constant_a succession_n to_o the_o first_o seven_o day_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n and_o indeed_o the_o seven_o part_n of_o time_n can_v be_v translate_v to_o any_o other_o day_n of_o the_o

therefore_o it_o will_v have_v be_v a_o great_a dishonour_n to_o christ_n who_o be_v make_v of_o god_n to_o be_v both_o the_o lord_n of_o his_o church_n and_o the_o lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n if_o

of_o his_o public_a worship_n arbitrary_a there_o be_v as_o much_o reason_n for_o the_o one_o as_o for_o the_o other_o for_o jesus_n christ_n by_o his_o death_n have_v make_v as_o much_o alteration_n

to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n without_o any_o intermission_n or_o loss_n of_o time_n the_o order_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n of_o the_o first_o table_n lie_v thus_o 1_o the_o first_o
