Againe these S. _Peter_ men (and as I haue warrant to terme them on this day _Salt Peter men_) erre from the true meaning of our text, because they doe not praise God _in sanctis eius_, in his saints: but dishonour God _in sanctis eorum_, in saints of their owne making, vsually praying vnto some who were no men, and to many who were not holy men. It is doubted by the two great lights in their glorious firmament, _Bellarmine_ and _Baronius_, whether there were euer any such man as S. _George_, or such a woman as S. _Catharine_. Cardinall _Bellarmine_ _lib. de beatitudine sanct. cap. vlt. Sec.. respondeo sanctorum_ doth acknowledge that they worship certaine saints whose stories are vncertaine, reputing the legend of S. _George_ apocryphall according to the censure of Pope [af]_Gelasius:_ and Cardinall _Baronius ecclesiast. annal. Tom. 2. ad an. 290._ according to the impression at Rome, fol. 650. as also _de Martyrologio Romano, cap. 2._ confesseth as much of _Quiriacus_ and _Iulitta_, declaring plainely that their acts are written either by fooles or heretikes, and in his annotations vpon the _Romane Martyrologie_ 23. Aprill, he taketh vp _Iacobus de Voragine_ for his leaden Legend of our English S. _George_, concluding in fine, that the picture of Saint _George_ fighting with a Dragon is _symbolicall_, and not _historicall_. If the Scripture be true [ag]_whatsoeuer is not of faith is sinne_: then assuredly these men (as [ah]_Paul_ speaks) _are damned of their owne selues_ in their owne conscience, who (notwithstanding all their doubts) pray still in their publike seruice, [ai]_Deus, qui nos beati Georgij martyris tui meritis & intercessione laetificas, Concede propitius, &c._ An Idoll as _Paul_ affirmes, 1. Cor. 8. 4. is nothing, _Ergo_, the Papists in worshipping S. _George_ which is nothing, commit (euen themselues being Iudges) abominable Idolatrie. [Sidenote af: _Can. sanct.
