holy_a study_n and_o meditation_n as_o worldly_a care_n and_o both_o equal_o be_v note_v out_o to_o be_v such_o as_o choke_v the_o word_n luk._n 8.14_o and_o therefore_o this_o day_n be_v altogether_o appoint_v to_o this_o end_n even_o to_o recreate_v ourselves_o in_o the_o lord_n for_o see_v god_n purpose_v one_o day_n to_o keep_v a_o everlasting_a sabbath_n with_o we_o when_o god_n shall_v be_v all_o in_o all_o to_o make_v we_o the_o more_o fit_a for_o this_o even_o the_o more_o meet_a partaker_n of_o the_o inheritance_n of_o saint_n in_o light_n therefore_o he_o have_v give_v we_o his_o sabbath_n to_o walk_v with_o he_o and_o to_o inure_v ourselves_o to_o take_v delight_n in_o his_o company_n who_o take_v delight_n to_o speak_v unto_o we_o as_o from_o heaven_n in_o his_o holy_a

58.13_o esay_n 58.13_o if_o thou_o shall_v call_v the_o sabbath_n a_o delight_n to_o consecrate_v it_o as_o glorious_a unto_o the_o lord_n now_o have_v we_o not_o as_o much_o cause_n to_o perform_v this_o duty_n under_o the_o gospel_n as_o ever_o the_o jew_n have_v under_o the_o law_n and_o indeed_o there_o be_v no_o colour_n of_o reason_n against_o this_o but_o by_o affirm_v that_o now_o the_o set_n of_o a_o day_n apart_o for_o god_n service_n be_v leave_v at_o large_a to_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o church_n and_o albeit_o the_o church_n have_v set_v apart_o the_o lord_n day_n for_o this_o yet_o their_o meaning_n herein_o be_v no_o more_o than_o this_o that_o they_o shall_v come_v to_o church_n twice_o a_o day_n and_o afterward_o give_v themselves_o to_o what_o sport_n soever_o be_v not_o forbid_v they_o by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n so_o that_o now_o a_o day_n we_o be_v free_a from_o the_o obligation_n to_o the_o four_o commandment_n and_o yet_o we_o be_v teach_v by_o the_o church_n aswell_o at_o the_o hear_n of_o this_o commandment_n as_o at_o any_o other_o to_o say_v lord_n have_v mercy_n upon_o we_o and_o incline_v our_o heart_n to_o keep_v this_o law_n and_o the_o book_n of_o homily_n urge_v we_o to_o the_o sanctify_a of_o our_o christian_a sabbath_n which_o be_v sunday_n say_v the_o book_n express_o and_o that_o by_o virtue_n of_o god_n express_a commandment_n and_o therefore_o i_o can_v but_o wonder_v at_o the_o indiscretion_n of_o this_o prefacer_n who_o catch_v after_o such_o a_o superficial_a advantage_n as_o the_o denomination_n of_o a_o feast_n among_o the_o jew_n not_o consider_v how_o little_o suitable_a it_o be_v to_o the_o ground_n of_o his_o tenet_n for_o by_o his_o tenet_n after_o evening_n prayer_n the_o sabbath_n be_v at_o end_n the_o church_n meaning_n be_v not_o any_o further_a to_o oblige_v they_o to_o the_o sanctify_a of_o the_o lord_n day_n but_o to_o give_v they_o liberty_n to_o use_v any_o sport_n or_o pastime_n not_o forbid_v they_o by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n but_o so_o be_v not_o the_o feast_n of_o the_o jew_n end_v when_o they_o dance_v this_o be_v but_o a_o expression_n of_o that_o joy_n whereunto_o the_o present_a solemnity_n call_v they_o and_o they_o sin_v no_o more_o herein_o than_o david_n do_v when_o he_o dance_v before_o the_o ark_n as_o we_o see_v jer._n 31.12_o therefore_o they_o shall_v come_v and_o sing_v in_o the_o height_n of_o zion_n and_o shall_v flow_v together_o to_o the_o goodness_n of_o the_o lord_n for_o wheat_n and_o for_o wine_n and_o for_o oil_n and_o for_o the_o young_a of_o the_o flock_n and_o of_o the_o hear_v and_o their_o soul_n shall_v be_v as_o a_o well_o water_v garden_n and_o they_o shall_v not_o sorrow_n any_o more_o at_o all_o 13_o then_o shall_v the_o virgin_n rejoice_v in_o the_o dance_n both_o young_a man_n and_o old_a together_o for_o i_o will_v turn_v their_o mourning_n into_o joy_n and_o will_v comfort_v they_o &_o make_v they_o rejoice_v for_o their_o sorrow_n 14._o and_o i_o will_v satiate_v the_o soul_n of_o the_o priest_n with_o fatness_n and_o my_o people_n shall_v be_v satisfy_v with_o my_o goodness_n say_v the_o lord_n and_o the_o like_a we_o read_v esay_n 30.19_o you_o shall_v have_v a_o song_n as_o in_o the_o night_n when_o a_o holy_a solemnity_n be_v keep_v and_o gladness_n of_o heart_n as_o when_o one_o go_v with_o a_o pipe_n to_o come_v into_o the_o mountain_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o the_o mighty_a one_o of_o israel_n so_o that_o if_o morrice_v and_o may-game_n and_o dance_a about_o maypole_n be_v a_o sanctify_a of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n in_o part_n as_o the_o lord_n command_v the_o day_n to_o be_v sanctify_v then_o indeed_o these_o sport_n be_v as_o lawful_a on_o the_o lord_n day_n as_o the_o jew_n pipe_v and_o dance_v be_v lawful_a on_o their_o feast_n but_o that_o any_o such_o pipe_a and_o dance_v be_v use_v and_o allow_v in_o those_o ancient_a time_n among_o the_o jew_n on_o their_o sabbath_n there_o be_v not_o the_o least_o colour_n of_o evidence_n and_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o such_o sport_n put_v they_o to_o less_o rest_n for_o their_o body_n than_o the_o work_n of_o their_o call_n neither_o be_v there_o any_o better_a evidence_n that_o any_o such_o pipe_a and_o dance_v be_v in_o use_n among_o the_o jew_n while_n they_o continue_v the_o people_n of_o god_n on_o every_o day_n of_o their_o solemn_a feast_n for_o two_o day_n in_o each_o of_o they_o to_o wit_n the_o first_o day_n and_o the_o last_o they_o be_v command_v to_o keep_v as_o sabbath_n whereon_o they_o be_v to_o
