profanation_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n by_o sport_n and_o pastime_n or_o by_o servile_a work_n the_o lord_n inflict_v and_o execute_v many_o notorious_a and_o severe_a judgement_n as_o of_o late_o we_o

this_o instance_n god_n may_v punish_v the_o violation_n or_o profanation_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n by_o such_o sport_n or_o wake_v as_o be_v a_o breach_n of_o a_o human_a ordinance_n or_o
