of_o continual_a treason_n against_o their_o sovereign_a lord_n contrary_a to_o god_n law_n and_o the_o ordinance_n of_o all_o humane_a law_n be_v not_o only_a enemy_n to_o god_n but_o also_o rebel_n and_o traitor_n against_o their_o prince_n these_o be_v the_o first_o bringer_n in_o of_o image_n open_o into_o church_n these_o be_v the_o maintainer_n of_o they_o in_o the_o church_n and_o these_o be_v the_o mean_n whereby_o they_o maintain_v they_o to_o wit_n conspiracy_n treason_n and_o rebellion_n against_o god_n and_o their_o prince_n as_o i_o remember_v i_o do_v not_o observe_v this_o at_o least_o not_o so_o full_o but_o if_o that_o be_v a_o fault_n i_o suppose_v this_o discourser_n will_v ready_o forgive_v it_o if_o not_o it_o be_v a_o even_a lay_n but_o some_o other_o time_n i_o may_v make_v he_o amends_o in_o the_o three_o part_n of_o this_o homily_n our_o church_n do_v purposely_o answer_v those_o allegation_n and_o plea_n which_o be_v common_o use_v by_o the_o romanist_n to_o excuse_v and_o justify_v their_o practice_n in_o this_o point_n as_o that_o their_o image_n be_v not_o of_o any_o heathen_a idol_n but_o of_o god_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o saint_n that_o the_o make_n of_o image_n be_v a_o thing_n in_o itself_o indifferent_a that_o they_o exhibit_v honour_v not_o to_o the_o image_n but_o to_o exemplar_n represent_v by_o it_o and_o that_o image_n be_v layman_n book_n and_o throughout_o this_o long_a sermon_n our_o church_n declare_v her_o sense_n 1._o that_o the_o image_n of_o god_n the_o father_n the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v unlawful_a to_o be_v make_v 2._o that_o though_o the_o art_n of_o paint_v and_o image_n make_v be_v not_o wicked_a of_o itself_o and_o such_o image_n may_v be_v suffer_v as_o be_v use_v for_o no_o religion_n or_o superstition_n rather_o she_o mean_v of_o none_o worship_v nor_o in_o danger_n to_o be_v worship_v of_o any_o yet_o consider_v the_o great_a danger_n of_o idolatry_n and_o the_o strong_a inclination_n of_o people_n to_o it_o image_n be_v not_o to_o be_v public_o have_v and_o suffer_v in_o church_n which_o danger_n she_o show_v at_o large_a because_o all_o image_n public_o set_v up_o have_v be_v worship_v not_o by_o the_o simple_a sort_n only_o but_o in_o conclusion_n by_o the_o learned_a also_o and_o because_o she_o conceive_v it_o impossible_a that_o image_n of_o god_n christ_n or_o his_o saint_n can_v be_v suffer_v especial_o any_o considerable_a time_n or_o space_n without_o worship_v of_o they_o 3._o she_o show_v that_o the_o saint_n neither_o desire_n nor_o aught_o to_o be_v honour_v by_o image_n that_o the_o distinction_n of_o latria_n and_o dulia_n be_v a_o lewd_a distinction_n that_o the_o pretence_n of_o honour_v the_o prototype_n by_o the_o image_n be_v a_o old_a heathen_a shift_n and_o that_o though_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o honour_n be_v give_v to_o the_o prototype_n yet_o this_o be_v only_o to_o palliate_v the_o matter_n for_o

also_o by_o produce_v the_o authority_n of_o jacobus_n naclantus_fw-la a_o eminent_a divine_a in_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n that_o it_o be_v not_o only_o to_o be_v confess_v that_o the_o faithful_a in_o the_o church_n do_v worship_n before_o a_o image_n as_o some_o peradventure_o do_v wary_o speak_v but_o also_o do_v worship_n the_o image_n itself_o without_o any_o scruple_n or_o doubt_n at_o all_o yea_o and_o they_o worship_v the_o image_n with_o the_o same_o kind_n of_o worship_n wherewith_o they_o worship_v the_o prototype_n wherefore_o if_o the_o prototype_n be_v to_o be_v
