the_o force_n and_o virtue_n of_o the_o scripture_n to_o enter_v therefore_o into_o a_o more_o exact_a and_o sound_a discussion_n of_o this_o point_n we_o must_v observe_v 3._o rule_n which_o serve_v to_o open_v this_o particular_a and_o sundry_a other_o in_o the_o sacred_a scripture_n 1._o whereas_o no_o point_n of_o religion_n can_v be_v demonstrate_v out_o of_o the_o scripture_n but_o as_o the_o scripture_n be_v take_v in_o the_o true_a proper_a and_o literal_a sense_n which_o the_o learn_a in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v also_o confess_v we_o must_v acknowledge_v that_o the_o

not_o always_o that_o which_o the_o word_n do_v bear_v immediate_o in_o their_o grammatical_a signification_n but_o that_o the_o word_n of_o the_o scripture_n be_v sometime_o proper_a as_o christ_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n sometime_o improper_a or_o methaphoricall_a as_o christ_n be_v a_o vine_n a_o dore._n now_o if_o the_o word_n be_v improper_a and_o metaphorical_a as_o we_o shall_v see_v

for_o then_o great_a absurdity_n will_v follow_v but_o mediate_o that_o be_v to_o say_v as_o they_o be_v reduce_v unto_o proper_a word_n as_o here_o bow_v the_o knee_n at_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n be_v a_o improper_a or_o methaphoricall_a speech_n and_o be_v reduce_v to_o this_o proper_a speech_n viz._n a_o subjection_n of_o the_o creature_n to_o the_o son_n of_o god_n which_o be_v the_o true_a

that_o the_o true_a proper_a &_o literal_a sense_n of_o the_o scripture_n do_v according_a to_o the_o intention_n of_o s._n paul_n and_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n itself_o represent_v unto_o our_o understanding_n not_o a_o outward_a ceremony_n of_o bow_v the_o knee_n of_o the_o body_n but_o a_o real_a subject_n on_o of_o all_o the_o creature_n in_o heaven_n earth_n and_o hell_n unto_o the_o son_n of_o god_n even_o as_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o man_n also_o now_o exalt_v unto_o glory_n whereas_o therefore_o s._n paul_n say_v god_n
