That Images were set up in Churches, within six hundred years after Christ, it is certain, but not Specially either then, or sithens to the intent the people might worship them.1 The intent and purpose hath been far other, but right Godly, as shall be declared. Wherefore the imputing of this intent to the Catholic Church, is both false, and also slanderous. And because for the use of Images, these New Masters charge the Church with reproach of a new devise, breach of Gods commandment, and Idolatry: I will here show, First, the Antiquity of Images, and by whom they have been allowed. Secondly, to what intent, and purpose they serve. Thirdly, how they may be worshipped without offence.
