hard_a rock_n and_o you_o shall_v strive_v against_o both_o the_o wind_n and_o the_o stream_n again_o do_v we_o not_o see_v that_o while_n the_o plant_n be_v young_a and_o tender_a a_o man_n may_v wind_v and_o bend_v it_o which_o way_n he_o will_v but_o if_o you_o assay_v this_o when_o it_o be_v grow_v old_a it_o will_v soon_o burst_v then_o bend_v even_o so_o be_v it_o in_o the_o education_n of_o youth_n and_o therefore_o if_o parent_n will_v do_v their_o child_n any_o good_a and_o bend_v their_o crooked_a disposition_n to_o a_o comely_a stature_n they_o must_v do_v it_o while_o they_o be_v tender_a and_o young_a for_o now_o they_o will_v bend_v now_o they_o be_v pliable_a now_o they_o will_v work_v therefore_o solomon_n say_v teach_v a_o child_n &_o not_o teach_v a_o man_n for_o how_o come_v paul_n to_o be_v so_o mighty_a a_o teacher_n in_o the_o scripture_n after_o he_o be_v convert_v and_o write_v more_o than_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o apostle_n but_o because_o he_o be_v bring_v up_o in_o they_o from_o his_o youth_n at_o the_o foot_n of_o gamaliel_n 22.3_o and_o how_o come_v timothy_n to_o be_v such_o a_o famous_a scholar_n of_o so_o worthy_a a_o master_n as_o paul_n be_v 15._o but_o because_o he_o have_v know_v the_o holy_a scripture_n of_o a_o child_n and_o how_o come_v daniel_n to_o be_v so_o excellent_a a_o prophet_n 1.12_o but_o because_o he_o be_v so_o religious_a be_v a_o child_n that_o he_o choose_v rather_o to_o feed_v upon_o hard_a pulse_n they_o to_o pollute_v himself_o with_o the_o king_n delicate_n every_o thing_n grow_v well_o in_o the_o spring_n time_n and_o so_o the_o best_a plant_v of_o any_o goodness_n be_v in_o the_o youth_n for_o than_o it_o will_v grow_v if_o it_o be_v well_o water_v and_o look_v unto_o but_o here_o i_o find_v two_o principal_a want_n in_o parent_n which_o great_o hinder_v this_o virtuous_a work_n the_o first_o be_v the_o want_n of_o follow_v &_o continuance_n for_o many_o think_v that_o if_o now_o and_o 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 be_v but_o little_a worth_n every_o trade_n man_n can_v easy_o tell_v we_o that_o no_o science_n will_v go_v forward_o well_o except_o it_o be_v hardly_o follow_v and_o again_o the_o mind_n of_o child_n be_v like_o the_o soft_a wax_n the_o which_o as_o it_o will_v soon_o take_v the_o print_n so_o it_o will_v be_v soon_o beat_v out_o again_o and_o therefore_o have_v need_n often_o to_o be_v 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 they_o have_v teach_v well_o suffer_v the_o clean_a contrary_n for_o these_o build_v with_o one_o hand_n and_o pull_v down_o with_o the_o other_o wherefore_o here_o the_o careful_a parent_n must_v not_o only_o teach_v but_o continue_v in_o teach_v and_o not_o only_o continue_v in_o teach_v but_o also_o look_v for_o the_o fruit_n of_o his_o teach_n and_o again_o not_o only_o look_v for_o the_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 end_n and_o proper_a good_a of_o every_o child_n child_n teach_v a_o child_n in_o the_o trade_n of_o his_o way_n that_o be_v teach_v he_o in_o the_o trade_n of_o his_o own_o way_n and_o that_o be_v as_o i_o have_v show_v you_o in_o some_o honest_a profession_n in_o good_a nurture_n and_o godliness_n this_o be_v call_v a_o child_n way_n not_o because_o he_o of_o his_o own_o will_n incline_v unto_o it_o but_o because_o the_o lord_n who_o be_v only_o wise_a and_o most_o love_a have_v of_o his_o great_a grace_n appoint_v out_o this_o way_n for_o he_o to_o walk_v in_o for_o his_o own_o good_a now_o you_o tender_a parent_n will_v it_o not_o grieve_v you_o that_o your_o child_n shall_v take_v a_o wrong_a course_n and_o drudge_n and_o droyle_n for_o other_o man_n all_o the_o day_n of_o their_o life_n without_o any_o profit_n or_o pleasure_n to_o themselves_o but_o now_o it_o be_v well_o with_o they_o if_o they_o be_v man_n drudge_n for_o if_o they_o miss_v of_o their_o own_o way_n and_o of_o their_o own_o trade_n for_o want_v of_o good_a guide_n and_o instruction_n they_o fall_v present_o into_o the_o devil_n way_n because_o there_o be_v but_o two_o way_n and_o now_o they_o be_v become_v the_o devil_n packhorse_n bear_v his_o burden_n unto_o hell_n gate_n shall_v they_o not_o be_v well_o pay_v for_o their_o pain_n when_o they_o come_v there_o wherefore_o good_a parent_n if_o you_o will_v not_o have_v your_o child_n to_o be_v the_o devil_n drudge_n and_o to_o labour_v all_o their_o life_n for_o his_o profit_n then_o teach_v they_o in_o the_o trade_n of_o their_o own_o way_n and_o hold_v they_o in_o it_o teach_v 4._o the_o four_o reason_n be_v fetch_v from_o the_o special_a blessing_n of_o god_n upon_o the_o parent_n for_o this_o virtuous_a care_n of_o instruct_v his_o child_n as_o we_o may_v read_v in_o the_o eighteen_o chapter_n of_o genesis_n 18.17_o and_o the_o seventeen_o verse_n shall_v i_o hide_v from_o abraham_n that_o thing_n which_o i_o do_v for_o i_o know_v he_o that_o he_o will_v command_v his_o son_n and_o his_o houshoulde_n after_o he_o that_o they_o keep_v the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o do_v righteousness_n and_o judgement_n that_o the_o lord_n may_v bring_v upon_o abraham_n that_o he_o have_v speak_v unto_o he_o here_o we_o see_v plain_o to_o no_o small_a encouragement_n to_o good_a parent_n how_o the_o lord_n refer_v to_o godly_a instruct_n of_o family_n as_o unto_o the_o mean_a of_o his_o work_n not_o only_o the_o impart_v of_o his_o bless_a secret_n but_o also_o all_o other_o blessing_n in_o general_a that_o the_o lord_n may_v bring_v upon_o abraham_n that_o he_o have_v speak_v unto_o he_o now_o what_o be_v that_o he_o have_v speak_v unto_o he_o why_o the_o promise_n of_o all_o his_o blessing_n both_o temporal_a and_o spiritual_a as_o we_o may_v read_v 12.2_o gen._n 12._o i_o will_v make_v of_o thou_o a_o great_a nation_n and_o will_v bless_v thou_o and_o make_v thy_o name_n great_a and_o thou_o shall_v be_v a_o blessing_n i_o will_v also_o bless_v they_o that_o bless_v thou_o and_o curse_v they_o that_o curse_v thou_o and_o in_o thou_o shall_v all_o family_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v bless_v o_o great_a be_v the_o blessing_n that_o come_v by_o the_o mean_a of_o this_o virtuous_a teach_n the_o fruit_n of_o it_o shall_v remain_v with_o our_o posterity_n even_o long_o after_o we_o be_v go_v and_o the_o benefit_n shall_v be_v pour_v out_o from_o age_n to_o age_n unto_o the_o world_n end_n godliness_n make_v great_a house_n for_o the_o lord_n have_v promise_v his_o blessing_n to_o a_o thousand_o generation_n of_o they_o that_o love_v he_o and_o keep_v his_o commandment_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a what_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o the_o lord_n hide_v his_o secret_n keep_v back_o many_o a_o heavenly_a instruction_n &_o withhold_v great_a blessing_n from_o most_o parent_n but_o because_o they_o will_v not_o do_v as_o abraham_n do_v they_o have_v no_o care_n that_o these_o bless_a monument_n may_v not_o die_v but_o be_v derive_v from_o age_n to_o age_n to_o god_n eternal_a glory_n wherefore_o thou_o good_a parent_n go_v thou_o forward_o in_o this_o virtuous_a education_n of_o thy_o child_n and_o then_o god_n shall_v hide_v no_o necessary_a secret_n or_o instruction_n from_o thou_o and_o he_o shall_v withhold_v no_o good_a blessing_n from_o thy_o posterity_n thou_o shall_v be_v a_o father_n of_o the_o faithful_a as_o abraham_n be_v if_o thou_o have_v the_o same_o care_n for_o thy_o child_n and_o family_n that_o he_o have_v 5._o the_o five_o

i_o can_v but_o just_o find_v fault_n with_o most_o parent_n who_o though_o they_o be_v somewhat_o careful_a for_o their_o child_n while_o they_o be_v tender_a yet_o when_o they_o become_v to_o some_o year_n of_o discretion_n as_o to_o fifteen_o or_o sixteen_o which_o time_n be_v most_o fit_a for_o reprehension_n because_o then_o by_o all_o reason_n it_o shall_v soon_o enter_v and_o which_o time_n

they_o may_v not_o be_v disgrace_v but_o know_v thou_o o_o wise_a parent_n that_o so_o long_o as_o thou_o have_v a_o child_n so_o long_o thou_o be_v a_o parent_n and_o so_o long_o as_o thou_o be_v a_o

which_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o before_o that_o this_o trade_n be_v the_o head_n of_o all_o trade_n o_o you_o parent_n that_o be_v wise-hearted_n come_v you_o hither_o i_o know_v that_o every_o

have_v the_o profit_n of_o all_o other_o trade_n under_o it_o 4.8_o godliness_n say_v saint_n paul_n be_v profitable_a unto_o all_o thing_n and_o have_v the_o promise_n of_o the_o life_n present_a and_o of_o the_o life_n to_o come_v o_o you_o parent_n you_o be_v more_o than_o mad_a if_o you_o find_v not_o out_o this_o trade_n for_o your_o child_n first_o it_o be_v a_o rich_a trade_n solomon_n say_v that_o the_o merchandise_n of_o it_o be_v better_a than_o the_o merchandise_n of_o silver_n and_o the_o gain_n thereof_o be_v better_a than_o gold_n it_o be_v more_o precious_a than_o pearl_n

five_o and_o last_o this_o trade_n be_v the_o most_o certain_a trade_n in_o all_o the_o world_n it_o never_o fail_v and_o it_o never_o change_v because_o s._n paul_n say_v it_o have_v the_o promise_n of_o this_o life_n and_o of_o the_o life_n to_o come_v all_o other_o trade_n be_v they_o never_o so_o profitable_a yet_o they_o be_v subject_a to_o the_o course_n of_o this_o world_n now_o good_a

for_o this_o life_n that_o so_o he_o may_v live_v well_o among_o his_o neighbour_n another_o day_n without_o injure_v any_o man_n or_o use_v any_o unlawful_a mean_n or_o if_o he_o have_v no_o need_n
