A86302 Respondet Petrus: or, The answer of Peter Heylyn D.D. to so much of Dr. Bernard's book entituled, The judgement of the late Primate of Ireland, &c. as he is made a party to by the said Lord Primate in the point of the Sabbath, and by the said doctor in some others. To which is added an appendix in answer to certain passages in Mr Sandersons History of the life and reign of K· Charles, relating to the Lord Primate, the articles of Ireland, and the Earl of Strafford, in which the respondent is concerned.

to_o state_n the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n in_o the_o place_n and_o honour_n of_o the_o jewish_a sabbath_n and_o now_o before_o i_o shut_v up_o this_o dispute_n about_o the_o pentecost_n i_o shall_v crave_v leave_n to_o put_v the_o lord_n primate_n in_o mind_n of_o a_o great_a mistake_n which_o he_o have_v fall_v into_o by_o put_v another_o sense_n on_o tertullia_n word_n about_o the_o first_o pentecost_n as_o observe_v by_o the_o christian_n than_o be_v intend_v by_o that_o author_n for_o tell_v we_o p._n 85._o that_o the_o gentile_n do_v not_o celebrate_v their_o saturday_n with_o that_o solemnity_n wherewith_o themselves_o do_v their_o annual_a festivity_n or_o the_o jew_n their_o weekly_a sabbath_n he_o bring_v for_o a_o proof_n thereof_o a_o passage_n cite_v out_o of_o the_o

of_o the_o author_n in_o that_o place_n in_o which_o he_o first_o tax_v the_o christian_n with_o keep_v many_o of_o the_o feast_n of_o the_o gentile_n whereas_o the_o gentile_n keep_v not_o any_o of_o

if_o they_o do_v it_o on●●y_o to_o refresh_v their_o spirit_n or_o indulge_v something_o to_o the_o flesh_n they_o have_v more_o festival_n of_o their_o own_o then_o the_o gentile_n have_v the_o

they_o can_v not_o equal_v the_o festival_n of_o the_o pentecost_n only_o much_o less_o the_o pentecost_n and_o the_o lord_n day_n together_o and_o so_o it_o be_v observe_v by_o pamelius_n in_o his_o
