The second obiection.
The saints in heauen pray for vs, and therefore it is meete that we inuocate and call vpon them. For the angell saide; O Lord of hostes,* 1.1 how long wilt thou be vnmercifull to Ierusa∣lem, and to the cities of Iudah, with whom thou hast bin dis∣pleased now these threescore and ten yeeres?* 1.2 Baruch witnes∣seth that the dead pray for vs, when he saith; O Lord almigh∣tie, heare now the prayer of the dead Israelites, and of their children, which haue sinned before thee. Iudas Machabeus had a vision,* 1.3 in which he saw Onias holding vp his handes to∣ward heauen, and praying for the whole people of the Iewes. And saint Iohn saw 24. Elders fall downe before the lambe,* 1.4 hauing euery one of them harpes and golden vialles full of o∣dours which are the prayers of saints.
