of_o the_o pagan_a theology_n first_o that_o there_o be_v one_o self-originated_n deity_n who_o be_v the_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d or_o maker_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n second_o that_o there_o be_v beside_o he_o other_o god_n also_o to_o be_v religious_o worship_v that_o be_v intellectual_a being_n superior_a to_o man_n which_o be_v notwithstanding_o all_o make_v or_o create_v by_o that_o one_o to_o the_o supreme_a god_n they_o give_v the_o high_a worship_n but_o to_o those_o subordinate_a deity_n they_o give_v a_o lesser_a or_o inferior_a kind_n of_o religious_a worship_n that_o be_v they_o adore_v and_o worship_v the_o supreme_a god_n as_o the_o first_o cause_n and_o original_a of_o all_o thing_n but_o their_o inferior_a deity_n as_o mediator_n and_o intercessor_n for_o they_o with_o the_o supreme_a numen_fw-la and_o where_o i_o pray_v lie_v the_o difference_n now_o between_o the_o papist_n and_o the_o pagan_a save_v that_o the_o dii_fw-la medioxumi_fw-la of_o the_o heathen_n be_v change_v into_o saint_n and_o angel_n by_o the_o papist_n and_o if_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o pagan_n substitute_v these_o subordinate_a god_n in_o the_o room_n of_o the_o supreme_a god_n and_o worship_v they_o above_o or_o more_o than_o he_o i_o shall_v ready_o grant_v it_o and_o do_v likewise_o affirm_v the_o same_o of_o the_o papist_n who_o by_o give_v religious_a worship_n to_o saint_n and_o angel_n do_v real_o substitute_v they_o in_o the_o place_n of_o the_o true_a god_n and_o worship_v they_o above_o or_o more_o than_o he_o for_o so_o sir_n edwin_n sands_n tell_v

much_o the_o worshipper_n of_o the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n as_o of_o the_o woman_n his_o mother_n but_o that_o the_o pagan_n do_v so_o worship_v their_o inferior_a deity_n as_o whole_o to_o pass_v by_o and_o neglect_v the_o supreme_a i_o utter_o deny_v to_o the_o second_o i_o say_v that_o it_o be_v true_a the_o saint_n and_o martyr_n be_v worthy_a of_o some_o regard_n and_o veneration_n but_o not_o of_o religious_a worship_n which_o to_o give_v they_o be_v downright_a idolatry_n but_o the_o honour_n and_o reverence_n which_o we_o pay_v to_o the_o saint_n depart_v consist_v 1._o in_o make_v

we_o grace_n to_o follow_v their_o good_a example_n that_o with_o they_o we_o may_v be_v partaker_n of_o his_o heavenly_a kingdom_n and_o whereas_o it_o be_v say_v that_o it_o be_v ridiculous_a in_o the_o heathen_a to_o worship_v the_o star_n that_o have_v neither_o sense_n nor_o reason_n i_o find_v they_o utter_o disclaim_v this_o latter_a part_n forasmuch_o as_o they_o look_v upon_o all_o the_o

to_o be_v nothing_o but_o a_o dead_a and_o lifeless_a thing_n but_o as_o animate_v with_o some_o intellectual_a be_v for_o to_o deny_v the_o world_n animation_n and_o to_o be_v a_o atheist_n or_o to_o

god_n as_o his_o gift_n i_o reply_v that_o the_o same_o may_v be_v say_v of_o the_o subordinate_a god_n of_o the_o heathen_n who_o be_v altogether_o as_o omniscient_a as_o the_o romish_a saint_n nor_o

the_o pagan_n to_o redound_v to_o the_o supreme_a 7._o have_v now_o dispatch_v the_o first_o part_n wherein_o i_o affirm_v the_o pagan_a polytheism_n and_o idolatry_n to_o consist_v namely_o in_o worship_v many_o inferior_a create_a deity_n together_o with_o the_o supreme_a god_n and_o draw_v the_o parallel_n full_o and_o exact_o between_o this_o heathenish_a worship_n and_o that_o now_o practise_v in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n i_o shall_v with_o the_o same_o clearness_n and_o evidence_n demonstrate_v the_o second_o part_n viz._n that_o papist_n do_v egregious_o paganize_v in_o worship_v both_o the_o supreme_a god_n and_o their_o other_o inferior_a deity_n in_o image_n and_o statue_n and_o let_v not_o any_o man_n be_v mistake_v and_o think_v that_o because_o papist_n do_v not_o call_v angel_n and_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n depart_v god_n or_o inferior_a deity_n but_o saint_n that_o therefore_o the_o case_n be_v quite_o different_a between_o they_o and_o the_o pagan_n for_o by_o give_v religious_a worship_n to_o they_o they_o do_v for_o that_o very_a reason_n make_v they_o god_n whether_o they_o call_v they_o so_o or_o not_o for_o neither_o do_v the_o heathen_n believe_v their_o inferior_a deity_n to_o be_v so_o many_o self-existent_a and_o independent_a but_o create_v being_n make_v by_o the_o supreme_a god_n but_o by_o perform_v religious_a worship_n to_o they_o they_o make_v they_o god_n so_o far_o as_o any_o creature_n can_v be_v make_v a_o god_n and_o upon_o this_o account_n they_o be_v call_v god_n in_o scripture_n so_o that_o i_o can_v free_v the_o romish_a church_n from_o polytheism_n and_o idolatry_n any_o more_o than_o the_o pagan_a world_n who_o by_o all_o christian_a writer_n have_v be_v just_o brand_v with_o that_o heinous_a

however_o i_o shall_v offer_v something_o towards_o the_o proof_n of_o it_o and_o first_o that_o the_o heathen_n worship_v the_o true_a god_n the_o creator_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n in_o a_o
