M. Hardinge.

The woordes of that prouincial Councel be these: It is thought good, that paintinges be not in the Chruche:* 1.1 that what is woorshipped or Adored, it be not painted on Walles. This expresse prohi∣tion of paintinge, and that nought be painted in Churche Walles, that is woorshipped or Adored, maie seeme bothe to presuppose a former vse of suche paintinges, and also to allowe the other sorte of images. VVhether it doo or no,* 1.2 it forceth not greatly. The seuenth general Councell assembled at Nice against the Imagebreakers, hath not onely allowed the‡ 1.3 Deuoute vse of Images cōmonly vsed in the Churches of Christen people: but also condēned al those that throwe them downe, and maineteine y contrary opiniō. Now we are taught that a prouinciall Councell ought to geue place to a Generall.
