it_o shall_v be_v know_v if_o you_o be_v my_o disciple_n the_o first_o thing_n that_o shall_v be_v do_v in_o the_o morning_n after_o our_o people_n have_v wash_v and_o be_v ready_a and_o have_v be_v at_o their_o private_a devotion_n which_o shall_v all_o be_v do_v at_o six_o of_o the_o clock_n there_o be_v a_o hour_n allow_v for_o that_o and_o their_o dress_n be_v call_v up_o to_o rise_v at_o five_o of_o the_o clock_n at_o far_a then_o just_a at_o six_o of_o the_o clock_n a_o bell_n have_v toll_v they_o shall_v repair_v to_o the_o common_a hall_n where_o there_o shall_v be_v make_v a_o

every_o one_o also_o shall_v prepare_v for_o work_n and_o shall_v work_v three_o or_o four_o hour_n or_o more_o as_o it_o shall_v be_v best_o determine_v then_o the_o bell_n shall_v toll_v again_o and_o every_o one_o shall_v wash_v and_o clean_o himself_o and_o all_o thing_n be_v dispose_v of_o and_o the_o last_o sign_n of_o the_o bell_n be_v give_v all_o shall_v repair_v to_o the_o hall_n again_o where_o the_o whole_a service_n shall_v be_v read_v and_o after_o that_o a_o portion_n of_o some_o book_n of_o devotion_n then_o will_v follow_v the_o dinner_n before_o and_o after_o which_o grace_n shall_v be_v say_v and_o after_o some_o conversation_n after_o dinner_n there_o shall_v be_v song_n a_o spiritual_a hymn_n before_o they_o return_v to_o work_v and_o thus_o they_o shall_v spend_v their_o time_n much_o after_o the_o division_n and_o designment_n of_o it_o that_o have_v be_v mention_v they_o may_v dine_v about_o one_o and_o sup_v about_o seven_o immediate_o also_o before_o supper_n the_o service_n shall_v again_o be_v read_v and_o at_o night_n the_o last_o thing_n that_o shall_v be_v do_v in_o public_a before_o they_o part_v shall_v be_v to_o worship_n god_n by_o prayer_n and_o devotion_n woman_n that_o be_v nurse_n shall_v be_v oblige_v in_o the_o day_n time_n to_o go_v now_o and_o then_o to_o their_o child_n which_o may_v be_v leave_v several_a

for_o christian_n to_o live_v much_o after_o that_o manner_n i_o do_v not_o doubt_v but_o that_o a_o thousand_o difficulty_n and_o objection_n will_v be_v raise_v against_o this_o manner_n of_o live_v but_o be_v satisfy_v they_o will_v be_v vain_a and_o frivolous_a one_o be_v we_o will_v suppose_v all_o reasonable_a person_n capable_a to_o discern_v their_o vanity_n and_o those_o that_o be_v not_o reasonable_a will_v yield_v to_o no_o reason_n we_o will_v only_o answer_v some_o few_o to_o serve_v for_o instance_n of_o the_o rest_n it_o will_v first_o be_v object_v that_o four_o hundred_o a_o year_n can_v suffice_v to_o maintain_v our_o four_o parish_n according_a to_o the_o description_n i_o have_v give_v of_o their_o way_n of_o live_v and_o likewise_o maintain_v the_o landlord_n and_o his_o family_n i_o answer_v if_o that_o will_v do_v then_o allow_v more_o i_o do_v not_o enter_v into_o that_o disquisition_n but_o this_o i_o say_v that_o if_o all_o man_n thus_o do_v work_v alike_o and_o all_o possesed_a the_o earth_n alike_o and_o busy_v themselves_o about_o no_o employment_n but_o what_o be_v necessary_a they_o will_v all_o live_v as_o well_o at_o least_o as_o i_o have_v represent_v our_o parishioner_n to_o do_v then_o there_o be_v no_o more_o to_o be_v do_v but_o to_o allow_v they_o such_o a_o estate_n for_o their_o number_n as_o will_v fall_v to_o their_o share_n if_o the_o earth_n be_v equal_o divide_v among_o all_o man_n that_o be_v what_o will_v be_v abundant_o sufficient_a to_o keep_v they_o well_o suppose_v they_o work_v moderate_o for_o certain_o god_n have_v make_v abundant_a provision_n for_o all_o his_o creature_n and_o particullar_o for_o those_o that_o be_v rational_a supp●●●e_v therefore_o what_o will_v do_v and_o allow_v that_o be_v it_o more_o or_o less_o 2._o another_o objection_n perhaps_o will_v be_v that_o if_o man_n have_v no_o more_o but_o just_a their_o share_n of_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n than_o it_o will_v be_v impossible_a to_o allow_v to_o every_o one_o of_o our_o parish_n such_o convenient_a house_n such_o brick_n wall_n and_o such_o other_o convenience_n as_o we_o do_v i_o answer_v that_o be_v a_o perfect_a mistake_n for_o if_o all_o man_n thus_o give_v up_o themselves_o alike_o to_o a_o moderate_a and_o necessary_a labour_n the_o world_n will_v be_v incomparable_o rich_a than_o it_o be_v and_o if_o our_o parish_n do_v so_o and_o have_v proportionable_o their_o share_n of_o the_o earth_n it_o will_v be_v the_o same_o thing_n as_o far_o as_o it_o concern_v we_o as_o if_o it_o be_v so_o practise_v through_o out_o the_o whole_a world_n then_o it_o must_v be_v confess_v town_n be_v not_o build_v in_o a_o day_n but_o by_o degree_n they_o arrive_v to_o the_o great_a perfection_n as_o for_o our_o brick_n wall_n they_o be_v last_v but_o not_o very_o chargeable_a or_o difficult_a to_o
