A16523 The doctrine of the sabbath plainely layde forth, and soundly proued by testimonies both of holy scripture, and also of olde and new ecclesiasticall writers. Declaring first from what things God would haue vs straightly to rest vpon the Lords day, and then by what meanes we ought publikely and priuatly to sanctifie the same: together with the sundry abuses of our time in both these kindes, and how they ought to bee reformed. Diuided into two bookes, by Nicolas Bownde, Doctor of Diuinitie. Bownd, Nicholas, d. 1613. 1595 (1595) STC 3436; ESTC S113231 229,943 300

in_o man_n conscience_n in_o these_o profane_a and_o irreligious_a time_n especial_o wherein_o as_o the_o contempt_n of_o all_o religion_n appear_v in_o many_o place_n so_o especial_o it_o bewray_v

by_o man_n as_o the_o other_o so_o it_o do_v great_o advance_v the_o dignity_n of_o the_o day_n as_o that_o which_o be_v derive_v from_o the_o name_n of_o the_o most_o high_a and_o if_o a_o mortal_a

he_o have_v not_o his_o right_a name_n and_o just_a title_n give_v unto_o he_o so_o no_o doubt_n the_o honour_n of_o the_o day_n appear_v not_o to_o be_v so_o great_a as_o it_o be_v when_o it_o want_v that_o most_o excellent_a name_n by_o the_o which_o it_o be_v commend_v unto_o we_o in_o the_o scripture_n i_o grant_v indeed_o it_o will_v seem_v strange_a unto_o we_o at_o the_o first_o to_o
