not_o that_o be_v nourish_v neither_o in_o child_n nor_o servant_n but_o stand_v you_o in_o power_n of_o god_n that_o his_o live_a witness_n may_v answer_v all_o your_o word_n and_o action_n and_o

wise_o towards_o they_o in_o all_o thing_n and_o strive_v not_o with_o they_o in_o your_o will_n in_o that_o nature_n which_o they_o be_v in_o lest_o you_o hurt_v yourselves_o thereby_o and_o harden_v they_o and_o know_v this_o that_o such_o will_v soon_o be_v win_v to_o the_o truth_n by_o your_o love_a and_o courteous_a behaviour_n towards_o they_o than_o they_o will_v by_o your_o strive_n with_o

that_o which_o the_o lord_n indignation_n burn_v against_o but_o will_v rather_o set_v their_o whole_a course_n of_o nature_n on_o fire_n and_o then_o you_o may_v show_v more_o wisdom_n in_o your_o
