H. T. hath no better shift to salve their credit (Manual page 319, 320.) then to set their own Schoolmen and General Council together by the ears. The second Council of Nice (that did most for Images) did openly renounce the adoring them with Divine honour, and Tharasius solemnly professed, Duntaxat in unum verum Deum latriam & fidem see refer & reponere [They did refer and repose faith and divine worship in the true God alone] But Aquinas sum. 3. q. 25. a. 3. & 4. maintaineth (as I before observed) that the Image of Christ, and the Cross and the sign of the Cross are to be worshipped with Divine worship.] And what saith H.
