we_o be_v deliver_v by_o jesus_n christ_n from_o the_o moysaicall_a bondage_n of_o maintain_v the_o minister_n according_a to_o the_o levitical_a law_n and_o since_o we_o be_v at_o liberty_n and_o

deliver_v we_o from_o that_o bondage_n and_o have_v make_v all_o place_n alike_o as_o to_o any_o moysaicall_a sanctity_n do_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o christian_n may_v from_o thenceforward_o choose_v whether_o they_o will_v meet_v any_o where_n or_o no_o or_o that_o one_o believer_n may_v run_v one_o way_n and_o another_o another_o way_n and_o so_o never_o come_v to_o the_o place_n

upon_o the_o sabbath_n and_o pluck_v the_o ear_n of_o corn_n to_o satisfy_v a_o little_a hunger_n he_o will_v not_o if_o the_o sabbath_n have_v be_v in_o force_n have_v judge_v it_o a_o breach_n of_o the_o sabbath_n for_o they_o to_o fly_v to_o save_v their_o life_n three_o the_o reason_n why_o they_o be_v to_o pray_v that_o they_o may_v not_o fly_v on_o that_o day_n be_v because_o the_o seditious_a jew_n as_o story_n make_v mention_v be_v so_o zealous_a of_o their_o sabbath_n that_o if_o any_o for_o fear_v of_o a_o enemy_n shall_v have_v offer_v to_o fly_v to_o save_v his_o life_n upon_o the_o sabbath_n the_o jew_n themselves_o will_v have_v lay_v hand_n first_o upon_o he_o therefore_o christ_n bid_v they_o pray_v that_o they_o may_v not_o fly_v then_o lest_o they_o shall_v
