solemn_a profession_n of_o the_o external_a worship_n of_o god_n upon_o that_o day_n in_o the_o public_a congregation_n the_o lord_n herein_o del_v most_o merciful_o with_o we_o in_o that_o he_o

which_o seven_o day_n be_v fetch_v from_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n do_v measure_v the_o length_n of_o all_o age_n and_o time_n the_o jew_n therefore_o be_v deceive_v and_o also_o those_o who_o together_o with_o ebion_n cerinthus_n and_o other_o superstitious_a observer_n of_o the_o sabbaoth_n do_v at_o this_o day_n require_v that_o seven_o day_n to_o be_v superstitious_o observe_v

beside_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o sabbaoth_n which_o come_v about_o every_o seven_o day_n there_o be_v other_o day_n appoint_v under_o the_o law_n to_o celebrate_v some_o of_o the_o benefit_n of_o god_n whereunto_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o add_v some_o other_o so_o it_o be_v to_o the_o same_o purpose_n and_o not_o to_o erect_v will-worship_n as_o be_v those_o two_o day_n name_v purim_n

yet_o two_o thing_n be_v here_o necessary_o to_o be_v take_v heed_n unto_o first_o that_o those_o day_n be_v very_o few_o lest_o that_o by_o such_o holy_a day_n a_o entry_n be_v open_v to_o idleness_n

of_o god_n it_o be_v meet_v that_o we_o lie_v open_a the_o commandment_n of_o the_o second_o which_o do_v contain_v our_o duty_n towards_o our_o neighbour_n &_o first_o we_o will_v deal_v with_o the_o

be_v comprehend_v both_o these_o from_o whence_o we_o be_v come_v and_o also_o those_o that_o issue_n from_o we_o together_o with_o our_o kinsfolk_n both_o by_o father_n and_o by_o mother_n our_o

by_o any_o other_o knot_n of_o duty_n 3_o the_o word_n honour_n contain_v three_o thing_n reverence_n obedience_n and_o thankfulness_n 6_o reverence_n be_v the_o acknowledgement_n &_o regard_n which_o be_v yield_v by_o the_o inferior_n unto_o the_o superior_n not_o only_o in_o body_n but_o also_o in_o mind_n so_o the_o son_n be_v bind_v to_o honour_n &_o reverence_v both_o his_o parent_n the_o

who_o hold_v that_o whatsoever_o please_v the_o prince_n aught_o to_o have_v the_o force_n of_o a_o law_n 9_o thankfulness_n do_v then_o manifest_v itself_o when_o as_o we_o do_v free_o acknowledge_v that_o we_o owe_v a_o duty_n unto_o all_o those_o of_o who_o we_o have_v receive_v any_o benefit_n and_o be_v ready_a to_o repay_v they_o again_o and_o that_o in_o full_a measure_n if_o we_o be_v

do_v stand_v in_o need_n of_o the_o help_n and_o support_v of_o their_o child_n 10_o even_o as_o honour_n be_v to_o be_v yield_v unto_o superior_n so_o on_o the_o other_o side_n those_o that_o be_v above_o other_o in_o degree_n be_v bind_v to_o perform_v their_o duty_n towards_o their_o inferior_n 11_o parent_n therefore_o must_v take_v the_o care_n of_o their_o child_n but_o so_o as_o they_o

these_o commandment_n the_o whole_a be_v to_o be_v understand_v and_o gather_v out_o of_o the_o part_n &_o from_o the_o outward_a act_n we_o be_v to_o reason_n unto_o the_o inward_a 9_o by_o the_o

of_o gascon_a principle_n upon_o the_o second_o commandment_n of_o god_n law_n xxx_o 1_o even_o as_o the_o acknowledge_v and_o inward_a worship_v of_o on_o god_n be_v especial_o in_o the_o first_o

any_o image_n thridlie_n he_o bring_v a_o twofolde_a reason_n of_o this_o commandment_n the_o one_o because_o he_o be_v the_o only_o eternal_a god_n and_o therefore_o can_v be_v represent_v by_o no_o

because_o it_o be_v contumelious_a both_o unto_o god_n and_o his_o creature_n 10_o and_o see_v that_o the_o temple_n or_o church_n of_o christian_n be_v ordain_v for_o the_o use_n of_o religion_n it_o
