hallow_v or_o sanctify_v it_o that_o be_v by_o separation_n destination_n and_o appointment_n for_o holy_a use_n and_o as_o a_o part_n of_o worship_n so_o he_o sanctify_v the_o temple_n altar_n etc._n

thought_n and_o action_n whereby_o many_o thing_n lawful_a on_o other_o day_n become_v unlawful_a on_o this_o day_n yet_o 2._o we_o assert_v that_o by_o this_o rest_n all_o sort_n of_o action_n be_v not_o condemn_v but_o only_o such_o as_o be_v inconsistent_a with_o the_o end_n and_o scope_n of_o this_o command_n as_o by_o other_o scripture_n and_o the_o practice_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o saint_n be_v clear_a we_o conceive_v therefore_o these_o to_o be_v permit_v 1._o all_o duty_n of_o piety_n as_o be_v sacrifice_v under_o the_o old_a testament_n or_o preach_v hear_v or_o go_v about_o
