it_o the_o lord_n day_n what_o fit_a day_n to_o ascend_v to_o heaven_n than_o that_o on_o which_o our_o lord_n do_v arise_v from_o earth_n and_o full_o triumph_v over_o death_n and_o hell_n and_o

delight_v the_o ear_n or_o tickle_v the_o fancy_n yet_o it_o be_v the_o view_v of_o god_n that_o must_v ravish_v the_o soul._n there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o difference_n betwixt_o the_o

of_o this_o especial_o 1._o those_o that_o spend_v the_o lord_n day_n only_o in_o public_a worship_n either_o through_o the_o neglect_n of_o this_o spiritual_a duty_n of_o meditation_n or_o else_o by_o their_o overmuch_a exercise_n of_o the_o public_a allow_v no_o time_n to_o private_a duty_n though_o there_o be_v few_o that_o offend_v in_o this_o last_o kind_n yet_o some_o there_o be_v and_o a_o hurtful_a mistake_n to_o the_o soul_n it_o be_v they_o will_v grow_v but_o in_o gift_n and_o common_a accomplishment_n if_o they_o exercise_v but_o their_o gift_n in_o outward_a performance_n 2._o those_o that_o have_v time_n on_o the_o lord_n day_n for_o idleness_n and_o vain_a discourse_n and_o find_v the_o day_n long_o than_o they_o know_v how_o well_o to_o spend_v be_v these_o but_o acquaint_v with_o this_o duty_n of_o contemplation_n they_o will_v need_v no_o other_o recreation_n nor_o pastime_n they_o will_v think_v the_o long_a day_n short_a enough_o and_o be_v sorry_a that_o the_o night_n have_v shorten_v their_o pleasure_n whether_o this_o day_n be_v of_o positive_a divine_a institution_n and_o so_o to_o we_o christian_n of_o necessary_a observation_n be_v out_o of_o my_o way_n to_o handle_v here_o i_o refer_v those_o that_o doubt_v to_o what_o be_v in_o print_n on_o that_o subject_n especial_o master_n george_n abbot_n against_o broad_n and_o above_o all_o master_n cawdrey_n and_o master_n palmer_n their_o sabbatum_fw-la redivivum_fw-la it_o be_v a_o encouragement_n to_o the_o doubtful_a to_o find_v the_o generality_n of_o its_o rational_a opposer_n to_o acknowledge_v the_o usefulness_n yea_o necessity_n of_o a_o state_v day_n and_o the_o fitness_n of_o this_o above_o all_o other_o day_n i_o will_v i_o can_v persuade_v those_o that_o be_v convince_v of_o its_o morality_n to_o spend_v a_o great_a part_n of_o it_o in_o this_o true_a spirituality_n but_o we_o do_v in_o this_o as_o in_o most_o thing_n else_o think_v it_o enough_o that_o we_o believe_v our_o duty_n as_o we_o do_v the_o article_n of_o our_o faith_n and_o let_v who_o will_v put_v it_o in_o practice_n we_o will_v dispute_v for_o duty_n and_o let_v other_o perform_v it_o as_o i_o have_v know_v some_o drunkard_n upon_o the_o ale_n bench_n will_v plead_v for_o godly_a man_n while_o themselves_o be_v ungodly_a so_o do_v too_o many_o for_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n who_o themselves_o be_v unacquainted_a with_o this_o spiritual_a part_n of_o its_o observation_n christian_n let_v heaven_n have_v some_o more_o share_n in_o your_o sabbath_n where_o you_o must_v short_o keep_v your_o everlasting_a sabbath_n as_o you_o go_v from_o stair_n to_o stair_n till_o you_o come_v to_o the_o top_n so_o use_v your_o sabbath_n as_o step_n to_o glory_n till_o you_o have_v passs_v they_o all_o and_o be_v there_o arrive_v especial_o you_o that_o be_v poor_a man_n and_o servant_n that_o can_v take_v time_n in_o the_o week_n as_o you_o desire_v see_v that_o
