2_o 10._o that_o at_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n every_o knee_n shall_v bow_v of_o thing_n in_o heaven_n thing_n in_o earth_n and_o thing_n under_o the_o earth_n nor_o that_o it_o can_v be_v by_o any_o strong_a and_o undeniable_a argument_n draw_v from_o they_o because_o they_o conceive_v that_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o mean_a or_o intend_v those_o word_n of_o the_o outward_a knee_n of_o the_o body_n see_v angel_n and_o devil_n have_v no_o bodily_a knee_n but_o his_o meaning_n be_v that_o all_o creature_n in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o under_o the_o earth_n shall_v acknowledge_v he_o to_o be_v their_o lord_n shall_v honour_n worship_v he_o obey_v he_o and_o give_v he_o the_o glory_n that_o be_v due_a unto_o he_o yet_o we_o can_v think_v that_o any_o reasonable_a understand_a man_n can_v judge_v it_o altogether_o unlawful_a either_o to_o uncover_v the_o head_n or_o bow_v the_o body_n at_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n to_o show_v the_o reverence_n that_o be_v due_a unto_o he_o so_o that_o the_o inward_a intention_n of_o the_o mind_n and_o devotion_n of_o the_o heart_n be_v join_v and_o go_v along_o with_o the_o outward_a gesture_n of_o the_o body_n but_o the_o

he_o not_o in_o their_o heart_n nor_o make_v any_o conscience_n to_o live_v up_o unto_o he_o in_o their_o life_n yet_o again_o we_o must_v consider_v that_o this_o be_v our_o fault_n the_o fault_n of_o man_n and_o their_o corruption_n not_o the_o fault_n of_o the_o ceremony_n and_o we_o may_v also_o conceive_v that_o it_o be_v the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o church_n when_o it_o see_v how_o dead_a dull_a and_o lumpish_a nay_o stupid_a common_a people_n be_v in_o divine_a service_n to_o appoint_v this_o ceremony_n to_o stir_v up_o people_n shake_v off_o their_o sluggishness_n raise_v up_o their_o devotion_n and_o quicken_v their_o attention_n to_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n read_v or_o preach_v lest_o they_o shall_v be_v overcome_v of_o drowsiness_n and_o so_o if_o right_o use_v it_o may_v be_v a_o good_a mean_n to_o help_v we_o to_o amend_v that_o fault_n and_o to_o quicken_v our_o attention_n but_o you_o will_v say_v why_o shall_v we_o give_v more_o honour_n to_o the_o son_n then_o to_o the_o father_n to_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n then_o to_o the_o god_n who_o be_v the_o father_n to_o this_o we_o may_v answer_v he_o that_o honour_v the_o
