this_o toleration_n of_o sport_n and_o pastime_n on_o the_o lord_n day_n do_v no_o more_o disprove_v the_o morality_n of_o the_o sabbath_n nor_o no_o more_o prove_v sport_n and_o pastime_n on_o the_o

which_o tend_v more_o to_o edification_n and_o that_o be_v whether_o god_n consecrate_v a_o seven_o day_n to_o himself_o and_o command_v a_o weekly_a sabbath_n to_o be_v sanctify_v whether_o this_o

which_o god_n have_v express_o command_v to_o be_v keep_v holy_a but_o our_o weekly_a sabbath_n yet_o all_o hold_n that_o more_o time_n shall_v be_v allot_v to_o his_o service_n and_o the_o equity_n
