learn_v all_o this_o you_o may_v do_v well_o to_o acquaint_v they_o with_o the_o point_n or_o mark_n or_o stop_v in_o read_v which_o be_v these_o fix_v before_o set_v down_o in_o the_o alphabet_n where_o you_o must_v first_o give_v they_o their_o name_n as_o before_o annex_v to_o their_o mark_n so_o as_o when_o see_v any_o of_o they_o the_o learner_n may_v say_v that_o this_o crook_n be_v a_o

sentence_n take_v away_o or_o leave_v out_o the_o sense_n yet_o will_v remain_v entire_a when_o also_o you_o may_v tell_v they_o the_o meaning_n of_o those_o mark_n at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o small_a

let_v they_o keep_v to_o these_o set_a form_n of_o letter_n till_o they_o can_v perfect_o write_v according_a to_o these_o copy_n in_o either_o hand_n and_o then_o they_o may_v easy_o vary_v and_o

viii_o in_o the_o four_o page_n before_o where_o you_o may_v show_v and_o pose_v they_o in_o most_o of_o all_o these_o particulars_n where_o you_o have_v most_o of_o all_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o

you_o may_v make_v use_n of_o that_o piece_n of_o scripture_n you_o thus_o pose_v they_o in_o or_o choose_v some_o other_o easy_a and_o short_a sentence_n as_o some_o one_o or_o other_o of_o they_o set_v down_o in_o the_o three_o page_n before_o that_o scripture_n as_o come_v you_o child_n etc._n etc._n or_o let_v we_o hear_v the_o conclusion_n etc._n etc._n or_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v the_o begin_n of_o wisdom_n etc._n etc._n when_o and_o wherein_o be_v not_o too_o press_v to_o teach_v they_o too_o much_o at_o once_o nor_o let_v they_o shufflle_v it_o over_o by_o half_n but_o go_v on_o by_o leisure_n three_o or_o four_o word_n at_o most_o at_o a_o time_n and_o they_o well_o learn_v and_o understand_v before_o you_o go_v any_o further_o then_o when_o those_o three_o or_o four_o word_n be_v so_o well_o learn_v go_v on_o to_o three_o or_o four_o more_o till_o in_o that_o manner_n you_o have_v go_v through_o the_o whole_a sentence_n these_o with_o one_o two_o or_o three_o sentence_n thus_o well_o learn_v may_v you_o proceed_v with_o they_o to_o that_o scripture_n or_o rather_o if_o you_o will_v to_o the_o creed_n or_o commandment_n or_o lord_n prayer_n and_o then_o after_o to_o some_o psalm_n or_o what_o other_o chapter_n or_o piece_n of_o the_o bible_n or_o what_o other_o english_a book_n you_o will_n and_o observe_v this_o method_n first_o take_v three_o or_o four_o word_n than_o a_o line_n or_o a_o verse_n than_o a_o page_n than_o a_o leaf_n as_o their_o capacity_n and_o delight_n will_v follow_v it_o they_o will_v in_o a_o short_a time_n

be_v worth_a for_o now_o all_o this_o in_o some_o measure_n well_o perform_v may_v you_o go_v on_o to_o propose_v unto_o they_o the_o learning_n of_o some_o plain_a and_o easy_a catechism_n or_o rather_o indeed_o between_o while_n in_o the_o learning_n to_o read_v let_v child_n and_o servant_n though_o as_o yet_o they_o can_v read_v be_v come_v to_o some_o knowledge_n be_v teach_v to_o answer_v without_o book_n to_o the_o question_n in_o this_o before_o or_o the_o like_a short_a catechism_n and_o so_o without_o book_n learn_v it_o as_o they_o may_v instruct_v one_o another_o one_o by_o question_v and_o another_o by_o answer_v instrustion_n for_o the_o teacher_n which_o short_a catechism_n be_v thus_o learn_v may_v you_o do_v well_o next_o to_o proceed_v to_o this_o or_o the_o like_a exposition_n of_o it_o that_o so_o you_o may_v not_o only_o have_v the_o direct_a question_n and_o answer_n as_o before_o in_o that_o short_a catechism_n but_o to_o the_o better_a open_n to_o the_o understanding_n thereof_o by_o further_a explication_n teach_v the_o meaning_n of_o they_o and_o that_o too_o by_o way_n of_o question_n and_o answer_n here_o and_o there_o insert_v some_o

as_o occasion_n serve_v upon_o the_o question_n or_o answer_n produce_v proof_n of_o scripture_n for_o your_o exposition_n and_o cause_v still_o the_o learner_n where_o need_n be_v to_o
