praise_n of_o god_n with_o a_o vocal_a melody_n notwithstanding_o all_o those_o sweet_a rejoice_n they_o may_v have_v in_o the_o spirit_n at_o any_o time_n never_o sing_v at_o all_o and_o if_o sing_v be_v that_o which_o the_o great_a god_n look_v for_o from_o and_o enjoin_v upon_o his_o people_n and_o every_o one_o of_o they_o that_o then_o they_o lie_v short_a of_o their_o duty_n and_o want_v a_o ordinance_n moreover_o if_o it_o be_v our_o duty_n and_o that_o which_o belong_v to_o god_n it_o be_v to_o take_v away_o one_o great_a part_n of_o his_o glorious_a praise_n yea_o the_o high_a manner_n of_o performance_n of_o it_o we_o be_v capable_a of_o and_o so_o it_o be_v a_o rob_n of_o the_o holy_a god_n as_o well_o as_o it_o deprive_v their_o own_o soul_n and_o the_o soul_n of_o other_o of_o much_o sweet_a and_o heavenly_a joy_n and_o refreshment_n we_o may_v also_o infer_v that_o those_o who_o think_v they_o may_v be_v say_v to_o sing_v with_o he_o that_o sing_v when_o they_o approve_v of_o the_o matter_n of_o his_o song_n and_o be_v affect_v with_o it_o be_v mistake_v see_v there_o be_v no_o proper_a mental_a or_o heart-singing_a or_o join_v that_o way_n with_o other_o in_o sing_v as_o there_o be_v in_o the_o duty_n and_o ordinance_n of_o prayer_n for_o all_o may_v be_v say_v as_o well_o to_o preach_v who_o like_a and_o approve_v of_o what_o a_o preacher_n say_v as_o they_o may_v be_v all_o say_v to_o sing_v who_o sit_v and_o hear_v one_o man_n sing_v with_o delight_n when_o they_o themselves_o hold_v their_o peace_n and_o sing_v not_o chap._n two_o wherein_o it_o be_v
