A91155	A briefe polemicall dissertation, concerning the true time of the inchoation and determination of the Lordsday-Sabbath. Wherein is clearly and irrefragably manifested by Scripture, reason, authorities, in all ages till this present: that the Lordsday begins and ends at evening; and ought to be solemnized from evening to evening: against the novel errours, mistakes of such, who groundlesly assert; that it begins and ends at midnight, or day-breaking; and ought to be sanctified from midnight to midnight, or morning to morning: whose arguments are here examined, refuted as unsound, absurd, frivolous. Compiled in the Tower of London, and now published, for the information, reformation of all contrary judgment or practise. By William Prynne of Swainswick Esq;.	Prynne, William, 1600-1669.	1654 (1654)	Wing P3916; Thomason E814_11	82,955	107

for_o the_o limit_v or_o measure_v out_o of_o all_o festival_n occasion_n happen_v on_o they_o and_o reduce_v they_o to_o a_o certainty_n as_o i_o have_v manifest_v at_o large_a in_o the_o four_o conclusion_n wherefore_o no_o event_n or_o festival_n happen_v on_o those_o day_n can_v alter_v the_o limit_n or_o beginning_n of_o they_o nor_o make_v they_o long_o or_o short_a no_o more_o than_o

bushel_n or_o length_n of_o the_o yard_n second_o because_o every_o occasion_n that_o may_v cause_v a_o subsequent_a consecration_n of_o a_o day_n for_o a_o sabbath_n or_o holy_a day_n and_o so_o christ_n resurrection_n do_v only_o dedicate_v that_o day_n yea_o all_o that_o day_n on_o which_o it_o fall_v not_o part_n of_o that_o day_n and_o part_n of_o the_o day_n ensue_v on_o which_o it_o do_v not_o happen_v therefore_o consecrate_v only_o that_o very_a day_n all_o that_o day_n and_o no_o other_o day_n but_o that_o it_o must_v needs_o begin_v and_o end_n when_o that_o day_n do_v now_o that_o very_a day_n on_o which_o our_o saviour_n arise_v begin_v and_o end_v at_o evening_n as_o i_o have_v prove_v his_o resurrection_n therefore_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o consecrate_v all_o that_o
