sabbath_n as_o i_o have_v prove_v in_o a_o peculiar_a treatise_n man_n may_v set_v apart_o one_o day_n in_o a_o year_n for_o special_a thanksgiving_n or_o commemoration_n and_o one_o day_n in_o a_o week_n e._n g._n in_o a_o time_n of_o plague_n and_o danger_n to_o fast_o and_o pray_v etc._n etc._n but_o if_o any_o shall_v make_v another_o weekly_a day_n of_o holy_a observance_n to_o

and_o foolishness_n to_o the_o world_n in_o the_o apostle_n day_n and_o yet_o they_o never_o make_v such_o a_o sacrament_n and_o who_o have_v equal_a power_n with_o they_o §_o 2._o if_o any_o say_v the_o church_n do_v not_o make_v it_o a_o sacrament_n i_o answer_v 1._o it_o be_v not_o the_o name_n that_o we_o contend_v about_o but_o the_o thing_n 2._o i_o have_v before_o prove_v it_o by_o the_o
