but_o the_o other_o which_o be_v at_o her_o back_n have_v no_o harm_n at_o all_o whereby_o we_o may_v see_v that_o the_o father_n ofttimes_o do_v penance_n for_o his_o fondness_n but_o to_o return_v to_o our_o matter_n there_o be_v yet_o remain_v one_o occasion_n of_o the_o disagreement_n between_o the_o father_n and_o the_o child_n which_o be_v when_o the_o father_n will_v not_o suffer_v his_o

will_v rise_v three_o good_a effect_n the_o first_o be_v the_o love_n of_o the_o son_n who_o see_v his_o father_n withdraw_v himself_o by_o little_a &_o little_a from_o the_o government_n of_o the_o

he_o but_o withe_v he_o long_o to_o live_v on_o earth_n the_o second_o be_v the_o commodity_n of_o the_o son_n who_o by_o this_o mean_n after_o his_o father_n death_n shall_v have_v no_o need_n to_o seek_v counsel_n at_o his_o friend_n &_o kinsfolk_n hand_n nor_o to_o put_v the_o order_n of_o his_o house_n to_o the_o discretion_n of_o his_o servant_n have_v by_o the_o foresight_n of_o his_o
