d_o he_o 5_o the_o christian_n church_n ever_o since_o the_o apostle_n time_n have_v keep_v a_o sabbaoth_a day_n according_a to_o the_o practice_n and_o writing_n of_o the_o apostle_n so_o much_o of_o the_o antiquity_n of_o the_o sabbaoth_v day_n now_o of_o the_o end_n for_o which_o a_o sabbaoth_n or_o day_n of_o rest_n be_v first_o ordain_v and_o those_o be_v two_o 1_o the_o first_o be_v a_o more_o principal_a end_n and_o that_o be_v to_o further_o both_o adam_n at_o the_o first_o and_o adam_n posterity_n for_o ever_o in_o the_o true_a worship_n of_o god_n now_o so_o long_o as_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n must_v continue_v in_o the_o church_n so_o long_o must_v the_o sabbaoth_v continue_v which_o be_v make_v a_o subordinate_a mean_n and_o help_n unto_o the_o same_o but_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n must_v continue_v for_o ever_o in_o the_o world_n therefore_o also_o while_o the_o world_n stand_v a_o sabbaoth_a day_n must_v be_v continue_v 2_o the_o second_o end_n of_o a_o sabbaoth_n be_v less_o principal_a and_o that_o be_v to_o help_v nature_n and_o to_o maintain_v bodily_a strength_n exod._n 23.12_o and_o in_o regard_n of_o these_o two_o end_n it_o be_v still_o most_o necessary_a which_o may_v appear_v by_o reason_n 1_o general_n and_o those_o may_v be_v draw_v 1_o from_o the_o great_a to_o the_o less_o for_o if_o adam_n in_o his_o best_a estate_n have_v need_n of_o a_o sabbaoth_v day_n wherein_o he_o may_v serve_v god_n by_o meditate_v upon_o his_o work_n by_o pray_v unto_o he_o for_o the_o continuance_n of_o his_o grace_n and_o by_o praise_v his_o

and_o therefore_o look_v how_o much_o we_o be_v weaken_v &_o break_v more_o than_o our_o forefather_n be_v and_o adam_n in_o paradise_n so_o much_o more_o need_n have_v we_o of_o a_o sabbath_n that_o be_v a_o rest_n than_o they_o have_v 2_o special_a and_o these_o in_o regard_n 1_o of_o the_o wicked_a who_o upon_o the_o six_o day_n never_o read_v the_o scripture_n nor_o hear_v they_o nor_o pray_v nor_o meditate_v nor_o confer_v of_o religion_n but_o by_o this_o merciful_a ordinance_n of_o a_o sabbaoth_n they_o be_v drive_v to_o do_v that_o which_o they_o will_v not_o otherwise_o do_v by_o which_o mean_n either_o some_o good_a may_v be_v wrought_v in_o they_o if_o they_o belong_v unto_o god_n or_o else_o they_o shall_v be_v leave_v without_o excuse_n in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n 2_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o godly_a themselves_o who_o oftentimes_o also_o neglect_v the_o exercise_n of_o god_n worship_n in_o the_o week_n day_n but_o be_v drive_v by_o this_o mean_n of_o a_o sabbaoth_n to_o supply_v their_o former_a want_n to_o their_o great_a good_a the_o proof_n a_o gen._n 2.3_o so_o god_n bless_v the_o seven_o day_n and_o sanctify_v it_o because_o that_o in_o it_o he_o

their_o great_a &_o apostolical_a authority_n they_o can_v prevail_v more_o than_o they_o 2_o that_o the_o apostle_n make_v this_o change_n of_o the_o day_n upon_o good_a reason_n make_v know_v to_o the_o church_n and_o those_o be_v chief_o two_o 1_o in_o memory_n of_o the_o second_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n by_o christ_n because_o on_o that_o day_n the_o lord_n jesus_n do_v most_o
