This Idolist, heapeth conclusion vpon conclusion, but hee groundeth them, either vpon no premises, or vpon such as are sandie. How doth it appeare, that an image of Christ figured by a Roman Painter, hath a dignity aboue other creatures? Are Roman Painters more excellent workemen than God him∣selfe? [ B] Hath a dead picture, and worme-eaten statue, greater dignitie, than the liuely images of Christ, to wit the Saints which are vpon earth, and 〈◊〉〈◊〉 in vertue a? How much more worthy to be beleeued, is the saying of Clementb? If you desire, truely to honour the image of God, let me open the truth to you, Rather yeeld honour and reuerence to man, formed after the image of God, than to empty and breathlesse figures.
