when_o they_o shall_v come_v to_o age_n have_v relation_n to_o a_o english_a school_n and_o observe_v the_o law_n of_o the_o school_n how_o easy_o the_o master_n keep_v his_o scholar_n in_o

take_v little_a or_o no_o care_n to_o train_v up_o or_o teach_v god_n inesse_fw-la and_o manner_n to_o their_o scholar_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o some_o of_o they_o have_v but_o little_a of_o it_o themselves_o godliness_n and_o manner_n be_v the_o very_a diadem_n and_o glory_n of_o all_o learning_n what_o be_v herod_n the_o better_a for_o his_o learning_n when_o as_o the_o people_n say_v it_o be_v the_o voice_n of_o a_o god_n and_o not_o of_o a_o man_n when_o as_o he_o want_v godliness_n and_o manner_n in_o that_o he_o be_v bloody_a mind_v to_o persecute_v the_o poor_a saint_n as_o peter_n and_o james_n and_o the_o rest_n therefore_o good_a law_n and_o precept_n among_o child_n may_v do_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o good_a to_o their_o soul_n and_o body_n the_o law_n be_v set_v down_o in_o four_o head_n 1_o the_o first_o cocern_v god_n and_o his_o sabbothe_n 2_o the_o second_o be_v concern_v the_o duty_n and_o love_n that_o child_n owe_v to_o their_o father_n and_o mother_n and_o their_o superior_n 3_o their_o love_n to_o their_o brother_n sister_n servant_n schoolfellow_n and_o neighbour_n 4_o their_o care_n to_o their_o write_n and_o read_v and_o to_o keep_v their_o

acquaint_v young_a child_n with_o daily_a that_o so_o when_o they_o come_v to_o be_v man_n they_o may_v be_v the_o better_o fit_v to_o observe_v the_o good_a law_n of_o the_o land_n but_o before_o i_o come_v to_o show_v they_o i_o purpose_v to_o propose_v and_o put_v forth_o one_o question_n whether_o lord_n or_o gentleman_n if_o they_o intend_v to_o make_v they_o fair_a orchard_n whether_o they_o do_v usual_o plant_v over_o their_o ground_n old_a tree_n or_o young_a pleasant_a plant_n or_o stock_n it_o be_v to_o be_v grant_v that_o old_a tree_n may_v grow_v when_o they_o be_v plant_v but_o nevertheless_o there_o be_v four_o thing_n why_o great_a man_n and_o gentleman_n do_v not_o plant_v their_o fair_a orchard-ground_n with_o old_a stock_n 1_o because_o old_a great_a tree_n be_v cumbersome_a to_o deal_v withal_o and_o one_o or_o two_o man_n can_v do_v it_o 2_o the_o windy_a storm_n have_v a_o great_a stroke_n at_o great_a tree_n to_o overturn_v they_o more_o than_o it_o have_v at_o a_o young_a plant_n or_o stock_n 3_o old_a tree_n will_v cost_v much_o charge_n and_o labour_n to_o prop_v they_o up_o which_o every_o gust_n of_o wind_n endanger_v either_o to_o overturn_v the_o body_n or_o at_o least_o shake_v the_o root_n 4_o and_o last_o if_o the_o lord_n or_o master_n desire_v to_o make_v a_o arbour_n to_o his_o orchard_n for_o his_o pleasure_n old_a tree_n be_v not_o so_o apt_a to_o bend_v as_o young_a plant_n or_o stock_n for_o that_o work_n this_o i_o make_v by_o way_n of_o comparison_n and_o do_v with_o all_o humility_n set_v it_o forth_o for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o for_o the_o general_a good_a of_o the_o land_n that_o the_o lord_n and_o commons_o of_o both_o the_o house_n of_o parliament_n will_v be_v please_v to_o take_v it_o into_o their_o wise_a and_o grave_a consideration_n careful_o to_o plant_v orchard_n of_o young_a stock_n mean_v young_a nursery_n of_o general_a school_n in_o every_o parish_n throughout_o the_o land_n with_o a_o careful_a gardner_n or_o grafter_n over_o they_o put_v in_o trust_n to_o foster_v and_o cherish_v they_o up_o by_o take_v away_o the_o hurtful_a sprout_n and_o syence_n of_o wickedness_n that_o hinder_v the_o good_a growth_n of_o they_o that_o so_o at_o last_o
