to_o all_o these_o that_o observe_v day_n month_n time_n and_o year_n this_o be_v write_v that_o they_o may_v see_v whether_o they_o follow_v the_o example_n and_o doctrine_n of_o the_o apostle_n or_o whether_o they_o be_v such_o as_o the_o apostle_n testify_v against_o to_o keep_v a_o day_n holy_a to_o the_o lord_n be_v not_o displease_v but_o acceptable_a to_o he_o and_o therefore_o he_o that_o regard_v a_o day_n let_v he_o regard_v it_o to_o the_o lord_n and_o not_o judge_v he_o that_o do_v not_o regard_v it_o for_o the_o apostle_n say_v one_o man_n esteem_v one_o day_n above_o another_o another_o esteem_v every_o day_n alike_o let_v every_o man_n be_v full_o persuade_v in_o his_o own_o mind_n this_o be_v the_o apostle_n doctrine_n who_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n he_o do_v not_o judge_v the_o one_o nor_o the_o other_o but_o say_v let_v every_o man_n be_v full_o persuade_v in_o his_o own_o mind_n mark_v that_o all_o you_o that_o observe_v day_n and_o time_n and_o consider_v well_o whether_o you_o regard_v the_o day_n to_o the_o lord_n or_o you_o observe_v it_o to_o the_o satisfy_n of_o your_o lust_n for_o such_o observation_n of_o day_n be_v not_o acceptable_a with_o the_o lord_n to_o wit_n to_o observe_v they_o to_o satisfy_v your_o lust_n and_o live_v in_o pleasure_n and_o vain_a delight_n this_o be_v not_o a_o keep_n the_o day_n holy_a but_o rather_o profane_v it_o and_o against_o such_o observation_n the_o apostle_n write_v when_o he_o say_v how_o turn_v you_o again_o to_o these_o weak_a and_o beggarly_a element_n where_o unto_o you_o desire_v again_o to_o be_v in_o bondage_n you_o observe_v day_n and_o month_n time_n and_o year_n i_o be_o afraid_a of_o you_o lest_o i_o have_v bestow_v upon_o you_o labour_v in_o vain_a so_o here_o you_o may_v see_v though_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o judge_v he_o that_o regard_v a_o day_n to_o the_o lord_n yet_o he_o reprove_v those_o that_o have_v know_v god_n or_o rather_o be_v know_v of_o he_o who_o turn_v again_o to_o those_o weak_a and_o beggarly_a element_n and_o he_o be_v afraid_a lest_o he_o have_v best●wed_v labour_n in_o vain_a and_o therefore_o all_o you_o that_o observe_v day_n and_o time_n take_v heed_n that_o you_o be_v not_o in_o bondage_n to_o your_o lust_n you_o that_o observe_v a_o day_n for_o christ_n nativity_n as_o you_o say_v take_v heed_n that_o you_o spend_v not_o away_o your_o time_n in_o vanity_n and_o the_o pleasure_n of_o the_o flesh_n for_o they_o that_o do_v so_o will_v crucify_v the_o just_a and_o holy_a one_o much_o like_o those_o who_o build_v the_o tomb_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o garnish_v the_o sepulcher_n of_o the_o righteous_a and_o say_v if_o we_o have_v be_v in_o the_o day_n of_o our_o father_n we_o will_v not_o have_v slay_v the_o prophet_n and_o yet_o those_o put_v christ_n to_o death_n of_o who_o the_o prophet_n prophesy_v and_o so_o you_o say_v now_o you_o will_v not_o have_v crucify_a christ_n nor_o put_v stephen_n to_o death_n and_o you_o observe_v a_o day_n for_o he_o but_o consider_v if_o one_o come_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o bear_v a_o testimony_n against_o your_o temple_n and_o worship_n as_o stephen_n do_v against_o they_o and_o tell_v you_o that_o you_o be_v stiff-necked_a and_o uncir_n cumcise_v in_o heart_n and_o ear_n etc._n etc._n will_v not_o the_o same_o spirit_n of_o wrath_n and_o envy_n arise_v in_o you_o as_o it_o do_v in_o they_o and_o so_o you_o will_v make_v it_o manifest_v you_o be_v of_o that_o generation_n that_o put_v stephen_n to_o death_n though_o you_o keep_v his_o day_n but_o what_o do_v you_o keep_v it_o for_o do_v you_o keep_v it_o in_o remembrance_n of_o his_o martyrdom_n if_o so_o how_o dare_v you_o feast_n and_o rejoice_v as_o if_o you_o be_v glad_a of_o his_o death_n do_v you_o not_o herein_o justify_v the_o deed_n of_o that_o generation_n who_o slay_v he_o and_o why_o do_v you_o keep_v a_o day_n for_o the_o innocent_a child_n who_o herod_n slay_v or_o cause_v to_o be_v slay_v and_o why_o do_v you_o feast_v upon_o it_o and_o make_v merry_a do_v you_o not_o herein_o justify_v herod_n fact_n and_o so_o become_v guilty_a of_o innocent_a blood_n consider_v well_o upon_o these_o thing_n and_o who_o it_o be_v that_o first_o command_v these_o day_n to_o be_v keep_v be_v it_o not_o the_o pope_n for_o the_o apostle_n do_v not_o command_v saint_n day_n to_o be_v keep_v but_o say_v he_o that_o regard_v a_o day_n regard_v it_o to_o the_o lord_n he_o do_v not_o say_v he_o regard_v it_o to_o saint_n and_o so_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o the_o observation_n of_o saint_n day_n be_v come_v up_o in_o the_o night_n of_o darkness_n and_o apostasy_n since_o the_o apostle_n and_o not_o by_o their_o command_n or_o example_n and_o further_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o he_o who_o be_v far_a from_o a_o saint_n life_n will_v contend_v most_o for_o a_o saint_n day_n even_o the_o drunkard_n swearer_n and_o most_o profane_a will_v be_v ready_a to_o do_v mischief_n to_o the_o man_n that_o do_v but_o follow_v his_o lawful_a employment_n upon_o such_o a_o day_n as_o they_o call_v holy_a now_o whether_o be_v it_o more_o unholinesle_n for_o a_o man_n to_o follow_v his_o lawful_a employment_n or_o for_o a_o man_n to_o be_v drink_v swear_v game_n and_o follow_v the_o pleasure_n of_o the_o flesh_n consider_v well_o upon_o these_o thing_n and_o dishonour_v not_o the_o lord_n god_n by_o do_v wicked_o while_o you_o profess_v you_o honour_v his_o saint_n oh_o the_o abomination_n that_o be_v commit_v in_o this_o nation_n and_o throughout_o christendom_n under_o pretence_n of_o keep_v saint_n day_n and_o christimas_n as_o it_o be_v call_v and_o where_o have_v you_o that_o name_n but_o from_o the_o pope_n if_o you_o have_v it_o not_o from_o he_o tell_v we_o where_o you_o have_v it_o and_o who_o be_v the_o first_o author_n of_o it_o and_o of_o the_o penalty_n for_o not_o keep_v it_o and_o whether_o be_v not_o the_o inflict_a

no_o penalty_n put_v upon_o one_o nor_o other_o but_o this_o and_o they_o be_v not_o to_o judge_v one_o another_o about_o day_n nor_o meat_n nor_o drink_n as_o you_o may_v read_v rom._n 14._o and_o be_v it_o not_o a_o cause_v the_o people_n to_o sin_n to_o impose_v thing_n upon_o they_o as_o meat_n drink_n and_o day_n in_o which_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n do_v not_o stand_v see_v the_o apostle_n say_v he_o that_o doubt_v be_v damn_v if_o he_o eat_v mark_v that_o because_o he_o eat_v not_o of_o faith_n for_o whatsoever_o be_v not_o of_o faith_n be_v sin_n and_o faith_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n which_o give_v victory_n over_o the_o world_n in_o which_o we_o have_v unity_n with_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n and_o with_o the_o saint_n and_o keep_v the_o day_n to_o the_o lord_n holy_a mark_v that_o in_o the_o faith_n which_o purify_v the_o heart_n the_o day_n be_v keep_v holy_a which_o faith_n stand_v in_o christ_n the_o power_n of_o god_n by_o who_o all_o thing_n

therefore_o you_o who_o be_v in_o authority_n take_v heed_n that_o the_o observation_n of_o day_n be_v not_o impose_v upon_o any_o especial_o those_o call_v saint_n day_n lest_o thereby_o you_o
