the_o devil_n when_o they_o be_v angel_n who_o perceive_v they_o be_v so_o glorious_a creature_n rebel_v against_o their_o creator_n and_o will_v be_v as_o god_n himself_o just_o so_o be_v poor_a servant_n when_o their_o master_n give_v they_o fine_a clothes_n to_o adorn_v they_o or_o money_n to_o enrich_v they_o or_o office_n to_o advance_v they_o they_o straight_o will_v be_v their_o master_n nay_o they_o will_v envy_n their_o master_n if_o they_o see_v he_o have_v any_o thing_n better_o than_o they_o this_o i_o have_v know_v by_o experience_n but_o they_o will_v not_o know_v it_o until_o they_o become_v to_o be_v like_o devil_n that_o be_v in_o a_o miserable_a condition_n which_o they_o deserve_v for_o their_o ingratitude_n but_o a_o good_a servant_n be_v a_o treasure_n say_v solomon_n and_o so_o i_o think_v be_v a_o good_a master_n to_o a_o servant_n if_o the_o servant_n have_v wit_n to_o perceive_v it_o but_o a_o good_a master_n be_v to_o know_v how_o to_o command_v when_o to_o command_v and_o what_o to_o command_v also_o when_o to_o bestow_v what_o to_o bestow_v &_o how_o much_o to_o bestow_v on_o a_o good_a servant_n also_o to_o fit_a servant_n to_o employment_n and_o employment_n to_o servant_n also_o to_o know_v how_o and_o when_o to_o restrain_v they_o and_o when_o to_o give_v they_o liberty_n also_o to_o observe_v which_o of_o his_o servant_n be_v fit_a to_o be_v rule_v with_o austerity_n or_o severity_n and_o which_o with_o clemency_n and_o to_o reward_n and_o punish_v they_o proper_o timely_o and_o just_o likewise_o when_o to_o make_v they_o work_n and_o when_o to_o let_v they_o play_n or_o sport_n as_o also_o when_o to_o keep_v they_o at_o a_o distance_n and_o when_o to_o associate_v himself_o with_o they_o and_o true_o i_o shall_v soon_o choose_v to_o associate_v myself_o with_o the_o company_n of_o my_o servant_n have_v they_o good_a breed_n or_o be_v capable_a to_o learn_v and_o imitate_v what_o do_v belong_v to_o good_a behaviour_n than_o with_o stranger_n for_o good_a servant_n be_v friend_n as_o well_o as_o servant_n nay_o servant_n be_v a_o guard_n to_o their_o master_n for_o good_a &_o faithful_a servant_n will_v die_v for_o the_o safeguard_v of_o their_o master_n life_n and_o they_o will_v endure_v any_o torment_n rather_o than_o betray_v their_o master_n and_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o servant_n so_o to_o do_v for_o servant_n owe_v almost_o as_o much_o duty_n to_o their_o master_n as_o child_n to_o their_o parent_n or_o subject_n to_o their_o natural_a prince_n for_o servant_n be_v not_o only_o govern_v but_o instruct_v feed_v and_o maintain_v and_o what_o great_a crime_n be_v there_o than_o to_o be_v a_o traitor_n to_o their_o governor_n tutor_n and_o nourisher_n of_o their_o life_n and_o every_o master_n the_o mean_a that_o be_v be_v a_o father_n and_o a_o king_n in_o his_o own_o family_n wherefore_o to_o my_o reason_n they_o be_v very_o unwise_a that_o will_v go_v out_o of_o their_o own_o dominion_n and_o leave_v their_o own_o obedient_a subject_n which_o be_v their_o servant_n travel_v into_o other_o kingdom_n which_o be_v other_o family_n wherein_o they_o have_v neither_o power_n nor_o obedience_n leave_v their_o own_o servant_n without_o rule_n or_o guide_n for_o when_o a_o master_n be_v from_o home_n his_o family_n be_v like_o a_o body_n without_o a_o head_n like_v as_o a_o king_n shall_v travel_v into_o foreign_a country_n and_o leave_v his_o subject_n and_o kingdom_n and_o state-affair_n at_o random_n or_o to_o a_o deputy_n it_o be_v likely_a his_o subject_n will_v rebel_n against_o he_o through_o dislike_n to_o the_o deputy_n as_o scorn_v to_o be_v rule_v or_o govern_v by_o a_o fellow-subject_a or_o else_o the_o deputy_n will_v get_v away_o their_o love_n from_o their_o prince_n and_o then_o will_v strive_v to_o thrust_v the_o right_a owner_n out_o the_o same_o be_v with_o a_o master_n and_o his_o servant_n wherefore_o a_o wise_a love_v master_n will_v keep_v home_o and_o go_v no_o often_o abroad_o than_o occasion_n require_v but_o will_v entertain_v himself_o with_o his_o own_o family_n and_o his_o family_n will_v entertain_v he_o with_o sport_n and_o pastime_n like_v as_o subject_n do_v their_o prince_n and_o whenas_o a_o servant_n do_v rebel_n although_o the_o master_n have_v not_o power_n to_o banish_v he_o the_o country_n or_o kingdom_n as_o prince_n have_v yet_o have_v he_o power_n to_o turn_v he_o out_o of_o his_o service_n and_o banish_v he_o from_o his_o house_n if_o his_o fault_n do_v deserve_v it_o but_o some_o may_v think_v it_o strange_a that_o there_o be_v as_o few_o master_n that_o know_v how_o to_o govern_v their_o family_n wise_o as_o there_o be_v king_n that_o know_v how_o to_o rule_v their_o kingdom_n wise_o but_o that_o be_v no_o wonder_n for_o first_o where_o there_o be_v one_o king_n of_o a_o kingdom_n there_o be_v thousand_o master_n of_o family_n and_o a_o king_n be_v the_o master_n of_o all_o those_o family_n insomuch_o as_o a_o king_n have_v more_o master_n to_o govern_v and_o rule_n than_o the_o rich_a master_n of_o his_o kingdom_n have_v servant_n but_o if_o servant_n be_v as_o they_o shall_v be_v master_n will_v not_o only_o thrive_v by_o the_o trusty_a labour_n of_o their_o servant_n and_o servant_n by_o the_o wealth_n of_o their_o master_n but_o master_n and_o servant_n will_v live_v easy_o by_o the_o diligence_n of_o the_o one_o and_o the_o prudence_n of_o the_o other_o also_o they_o will_v live_v delightful_o by_o their_o sport_n and_o pastime_n where_o the_o master_n will_v sit_v as_o a_o kingly_a spectator_n whilst_o his_o servant_n be_v pleasant_a actor_n in_o all_o which_o both_o master_n and_o servant_n will_v be_v very_o

it_o so_o it_o have_v also_o hard_a dry_a curd_n in_o it_o for_o milk_n be_v compound_v by_o nature_n of_o three_o substance_n as_o butter_n curd_n and_o whey_n as_o the_o oily_a earthy_a and_o watery_a part_n whereas_o cream_n have_v only_o the_o oily_a and_o watery_a part_n for_o thick_a cream_n can_v be_v turn_v into_o a_o hard_a curd_n which_o make_v it_o so_o much_o the_o better_o for_o dry_a curd_n be_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o horn_n as_o we_o may_v observe_v by_o such_o cheese_n as_o be_v make_v of_o fleet_v milk_n which_o be_v tough_a hard_a and_o insipid_a whereas_o cream-cheese_n be_v only_o press_a butter_n indeed_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v do_v as_o to_o make_v a_o cheese_n or_o cheese-curd_n only_o of_o thich_n cream_n unless_o there_o be_v water_n or_o thin_a milk_n mix_v with_o it_o it_o be_v true_a the_o whey_n of_o cream_n which_o be_v buttermilk_n will_v curdle_n that_o be_v when_o the_o oily_a part_n be_v take_v out_o of_o it_o and_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o i_o say_v cream_n be_v more_o nourish_v and_o moisten_v than_o milk_n but_o i_o may_v chance_v to_o plead_v the_o good_a effect_n of_o cream_n and_o leave_v out_o the_o evil_a as_o i_o do_v once_o for_o brown_a bread_n which_o be_v that_o brown_a bread_n in_o effect_n be_v much_o cool_a than_o white_a my_o reason_n be_v that_o the_o flowery_a part_n be_v bolt_v out_o wherein_o lie_v the_o strength_n and_o so_o consequent_o the_o heat_n the_o remainder_n as_o the_o branny_n part_n be_v like_o grain_n which_o be_v the_o insipid_a part_n of_o barley_n so_o that_o brown_a bread_n in_o effect_n be_v like_o small_a ale_n and_o white_a bread_n like_o strong_a and_o for_o this_o reason_n i_o do_v eat_v brown_a bread_n but_o my_o weak_a stomach_n soon_o grow_v sick_a for_o though_o my_o reason_n find_v out_o the_o cool_a effect_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o perceive_v that_o the_o grossness_n make_v it_o hard_o of_o digestion_n until_o experience_n teach_v it_o so_o some_o may_v object_n that_o cream_n be_v thick_a than_o milk_n may_v not_o pass_v out_o of_o the_o stomach_n so_o easy_o but_o sure_o if_o the_o milk_n curdles_n in_o the_o stomach_n as_o certain_o it_o most_o usual_o do_v those_o curd_n will_v not_o only_o be_v hard_a to_o digest_v but_o breed_v great_a obstruction_n whereas_o cream_n which_o be_v as_o butter_n will_v make_v the_o body_n soluble_a yet_o though_o i_o argue_v for_o it_o i_o eat_v little_a of_o it_o by_o reason_n the_o nature_n of_o cream_n be_v hot_a and_o my_o diet_n be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n cooling_n some_o may_v say_v by_o reason_n milk_n nourish_v child_n it_o may_v nourish_v those_o that_o be_v grow_v up_o to_o year_n but_o experience_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o nature_n of_o mankind_n for_o the_o most_o part_n alter_v with_o time_n and_o that_o which_o be_v natural_a to_o a_o child_n may_v be_v unnatural_a to_o
