but albeit he be censured as a Zealot, yet surely there is no colour why he should be thought to Judaize in this. And let Bishop Nazianzene pass under the same censure with them; who as Dialericus upon the 17. Dominical after Trinity Sunday allegeth him, professeth that the sanctification of the Sabbath consists not in the hilarity of our bodies, nor in the variety of glorious garments, nor in eatings, the fruit whereof we know to be wantonness, nor in strewing of Flowers in the ways, which we know to be the manner of the Gentiles; but rather in the purity of the soul, and cheerfulness of the mind, and pious Meditations, as when we use holy Hymns in stead of Tabers, and Psalms in stead of, wicked songs and dancings. The same Dialericus allegeth Pope Gregory out of his 91. book of his Epistles and 3. Epistle affirming, That therefore on the Lords Day we ought to rest from all Earthly work, and by all means insist on prayer, that if ought hath been committed by us negligently on the six days on the day of the Lords Resurrection it might be cleared by prayers. And which is yet more, out of Chrysostom 5. Homily on Matthew he shows, how in that Bishops judgement we should be exercised on the Lords Day, in our private Families, thus, When we depart from the Ecclesiastical assembly, we ought not in any case entangle our selves in businesses of a contrary nature, but as soon as we come home, turn over the Holy Scriptures, and call thy Wife, and thy Children to confer about those things which have been delivered; and after they have been deeply rooted in our minds, then to proceed to provide for such things as are necessary for this life. So anciently is the ⟨p. 174⟩pious exercise of repeating Sermons commended unto us by this holy Bishop, which in these days I have heard to be cried down, by profane persons, as a cause of increase of Brownism. And I willingly confess that when I first came to this place, there were no less then ten that partly had withdrawn themselves, partly were upon the point of withdrawing themselves from our Common Prayers; but within a short time there was not one such to be found amongst us, and so we have continued to this day.
