cause_v he_o to_o neglect_v his_o duty_n but_o let_v he_o be_v resolve_v to_o stay_v out_o and_o serve_v his_o full_a time_n whatever_o come_v on_o it_o i_o give_v this_o counsel_n because_o i_o know_v it_o ha●_n be_v much_o the_o better_a for_o i_o if_o i_o have_v do_v so_o experientia_fw-la docet_fw-la for_o i_o have_v no_o such_o absolute_a reason_n to_o run_v away_o but_o i_o may_v have_v dispense_v withal_o but_o as_o i_o tell_v you_o my_o master_n have_v no_o such_o design_n of_o make_v any_o base_a profitable_a end_n on_o i_o yet_o for_o th●_n reason_v aforesaid_a he_o be_v content_a to_o have_v i_o go_v on_o the_o other_o side_n my_o father_n have_v discourse_v with_o he_o and_o feel_v his_o pulse_n h●●_n know_v his_o mind_n in_o part_n and_o be_v resolve_v t●_n make_v his_o advantage_n out_o of_o it_o for_o the_o more_o unwilling_a my_o master_n be_v to_o receive_v i_o the_o more_o forward_o my_o father_n be_v to_o press_v he_o to_o take_v i_o so_o that_o if_o he_o shall_v whole_o refuse_v it_o he_o may_v get_v good_a part_n of_o his_o money_n again_o these_o be_v my_o father_n end_n and_o he_o manage_v they_o with_o all_o circumspection_n and_o prudence_n according_o he_o go_v first_o to_o my_o master_n and_o tell_v he_o that_o he_o have_v find_v his_o servant_n ask_v what_o he_o intend_v to_o do_v with_o i_o he_o reply_v he_o care_v not_o what_o for_o he_o will_v not_o entertain_v i_o but_o some_o body_n must_v say_v my_o father_n let_v who_o will_n say_v my_o master_n i_o care_v not_o well_o then_o reply_v my_o father_n i_o shall_v have_v your_o leave_n to_o do_v it_o if_o i_o will_n yes_o yes_o say_v my_o master_n this_o be_v as_o my_o father_n wish_v and_o the_o danger_n of_o that_o be_v over_o and_o then_o he_o proceed_v further_o urge_v he_o to_o receive_v i_o my_o master_n refuse_v it_o and_o say_v he_o believe_v that_o i_o dare_v not_o come_v to_o he_o yes_o but_o he_o shall_v say_v my_o father_n and_o serve_v you_o out_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o time_n if_o you_o will_v do_v he_o justice_n and_o let_v he_o enjoy_v his_o right_n i_o will_v not_o be_v appoint_v what_o to_o do_v with_o my_o servant_n say_v my_o master_n but_o to_o conclude_v after_o many_o discourse_n the_o end_n of_o all_o be_v this_o i_o be_v bring_v to_o my_o master_n to_o tell_v he_o that_o i_o will_v if_o he_o please_v serve_v out_o my_o time_n with_o he_o i_o have_v much_o ado_n to_o be_v persuade_v to_o say_v these_o word_n but_o my_o father_n tell_v i_o his_o intent_n by_o they_o and_o what_o will_v follow_v i_o say_v so_o and_o it_o fall_v out_o as_o he_o expect_v for_o my_o father_n well_o enough_o know_v that_o if_o i_o will_v come_v to_o he_o again_o he_o can_v not_o refuse_v i_o and_o he_o be_v willing_a to_o be_v rid_v of_o i_o answer_v direct_o that_o he_o be_v not_o willing_a to_o receive_v i_o and_o if_o he_o be_v compel_v to_o it_o i_o shall_v suffer_v for_o it_o and_o that_o the_o chamberlain_n will_v order_v i_o first_o to_o be_v punish_v my_o father_n reply_v not_o for_o his_o first_o fault_n and_o he_o have_v some_o reason_n for_o it_o as_o i_o shall_v tell_v he_o i_o be_v please_v with_o this_o and_o so_o be_v not_o my_o master_n who_o have_v say_v all_o he_o can_v to_o frighten_v i_o but_o i_o see_v my_o father_n stand_v up_o so_o stiff_o for_o i_o do_v not_o fear_v any_o thing_n and_o my_o father_n by_o this_o mean_v wrought_v his_o end_n for_o my_o master_n tell_v i_o i_o must_v look_v another_o master_n my_o father_n reply_v so_o he_o shall_v if_o you_o will_v put_v he_o in_o as_o good_a case_n as_o you_o find_v he_o and_o thereupon_o complain_v of_o my_o clothes_n and_o demand_v money_n back_o to_o give_v with_o i_o to_o another_o master_n they_o argue_v pro_fw-la and_o con_v but_o in_o the_o end_n agree_v and_o my_o master_n repay_v ten_o pound_n if_o not_o fifteen_o of_o the_o money_n he_o have_v receive_v with_o i_o and_o so_o we_o part_v i_o have_v be_v very_o particular_a in_o this_o discourse_n and_o it_o may_v be_v you_o will_v think_v it_o tedious_a but_o i_o hope_v it_o may_v be_v for_o the_o future_a good_a of_o the_o reader_n who_o may_v either_o as_o father_n apprentice_n or_o master_n be_v in_o the_o same_o condition_n and_o pick_v somewhat_o out_o of_o this_o my_o relation_n that_o may_v advantage_v they_o that_o be_v the_o chief_a end_n of_o my_o write_n it_o and_o that_o my_o misfortune_n and_o misery_n may_v conduce_v to_o the_o good_a fortune_n and_o happiness_n of_o other_o this_o affair_n be_v prudent_o manage_v by_o my_o father_n who_o have_v he_o be_v severe_a at_o his_o first_o light_v on_o i_o i_o have_v be_v ruin_v to_o eternity_n for_o i_o shall_v have_v run_v away_o again_o if_o he_o have_v force_v i_o to_o go_v to_o my_o master_n this_o my_o father_n judge_v will_v be_v the_o case_n and_o therefore_o prevent_v it_o but_o he_o do_v use_v all_o the_o argument_n he_o can_v raise_v to_o induce_v i_o to_o submit_v to_o my_o master_n and_o serve_v my_o time_n and_o when_o that_o will_v do_v no_o good_a he_o fall_v to_o threaten_n charge_v i_o on_o his_o blessing_n to_o obey_v he_o but_o i_o be_v deaf_a to_o his_o threaten_n and_o my_o disobedience_n have_v since_o that_o same_o time_n wrought_v very_o much_o upon_o my_o spirit_n and_o make_v so_o deep_a a_o impression_n thereon_o that_o i_o doubt_v it_o will_v never_o wear_v out_o for_o although_o it_o be_v above_o twenty_o year_n ago_o yet_o i_o be_o to_o this_o day_n trouble_v at_o it_o both_o day_n and_o night_n and_o my_o very_a dream_n be_v fill_v with_o that_o concern_n oftentimes_o imagine_v that_o i_o be_o still_a servant_n to_o my_o say_a master_n and_o that_o my_o time_n will_v never_o be_v out_o so_o that_o because_o i_o do_v not_o serve_v he_o in_o effect_n i_o still_o serve_v he_o in_o fancy_n and_o imagination_n and_o this_o my_o disobedience_n to_o my_o father_n i_o judge_v to_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o those_o many_o misfortune_n that_o have_v since_o fall_v upon_o i_o and_o therefore_o i_o can_v do_v no_o less_o than_o make_v open_a confession_n thereof_o no_o other_o satisfaction_n can_v i_o give_v he_o he_o be_v now_o dead_a he_o do_v i_o hope_v forgive_v i_o when_o live_v for_o i_o be_v several_a time_n after_o that_o reconcile_a to_o he_o but_o he_o will_v still_o tell_v i_o my_o disobedience_n will_v be_v my_o ruin_n and_o that_o i_o do_v not_o understand_v the_o love_n he_o have_v for_o i_o i_o must_v confess_v that_o i_o do_v not_o look_v upon_o he_o to_o love_v i_o no_o long_o than_o he_o be_v give_v to_o i_o and_o when_o he_o hold_v his_o hand_n i_o think_v he_o forget_v his_o duty_n and_o that_o i_o may_v remit_v i_o but_o i_o since_o find_v this_o say_n of_o he_o to_o be_v most_o true_a that_o child_n do_v not_o indeed_o can_v distinguish_v or_o be_v sensible_a of_o their_o parent_n love_v to_o they_o until_o they_o come_v to_o have_v some_o child_n of_o their_o own_o i_o have_v since_o have_v the_o experience_n of_o his_o say_n and_o have_v repent_v of_o my_o slight_v he_o all_o that_o i_o can_v say_v more_o be_v now_o to_o god_n and_o the_o world_n and_o that_o i_o here_o make_v my_o confession_n and_o that_o with_o contrition_n not_o doubt_v but_o that_o i_o shall_v have_v remission_n and_o absolution_n in_o this_o world_n and_o in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v and_o hope_v that_o after_o all_o my_o affliction_n i_o may_v yet_o have_v some_o comfort_n and_o peaceable_a enjoyment_n of_o myself_o in_o this_o life_n and_o i_o have_v some_o cause_n to_o expect_v a_o future_a quiet_a consolation_n because_o i_o hope_v the_o measure_n of_o my_o misfortune_n and_o affliction_n all_o which_o i_o judge_v be_v fall_v upon_o i_o for_o my_o disobedience_n and_o other_o crime_n be_v now_o full_a enough_o and_o that_o i_o have_v already_o receive_v affliction_n enough_o but_o if_o it_o be_v not_o so_o and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o yet_o enough_o yet_o i_o hope_v at_o the_o worst_a that_o all_o my_o punishment_n will_v fall_v on_o i_o in_o this_o life_n which_o i_o beseech_v god_n to_o grant_v so_o that_o in_o the_o next_o i_o may_v enjoy_v the_o quiet_a and_o content_a that_o i_o have_v hitherto_o want_v and_o which_o all_o true_a contrite_a repentant_a sinner_n hope_v to_o enjoy_v but_o i_o have_v this_o reason_n to_o believe_v that_o i_o shall_v be_v acquit_v from_o the_o ill_a service_n i_o do_v my_o master_n if_o retaliation_n be_v a_o due_a punishment_n for_o a_o crime_n for_o all_o the_o ill_a service_n i_o ever_o do_v he_o have_v be_v
