that_o the_o moral_a law_n as_o it_o be_v moral_a be_v of_o far_o great_a extension_n than_o be_v the_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o that_o the_o sabbath_n be_v moral_a in_o this_o last_o sort_n 3_o

that_o be_v which_o reason_n when_o it_o be_v not_o mislead_v and_o the_o inward_a law_n of_o nature_n dictate_v by_o common_a principle_n of_o honesty_n or_o aught_o to_o dictate_v to_o all_o man_n of_o itself_o without_o any_o outward_a usher_n this_o law_n all_o man_n take_v for_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o reciprocal_o they_o take_v the_o law_n of_o nature_n for_o this_o law_n which_o

and_o therefore_o if_o the_o ordinance_n of_o the_o sabbath_n although_o advow_v to_o be_v a_o positive_a law_n be_v notwithstanding_o call_v moral_n it_o shall_v be_v in_o one_o and_o the_o same_o

that_o can_v be_v gather_v from_o the_o foresay_a reason_n as_o it_o be_v obligatory_a for_o ever_o for_o to_o dedicate_v to_o god_n precise_o a_o seven_o day_n after_o we_o have_v bestow_v six_o

than_o to_o any_o other_o this_o reason_n contain_v in_o the_o foresay_a word_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n can_v be_v moral_a nor_o consequent_o perpetual_a but_o only_o positive_a and_o for_o

day_n shall_v thou_o labour_v as_o that_o make_v no_o part_n of_o god_n service_n no_o more_o do_v it_o make_v a_o part_n of_o the_o commandment_n although_o god_n thereby_o warn_v man_n that_o they_o
