of_o pagan_a idolatry_n worship_v creature_n and_o different_a kind_n of_o go_n in_o which_o passage_n of_o this_o father_n these_o thing_n be_v observable_a 1._o that_o the_o arrian_n be_v charge_v

odious_a turpitude_n of_o pagan_a idolatry_n because_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o arrian_n give_v much_o a_o inferior_a worship_n to_o christ_n the_o son_n or_o word_n of_o god_n who_o they_o contend_v to_o be_v a_o mere_a creature_n make_v in_o time_n mutable_a and_o defectible_a than_o they_o do_v to_o that_o eternal_a god_n who_o be_v the_o creator_n of_o he_o now_o if_o the_o arrian_n who_o zealous_o contend_v for_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o godhead_n be_v nevertheless_o by_o those_o father_n condemn_v as_o guilty_a of_o pagan_a idolatry_n for_o bestow_v but_o a_o inferior_a kind_n of_o religious_a worship_n upon_o christ_n the_o son_n or_o word_n of_o god_n himself_o as_o he_o be_v suppose_v by_o they_o to_o be_v a_o creature_n then_o certain_o can_v papist_n be_v excuse_v from_o that_o guilt_n who_o bestow_v religious_a worship_n upon_o these_o other_o creature_n angel_n and_o soul_n of_o man_n though_o inferior_a to_o what_o they_o give_v to_o the_o supreme_a omnipotent_a god_n the_o creator_n of_o all_o because_o the_o son_n or_o word_n of_o god_n however_o conceive_v by_o these_o arrian_n to_o be_v a_o creature_n yet_o be_v look_v upon_o by_o they_o as_o

therefore_o if_o it_o be_v idolatry_n in_o they_o to_o give_v a_o inferior_a kind_n of_o religious_a worship_n to_o this_o son_n and_o word_n of_o god_n himself_o according_a to_o their_o hypothesis_n then_o can_v it_o not_o possible_o be_v account_v less_o to_o bestow_v the_o same_o upon_o those_o other_o creature_n make_v by_o he_o as_o angel_n and_o man_n decease_v i_o confess_v there_o be_v

the_o saint_n and_o martyr_n who_o the_o roman_a catholic_n worship_n be_v worthy_a of_o some_o veneration_n of_o the_o mind_n for_o their_o excellent_a virtue_n and_o constancy_n in_o persecution_n but_o to_o worship_v the_o star_n that_o have_v neither_o sense_n nor_o reason_n be_v ridiculous_a and_o no_o honour_n can_v be_v due_a to_o the_o memory_n of_o impious_a and_o flagitious_a king_n such_o as_o jupiter_n be_v and_o as_o for_o daemon_n they_o ought_v to_o be_v detest_v by_o all_o good_a man_n as_o hater_n of_o god_n and_o virtue_n 3._o the_o romanist_n indeed_o attribute_v to_o
