to_o my_o purpose_n to_o observe_v that_o there_o be_v also_o weekly_o as_o well_o as_o those_o monthly_a fast_n among_o that_o people_n which_o our_o saviour_n find_v in_o use_n when_o he_o come_v

upon_o they_o for_o it_o as_o if_o they_o be_v superstitious_a or_o do_v more_o than_o need_v no_o our_o bless_a saviour_n rather_o approve_v of_o their_o strictness_n in_o this_o for_o he_o say_v his_o disciple_n shall_v not_o be_v behind_o with_o they_o in_o fast_v hereafter_o though_o for_o the_o present_a there_o be_v a_o special_a reason_n why_o they_o do_v not_o practice_v it_o of_o which_o speech_n of_o our_o saviour_n i_o shall_v make_v considerable_a use_n present_o when_o i_o have_v note_v that_o the_o two_o day_n on_o which_o they_o fast_v every_o week_n be_v the_o second_o and_o the_o five_o that_o be_v our_o monday_n and_o thursday_n which_o day_n no_o doubt_n be_v choose_v because_o they_o have_v be_v of_o old_a day_n of_o prayer_n which_o the_o devout_a sort_n

they_o have_v be_v under_o the_o law_n and_o therefore_o still_o continue_v to_o observe_v two_o such_o day_n every_o week_n though_o not_o the_o very_a same_o for_o as_o instead_o of_o the_o seven_o which_o be_v the_o jewish_a sabbath_n they_o now_o keep_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n as_o the_o principal_a time_n for_o their_o assembly_n so_o instead_o of_o the_o second_o and_o the_o

the_o very_a same_o reason_n it_o be_v likely_a for_o which_o moses_n or_o the_o elder_n choose_v the_o other_o because_o they_o be_v at_o the_o same_o convenient_a distance_n from_o the_o lord_n
