MART. 7. And what were the Pagans idols or their* 1.1 idolatrie? S. Paule telleth vs, saying: They changed the glo∣rie* 1.2 of the incorruptible God into the similitude of the image of a corruptible man, & of birdes and beasts, and creeping thinges, and they serued (or worshipped) the creature more than the creator. Doth he charge them for making the image of man or beast? Your selues haue hangings and clothes full of such paintings and embroderings of imagi∣rie. Wherewith then are they charged? with giuing the glorie of God to such creatures, which was to make them idols, and them selues idolaters.

FVLK. 7. That the Paganes changed the glory of God into the similitude of the Image of man, &c. it was the extremitie of their madnesse, but that they made Images of man or beaste, If you will not confesse▪ that Iupiter, Mars, &c. were men, and Isis a cowe or beast, yet remember that they made Images of their Emperours, and committed Idolatrie to them: otherwise to make Images out of religiō, was not the offence of Idolatrie in them, nor vs, that haue them in hangings, and paintings, and other lawfull Images.
