They first arise out of their seats or chairs,1 and fall down ([Greek or Hebrew] fall) upon their knees or on their face before god. And in falling or kneeling down, they show a submission or lowliness of mind, that we might learn with great humility and reverence to submit our souls and bodies to our God, submitting I say, our selves and all our things to his good will and pleasure. But if the blessed souls, now purified, and already having the fruition of the sight of God, fall down before the Lord. What should not a wretched man do miserable, mortal, and a sinner? Let him be ashamed of rebellion and slothfulness, which seeth so great submission in the most noble and Godly souls of heavenly dwellers.
