rshipped in the publike congregation, I say the
true God is truly praised in his true Saints; on our holie daies the
sacraments are rightly ministred, the Scriptures are fruitfully read,
the Word is faithfully preached; all which are maine meanes to withdraw
men not only from superstition and idolatrie, but also from all sortes
of error and impietie whatsoeuer.

had diuers other feasts; as _Easter_, _the feast of vnleauened bread_,
_the feast of first fruits_, _Whitsuntide_, _the feast of blowing
Trumpets_, _the feast of Tabernacles_; all which (as we reade Leuiticus
