to_o this_o generation_n swim_v in_o their_o tear_n and_o prayer_n and_o which_o many_o in_o these_o day_n have_v so_o much_o look_v and_o long_v for_o that_o every_o eye_n shall_v be_v look_v up_o

sabbath_n be_v yet_o most_o precious_a and_o glorious_a and_o who_o can_v easy_o forget_v such_o bless_a season_n and_o mean_n in_o they_o whereby_o if_o ever_o the_o lord_n do_v good_a unto_o they_o they_o have_v be_v so_o oft_o refresh_v and_o wherein_o they_o have_v so_o oft_o see_v god_n wherein_o they_o have_v so_o oft_o meet_v with_o he_o and_o he_o with_o they_o but_o who_o heart_n will_v

the_o sabbath_n ordinance_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n therein_o have_v do_v they_o i_o know_v not_o but_o it_o will_v break_v one_o heart_n to_o see_v what_o little_a care_n there_o be_v to_o

what_o little_a care_n to_o profit_n by_o it_o or_o to_o instruct_v and_o catehize_v their_o family_n and_o to_o bring_v they_o also_o it_o love_v with_o it_o what_o secret_a weariness_n and_o

but_o not_o necessary_a in_o respect_n of_o any_o command_n of_o god_n nay_o some_o think_v it_o superstition_n to_o observe_v a_o weekly_a sabbath_n which_o shall_v be_v every_o day_n as_o they_o imagine_v they_o have_v allegorize_v god_n sabbath_n and_o almost_o all_o god_n ordinance_n out_o of_o the_o world_n and_o cast_v such_o pretend_a antichristian_a filth_n and_o pollution_n upon_o
