Chapter 45: XLV. Of the Snuff-dishes that were with the Snuffers in the Temple.
Modern spelling is a reading aid: the words are the author’s, only the spelling is modernized. Original shows the page as printed, with the transcription marks.
AS there were Snuffers, so there were also Snuff-dishes in the Temple. And they were also made of gold, Exo. 25.28. cha. 37.23. Numb. 4.9. The Snuff-dishes were those in which the Snuffs were put, when snuffed off, and by which they were carried ⟨p. 118⟩forth of the Temple. They therefore as the Snuffers are, are of great use in the Temple of God.
1. By them the golden Floor of the Temple is kept, from being daubed by the Snuffs.
2. By them also the clean hands of those that worship there, are kept from being defiled.
3. By them also the stink of the Snuffs is soonest suppressed in the Temple, and consequently the tender Noses of them that worship there, preserved from being offended.
