that_o a_o minister_n in_o divine_a service_n shall_v wear_v a_o white_a linen_n garment_n in_o baptism_n make_v the_o sign_n of_o a_o cross_n to_o these_o end_n and_o purpose_n that_o be_v express_v

and_o divine_a worship_n and_o be_v mystical_a shadow_n and_o type_n of_o religious_a doctrine_n ii_o that_o all_o religious_a ceremony_n be_v part_n of_o divine_a worship_n this_o neither_o shall_v need_v any_o proof_n if_o those_o that_o be_v adversary_n unto_o we_o in_o this_o cause_n do_v not_o too_o much_o presume_v of_o the_o weakness_n of_o our_o discourse_n and_o the_o strength_n of_o their_o own_o wit_n for_o there_o be_v a_o external_a divine_a worship_n which_o proper_o consist_v in_o the_o outward_a rite_n and_o ceremony_n of_o religion_n what_o ceremony_n can_v be_v call_v part_n thereof_o if_o such_o religious_a ceremony_n as_o these_o be_v not_o for_o if_o bow_v the_o knee_n etc._n etc._n in_o divine_a worship_n though_o it_o be_v use_v also_o in_o civil_a worship_n be_v a_o part_n of_o divine_a worship_n much_o more_o be_v those_o ceremony_n that_o be_v peculiar_o appropriate_v to_o divine_a service_n and_o worship_n and_o wherein_o part_n of_o the_o form_n thereof_o be_v make_v to_o consist_v but_o it_o may_v for_o further_o satisfy_v of_o man_n be_v thus_o prove_v all_o mere_a and_o immediate_a action_n of_o religion_n be_v part_n of_o divine_a worship_n all_o religious_a ceremony_n be_v mere_a and_o immediate_a action_n of_o religion_n ergo_fw-la they_o be_v part_n of_o divine_a worship_n further_o how_o can_v a_o man_n imagine_v that_o a_o mere_a religious_a ecclesiastical_a act_n do_v by_o a_o servant_n of_o god_n in_o the_o solemn_a service_n and_o worship_n of_o god_n by_o precise_a canon_n of_o the_o church_n shall_v be_v no_o part_n of_o divine_a worship_n since_o all_o the_o solemn_a rite_n and_o ceremony_n that_o be_v use_v in_o the_o solemn_a service_n of_o civil_a state_n especial_o such_o as_o be_v do_v in_o their_o presence_n have_v be_v ever_o repute_v part_n of_o civil_a honour_n and_o worship_n last_o consider_v that_o god_n in_o his_o divine_a worship_n do_v require_v the_o whole_a heart_n
