to_o see_v they_o teach_v in_o some_o manner_n but_o their_o servant_n they_o whole_o neglect_v therefore_o god_n who_o be_v a_o father_n to_o servant_n as_o well_o as_o child_n provide_v large_a instruction_n and_o comfort_n for_o servant_n if_o they_o will_v come_v to_o his_o book_n to_o be_v teach_v 2_o the_o careful_a apostle_n see_v that_o in_o the_o first_o conversion_n of_o man_n from_o gentilism_n to_o christianity_n there_o be_v great_a danger_n of_o disorder_n and_o scandal_n in_o servant_n partly_o out_o of_o weariness_n of_o their_o bondage_n and_o servile_a condition_n partly_o because_o man_n will_v less_o spare_v to_o tell_v of_o their_o fault_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n as_o most_o fearful_a of_o they_o spend_v many_o word_n in_o the_o teach_n and_o encourage_v of_o they_o 3_o we_o may_v note_v here_o the_o candour_n of_o the_o apostle_n he_o do_v free_o deliver_v his_o mind_n in_o the_o behalf_n of_o servant_n with_o a_o full_a vent_n of_o word_n with_o great_a care_n without_o hold_v back_o anything_o that_o belong_v unto_o they_o he_o be_v not_o of_o the_o mind_n of_o most_o preacher_n now_o adays_o that_o hold_v the_o discourse_n of_o family_n duty_n especial_o of_o servant_n too_o base_a a_o subject_n for_o their_o wit_n and_o learning_n to_o be_v employ_v in_o neither_o be_v the_o apostle_n of_o the_o humour_n of_o lawyer_n that_o seldom_o

hold_v servant_n in_o obedience_n that_o none_o under_o colour_n of_o liberty_n in_o christ_n shall_v break_v up_o their_o subjection_n to_o their_o master_n he_o be_v no_o anabaptist_n second_o to_o meet_v with_o the_o faulty_a obedience_n of_o such_o servant_n as_o be_v resolve_v to_o stay_v in_o service_n he_o meet_v here_o with_o five_o fault_n in_o servant_n servant_n 1_o the_o first_o fault_n in_o servant_n be_v half_a service_n or_o to_o obey_v in_o what_o they_o list_v this_o he_o correct_v when_o he_o say_v in_o all_o thing_n 2_o the_o second_o fault_n be_v eye_n service_n 3_o the_o three_o fault_n be_v profaneness_n most_o servant_n never_o respect_v piety_n and_o god_n fear_v but_o only_o to_o please_v their_o master_n this_o he_o meet_v with_o when_o he_o say_v not_o as_o man_n pleaser_n but_o fear_v god_n 4_o the_o four_o fault_n be_v hypocritical_a service_n this_o he_o meet_v when_o he_o add_v in_o singleness_n of_o heart_n 5_o the_o five_o fault_n be_v baseness_n of_o mind_n and_o discouragement_n this_o he_o will_v prevent_v in_o the_o two_o last_o verse_n thus_o of_o the_o general_a servant_n the_o servant_n in_o the_o apostle_n time_n be_v for_o
