sanctifi_v the_o sabbath_n and_o again_o by_o rest_v if_o it_o be_v carnal_a and_o unfruitful_a he_o may_v profane_v it_o second_o to_o argue_v from_o the_o profane_v to_o the_o sanctify_a be_v no_o

on_o the_o seven_o day_n do_v profane_v the_o sabbath_n and_o break_v the_o commandment_n yet_o on_o the_o contrary_a every_o one_o that_o do_v rest_n can_v be_v say_v to_o sanctify_v it_o no_o more_o
