suppose_v that_o the_o number_n of_o seven_o be_v mystical_a it_o follow_v that_o we_o be_v free_v from_o it_o and_o not_o from_o the_o seven_o day_n only_o for_o what_o have_v we_o to_o do_v with_o the_o jewish_a dark_a mystery_n in_o this_o clear_a sunshine_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o week_n by_o this_o doctrine_n shall_v rather_o be_v a_o mystery_n or_o shadow_n then_o the_o sabbath_n for_o

3._o if_o the_o number_n of_o seven_o or_o last_o of_o seven_o be_v mystical_a must_v it_o not_o be_v so_o from_o the_o beginning_n and_o thus_o must_v the_o sabbath_n be_v a_o mystery_n or_o shadow_n

as_o well_o as_o the_o sabbath_n answer_n i_o grant_v you_o that_o the_o sabbath_n be_v a_o shadow_n or_o signification_n of_o the_o bless_a rest_n to_o come_v and_o that_o not_o as_o it_o be_v a_o seven_o day_n therein_o day_n in_o respect_n of_o any_o mystery_n contain_v therein_o but_o as_o the_o seven_o day_n be_v a_o sabbath_n but_o hence_o you_o will_v deduce_v a_o wrong_a conclusion_n that_o therefore_o it_o be_v as_o be_v the_o jewish_a shadow_n abrogative_n in_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o we_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o dark_a mystery_n say_v you_o in_o this_o clear_a
