Some there be who make the Time mutable and various; [ 3] affirming,* 1.1 that God hath not fixed any set time, or that he stands upon, or would have his people troubled with such Niceties; so long as the day be observed (say they) it is no matter when it be begun: nor do they make this variation to be according to that which God allows (suppose from Sun to
Sun, sooner or later as the time of the yeere is) but according to the civill customs of severall Nations, as they variously be∣gin or end their daies among whom they live; as suppose they live among Romans, (they think) they may begin it at mid∣night; if with Babylonians, at Sun-rising; if among Grecians, at Sun-set; if among Umbrians and Arabians, at mid-day.
