hereby_o it_o appear_v also_o upon_o what_o poor_a ground_n our_o common_a people_n have_v hither_o to_o go_v in_o rely_v their_o soul_n in_o this_o matter_n upon_o their_o minister_n zeal_n

occationes_fw-la distinguish_v betwixt_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n &_o the_o anniversary_n sabbath_v my_o reason_n be_v these_o 1._o because_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v more_o ancient_a than_o the_o yearly_a sabbath_n for_o these_o begin_v but_o after_o the_o give_v of_o the_o law_n but_o that_o begin_v before_o the_o give_n of_o the_o law_n 2._o because_o god_n sanctify_v and_o hallow_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n in_o a_o special_a manner_n genes_n 2.3_o the_o which_o honour_n he_o do_v not_o to_o the_o yearly_a sabbath_n these_o be_v holy_a but_o by_o precept_n but_o that_o also_o by_o precedent_n these_o be_v holy_a but_o by_o destination_n only_o but_o that_o be_v holy_a by_o consecration_n also_o 3._o because_o they_o be_v distinct_a in_o themselves_o the_o one_o be_v once_o every_o week_n the_o other_o once_o every_o year_n 4._o because_o god_n place_v the_o weekly_a seven_o day_n sabbath_n in_o his_o moral_a law_n and_o in_o the_o heart_n or_o first_o table_n thereof_o but_o the_o yearly_a sabbath_n be_v exclude_v thence_o and_o never_o come_v into_o the_o table_n of_o stone_n 5._o because_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v a_o sign_n of_o and_o keep_v in_o memory_n of_o the_o creation_n which_o belong_v unto_o all_o man_n alike_o but_o so_o be_v it_o not_o with_o the_o yearly_a sabbath_n there_o be_v good_a reason_n therefore_o why_o i_o shall_v distinguish_v the_o weekly_a sabbath_n from_o the_o yearly_a sabbath_n according_a as_o i_o have_v do_v in_o all_o my_o answer_n sect_n xx._n have_v in_o the_o former_a section_n of_o this_o
