which_o else_o can_v be_v full_o and_o right_o understand_v for_o we_o must_v expound_v these_o three_o verse_n as_o if_o they_o have_v be_v place_v at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o three_o chapter_n and_o this_o be_v no_o new_a device_n of_o man_n brain_n but_o it_o be_v a_o usual_a thing_n for_o the_o penman_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n to_o make_v such_o like_a dislocation_n of_o chapter_n and_o

the_o three_o chapter_n though_o moses_n for_o the_o reason_n aforesaid_a have_v set_v it_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o second_o chapter_n so_o then_o by_o this_o rule_n of_o direction_n i_o hope_v

to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n without_o any_o intermission_n or_o loss_n of_o time_n the_o order_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n of_o the_o first_o table_n lie_v thus_o 1_o the_o first_o

worship_n may_v be_v continue_v but_o by_o translate_n the_o seven_o day_n to_o the_o next_o day_n for_o by_o that_o mean_v only_o god_n shall_v still_o have_v the_o seven_o part_n of_o time_n for_o

his_o particular_a church_n they_o will_v hardly_o agree_v upon_o a_o way_n of_o decency_n especial_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o solemnity_n of_o time_n doubtless_o they_o will_v appoint_v several_a
