three_o be_v a_o request_n for_o charitable_a construction_n which_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o second_o he_o have_v need_n of_o we_o need_v say_v nothing_o of_o the_o first_o and_o for_o the_o second_o it_o may_v be_v say_v first_o that_o though_o some_o have_v exceed_v in_o severity_n both_o for_o the_o doctrine_n and_o practice_n of_o the_o sabbath_n and_o yet_o i_o account_v not_o all_o to_o be_v

scandalous_a to_o the_o observer_n of_o their_o excess_n and_o there_o be_v more_o need_n that_o all_o the_o bishop_n of_o the_o land_n shall_v oppose_v this_o then_o that_o he_o shall_v set_v upon_o that_o in_o such_o sort_n as_o he_o do_v second_o for_o that_o he_o say_v of_o the_o sabbatarian_n heresy_n for_o the_o necessary_a observation_n of_o the_o old_a sabbath_n the_o way_n to_o withstand_v it_o be_v not_o as_o he_o do_v to_o take_v the_o title_n sabbath_n from_o the_o lord_n day_n and_o to_o shift_v it_o from_o the_o firm_a ground_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n and_o to_o make_v it_o stand_v so_o much_o upon_o mere_a tradition_n as_o he_o do_v nay_o so_o to_o give_v up_o that_o both_o title_n and_o text_n as_o he_o have_v do_v to_o the_o old_a sabbath_n be_v to_o
