without_o and_o the_o law_n of_o conscience_n within_o command_v we_o to_o make_v choice_n of_o such_o time_n when_o we_o may_v serve_v and_o worship_n god_n after_o the_o best_a and_o holy_a manner_n

the_o name_n of_o jesus_n it_o tend_v to_o magnify_v one_o name_n of_o christ_n with_o the_o disparagement_n of_o all_o ergo._n the_o major_n i_o take_v for_o clear_a and_o grant_v because_o

this_o i_o answer_v resp_n 1._o that_o it_o manifest_o argue_v a_o comparlative_a contempt_n when_o there_o be_v honour_n and_o reverence_n settle_v upon_o one_o by_o a_o law_n and_o man_n set_v at_o

be_v that_o the_o case_n be_v altogether_o unlike_a because_o first_o though_o it_o be_v lawful_a at_o any_o time_n to_o direct_v a_o man_n prayer_n to_o any_o one_o of_o the_o three_o person_n but_o

the_o three_o person_n be_v full_o acknowledge_v but_o in_o the_o command_n and_o tender_v of_o this_o knee-worship_n a_o man_n be_v only_o send_v with_o it_o to_o the_o son_n neither_o will_v it_o
