now_o if_o the_o angel_n be_v eternal_a then_o be_v they_o equal_a with_o god_n in_o selfe-being_a they_o may_v be_v call_v selfe-subsisting_a essence_n and_o so_o shall_v be_v equal_a with_o god_n stand_v in_o no_o more_o need_n of_o he_o then_o he_o of_o they_o owe_v no_o more_o service_n homage_n and_o praise_n to_o he_o than_o he_o owe_v to_o they_o and_o so_o they_o be_v god_n as_o well_o as_o he_o and_o then_o we_o shall_v have_v multitude_n of_o god_n not_o only_o one_o god_n and_o so_o shall_v not_o god_n be_v the_o first_o and_o best_a essence_n there_o be_v so_o many_o other_o
