A91155	A briefe polemicall dissertation, concerning the true time of the inchoation and determination of the Lordsday-Sabbath. Wherein is clearly and irrefragably manifested by Scripture, reason, authorities, in all ages till this present: that the Lordsday begins and ends at evening; and ought to be solemnized from evening to evening: against the novel errours, mistakes of such, who groundlesly assert; that it begins and ends at midnight, or day-breaking; and ought to be sanctified from midnight to midnight, or morning to morning: whose arguments are here examined, refuted as unsound, absurd, frivolous. Compiled in the Tower of London, and now published, for the information, reformation of all contrary judgment or practise. By William Prynne of Swainswick Esq;.	Prynne, William, 1600-1669.	1654 (1654)	Wing P3916; Thomason E814_11	82,955	107

if_o i_o right_o conjecture_v 9_o it_o be_v confess_v by_o all_o that_o in_o the_o scripture_n and_o israelite_n account_n all_o day_n begin_v at_o evening_n as_o i_o have_v prove_v 9_o at_o large_a before_o it_o be_v likewise_o most_o certain_a that_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n be_v israelite_n do_v ever_o constant_o observe_v the_o scripture_n and_o their_o own_o national_a computation_n of_o the_o beginning_n and_o end_n of_o day_n it_o be_v that_o which_o christ_n himself_o and_o all_o the_o evangelist_n follow_v as_o i_o have_v evidence_v at_o large_a in_o the_o three_o and_o five_o conclusion_n neither_o be_v it_o any_o way_n probable_a that_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n or_o the_o primitive-church_n and_o christian_n who_o be_v in_o all_o thing_n guide_v by_o they_o do_v or_o will_v alter_v this_o their_o national_a and_o divine_a beginning_n or_o conclude_v of_o day_n there_o be_v no_o ground_n or_o reason_n for_o it_o for_o aught_o that_o yet_o appear_v if_o therefore_o the_o lordsday_n be_v institute_v and_o consecrate_v for_o a_o sabbath_n by_o christ_n himself_o as_o many_o or_o by_o his_o apostle_n as_o most_o or_o by_o the_o primitive_a church_n

mischief_n therefore_o be_v but_o a_o pretence_n second_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o god_n himself_o command_v his_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n and_o other_o solemn_a fâ—stivals_n to_o be_v solemnize_v from_o evening_n to_o evening_n exod._n 12._o 18._o levit._n 23._o 32._o god_n therefore_o infinite_o wise_a foresee_v better_a than_o the_o best_a wise_a holy_a and_o most_o prudent_a christian_a magistrate_n or_o minister_n all_o inconvenience_n abuse_n that_o may_v profane_v his_o sabbath_n and_o what_o beginning_n conclusion_n of_o it_o will_v best_o prevent_v all_o profanation_n and_o

against_o this_o present_a objection_n that_o this_o beginning_n conclude_v the_o lordsday_n at_o evening_n even_o in_o god_n account_n and_o so_o in_o verity_n itself_o be_v least_o inconvenient_a least_o mischievous_a and_o the_o best_a of_o all_o the_o three_o to_o prevent_v all_o profanation_n abuse_n of_o the_o day_n therefore_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v embrace_v as_o that_o which_o god_n himself_o have_v prescribe_v for_o the_o best_a the_o meet_a of_o all_o other_o three_o i_o have_v former_o prove_v that_o this_o beginning_n of_o it_o at_o evening_n do_v best_a prepare_v man_n for_o its_o sanctification_n that_o it_o prevent_v more_o profanation_n abuse_n of_o it_o commit_v on_o and_o occasion_v by_o disorder_n of_o all_o sort_n on_o the_o saturday_n night_n as_o we_o false_o term_v it_o than_o it_o can_v possible_o produce_v on_o lordsday_n evening_n to_o which_o i_o shall_v add_v that_o it_o likewise_o excuse_v all_o husbandman_n tradesman_n and_o other_o from_o be_v sabbath-breaker_n who_o in_o the_o winter_n quarter_n rise_v early_o to_o their_o weekly_a labour_n on_o monday_n morning_n some_o three_o or_o four_o hour_n before_o daybreak_n who_o shall_v be_v sabbath_n breaker_n in_o a_o high_a degree_n if_o the_o sabbath_n or_o lordsday_n end_v not_o till_o day_n break_v as_o some_o objector_n pretend_v therefore_o i_o may_v conclude_v that_o this_o beginning_n of_o the_o lordsday_n at_o evening_n make_v more_o for_o the_o sanctification_n of_o the_o day_n and_o prevent_v more_o inconvenience_n then_o that_o at_o morning_n and_o so_o ought_v to_o be_v retain_v four_o this_o beginning_n and_o conclude_v the_o lordsday_n at_o evening_n can_v any_o way_n produce_v such_o effect_n of_o licentiousness_n and_o profaneness_n on_o lordsday_n evening_n as_o be_v suggest_v since_o it_o put_v no_o period_n to_o the_o lordsday_n or_o its_o duty_n till_o after_o sunset_n when_o the_o star_n begin_v to_o shine_v which_o be_v not_o till_o eight_o or_o

then_o to_o sport_n or_o pastime_n and_o about_o six_o a_o clock_n in_o the_o winter_n quarter_n after_o which_o all_o civil_a orderly_a parent_n master_n though_o not_o religious_a permit_v not_o

read_v the_o scripture_n and_o godly_a book_n catechise_v their_o family_n prayer_n meditation_n and_o such_o like_a holy_a family_n duty_n answerable_a to_o the_o piety_n they_o profess_v and_o the_o

than_o that_o at_o morning_n not_o simple_o in_o itself_o but_o in_o regard_n of_o man_n abuse_v it_o which_o yet_o i_o deny_v yet_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o therefore_o the_o day_n ought_v then_o to_o begin_v since_o the_o abuse_n of_o any_o doctrine_n through_o the_o corruption_n of_o man_n make_v not_o the_o doctrine_n less_o true_a and_o since_o inconvenienâ—es_n must_v not_o can_v alter_v

doctrine_n wherefore_o my_o conclusion_n remain_v still_o firm_a notwithstanding_o this_o objection_n the_o six_o and_o last_o objection_n be_v this_o that_o many_o godly_a learned_a divine_n of_o late_a and_o present_a time_n have_v in_o their_o 6._o writing_n sermon_n deliver_v this_o opinion_n for_o a_o truth_n that_o the_o lordsday_n begin_v and_o end_v at_o morning_n not_o at_o evening_n because_o christ_n rise_v not_o till_o the_o morning_n and_o it_o be_v now_o the_o common_a receive_a opinion_n practice_n of_o all_o our_o divine_n and_o most_o private_a christian_n therefore_o questionless_a it_o be_v the_o truth_n and_o dangerous_a to_o alter_v it_o in_o thesis_n or_o practice_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o it_o be_v true_a many_o reverend_a holy_a learned_a late_a divine_n who_o name_v for_o honour_n sake_n 1._o i_o shall_v forbear_v to_o mention_v have_v in_o their_o public_a writing_n and_o many_o more_o in_o their_o sermon_n deliver_v this_o opinion_n yet_o many_o of_o they_o only_o dubious_o with_o a_o *_o 1._o it_o seem_v or_o it_o be_v probable_a or_o likely_a not_o resolute_o and_o that_o their_o present_a practice_n be_v answerable_a thereunto_o but_o yet_o all_o the_o learned_a godly_a christian_n in_o all_o former_a age_n have_v hold_v practise_v the_o contrary_a as_o i_o have_v prove_v and_o some_o godly_a eminent_a divine_n among_o we_o now_o conclude_v in_o judgement_n with_o they_o the_o judgement_n therefore_o and_o practise_v of_o all_o age_n church_n from_o the_o apostle_n time_n till_o now_o shall_v rather_o sway_v the_o balance_n of_o this_o controversy_n than_o these_o few_o late_a divine_n though_o learned_a and_o judicious_a second_o most_o of_o those_o godly_a learned_a man_n have_v take_v up_o this_o opinion_n and_o publish_v it_o to_o other_o upon_o wolphius_n his_o authority_n and_o ground_n without_o any_o full_a examination_n or_o serious_a study_n of_o the_o point_n as_o appear_v by_o this_o that_o they_o do_v but_o light_o touch_v it_o in_o the_o by_o and_o so_o away_o not_o serious_o or_o peremptory_o resolve_v it_o ground_v themselves_o upon_o such_o reason_n as_o no_o way_n prove_v their_o conclusion_n and_o in_o truth_n be_v mere_o fall_v in_o that_o sense_n they_o understand_v they_o as_o i_o have_v large_o manifest_v in_o the_o premise_n therefore_o their_o authority_n be_v not_o so_o much_o to_o be_v regard_v three_o in_o all_o dispute_n we_o must_v not_o so_o much_o observe_v what_o and_o who_o the_o author_n produce_v be_v as_o what_o their_o proof_n and_o reason_n be_v if_o these_o good_a learned_a man_n argument_n reason_n be_v unsound_a as_o i_o have_v manifest_v they_o no_o matter_n what_o their_o opinion_n life_n or_o practice_n be_v since_o the_o learned_a
