The Pope and his adherents say that he is like a stock and a stone / and causeth men to make images of him / 1though God commanded contrary saying. Thou shalt make no graven image / neither any manner of similitude of those things which are in heaven above or on the earth beneath. Neither of tho things which are in the water / •• under the earth / neither shalt thou honour or worship them.2 Good christen be ware of these idols as saint Johan counselleth the / truly I think it be one of the greatest causes of this excecation which God hath sent in to the world for sin.
