think_v we_o have_v already_o declare_v one_o occasion_n of_o it_o when_o we_o make_v mention_v of_o the_o difference_n between_o they_o in_o life_n and_o manner_n annib._n you_o say_v true_a but_o as_o that_o occasion_n be_v common_a to_o the_o master_n and_o the_o servant_n for_o here_o be_v two_o other_o whereof_o the_o one_o depend_v of_o the_o master_n the_o other_o of_o the_o servant_n to_o the_o one_o it_o belong_v to_o command_v to_o the_o other_o to_o serve_v so_o that_o if_o either_o of_o they_o fail_v in_o their_o charge_n there_o grow_v between_o they_o trouble_v and_o disorder_n the_o master_n commit_v a_o fault_n when_o he_o know_v not_o how_o to_o command_v and_o therefore_o the_o philosopher_n say_v well_o that_o it_o behoove_v the_o master_n first_o to_o know_v how_o to_o command_v those_o thing_n which_o the_o servant_n ought_v to_o do_v but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o easy_a a_o matter_n to_o know_v how_o to_o command_v as_o it_o be_v to_o be_v a_o master_n guaz._n you_o must_v then_o prescribe_v unto_o the_o master_n the_o manner_n of_o command_v annib._n the_o manner_n be_v set_v down_o if_o that_o he_o set_v service_n before_o command_v that_o be_v if_o he_o learn_v to_o serve_v before_o he_o begin_v to_o command_v guaz._n i_o be_o of_o that_o mind_n for_o i_o think_v it_o a_o matter_n impossible_a that_o he_o shall_v know_v how_o to_o play_v the_o master_n well_o who_o never_o have_v master_n and_o for_o that_o cause_n i_o will_v not_o change_v the_o duke_n my_o master_n for_o the_o emperor_n for_o be_v use_v even_o from_o his_o infancy_n

of_o the_o service_n which_o he_o do_v himself_o i_o have_v note_v two_o good_a effect_n the_o one_o in_o that_o endure_a much_o travail_n both_o in_o mind_n and_o body_n he_o know_v by_o himself_o the_o pain_n of_o his_o own_o servant_n by_o reason_n whereof_o move_v with_o pity_v he_o behold_v they_o with_o a_o more_o gracious_a eye_n and_o command_v they_o more_o gentlye_o the_o other_o for_o that_o notwithstanding_o he_o be_v a_o great_a prince_n and_o may_v live_v at_o his_o ease_n his_o servant_n see_v he_o serve_v continual_o be_v stir_v up_o by_o his_o example_n to_o render_v he_o

that_o he_o have_v mo_z servant_n throughout_o all_o europe_n then_o in_o his_o own_o court_n but_o these_o time_n be_v so_o unfortunate_a that_o there_o be_v no_o homer_n to_o set_v forth_o the_o

to_o obey_v and_o for_o that_o few_o master_n can_v do_v that_o there_o be_v find_v almost_o in_o everye_o house_n master_n that_o be_v undiscreete_a proud_a fantastical_a and_o insolent_a which_o

no_o speech_n unto_o they_o but_o full_a of_o terrify_v threaten_a and_o revile_v guaz._n of_o such_o manner_n of_o deal_v it_o come_v that_o servant_n though_o good_a and_o sufficient_a begin_v to_o grow_v naught_o and_o to_o wax_v cold_a in_o goodwill_n and_o negligent_a in_o duty_n towards_o their_o master_n but_o those_o master_n be_v more_o undiscreet_a which_o brawl_n and_o chide_v with_o their_o servant_n before_o stranger_n whereby_o in_o my_o mind_n they_o make_v the_o stranger_n think_v they_o be_v scarce_o welcome_a to_o their_o house_n and_o beside_o spite_n thereby_o their_o servant_n the_o most_o of_o any_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n for_o proof_n whereof_o when_o a_o servant_n seek_v a_o master_n he_o never_o inquire_v whether_o he_o be_v covetous_a or_o of_o a_o ill_a
