day_n 1_o apoc._n 1_o since_o which_o time_n god_n people_n have_v always_o in_o all_o age_n without_o any_o gainsaying_n use_v to_o come_v together_o upon_o the_o sunday_n 15._o numb_a 15._o to_o celebrate_v and_o honour_v the_o lord_n bless_a name_n and_o careful_o to_o keep_v that_o day_n in_o holy_a rest_n and_o quietness_n both_o man_n woman_n child_n servant_z and_o stranger_n for_o the_o

day_n be_v stone_v to_o death_n but_o alas_o all_o these_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v lamentable_a to_o see_v the_o wicked_a boldness_n of_o those_o that_o will_v be_v count_v god_n people_n who_o pass_v nothing_o at_o all_o of_o keep_v and_o hallow_v the_o sunday_n and_o these_o people_n be_v of_o two_o sort_n the_o one_o sort_n if_o they_o have_v any_o business_n to_o do_v though_o there_o be_v no_o extreme_a need_n they_o must_v not_o spare_v for_o the_o sunday_n they_o must_v ride_v and_o journey_n on_o the_o sunday_n they_o must_v drive_v and_o carry_v on_o the_o sunday_n they_o must_v row_v and_o ferry_n on_o the_o sunday_n they_o must_v buy_v and_o sell_v on_o the_o sunday_n they_o must_v keep_v market_n and_o fair_n on_o the_o sunday_n final_o they_o use_v all_o day_n alike_o work-day_n and_o holiday_n all_o be_v one_o the_o other_o sort_n be_v worse_o for_o although_o they_o will_v not_o travel_v nor_o labour_n on_o the_o sunday_n as_o they_o do_v on_o the_o weekday_n yet_o they_o will_v not_o rest_v in_o holiness_n as_o god_n command_v but_o they_o rest_v in_o ungodliness_n and_o filthiness_n prance_v in_o their_o pride_n prank_v and_o prick_v point_v and_o paint_v themselves_o to_o be_v gorgeous_a and_o gay_a they_o rest_v in_o excess_n and_o superfluity_n in_o gluttony_n and_o drunkenness_n like_o rat_n and_o swine_n they_o rest_v in_o brawl_v and_o rail_v in_o quarrel_v and_o fight_v they_o rest_v in_o wantonness_n in_o toyish_a talk_n in_o filthy_a fleshliness_n so_o that_o it_o do_v too_o evident_o appear_v that_o god_n be_v more_o

celebrate_v and_o magnify_v god_n bless_a name_n in_o quiet_a holiness_n and_o godly_a reverence_n now_o concern_v the_o place_n where_o the_o people_n of_o god_n ought_v to_o resort_v together_o and_o where_o especial_o they_o ought_v to_o celebrate_v and_o sanctify_v the_o sabbath_n day_n that_o be_v the_o sunday_n the_o day_n of_o holy_a rest_n that_o place_n be_v call_v god_n temple_n or_o
