each_o of_o these_o for_o the_o first_o of_o these_o to_o wit_n when_o the_o chastisement_n be_v within_o the_o quality_n of_o the_o offence_n much_o must_v be_v leave_v to_o the_o conscience_n of_o

what_o chastisement_n be_v due_a to_o each_o will_v be_v best_a judge_v of_o by_o the_o general_a custom_n of_o christian_a parent_n a_o general_a custom_n be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n the_o

of_o the_o offender_n which_o will_v minister_v less_o matter_n for_o our_o inquiry_n for_o as_o it_o will_v be_v easy_a for_o parent_n upon_o the_o knowledge_n they_o have_v of_o their_o child_n
