11. Now whether we desire to praise a man in _words_ or _deeds_, we shall find some things which signify honour with all men: such as among _attributes_, are the general words of _virtues_ and _powers_, which cannot be taken in ill sense; as _good_, _fair_, _strong_, _just_, and the like: and among _actions_, _obedience_, _thanksgiving_, _prayers_, and others of that kind, by which an acknowledgment of virtue and power is ever understood. Others, which signify honour but with some, and scorn with others, or else neither; such as in _attributes_, are those words, which, according to the diversity of opinions, are diversely referred to virtues or vices, to honest or dishonest things. As that a man slew his enemy, that he fled, that he is a philosopher, or an orator, and the like; which with some are had in honour, with others in contempt. In _deeds_, such as depend on the custom of the place, or prescriptions of civil laws; as in saluting to be bareheaded, to put off the shoes, to bend the body, to petition for anything standing, prostrate, kneeling, forms of ceremony, and the like. Now that _worship_ which is always and by all men accounted honourable, may be called _natural_; the other, which follows places and customs, _arbitrary_. [Sidenote: One commanded, another voluntary.] 12. Furthermore, _worship_ may be enjoined, to wit, by the _command_ of him that is worshipped, and it may be _voluntary_, namely, such as seems good to the worshipper. If it be _enjoined_, the actions expressing it do not signify honour, as they signify actions, but as they are _enjoined_: for they signify _obedience_ immediately, obedience _power_; insomuch as _worship enjoined_ consists in obedience. _Voluntary_ is honourable only in the nature of the actions; which if they do signify honour to the beholders, it is _worship_, if not, it is _reproach_. Again, _worship_ may be either _public_ or _private_. But _public_, respecting each single worshipper, may not be _voluntary_; respecting the city, it may. For seeing that which is done voluntarily, depends on the will of the doer, there would not one worship be given, but as many worships as worshippers; except the will of all men were united by the command of one. But _private_ worship may be _voluntary_, if it be done secretly; for what is done openly, is restrained either by laws or through modesty; which is contrary to the nature of a _voluntary_ action.
