lay_v up_o the_o one_o than_o the_o other_o according_a to_o this_o construction_n only_o without_o more_o ado_n some_o of_o the_o aforesaid_a passage_n will_v be_v discharge_v of_o their_o difficulty_n as_o namely_o that_o of_o hosea_n i_o desire_v mercy_n and_o not_o sacrifice_n i_o more_o or_o rather_o than_o sacrifice_v as_o the_o follow_a word_n give_v we_o to_o understand_v which_o be_v and_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n more_o than_o burn_a offering_n and_o according_a as_o the_o same_o sense_n be_v elsewhere_o express_v as_o prov._n 21._o 3._o to_o do_v justice_n and_o judgement_n be_v more_o acceptable_a to_o the_o lord_n than_o sacrifice_n but_o all_o will_v not_o be_v thus_o salve_v wherefore_o i_o lie_v down_o this_o second_o proposition_n that_o antecedenter_n it_o be_v true_a that_o god_n command_v not_o sacrifice_v shall_v be_v offer_v unto_o he_o neither_o when_o the_o law_n be_v give_v nor_o before_o but_o

life_n with_o the_o body_n as_o well_o as_o the_o soul_n if_o we_o look_v that_o god_n shall_v one_o day_n glorify_v both_o 2._o that_o as_o the_o outward_a worship_n without_o the_o inward_a be_v dead_a so_o the_o inward_a without_o the_o outward_a be_v not_o complete_a even_o as_o the_o glorification_n of_o the_o soul_n separate_v from_o the_o body_n be_v not_o nor_o shall_v not_o be_v consummate_a till_o the_o body_n be_v again_o unite_v unto_o it_o 3._o that_o those_o who_o derogate_a so_o much_o from_o bodily_a worship_n in_o the_o service_n of_o the_o true_a god_n as_o kneel_v bowing_z and_o the_o like_a make_v by_o consequent_a idolatry_n a_o sin_n far_o less_o heinous_a in_o degree_n than_o it_o be_v for_o be_v not_o idolatry_n to_o communicate_v that_o honour_n with_o a_o creature_n which_o be_v due_a unto_o the_o creator_n alone_o by_o how_o much_o therefore_o the_o worship_n of_o gesture_n and_o posture_n be_v less_o due_a unto_o god_n when_o we_o do_v our_o homage_n unto_o he_o by_o so_o much_o be_v the_o sin_n the_o less_o heinous_a and_o grievous_a when_o the_o same_o be_v give_v unto_o a_o idol_n for_o i_o believe_v they_o will_v not_o deny_v but_o part_n of_o the_o sin_n of_o idolatry_n consist_v even_o in_o the_o outward_a worship_n give_v unto_o a_o idol_n as_o kneel_v bowing_z and_o fall_v down_o before_o it_o and_o the_o like_a 4._o last_o that_o although_o bodily_a worship_n be_v consider_v in_o itself_o be_v one_o of_o the_o minor_a a_o legis_fw-la of_o the_o lesser_a thing_n of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o honour_n do_v unto_o god_n thereby_o of_o no_o great_a value_n though_o not_o of_o none_o in_o his_o fight_n yet_o may_v a_o voluntary_a and_o presumptuous_a neglect_n even_o of_o so_o small_a a_o duty_n be_v a_o great_a and_o heinous_a sin_n because_o such_o a_o neglect_n proceed_v from_o a_o profane_a disposition_n and_o election_n of_o the_o heart_n for_o a_o sin_n be_v not_o always_o to_o be_v esteem_v according_a to_o the_o value_n of_o the_o duty_n omit_v but_o from_o the_o heart_n election_n in_o omit_v it_o non_fw-fr est_fw-fr bonum_fw-la per_fw-la se_fw-la say_v seneca_n munda_fw-la vestis_fw-la 93._o sed_fw-la
