13._o sess_n 13._o but_o to_o come_v close_o the_o romish_a society_n we_o charge_v it_o with_o idolatry_n and_o superstition_n it_o be_v a_o religion_n bloody_a damnable_a traitorous_a blind_a and_o blasphemous_a and_o madam_n i_o go_v upon_o sure_a ground_n for_o i_o well_o know_v their_o doctrine_n have_v read_v they_o in_o their_o chief_a author_n and_o by_o way_n of_o discourse_n and_o

come_v to_o prove_v the_o charge_n first_o their_o religion_n be_v idolatrous_a because_o it_o give_v the_o creature_n the_o dead_a and_o image_n the_o honour_n due_a to_o god_n alone_o the_o image_n and_o wafer-god_n of_o papist_n be_v dumb_a idol_n as_o well_o as_o those_o of_o the_o heathen_n their_o distinction_n of_o latreia_fw-la and_o douleia_fw-la be_v idle_a and_o frivolous_a for_o in_o

〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d but_o these_o thing_n i_o must_v not_o trouble_v you_o with_o now_o to_o pray_v to_o saint_n to_o the_o dead_a to_o adore_v the_o wafer_n to_o worship_n image_n be_v not_o all_o this_o to_o give_v the_o creature_n the_o worship_n due_a to_o god_n alone_o and_o be_v it_o not_o to_o pay_v relic_n divine_a worship_n as_o to_o fall_v down_o kneel_v before_o and_o kiss_v they_o to_o go_v in_o pilgrimage_n to_o their_o shrine_n and_o sepulcher_n and_o to_o expect_v help_n from_o they_o second_o it_o be_v a_o superstitious_a religion_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o innumerable_a vain_a

of_o their_o belief_n and_o we_o shall_v find_v whole_a almanac_n full_a of_o saint_n of_o their_o own_o make_n i_o dare_v say_v of_o some_o who_o never_o be_v in_o the_o world_n and_o of_o other_o who_o perhaps_o be_v now_o torment_v in_o hell_n they_o have_v many_o more_o saint_n than_o there_o be_v day_n in_o the_o year_n to_o these_o they_o pay_v the_o same_o ceremony_n in_o the_o selfsame_a

believe_v though_o he_o know_v not_o what_o the_o church_n do_v believe_v six_o it_o be_v a_o treacherous_a religion_n for_o they_o teach_v that_o the_o pope_n may_v depose_v king_n and_o lawful_o absolve_v subject_n from_o their_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n last_o we_o charge_v it_o to_o be_v blasphemous_a because_o the_o peculiar_a excellency_n of_o divine_a majesty_n and_o the_o prerogative_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n it_o ascribe_v to_o the_o virgin_n mary_n who_o psalter_n by_o bonaventura_n do_v contain_v abundance_n of_o blasphemy_n for_o all_o the_o glorious_a thing_n in_o

they_o give_v not_o only_o to_o the_o virgin_n but_o also_o to_o multiply_v their_o idolatry_n to_o other_o creature_n both_o dead_a and_o alive_a as_o to_o their_o pope_n to_o who_o and_o to_o their_o priest_n they_o attribute_v a_o power_n to_o forgive_v sin_n which_o be_v a_o downright_a blasphemy_n for_o who_o can_v forgive_v sin_n but_o god_n alone_o mark_v 2.7_o now_o i_o come_v to_o
