for_o your_o officer_n their_o charge_n be_v so_o great_a that_o we_o desire_v not_o their_o place_n for_o we_o hold_v a_o private_a quiet_a better_a than_o a_o public_a trouble_n and_o a_o clean_a conscience_n worth_a a_o world_n of_o wealth_n now_o for_o your_o order_n perhaps_o your_o need_n of_o they_o be_v great_a where_o disorder_n may_v be_v grievous_a for_o we_o in_o the_o country_n we_o have_v few_o but_o in_o the_o church_n for_o our_o seat_n and_o at_o our_o meeting_n for_o our_o place_n where_o when_o master_n justice_n and_o the_o high_a constable_n be_v set_v honest_a man_n like_o good_a fellow_n will_v sit_v together_o except_o at_o a_o session_n or_o a_o assize_n we_o be_v call_v upon_o a_o jury_n then_o as_o it_o please_v the_o clerk_n of_o the_o peace_n set_v one_o afore_o another_o and_o therefore_o for_o order_n what_o need_v we_o trouble_v ourselves_o with_o other_o than_o we_o be_v use_v unto_o i_o remember_v i_o have_v hear_v my_o father_n tell_v of_o a_o world_n of_o order_n he_o have_v see_v in_o diverse_a place_n where_o he_o have_v travel_v where_o right_o good_a gentleman_n that_o have_v follow_v great_a lord_n and_o lady_n have_v enough_o to_o do_v to_o study_v order_n in_o their_o service_n a_o trencher_n must_v not_o be_v lay_v nor_o a_o napkin_n fold_v out_o of_o order_n a_o dish_n set_v down_o out_o of_o order_n a_o capon_n carve_v nor_o a_o rabbit_n unlace_v out_o of_o order_n a_o goose_n break_v up_o nor_o a_o pastry_n cut_v up_o out_o of_o order_n a_o glass_n fill_v nor_o a_o cup_n uncover_v nor_o deliver_v out_o of_o order_n you_o must_v not_o stand_v speak_v nor_o look_v out_o of_o order_n which_o be_v such_o a_o business_n for_o we_o to_o go_v about_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v all_o out_o of_o time_n ere_o we_o shall_v get_v into_o any_o good_a order_n but_o in_o that_o there_o be_v difference_n of_o place_n and_o every_o one_o must_v have_v their_o due_n it_o be_v meet_v for_o good_a manner_n to_o keep_v the_o rule_n of_o good_a order_n but_o how_o much_o more_o at_o rest_n be_v we_o in_o the_o country_n that_o be_v not_o trouble_v with_o these_o duty_n now_o for_o your_o eye_n of_o brightness_n i_o fear_v you_o be_v not_o trouble_v with_o too_o many_o of_o they_o late_o sit_v up_o long_o watch_v and_o night_n business_n as_o write_n reading_n cast_v up_o of_o account_n long_a watch_n and_o such_o like_a other_o business_n beside_o game_a play_v at_o card_n table_n and_o dice_n or_o such_o sport_n as_o spend_v time_n be_v all_o dangerous_a for_o weak_a sight_n and_o make_v a_o world_n of_o sore_a eye_n but_o as_o you_o say_v some_o of_o the_o best_a sort_n be_v wise_a in_o their_o action_n and_o more_o temperate_a in_o their_o motion_n and_o therefore_o keep_v their_o sight_n in_o more_o perfection_n which_o may_v be_v example_n to_o other_o if_o they_o have_v the_o grace_n to_o follow_v they_o but_o for_o our_o eye_n if_o we_o do_v not_o hurt_v they_o with_o a_o stripe_n of_o a_o twig_n in_o the_o wood_n a_o flyo_n in_o the_o air_n or_o a_o mote_n in_o the_o sun_n our_o eye_n be_v as_o bright_a as_o crystal_n so_o that_o we_o can_v see_v the_o least_o thing_n that_o may_v do_v we_o good_a and_o if_o we_o can_v see_v the_o sun_n in_o the_o morning_n and_o the_o moon_n a_o night_n see_v our_o cattle_n in_o our_o pasture_n our_o sheep_n in_o the_o common_a our_o corn_n in_o the_o field_n our_o house_n in_o repair_n and_o our_o money_n in_o our_o purse_n our_o meat_n on_o our_o table_n and_o our_o wine_n with_o our_o child_n and_o look_v up_o to_o heaven_n and_o give_v god_n thanks_n for_o all_o we_o seek_v no_o better_a sight_n now_o for_o the_o cleanness_n of_o your_o hand_n i_o fear_v that_o now_o and_o then_o some_o of_o you_o have_v your_o hand_n so_o trouble_v with_o a_o itch_n that_o you_o must_v have_v they_o anoint_v with_o the_o oil_n of_o gold_n before_o you_o can_v fall_v to_o any_o good_a work_n and_o some_o of_o yes_o that_o though_o your_o wit_n have_v good_a invention_n yet_o you_o can_v write_v without_o a_o golden_a pen_n which_o indeed_o best_a fit_v a_o sine_fw-la hand_n but_o for_o we_o in_o the_o country_n when_o we_o have_v wash_v our_o hand_n after_o no_o foul_a work_n nor_o handle_v any_o unwholesome_a thing_n we_o need_v no_o little_a fork_n to_o make_v hay_n with_o our_o mouth_n to_o throw_v our_o meat_n into_o they_o now_o for_o the_o pureness_n of_o your_o heart_n except_o king_n queen_n and_o prince_n and_o such_o great_a person_n make_v no_o comparison_n with_o country_n people_n where_o yea_o and_o nay_o be_v our_o word_n of_o truth_n faith_n and_o troth_n be_v our_o bond_n of_o love_n plain_a deal_n passage_n of_o honesty_n and_o kind_a thanks_n continue_v good_a neighbourhood_n a_o liar_n be_v hate_v a_o scoffer_n scorn_v a_o spendthrift_n deride_v and_o a_o miser_n not_o belove_v a_o swaggerer_n imprison_v a_o drunkard_n punish_v and_o a_o juggler_n whip_v and_o a_o thief_n hang_v for_o our_o heart_n will_v harbour_v no_o such_o guest_n and_o for_o love_n two_o eye_n and_o one_o heart_n two_o hand_n and_o one_o body_n two_o lover_n and_o one_o love_n tie_v a_o knot_n of_o such_o truth_n as_o nought_o but_o death_n can_v undo_v now_o for_o brain_n of_o wisdom_n i_o think_v he_o be_v wise_a that_o keep_v his_o own_o and_o spend_v no_o more_o than_o needs_o than_o he_o that_o spend_v much_o in_o hope_n of_o a_o little_a and_o yet_o may_v hay_n loose_v that_o too_o at_o last_o now_o for_o tongue_n of_o truth_n let_v i_o tell_v you_o fair_a word_n make_v fool_n fain_o and_o court_n holy-water_n will_v scarce_o wash_v a_o foul_a shirt_n clean_o except_o it_o come_v from_o such_o a_o fountain_n as_o every_o man_n must_v not_o dip_v his_o finger_n in_o but_o cousin_n when_o heart_n and_o hand_n go_v together_o word_n and_o deed_n go_v together_o these_o be_v the_o tongue_n that_o will_v not_o falter_v in_o their_o tale_n but_o tell_v truth_n in_o the_o face_n of_o the_o wide_a world_n and_o therefore_o except_v the_o best_a that_o may_v be_v example_n to_o the_o rest_n i_o think_v if_o truth_n be_v any_o where_o she_o be_v in_o the_o country_n now_o for_o the_o nobleness_n of_o mind_n it_o fit_v the_o person_n in_o their_o place_n but_o for_o we_o in_o the_o country_n we_o have_v rather_o have_v old_a noble_n in_o our_o purse_n than_o a_o bare_a name_n of_o noble_a without_o noble_n the_o reason_n may_v be_v that_o we_o do_v not_o know_v the_o nature_n of_o nobleness_n so_o well_o as_o we_o do_v of_o noble_n and_o therefore_o we_o hear_v only_o so_o much_o of_o the_o cost_n of_o it_o that_o we_o have_v no_o heart_n to_o look_v after_o it_o but_o where_o it_o be_v true_o we_o honour_v it_o and_o say_v god_n bless_v they_o that_o have_v it_o and_o if_o they_o be_v worthy_a of_o it_o well_o may_v they_o keep_v it_o and_o that_o be_v all_o that_o i_o say_v to_o it_o now_o to_o spirit_n of_o goodness_n alas_o there_o be_v not_o one_o in_o the_o world_n christ_n jesus_n our_o saviour_n say_v so_o there_o be_v none_o good_a but_o god_n and_o if_o there_o be_v any_o on_o the_o earth_n i_o think_v a_o good_a belief_n and_o a_o good_a life_n do_v best_a express_v the_o nature_n of_o it_o to_o conclude_v with_o virtue_n in_o which_o you_o lay_v up_o all_o the_o treasure_n of_o life_n i_o doubt_v not_o it_o be_v in_o the_o best_a i_o will_v it_o be_v so_o in_o all_o with_o you_o but_o be_v it_o where_o it_o please_v god_n to_o send_v it_o once_o i_o very_o believe_v it_o to_o be_v as_o true_o in_o the_o country_n as_o in_o place_n of_o high_a compass_n and_o by_o your_o leave_n let_v i_o tell_v you_o of_o a_o riddle_n of_o my_o father_n one_o writing_n touch_v that_o rare_a and_o precious_a jewel_n there_o be_v a_o secret_a few_o do_v know_v and_o do_v in_o special_a place_n grow_v a_o rich_a man_n praise_n a_o poor_a man_n wealth_n a_o weak_a man_n strength_n a_o sick_a man_n health_n a_o lady_n beauty_n a_o lord_n bliss_n a_o matchless_a jewel_n where_o it_o be_v and_o make_v where_o it_o be_v true_o see_v a_o gracious_a king_n and_o glorious_a queen_n and_o this_o say_v he_o be_v virtue_n which_o though_o he_o understand_v in_o the_o court_n yet_o he_o make_v use_v of_o it_o in_o the_o country_n now_o therefore_o good_a cousin_n be_v content_a with_o your_o humour_n and_o let_v i_o alone_o with_o i_o i_o think_v i_o have_v answer_v all_o your_o position_n and_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o whatsoever_o you_o say_v i_o very_o believe_v that_o ere_o you_o die_v i_o shall_v find_v you_o rather_o in_o the_o
