this_o purpose_n keep_v constant_o at_o home_n except_o urgent_a and_o necessary_a occasion_n call_v you_o thence_o the_o entertainment_n your_o house_n will_v afford_v stranger_n though_o it_o be_v

to_o your_o house_n and_o table_n be_v not_o only_o courteous_a yourself_o to_o stranger_n but_o take_v care_n that_o your_o servant_n be_v so_o too_o kind_a reception_n and_o courteous_a admittance_n be_v as_o necessary_a before_o meat_n as_o digestion_n after_o it_o and_o he_o that_o will_v have_v thanks_o for_o his_o entertainment_n when_o it_o be_v past_a must_v bespeak_v it_o before_o it_o begin_v at_o his_o board_n that_o his_o victual_n and_o cheer_v be_v but_o a_o rumination_n of_o his_o first_o kindness_n and_o that_o his_o porch_n be_v as_o free_a as_o his_o hall_n keep_v about_o you_o therefore_o no_o morose_n or_o ill_a nature_a servant_n and_o as_o near_o as_o you_o can_v retain_v man_n of_o a_o good_a aspect_n and_o of_o sair_a and_o civil_a demeanour_n such_o will_v not_o only_o be_v a_o ornament_n and_o a_o honour_n to_o you_o but_o of_o much_o advantage_n for_o as_o on_o the_o one_o side_n it_o will_v invite_v person_n of_o quality_n and_o civility_n to_o you_o so_o on_o the_o other_o it_o will_v shame_v and_o deter_v the_o rude_a and_o more_o ungoverned_a sort_n of_o people_n who_o meet_v with_o such_o distonaut_n humour_n will_v either_o whole_o abstain_v

be_v banish_v christendom_n a_o servant_n be_v no_o other_o than_o one_o hire_v to_o such_o employment_n and_o under_o such_o term_n as_o he_o think_v fit_a to_o oblige_v himself_o the_o difference_n therefore_o betwixt_o the_o master_n and_o servant_n be_v not_o so_o very_o great_a for_o none_o can_v compel_v another_o to_o serve_v he_o against_o his_o will_n nor_o can_v i_o contract_v with_o

preserve_v he_o from_o hunger_n cold_a etc._n etc._n and_o what_o do_v he_o for_o this_o he_o serve_v i_o yes_o he_o do_v and_o do_v not_o he_o serve_v himself_o at_o the_o same_o time_n nay_o do_v
