Thesis 198.
If we speak of the law of corrupt nature largely taken, [ 198] for that law which when 'tis made known by divine deter∣mination and declaration is both sutable and congruous to naturall reason and equity, we may then say that the Law of the Sabbath is according to the light of nature, even of corrupt nature it self: for do but suppose that God is to be worshipped, and then these three things appear to be most equall. 1. That he is not only to have a time, but a speciall time and a fit proportion of time for worship. 2. That it's most meet that he should make this proportion. 3. The Lord having given man six daies and taken a Seventh to himself, mans reason cannot but confesse that it is most just to dedicate that time to God: and for my own part I think that in this respect the law of the Sabbath was as fair∣ly writ on mans hea•••• in innocency as many other morall laws, which none question the morality of at this day: but disputes about this are herein perhaps uselesse.
