Sivu 124 - Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work : but the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God : in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates...

Sivu 304 - ... heare and see them. The places where they played them was in every streete.

Sivu 136 - Friend's house, where in those times, not only the monthly meeting for business, but the public meeting for worship, was sometimes kept. A very solemn meeting it was, and in a weighty frame of spirit we were, in which we sensibly felt the Lord with us and joining us ; the sense whereof remained with us all our life-time, and was of good service, and very comfortable to us on all occasions.
