they_o delight_n in_o this_o and_o sanctify_v it_o and_o count_v it_o holy_a to_o the_o lord_n and_o the_o more_o a_o man_n fear_v god_n the_o more_o careful_a he_o be_v of_o the_o keep_n of_o this_o

this_o day_n no_o man_n do_v sanctify_v this_o day_n conscionable_o but_o he_o shall_v find_v a_o blessing_n therefore_o it_o be_v sure_o from_o the_o lord_n the_o first_o use_n be_v this_o be_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n 1._o the_o sabbath_n by_o divine_a institution_n then_o here_o we_o see_v that_o we_o be_v to_o keep_v a_o whole_a day_n the_o devil_n if_o he_o can_v make_v man_n keep_v no_o day_n than_o it_o be_v his_o policy_n to_o make_v they_o keep_v it_o by_o half_n oh_o say_v they_o do_v we_o not_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n do_v we_o not_o come_v to_o church_n and_o hear_v the_o word_n and_o divine_a service_n morning_n and_o evening_n be_v not_o this_o to_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n but_o if_o the_o lord_n have_v institute_v this_o day_n then_o certain_o he_o have_v institute_v a_o whole_a day_n it_o be_v madness_n and_o want_v of_o reason_n for_o a_o man_n to_o think_v the_o contrary_n suppose_v i_o hire_v a_o man_n to_o labour_n with_o i_o for_o a_o day_n do_v i_o not_o make_v account_n he_o shall_v work_v one_o whole_a day_n suppose_v i_o hire_v a_o servant_n for_o a_o year_n do_v i_o not_o mean_v a_o whole_a year_n though_o i_o put_v not_o in_o the_o

sense_n when_o the_o scripture_n say_v thou_o shall_v sanctify_v the_o sabbath_n day_n it_o be_v mean_v a_o whole_a day_n it_o be_v not_o in_o this_o as_o in_o other_o word_n any_o piece_n of_o a_o

water_n or_o of_o fire_n be_v fire_n but_o a_o part_n of_o a_o day_n be_v not_o a_o day_n remember_v thou_o keep_v holy_a the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o i_o be_v in_o the_o spirit_n on_o the_o lord_n day_n and_o they_o meet_v together_o on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n it_o be_v a_o day_n therefore_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o scripture_n be_v that_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o whole_a day_n and_o it_o be_v so_o in_o reason_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v to_o keep_v a_o whole_a day_n therefore_o we_o shall_v not_o curtail_v the_o lord_n day_n as_o the_o servant_n of_o hanun_n do_v the_o

bring_v the_o whole_a price_n of_o their_o inheritance_n but_o they_o bring_v but_o part_n therefore_o the_o lord_n smite_v they_o with_o death_n so_o when_o the_o lord_n require_v a_o whole_a day_n and_o we_o give_v he_o but_o a_o part_n we_o shall_v bring_v vengeance_n upon_o our_o own_o head_n there_o be_v divers_a argument_n for_o it_o first_o the_o 1._o week_n consist_v of_o seven_o day_n and_o he_o have_v give_v six_o to_o we_o and_o reserve_v one_o day_n to_o himself_o now_o we_o will_v grant_v that_o we_o have_v not_o part_v of_o six_o day_n but_o six_o whole_a day_n if_o you_o ask_v a_o man_n what_o do_v you_o work_v all_o day_n why_o yea_o the_o lord_n have_v give_v we_o six_o day_n therefore_o six_o whole_a day_n now_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n god_n must_v have_v a_o whole_a day_n if_o we_o take_v any_o part_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n than_o we_o have_v more_o than_o six_o day_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o scripture_n another_o reason_n be_v this_o god_n rest_v the_o seven_o 2._o day_n now_o look_v what_o time_n god_n rest_v that_o time_n we_o must_v sanctify_v now_o god_n rest_v the_o seven_o day_n all_o of_o it_o he_o leave_v none_o of_o the_o creation_n to_o do_v upon_o the_o seven_o day_n he_o have_v finish_v the_o creation_n in_o six_o day_n and_o rest_v all_o the_o seven_o day_n therefore_o we_o must_v keep_v the_o whole_a day_n three_o because_o this_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o a_o sabbath_n 3._o to_o be_v 24_o hour_n not_o to_o be_v a_o artificial_a day_n but_o to_o be_v a_o natural_a day_n 24_o hour_n together_o as_o you_o may_v see_v leu._n 23._o 32._o you_o shall_v keep_v the_o sabbath_n from_o evening_n to_o evening_n then_o the_o day_n be_v reckon_v from_o evening_n to_o evening_n from_o the_o creation_n though_o now_o under_o the_o gospel_n because_o christ_n arise_v in_o the_o morning_n they_o be_v reckon_v from_o morning_n to_o morning_n four_o another_o argument_n be_v this_o god_n never_o 4._o ordain_v day_n half-ho_o in_o his_o church_n indeed_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v half_a holy_a day_n as_o saint_n blac●es_n day_n which_o be_v to_o be_v keep_v in_o the_o before_o noon_n so_o they_o have_v other_o day_n that_o be_v to_o be_v keep_v in_o the_o afternoon_n but_o in_o the_o forenoon_n they_o may_v do_v what_o they_o list_v so_o heathen_n do_v as_o ovid_n say_v the_o former_a part_n of_o the_o day_n be_v holy_a the_o latter_a part_n of_o the_o day_n be_v not_o holy_a the_o lord_n have_v no_o such_o day_n as_o these_o but_o all_o holy_a day_n in_o scripture_n if_o god_n ever_o appoint_v a_o fast_n or_o new_a moon_n or_o feast_v of_o tabernacle_n whatsoever_o holy_a day_n he_o do_v institute_v it_o be_v a_o whole_a day_n and_o not_o a_o part_n of_o a_o day_n therefore_o much_o more_o this_o solemn_a day_n again_o the_o judgement_n of_o all_o divine_n in_o all_o age_n 5._o have_v be_v concern_v a_o whole_a day_n i_o can_v instance_n in_o the_o father_n as_o in_o irenaeus_n who_o say_v we_o be_v to_o continue_v in_o the_o sabbath_n all_o the_o day_n long_o for_o the_o lord_n have_v require_v all_o the_o day_n to_o be_v keep_v holy_a unto_o he_o and_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n have_v always_o keep_v a_o whole_a day_n so_o saint_n austin_n say_v it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o we_o keep_v three_o or_o four_o hour_n of_o the_o day_n but_o that_o we_o rest_v the_o whole_a day_n and_o what_o rest_n not_o only_o to_o rest_v from_o our_o bodily_a labour_n for_o the_o beast_n keep_v this_o sabbath_n nor_o the_o rest_n of_o sport_n and_o pastime_n for_o that_o be_v the_o sabbath_n of_o the_o golden_a calf_n they_o eat_v and_o drink_v and_o rise_v up_o to_o play_v no_o but_o that_o thou_o may_v be_v vacant_a to_o god_n all_o the_o day_n in_o prayer_n and_o serve_v of_o he_o so_o in_o the_o council_n of_o mexicon_n there_o be_v a_o assembly_n of_o minister_n out_o of_o all_o nation_n in_o christendom_n and_o they_o ordain_v a_o canon_n concern_v the_o

hear_v his_o word_n and_o if_o a_o countreyman_n servant_n break_v this_o day_n his_o punishment_n shall_v be_v to_o be_v beat_v with_o severe_a blow_n ictubus_fw-la gravioribus_fw-la be_v the_o

god_n say_v col._n 1._o 18._o he_o be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o body_n the_o church_n so_o that_o the_o church_n be_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n that_o same_o peculiar_a company_n of_o man_n and_o
