if_o it_o have_v be_v questionless_a the_o observation_n thereof_o have_v be_v better_o know_v and_o practise_v and_o christian_n have_v think_v themselves_o more_o oblige_v unto_o it_o for_o the_o

a_o constitution_n concern_v the_o observation_n of_o sunday_n say_v simple_o that_o he_o make_v it_o because_o on_o it_o jesus_n christ_n rise_v from_o the_o dead_a which_o indeed_o have_v always_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o this_o usage_n but_o they_o say_v not_o that_o it_o be_v because_o jesus_n christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n have_v ordain_v which_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v silent_a of_o if_o that_o have_v be_v true_a and_o it_o have_v be_v needless_a to_o allege_v any_o other_o reason_n 9_o this_o be_v also_o worthy_a to_o be_v mark_v that_o sozomen_n join_v the_o friday_n with_o the_o sunday_n and_o say_v that_o constantine_n ordain_v that_o day_n as_o well_o as_o this_o day_n that_o day_n because_o on_o it_o christ_n be_v crucify_v this_o day_n because_o on_o it_o christ_n rise_v again_o which_o show_v plain_o that_o the_o day_n of_o christ_n resurrection_n be_v not_o of_o itself_o more_o obligatory_a to_o make_v christian_n keep_v it_o then_o be_v the_o day_n of_o his_o passion_n upon_o the_o cross_n or_o of_o any_o other_o of_o his_o action_n or_o suffering_n that_o the_o one_o may_v yield_v as_o just_a and_o peremptory_a a_o cause_n thereof_o as_o the_o other_o that_o christ_n also_o have_v not_o give_v a_o commandment_n more_o express_a and_o more_o necessary_a for_o the_o one_o then_o for_o the_o other_o but_o have_v leave_v all_o this_o to_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o church_n for_o if_o he_o have_v give_v a_o particular_a commandment_n concern_v sunday_n it_o have_v be_v in_o constantine_n a_o great_a temerity_n to_o ordain_v another_o day_n in_o equal_a rank_n with_o that_o which_o christ_n have_v ordain_v because_o he_o ought_v to_o think_v that_o christ_n have_v good_a reason_n for_o the_o institution_n of_o that_o day_n which_o have_v not_o be_v valuable_a for_o any_o other_o day_n and_o that_o by_o the_o institution_n of_o one_o day_n in_o the_o week_n particular_o and_o of_o no_o more_o he_o will_v have_v all_o christian_n to_o know_v that_o no_o man_n ought_v to_o attempt_v to_o institute_v any_o other_o beside_o that_o which_o he_o have_v institute_v 9_o constantine_n have_v be_v guilty_a of_o far_o great_a rashness_n and_o indiscretion_n by_o make_v friday_n which_o be_v of_o his_o institution_n equal_a to_o sunday_n which_o jesus_n christ_n have_v ordain_v yet_o he_o do_v so_o as_o be_v manifest_a by_o the_o word_n of_o sozomen_n who_o make_v no_o odds_n between_o the_o ordinance_n make_v for_o friday_n and_o that_o which_o be_v make_v for_o sunday_n but_o see_v constantine_n in_o what_o he_o do_v do_v nothing_o amiss_o it_o be_v evident_a thereby_o that_o the_o observation_n of_o sunday_n be_v not_o of_o divine_a institution_n but_o of_o usage_n and_o custom_n only_o which_o be_v not_o receive_v every_o where_o nor_o well_o practise_v where_o it_o be_v receive_v because_o it_o be_v not_o esteem_v necessary_a wherefore_o constantine_n by_o his_o constitution_n make_v it_o necessary_a add_v another_o like_a unto_o it_o for_o friday_n all_o this_o be_v flat_a contrary_n to_o the_o assertion_n of_o those_o which_o to_o prove_v that_o sunday_n be_v of_o divine_a institution_n yield_v this_o reason_n of_o their_o opinion_n that_o no_o humane_a authority_n can_v sanctify_v a_o day_n and_o lo_o constantine_n sanctify_a friday_n ordain_v that_o it_o shall_v be_v employ_v in_o exercise_n of_o

ask_v they_o wherefore_o we_o shall_v be_v permit_v to_o do_v some_o work_n which_o be_v prohibit_v to_o the_o jew_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n as_o to_o kindle_v the_o fire_n prepare_v and_o dress_v

the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o be_v alike_o unlawful_a to_o the_o jew_n in_o virtue_n of_o the_o interdiction_n give_v in_o the_o four_o commandment_n and_o reiterated_a so_o often_o elsewhere_o if_o
