(επεσα προσκυνησα). Second aorist active indicative of πιπτω (with -α form) and the first aorist active infinitive of purpose of προσκυνεω.

Genitive singular of the articular present active participle of δεικνυω. Cf. Revelation 1:1; Revelation 4:1; Revelation 17:1; Revelation 21:9; Revelation 22:1; Revelation 22:6.
