they_o become_v act_n of_o external_a adoration_n which_o the_o common_a notion_n of_o mankind_n ever_o since_o the_o world_n begin_v have_v determine_v to_o be_v part_n of_o religious_a worship_n and_o whence_o i_o pray_v shall_v such_o action_n take_v the_o particular_a denomination_n of_o religious_a but_o from_o what_o physical_a action_n receive_v any_o other_o appellation_n and_o that_o be_v either_o positive_a appropriation_n to_o such_o a_o use_n or_o from_o the_o circumstance_n of_o time_n place_n occasion_n object_n and_o the_o like_a as_o well_o as_o intention_n of_o he_o that_o do_v they_o thus_o for_o instance_n act_n of_o sacrifice_n and_o incense_n become_v act_n of_o religious_a worship_n because_o god_n appropriate_v they_o to_o his_o service_n thus_o the_o prostration_n which_o the_o devil_n require_v of_o our_o saviour_n be_v by_o he_o interpret_v religious_a worship_n because_o the_o occasion_n be_v argument_n enough_o that_o he_o can_v demand_v no_o
