of_o the_o natural_a or_o moral_a sense_n of_o worship_v god_n in_o spirit_n i_o have_v speak_v hitherto_o and_o show_v both_o the_o ground_n and_o importance_n of_o it_o let_v we_o now_o consider_v

plain_o show_v his_o meaning_n to_o be_v that_o to_o worship_n god_n in_o spirit_n and_o in_o truth_n be_v not_o to_o worship_v he_o with_o sacrifice_n and_o other_o such_o figure_n but_o in_o

it_o will_v follow_v not_o only_o that_o we_o be_v to_o worship_n god_n without_o those_o legal_a rite_n wherewith_o it_o be_v before_o sufficient_o clog_v but_o also_o that_o we_o be_v not_o to_o
