and_o freewill_n then_o the_o most_o part_n of_o the_o lutheran_n who_o differ_v very_o little_a from_o calvin_n in_o these_o point_n must_v be_v calvinist_n too_o nor_o be_v these_o point_n hold_v only_o by_o protestant_n but_o many_o also_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n hold_v the_o same_o as_o witness_v the_o jansenist_n and_o also_o the_o order_n of_o the_o dominican_n who_o come_v very_o

and_o because_o he_o be_v carress_v and_o feast_v by_o they_o wherever_o he_o come_v as_o the_o doctor_n will_v have_v it_o as_o if_o the_o lord_n primate_n have_v no_o other_o perfection_n but_o

that_o by_o the_o four_o commandment_n it_o be_v god_n perpetual_a will_n to_o have_v one_o solemn_a and_o stand_a day_n in_o the_o week_n for_o people_n to_o meet_v together_o to_o worship_n and_o serve_v he_o second_o that_o this_o day_n though_o it_o be_v not_o the_o seven_o day_n from_o the_o creation_n yet_o be_v still_o the_o christian_a sabbath_n or_o day_n of_o rest_n be_v still_o the_o

daily_a business_n and_o also_o give_v ourselves_o whole_o to_o heavenly_a exercise_n of_o god_n true_a religion_n and_o service_n and_o therefore_o this_o be_v the_o express_a word_n and_o sense_n of_o this_o homily_n that_o we_o may_v not_o make_v it_o contradict_v itself_o the_o passage_n which_o the_o doctor_n rely_v so_o much_o upon_o must_v have_v this_o reasonable_a construction_n viz._n that_o the_o maker_n thereof_o though_o he_o suppose_v that_o we_o christian_n be_v not_o oblige_v to_o the_o precise_a keep_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n after_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o jew_n yet_o notwithstanding_o whatsoever_o be_v find_v in_o this_o commandment_n appertain_v to_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n etc._n etc._n as_o most_o just_a and_o needful_a for_o the_o set_n forth_o of_o god_n glory_n aught_o to_o be_v retain_v and_o keep_v of_o all_o christian_a people_n which_o word_n must_v be_v understand_v in_o a_o clean_a contrary_a sense_n to_o the_o doctor_n be_v viz._n that_o the_o

otherwise_o to_o what_o purpose_n serve_v these_o word_n before_o recite_v viz._n thus_o it_o may_v plain_o appear_v that_o god_n will_n and_o commandment_n be_v to_o have_v one_o solemn_a and_o

so_o that_o must_v be_v one_o day_n in_o seven_o by_o a_o immutable_a moral_a institution_n or_o else_o the_o church_n may_v if_o they_o have_v so_o please_v have_v celebrate_v the_o lord_n resurrection_n not_o as_o the_o homily_n say_v on_o one_o stand_a day_n of_o the_o week_n but_o only_o at_o easter_n and_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n according_a to_o the_o doctor_n not_o tie_v we_o to_o observe_v one_o day_n in_o seven_o if_o this_o commandment_n of_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n or_o seven_o day_n oblige_v none_o but_o the_o jew_n then_o the_o primitive_a church_n may_v if_o they_o have_v please_v have_v quite_o leave_v off_o set_v aside_o any_o particular_a day_n of_o the_o week_n for_o god_n service_n and_o have_v think_v it_o sufficient_a to_o have_v keep_v one_o day_n

please_v with_o i_o shall_v not_o dispute_v but_o sure_o i_o be_o that_o the_o church_n of_o england_n maintain_v no_o such_o doctrine_n but_o the_o doctor_n because_o he_o think_v the_o homily_n not_o enough_o of_o his_o side_n undertake_v to_o show_v we_o upon_o what_o ground_n the_o lord_n day_n
stand_v in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n at_o the_o time_n of_o the_o make_v this_o homily_n and_o therefore_o he_o have_v put_v down_o the_o proem_n of_o a_o act_n of_o parliament_n of_o the_o
