so_o to_o do_v for_o servant_n owe_v almost_o as_o much_o duty_n to_o their_o master_n as_o child_n to_o their_o parent_n or_o subject_n to_o their_o natural_a prince_n for_o servant_n be_v not_o

neither_o power_n nor_o obedience_n leave_v their_o own_o servant_n without_o rule_n or_o guide_n for_o when_o a_o master_n be_v from_o home_n his_o family_n be_v like_o a_o body_n without_o a_o

but_o some_o may_v think_v it_o strange_a that_o there_o be_v as_o few_o master_n that_o know_v how_o to_o govern_v their_o family_n wise_o as_o there_o be_v king_n that_o know_v how_o to_o rule_v
