riches_n and_o love_a favour_n above_o silver_n and_o gold_n now_o the_o instruction_n which_o we_o may_v gather_v out_o of_o this_o place_n be_v chief_o two_o the_o first_o be_v that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o hurt_v our_o neighbour_n above_o all_o thing_n in_o their_o good_a name_n name_n and_o therefore_o the_o lord_n in_o his_o law_n have_v ordain_v that_o he_o which_o do_v such_o a_o thing_n shall_v have_v the_o same_o punishment_n which_o he_o purpose_v to_o bring_v upon_o another_o man_n will_v be_v loath_a to_o steal_v the_o good_n of_o any_o man_n from_o he_o &_o yet_o the_o name_n of_o a_o man_n be_v more_o worth_a than_o all_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n therefore_o if_o any_o man_n by_o raise_v up_o false_a report_n do_v impair_v his_o brother_n credit_n he_o do_v hurt_v he_o and_o sin_v more_o gross_o &_o more_o grievous_o than_o susanna_n if_o he_o have_v take_v away_o his_o land_n or_o his_o live_n his_o corn_n or_o his_o cattle_n or_o any_o other_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v and_o though_o the_o thing_n be_v false_a which_o he_o report_v yet_o he_o sin_v nevertheless_o for_o after_o that_o time_n even_o good_a man_n will_v be_v more_o suspicious_a and_o the_o wicked_a will_v not_o let_v it_o go_v out_o of_o their_o mind_n but_o if_o this_o be_v against_o a_o preacher_n or_o professor_n of_o the_o gospel_n than_o the_o sin_n be_v the_o great_a because_o god_n and_o his_o word_n become_v dishonour_v thereby_o the_o second_o instruction_n be_v that_o we_o must_v be_v careful_a by_o all_o good_a mean_n to_o get_v and_o maintain_v name_n our_o good_a name_n for_o if_o it_o be_v a_o sin_n to_o discredit_v another_o man_n then_o much_o more_o be_v it_o a_o sin_n to_o discredit_v ourselves_o if_o we_o be_v charge_v to_o further_a the_o good_a name_n of_o our_o
minister_n be_v place_v over_o note_n the_o people_n as_o the_o wicked_a liver_n false_a teacher_n or_o dumb_a dog_n it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o the_o lord_n have_v set_v they_o even_o to_o
