and_o honour_n to_o god_n use_v by_o we_o towards_o he_o be_v accept_v of_o he_o and_o what_o be_v not_o and_o we_o say_v that_o whatsoever_o expression_n of_o reverence_n to_o god_n he_o have_v not_o require_v he_o will_v not_o accept_v as_o for_o the_o distinction_n between_o matter_n and_o manner_n of_o worship_n it_o be_v frivolous_a of_o essential_a and_o circumstantial_a part_n as_o time_n

which_o be_v the_o proper_a matter_n of_o worship_n be_v not_o so_o full_o express_v in_o the_o word_n shachah_n to_o bow_v down_o the_o body_n or_o worship_n as_o the_o expression_n or_o manner_n of_o reverence_v or_o manner_n of_o worship_n therefore_o to_o exclude_v the_o manner_n of_o worship_n from_o worship_n be_v ridiculous_a the_o matter_n of_o worship_n to_o love_n fear_v reverence_n pray_v to_o and_o praise_n god_n do_v not_o of_o so_o much_o necessity_n come_v under_o positive_a reveal_v institution_n as_o be_v reveal_v by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n as_o the_o heathen_a
