set_v down_o in_o a_o other_o english_a catechism_n which_o i_o have_v see_v and_o read_v in_o a_o public_a auditory_a of_o protestant_n the_o ground_n therefore_o of_o this_o false_a imposition_n if_o it_o may_v be_v term_v a_o ground_n may_v happy_o have_v be_v some_o small_a short_a catechism_n make_v for_o little_a child_n and_o new_a beginner_n for_o the_o help_n of_o their_o memory_n to_o be_v learn_v by_o hart_n wherein_o this_o commandment_n as_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o long_a commandment_n set_v down_o exod._n 20._o deut._n 5._o be_v abridge_v and_o bring_v to_o so_o many_o word_n as_o mere_o serve_v to_o express_v the_o substance_n of_o they_o omit_v the_o rest_n thus_o 1._o i_o be_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n thou_o shall_v not_o have_v any_o other_o god_n before_o i_o 2._o thou_o shall_v not_o take_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n in_o vain_a 3._o remember_v thou_o sanctify_v the_o festival_n day_n 4._o honour_n thy_o father_n and_o mother_n where_o not_o only_o many_o word_n adjoin_v to_o the_o command_n against_o adore_v false_a god_n or_o idol_n exod._n 20._o deut._n 5._o but_o to_o the_o three_o ensue_v also_o be_v here_o for_o breuity_n

all_o set_v at_o large_a as_o they_o be_v there_o both_o the_o memory_n of_o young_a child_n may_v be_v overcharge_v and_o their_o weak_a understand_n confound_v not_o be_v able_a to_o distinguish_v the_o substance_n of_o the_o command_n from_o the_o reason_n and_o amplification_n of_o it_o now_o if_o we_o deliver_v the_o commandment_n with_o this_o preface_n as_o protestant_n do_v in_o their_o common_a prayer_n book_n the_o same_o which_o god_n speak_v in_o the_o 20._o chapter_n of_o exodus_fw-la say_v etc._n etc._n we_o be_v oblige_v to_o put_v they_o all_o word_n for_o word_n as_o they_o be_v find_v there_o for_o otherwise_o the_o commandment_n will_v not_o be_v answerable_a to_o the_o title_n but_o see_v we_o find_v they_o in_o other_o place_n of_o scripture_n set_v down_o in_o a_o much_o brief_a manner_n than_o they_o be_v there_o and_o find_v no_o precept_n neither_o in_o scripture_n nor_o in_o the_o church_n to_o deliver_v they_o to_o christian_n as_o they_o be_v deliver_v in_o exod._n 20._o and_o deut._n 5._o rather_o then_o in_o other_o place_n our_o adversaries_n can_n no_o more_o condemn_v we_o of_o falsefy_v they_o when_o we_o put_v they_o brief_a than_o they_o can_v the_o holy_a scripture_n itself_o for_o abbreviate_a they_o more_o in_o other_o place_n than_o they_o be_v in_o exodus_fw-la now_o cite_v and_o leviticus_fw-la that_o they_o be_v thus_o

say_v unto_o they_o you_o shall_v be_v holy_a for_o i_o the_o lord_n your_o god_n be_o holy_a you_o shall_v fear_v every_o man_n his_o father_n and_o his_o mother_n and_o shall_v keep_v my_o sabbath_n i_o be_o the_o lord_n your_o god_n you_o shall_v not_o turn_v undo_v idol_n nor_o make_v melt_a god_n i_o be_o the_o lord_n your_o god_n etc._n etc._n where_o that_o which_o our_o adversaries_n account_n the_o second_o commandment_n be_v put_v even_o short_a than_o many_o of_o our_o catechism_n have_v it_o turn_v not_o yourselves_o unto_o idol_n nor_o make_v unto_o yourselves_o melt_v god_n as_o it_o be_v in_o exod._n 20._o v_o 23._o you_o shall_v not_o make_v unto_o yourselves_o god_n of_o silver_n neither_o shall_v you_o make_v god_n of_o gold_n neither_o indeed_o be_v it_o any_o way_n convenient_a to_o deliver_v the_o commandment_n public_o and_o general_o to_o christian_a people_n word_n for_o word_n as_o they_o stand_v exod._n 20._o levitit_fw-la 26._o because_o thereby_o they_o be_v endanger_v either_o to_o take_v sunday_n to_o be_v saturday_n or_o the_o jewish_a sabbath_n or_o must_v hold_v themselves_o oblige_v to_o observe_v saturday_n with_o the_o jew_n that_o alone_o be_v dies_fw-la sabbati_fw-la the_o sabbath_n day_n wherein_o only_o god_n rest_v after_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n which_o only_a he_o also_o sanctified_a and_o command_v to_o be_v keep_v as_o clear_o appear_v by_o the_o word_n of_o the_o commandment_n so_o that_o it_o be_v not_o any_o seven_o day_n or_o one_o indeterminate_o every_o week_n which_o god_n command_v to_o be_v keep_v holy_a in_o this_o precept_n but_o one_o only_o and_o determinate_o that_o be_v the_o same_o seven_o day_n where_o in_o god_n rest_v from_o the_o work_n of_o the_o creation_n as_o appear_v gen._n 2.1.2.3_o et_fw-la benedixit_fw-la diei_fw-la septimo_fw-la &_o sanctisicavit_fw-la illum_fw-la quia_fw-la in_o ipso_fw-la cessaverat_fw-la ab_fw-la omni_fw-la opere_fw-la svo_fw-la quod_fw-la creavit_fw-la deus_fw-la ut_fw-la faceret_fw-la and_o god_n bless_v the_o seven_o day_n and_o sanctify_v it_o hecause_fw-mi that_o in_o it_o he_o have_v rest_v from_o all_o his_o work_n which_o god_n create_v and_o make_v now_o it_o be_v most_o evident_a that_o god_n rest_v only_o upon_o one_o determinate_a day_n and_o that_o no_o other_o than_o the_o jewish_a sabbath_n or_o saturday_n or_o if_o they_o understand_v well_o what_o day_n be_v mean_v in_o the_o commandemenr_n they_o must_v needs_o be_v scandalize_v to_o see_v a_o commandment_n universal_o deliver_v to_o they_o of_o keep_v the_o jewish_a sabbath_n which_o be_v and_o ever_o be_v saturday_n and_o yet_o never_o observe_v by_o any_o of_o they_o but_o sunday_n in_o place_n of_o it_o hence_o therefore_o we_o see_v in_o general_a that_o it_o be_v very_o inconvenient_a to_o propose_v god_n commandment_n public_o to_o christian_n word_n for_o word_n as_o they_o stand_v in_o exodus_fw-la and_o so_o we_o can_v never_o be_v just_o condemn_v if_o we_o put_v some_o of_o they_o as_o they_o be_v more_o brief_o deliver_v in_o other_o place_n of_o scripture_n or_o now_o to_o be_v in_o observance_n among_o christian_n but_o there_o be_v a_o other_o point_n boggele_v at_o chief_o by_o the_o ignorant_a about_o the_o division_n of_o god_n commandment_n you_o object_n they_o against_o we_o put_v the_o two_o first_o commandment_n into_o one_o and_o divide_v the_o last_o into_o two_o i_o answer_v that_o a_o catholic_a see_v their_o division_n may_v with_o much_o more_o reason_n tell_v protestant_n you_o put_v the_o two_o last_o commandment_n into_o one_o and_o divide_v the_o first_o into_o two_o brief_o therefore_o to_o clear_v this_o point_n it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o though_o it_o be_v express_o declare_v in_o scripture_n that_o god_n commandment_n be_v ten_o in_o number_n and_o write_v in_o two_o table_n yet_o through_o the_o whole_a bible_n never_o be_v it_o declare_v which_o be_v the_o first_o second_v three_o etc._n etc._n nor_o so_o much_o as_o one_o word_n speak_v concern_v the_o division_n of_o they_o but_o this_o be_v leave_v either_o to_o tradition_n or_o to_o the_o prudent_a determination_n of_o doctor_n so_o that_o howsoever_o they_o be_v prudent_o divide_v there_o will_v be_v nothing_o contrary_a to_o scripture_n so_o long_o as_o the_o whole_a substance_n be_v express_v and_o the_o number_n of_o they_o be_v observe_v hence_o in_o and_o even_o before_o s._n augustins_n time_n as_o he_o witness_v there_o be_v a_o double_a division_n of_o the_o commandment_n among_o christian_n some_o divide_v they_o as_o we_o do_v and_o other_o as_o our_o adversaries_n yet_o both_o s._n augustine_n himself_o q._n 71._o in_o exod._n and_o s._n hierome_n comment_n in_o psalm_n 32._o and_o clemens_n alexandrinus_n lib._n 6._o stromatum_fw-la follow_v our_o division_n s._n augustin_n prove_v it_o very_o large_o to_o be_v the_o better_a and_o put_v in_o the_o first_o commandment_n idol_n not_o image_n and_o serve_v not_o worship_n and_o s._n hierome_n set_v down_o the_o three_o commandment_n contain_v in_o the_o first_o table_n 30._o as_o short_a or_o short_a than_o any_o of_o our_o catechism_n do_v and_o from_o they_o even_o to_o our_o time_n it_o seem_v to_o have_v be_v the_o receive_a division_n at_o least_o in_o the_o western_a church_n and_o shall_v have_v be_v follow_v by_o those_o of_o our_o nation_n who_o ever_o before_o the_o breach_n be_v estemeed_o a_o part_n of_o it_o and_o yet_o pretend_v to_o be_v so_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o contradiction_n against_o the_o roman_a church_n induce_v they_o to_o the_o contrary_n now_o as_o we_o have_v authority_n so_o have_v we_o solid_a reason_n to_o prefer_v this_o division_n before_o that_o of_o our_o adversaries_n for_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o each_o different_a commandment_n forbid_v a_o different_a main_a sin_n so_o that_o neither_o be_v we_o to_o make_v two_o
