whole_a work_n of_o our_o redemption_n by_o he_o be_v institute_v by_o himself_o or_o his_o apostle_n by_o he_o authorize_v and_o inspire_v for_o this_o very_a end_n &_o come_v about_o once_o in_o

any_o day_n whereon_o these_o duty_n be_v do_v be_v as_o holy_a a_o day_n as_o christmas_n day_n or_o if_o he_o think_v the_o duty_n be_v more_o acceptable_a for_o the_o day_n sake_n or_o for_o the_o

man_n to_o command_v more_o be_v too_o much_o presumption_n his_o reason_n against_o it_o be_v invalide_v 1._o because_o a_o duty_n can_v be_v perform_v without_o time_n true_a but_o without_o a_o set_n a_o fix_a holy_a time_n it_o may_v here_o be_v a_o fallacy_n from_o time_n as_o a_o natural_a and_o necessary_a adjunct_n of_o a_o action_n to_o time_n as_o holy_a as_o worship_n which_o yet_o be_v not_o observe_v by_o the_o doctor_n for_o he_o with_o other_o seem_v to_o hold_v time_n in_o the_o 4_o commandment_n to_o be_v only_o a_o adjunct_n of_o worship_n as_o of_o any_o other_o action_n but_o we_o think_v time_n in_o the_o 4_o commandment_n be_v a_o part_n of_o worship_n and_o this_o i_o think_v they_o do_v make_v it_o in_o this_o present_a case_n for_o they_o do_v not_o only_o make_v the_o duty_n pray_v praise_v preach_v etc._n etc._n a_o part_n of_o worship_n 48._o see_v 48._o which_o they_o be_v every_o day_n when_o they_o be_v perform_v but_o the_o very_a dedication_n

though_o not_o only_o the_o excess_n for_o it_o make_v it_o necessary_a as_o a_o duty_n of_o a_o holy_a day_n when_o god_n have_v not_o make_v it_o necessary_a have_v allow_v 6_o day_n for_o man_n own_o work_n &_o though_o rest_n be_v agreeable_a to_o holy_a duty_n festivity_n and_o fast_a day_n of_o god_n command_n yet_o than_o it_o presuppose_v a_o command_n of_o god_n for_o those_o duty_n and_o day_n or_o if_o the_o time_n be_v only_o a_o adjunct_n of_o those_o duty_n than_o rest_n be_v necessary_a only_a naturali_fw-la necessitate_v not_o moralj_n because_o no_o man_n can_v solemn_o
