andrew_n but_o good_a george_n there_o be_v yet_o another_o bow_n in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n wherein_o i_o be_o not_o well_o satisfy_v and_o have_v be_v tell_v by_o some_o that_o it_o be_v

people_n glory_n in_o their_o loialty_n and_o obedience_n towards_o their_o king_n above_o other_o nation_n it_o be_v the_o custom_n as_o oft_o as_o they_o make_v mention_n of_o their_o king_n they_o

the_o name_n of_o jesus_n act_v 4._o 10._o so_o the_o great_a apostle_n to_o the_o philipian_o say_v express_o that_o at_o that_o name_n every_o knee_n shall_v bow_v both_o of_o thing_n in_o heaven_n

to_o express_v some_o other_o outward_a reverence_n at_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n be_v a_o catholic_a or_o universal_a custom_n among_o christian_n which_o ought_v to_o serve_v for_o a_o law_n to_o all_o we_o of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n if_o there_o be_v no_o cannon_n to_o enjoin_v the_o same_o and_o they_o deserve_v not_o the_o name_n of_o christian_n who_o be_v so_o perverse_a and_o
