live_v forty_o year_n after_o the_o ceremony_n be_v cease_v i_o will_v have_v you_o have_v a_o care_n of_o the_o sabbath_n and_o delight_n in_o hear_v of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o meditate_v upon_o it_o and_o so_o forth_o and_o if_o any_o occasion_n come_v that_o you_o fall_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o your_o enemy_n pray_v that_o your_o flight_n be_v not_o in_o the_o winter_n nor_o on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n as_o who_o shall_v say_v if_o it_o be_v in_o the_o winter_n that_o will_v do_v hurt_v and_o be_v troublesome_a to_o your_o body_n and_o so_o if_o you_o fly_v upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n that_o will_v trouble_v your_o conscience_n if_o you_o regard_v god_n commandment_n and_o the_o good_a of_o your_o own_o conscience_n if_o you_o regard_v or_o fear_n god_n name_n it_o will_v grieve_v you_o to_o fly_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n whereby_o you_o shall_v be_v deprive_v of_o the_o congregation_n of_o god_n saint_n therefore_o pray_v that_o your_o flight_n be_v not_o upon_o that_o day_n intimate_v that_o it_o be_v moral_a for_o if_o it_o have_v be_v ceremonial_a he_o will_v not_o have_v wish_v they_o to_o pray_v that_o it_o may_v not_o be_v upon_o that_o day_n now_o whereas_o our_o saviour_n do_v so_o often_o condemn_v the_o pharisee_n in_o regard_n of_o their_o strictness_n of_o the_o sabbath_n it_o be_v not_o as_o if_o he_o do_v disallow_v the_o keep_n of_o it_o but_o they_o be_v foolish_o precise_a they_o strain_v at_o a_o gnat_n and_o swallow_v a_o camel_n they_o crowd_v out_o and_o regard_v not_o mercy_n and_o judgement_n they_o will_v not_o pull_v a_o poor_a beast_n out_o of_o a_o pit_n or_o relieve_v a_o poor_a man_n upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n they_o find_v fault_n that_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v help_v from_o death_n door_n by_o our_o saviour_n upon_o the_o sabbath_n this_o be_v their_o folly_n now_o our_o saviour_n do_v not_o condemn_v strict_a keep_n of_o the_o sabbath_n but_o he_o do_v condemn_v their_o superstition_n for_o ever_o since_o adam_n time_n it_o be_v lawful_a to_o do_v work_n of_o mercy_n on_o the_o sabbath_n it_o be_v lawful_a to_o pull_v a_o beast_n out_o of_o the_o pit_n and_o do_v work_n of_o mercy_n and_o necessity_n upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o whereas_o the_o law_n say_v 35.3_o the_o jew_n may_v not_o kindle_v a_o fire_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n if_o we_o be_v in_o their_o case_n we_o may_v not_o neither_o for_o they_o be_v in_o the_o wilderness_n in_o a_o hot_a country_n where_o they_o need_v no_o fire_n and_o have_v their_o food_n provide_v to_o their_o hand_n and_o be_v in_o a_o hot_a country_n if_o they_o kindle_v a_o fire_n it_o be_v out_o of_o wantonness_n but_o if_o it_o have_v be_v a_o cold_a country_n in_o adam_n time_n and_o abraham_n time_n and_o in_o all_o time_n it_o be_v lawful_a to_o kindle_v a_o fire_n reas_n 7_o again_o another_o argument_n be_v this_o the_o very_a heathen_a themselves_o have_v ever_o keep_v a_o sabbath_n day_n though_o they_o can_v not_o tell_v which_o the_o day_n be_v some_o keep_v the_o eight_o day_n and_o some_o the_o nine_o yet_o they_o ever_o keep_v a_o sabbath_n day_n yea_o it_o be_v certain_a many_o of_o the_o heathen_a themselves_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n after_o their_o manner_n alexandrinus_n a_o godly_a father_n that_o live_v but_o a_o little_a after_o christ_n say_v that_o the_o heathen_a do_v count_v the_o seven_o day_n a_o holy_a day_n and_o it_o be_v relate_v of_o alexander_n severus_n emperor_n of_o rome_n though_o he_o be_v a_o pagan_a and_o infidel_n yet_o every_o sabbath_n day_n he_o retire_v from_o his_o warlike_a affair_n and_o go_v up_o into_o the_o capitol_n to_o worship_v his_o god_n and_o it_o be_v report_v again_o in_o heathen_a history_n our_o boy_n go_v not_o to_o school_n upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n neither_o be_v humane_a art_n teach_v on_o that_o day_n but_o we_o have_v a_o rest_n upon_o that_o day_n nay_o some_o of_o the_o heathen_n tell_v we_o that_o they_o keep_v it_o from_o the_o creation_n therefore_o philo_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v the_o creation_n day_n and_o divers_a other_o poor_a people_n that_o never_o have_v scripture_n or_o prophet_n or_o minister_n among_o they_o but_o go_v mere_o by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n and_o what_o they_o have_v learn_v from_o their_o ancestor_n and_o father_n they_o do_v keep_v the_o sabbath_n day_n nay_o one_o of_o they_o say_v that_o on_o the_o seven_o day_n all_o the_o host_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n be_v finish_v therefore_o see_v the_o very_a heathen_a have_v learned_a to_o keep_v this_o day_n holy_a it_o be_v a_o evident_a argument_n that_o this_o be_v a_o moral_a commandment_n i_o conclude_v the_o proof_n of_o this_o point_n with_o the_o say_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n mat._n 5.18_o heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v pass_v away_o but_o not_o one_o jot_n or_o title_n of_o the_o law_n shall_v pass_v away_o mark_v our_o saviour_n say_v there_o that_o there_o shall_v not_o one_o jot_n or_o title_n of_o the_o decalogue_n pass_v away_o as_o for_o the_o ceremonial_a and_o judicial_a law_n they_o stand_v not_o still_o but_o the_o whole_a compass_n of_o they_o be_v remove_v the_o ceremonial_a law_n be_v quite_o and_o clean_o abolish_v and_o the_o judicial_a law_n in_o many_o particular_n therefore_o our_o saviour_n mean_v it_o not_o of_o those_o two_o law_n but_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o decalogue_n and_o he_o say_v heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v pass_v away_o before_o one_o jot_n of_o it_o shall_v pass_v away_o much_o less_o a_o whole_a branch_n be_v root_v out_o and_o gal._n 3.10_o the_o apostle_n say_v curse_v be_v every_o one_o that_o continue_v not_o in_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v write_v in_o this_o law_n to_o do_v they_o not_o only_o he_o that_o continue_v not_o in_o the_o first_o or_o second_o or_o three_o commandment_n but_o he_o that_o continue_v not_o in_o the_o four_o and_o five_o and_o all_o the_o rest_n and_o jam._n 2.10_o the_o apostle_n there_o say_v if_o a_o man_n shall_v keep_v the_o whole_a law_n of_o god_n and_o be_v guilty_a only_o in_o one_o point_n he_o be_v guilty_a of_o all_o suppose_v thou_o do_v keep_v the_o three_o first_o commandment_n and_o all_o the_o six_o last_o if_o thou_o keep_v not_o the_o four_o commandment_n thou_o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o breach_n of_o all_o the_o commandment_n i_o let_v this_o pass_v and_o come_v now_o to_o the_o last_o proposition_n which_o be_v this_o world_n that_o though_o the_o last_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v keep_v for_o the_o sabbath_n till_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n yet_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n that_o seven_o day_n be_v now_o the_o lord_n day_n and_o be_v so_o to_o continue_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n i_o frame_v it_o thus_o the_o change_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n to_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v not_o by_o ecclesiastical_a law_n or_o by_o the_o law_n of_o man_n or_o apostolical_a tradition_n but_o it_o be_v by_o the_o

therefore_o much_o more_o this_o solemn_a day_n again_o the_o judgement_n of_o all_o divine_n in_o all_o age_n have_v be_v concern_v a_o whole_a day_n i_o can_v instance_n in_o the_o father_n as_o in_o irenaeus_n who_o say_v we_o be_v to_o continue_v in_o the_o sabbath_n all_o the_o day_n long_o for_o the_o lord_n have_v require_v all_o the_o day_n to_o be_v keep_v holy_a unto_o he_o and_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n have_v always_o keep_v a_o whole_a day_n so_o saint_n austin_n say_v it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o we_o keep_v three_o or_o four_o hour_n of_o the_o day_n but_o that_o we_o rest_v the_o whole_a day_n and_o what_o rest_n not_o only_o to_o rest_v from_o our_o bodily_a labour_n for_o the_o beast_n keep_v this_o sabbath_n nor_o the_o rest_n of_o sport_n and_o pastime_n for_o that_o be_v the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o golden_a calf_n they_o eat_v and_o drink_v and_o rise_v up_o to_o play_v no_o but_o that_o thou_o may_v be_v vacant_a to_o god_n all_o the_o day_n in_o prayer_n and_o serve_v of_o he_o so_o in_o the_o council_n of_o mexicon_n there_o be_v a_o assembly_n of_o minister_n out_o of_o all_o nation_n in_o christendom_n and_o they_o ordain_v a_o canon_n concern_v the_o lord_n day_n we_o ordain_v that_o people_n keep_v the_o whole_a lord_n day_n holy_a and_o that_o they_o set_v themselves_o the_o whole_a day_n to_o pray_v to_o god_n and_o delight_n in_o god_n and_o hear_v his_o word_n and_o if_o a_o countryman_n servant_n break_v this_o day_n his_o punishment_n shall_v be_v to_o be_v beat_v with_o severe_a blow_n ictubus_fw-la gravioribus_fw-la be_v the_o very_a word_n of_o the_o council_n and_o if_o a_o lawyer_n offer_v to_o plead_v this_o day_n he_o shall_v not_o have_v the_o benefit_n of_o his_o plead_n or_o case_n and_o if_o a_o minister_n break_v this_o day_n he_o shall_v be_v excommunicate_v half_o a_o year_n and_o throw_v out_o of_o the_o church_n and_o shall_v not_o be_v receive_v into_o the_o church_n again_o but_o upon_o great_a humiliation_n this_o be_v the_o judgement_n of_o divine_n in_o all_o age_n and_o it_o be_v the_o observation_n of_o a_o reverend_a divine_a musculus_fw-la upon_o exod._n 20._o god_n do_v not_o say_v remember_v the_o sabbath_n to_o keep_v it_o holy_a he_o that_o keep_v it_o a_o hour_n or_o two_o keep_v it_o holy_a but_o remember_v the_o sabbath_n day_n to_o keep_v it_o holy_a he_o will_v have_v a_o day_n keep_v holy_a nay_o calvin_n who_o they_o take_v to_o be_v on_o their_o side_n to_o be_v a_o patron_n of_o their_o liberty_n he_o himself_o write_v upon_o deut._n 6._o upon_o these_o word_n remember_v the_o sabbath_n day_n he_o say_v we_o be_v to_o keep_v this_o day_n speak_v of_o himself_o and_o all_o the_o people_n of_o god_n we_o be_v to_o keep_v this_o day_n and_o not_o a_o part_n of_o it_o but_o all_o of_o it_o the_o second_o use_n be_v this_o we_o may_v hence_o see_v that_o sport_n and_o pastime_n be_v not_o use_v 2_o agreeable_a to_o the_o lord_n day_n for_o if_o the_o lord_n have_v forbid_v our_o weekly_a work_n on_o that_o day_n then_o sure_o he_o have_v forbid_v sport_n and_o pastime_n the_o reason_n be_v good_a first_o because_o our_o weekly_a work_n be_v thing_n command_v at_o other_o time_n now_o sport_n and_o pastime_n be_v never_o command_v by_o god_n but_o only_o permit_v now_o if_o thing_n command_v and_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a at_o sometime_o if_o these_o notwithstanding_o may_v not_o be_v do_v upon_o the_o lord_n day_n then_o much_o less_o must_v those_o be_v do_v that_o be_v permit_v only_o second_o because_o weekly_a work_n do_v less_o distract_v a_o man_n from_o god_n then_o sport_n and_o pastime_n i_o appeal_v to_o any_o man_n here_o present_a if_o he_o be_v not_o more_o heavenly_a and_o better_o employ_v and_o less_o distract_v from_o good_a thought_n and_o gracious_a affection_n when_o he_o be_v plough_v or_o sow_v or_o thresh_v then_o when_o he_o be_v dice_v and_o card_v sport_n and_o pastime_n beat_v a_o man_n further_o off_o from_o religion_n and_o let_v a_o man_n go_v to_o prayer_n after_o sport_n and_o pastime_n he_o shall_v find_v himself_o more_o unfit_a and_o unaffected_a a_o great_a deal_n than_o he_o shall_v when_o he_o come_v from_o the_o work_n of_o his_o call_n now_o if_o those_o thing_n that_o do_v less_o distract_v from_o god_n worship_n and_o service_n be_v forbid_v upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n then_o sure_o much_o more_o th●se_a thing_n that_o do_v more_o distract_v must_v needs_o be_v forbid_v upon_o that_o day_n the_o end_n quae_fw-la deus_fw-la abscondit_fw-la ne_fw-la
