for_o the_o well_o observe_v of_o god_n holy_a day_n and_o upon_o this_o ground_n i_o may_v be_v bold_a to_o advise_v every_o good_a christian_a that_o before_o the_o exercise_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n he_o will_v take_v care_n to_o lay_v aside_o worldly_a occasion_n and_o to_o clear_v his_o mind_n from_o the_o thought_n of_o they_o that_o so_o he_o may_v have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o

it_o fall_v out_o not_o seldom_o that_o such_o people_n come_v tardy_a to_o church_n and_o hear_v without_o attention_n when_o they_o be_v come_v and_o go_v away_o without_o profit_n when_o all_o be_v do_v i_o like_v not_o their_o rigour_n who_o allow_v no_o word_n nor_o thought_n on_o a_o sabbath_n day_n but_o such_o as_o be_v spiritual_a nor_o can_v i_o approve_v their_o looseness_n who_o take_v so_o much_o liberty_n for_o themselves_o as_o hinder_v any_o substantial_a duty_n of_o god_n service_n more_o i_o say_v not_o at_o this_o time_n grant_v i_o but_o thus_o much_o and_o then_o you_o will_v not_o deny_v but_o so_o much_o preparation_n be_v necessary_a as_o may_v make_v we_o fit_a for_o the_o duty_n of_o god_n service_n and_o may_v make_v the_o exercise_n of_o a_o holy_a day_n profitable_a for_o our_o soul_n ii_o a_o second_o preparative_n duty_n for_o right_a hear_n be_v that_o we_o refresh_v the_o body_n with_o seasonable_a &_o moderate_a comfort_n that_o the_o sense_n &_o spirit_n be_v refresh_v the_o mind_n may_v be_v make_v more_o cheerful_a in_o god_n service_n for_o our_o soul_n work_n as_o our_o body_n be_v fit_v for_o they_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o body_n be_v the_o servant_n of_o the_o soul_n &_o the_o spirit_n be_v the_o instrument_n by_o which_o it_o work_v now_o if_o a_o master-workman_n do_v want_v servant_n to_o assist_v he_o he_o will_v do_v but_o a_o little_a work_n and_o if_o he_o want_v tool_n or_o have_v none_o but_o blunt_a one_o he_o can_v do_v no_o work_n or_o none_o to_o any_o pupose_v and_o so_o if_o the_o bodily_a sense_n be_v decay_v and_o the_o spirit_n waste_v the_o mind_n can_v be_v free_a or_o forward_o in_o good_a duty_n and_o consequent_o if_o we_o desire_v that_o our_o soul_n may_v be_v fresh_a &_o lively_a in_o hear_v or_o pray_v or_o praise_v god_n it_o will_v be_v necessary_a that_o the_o body_n be_v keep_v in_o vigour_n by_o its_o usual_a refresh_n and_o these_o refresh_n be_v two_o especial_o moderate_a diet_n and_o seasonable_a sleep_n in_o these_o i_o require_v two_o thing_n 1._o that_o there_o be_v a_o competent_a use_n of_o they_o allow_v to_o the_o

which_o be_v these_o 1._o man_n offend_v in_o eat_v and_o drink_v seldom_o in_o defect_n but_o many_o time_n by_o excess_n it_o be_v sometime_o a_o fault_n among_o the_o primitive_a christian_n when_o man_n in_o their_o zole_n do_v take_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n by_o violence_n that_o they_o fast_v so_o long_o till_o they_o faint_v and_o therefore_o be_v reprove_v by_o the_o ancient_a

duty_n for_o whoredom_n and_o wine_n and_o new_a wine_n take_v away_o the_o heart_n as_o the_o prophet_n speak_v hos_fw-la 4.11_o and_o surfeit_v and_o drunkenness_n and_o care_n of_o the_o world_n do_v overcharge_v the_o heart_n that_o it_o can_v keep_v watch_n against_o the_o great_a day_n as_o our_o saviour_n say_v luke_n 21.34_o the_o meaning_n of_o which_o speech_n be_v that_o by_o eat_v and_o drink_v and_o care_v for_o the_o world_n excessive_o or_o overmuch_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v press_v down_o and_o lay_v grovel_v upon_o the_o earth_n so_o that_o it_o be_v unfit_a for_o any_o heavenly_a thought_n and_o this_o we_o find_v to_o be_v true_a by_o daily_a experience_n for_o if_o we_o feed_v to_o the_o full_a on_o the_o lord_n day_n at_o dinner_n we_o be_v the_o worse_o dispose_v to_o hear_v or_o pray_v or_o serve_v god_n any_o way_n in_o the_o afternoon_n and_o therefore_o if_o we_o desire_v to_o profit_v by_o our_o hear_n we_o must_v beware_v of_o full_a feed_n especial_o we_o must_v take_v heed_n that_o a_o full_a stomach_n do_v not_o cause_v a_o drowsy_a head_n 2._o in_o sleep_a man_n offend_v both_o way_n both_o by_o defect_n and_o excess_n 1._o by_o defect_n and_o so_o they_o offend_v who_o on_o the_o saturday_n night_n do_v continue_v so_o long_o at_o their_o work_n that_o they_o be_v sleepy_a the_o next_o day_n when_o they_o shall_v serve_v god_n in_o good_a duty_n for_o this_o we_o may_v be_v well_o assure_v of_o that_o they_o who_o work_v when_o they_o shall_v sleep_v will_v sleep_v when_o they_o ought_v to_o work_v because_o nature_n if_o it_o be_v defraud_v of_o its_o ordinary_a rest_n will_v still_o be_v seek_v of_o a_o supply_n of_o that_o which_o be_v want_v and_o therefore_o those_o that_o will_v be_v cheerful_a in_o holy_a exercise_n on_o the_o lord_n day_n must_v give_v themselves_o sufficient_a rest_n the_o forego_n day_n yea_o and_o if_o i_o may_v advise_v they_o shall_v allow_v somewhat_o more_o than_o ordinary_a at_o that_o time_n because_o it_o be_v hard_a to_o forbear_v sleep_n in_o the_o church_n where_o we_o sit_v still_o without_o move_v than_o it_o will_v be_v in_o our_o shop_n or_o in_o place_n abroad_o where_o we_o be_v stir_v and_o move_v about_o our_o occasion_n and_o intent_n upon_o our_o trade_n and_o business_n 2_o we_o offend_v herein_o by_o excess_n also_o so_o they_o do_v who_o slug_n it_o so_o long_o in_o their_o bed_n on_o the_o service-day_n as_o that_o some_o part_n of_o god_n service_n be_v past_a before_o they_o be_v ready_a to_o come_v this_o fault_n deserve_v reprofe_n in_o two_o respect_n 1._o because_o it_o argue_v a_o great_a coldness_n in_o holy_a duty_n and_o a_o dead_a spirit_n to_o god-ward_o for_o what_o we_o do_v willing_o and_o with_o a_o cheerful_a mind_n that_o we_o do_v speedy_o and_o without_o linger_a or_o delay_n we_o read_v of_o shechem_n hamors_n son_n when_o he_o have_v a_o grant_n of_o dinah_n jacobs_n daughter_n to_o be_v
