on_o the_o other_o side_n tend_v to_o the_o advauncement_n of_o godliness_n and_o piety_n that_o be_v if_o they_o be_v profitable_a as_o well_o for_o the_o exciting_a conserve_n promove_v of_o the_o

11._o the_o apostle_n ordain_v that_o woman_n shall_v pray_v in_o the_o church_n cover_v and_o man_n bareheaded_a first_o of_o all_o this_o be_v not_o repugnant_a to_o holy_a scripture_n second_o the_o end_n of_o this_o constitution_n be_v honesty_n the_o preservation_n of_o decency_n and_o the_o edification_n of_o the_o church_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o the_o outward_a worship_n may_v be_v perform_v with_o great_a honesty_n and_o comeliness_n again_o another_o end_n of_o that_o ceremony_n be_v that_o thereby_o every_o one_o may_v be_v admonish_v and_o put_v in_o mind_n of_o his_o own_o place_n and_o duty_n namely_o that_o the_o man_n be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o woman_n and_o the_o woman_n be_v put_v in_o mind_n of_o her_o subjection_n to_o the_o man_n which_o thing_n be_v profitable_a to_o the_o internal_a worship_n 32_o in_o the_o same_o place_n the_o apostle_n set_v down_o a_o order_n for_o the_o due_a celebration_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n that_o all_o of_o they_o shall_v meet_v and_o assemble_v together_o and_o tarry_v one_o for_o another_o first_o he_o show_v that_o this_o aught_o to_o be_v do_v out_o of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o be_v out_o of_o the_o

worship_n namely_o to_o faith_n charity_n and_o the_o spiritual_a union_n of_o the_o mind_n or_o soul_n 33_o 1._o cor._n 14._o he_o ordain_v how_o tongue_n may_v be_v use_v in_o the_o church_n to_o

that_fw-mi both_o these_o argue_v a_o man_n to_o be_v either_o of_o very_o weak_a judgement_n or_o altogether_o irreligious_a such_o as_o christian_n can_v be_v without_o great_a offence_n and_o
