if_o they_o so_o mean_v this_o prayer_n will_v be_v not_o only_o vain_a but_o also_o a_o impious_a mock_n of_o god_n see_v the_o commandment_n mention_n only_o the_o seven_o day_n and_o that_o

never_o yet_o revoke_v nor_o never_o will_v but_o the_o other_o sort_n which_o be_v but_o ceremonial_n and_o intend_v to_o last_v but_o during_o the_o pedagogie_n of_o his_o people_n and_o so_o for_o a_o certain_a limit_a time_n viz._n until_o the_o manifestation_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n in_o the_o flesh_n which_o be_v accomplish_v those_o temporary_a ordinance_n be_v to_o cease_v and_o this_o without_o any_o mutability_n on_o god_n part_n or_o sacrilege_n of_o men._n just_o as_o when_o a_o man_n give_v a_o pension_n or_o rend_v to_o a_o pious_a use_n for_o a_o limit_a time_n of_o

question_n in_o this_o hallow_n which_o have_v most_o perplex_v the_o mind_n of_o many_o good_a christian_n be_v concern_v the_o time_n when_o god_n do_v actual_o hallow_v or_o set_v apart_o the_o
