which_o be_v taxatio_fw-la diet_n 1._o 1._o for_o the_o first_o we_o see_v that_o reason_n consent_v to_o that_o which_o solomon_n say_v preach_v 8._o 6._o that_o there_o be_v a_o appoint_a time_n for_o every_o action_n under_o the_o sun_n but_o especial_o 〈◊〉_d it_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o weight_n and_o serious_a business_n indeed_o then_o reason_n will_v that_o we_o shall_v make_v special_a choice_n of_o a_o time_n when_o seclude_v all_o other_o thing_n we_o may_v intend_v only_o and_o whole_o to_o it_o alone_o for_o if_o we_o shall_v not_o have_v a_o certain_a time_n appoint_v to_o we_o we_o of_o ourselves_o be_v so_o careless_a that_o we_o will_v make_v account_n of_o very_a few_o day_n or_o none_o at_o all_o to_o sanctify_v unto_o the_o lord_n worship_n this_o matter_n then_o of_o god_n worship_n and_o religion_n be_v a_o matter_n of_o our_o soul_n be_v the_o most_o weighty_a and_o serious_a business_n that_o can_v be_v in_o as_o much_o as_o the_o soul_n be_v the_o worthy_a part_n of_o we_o and_o therefore_o it_o concern_v the_o freehold_n of_o our_o soul_n so_o near_o that_o if_o we_o neglect_v or_o set_v light_n by_o it_o agitur_fw-la de_fw-la anima_fw-la our_o soul_n be_v in_o jeopardy_n but_o if_o we_o set_v light_a of_o our_o soul_n which_o be_v so_o precious_a a_o thing_n be_v worth_a look_v to_o yet_o in_o another_o regard_n it_o be_v a_o weighty_a duty_n and_o therefore_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v careful_a of_o it_o because_o god_n be_v worthy_a of_o this_o service_n and_o duty_n which_o be_v opus_fw-la sabati_n wherefore_o indeed_o there_o be_v no_o time_n of_o our_o life_n but_o that_o we_o shall_v think_v chief_o of_o this_o as_o the_o 〈◊〉_d hold_v that_o a_o man_n ought_v perpetual_o to_o be_v present_a and_o conversant_a with_o god_n and_o in_o our_o word_n send_v up_o short_a prayer_n and_o praise_n to_o god_n and_o that_o this_o be_v a_o bind_a duty_n daily_o to_o be_v perform_v it_o be_v agreeable_a to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n numb_a 28._o which_o be_v show_v in_o their_o daily_a sacrifice_n every_o morning_n and_o evening_n offer_v oblation_n and_o incense_n to_o god_n but_o who_o be_v it_o that_o be_v able_a all_o the_o day_n of_o his_o life_n night_n and_o day_n to_o intend_v his_o business_n as_o he_o ought_v for_o this_o belong_v as_o a_o duty_n not_o only_o unto_o the_o jew_n but_o unto_o every_o christian_a now_o see_v this_o one_o business_n be_v to_o be_v intend_v above_o all_o other_o and_o every_o thing_n be_v then_o best_a order_v when_o we_o appropriate_v and_o apply_v the_o time_n and_o our_o study_n only_o and_o whole_o to_o it_o as_o the_o proverb_n be_v quod_fw-la unice_n id_fw-la unum_fw-la quod_fw-la solicit_v id_fw-la solum_fw-la agas_fw-la for_o this_o be_v the_o wisdom_n of_o man_n in_o matter_n of_o this_o life_n then_o we_o must_v needs_o hearken_v to_o the_o counsel_n of_o the_o prophet_n psal._n 46._o 10._o desistite_fw-la be_v still_o or_o leave_v off_o other_o thing_n that_o you_o may_v know_v i_o be_o the_o lord_n etc._n etc._n and_o to_o the_o advice_n of_o the_o apostle_n 1_o cor._n 7._o 5._o we_o may_v leave_v off_o other_o matter_n and_o must_v consent_v so_o to_o do_v for_o a_o time_n that_o the_o more_o full_o and_o whole_o we_o may_v be_v give_v to_o prayer_n and_o fast_v this_o be_v call_v of_o some_o induciae_fw-la seculo_fw-la a_o truce_n take_v with_o the_o world_n for_o a_o time_n that_o not_o be_v trouble_v with_o the_o affair_n thereof_o we_o may_v only_o set_v before_o we_o as_o much_o as_o our_o weak_a nature_n can_v our_o duty_n in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n which_o be_v our_o sanctification_n therefore_o god_n appoint_v to_o this_o spiritual_a work_n a_o time_n at_o large_a that_o be_v appoint_v some_o time_n in_o which_o only_a and_o whole_o adam_n by_o necessity_n be_v enjoy_v to_o this_o work_n wherefore_o by_o all_o conveyance_n of_o reason_n by_o a_o much_o great_a necessity_n must_v we_o know_v that_o we_o also_o must_v have_v a_o time_n at_o large_a for_o this_o business_n 2._o 2._o the_o second_o point_n be_v that_o it_o be_v necessary_a not_o only_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o time_n at_o large_a that_o be_v some_o time_n of_o our_o day_n but_o also_o a_o certain_a set_a time_n or_o day_n appoint_v for_o it_o for_o otherwise_o god_n shall_v have_v slender_a service_n or_o scarce_o any_o at_o all_o for_o if_o it_o be_v leave_v at_o our_o liberty_n we_o will_v take_v liberty_n to_o serve_v he_o when_o we_o listen_v and_o when_o we_o can_v intend_v it_o and_o when_o we_o have_v nothing_o else_o to_o do_v therefore_o one_o say_v well_o according_a to_o st._n peter_n christiana_n libert_n as_o pallium_fw-la est_fw-la pessimis_fw-la moribus_fw-la and_o i_o refer_v i_o to_o your_o judgement_n how_o well_o god_n will_v be_v serve_v if_o there_o be_v no_o time_n certain_o appoint_v see_v this_o which_o be_v set_v down_o be_v so_o ill_o keep_v those_o therefore_o which_o urge_v christian_a liberty_n and_o will_v not_o have_v a_o set_v certain_a day_n but_o every_o day_n a_o sabath_n they_o will_v have_v god_n stand_v at_o that_o portion_n of_o time_n and_o service_n which_o man_n devotion_n and_o liberality_n will_v afford_v this_o than_o will_v be_v the_o inconvenience_n of_o uncertainty_n in_o this_o matter_n that_o perpetuum_fw-la sabatum_fw-la &_o jejunium_fw-la will_v prove_v none_o at_o all_o and_o therefore_o god_n see_v it_o necessary_a that_o we_o must_v have_v a_o set_v and_o a_o certain_a time_n and_o in_o this_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n agree_v with_o the_o law_n of_o god_n for_o the_o heathen_a have_v their_o statae_fw-la feriae_fw-la set_v and_o appoint_v holy_a day_n and_o the_o hebrew_n call_v their_o holy-day_n by_o the_o name_n of_o mogne_n which_o be_v a_o staid_a certain_a time_n still_o unmovable_a not_o at_o random_n but_o set_v down_o and_o appoint_v firm_a and_o perpetual_a 3._o 3._o now_o we_o be_v come_v to_o the_o three_o point_n that_o it_o must_v be_v one_o of_o the_o seven_o in_o the_o week_n which_o come_v not_o by_o nature_n light_n but_o by_o god_n ordinance_n his_o word_n set_v it_o down_o therefore_o be_v it_o tell_v adam_n that_o he_o shall_v tell_v it_o to_o the_o posterity_n to_o come_v by_o which_o mean_v the_o gentill_n come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o it_o and_o hold_v it_o by_o tradition_n for_o in_o their_o book_n we_o shall_v plain_o see_v it_o lucianus_n testify_v that_o as_o the_o jew_n keep_v their_o holiday_n in_o which_o they_o worship_v god_n on_o the_o saturday_n the_o turk_n on_o the_o friday_n the_o egyptian_n on_o the_o thursday_n the_o assyrian_n on_o the_o wednesday_n the_o persian_n on_o the_o tuesday_n the_o grecian_n on_o the_o monday_n and_o christian_n now_o do_v keep_v their_o day_n of_o worship_n the_o sunday_n and_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n so_o that_o in_o all_o quarter_n and_o part_n of_o the_o earth_n every_o day_n and_o part_n of_o time_n be_v keep_v as_o a_o set_a day_n of_o divine_a worship_n and_o for_o the_o seven_o day_n we_o shall_v see_v that_o the_o pythagorean_n have_v receive_v a_o glimmer_n of_o this_o knowledge_n for_o they_o call_v the_o number_n of_o 7_o numerum_fw-la quietis_fw-la and_o the_o number_n hallow_v of_o god_n and_o the_o divine_a number_n or_o god_n number_n which_o they_o have_v no_o doubt_n not_o by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n and_o reason_n but_o by_o tradition_n from_o their_o elder_n and_o so_o deliver_v it_o to_o their_o posterity_n it_o be_v strange_a which_o eusebius_n record_v out_o of_o two_o heathenish_a writer_n 13._o de_fw-fr preparatione_fw-la evangelii_n the_o one_o of_o linus_n verse_n 2._o that_o god_n make_v and_o finish_v all_o thing_n the_o seven_o day_n the_o other_o of_o hesiod_n we_o agree_v to_o that_o say_v that_o therefore_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v the_o lord_n holiday_n and_o on_o the_o seven_o day_n therefore_o the_o gentile_n call_v on_o their_o god_n and_o have_v their_o meeting_n in_o it_o and_o call_v the_o number_n of_o 7_o minerva_n by_o the_o name_n of_o their_o god_n macrobius_n affirm_v that_o the_o gentile_n do_v mean_a by_o pan_n and_o jano_n and_o all_o other_o name_n of_o god_n only_o the_o great_a god_n apollo_n as_o their_o chief_a god_n who_o they_o serve_v the_o seven_o day_n but_o this_o be_v our_o rule_n most_o plain_o reveal_v from_o god_n word_n that_o it_o be_v his_o will_n that_o we_o shall_v keep_v the_o seven_o day_n holy_a for_o see_v all_o the_o day_n be_v he_o he_o shall_v have_v do_v no_o injury_n if_o he_o have_v appoint_v and_o dedicate_v all_o the_o day_n of_o the_o week_n to_o be_v spend_v and_o employ_v on_o his_o service_n yet_o he_o have_v not_o do_v so_o st._n augustine_n say_v that_o if_o god_n have_v
