A51289 A brief reply to a late answer to Dr. Henry More his Antidote against idolatry Shewing that there is nothing in the said answer that does any ways weaken his proofs of idolatry against the Church of Rome, and therefore all are bound to take heed how they enter into, or continue in the communion of that church as they tender their own salvation. More, Henry, 1614-1687. 1672 (1672) Wing M2645; ESTC R217965 188,285 386

of_o their_o picture_n moreover_o his_o supposal_n be_v false_a and_o contrary_a to_o his_o own_o assertion_n before_o when_o he_o assert_n that_o the_o image_n of_o cherubim_n or_o angel_n be_v

so_o that_o though_o the_o figure_n be_v 〈◊〉_d the_o form_n which_o be_v the_o life_n of_o the_o figure_n will_v be_v quite_o lose_v and_o be_v nothing_o near_o so_o like_o the_o separate_a soul_n
