‏ Revelation of John 4:10

 Shall fall down ( πεσουντα, future middle of  πιπτω ),

 shall worship ( προσκυνησουσιν, future active of  προσκυνεω ),

 shall cast their crowns ( βαλουσιν τους στεφανους, future active of  βαλλω ). The two actions by the two groups (living creatures, elders) are coordinated (simultaneous in the repetition). They thus acknowledge that all this kingly dignity comes from God, who is King of kings and Lord of lords. Charles takes the elders, however, to be angels, not redeemed men.
