to_o make_v a_o proselyte_n out_o of_o my_o desire_n to_o establish_v your_o heart_n in_o the_o true_a and_o sincere_a worship_n of_o god_n i_o shall_v beside_o my_o custom_n fall_v upon_o a_o

we_o about_o this_o people_n idolatry_n in_o worship_v this_o calf_n we_o do_v believe_v the_o sin_n be_v sinful_a above_o measure_n but_o yet_o they_o will_v make_v it_o somewhat_o worse_o than_o it_o be_v because_o they_o will_v not_o be_v think_v to_o be_v idolater_n as_o these_o be_v the_o thing_n will_v ask_v a_o little_a time_n to_o discuss_v it_o more_o than_o i_o have_v to_o day_n i_o shall_v but_o make_v a_o entrance_n into_o it_o i_o shall_v tell_v you_o what_o order_n i_o will_v take_v in_o the_o handle_n of_o it_o first_o i_o will_v show_v you_o that_o the_o make_n of_o a_o image_n be_v not_o simple_o forbid_v except_o it_o be_v in_o way_n of_o religion_n to_o worship_n and_o to_o serve_v god_n by_o it_o that_o be_v the_o first_o they_o make_v it_o and_z they_o worship_v it_o a_o second_o thing_n i_o will_v show_v be_v this_o that_o all_o application_n of_o divine_a honour_n to_o any_o image_n whatsoever_o be_v idolatry_n i_o will_v show_v you_o three_o that_o all_o idolater_n do_v change_v their_o god_n they_o change_v their_o glory_n into_o the_o similitude_n of_o that_o they_o worship_v i_o will_v show_v you_o fourthly_a that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v commit_v as_o grievous_a idolatry_n in_o worship_v their_o image_n as_o this_o people_n do_v in_o worship_v of_o this_o calf_n last_o i_o will_v show_v what_o use_n we_o be_v to_o make_v of_o the_o whole_a i_o say_v i_o can_v do_v all_o to_o day_n i_o shall_v but_o begin_v it_o but_o have_v patience_n till_o i_o can_v end_v it_o and_o if_o in_o the_o handle_n of_o these_o thing_n i_o allege_v either_o father_n or_o counsel_n or_o tradition_n of_o the_o church_n or_o history_n more_o than_o i_o use_v or_o more_o than_o i_o think_v be_v fit_a in_o popular_a sermon_n i_o pray_v bear_v with_o

the_o make_n of_o a_o image_n be_v no_o act_n of_o idolatry_n except_o it_o be_v by_o way_n of_o religion_n to_o worship_n god_n by_o it_o that_o be_v my_o first_o proposition_n god_n do_v never_o in_o the_o scripture_n simple_o forbid_v the_o make_n of_o a_o image_n he_o say_v in_o the_o second_o commandment_n thou_o shall_v not_o make_v to_o thyself_o any_o grave_a image_n it_o be_v true_a but_o you_o must_v know_v that_o that_o be_v a_o commandment_n of_o the_o first_o table_n now_o the_o first_o table_n concern_v the_o worship_n of_o god_n so_o you_o must_v understand_v it_o by_o way_n of_o relation_n to_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n thou_o shall_v not_o make_v a_o image_n if_o you_o will_v hear_v god_n expound_v his_o own_o law_n that_o it_o be_v thus_o look_v in_o levit._n 26._o 1._o you_o shall_v make_v you_o no_o idol_n nor_o grave_a image_n neither_o shall_v you_o set_v up_o any_o image_n of_o stone_n in_o your_o land_n to_o bow_v down_o unto_o it_o so_o it_o be_v not_o the_o make_n of_o the_o image_n that_o be_v forbid_v but_o the_o bow_v down_o to_o the_o image_n we_o have_v make_v or_o the_o make_n it_o to_o that_o end_n to_o bow_v down_o that_o be_v idolatry_n if_o the_o make_n of_o a_o image_n be_v simple_o and_o absolute_o evil_a then_o sure_o the_o same_o art_n and_o skill_n and_o cunning_a that_o some_o man_n have_v in_o carve_v and_o grave_v of_o image_n shall_v never_o be_v attribute_v to_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n as_o the_o author_n of_o it_o now_o you_o shall_v find_v what_o god_n say_v i_o have_v fill_v bezaleel_n and_o aholiab_n
