of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n ¶_o the_o four_o sermon_n the_o four_o commandment_n of_o the_o precept_n first_o table_n be_v word_n for_o word_n as_o follow_v remember_v that_o thou_o keep_v holy_a the_o

bless_v the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o hallow_v it_o the_o order_n which_o the_o lord_n use_v commandment_n in_o give_v these_o commandment_n be_v natural_a and_o very_o excellent_a in_o the_o first_o

holy_o and_o free_o to_o praise_v it_o and_o to_o think_v and_o speak_v of_o it_o as_o religious_o as_o he_o shall_v give_v we_o grace_n the_o four_o commandment_n teach_v we_o also_o the_o worship_n

god_n and_o the_o hallow_n of_o his_o holy_a name_n but_o yet_o it_o bend_v somewhat_o to_o the_o outward_a honour_n although_o nevertheless_o it_o frame_v to_o the_o inward_a religion_n for_o the_o sabbath_n do_v belong_v both_o to_o the_o inward_a and_o outward_a service_n of_o god_n let_v we_o see_v therefore_o what_o we_o sabbath_n have_v to_o think_v that_o the_o sabbath_n be_v how_o far_o

be_v not_o able_a to_o look_v into_o the_o faith_n of_o other_o man_n which_o do_v consist_v in_o the_o mind_n and_o therefore_o we_o judge_v by_o their_o word_n and_o deed_n honest_a word_n and_o

that_o we_o have_v faith_n in_o deed_n whereas_o the_o lack_n of_o they_o do_v argue_v the_o contrary_n and_o therefore_o the_o scripture_n admonish_v we_o that_o the_o judgement_n shall_v be_v according_a to_o our_o work_n to_o this_o sense_n agree_v that_o in_o the_o 12._o of_o matthew_n where_o it_o be_v say_v by_o thy_o deed_n thou_o shall_v be_v justify_v and_o by_o the_o same_o thou_o

only_o beget_v son_n i_o will_v bless_v thou_o and_o multiply_v thou_o exceed_o etc_n etc_n but_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o god_n make_v that_o promise_n to_o abraham_n before_o isaac_n be_v bear_v
