in_o the_o romish_a church_n disdain_v to_o use_v the_o term_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n have_v sum_v up_o the_o ten_o commandment_n in_o french_a rhyme_n and_o so_o read_v they_o to_o the_o people_n they_o have_v do_v also_o with_o the_o commandment_n of_o their_o church_n and_o say_v they_o public_o after_o this_o manner_n the_o church_n command_v every_o one_o to_o sanctify_v the_o holy_a day_n on_o every_o sabbath_n hear_v the_o mass_n they_o must_v and_o one_o the_o feast_n likewise_o all_o lent_n four_o time_n and_o saint_n eve_n for_o to_o fast_o and_o no_o flesh_n

remember_v when_o i_o be_v a_o little_a child_n they_o teach_v we_o only_o six_o and_o i_o have_v see_v for_o a_o long_a time_n the_o commandment_n of_o the_o church_n but_o six_o in_o number_n but_o within_o this_o little_a time_n that_o of_o tithe_n be_v creep_v into_o the_o book_n and_o be_v read_v at_o this_o day_n with_o their_o other_o commandment_n as_o of_o equal_a obligation_n with_o the_o rest_n which_o be_v obligation_n of_o damnation_n and_o eternal_a death_n according_a to_o their_o common_a doctrine_n for_o they_o teach_v and_o all_o their_o doctor_n and_o canonist_n hold_v that_o those_o commandment_n of_o the_o church_n be_v of_o the_o obligation_n of_o mortal_a sin_n as_o well_o as_o the_o ten_o commandment_n of_o god_n although_o there_o be_v no_o mention_n make_v thereof_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n which_o be_v proper_o to_o go_v beyond_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n with_o the_o tradition_n of_o man_n and_o however_o they_o seem_v to_o be_v but_o seven_o commandment_n notwithstanding_o they_o will_v be_v find_v to_o be_v about_o 300._o or_o more_o which_o every_o christian_a be_v oblige_v to_o accomplish_v every_o year_n under_o pain_n of_o

the_o obligation_n we_o owe_v to_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n this_o may_v be_v clear_o prove_v after_o this_o manner_n for_o the_o first_o commandment_n which_o oblige_v man_n to_o sanctify_v all_o the_o feast_n institute_v that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o all_o the_o holy_a day_n which_o be_v command_v by_o the_o romish_a church_n be_v observe_v and_o keep_v as_o the_o sunday_n and_o that_o
