64 great Goddess Diana, is in danger of being despised, whom all Asia & the world worshipeth, - and they cried out for the span of 2 hours great is Diana of the Ephesians, - what man is there that knoweth not, how that the city of the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great goddess Diana & of the image that fell down from Jupiter. Thus the ephesians & other pagan Idolaters, stupidly believed that images made by mens hands, were gods & were to be worshiped. Or if they were not so infatuated as to image that the marble or the wood were god, yet they looked upon them as the residence of the divinity & so paid divine honor to the image.
Thus our Saxon & gothic ancestors, were worshipers of false gods, or apprehended they were worship.g the true god, while they bowed down to images. They worshiped the Idol Woden, the god of battles on Wednesd.y from whom the name of that day of the week is derived & also the idol God Thor, the god of thunder, on Thursdays from whom the name is derived. This idol worship was paid to these Idols by them, at the time of X's com.g in to the World & continued for a considerable time after, as they were among the last Nations of europe, who were brought to the glorious light of the gospel & renounced the worship of false gods. But before the maraculous grace that accompanied the preach.g of the gospel, Satan & this gross idolatrous Worship, fell to the ground. But Satan's Idolatrous kingdom has been again revived, in the church of Rome, once a true chh of X, but now most corrupt in Idolatry.
