all_o now_o the_o mother_n overhear_v all_o that_o the_o father_n say_v call_v her_o young_a son_n and_o say_v to_o he_o son_n since_o thy_o father_n have_v command_v thy_o elder-brother_n to_o

he_o may_v bless_v thou_o for_o the_o father_n be_v dark_a through_o extremity_n of_o age_n now_o when_o the_o young_a have_v bring_v she_o the_o kid_n his_o mother_n stew_v they_o and_o put_v the_o

when_o the_o child_n shall_v have_v thorough_o remember_v this_o upon_o some_o other_o evening_n thou_o shall_v require_v he_o to_o repeat_v this_o story_n of_o the_o two_o brother_n and_o if_o he_o

that_o the_o narration_n be_v skilful_o and_o dxterons_o handle_v thus_o therefore_o let_v we_o tell_v he_o this_o same_o brother_n go_v his_o way_n and_o come_v to_o a_o certain_a place_n have_v

what_o be_v that_o viz._n that_o from_o the_o appellation_n we_o present_o introduce_v a_o certain_a emulation_n of_o virtue_n in_o child_n let_v none_o therefore_o be_v forward_o to_o name_v their_o

let_v this_o child_n be_v call_v peter_n that_o john_n and_o another_o by_o the_o apellation_n of_o some_o holy_a man_n and_o talk_v not_o to_o i_o of_o the_o gentilname_n for_o believe_v it_o it_o be_v no_o small_a reproach_n and_o worthy_a of_o derision_n when_o in_o a_o christian_a family_n some_o heathen_a ceremony_n be_v perform_v and_o they_o light_v up_o the_o lamp_n and_o watch_v which_o

child_n for_o it_o be_v the_o custom_n in_o the_o beginning_n not_o without_o reason_n that_o they_o call_v their_o child_n by_o the_o name_n of_o their_o ancestor_n it_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o consolation_n against_o mortality_n that_o he_o which_o be_v go_v seem_v still_o to_o live_v by_o reason_n of_o his_o name_n but_o now_o this_o custom_n be_v quite_o out_o of_o request_n true_o we_o see_v that_o the_o r●ghteous_a do_v not_o so_o call_v their_o child_n for_o ●b●aham_fw-la beg●t_n isaac_n jacob_n and_o moses_n be_v not_o call_v after_o their_o ancestor_n name_n nor_o do_v we_o find_v any_o of_o the_o just_a so_o c●lled_v o_o what_o a_o example_n will_v he●e_n be_v of_o virtue_n of_o consolation_n and_o of_o exhortation_n and_o moreover_o neither_o do_v we_o find_v any_o other_o cause_n of_o change_a name_n beside_o this_o only_a that_o it_o may_v be_v a_o monument_n of_o virtue_n thou_o say_v he_o shall_v be_v call_v cephas_n which_o be_v be_v expound_v peter_n why_o so_o 18._o because_o thou_o do_v confess_v 5_o and_o thou_o shall_v be_v call_v abraham_n 28._o why_o so_o because_o thou_o be_v a_o father_n of_o nation_n and_o israel_n because_o he_o do_v see_v god_n hence_o therefore_o let_v we_o begin_v our_o care_n over_o our_o child_n and_o institute_v their_o life_n but_o as_o i_o say_v he_o see_v a_o ladder_n reach_v to_o the_o heaven_n and_o touch_v it_o let_v the_o name_n therefore_o of_o the_o saint_n enter_v into_o your_o house_n by_o the_o appellation_n of_o your_o child_n that_o by_o this_o mean_n it_o may_v not_o alone_o compose_v the_o

circumspect_o and_o pious_o impose_v and_o for_o the_o honour_n of_o those_o that_o be_v depart_v thus_o therefore_o let_v we_o court_v the_o affinity_n of_o the_o r●ghteous_a rather_o than_o of_o
