more_o for_o his_o purpose_n to_o use_v such_o custom_n as_o be_v only_o design_v for_o union_n than_o those_o which_o be_v only_o in_o opposition_n to_o their_o otherwise_o indifferent_a usage_n and_o there_o must_v needs_o follow_v a_o great_a difference_n in_o the_o nature_n of_o those_o two_o sort_n of_o constitution_n those_o constitution_n which_o be_v only_o design_v for_o opposition_n

such_o custom_n as_o be_v only_o design_v for_o opposition_n when_o they_o cease_v to_o be_v opposite_a but_o for_o such_o law_n as_o be_v design_v for_o unite_n they_o though_o the_o occasion_n of_o

regard_v by_o moses_n in_o the_o make_n of_o his_o law_n there_o be_v none_o more_o likely_a to_o be_v so_o than_o the_o egyptian_n their_o custom_n both_o good_a and_o bad_a be_v fresh_a in_o his_o people_n memory_n and_o there_o be_v some_o law_n which_o can_v be_v any_o way_n else_o so_o probable_o account_v for_o as_o by_o a_o egyptian_a original_a to_o they_o and_o to_o their_o country_n they_o have_v the_o great_a inclination_n in_o their_o murmur_n they_o mention_v the_o onion_n and_o garlic_n and_o the_o fleshpot_n of_o egypt_n 4_o and_o motion_n the_o make_v of_o a_o captain_n

to_o have_v have_v afterward_o that_o pretence_n of_o the_o israelite_n 26._o that_o if_o they_o shall_v sacrifice_v in_o egypt_n they_o shall_v sacrifice_v the_o abomination_n of_o the_o egyptian_n

the_o first_o idolatry_n they_o be_v guilty_a of_o after_o their_o come_n out_o of_o egypt_n choose_v rather_o the_o resemblance_n of_o a_o calf_n than_o any_o other_o for_o their_o deity_n so_o that_o at_o that_o time_n there_o seem_v to_o have_v be_v a_o full_a occasion_n for_o this_o constitution_n of_o moses_n 4._o therefore_o as_o these_o solemn_a panegyre_n sect._n 13_o be_v to_o be_v

that_o brazen_a one_o why_o not_o but_o because_o he_o find_v it_o not_o agreeable_a to_o the_o custom_n and_o signification_n of_o those_o time_n to_o receive_v their_o sacrifice_n on_o such_o
