require_v as_o a_o part_n of_o its_o sanctification_n be_v necessary_a and_o require_v as_o a_o due_a preparation_n thereunto_o 1._o from_o what_o the_o learned_a and_o pious_a doctor_n say_v i_o infer_v that_o these_o sabbatarian_o do_v not_o only_o judaize_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o seventh-day_n itself_o but_o also_o as_o to_o the_o time_n when_o they_o begin_v their_o pretend_a sabbath_n 2._o and_o as_o to_o what_o he_o say_v about_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n i_o see_v no_o just_a cause_n to_o dissent_v from_o he_o provide_v none_o from_o thence_o take_v liberty_n to_o end_v the_o day_n too_o soon_o and_o i_o think_v it_o will_v be_v a_o reproach_n to_o any_o person_n to_o begin_v to_o work_v before_o midnight_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n or_o to_o suffer_v their_o servant_n to_o work_v after_o twelve_o a_o clock_n on_o the_o seventh-day_n at_o night_n nay_o it_o may_v be_v better_o if_o they_o leave_v off_o soon_o that_o so_o they_o may_v not_o be_v hinder_v in_o god_n service_n on_o his_o day_n for_o the_o natural_a day_n with_o we_o begin_v at_o midnight_n and_o end_n at_o midnight_n and_o though_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n day_n not_o the_o night_n we_o be_v to_o observe_v in_o his_o solemn_a worship_n yet_o must_v we_o have_v time_n for_o preparation_n and_o after_o the_o day_n be_v go_v for_o meditation_n prayer_n etc._n etc._n and_o let_v none_o mistake_v the_o doctor_n he_o hint_n plain_o enough_o that_o by_o way_n of_o preparation_n we_o ought_v to_o begin_v soon_o and_o then_o certain_o to_o continue_v our_o meditation_n after_o the_o day_n be_v past_a till_o it_o be_v fit_a to_o go_v to_o our_o natural_a rest_n and_o the_o contrary_n be_v a_o scandal_n and_o reproach_n to_o religion_n and_o true_a piety_n how_o the_o lord_n day_n shall_v be_v keep_v certain_o since_o the_o lord_n day_n or_o the_o first-day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v the_o day_n of_o holy_a rest_n and_o solemn_a worship_n in_o gospel-time_n it_o behove_v we_o to_o know_v and_o consider_v well_o how_o we_o shall_v keep_v it_o or_o observe_v it_o to_o the_o lord_n 1._o evident_a it_o be_v that_o some_o be_v carry_v away_o by_o delusion_n who_o believe_v all_o day_n be_v alike_o and_o so_o every_o day_n shall_v be_v keep_v as_o a_o sabbath_n which_o be_v nothing_o less_o than_o the_o design_n of_o the_o devil_n who_o if_o he_o can_v persuade_v man_n that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n as_o a_o sacred_a rest_n or_o any_o one_o day_n require_v by_o authority_n from_o christ_n will_v soon_o bring_v they_o to_o observe_v no_o day_n at_o all_o and_o so_o all_o gospel-worship_n religion_n piety_n and_o the_o special_a day_n of_o worship_n will_v soon_o fall_v together_o 2._o nay_o and_o i_o be_o satisfy_v that_o one_o grand_a cause_n of_o the_o lamentable_a decay_n of_o true_a zeal_n and_o piety_n and_o of_o the_o grievous_a withering_n among_o we_o in_o these_o day_n be_v that_o sad_a carelessness_n and_o looseness_n about_o a_o due_a
