people_n so_o long_a god_n will_v have_v that_o to_o be_v the_o solemn_a manner_n of_o confess_v these_o attribute_n but_o when_o the_o priesthood_n be_v change_v there_o be_v a_o change_n also_o of_o

but_o the_o manner_n of_o confess_v it_o be_v change_v from_o a_o rest_n or_o a_o do_v nothing_o to_o a_o speak_v something_o from_o a_o day_n to_o a_o symbol_n from_o a_o ceremony_n to_o a_o

creation_n so_o far_o as_o it_o be_v instrumental_a to_o a_o real_a duty_n we_o keep_v one_o day_n in_o seven_o and_o so_o confess_v the_o manner_n and_o circumstance_n of_o the_o creation_n and_o we_o rest_v also_o that_o we_o may_v tend_v holy_a duty_n so_o imitate_v god_n rest_n better_o than_o the_o jew_n in_o synesius_n who_o lie_v upon_o his_o face_n from_o evening_n to_o evening_n and_o can_v not_o by_o stripe_n or_o wound_n be_v raise_v up_o to_o steer_v the_o ship_n in_o a_o great_a storm_n god_n rest_n be_v not_o a_o natural_a cessation_n he_o who_o can_v not_o labour_v can_v

when_o we_o confess_v and_o rejoice_v in_o god_n work_n and_o god_n glory_n this_o the_o christian_a church_n do_v upon_o every_o day_n but_o especial_o upon_o the_o lord_n day_n which_o she_o have_v

the_o church_n ever_o have_v and_o now_o upon_o the_o lord_n day_n we_o be_v not_o tie_v to_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o sabbath_n but_o to_o all_o the_o work_n of_o the_o sabbath_n &_o we_o be_v to_o

we_o attend_v to_o the_o office_n of_o religion_n the_o observation_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n differ_v nothing_o from_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o sabbath_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o religion_n but_o in_o the_o manner_n they_o differ_v in_o the_o ceremony_n and_o external_a rite_n rest_v with_o they_o be_v the_o principal_a with_o we_o it_o be_v the_o accessary_n they_o differ_v in_o the_o

to_o distinguish_v festival_n day_n from_o common_a do_v it_o not_o by_o lessen_v the_o devotion_n of_o ordinary_a day_n that_o the_o common_a devotion_n may_v seem_v big_a upon_o festival_n but_o on_o every_o day_n keep_v your_o ordinary_a devotion_n entire_a and_o enlarge_v upon_o the_o holy_a day_n 2._o upon_o the_o lord_n day_n we_o must_v abstain_v from_o all_o servile_a and_o laborous_a work_n except_o such_o which_o be_v matter_n of_o necessity_n of_o common_a life_n or_o of_o great_a charity_n for_o these_o be_v permit_v by_o that_o authority_n which_o have_v separate_v the_o day_n for_o holy_a use_n the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o jew_n though_o consist_v principal_o in_o rest_n and_o establish_v by_o god_n do_v yield_v to_o these_o the_o labour_n of_o love_n and_o the_o labour_n of_o religion_n be_v not_o against_o the_o reason_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o commandment_n for_o which_o the_o letter_n be_v decree_v and_o to_o which_o it_o ought_v to_o minister_v and_o therefore_o much_o more_o be_v it_o so_o on_o the_o lord_n day_n where_o the_o letter_n be_v whole_o turn_v into_o spirit_n and_o there_o be_v no_o commandment_n of_o god_n but_o of_o spiritual_a and_o holy_a action_n the_o priest_n may_v kill_v their_o beast_n and_o dress_v they_o for_o sacrifice_n and_o ch●ist_v though_o bear_v under_o the_o law_n may_v heal_v a_o sick_a man_n and_o the_o

and_o a_o ass_n be_v hale_v out_o of_o a_o ditch_n &_o a_o man_n may_v take_v physic_n and_o he_o may_v eat_v meat_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v of_o necessity_n some_o to_o prepare_v and_o

as_o to_o exclude_v unnecessary_a labour_n or_o such_o as_o do_v not_o minister_v to_o charity_n or_o religion_n and_o therefore_o this_o be_v to_o be_v enlarge_v in_o the_o gospel_n who_o sabbath_n or_o rest_n be_v but_o a_o circumstance_n and_o accessary_a to_o the_o principal_a and_o spiritual_a duty_n upon_o the_o christian_a sabbath_n necessity_n be_v to_o be_v serve_v first_o than_o
