perpetual_a prohibition_n thou_o shall_v not_o bow_v down_o to_o any_o grave_a image_n so_o it_o be_v a_o perpetual_a obligation_n thou_o shall_v bow_v down_o to_o the_o true_a god_n for_o so_o long_o as_o corporal_a adoration_n of_o image_n remain_v forbid_v so_o long_o corporal_a adoration_n of_o the_o true_a god_n be_v a_o part_n of_o divine_a worship_n and_o so_o remain_v our_o duty_n and_o i_o

forbid_v by_o it_o will_v become_v lawful_a and_o so_o we_o may_v worship_v image_n they_o can_v possible_o wind_v off_o this_o by_o say_v they_o do_v it_o sufficient_o in_o kneel_v to_o he_o in_o prayer_n for_o this_o be_v but_o a_o part_n of_o corporal_a adoration_n but_o to_o come_v so_o far_o to_o they_o shall_v they_o answer_v thus_o they_o must_v allow_v kneel_v to_o be_v a_o duty_n and_o if_o so_o why_o i_o wonder_v shall_v it_o be_v a_o duty_n in_o their_o private_a family_n and_o none_o in_o the_o public_a congregation_n where_o their_o practice_n show_v that_o they_o think_v it_o enough_o forsooth_o to_o sit_v upon_o their_o tail_n with_o their_o hat_n it_o may_v be_v half_a on_o their_o head_n we_o read_v of_o such_o manner_n of_o adoration_n before_o there_o be_v any_o law_n in_o the_o world_n beside_o that_o of_o nature_n and_o special_a revelation_n for_o abraham_n bow_v himself_o before_o god_n and_o the_o gentile_n in_o all_o part_n of_o the_o world_n do_v the_o same_o to_o those_o thing_n which_o they_o own_a as_o god_n which_o show_v that_o this_o be_v natural_a and_o consequent_o perpetual_o oblige_v for_o as_o reason_n and_o conscience_n tell_v we_o that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n so_o they_o oblige_v we_o to_o worship_v that_o god_n with_o all_o reverence_n and_o adoration_n imaginable_a and_o as_o many_o author_n build_v a_o argument_n upon_o the_o former_a to_o prove_v the_o existence_n of_o a_o deity_n so_o we_o may_v build_v as_o strong_a a_o argument_n on_o the_o latter_a to_o prove_v corporal_a adoration_n for_o the_o law_n of_o

of_o the_o angel_n verse_n 10._o they_o be_v present_a in_o place_n and_o time_n of_o divine_a worship_n we_o ought_v to_o behave_v ourselves_o reverent_o and_o as_o they_o be_v there_o all_o the_o

the_o sing_a psalm_n which_o be_v almost_o spoil_v in_o hopkin_n poetry_n or_o as_o one_o speak_v in_o meeter_n and_o good_a meaning_n but_o be_v unwilling_a to_o be_v uncover_v at_o the_o read_n

reverence_n and_o corporal_a adoration_n for_o it_o be_v impossible_a there_o shall_v be_v too_o much_o of_o decency_n reverence_n and_o adoration_n where_o god_n be_v present_a by_o his_o angel_n as_o jacob_n have_v see_v they_o ascend_v and_o descend_v in_o a_o vision_n say_v when_o he_o wake_v how_o dreadful_a be_v this_o place_n it_o be_v no_o other_o than_o the_o house_n of_o god_n so_o methinks_v their_o presence_n in_o such_o place_n shall_v awe_v we_o into_o the_o great_a of_o internal_a devotion_n and_o external_a reverence_n too_o for_o how_o dreadful_a be_v such_o place_n because_o of_o the_o angel_n it_o be_v very_o strong_o hold_v by_o some_o the_o forequote_v author_n in_o particular_a that_o some_o or_o other_o of_o the_o angel_n be_v constant_o in_o consecrate_a place_n and_o therefore_o when_o ever_o we_o enter_v into_o or_o pass_v through_o those_o place_n we_o ought_v to_o show_v something_o of_o reverence_n whether_o it_o be_v at_o time_n of_o service_n or_o no_o and_o that_o upon_o the_o same_o reason_n because_o of_o the_o angel_n suppose_v we_o can_v undoubted_o prove_v this_o so_o yet_o i_o be_o confident_a we_o can_v bring_v far_o better_a
