there_o be_v no_o other_o god_n but_o this_o i_o say_v he_o do_v as_o god_n in_o union_n with_o the_o father_n and_o holy_a ghost_n not_o as_o christ_n god_n and_o man_n our_o mediator_n and_o

ever_o it_o be_v observe_v by_o man_n till_o after_o the_o israelite_n come_v out_o of_o egypt_n or_o express_o command_v so_o to_o be_v nor_o do_v i_o find_v that_o any_o other_o nation_n beside_o

for_o more_o than_o two_o thousand_o five_o hundred_o year_n from_o the_o first_o creation_n it_o be_v not_o necessary_a that_o we_o have_v express_v word_n of_o command_n record_v we_o have_v no_o

be_v god_n will_n according_a to_o the_o best_a light_n we_o have_v if_o this_o gentleman_n think_v himself_o oblige_v to_o keep_v the_o jewish_a sabbath_n also_o this_o do_v not_o hurt_v we_o this_o i_o think_v be_v the_o case_n of_o the_o christian_a jew_n at_o first_o i_o do_v not_o much_o question_n but_o that_o they_o do_v as_o other_o christian_n observe_v the_o lord_n day_n the_o doubt_n be_v whether_o they_o be_v not_o to_o observe_v also_o the_o jewish_a sabbath_n as_o before_o they_o do_v and_o these_o believer_n who_o be_v yet_o zealous_a of_o the_o law_n and_o think_v themselves_o oblige_v together_o with_o christianity_n to_o observe_v the_o law_n of_o moses_n do_v no_o doubt_n think_v themselves_o equal_o oblige_v to_o the_o jewish_a sabbath_n those_o who_o think_v themselves_o oblige_v to_o be_v baptise_a and_o to_o be_v circumcise_a also_o think_v themselves_o in_o like_a manner_n oblige_v to_o observe_v the_o lord_n day_n and_o also_o the_o jewish_a

1._o let_v he_o begin_v his_o week_n on_o monday_n and_o then_o sunday_n will_v be_v the_o seven_o day_n whether_o the_o seven_o in_o course_n from_o the_o creation_n i_o can_v tell_v nor_o can_v any_o man_n live_v inform_v i_o but_o it_o will_v at_o least_o be_v the_o seven_o day_n of_o his_o week_n 2._o if_o he_o be_v not_o satisfy_v with_o this_o my_o next_o expedient_a be_v thus_o let_v he_o take_v a_o voyage_n round_o the_o world_n as_o sir_n francis_n drake_n do_v go_v out_o of_o the_o atlantic_a ocean_n westward_o by_o the_o straits_n of_o magellan_n to_o the_o east-indies_n and_o then_o from_o the_o east_n return_v by_o the_o cape_n of_o good_a hope_n the_o usual_a way_n homeward_o and_o take_v with_o he_o as_o many_o as_o please_v of_o those_o who_o be_v of_o his_o mind_n and_o let_v they_o keep_v their_o saturday-sabbath_n all_o the_o way_n when_o they_o come_v home_o to_o england_n they_o will_v find_v their_o saturday_n to_o fall_v upon_o our_o sunday_n and_o they_o may_v thenceforth_o continue_v to_o observe_v their_o saturday-sabbath_n on_o the_o same_o day_n with_o we_o which_o be_v the_o second_o expedient_a if_o you_o ask_v how_o this_o can_v be_v i_o will_v make_v it_o very_o plain_a that_o so_o it_o will_v be_v and_o so_o it_o must_v be_v for_o suppose_v the_o earth_n to_o be_v round_o and_o the_o sun_n move_v from_o east_n to_o west_n you_o must_v allow_v that_o it_o come_v soon_o to_o the_o eastern_a part_n than_o to_o the_o western_a it_o will_v soon_o be_v noon_n in_o holland_n than_o in_o england_n and_o soon_o hear_v than_o in_o ireland_n if_o you_o ask_v how_o much_o soon_o we_o say_v that_o fifteen_o degree_n of_o longitude_n westward_o make_v it_o a_o hour_n late_a as_o if_o he_o embark_v about_o dover_n yarmouth_n or_o other_o port_n on_o the_o east-side_n of_o england_n and_o sail_v as_o far_o westward_o as_o the_o west_n of_o ireland_n or_o a_o little_a far_o it_o will_v be_v a_o hour_n late_a and_o not_o be_v noon_n there_o till_o it_o be_v one_o a_o clock_n at_o the_o place_n where_o he_o embark_v and_o so_o in_o proportion_n a_o hour_n for_o every_o fifteen_o degree_n and_o according_o when_o he_o have_v go_v round_o the_o whole_a circle_n of_o three_o hundred_o and_o sixty_o degree_n that_o be_v four_o and_o twenty_o time_n fifteen_o it_o will_v be_v late_a by_o four_o and_o twenty_o hour_n that_o be_v it_o will_v be_v but_o saturday-noon_n with_o he_o when_o it_o be_v sundaynoon_n with_o those_o who_o stay_v here_o that_o be_v his_o saturday_n will_v be_v our_o sunday_n and_o thenceforth_o his_o saturday-sabbath_n will_v be_v the_o same_o day_n with_o our_o sunday-sabbath_n ever_o after_o and_o this_o i_o think_v shall_v full_o satisfy_v he_o for_o he_o tell_v we_o p._n 39_o the_o variety_n of_o the_o time_n of_o the_o sunrising_n or_o set_v in_o different_a climate_n do_v no_o way_n disturb_v for_o that_o a_o day_n long_o or_o short_a be_v still_o a_o day_n and_o but_o a_o day_n most_o

must_v be_v nor_o be_v there_o any_o thing_n of_o divine_a institution_n that_o i_o know_v of_o to_o determine_v where_o it_o shall_v be_v it_o seem_v to_o i_o to_o be_v prudential_n or_o most_o rational_a if_o nothing_o intervene_v to_o counterbalance_v it_o to_o be_v at_o what_o we_o call_v the_o first_o meridian_n from_o whence_o we_o reckon_v the_o degree_n of_o longitude_n eastward_o 1_o

the_o sailor_n round_o the_o world_n shall_v rectify_v their_o account_n call_v it_o saturday_n on_o the_o one_o side_n of_o it_o and_o sunday_n on_o the_o other_o that_o be_v the_o late_a of_o
