sabbath_n but_o only_o the_o spiritual_a rest_n which_o the_o faithful_a under_o the_o gospel_n receive_v in_o christ_n the_o word_n be_v plain_a we_o which_o do_v believe_v do_v enter_v into_o rest_n

at_o that_o time_n when_o moses_n say_v it_o be_v the_o holy_a sabbath_n the_o present_a tense_n be_v put_v for_o the_o future_a as_o be_v most_o usual_a when_o we_o speak_v of_o day_n or_o solemnity_n though_o novel_a and_o occasional_a to_o the_o five_o we_o say_v that_o noah_n in_o send_v or_o forbear_v to_o send_v forth_o his_o dove_n be_v not_o guide_v by_o any_o rule_n of_o religion_n for_o i_o will_v ask_v any_o sober_a man_n whether_o if_o noah_n have_v send_v out_o the_o dove_n upon_o the_o sabbath_n suppose_v a_o sabbath_n to_o have_v be_v in_o the_o day_n of_o

sabbath_n for_o noah_n do_v no_o more_o shall_v profane_v it_o which_o to_o affirm_v be_v more_o than_o jewish_a superstition_n but_o you_o will_v say_v noah_n regard_v not_o the_o fly_a of_o the_o dove_n only_o he_o dare_v not_o do_v it_o on_o the_o sabbath_n because_o it_o be_v his_o own_o work_n and_o his_o thought_n shall_v have_v be_v employ_v about_o his_o worldly_a estate_n and_o

shall_v suffice_v to_o remember_v that_o noah_n at_o this_o time_n though_o he_o be_v save_v from_o drown_v yet_o he_o suffer_v also_o under_o the_o common_a distress_n of_o the_o flood_n be_v it_o sin_n think_v you_o for_o noah_n to_o think_v upon_o this_o calamity_n on_o the_o seven_o day_n or_o to_o labour_v to_o know_v how_o near_o god_n have_v set_v a_o period_n to_o that_o misery_n if_o a_o man_n be_v at_o sea_n where_o or_o in_o what_o part_n of_o the_o world_n he_o know_v not_o will_v you_o hold_v he_o guilty_a of_o prophanesse_n if_o he_o shall_v go_v about_o to_o descry_v the_o land_n upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n but_o what_o other_o reason_n can_v be_v give_v of_o this_o seven_o day_n expectation_n which_o be_v thus_o note_v in_o the_o text_n some_o perhaps_o will_v say_v because_o seven_o be_v the_o number_n of_o perfection_n that_o noah_n may_v have_v conceive_v that_o god_n will_v complete_a his_o judgement_n and_o make_v dry_a the_o earth_n upon_o some_o seven_o day_n or_o that_o know_v that_o god_n make_v the_o world_n in_o seven_o day_n of_o nothing_o he_o may_v hope_v that_o he_o will_v new_o make_v it_o again_o as_o it_o be_v out_o of_o the_o flood_n in_o some_o such_o time_n but_o for_o my_o own_o part_n i_o do_v not_o conceive_v that_o the_o observation_n of_o number_n be_v yet_o extant_a but_o rather_o that_o noah_n be_v direct_v hereunto_o by_o the_o change_n of_o the_o moon_n in_o every_o seven_o day_n well_o bolton_n well_o he_o resolve_v to_o open_v the_o window_n or_o floodgate_n of_o heaven_n give_v extraordinary_a strength_n of_o influence_n to_o the_o star_n bolton_n know_v that_o the_o element_n of_o water_n be_v most_o subject_a to_o this_o planet_n as_o experience_n show_v and_o there_o be_v no_o doubt_n to_o be_v make_v but_o that_o as_o god_n do_v miraculous_o both_o power_n down_o the_o flood_n and_o withdraw_v it_o so_o in_o both_o work_v he_o use_v the_o help_n of_o second_o cause_n and_o strengthen_v the_o natural_a influence_n of_o those_o heavenly_a body_n this_o reason_n therefore_o do_v no_o way_n conclude_v to_o the_o sixth_o which_o be_v the_o place_n of_o job._n understanding_n by_o the_o son_n
