god_n upon_o the_o same_o ground_n i_o say_v they_o who_o believe_v the_o sun_n to_o be_v god_n and_o worship_n he_o on_o that_o account_n will_v be_v excuse_v from_o idolatry_n too_o nay_o the_o grosser_n their_o idolatry_n be_v the_o more_o excusable_a it_o will_v be_v as_o that_o of_o those_o who_o suppose_v their_o image_n to_o be_v god_n and_o upon_o this_o ground_n their_o worship_n be_v more_o lawful_a than_o of_o those_o who_o suppose_v they_o not_o to_o be_v so_o to_o this_o he_o answer_v two_o way_n 1._o that_o they_o do_v not_o bare_o suppose_v that_o the_o substance_n of_o bread_n be_v change_v into_o christ_n body_n and_o that_o he_o be_v real_o present_a under_o the_o form_n of_o bread_n but_o that_o they_o know_v and_o believe_v this_o upon_o the_o same_o ground_n and_o motive_n upon_o which_o they_o believe_v that_o christ_n be_v god_n and_o consequent_o to_o be_v adore_v and_o further_o add_v that_o the_o same_o argument_n will_v hold_v against_o the_o adoration_n of_o christ_n as_o god_n as_o against_o the_o adoration_n of_o he_o in_o the_o eucharist_n since_o they_o have_v a_o like_a divine_a revelation_n for_o his_o real_a presence_n under_o the_o sacramental_a sign_n as_o for_o his_o be_v true_a god_n and_o man_n 2._o suppose_v they_o be_v mistake_v yet_o it_o will_v not_o follow_v they_o be_v idolater_n which_o he_o prove_v from_o dr._n tailor_n word_n but_o notwithstanding_o these_o appearance_n of_o answer_v that_o my_o argument_n still_o stand_v good_a will_v be_v evident_a by_o prove_v these_o thing_n 1._o that_o suppose_v there_o be_v the_o same_o revelation_n of_o christ_n divinity_n and_o of_o his_o presence_n in_o the_o eucharist_n by_o transubstantiation_n yet_o there_o can_v not_o be_v the_o same_o reason_n for_o the_o adoration_n of_o the_o host_n as_o for_o worship_v christ_n himself_o 2._o that_o there_o be_v not_o the_o same_o motive_n and_o ground_n to_o believe_v that_o doctrine_n of_o transubstantiatim_o that_o there_o be_v to_o believe_v that_o christ_n be_v god_n 3._o that_o suppose_v they_o be_v mistake_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o transubstantiation_n this_o do_v not_o excuse_v they_o from_o idolatry_n 4._o that_o the_o same_o reason_n which_o will_v excuse_v they_o will_v excuse_v the_o most_o gross_a idolater_n in_o the_o world_n §_o ●_o that_o suppose_v there_o be_v the_o same_o divine_a revelation_n of_o transubstantiation_n and_o of_o christ_n divinity_n yet_o there_o can_v not_o be_v the_o same_o reason_n for_o adoration_n of_o the_o host_n as_o of_o christ_n himself_o 1._o because_o there_o be_v a_o plain_a command_n in_o scripture_n for_o one_o and_o there_o be_v nothing_o like_o it_o for_o the_o other_o all_o the_o angel_n be_v command_v to_o worship_n

the_o element_n suppose_v he_o present_v there_o if_o it_o be_v say_v the_o general_a command_n do_v extend_v to_o he_o wherever_o he_o be_v present_a it_o be_v
ought_v not_o only_o perform_v the_o office_n of_o religion_n out_o of_o obedience_n to_o his_o divine_a command_n but_o with_o a_o due_a veneration_n of_o his_o majesty_n and_o power_n with_o thankfulness_n for_o his_o infinite_a goodness_n and_o with_o trust_n in_o his_o promise_n and_o subjection_n of_o our_o soul_n to_o his_o supreme_a authority_n about_o these_o thing_n which_o be_v the_o main_a part_n of_o divine_a and_o spiritual_a worship_n we_o have_v no_o quarrel_n nor_o do_v we_o find_v fault_n with_o any_o for_o give_v too_o much_o to_o christ_n in_o this_o manner_n but_o rather_o for_o place_v too_o much_o in_o the_o bare_a external_a act_n of_o adoration_n which_o may_v be_v perform_v with_o all_o external_a pomp_n and_o show_n where_o there_o be_v no_o inward_a reverence_n nor_o sincere_a devotion_n and_o yet_o 4._o it_o be_v not_o concern_v external_a reverence_n to_o be_v show_v in_o the_o time_n of_o receive_v the_o eucharist_n for_o that_o our_o church_n not_o only_o allow_v but_o enjoin_v and_o that_o not_o bare_o for_o the_o avoid_v such_o profanation_n and_o disorder_n in_o the_o holy_a communion_n as_o may_v otherwise_o ensue_v communion_n but_o for_o a_o signification_n of_o our_o humble_a and_o grateful_a acknowledgement_n of_o the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n therein_o give_v to_o all_o worthy_a receiver_n but_o it_o be_v withal_o declare_v that_o thereby_o no_o adoration_n be_v intend_v or_o ought_v to_o be_v do_v either_o unto_o the_o sacramental_a bread_n and_o wine_n there_o bodily_a receive_v or_o unto_o any_o corporal_a presence_n of_o christ_n natural_a flesh_n and_o blood_n as_o i_o have_v already_o recite_v it_o but_o the_o controversy_n concern_v the_o adoration_n of_o the_o host_n lie_v in_o these_o two_o thing_n 1._o whether_o proper_a divine_a worship_n in_o the_o time_n of_o receive_v the_o eucharist_n may_v be_v give_v to_o the_o element_n on_o the_o account_n of_o a_o corporal_a presence_n of_o christ_n under_o they_o 2._o whether_o out_o of_o the_o time_n of_o receive_v the_o same_o adoration_n ought_v to_o be_v give_v to_o it_o when_o it_o be_v elevate_v or_o carry_v in_o procession_n which_o we_o will_v give_v to_o the_o very_a person_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o this_o be_v the_o true_a state_n of_o the_o controversy_n i_o appeal_v to_o the_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n in_o this_o point_n for_o it_o be_v express_o determine_v by_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n 5._o that_o there_o be_v no_o manner_n of_o doubt_n leave_v but_o that_o all_o christian_n ought_v to_o give_v the_o same_o worship_n to_o this_o holy_a sacrament_n which_o they_o give_v to_o god_n himself_o for_o it_o be_v not_o therefore_o less_o to_o be_v worship_v because_o it_o be_v institute_v by_o christ_n our_o lord_n that_o it_o may_v be_v take_v by_o which_o word_n the_o true_a state_n of_o the_o controversy_n be_v make_v evident_a which_o be_v not_o about_o the_o reverence_n due_a only_o to_o christ_n suppose_v to_o be_v corporal_o present_a there_o but_o the_o adoration_n due_a to_o the_o sacrament_n upon_o that_o account_n and_o by_o the_o sacrament_n the_o council_n must_v understand_v the_o element_n or_o accident_n or_o whatever_o name_n they_o call_v they_o by_o as_o the_o immediate_a term_n of_o that_o divine_a worship_n or_o else_o the_o latter_a word_n signify_v nothing_o at_o all_o for_o what_o be_v that_o which_o be_v institute_v by_o our_o lord_n as_o a_o sacrament_n be_v it_o not_o the_o external_a and_o visible_a sign_n or_o element_n why_o do_v they_o urge_v that_o the_o sacrament_n ought_v not_o the_o less_o to_o be_v adore_v because_o it_o be_v to_o be_v take_v but_o to_o take_v off_o the_o common_a objection_n that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o give_v divine_a worship_n to_o that_o which_o we_o eat_v and_o what_o can_v this_o have_v respect_n to_o but_o the_o element_n but_o this_o be_v not_o deny_v that_o i_o know_v of_o by_o any_o who_o understand_v either_o the_o doctrine_n or_o practice_n of_o that_o church_n although_o to_o answer_v our_o argument_n they_o will_v seem_v to_o direct_v their_o worship_n only_o to_o

1._o that_o either_o the_o object_n be_v such_o in_o itself_o which_o deserve_v and_o require_v such_o worship_n from_o we_o as_o in_o the_o divine_a nature_n of_o christ_n or_o 2._o that_o if_o of_o
