¶ The fourth Sermon.
THE fourth Commandment of the 1first table, is word for word as followeth. Remember that thou keep holy the Sabbath day. Six days thou shalt labour and do all thy works, but on the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God, in which thou shalt not do any manner of work, neither thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy man servant, nor thy maid servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger which is within thy gates. Because in six days the Lord made heaven, and earth, the sea and all that is therein, and rested the seventh day, Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.
