worship_v of_o a_o image_n can_v be_v amiss_o thus_o these_o our_o use_n of_o the_o cross_n and_o surplice_n be_v without_o superstition_n and_o the_o law_n intend_v a_o good_a end_n in_o they_o therefore_o their_o use_n be_v good_a thus_o saunders_n for_o his_o 5._o reason_n christian_n now_o must_v not_o be_v judge_v weak_a as_o be_v the_o jew_n but_o strong_a according_a to_o isaies_n pprophecy_n &_o full_a of_o knowledge_n thus_o these_o the_o people_n of_o england_n must_v not_o be_v judge_v either_o weak_a or_o ignorant_a as_o they_o be_v in_o time_n of_o popery_n to_o hurt_v themselves_o with_o these_o old_a popish_a ceremony_n thus_o saunders_n for_o his_o sixth_o reason_n though_o some_o of_o the_o people_n may_v be_v weak_a yet_o it_o be_v best_o to_o let_v image_n alone_o lest_o they_o seek_v to_o worse_a superstition_n thus_o these_o the_o people_n must_v be_v please_v with_o cross_n and_o surplice_n lest_o in_o discontent_n they_o wish_v for_o their_o old_a mumpsimus_fw-la altogether_o thus_o saunders_n for_o his_o 7._o reason_n because_o the_o people_n have_v not_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o jew_n it_o be_v fit_a they_o have_v before_o they_o the_o martyr_n image_n who_o do_v sacrifice_v their_o body_n thus_o these_o the_o people_n want_v their_o old_a crucifix_n and_o wont_a image_n to_o put_v they_o in_o mind_n of_o christ_n sacrifice_n on_o the_o cross_n therefore_o the_o cross_n must_v steed_n they_o thus_o saunders_n for_o his_o 8._o reason_n image_n be_v not_o give_v to_o the_o people_n for_o their_o weakness_n but_o for_o the_o exercise_n of_o their_o strength_n and_o not_o to_o have_v they_o be_v pusilanimitie_n thus_o these_o to_o fear_v hurt_v by_o the_o cross_n and_o surplice_n be_v pusilanimitie_n to_o remove_v they_o upon_o this_o fear_n a_o dishonour_n and_o to_o judge_n the_o people_n not_o of_o strength_n to_o bear_v they_o a_o great_a discredit_n to_o our_o church_n than_o it_o deserve_v thus_o last_o saunders_n for_o his_o nine_o reason_n the_o place_n of_o john_n 4._o which_o command_v spiritual_a worship_v be_v not_o against_o image_n because_o they_o increase_v spiritual_a devotion_n thus_o these_o the_o worship_v of_o god_n in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n not_o only_o not_o exclude_v but_o also_o require_v such_o outward_a help_n of_o inward_a devotion_n as_o be_v the_o cross_n and_o
