imperfect_a and_o finite_a but_o when_o we_o appear_v before_o god_n and_o do_v reverence_n to_o he_o we_o must_v do_v it_o with_o apprehension_n of_o eminency_n and_o that_o such_o as_o be_v

and_o carry_v ourselves_o towards_o he_o as_o a_o creature_n now_o to_o give_v to_o the_o creature_n the_o prerogative_n of_o god_n and_o to_o charge_n upon_o god_n the_o defect_n of_o the_o

you_o that_o which_o i_o take_v to_o be_v the_o true_a and_o genuine_a sense_n of_o it_o 1._o some_o think_v that_o by_o spirit_n in_o this_o place_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v the_o three_o person_n

truth_n be_v to_o worship_n in_o spirit_n and_o so_o they_o will_v have_v the_o one_o to_o be_v a_o exposition_n of_o the_o other_o and_o they_o say_v to_o worship_v he_o in_o spirit_n and_o in_o
