to_o this_o practice_n no_o man_n i_o think_v will_v question_v who_o consider_v that_o all_o other_o account_v give_v of_o this_o expression_n seem_v very_o foreign_a and_o impertinent_a to_o the_o

so_o that_o when_o solomon_n say_v take_v heed_n to_o thy_o foot_n he_o do_v in_o effect_n say_v do_v not_o come_v rude_o into_o the_o house_n of_o god_n nor_o behave_v thyself_o careless_o when_o thou_o be_v there_o but_o address_v thyself_o to_o god_n with_o that_o reverence_n and_o godly_a fear_n which_o become_v so_o glorious_a and_o dreadful_a a_o majesty_n before_o i_o proceed_v that_o my_o design_n may_v be_v clear_o understand_v i_o shall_v premise_v two_o thing_n 1._o that_o which_o i_o intend_v to_o speak_v to_o at_o present_a be_v not_o that_o reverence_n which_o be_v due_a to_o the_o house_n by_o which_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v distinguish_v from_o all_o other_o house_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o its_o peculiar_a relation_n to_o god_n but_o that_o which_o we_o be_v to_o give_v to_o god_n when_o we_o present_v ourselves_o there_o to_o worship_v he_o in_o like_a manner_n as_o all_o those_o particular_a duty_n afterward_o mention_v relate_v to_o the_o several_a part_n of_o worship_n there_o to_o be_v perform_v be_v such_o as_o immediate_o respect_v god_n himself_o 2._o though_o bodily_a reverence_n be_v the_o only_a thing_n express_v in_o the_o text_n yet_o the_o reverence_n of_o the_o soul_n of_o which_o that_o of_o the_o body_n be_v but_o a_o sign_n be_v suppose_v and_o imply_v since_o all_o outward_a expression_n of_o devotion_n how_o solemn_a and_o pompous_a soever_o which_o do_v not_o arise_v from_o within_o be_v no_o better_o than_o hypocrisy_n and_o by_o consequence_n be_v abhor_v by_o god_n who_o see_v in_o secret_a so_o that_o the_o reverence_n here_o require_v be_v both_o that_o of_o the_o inward_a and_o that_o of_o the_o outward_a man._n that_o of_o the_o inward_a man_n consist_v in_o such_o thought_n and_o affection_n as_o be_v in_o some_o sort_n become_v the_o god_n we_o worship_v in_o awful_a apprehension_n of_o his_o glorious_a majesty_n of_o his_o unspotted_a purity_n of_o his_o unsearchable_a wisdom_n of_o his_o almighty_a power_n of_o his_o presence_n with_o we_o and_o observant_a eye_n over_o we_o and_o in_o such_o a_o humble_a sense_n of_o our_o own_o unworthiness_n to_o be_v admit_v into_o his_o presence_n as_o become_v we_o not_o only_o as_o we_o be_v his_o creature_n but_o much_o more_o as_o we_o be_v sinner_n that_o of_o the_o outward_a man_n consist_v in_o such_o a_o deportment_n of_o the_o body_n as_o be_v a_o fit_a expression_n of_o the_o inward_a reverence_n of_o the_o soul_n as_o in_o stand_v bowing_z kneeling_z lift_v up_o the_o eye_n and_o hand_n towards_o heaven_n in_o diligent_a attendance_n to_o his_o word_n read_v and_o preach_v and_o in_o other_o such_o visible_a sign_n as_o open_o declare_v that_o we_o esteem_v he_o worthy_a to_o receive_v all_o blessing_n and_o honour_n and_o glory_n and_o power_n both_o these_o be_v our_o bind_a duty_n especial_o the_o former_a though_o the_o latter_a be_v that_o which_o my_o text_n have_v more_o immediate_a respect_n
