Conversation of a Tea-table: why by the listening
to the chirping of birds or the murmuring of nature,
than to the melody of Instruments & of the human
voice.
X i. Burnet III.367
We are told by Bishop Burnet,X that when
the final abolition of the Popish superstitions was
in agitation, Queen Elizabeth was strongly inclined
to the retaining of Images in Churches &It was the judgment that ingenious
Princess which the comparison of the
behaviour of the people in Popish & Protestant
Churches justifies at this day, that the retaining
of those such embellishments would be a means of
drawing the people to frequent with more alacrity
those places of devotion. The rigid Protestants
who were her advisers by representing the
danger of leaving— to that temper
of superstition & Idolatry, which so many causes
at that time of day and cherishing among
the people, prevailed on her to depart from that
Wear
lending Assistance
There is no great cause
I suppose to fear, that
men should fall on worshipping a Ball of such
after they have been
kicking it about, or
Quoit, or a Longbow.
There is not a more
course of more corruption
