yet_o see_v good_a effect_n and_o godly_a fruit_n in_o their_o child_n &_o servant_n how_o much_o more_o cause_n of_o grief_n may_v they_o have_v when_o they_o have_v use_v and_o bestow_v no_o

for_o the_o one_o that_o will_v not_o be_v any_o thing_n move_v for_o the_o other_o wherefore_o let_v all_o parent_n and_o master_n of_o family_n know_v and_o learn_v that_o if_o

beside_o the_o secret_a counsel_n of_o the_o lord_n herein_o we_o must_v know_v that_o neither_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v so_o universal_a that_o every_o particular_a child_n of_o a_o

either_o by_o some_o good_a token_n may_v see_v they_o the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o heir_n of_o the_o covenant_n or_o at_o least_o be_v comfort_v in_o their_o own_o conscience_n if_o their_o child_n for_o some_o cause_n unknown_a refuse_v it_o in_o that_o to_o the_o uttermost_a of_o their_o ability_n they_o have_v use_v all_o good_a and_o godly_a mean_n to_o bring_v they_o up_o well_o &_o offer_v

the_o one_o that_o will_v not_o for_o the_o other_o wherefore_o let_v we_o learn_v if_o we_o wish_v to_o convey_v god_n his_o blessing_n to_o our_o posterity_n let_v we_o use_v the_o duty_n thereunto_o let_v we_o if_o we_o be_v loath_a to_o convey_v god_n his_o judgement_n to_o our_o child_n careful_o avoid_v the_o mean_n unto_o it_o and_o sure_o as_o it_o be_v a_o bless_a thing_n in_o
