about_o this_o matter_n of_o play_n and_o pastime_n and_o i_o mean_v not_o to_o be_v a_o stickler_n between_o they_o at_o this_o time_n further_o than_o my_o text_n do_v thrust_v i_o in_o whether_o

under_o the_o protection_n of_o christian_a liberty_n why_o i_o you_o say_v be_v it_o not_o a_o part_n of_o our_o christian_a liberty_n to_o use_v without_o scruple_n of_o conscience_n indifferent_a

liberty_n more_o than_o christian_a yea_o more_o than_o civil_a for_o even_o the_o civilian_n themselves_o if_o i_o be_v not_o deceive_v do_v define_v their_o liberty_n thus_o liberty_n say_v they_o be_v a_o natural_a power_n whereby_o a_o man_n do_v what_o he_o will_v so_o far_o as_o the_o law_n do_v permit_v and_o so_o christian_a liberty_n be_v a_o supernatural_a power_n obtain_v by_o christ_n whereby_o a_o christian_a do_v what_o he_o will_v according_a to_o his_o christian_a rule_n or_o according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o god_n word_n we_o must_v therefore_o by_o this_o doctrine_n learn_v to_o abhor_v that_o abuse_n of_o liberty_n and_o unrulinesse_n which_o we_o see_v to_o be_v afoot_a in_o these_o day_n even_o among_o christian_n themselves_o on_o the_o other_o side_n this_o
