so_o this_o commandment_n have_v the_o reason_n of_o god_n rest_v from_o the_o creation_n occasional_o affix_v unto_o it_o because_o that_o then_o the_o creation_n be_v god_n great_a and_o eminent_a

then_o that_o and_o yet_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o commandment_n remain_v unalterable_a which_o substance_n or_o unalterable_a part_n of_o the_o commandment_n consist_v in_o the_o number_n as_o

that_o adam_n shall_v keep_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n which_o god_n rest_v on_o for_o though_o it_o be_v god_n seven_o day_n yet_o it_o be_v adam_n second_o day_n which_o be_v another_o reason_n to_o prove_v your_o probability_n for_o it_o be_v likely_a that_o god_n himself_o do_v first_o rest_v the_o seven_o day_n that_o so_o he_o may_v by_o his_o example_n be_v reveal_v to_o that_o end_n
