A63997	The Christian Sabbath defended against a crying evil in these times of the antisabitarians of our age: wherein is shewed that the morality of the fourth Commandement is still in force to bind Christians unto the sanctification of the Sabbath day. Written by that learned assertor of the truth, William Twisse D.D. late prolocutor to the Assembly of Divines.	Twisse, William, 1578?-1646.; Lake, Arthur, 1569-1626. Theses de Sabbato.	1652 (1652)	Wing T3419; ESTC R222255	225,372	293

usual_a dance_n on_o the_o lord_n day_n yet_o some_o and_o they_o no_o small_a one_o as_o i_o have_v hear_v do_v profess_v they_o not_o otherwise_o to_o be_v allow_v then_o as_o they_o may_v be_v do_v

the_o introduction_n thereunto_o manife_v three_o ground_n whereupon_o they_o proceed_v to_o make_v that_o act._n 1_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o acceptable_a to_o god_n than_o his_o holy_a

out_o of_o his_o own_o parish_n about_o any_o sport_n or_o pastime_n whence_o i_o conclude_v that_o to_o come_v out_o of_o a_o man_n parish_n on_o the_o lord_n day_n about_o any_o sport_n or_o pastime_n be_v to_o profane_v the_o sabbath_n for_o to_o prevent_v the_o profanation_n of_o our_o christian_a sabbath_n and_o to_o maintain_v the_o sanctification_n thereof_o be_v this_o law_n make_v now_o to_o come_v out_o of_o a_o man_n own_o parish_n about_o what_o business_n soever_o no_o wise_a man_n will_v say_v that_o it_o be_v to_o profane_v the_o sabbath_n but_o according_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o business_n whereabout_o he_o come_v forth_o of_o his_o own_o parish_n so_o shall_v he_o be_v find_v either_o to_o profane_v the_o sabbath_n or_o not_o to_o profane_v it_o as_o for_o example_n for_o a_o man_n to_o come_v forth_o of_o his_o own_o parish_n to_o hear_v a_o sermon_n no_o man_n i_o think_v will_v say_v that_o it_o be_v to_o profane_v the_o sabbath_n in_o like_a manner_n to_o come_v forth_o of_o his_o own_o parish_n into_o a_o other_o parish_n to_o fetch_v a_o physician_n or_o surgeon_n in_o case_n of_o necessity_n no_o man_n will_v say_v that_o this_o be_v to_o profane_v the_o sabbath_n because_o the_o business_n about_o which_o he_o come_v be_v not_o to_o profane_v the_o sabbath_n but_o for_o a_o man_n to_o come_v out_o of_o his_o own_o parish_n to_o buy_v or_o sell_v to_o trade_n or_o traffic_n no_o necessity_n urge_v thereunto_o this_o be_v to_o profane_v the_o sabbath_n because_o in_o such_o sort_n to_o trade_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v to_o profane_v the_o sabbath_n in_o like_a sort_n for_o a_o man_n to_o come_v out_o of_o his_o own_o parish_n about_o any_o sport_n or_o pastime_n be_v therefore_o to_o profane_a the_o sabbath_n in_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o parliament_n because_o the_o keep_n and_o perform_v of_o these_o sport_n and_o pastime_n be_v a_o manifest_a profanation_n of_o the_o sabbath_n in_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o king_n and_o his_o parliament_n now_o if_o all_o sport_n and_o pastime_n on_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v a_o profanation_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n our_o christian_a sabbath_n it_o follow_v that_o may-game_n and_o moricing_n and_o dance_n at_o such_o time_n usual_a be_v also_o a_o manifest_a profanation_n of_o the_o sabbath_n and_o hererin_o we_o speak_v as_o i_o conceive_v in_o his_o majesty_n
