not_o wicked_a exercise_n do_v not_o this_o waist_n and_o pour_v forth_o time_n over_o lavish_o or_o can_v that_o man_n have_v so_o much_o rest_n and_o quiet_a or_o so_o much_o fitness_n &_o opportunity_n to_o do_v good_a to_o his_o soul_n as_o his_o wise_a care_n in_o cut_v of_o these_o needless_a recreation_n or_o vexation_n rather_o will_v have_v afford_v he_o for_o these_o vain_a pleasure_n be_v not_o alone_o mischievous_a hinderer_n of_o this_o thrift_n in_o that_o they_o consume_v the_o very_a hour_n themselves_o but_o as_o much_o or_o more_o also_o in_o that_o they_o dissettle_v the_o heart_n and_o pull_v the_o affection_n out_o of_o joint_n so_o that_o a_o man_n be_v drive_v to_o take_v as_o much_o pain_n to_o set_v his_o heart_n to_o a_o good_a exercise_n as_o will_v well_o have_v dispatch_v the_o duty_n have_v he_o not_o be_v thus_o unfit_a now_o what_o a_o miserable_a loss_n be_v it_o when_o a_o man_n be_v rob_v of_o his_o time_n and_o of_o his_o heart_n both_o at_o once_o and_o by_o both_o keep_v from_o read_v pray_v meditate_v examine_v his_o heart_n or_o any_o such_o good_a exercise_n for_o his_o soul_n advantage_n wherefore_o if_o any_o man_n will_v so_o prevent_v these_o vain_a &_o foolish_a sport_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o spoil_v he_o of_o his_o heart_n and_o hour_n let_v he_o observe_v these_o two_o rule_n in_o his_o sport_n and_o then_o he_o shall_v do_v well_o in_o these_o respect_n first_o this_o be_v presuppose_v that_o he_o do_v not_o use_v any_o recreation_n but_o those_o which_o he_o can_v prove_v to_o be_v in_o themselves_o lawful_a first_o i_o say_v for_o the_o begin_n of_o recreation_n let_v every_o man_n know_v that_o recreation_n must_v follow_v labour_n for_o the_o most_o part_n or_o if_o at_o any_o time_n it_o go_v before_o it_o it_o must_v be_v very_o little_a only_o to_o fit_v one_o for_o labour_n the_o lord_n allow_v a_o man_n no_o sport_n though_o never_o so_o lawful_a in_o itself_o until_o such_o time_n as_o his_o body_n or_o mind_n do_v stand_v in_o need_n of_o it_o chief_o when_o they_o have_v be_v busy_v in_o some_o such_o honest_a affair_n as_o by_o weary_v they_o have_v make_v they_o unfit_a for_o further_a labour_n so_o that_o they_o must_v again_o be_v fit_v thereto_o by_o recreation_n until_o painstaking_a have_v make_v the_o body_n or_o mind_n not_o so_o well_o able_a to_o take_v pain_n there_o be_v no_o allowance_n ordinary_o for_o recreation_n all_o our_o sport_n and_o recreation_n if_o we_o will_v use_v they_o well_o i_o speak_v of_o those_o which_o be_v lawful_a must_v be_v to_o our_o body_n or_o mind_n as_o the_o mower_n whetstone_n or_o rifle_n be_v to_o his_o since_o to_o sharpen_v it_o when_o it_o grow_v dull_a he_o that_o when_o his_o since_o be_v dull_v will_v not_o upon_o a_o desire_n to_o do_v more_o work_n take_v time_n to_o whet_v it_o shall_v cut_v less_o and_o with_o more_o pain_n &_o more_o unhandsome_o than_o he_o need_v to_o do_v so_o he_o that_o when_o his_o body_n or_o mind_n be_v tire_v or_o heavy_a will_v not_o use_v some_o honest_a refresh_n shall_v do_v less_o and_o with_o less_o dexterity_n than_o he_o may_v but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n if_o the_o mower_n shall_v do_v nothing_o from_o morning_n to_o noon_n or_o from_o noon_n to_o night_n but_o whet_v whet_v whet_v rub_v his_o since_o he_o will_v both_o mar_v the_o since_o and_o be_v count_v a_o idle_a workman_n also_o for_o lose_v his_o day_n work_n so_o he_o that_o will_v run_v after_o the_o most_o honest_a delight_n when_o neither_o the_o weariness_n of_o his_o body_n nor_o heaviness_n of_o his_o mind_n require_v the_o same_o but_o only_o upon_o a_o fond_a lust_n or_o long_v after_o they_o shall_v in_o time_n destroy_v his_o wit_n and_o strength_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a season_n marvellous_a unthriftilie_o misspend_v his_o time_n therefore_o let_v not_o a_o man_n begin_v the_o day_n with_o play_n though_o never_o so_o lawful_a unless_o his_o body_n or_o mind_n require_v some_o necessary_a exercise_n to_o make_v it_o more_o apt_a for_o his_o call_n he_o that_o set_v into_o the_o day_n sport_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o go_v through_o it_o either_o lumpish_o or_o sinful_o much_o more_o if_o he_o spend_v all_o the_o day_n from_o morning_n to_o night_n in_o play_v let_v it_o be_v never_o so_o much_o holy_a day_n or_o have_v he_o what_o other_o excuse_n he_o wil._n this_o rule_n be_v for_o the_o begin_n of_o sport_n the_o second_o be_v for_o the_o measure_n and_o continuance_n of_o they_o where_o this_o be_v a_o general_a and_o a_o firm_a direction_n that_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o a_o man_n in_o a_o ordinary_a course_n to_o spend_v more_o time_n in_o any_o pastime_n upon_o any_o day_n then_o in_o religious_a exercise_n i_o mean_v chief_o private_a religious_a exercise_n i_o say_v it_o be_v utter_o unlawful_a to_o bestow_v a_o large_a time_n any_o day_n upon_o the_o most_o lawful_a delight_n then_o in_o private_a religious_a exercise_n or_o at_o least_o in_o a_o customable_a course_n so_o to_o do_v this_o be_v plain_o prove_v by_o that_o which_o christ_n speak_v to_o we_o say_v first_o 6.33_o seek_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n and_o the_o righteousness_n thereof_o you_o see_v here_o command_v to_o prefer_v the_o seek_n of_o heaven_n before_o any_o other_o thing_n whatsoever_o to_o let_v that_o have_v the_o chief_a place_n in_o our_o soul_n and_o in_o our_o life_n now_o he_o that_o first_o seek_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n can_v bestow_v more_o time_n in_o sport_n of_o any_o sort_n then_o in_o those_o thing_n which_o do_v direct_o make_v for_o the_o obtain_n of_o eternal_a life_n and_o that_o righteousness_n which_o will_v bring_v one_o thereunto_o such_o as_o be_v hear_v and_o read_v the_o word_n pray_v meditate_v examine_v the_o heart_n confer_v and_o the_o like_a and_o sure_o this_o be_v a_o most_o equal_a thing_n that_o the_o most_o needful_a duty_n shall_v have_v the_o most_o time_n bestow_v upon_o it_o yea_o &_o it_o be_v a_o most_o easy_a rule_n to_o all_o sort_n of_o man_n that_o have_v season_v their_o heart_n with_o the_o true_a fear_n of_o god_n for_o if_o a_o man_n calling_n lie_v in_o bodily_a work_n than_o the_o very_a exercise_n of_o religion_n be_v a_o refresh_n to_o his_o body_n in_o that_o he_o do_v for_o the_o space_n while_o they_o continue_v desist_v from_o his_o bodily_a labour_n and_o his_o call_n afford_v sufficient_a stir_v of_o the_o body_n for_o health_n so_o that_o if_o he_o be_v religious_o mind_v and_o have_v indeed_o set_v his_o delight_n on_o god_n he_o may_v well_o give_v as_o much_o time_n to_o these_o action_n as_o to_o any_o carnal_a sport_n but_o if_o any_o man_n calling_n lie_v in_o study_n or_o such_o like_a labour_n of_o the_o mind_n first_o the_o change_n be_v a_o great_a refresh_n and_o variety_n a_o delight_n and_o then_o there_o be_v religious_a exercise_n which_o will_v refresh_v the_o mind_n as_o well_o as_o any_o sport_n and_o for_o so_o much_o exercise_n as_o health_n require_v it_o be_v not_o long_o in_o use_v because_o nature_n be_v here_o as_o in_o other_o matter_n content_a with_o a_o little_a howsoever_o man_n seek_v excuse_n by_o belie_v she_o so_o that_o at_o the_o least_o a_o equal_a portion_n of_o time_n must_v be_v allot_v to_o god_n and_o religion_n as_o to_o sport_n and_o delight_n even_o of_o student_n if_o they_o will_v first_o seek_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n therefore_o let_v a_o man_n measure_n out_o the_o time_n of_o sport_v and_o recreate_v himself_o by_o the_o time_n he_o take_v to_o pray_v to_o read_v to_o meditate_v to_o sing_v psalm_n to_o confer_v of_o good_a thing_n or_o the_o like_a and_o know_v that_o he_o have_v not_o liberty_n from_o god_n to_o employ_v ordinary_o so_o much_o time_n never_o to_o employ_v one_o minute_n more_o in_o the_o most_o unoffensive_a sport_n then_o in_o these_o service_n of_o god_n now_o let_v a_o man_n conform_v himself_o to_o these_o two_o rule_n begin_v not_o play_v till_o need_v of_o body_n or_o mind_n exact_v it_o continue_v not_o sport_n long_o than_o a_o man_n have_v or_o shall_v continue_v some_o godly_a private_a exercise_n of_o religion_n and_o he_o shall_v save_v his_o time_n well_o from_o this_o first_o thief_n now_o come_v to_o be_v consider_v the_o next_o spender_n or_o rather_o robber_n of_o time_n that_o be_v idle_a twattle_a or_o babble_n and_o concern_v this_o our_o saviour_n christ_n deal_v plain_o with_o we_o say_v 12.36_o that_o of_o every_o idle_a word_n which_o man_n shall_v speak_v they_o shall_v give_v account_n at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n think_v well_o of_o this_o sentence_n and_o lay_v up_o every_o word_n thou_o must_v not_o alone_o
