be If Sergeant thee in prison set Thence till thou pay thou shalt not get Of Adultery It was of old time also said Commit not thou adultery But I say looke you be affrayd To gaze on women lustfully Who so doth so doth for his part Commit adult'rie in his hart If thy right eye or hand offend Plucke out or cut and cast away For it is to a better end One member perish and decay Then all thy body thou know'st well Should wholly so be cast to hell Of Diuorcement It hath bene said who so had sent His wife away he giuing her A letter of their diuorcement Had not bene then an offender Except the wife a whore be found To liue with her the man is bound Who so commits adultery The man or woman doth amisse And for that fault may verely Diuorced be as reason is No such offender may therefore While th'other liues match any more Of Othes Againe of old they did forbid Forswearing for the same is ill Of othes each man his house should rid So to obay Iehouahs will Othes rightly made do not delay For to performe the same alway But otherwise sweare not at all No not by heau'n the throne of God Nor by the earth for so ye fall In danger to deserue his rod. Nor by Ierusalem for this The Citie of the king it is Nor by thine head thou canst not make One haire thereof as blacke or white Most vaine are they that othes do take And vaine those that in othes delight Let ye and nay declare your will What so is more doth come of ill Of Reuenge Reuenge not though the law be so That eye or tooth must be repayde When one doth smite thee as a foe Vse patience be not dismay'd And he that for thy coate will sue Giue him thy cloake and more then due If one compell thee for a myle Do thou at least go with him twaine The asker do thou not reuile Giue thou and lend without disdaine To do men good be ready still And slow to do thy neighbour ill Loue thine enemie Loue thou say they thy neighbour well Thine enemy thy selfe may hate Of vertues loue doth all excell What so the Pharisies do prate Your enemies loue not the worse And blesse you them that do you curse Do good to them that do you hate Pray for them that you persecute They sure shall haue a blessed state My fathers will that execute He makes his sunne and rayne to fall On good and bad alike to all If man do loue or frendly be To him that doth to him the same What thankes for that deserueth he Each sinner must do this for shame Haue you therefore regard of this Be perfit as your father is Almes By sound of trumpe and in mens sight As hypocrites are wont to do To giue thine almes is not aright They gape for prayse and get no mo In secret giue what God hath sent God will reward thy good intent Prayer Pray not as hypocrites do pray All open to be seene of men But when thy prayers thou will say Shut close in chamber be thou then Pray to thy father secretly He will reward thee openly Much babling see thou do not vse Nor repetitions they are vaine The heathen hope for like abuse Some great reward thereby to gaine Be not like them for God in deed Before ye aske doth know your need The Lordes Prayer Pray thus when ye do pray therefore Our father which in heauen art Thy name be hallow'd euermore Thy kingdome we desire in hart Thy will in earth make vs to do As it in heau'n is euen so Giue vs this day our dayly bread Our debtes forgiue vs we thee pray As we our debters do and lead Vs not Oh Lord by any way Into temptation but see From euill we deliu'red be For thine good Lord the kingdome sure The power and the glorie is For euermore for to endure Which liuest in eternall blisse Let this be done oh Lord we pray In heart whereto Amen we say To forgiue one another If ye mens trespasses forgiue Your heau'nly father will againe Forgiue you yours you while you liue In loue and concord must remaine If you forgiue not other men Your faultes God will not forgiue then Fast Moreouer when that ye do fast Looke not sowre as the hypocrite That time as vayne they vainly wast For God therein hath no delite Their faces they disfigure to That men may see what then they do When thou doest fast annoint thy head And let thy face then washed be Seeme not to men as one halfe dead Let God thy deedes in secret see Thy heau'nly father both regards Thy fast and theirs haue their rewards The carefull seeking of worldly things forbidden On earth hoord vp no treasure so Where moath and canker eate apace Lest with them you do heape on woe There theeues men voyde of better grace Breake vp thus they for riches deale When digging through mēs wealth they steale But lay your treasures vp aboue In heau'n where none of these are found You on your treasures set your loue Lay not your loue so on this ground But lay it where is no decay Earth will corrupt and fade away The eye doth giue the body light And reason rules the inner man If cleare and sound remaine the sight No darknesse hurt that body can If thine eye wicked be then marke Sure all thy body shall be darke Two masters well no man can serue For truly he the one will hate And for the other loue reserue This of mans life is right the state God and your riches disagree They may not both then serued be Set not your care on meate and drinke Nor yet on your apparell so You with your selues must alwayes thinke That howsoeuer here ye go He that gaue life and body will Prouide you meate and clothing still The fowles of heau'n ye may behold To sow or reape they haue no care They neither want nor suffer cold Much better farre then them ye are Your heau'nly father feedeth these And so will you if you him please Which of you can by taking care One cubite ad vnto his length Clothing you know what things they are Who giueth them and giueth strength Learne of the lyllies how they grow To spinne or carde they do not know Yet Salomon to you I say Was not aray'd like one of theafe The grasse if God do so aray Can he not cloth you if he please The faithfull neuer fayle to speed God more regards you then a weed For meate for drinke for cloth alway Take ye no thought at all therefore The Gentiles seeke these day by day Your heau'nly father euermore Will all your wants relieue in deed He knoweth well what things ye need Gods kingdome if ye do seeke first You can not wish but you
