history_n of_o the_o church_n for_o saturday_n the_o seven_o day_n thus_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o sabbath_n day_n be_v a_o proper_a name_n signify_v our_o saturday_n and_o saturday_n then_o be_v the_o day_n which_o god_n mean_v and_o speak_v of_o in_o those_o word_n remember_v the_o sabbath_n day_n second_o we_o may_v know_v that_o saturday_n be_v the_o day_n which_o god_n mean_v by_o these_o word_n sabbath_n day_n because_o god_n have_v in_o his_o 4_o come_v plain_o deciphr_v out_o the_o day_n which_o he_o call_v sabbath_n day_n and_o that_o in_o these_o word_n but_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v the_o sabbath_n etc._n etc._n and_o see_v exod._n 35.2_o and_o exod._n 23.12_o leu._n 23.3_o so_o then_o the_o seven_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v the_o very_a day_n which_o god_n understand_v by_o sabbath_n day_n now_o the_o seven_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v our_o saturday_n for_o our_o lord_n day_n or_o sunday_n be_v call_v by_o all_o the_o 4_o evangelist_n the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n mat._n 28.1_o mark_n 16.2_o luk._n 24.1_o joh._n 20.1_o well_o then_o reckon_v on_o and_o saturday_n after_o will_v be_v your_o seven_o day_n furthermore_o it_o be_v not_o obscur_o declare_v in_o the_o reason_n to_o the_o four_o come_v exod._n 20.11_o where_o almighty_a god_n set_v out_o his_o own_o ensample_n for_o we_o to_o imitate_v &_o he_o rest_v on_o the_o seven_o day_n and_o he_o bless_v and_o sanctify_v the_o seven_o day_n for_o sabbath_n which_v seven_o day_n from_o the_o creation_n be_v our_o saturday_n final_o the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v use_v in_o the_o four_o come_v promiscuous_o the_o one_o for_o the_o other_o for_o it_o be_v say_v ex._n 20.11_o that_o god_n rest_v the_o seven_o day_n wherefore_o the_o lord_n bless_v the_o sabbath_n day_n etc._n etc._n where_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v thus_o wherefore_o the_o lord_n bless_v the_o sabbath_n day_n etc._n etc._n unless_o the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v both_o one_o and_o the_o same_o and_o here_o i_o may_v add_v the_o testimony_n of_o walaeus_n de_fw-fr sabbatho_n pag._n 61._o who_o affitm_v and_o also_o prove_v it_o that_o the_o word_n sabbath_n in_o the_o four_o come_v be_v not_o use_v indefinite_o and_o indeterminat_o but_o for_o the_o seven_o day_n from_o the_o creation_n three_o that_o our_o saturday_n be_v the_o sabbath_n day_n which_o be_v once_o command_v to_o the_o jew_n by_o the_o four_o come_v i_o prove_v by_o the_o testimony_n of_o all_o divine_n for_o do_v not_o all_o both_o protestant_n and_o papist_n acknowledge_v that_o our_o saviour_n be_v crucify_v on_o good_a friday_n and_o that_o he_o lie_v in_o his_o grave_n all_o our_o saturday_n be_v the_o jew_n sabbath_n day_n and_o rise_v on_o our_o sunday_n whereby_o they_o confess_v that_o our_o saturday_n be_v the_o sabbath_n day_n further_n more_o do_v not_o all_o divine_n affirm_v that_o saturday_n the_o old_a sabbath_n day_n be_v abolish_v by_o christ_n &_o c_o in_o which_o word_n they_o confess_v that_o saturday_n be_v the_o sabbath_n day_n mention_v in_o the_o four_o come_v what_o need_v of_o further_a proof_n have_v find_v out_o particular_o which_o be_v the_o day_n of_o the_o week_n to_o which_o the_o four_o come_v have_v respect_n namely_o saturday_n now_o we_o may_v be_v bold_a to_o make_v a_o more_o particular_a description_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o thus_o it_o may_v be_v desribe_v the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v that_o sacred_a time_n call_v saturday_n count_v the_o seven_o day_n from_o the_o creation_n which_o be_v sanctify_v and_o hollow_v by_o god_n and_o appoint_v to_o be_v sanctisied_a by_o man_n i_o call_v it_o a_o sacred_a time_n and_o that_o in_o a_o double_a respect_n 1._o by_o destination_n 2._o by_o consecration_n the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v holy_a by_o destination_n it_o be_v set_v a_o part_n for_o holiness_n and_o for_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n to_o be_v celebrate_v in_o it_o like_v as_o the_o temple_n once_o be_v remember_v the_o sabbath_n day_n to_o sanctify_v it_o exod._n 20.8_o the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v holy_a by_o consecration_n because_o at_o the_o creation_n god_n consecrate_v it_o and_o make_v it_o a_o holy_a day_n and_o this_o he_o do_v two_o way_n 1._o by_o his_o personal_a and_o exemplary_a rest_n upon_o this_o day_n and_o the_o seven_o day_n he_o rest_v from_o all_o his_o work_n which_o he_o have_v make_v genes_n 2.2_o for_o if_o the_o grind_v whereon_o moses_n stand_v become_v holy_a ground_n because_o of_o god_n presence_n there_o exod._n 3.5_o what_o shall_v hinder_v it_o but_o that_o in_o like_a sort_n the_o day_n wherein_o god_n himself_o rest_v shall_v forthwith_o become_v a_o holy_a day_n 2._o by_o his_o hallow_n and_o sanctify_v of_o this_o day_n so_o god_n bless_v the_o seven_o day_n and_o sanctify_v it_o etc._n etc._n genes_n 2.3_o other_o sabbath_v be_v holy_a but_o by_o destination_n only_o but_o saturday_n sabbath_n be_v holy_a both_o by_o destination_n and_o by_o consecration_n also_o have_v finish_v this_o point_n it_o remain_v that_o we_o make_v some_o use_n and_o application_n of_o it_o the_o first_o use_n than_o shall_v be_v for_o information_n and_o thus_o i_o reason_n if_o saturday_n be_v the_o day_n and_o time_n which_o god_n aim_v at_o in_o his_o four_o come_v by_o those_o word_n sabbath_n day_n then_o may_v our_o translatores_fw-la in_o translate_n of_o the_o four_o come_v safe_o translate_v it_o saturday_n for_o sabbath_n day_n they_o may_v put_v saturday_n say_v remember_v saturday_n to_o sanctify_v it_o for_o saturday_n be_v that_o day_n proper_o mean_v by_o the_o word_n sabbath_n day_n neither_o have_v we_o any_o day_n of_o the_o week_n which_o will_v answer_v to_o the_o sabbath_n day_n but_o our_o saturday_n only_o and_o if_o it_o be_v object_v that_o the_o name_n saturday_n do_v not_o full_o express_v the_o name_n sabbath_n day_n because_o sabbath_n signify_v a_o rest_n i_o answer_v it_o be_v no_o more_o than_o but_o this_o that_o to_o the_o name_n saturday_n we_o add_v the_o word_n rest_v and_o so_o we_o shall_v have_v the_o full_a sense_n thus_o saturday-r_a remember_v the_o saturday-r_a to_o sanctify_v it_o it_o be_v object_v against_o this_o that_o so_o do_v we_o shall_v bring_v a_o heathenish_a name_n as_o saturday_n be_v into_o the_o scripture_n etc._n etc._n hereto_o i_o answer_v i_o trust_v that_o as_o our_o holy_a use_n of_o our_o temple_n and_o church_n have_v purge_v that_o abuse_n of_o they_o unto_o which_o many_o of_o they_o be_v first_o erect_v so_o our_o christiaen_n use_v of_o the_o name_n saturday_n may_v sanctify_v and_o purge_v it_o from_o heathenish_a abuse_n 2._o we_o use_v the_o name_n but_o for_o distinction_n sake_n only_o void_a of_o all_o heathenish_a vanity_n now_o why_o may_v not_o the_o name_n saturday_n be_v bring_v into_o the_o scripture_n of_o the_o 10_o commandment_n as_o well_o as_o that_o heathenish_a name_n mars_n into_o the_o scripture_n of_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n then_o paul_n stand_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o mars_n hill_n and_o say_v etc._n etc._n but_o i_o mean_v not_o to_o contend_v for_o this_o i_o leave_v it_o unto_o the_o wisdom_n and_o discretion_n of_o our_o learned_a translatores_fw-la all_o that_o i_o aim_v at_o hereby_o be_v only_o this_o that_o i_o desire_v all_o mean_n and_o help_n may_v be_v afford_v whereby_o the_o true_a and_o proper_a sense_n of_o the_o scripture_n may_v be_v easy_o understand_v and_o that_o in_o as_o much_o as_o may_v be_v by_o the_o ignorant_a and_o unlearned_a this_o one_o sore_a evil_n i_o find_v that_o whilst_o we_o retain_v the_o word_n sabbath_n in_o the_o com._n it_o be_v a_o hebrew_n word_n it_o be_v in_o our_o church_n as_o it_o be_v in_o those_o day_n where_o in_o the_o scripture_n be_v in_o latin_a because_o the_o people_n understand_v not_o the_o latin_a tongue_n the_o priest_n may_v make_v what_o exposition_n they_o will_v and_o so_o it_o be_v here_o because_o the_o word_n sabbath_n a_o hebrew_n word_n be_v not_o translate_v into_o english_a but_o red_a in_o our_o bibles_n and_o retain_v still_o our_o minister_n many_o of_o they_o give_v what_o feign_a and_o fabulouse_a exposition_n of_o the_o word_n sabbath_n they_o please_v as_o a_o sabbath_n and_o the_o sabbath_n and_o a_o rest_n and_o all_o to_o this_o end_n that_o they_o may_v draw_v the_o four_o com._n unto_o the_o lord_n day_n and_o expound_v it_o of_o the_o lord_n day_n or_o sunday_n as_o if_o the_o name_n sabbath_n day_n may_v be_v give_v indifferent_o unto_o any_o day_n of_o the_o week_n none_o of_o which_o corrupt_a gloss_n can_v delud_v the_o people_n if_o they_o have_v the_o word_n sabbath_n day_n translate_v into_o english_a word_n for_o so_o they_o need_v not_o so_o whole_o rely_v upon_o the_o minister_n
rest_n and_o perform_v holy_a exercise_n a_o whole_a day_n long_o he_o have_v fulfil_v the_o commandment_n for_o it_o require_v by_o their_o doctrine_n now_o no_o more_o but_o rest_v and_o holiness_n a_o day_n long_o with_o out_o any_o mention_n how_o often_o to_o the_o three_o question_n i_o answer_v for_o they_o how_o long_o must_v that_o time_n be_v when_o it_o come_v why_o not_o a_o day_n long_o for_o the_o time_n and_o the_o word_n day_n in_o the_o four_o com._n be_v abolish_v say_v they_o so_o then_o now_o the_o com._n require_v not_o a_o day_n to_o begiven_a god_n whither_o a_o day_n of_o 12_o or_o of_o 24_o hour_n it_o only_o require_v the_o duty_n of_o rest_n and_o holiness_n well_o then_o if_o the_o church_n give_v god_n but_o one_o hour_n in_o a_o day_n when_o the_o day_n come_v in_o the_o duty_n of_o rest_n and_o holiness_n the_o come_v be_v fulfil_v and_o thus_o the_o church_n need_v not_o unless_o they_o will_v give_v god_n any_o other_o sabbath_n but_o one_o hour_n upon_o some_o one_o day_n by_o hear_v a_o sermon_n for_o all_o that_o hour_n they_o perform_v the_o duty_n of_o the_o sabbath_n to_o wit_n rest_v and_o holiness_n so_o then_o to_o sum_n up_o the_o sabbath_n which_o thes_n minister_n must_v have_v it_o be_v a_o rest_n from_o labour_n and_o a_o holy_a exercise_n of_o prayer_n with_o the_o minister_n and_o harken_v unto_o god_n word_n preach_v a_o whole_a hour_n long_o and_o that_o once_o in_o a_o week_n or_o once_o in_o a_o month_n or_o once_o in_o 7_o year_n or_o once_o in_o a_o man_n lief_a time_n behold_v your_o sabbath_n one_o thing_n i_o must_v remember_v you_o of_o which_o be_v this_o that_o god_n time_n be_v abolish_v this_o time_n of_o a_o hour_n or_o the_o like_a which_o come_v now_o by_o force_n of_o collection_n it_o be_v not_o a_o divine_a time_n but_o a_o humane_a time_n so_o the_o come_v be_v embase_v by_o the_o change_n of_o a_o divine_a time_n for_o a_o humane_a time_n judge_n now_o christian_a reader_n if_o by_o their_o distinction_n hold_v the_o time_n in_o the_o come_v ceremonial_a they_o have_v not_o nullify_v with_o the_o time_n the_o whole_a four_o comm._n also_o for_o 1._o whereas_o the_o time_n

in_o 7_o day_n now_o it_o need_v not_o be_v once_o in_o 7_o year_n 3._o whereas_o the_o sabbath_n be_v a_o day_n long_o now_o it_o need_v not_o by_o the_o four_o come_v be_v above_o a_o hour_n long_o whereas_o then_o the_o commandment_n be_v remember_v the_o sabbath_n day_n now_o it_o may_v run_v thus_o remember_v the_o sabbath_n hour_n i_o may_v now_o with_o david_n turn_v my_o speech_n from_o

the_o whole_a four_o com._n and_o that_o by_o their_o abolish_n of_o the_o proper_a time_n in_o the_o four_o comm._n whereas_o they_o say_v there_o be_v two_o thing_n in_o the_o four_o com._n the_o one_o be_v the_o time_n and_o this_o be_v abolish_v the_o other_o be_v the_o duty_n in_o the_o time_n as_o rest_v and_o holiness_n and_o thes_n they_o hold_v moral_a if_o then_o i_o shall_v prove_v that_o thes_n duty_n be_v nullify_v and_o abolish_v than_o you_o will_v say_v with_o i_o that_o they_o have_v abolish_v the_o four_o com._n indeed_o for_o both_o the_o time_n and_o the_o duty_n also_o will_v be_v abolish_v for_o this_o purpose_n we_o must_v know_v that_o there_o be_v sabbath_n day_n duty_n and_o four_o com._n duty_n proper_o so_o call_v and_o there_o be_v duty_n very_o like_a unto_o they_o as_o one_o egg_n be_v like_o a_o other_o but_o the_o like_a be_v not_o the_o same_o or_o as_o a_o counterfeit_a shilling_n be_v like_o a_o true_a and_o current_a shilling_n but_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o a_o true_a shilling_n and_o paiable_a by_o the_o king_n authority_n thus_o samuel_n sacrifice_v and_o saul_n sacrifice_v where_o alike_o but_o samuel_n sacrifice_v be_v proper_o a_o

to_o sanctify_v it_o in_o holy_a proformance_n this_o day_n be_v the_o seven_o day_n which_o be_v proper_o call_v sabbath_n day_n thus_o these_o duty_n be_v proper_o call_v sabbath_n day_n and_o

that_o very_a sabbath_n day_n where_o of_o god_n speak_v in_o his_o four_o come_v then_o be_v these_o word_n in_o the_o come_v to_o wit_n the_o sabbath_n day_n a_o ceremony_n and_o abolish_v the_o

or_o same_o word_n sabbath_n day_n in_o the_o four_o come_v and_o it_o must_v be_v so_o for_o they_o oppose_v thes_n word_n sabbath_n day_n in_o their_o two_o text_n unto_o the_o like_a word_n sabbath_n day_n in_o the_o four_o come_v the_o one_o to_o abolish_v the_o other_o this_o be_v so_o i_o proceed_v if_o that_o these_o word_n in_o the_o four_o come_v to_o wit_n sabbath_n day_n be_v a_o ceremony_n and_o abolish_v then_o be_v the_o four_o come_v nullify_v and_o utter_o overthrow_v that_o this_o be_v so_o i_o pray_v look_v the_o text_n exod._n 20.8_o remember_v the_o sabbath_n day_n to_o sanctify_v it_o i_o have_v put_v the_o word_n in_o controversy_n in_o a_o parenthesis_n as_o you_o see_v now_o let_v thes_n minister_n take_v a_o way_n those_o word_n in_o the_o parenthesis_n and_o you_o take_v quiet_a away_o the_o very_a subject_a matter_n of_o the_o lord_n speech_n you_o leave_v a_o roof_n with_o out_o a_o foundation_n god_n say_v remember_v the_o sabbathday_n but_o if_o

5.12_o but_o if_o there_o be_v no_o sabbath_n day_n how_o shall_v a_o man_n keep_v it_o again_o god_n say_v sanctify_v it_o but_o how_o shall_v we_o sanctify_v it_o if_o it_o be_v not_o what_o can_v we_o remember_v to_o sanctify_v a_o nothing_o so_o thus_o i_o have_v show_v that_o the_o very_a commandment_n the_o four_o come_v be_v utter_o nullify_v by_o their_o obiectiones_fw-la and_o make_v to_o speak_v nonsense_n or_o a_o nothing_o this_o be_v my_o first_o argument_n my_o second_o argument_n be_v take_v from_o the_o word_n sabbath_n in_o their_o own_o sense_n &_o use_v of_o it_o for_o when_o i_o urge_v they_o with_o the_o name_n sabbath_n in_o the_o four_o come_v they_o turn_v i_o off_o with_o this_o that_o the_o hebrew_n word_n sabbath_n signify_v a_o rest_n in_o english_a well_o be_v it_o so_o a_o rest_n let_v it_o signify_v from_o these_o two_o text_n then_o i_o argue_v again_o thus_o if_o the_o rest_n in_o the_o four_o come_v be_v abolish_v they_o be_v the_o four_o come_v itself_o utter_o abolish_v but_o that_o the_o rest_n in_o the_o four_o come_v be_v abolish_v themselves_o confess_v it_o in_o their_o object_v two_o text_n for_o in_o thes_n text_n be_v the_o word_n sabbath_n see_v exod._n 31.13_o col._n 2.16_o which_o word_n sabbath_n signify_v a_o rest_n now_o they_o do_v oppose_v the_o word_n sabbath_n which_o signify_v a_o rest_n in_o exod._n 31.13_o col._n 2.16_o against_o the_o same_o word_n sabbath_n in_o the_o four_o comm_n which_o signi_v a_o rest_n also_o prove_v unto_o we_o that_o the_o sabbath_n and_o rest_n in_o the_o four_o come_v be_v a_o

and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o prove_v the_o consequence_n namely_o that_o if_o the_o rest_n in_o the_o four_o come_v be_v abolish_v then_o be_v the_o four_o come_v utter_o and_o for_o ever_o abolish_v this_o i_o make_v good_a thus_o if_o that_o rest_n from_o our_o servile_a labour_n be_v abolish_v which_o be_v once_o in_o the_o four_o come_v command_v then_o now_o we_o may_v labour_v in_o our_o

thus_o i_o have_v finish_v my_o argument_n raise_v out_o of_o their_o two_o text_n wherehy_a i_o have_v prove_v that_o from_o their_o objection_n and_o exposition_n there_o follow_v not_o only_o a_o

2.16.17_o the_o which_o other_o man_n do_v make_v to_o fight_v together_o like_o deadly_a enemy_n before_o i_o conclude_v this_o section_n let_v i_o render_v a_o reason_n why_o i_o do_v on_o all_o

than_o the_o yearly_a sabbath_n for_o these_o begin_v but_o after_o the_o give_v of_o the_o law_n but_o that_o begin_v before_o the_o give_n of_o the_o law_n 2._o because_o god_n sanctify_v and_o

that_o also_o by_o precedent_n these_o be_v holy_a but_o by_o destination_n only_o but_o that_o be_v holy_a by_o consecration_n also_o 3._o because_o they_o be_v distinct_a in_o themselves_o the_o one_o be_v once_o every_o week_n the_o other_o once_o every_o year_n 4._o because_o god_n place_v the_o weekly_a seven_o day_n sabbath_n in_o his_o moral_a law_n and_o in_o the_o heart_n or_o first_o table_n thereof_o but_o the_o yearly_a sabbath_n be_v exclude_v thence_o and_o never_o come_v into_o the_o table_n of_o stone_n 5._o because_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v a_o sign_n of_o and_o keep_v in_o memory_n of_o the_o creation_n which_o belong_v unto_o all_o man_n alike_o but_o so_o be_v it_o not_o with_o the_o yearly_a sabbath_n there_o be_v good_a reason_n therefore_o why_o i_o

unto_o god_n last_o all_o protestant_n do_v allow_v and_o approve_v of_o one_o day_n in_o seven_o as_o fit_a to_o rest_v in_o from_o labour_n and_o to_o worship_n god_n public_o so_o here_o be_v a_o

after_o the_o apostle_n we_o shall_v find_v that_o they_o hold_v it_o meet_v to_o keep_v one_o day_n in_o 7_o and_o sometime_o more_o for_o the_o service_n of_o god_n and_o to_o rest_v from_o labour_n thus_o we_o have_v a_o general_a and_o joint_a consent_n of_o all_o church_n both_o now_o live_v and_o from_o the_o apostle_n time_n that_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n meet_v to_o rest_n and_o serve_v god_n

now_o i_o come_v to_o prove_v that_o of_o all_o the_o day_n of_o the_o week_n the_o seven_o day_n or_o saturday_n be_v the_o most_o fit_a day_n my_o first_o reason_n be_v because_o god_n almighty_a

then_o on_o that_o day_n wherein_o god_n almighty_n rest_v my_o second_o reason_n be_v take_v from_o this_o that_o a_o man_n may_v doubt_v whither_o the_o old_a sabbath_n day_n be_v abolish_v or_o not_o and_o if_o it_o be_v disputable_a and_o
&_o to_o the_o redemption_n but_o we_o speak_v of_o a_o sabbath_n that_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o the_o creation_n therefore_o the_o sabbath_n we_o here_o speak_v for_o it_o differ_v from_o those_o sabbath_n which_o the_o apostle_n abolish_v as_o far_o as_o the_o creation_n differ_v from_o the_o redemption_n &_o this_o yet_o further_o appear_v in_o their_o text_n for_o it_o speak_v of_o a_o

it_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o thing_n past_a &_o do_v before_o as_o of_o the_o creation_n so_o that_o this_o sabbath_n differ_v from_o those_o abolish_v sabbath_n as_o far_o as_o thing_n past_a do_v differ_v from_o thing_n to_o come_v so_o then_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v that_o any_o thing_n once_o make_v a_o help_n to_o keep_v in_o memory_n the_o creation_n be_v ever_o abolish_v &_o indeed_o it_o be_v contrary_a unto_o all_o reason_n that_o it_o shall_v for_o albeit_o that_o such_o sign_n shall_v vanish_v as_o have_v respect_n unto_o thing_n future_a when_o once_o the_o substance_n be_v

of_o it_o &_o so_o much_o for_o answer_v to_o this_o fond_a objection_n i_o come_v now_o unto_o the_o proof_n of_o the_o minor_a or_o second_o proposition_n to_o wit_n that_o the_o seven_o day_n

testimony_n from_o the_o scripture_n for_o this_o purpose_n see_v ex._n 31.17_o where_o the_o lord_n speake_v of_o our_o 6_o day_n labour_n &_o of_o our_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n say_v thus_o it_o

that_o not_o only_o towards_o mankind_n in_o general_a but_o also_o unto_o mercy_n both_o unto_o man_n &_o beast_n and_o thus_o i_o argue_v that_o which_o be_v express_o command_v in_o the_o moral_a

as_o for_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o major_n i_o suppose_v none_o will_v deny_v it_o for_o it_o be_v a_o rule_n in_o expound_v the_o commandment_n that_o not_o only_o the_o thing_n express_v in_o the_o

that_o must_v needs_o be_v moral_a without_o all_o controversy_n and_o as_o for_o the_o minor_a i_o suppose_v it_o be_v as_o clear_a as_o the_o major_a for_o 1._o it_o be_v express_o command_v in_o

be_v suppose_v of_o divine_a institution_n so_o necessary_a than_o be_v a_o day_n of_o divine_a institution_n as_o without_o it_o religion_n &_o god_n worship_n will_v languish_v of_o a_o continual_a

of_o nature_n allow_v and_o approve_v be_v teach_v unto_o they_o as_o to_o observe_v those_o which_o be_v never_o teach_v they_o for_o it_o be_v not_o the_o find_n of_o they_o nor_o the_o manner_n
