then_o they_o give_v their_o child_n some_o good_a instruction_n that_o then_o they_o be_v discharge_v before_o god_n &_o that_o they_o have_v perform_v a_o very_a great_a duty_n but_o alas_o this_o

imprint_v the_o second_o principal_a want_n be_v the_o want_n of_o government_n as_o when_o parent_n teach_v their_o child_n good_a thing_n but_o do_v not_o look_v diligent_o after_o the_o practice_n of_o they_o nor_o see_v how_o they_o take_v root_n in_o they_o this_o be_v but_o a_o dead_a kind_n of_o teach_v &_o therefore_o lose_v his_o fruit_n but_o they_o do_v worst_a of_o all_o who_o after_o

fruit_n of_o his_o teach_n but_o also_o wall_n it_o about_o with_o his_o diligent_a govern_v that_o in_o the_o end_n it_o be_v not_o lose_v 3._o the_o three_o reason_n be_v draw_v from_o the_o true_a
