here_o be_v busy_a about_o meat_n holy_a day_n of_o their_o own_o make_n and_o such_o like_a from_o the_o which_o the_o lord_n have_v free_v we_o to_o impose_v law_n necessary_a to_o be_v keep_v as_o they_o speak_v under_o the_o pain_n of_o salvation_n and_o damnation_n as_o the_o eat_n of_o flesh_n on_o friday_n o_o vain_a fool_n as_o for_o thing_n necessary_a to_o salvation_n and_o the_o

speak_v some_o thing_n of_o the_o observation_n of_o day_n and_o difference_n of_o meat_n see_v this_o have_v be_v handle_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o catechism_n it_o be_v not_o my_o purpose_n to_o insist_v upon_o it_o yet_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o my_o opinion_n as_o plain_o and_o brief_o as_o i_o may_v possible_o agree_v with_o the_o godly_a and_o learned_a in_o these_o day_n you_o will_v ask_v be_v there_o any_o difference_n between_o meat_n what_o shall_v we_o think_v of_o they_o that_o will_v abstain_v from_o meat_n i_o answer_v if_o for_o policy_n sake_n because_o of_o any_o politic_a law_n and_o in_o regard_n of_o a_o commonweal_n thou_o abstain_v from_o meat_n meat_n law_n concern_v meat_n thou_o do_v well_o as_o on_o the_o contrary_a thou_o do_v evil_a if_o thou_o

that_o by_o abstinence_n and_o fast_v thou_o may_v be_v the_o better_o help_v in_o the_o exercise_n spiritual_a as_o prayer_n and_o repentance_n whether_o there_o be_v a_o constitution_n of_o the_o church_n to_o that_o effect_n or_o whether_o of_o thy_o own_o motion_n thou_o do_v it_o thou_o do_v well_o but_o if_o thou_o begin_v to_o place_n godliness_n fast_o true_a fast_o in_o eat_v and_o not_o eat_v put_v a_o necessity_n in_o they_o and_o that_o with_o the_o opinion_n of_o merit_n that_o thou_o deserve_v this_o or_o that_o as_o the_o papist_n speak_v away_o with_o thou_o and_o thy_o fast_n if_o thou_o be_v of_o that_o opinion_n fast_o and_o it_o be_v forty_o day_n together_o thou_o be_v a_o idolater_n and_o all_o thy_o exercise_n stink_v in_o the_o nose_n fast_n superstitious_a fast_n of_o god_n yea_o though_o thou_o do_v fast_o till_o thy_o bone_n and_o skin_n come_v together_o now_o as_o concern_v day_n what_o shall_v we_o think_v of_o other_o country_n that_o yet_o keep_v holy_a day_n i_o shall_v tell_v you_o the_o holy_a day_n as_o they_o call_v they_o they_o be_v either_o command_v by_o god_n or_o institute_v by_o man_n god_n be_v the_o author_n of_o they_o or_o else_o man_n the_o day_n command_v by_o god_n in_o old_a time_n before_o christ_n come_v they_o be_v many_o as_o you_o may_v read_v in_o the_o book_n of_o moses_n but_o as_o touch_v the_o day_n enjoin_v by_o god_n to_o be_v keep_v of_o we_o after_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n read_v the_o scripture_n from_o the_o begin_n to_o the_o end_n and_o yet_o thou_o shall_v find_v but_o one_o day_n only_o enjoin_v thou_o to_o be_v keep_v and_o that_o by_o the_o law_n moral_a and_o this_o day_n be_v the_o lord_n sabbath_n and_o in_o keep_v of_o this_o stand_v the_o worship_v of_o god_n so_o thou_o that_o keep_v the_o seven_o day_n thou_o do_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v acceptable_a with_o god_n and_o thou_o that_o do_v it_o not_o thou_o high_o offend_v god_n then_o concern_v the_o day_n institute_v by_o man_n whether_o of_o old_a or_o of_o late_a they_o be_v different_a some_o be_v institute_v by_o man_n for_o the_o honour_n of_o vulgar_a and_o common_a saint_n of_o some_o of_o the_o which_o it_o may_v be_v doubt_v whether_o they_o be_v saint_n or_o no._n some_o be_v institute_v for_o the_o honour_n of_o the_o apostle_n indeed_o they_o be_v saint_n yea_o even_o although_o the_o pope_n will_v not_o canonize_v they_o some_o be_v institute_v for_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n and_o jesus_n christ_n now_o to_o go_v through_o as_o for_o the_o holy_a day_n appoint_v for_o y_z e_z honour_n of_o common_a saint_n i_o say_v this_o and_o it_o be_v the_o opinion_n of_o the_o learned_a they_o be_v idolatrous_a thou_o that_o do_v run_v to_o the_o bone_n of_o day_n popish_a holy_a day_n this_o saint_n or_o that_o saint_n &_o kiss_v it_o and_o thou_o wot_v not_o whether_o it_o be_v the_o bone_n of_o a_o murderer_n a_o thief_n or_o a_o oppressor_n or_o of_o a_o saint_n and_o therefore_o the_o reform_a church_n in_o europe_n have_v abolish_v these_o day_n as_o for_o the_o day_n institute_v to_o the_o honour_n of_o the_o apostle_n indeed_o it_o be_v true_a y_fw-mi e_o reform_v church_n agree_v not_o uniformal_o in_o this_o point_n some_o keep_v these_o day_n and_o yet_o without_o peril_n of_o idolatry_n because_o they_o keep_v the_o day_n only_o and_o yet_o without_o dedication_n of_o service_n to_o the_o saint_n but_o certain_o will_v you_o see_v the_o matter_n as_o it_o be_v it_o want_v not_o superstition_n if_o the_o apostle_n be_v never_o so_o holy_a to_o dedicate_v a_o day_n to_o they_o and_o service_n for_o they_o i_o will_v not_o bring_v in_o more_o reason_n yet_o this_o i_o say_v to_o celebrate_v a_o feast_n to_o any_o man_n whether_o dead_a or_o live_a with_o divine_a worship_n to_o the_o same_o it_o be_v idolatry_n for_o the_o celebration_n of_o a_o feast_n with_o service_n adjoin_v thereto_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o worship_n that_o pertain_v to_o god_n only_o read_v the_o law_n and_o you_o shall_v find_v this_o now_o will_v you_o have_v god_n mind_n in_o this_o matter_n when_o moses_n be_v dead_a god_n take_v his_o bone_n and_o cause_v they_o to_o be_v bury_v secret_o that_o not_o one_o of_o the_o people_n shall_v know_v where_o they_o be_v lay_v and_o wherefore_o do_v he_o it_o to_o prevent_v the_o superstition_n of_o the_o people_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o worship_v they_o and_o celebrate_v a_o feast_n to_o they_o he_o know_v the_o vanity_n of_o man_n brain_n he_o will_v make_v a_o god_n of_o a_o dead_a bone_n bless_a art_n thou_o that_o be_v restrain_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n will_v you_o have_v the_o example_n of_o the_o jew_n read_v where_o ever_o they_o make_v a_o feast_n to_o moses_n or_o aaron_n or_o old_a abraham_n and_o if_o any_o shall_v have_v a_o festival_n day_n they_o shall_v have_v have_v it_o but_o i_o neither_o read_v nor_o hear_v tell_v that_o they_o get_v any_o come_v to_o the_o

of_o his_o admonition_n that_o none_o shall_v condemn_v they_o of_o these_o ceremony_n and_o it_o be_v take_v from_o the_o nature_n and_o definition_n of_o all_o the_o old_a ceremony_n what_o be_v
