may_v observe_v how_o the_o child_n will_v turn_v and_o wind_n himself_o in-to_a the_o parent_n the_o child_n will_v make_v the_o parent_n believe_v that_o he_o can_v no_o way_n skill_n of_o the_o

be_v as_o wise_a as_o a_o serpent_n for_o the_o child_n be_v not_o so_o innocent_a as_o a_o dove_n it_o be_v the_o very_a masterpiece_n of_o a_o child_n cunning_a to_o deceive_v and_o hurt_v itself_o a_o parent_n then_o must_v not_o hearken_v to_o the_o child_n but_o to_o his_o own_o discern_v of_o the_o child_n part_n and_o according_o he_o must_v fit_v he_o with_o general_a instruction_n make_v he_o as_o capable_a as_o he_o may_v and_o ready_o gird_v for_o any_o course_n but_o for_o the_o design_v the_o child_n to_o this_o or_o that_o call_n require_v a_o clear_a insight_n unto_o the_o
