but_o on_o some_o other_o in_o the_o week_n than_o be_v that_o computation_n break_v and_o yet_o the_o sabbath_n right_o keep_v so_o have_v christ_n rise_v on_o the_o last_o day_n of_o the_o week_n

its_o fit_a the_o sabbath_n shall_v wait_v on_o he_o and_o not_o he_o on_o the_o sabbath_n and_o therefore_o as_o he_o choose_v the_o first_o day_n to_o rise_v on_o as_o likewise_o the_o morning_n
