this_o early_a beginning_n and_o this_o late_a end_n of_o this_o fasting-day_n do_v increase_v the_o length_n of_o this_o day_n beyond_o the_o length_n of_o any_o other_o fasting-day_n or_o

until_o the_o fast_a be_v full_o end_v hence_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o same_o day_n do_v still_o continue_v till_o after_o sunset_n yea_o until_o it_o be_v midnight_n 2_o the_o priest_n have_v another_o work_n to_o do_v within_o the_o limit_n of_o this_o ten_o day_n namely_o they_o must_v burn_v all_o the_o fat_v and_o piece_n of_o all_o the_o public_a evening-sacrifice_n of_o this_o day_n
