of_o vile_a man_n also_o the_o answer_n which_o they_o give_v to_o this_o have_v no_o weight_n in_o it_o they_o make_v use_v here_o of_o this_o rule_n praecepta_fw-la affirmativa_fw-la etc._n etc._n affirmative_a precept_n do_v always_o bind_v but_o not_o to_o all_o time_n therefore_o say_v they_o we_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o do_v it_o but_o when_o the_o church_n order_v it_o viz._n in_o time_n of_o divine_a service_n and_o sermon_n i_o reply_v this_o rule_n hold_v in_o those_o precept_n the_o time_n of_o performance_n whereof_o be_v not_o determine_v in_o the_o word_n but_o it_o can_v hold_v in_o this_o place_n for_o as_o these_o man_n expound_v the_o text_n the_o time_n be_v appoint_v when_o this_o bow_v shall_v be_v perform_v viz._n at_o the_o mention_n of_o the_o name_n jesus_n therefore_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n at_o any_o time_n to_o name_v it_o or_o hear_v it_o name_v and_o not_o to_o bow_v god_n unlimited_a command_n can_v be_v limit_v therefore_o the_o church_n limit_v it_o to_o a_o time_n can_v not_o ground_v it_o on_o god_n command_n the_o name_n jesus_n be_v the_o same_o name_n at_o one_o time_n or_o place_n as_o at_o another_o it_o can_v be_v prove_v in_o the_o whole_a book_n of_o god_n but_o when_o god_n determine_v a_o time_n of_o do_v any_o thing_n but_o that_o it_o bind_v ordinary_o at_o that_o time_n when_o a_o master_n shall_v say_v to_o his_o servant_n at_o my_o call_v you_o shall_v answer_v and_o give_v attendance_n when_o his_o master_n shall_v call_v and_o he_o give_v no_o attendance_n be_v not_o he_o disobedient_a will_v it_o be_v a_o good_a excuse_n for_o he_o to_o tell_v his_o master_n that_o he_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o wait_v upon_o he_o but_o only_o at_o the_o table_n so_o if_o god_n shall_v say_v at_o the_o sound_n of_o the_o name_n jesus_n you_o shall_v bow_v when_o they_o hear_v it_o often_o mention_v and_o will_v not_o bow_v do_v they_o not_o break_v god_n command_n will_v it_o be_v a_o tolerable_a excuse_n to_o plead_v that_o they_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o do_v it_o but_o only_o at_o church_n when_o nabuchadnezzar_n make_v a_o decree_n dan._n 3_o that_o at_o the_o sound_n of_o the_o cornet_n sackbutt_n etc._n etc._n all_o shall_v fall_v down_o and_o worship_n do_v not_o he_o intend_v that_o this_o command_n shall_v bind_v at_o all_o time_n when_o these_o instrument_n shall_v be_v sound_v out_o and_o do_v not_o the_o people_n of_o the_o land_n judge_n shadrach_n meshach_n and_o abednego_n to_o be_v transgressor_n of_o the_o king_n commandment_n when_o have_v hear_v the_o sound_n they_o do_v not_o bow_v so_o if_o god_n shall_v say_v at_o the_o sound_n of_o the_o name_n jesus_n you_o shall_v all_o bow_n it_o be_v a_o manifest_a breach_n of_o the_o commandment_n when_o at_o any_o time_n it_o be_v hear_v and_o no_o bow_v perform_v therefore_o when_o god_n commandment_n be_v plain_a and_o unlimited_a and_o they_o say_v the_o church_n must_v limit_v it_o they_o give_v the_o church_n authority_n over_o god_n word_n they_o can_v deny_v but_o they_o must_v be_v always_o internal_o reverent_a at_o the_o name_n jesus_n according_a to_o the_o three_o commandment_n which_o enjoin_v inward_a reverence_n at_o all_o time_n when_o we_o mention_v any_o of_o god_n title_n or_o else_o god_n name_n shall_v be_v take_v in_o vain_a if_o then_o expression_n of_o outward_a reverence_n at_o the_o name_n jesus_n be_v also_o god_n command_n it_o must_v be_v perform_v at_o all_o time_n when_o it_o be_v mention_v or_o else_o the_o name_n jesus_n will_v be_v profane_v unless_o they_o will_v have_v the_o precept_n of_o the_o gospel_n less_o obligatory_a and_o bind_a than_o the_o precept_n of_o the_o law_n they_o may_v therefore_o with_o as_o good_a reason_n affirm_v that_o we_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o be_v internal_o reverent_a at_o all_o time_n when_o we_o mention_v the_o name_n jesus_n or_o any_o other_o divine_a title_n but_o only_o in_o the_o church_n as_o not_o
ancient_a and_o modern_a confess_v also_o by_o the_o champion_n for_o bow_v at_o the_o name_n jesus_n as_o *_o 10._o bishop_n andrew_n and_o *_o 48._o mr_n page_n who_o in_o his_o treatise_n of_o justification_n of_o bowing_n understand_v the_o text_n of_o the_o general_a subjection_n of_o all_o creature_n to_o christ_n at_o the_o great_a day_n of_o judgement_n and_o be_v forward_o to_o

at_o the_o name_n jesus_n at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n master_n page_n indeed_o coast_v towards_o it_o but_o speak_v not_o out_o plain_o for_o thus_o he_o answer_v the_o argument_n take_v from_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n *_o alibi_fw-la though_o all_o shall_v be_v subject_a to_o christ_n then_o yet_o shall_v not_o we_o be_v subject_a before_o we_o needs_o must_v and_o declare_v our_o

verify_v of_o some_o knee_n now_o i_o agree_v with_o he_o in_o this_o that_o there_o be_v a_o present_a equity_n of_o the_o text_n i_o consent_v to_o mr_n calvin_n who_o say_v that_o though_o the_o

perfect_o subdue_v till_o the_o last_o day_n but_o yet_o master_n page_n inference_n be_v not_o to_o the_o purpose_n for_o to_o affirm_v that_o because_o we_o must_v be_v all_o subject_n to_o christ_n at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n therefore_o we_o must_v declare_v our_o subjection_n by_o bow_v at_o the_o name_n jesus_n be_v all_o one_o as_o to_o affirm_v because_o servant_n must_v be_v subject_a to_o their_o master_n that_o they_o must_v show_v their_o subjection_n by_o bow_v at_o their_o master_n name_n or_o because_o wife_n must_v be_v subject_a to_o their_o husband_n therefore_o they_o must_v make_v a_o curtsy_n at_o the_o name_n of_o their_o husband_n but_o if_o master_n page_n will_v speak_v to_o the_o purpose_n he_o must_v say_v thus_o because_o all_o creature_n shall_v declare_v their_o subjection_n by_o bow_v at_o the_o name_n jesus_n at_o the_o last_o day_n according_o we_o must_v now_o witness_v our_o subjection_n this_o inference_n be_v right_a if_o he_o can_v prove_v his_o ground_n but_o that_o lie_v upon_o the_o proof_n of_o necessity_n our_o present_a bow_n must_v be_v according_a to_o the_o future_a the_o part_n must_v be_v according_a to_o the_o whole_a the_o perfect_a bow_n must_v regulate_v the_o imperfect_a therefore_o if_o bow_v at_o the_o name_n jesus_n shall_v not_o be_v perform_v at_o that_o day_n it_o concern_v none_o so_o to_o bow_v now_o some_o to_o who_o i_o have_v put_v this_o argument_n and_o find_v it_o too_o hot_a for_o they_o stand_v to_o it_o to_o affirm_v that_o bow_n at_o the_o name_n jesus_n shall_v be_v fulfil_v at_o

his_o person_n there_o will_v be_v no_o time_n or_o place_n for_o bow_v at_o the_o name_n but_o by_o the_o bishop_n reason_n see_v he_o acknowledge_v the_o fulfil_n of_o the_o text_n at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n it_o will_v follow_v that_o christ_n shall_v send_v out_o his_o name_n at_o that_o day_n to_o have_v it_o sound_v out_o that_o all_o shall_v bow_v at_o it_o and_o not_o come_v
