the_o lordsday_n as_o to_o retire_v from_o secular_a business_n and_o ordinary_a pleasure_n and_o delight_n that_o they_o may_v more_o free_o attend_v the_o service_n of_o christ_n be_v to_o be_v

which_o be_v former_o they_o only_o 12._o be_v now_o for_o substance_n we_o and_o we_o lay_v hold_n on_o it_o by_o faith_n have_v the_o same_o privilege_n and_o promise_n albeit_o with_o some_o difference_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o diversity_n of_o the_o state_n of_o the_o church_n under_o the_o law_n and_o the_o gospel_n so_o that_o we_o may_v claim_v be_v such_o as_o careful_o observe_v
