very_o direct_a thou_o shall_v do_v no_o manner_n of_o work_n what_o not_o quench_v a_o house_n of_o fire_n not_o water_n a_o beast_n not_o provide_v necessary_a food_n yes_o work_v of_o necessity_n

grant_v the_o four_o precept_n for_o aught_o i_o see_v little_a exceed_v in_o rigour_n touch_v the_o sabbath_n the_o canon_n and_o statute_n law_n of_o this_o land_n concerning_o the_o mean_a holy_a day_n differ_v i_o do_v herein_o from_o my_o sacred_a mother_n the_o church_n of_o england_n it_o can_v be_v deny_v she_o have_v express_v herself_o otherwise_o 1._o viz._n that_o this_o commandment_n of_o god_n do_v not_o bind_v christian_a people_n so_o straight_o to_o observe_v the_o utter_a ceremony_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n as_o touch_v the_o forbear_n of_o work_n and_o labour_n in_o time_n of_o great_a necessity_n but_o see_v in_o the_o substance_n viz._n that_o we_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o observe_v the_o lord_n day_n with_o that_o extreme_a severity_n which_o once_o belong_v to_o the_o jewish_a sabbath_n we_o consent_v i_o hope_v a_o difference_n in_o the_o manner_n of_o expression_n be_v at_o most_o but_o a_o peccadillo_n but_o a_o venial_a fault_n our_o dissent_n be_v only_o this_o that_o strictness_n which_o she_o reduce_v to_o the_o four_o commandment_n i_o rather_o lodge_v and_o settle_v in_o those_o accessary_a and_o occasional_a law_n which_o be_v quite_o of_o another_o parish_n and_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v here_o if_o it_o be_v here_o object_v that_o this_o precept_n bind_v not_o to_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n and_o therefore_o no_o matter_n what_o it_o enjoin_v i_o answer_v it_o do_v oblige_v to_o the_o observation_n of_o this_o day_n for_o no_o other_o day_n can_v proper_o be_v call_v god_n sabbath_n than_o this_o because_o no_o other_o day_n be_v weekly_o solemnize_v in_o the_o church_n and_o thereto_o destine_v by_o divine_a appointment_n which_o be_v the_o certain_a character_n of_o the_o sabbath_n of_o that_o commandment_n beside_o all_o expositor_n interpret_v this_o precept_n of_o this_o day_n especial_o and_o some_o of_o none_o other_o and_o above_o all_o our_o church_n itself_o be_v so_o full_a as_o nothing_o can_v be_v desire_v more_o apposite_a to_o our_o purpose_n than_o what_o she_o have_v deliver_v prayer_n like_o as_o it_o appear_v by_o this_o commandment_n say_v she_o that_o no_o man_n in_o the_o six_o day_n ought_v to_o be_v slothful_a and_o idle_a but_o diligent_o labour_v in_o that_o estate_n wherein_o god_n have_v set_v he_o even_o so_o god_n have_v give_v express_a charge_n to_o all_o man_n that_o upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n which_o be_v now_o our_o sunday_n they_o shall_v cease_v from_o all_o weekly_a and_o work-day_n labour_n and_o give_v themselves_o whole_o to_o divine_a exercise_n of_o god_n true_a religion_n and_o service_n and_o a_o few_o line_n after_o she_o say_v that_o to_o keep_v the_o christian_a sabbath_n which_o be_v the_o sunday_n be_v god_n express_a commandment_n these_o be_v loud_a and_o clear_a demonstration_n of_o what_o our_o church_n then_o think_v wherein_o two_o thing_n be_v remarkable_a first_o that_o she_o reduce_v the_o observation_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n to_o the_o four_o commandment_n and_o second_o that_o without_o any_o scruple_n she_o very_o broad_o call_v it_o our_o sabbath_n 8._o yea_o and_o the_o sabbath_n a_o word_n whereat_o much_o offence_n have_v late_o be_v take_v and_o all_o that_o use_v it_o be_v check_v by_o our_o great_a schoolman_n who_o good_a man_n in_o a_o tender_a care_n of_o we_o 120._o advise_v that_o we_o follow_v the_o language_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o also_o of_o the_o primitive_a church_n that_o we_o vary_v not_o from_o other_o reform_a church_n that_o we_o gratify_v not_o the_o jew_n in_o their_o obstinacy_n against_o christ_n that_o we_o offend_v not_o our_o weak_a brethren_n and_o last_o that_o we_o use_v that_o name_n which_o do_v most_o edify_v viz._n the_o lord_n day_n as_o concerning_o the_o style_n lord_n day_n we_o quarrel_n not_o at_o it_o we_o be_v no_o enemy_n of_o it_o we_o use_v it_o for_o aught_o i_o know_v more_o frequent_o than_o sabbath_n yet_o be_v it_o true_o sense_v and_o according_a to_o right_a sense_n due_o observe_v it_o will_v contract_v not_o only_o the_o title_n but_o nature_n of_o a_o sabbath_n for_o what_o be_v our_o lord_n day_n but_o the_o evangelical_a sabbath_n as_o the_o legal_a sabbath_n be_v the_o jewish_a lord_n day_n be_v the_o lord_n day_n thus_o state_v call_v it_o then_o by_o that_o name_n ever_o if_o you_o please_v it_o not_o at_o all_o offend_v we_o but_o when_o it_o become_v from_o the_o sabbath_n a_o ordinary_a holy_a day_n or_o rather_o playday_n from_o the_o lord_n day_n the_o church_n day_n we_o have_v then_o just_a cause_n to_o rouse_v the_o world_n by_o shrill_a expression_n and_o loud_a manifestation_n that_o it_o be_v both_o the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n and_o also_o the_o lord_n day_n that_o be_v of_o his_o institution_n but_o to_o pursue_v this_o not_o without_o wonder_n behold_v the_o strange_a condition_n of_o these_o man_n who_o inveigh_v so_o bitter_o
