servant_n so_o that_o it_o be_v hard_a to_o find_v a_o faithful_a servant_n and_o all_o for_o want_v of_o execution_n of_o wholesome_a discipline_n in_o private_a family_n thus_o much_o for_o the_o

duty_n be_v to_o submit_v herself_o unto_o her_o husband_n and_o to_o do_v he_o good_a and_o not_o evil_a all_o the_o day_n of_o her_o life_n the_o duty_n of_o parent_n be_v to_o bring_v up_o their_o

again_o but_o do_v service_n to_o they_o in_o singleness_n of_o heart_n as_o unto_o christ._n all_o these_o point_n be_v so_o plain_o set_v down_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n that_o they_o need_v

wherefore_o as_o we_o love_v order_n and_o reverence_v the_o god_n of_o order_n let_v we_o set_v ourselves_o from_o this_o day_n forward_o every_o one_o of_o we_o to_o keep_v his_o own_o order_n that_o so_o every_o several_a family_n be_v well_o order_v the_o whole_a commonwealth_n may_v come_v into_o good_a order_n and_o consequent_o that_o god_n may_v be_v move_v to_o remove_v from_o we_o
