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

concerning_o the_o lordsday_n beginning_n at_o morning_n be_v this_o that_o christ_n resurrection_n do_v alter_v the_o beginning_n of_o that_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n whereon_o be_v arise_v from_o evening_n to_o morning_n which_o i_o have_v manifest_v to_o be_v a_o apparent_a error_n contrary_a to_o the_o scripture_n which_o testify_v that_o that_o day_n begin_v at_o evening_n and_o that_o christ_n resurrection_n do_v nothing_o alter_v it_o as_o the_o three_o and_o five_o precede_v conclusion_n prove_v at_o large_a wherefore_o i_o shall_v here_o demand_v of_o the_o objector_n how_o it_o appear_v that_o christ_n resurrection_n make_v such_o a_o change_n as_o they_o pretend_v if_o by_o scripture_n show_v one_o text_n that_o necessary_o prove_v it_o this_o i_o be_o sure_a they_o can_v do_v if_o not_o by_o scripture_n then_o it_o be_v a_o mere_a groundless_a conceit_n of_o their_o own_o forge_n yea_o but_o though_o they_o want_v scripture_n yet_o they_o have_v this_o sound_a reason_n to_o prove_v it_o christ_n rise_v again_o upon_o the_o first_o morning_n therefore_o he_o translate_v the_o beginning_n of_o it_o from_o evenig_n to_o morning_n to_o which_o i_o reply_v that_o this_o main_a capital_a reason_n be_v but_o a_o gross_a in_o consequent_a and_o a_o circular_a argumentation_n for_o if_o the_o argument_n be_v deny_v as_o just_o it_o may_v be_v then_o they_o prove_v it_o by_o that_o very_a medium_n which_o be_v next_o before_o deny_v and_o they_o ought_v to_o make_v good_a that_o christ_n resurrection_n do_v chan●e_n the_o day_n from_o morning_n
