In the 30. or last Section, a contradiction being sought for in vain, betwixt our conclusions, and our confessions and practises, the Replier thought it sufficient to dispatch all briefly, in a few questions, to which the Rejoinder answers; but so, as he bringeth little or nothing that requireth a new confutation.

The first question was about Temples, Bells, Tablecloths (objected by the Defendant) whether they have such Idolatry put upon them by Papists, as the Cross hath? The Rejoinder answereth 1. that if they have as much as the Surplice, that will serve the turn. It would indeed, in part; though nor in whole. But that cannot be proved. His second answer is, that such a Cross as ours is, was never abused at all in Popery. Which is a Metaphysical conceit, sufficiently before confuted. His third is, that Temples and Bells, were as well abused. But the question was of such Idolatry. His fourth is, that the white linen Altar cloth was as much abused as the Surplice.
