principal_a cause_n for_o which_o christian_n be_v not_o permit_v to_o do_v any_o religious_a service_n unto_o the_o relic_n of_o the_o dead_a afterwards_o i_o will_v refute_v the_o argument_n of_o the_o canon_n of_o awcon_n whereby_o they_o seek_v to_o prove_v the_o contrary_n final_o i_o will_v advertise_v the_o reader_n of_o the_o falsity_n of_o those_o relic_n specify_v in_o their_o index_n i_o will_v confirm_v this_o my_o proposition_n that_o christian_n be_v not_o permit_v to_o do_v any_o religious_a service_n to_o the_o relic_n of_o the_o dead_a by_o three_o reason_n whereof_o the_o first_o shall_v be_v that_o the_o tradition_n of_o visit_v and_o reverence_v religious_o the_o relic_n of_o the_o depart_a saint_n have_v no_o foundation_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n nor_o from_o the_o example_n of_o those_o which_o have_v follow_v invariable_o their_o pattern_n the_o second_o how_o some_o christian_n inconstant_a in_o their_o way_n have_v learn_v this_o superstitious_a ceremony_n in_o the_o school_n of_o the_o gentile_n have_v bring_v it_o into_o the_o primitive_a church_n about_o four_o hundred_o year_n after_o christ._n the_o three_o that_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o sundry_a abuse_n spring_v from_o this_o wicked_a custom_n nourish_v and_o maintain_v yet_o unto_o this_o present_a in_o the_o idolater_n synagogue_n aught_o to_o move_v and_o stir_v up_o the_o true_a worshipper_n of_o god_n whole_o to_o banish_v it_o from_o out_o of_o the_o christian_n church_n touch_v the_o first_o point_n of_o my_o admonition_n sure_o we_o find_v in_o the_o bible_n part_n that_o the_o holy_a patriarch_n and_o their_o child_n have_v bury_v honourable_o their_o dead_a according_a to_o the_o ordinance_n of_o the_o lord_n 19_o thou_o be_v dust_n &_o to_o dust_n shall_v thou_o return_v but_o we_o read_v not_o in_o any_o place_n of_o it_o that_o they_o have_v tear_v their_o body_n and_o transport_v they_o by_o piecemeal_o after_o their_o decease_n place_v their_o bone_n in_o sundry_a place_n show_v their_o garment_n to_o the_o vulgar_a people_n with_o command_n to_o worship_v they_o and_o promise_v that_o in_o call_v upon_o they_o they_o shall_v be_v hear_v neither_o read_v we_o also_o in_o it_o that_o god_n have_v command_v we_o by_o his_o ancient_a prophet_n to_o go_v on_o pilgrimage_n to_o those_o part_n where_o their_o inheritor_n have_v carry_v they_o to_o offer_v up_o there_o unto_o they_o burn_v taper_n and_o holy_a candle_n to_o touch_v salute_v &_o kiss_v their_o bone_n with_o great_a devotion_n much_o less_o read_v we_o in_o it_o that_o god_n have_v prescribe_v they_o to_o solennize_v the_o memory_n of_o their_o relic_n by_o certain_a convocation_n of_o the_o people_n &_o publication_n of_o solemn_a fe_v nor_o yet_o to_o load_v the_o church_n &_o altar_n with_o they_o nor_o to_o carry_v they_o upon_o their_o neck_n &_o shoulder_n nor_o to_o walk_v up_o &_o down_o with_o they_o in_o procession_n to_o the_o intent_n to_o move_v every_o one_o to_o reverence_v they_o with_o confidence_n to_o obtain_v succour_n from_o god_n and_o his_o saint_n by_o worship_v they_o and_o albeit_o that_o the_o patriarch_n jacob_n and_o joseph_n his_o son_n ground_v themselves_o upon_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n promise_n that_o he_o will_v give_v for_o a_o inheritance_n to_o their_o posterity_n the_o land_n of_o canaan_n enjoin_v their_o child_n to_o transport_v they_o forth_o of_o egypt_n when_o the_o hour_n of_o their_o deliverance_n shall_v come_v into_o the_o country_n which_o god_n have_v promise_v they_o and_o that_o moses_n take_v their_o bone_n along_o with_o he_o when_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n come_v forth_o of_o egypt_n notwithstanding_o he_o never_o show_v they_o unto_o the_o people_n of_o god_n in_o his_o great_a distress_n either_o in_o his_o passage_n through_o the_o red_a sea_n or_o in_o the_o wilderness_n much_o less_o do_v he_o lift_v they_o up_o into_o the_o air_n and_o set_v they_o upon_o a_o perch_n as_o he_o do_v the_o brazen_a serpent_n or_o ordain_v that_o any_o shall_v behold_v they_o with_o stead_n fast_o assurance_n that_o every_o of_o they_o shall_v be_v deliver_v from_o their_o evil_n by_o contemplate_v they_o but_o contrary_a wise_a he_o keep_v they_o secret_a &_o close_o in_o their_o coffin_n and_o the_o elder_n of_o the_o people_n that_o survive_v moses_n and_o

we_o will_v refute_v more_o particular_o brag_v of_o the_o antiquity_n of_o this_o tradition_n with_o false_a bravado_n since_o god_n who_o be_v the_o ancient_a of_o day_n have_v never_o teach_v it_o
