dealing To beare no malice nor hatred in my heart To keepe my hāds from picking stealing And my tongue from euil speaking lying slandering to keepe my body in temperance sobernesse chastitie Not to couet nor desire other mens goods but learne labour truly to get my owne liuing to do my duty in that state of life vnto which it shal please God to call me M. My good Child know this that thou art not able to doe these things of thy selfe nor to walke in the commaundements of God to serue him without his especiall grace which thou must learne at all times to call for by diligent prayer let me heare therefore if thou canst say the Lords prayer OVr Father which art in Heauen hallowed be thy name Thy kingdome come Thy will be done in earth as it is in Heauen Giue vs this day our dayly bread And forgiue vs our trespasses as we forgiue them that trespas against vs. And leade vs not into temptation But deliuer vs from euill For thine is the kingdome the power and the glory for euer and euer Amen M. What desirest thou of God in this prayer S. I desire my Lord God our heauēly father who is the giuer of all goodnes to send his grace vnto me and vnto all people That we may worship him serue him and obey him as wee ought to doe And I pray vnto God that he will send vs al things that be needful both for our soules and bodies And that he will bee merciful vnto vs forgiue vs our sinnes And that it will please him to saue defend vs in all dangers ghostly bodily And that he will keepe vs from all sinne wickednes from our ghostly enemy and from euerlasting death And this I trust he will doe of his mercy goodnes through our Lord Iesus Christ therefore I say Amen So be it Maist I would my good Child heare of thée yet more largely the speciall duties of certain persons and first of those duties that doe stand chiefly in obedience and vertue by reason of thine age and condition specially appertaining vnto thee Tell me therefore first what is the dutie of Subiects towards their Prince Scholler The holy Apostles saint Paule saint Peter declaring that the higher powers are ordained of god that whosoeuer do resist the power resist the ordinance of God and doe purchase to themselues damnation do straightly charge all Subiects to feare loue and to honor their Prince Humbly to obay all their Princes Lawes Commaundements Ministers or Officers And that not for feare onely but for conscience sake also To pay all Tributes Subsidies due to their Prince And with al their goods bodie faithfully to serue their Prince Hartely to pray to God for their Prince that he may continue and encrease in all goodnes godlines Or for his amendment if it chance that he be euill And in all things to bee themselues good Subiects that they may the better deserue to haue a good Prince M. Now tell mée the duties of Children towardes their Parents S. The holy Scriptures doe teach Children to obey their Parents and to serue them to feare loue honor and reuerence them not onely in word and deed but in their hearts and minds also To follow their good precepts and examples of life And patiently to take correction at their hands And to make continuall and hartie prayers to God for them And to relieue nourish their Parents in case they shall fall into pouertie or decay And in all points by shewing themselues obedient and good children to mooue their parents to bee louing and good to them M. I would now haue thée to shew mee what thou hast learned concerning the dutie of spirituall Children as Parishioners and Hearers towards their Pastors Preachers as their spirituall Fathers S. Parishioners and Hearers are commaunded in the word of GOD to giue double honor vnto their Pastors preachers that is aswell to reuerence and obey them as also to assist and ayde them in word deed And they ought to take great care that the good seede of Gods word by them sowne through the lacke of their good heed taking and following of the same do not perish as cast into stonie and barren grounds M. Declare now the dutie of Seruants S. Seruants are thus taught their duties to their Masters in the holy Scriptures seruants obey them that are your bodily Maisters in al things with feare trembling in singlenes of your hart as vnto Christ not with eye seruice as men pleasers but as the seruants of Christ whatsoeuer you doe doe it as the will of God hartily with good wil as seruing the Lord and not men Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receiue the reward of inheritance for ye serue the Lord Christ M. Now my good Child though thou by age hast as yet more néed of thy precepts of obedience then of gouernement yet because God may will I trust make thée a good old man I would not haue thée ignorant how to behaue thy selfe in any estate of life whereunto God may call thée hereafter Wherefore I would haue thée to tell me what on the other part thou hast learned touching the duties of Parents Maisters or Houshoulders also of Husbands Wiues and first what is the dutie of Parents toward their Children S. The dutie of Parents towards their children as the same Apostle S. Paule teacheth is to bring them vp euen from the cradle in the feare and nurture of the Lord in shamefastnesse hatred of vice and loue of all vertue And to be themselues vnto their children examples of all godlines and vertuousnes And they ought to see their children kept frō idlenesse the Mother of all mischiefes and brought vp either in learning or in some good science or Art whereby they may get their liuings with honstye truth when they doe come to age M. Procéed now to the duties of Maisters and Houshoulders S. I haue learned that Maisters and Houshoulders as they are become in the stead of Parents to their Seruants and families so ought they to refraine them from idlenesse and by diligent instruction and good example to bring vp their seruants and housholdes in honest and comely manners and in all vertue And they ought to instruct their Apprentices in the knowledge of their occupatiōs euen as Parents would teach their own Children without all fraude delaying or concealing and when correction is necessarie they ought to giue it thē with such discretion pitie and desire of their amendment as louing Parents vse to deale with their deare children remembring alway that they haue also a Maister in Heauen M. Tell me nowe the dutie of Husbands towarde their Wiues S. I haue learned that the holy Apostle Saint Peter who was himselfe a maried man and S. Paule also doe teach maried men to liue with their wiues discreetlie according vnto knowledge
