rest_v yea_o from_o our_o lawful_a and_o needful_a work_n for_o like_a as_o it_o appear_v by_o this_o commandment_n that_o no_o man_n in_o the_o six_o day_n ought_v to_o be_v slothful_a or_o idle_a but_o diligent_o to_o labour_v in_o that_o state_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_v day_n labour_n to_o the_o intent_n that_o like_a as_o god_n himself_o wrought_v six_o day_n and_o rest_v the_o seven_o and_o bless_a and_o sanctify_v it_o and_o consecrate_v it_o to_o quietness_n and_o rest_n from_o labour_n even_o so_o god_n obedient_a people_n shall_v use_v the_o sunday_n holy_o and_o rest_n from_o their_o common_a and_o daily_a business_n and_o also_o give_v themselves_o whole_o to_o heavenly_a exercise_n of_o god_n true_a religion_n and_o service_n so_o that_o god_n do_v not_o only_o command_v the_o observation_n of_o this_o holy_a day_n but_o also_o by_o his_o own_o example_n do_v stir_v and_o provoke_v we_o to_o the_o diligent_a keep_n of_o the_o same_o good_a natural_a child_n will_v not_o only_o become_v obedient_a to_o the_o commandment_n of_o their_o parent_n but_o also_o have_v a_o diligent_a eye_n to_o their_o do_n and_o glad_o follow_v the_o same_o so_o if_o we_o will_v be_v the_o child_n of_o our_o heavenly_a father_n we_o must_v be_v careful_a to_o keep_v the_o christian_a sabbath_n day_n which_o be_v the_o sunday_n not_o only_o for_o that_o it_o be_v god_n express_a commandment_n but_o also_o to_o declare_v ourselves_o to_o be_v love_a child_n in_o follow_v the_o example_n of_o our_o gracious_a lord_n and_o father_n so_o the_o homily_n and_o again_o as_o follow_v thus_o it_o may_v plain_o appear_v that_o god_n will_v and_o commandment_n be_v to_o have_v a_o solemn_a time_n and_o stand_a day_n in_o the_o week_n wherein_o the_o people_n shall_v

and_o much_o more_o whence_o we_o plain_o observe_v these_o conclusion_n 1._o that_o all_o christian_n ought_v and_o be_v bind_v in_o conscience_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n to_o keep_v the_o lord_n day_n holy_o 2._o that_o by_o the_o force_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n one_o day_n in_o 7._o be_v perpetual_o to_o be_v keep_v holy_a 3._o that_o the_o keep_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v ground_v upon_o and_o command_v in_o the_o four_o commandment_n and_o so_o be_v not_o of_o humane_a institution_n 4._o that_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v and_o may_v be_v call_v our_o christian_a sabbath_n day_n therefore_o it_o be_v not_o jewish_a to_o call_v it_o so_o 5._o that_o this_o day_n be_v whole_o to_o be_v spend_v in_o holy_a rest_n and_o duty_n of_o sanctification_n and_o therefore_o no_o part_n of_o it_o to_o be_v spend_v in_o vain_a pleasure_n and_o profane_a pastime_n now_o the_o author_n of_o the_o treatise_n do_v overthrow_v all_o these_o conclusion_n as_o be_v to_o be_v see_v throughout_o his_o book_n a._n i_o pray_v you_o show_v some_o instance_n hereof_o b._n pag._n 23._o his_o word_n be_v this_o position_n to_o wit_n that_o the_o four_o commandment_n
