he_o q._n we_o learn_v then_o that_o this_o commandment_n may_v be_v break_v by_o swear_v either_o false_o or_o vain_o by_o talk_v of_o god_n work_n unreverent_o by_o vow_v or_o promise_v to_o god_n not_o care_v to_o perform_v the_o same_o by_o inconsiderate_a wish_n and_o wander_a prayer_n and_o last_o by_o make_v profession_n of_o serve_v god_n when_o we_o serve_v our_o own_o lust_n sin_n or_o satan_n a._n it_o be_v true_a but_o one_o thing_n i_o have_v almost_o forget_v for_o we_o dishonour_v god_n name_n not_o only_o in_o our_o wander_a prayer_n as_o be_v before_o say_v but_o also_o in_o pray_v to_o he_o for_o thing_n unseemly_o or_o that_o against_o our_o enemy_n he_o will_v be_v a_o executioner_n of_o our_o wrath_n in_o all_o these_o or_o such_o like_a request_n we_o dishonour_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n and_o also_o in_o oath_n beside_o false_a and_o vain_a swear_n already_o prove_v to_o be_v against_o this_o commandment_n it_o be_v a_o great_a dishonour_n to_o god_n name_v to_o match_v he_o with_o any_o other_o in_o swear_v or_o any_o other_o service_n of_o god_n as_o god_n people_n do_v for_o which_o god_n by_o his_o prophet_n threaten_v to_o destroy_v the_o land_n and_o to_o cut_v off_o the_o people_n and_o the_o beast_n the_o bird_n and_o the_o fish_n also_o and_o this_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o great_a cause_n of_o that_o general_a destruction_n because_o they_o do_v worship_n and_o swear_v by_o god_n 1.5_o zeph._n 1.5_o and_o by_o malcham_n for_o our_o great_a and_o mighty_a god_n who_o govern_v all_o thing_n as_o he_o will_v scorn_v so_o unequal_o to_o be_v match_v with_o idol_n or_o any_o creature_n q._n now_o beside_o all_o these_o transgression_n of_o this_o commandment_n we_o read_v that_o god_n very_o often_o find_v

be_v his_o true_a messenger_n &_o yet_o be_v nothing_o less_o do_v not_o such_o take_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o vain_a a._n certain_o they_o do_v so_o that_o as_o by_o that_o which_o have_v former_o be_v say_v we_o have_v learn_v how_o every_o man_n may_v transgress_v this_o law_n so_o here_o we_o be_v teach_v how_o these_o in_o their_o particular_a function_n do_v grievous_o and_o very_o dangerous_o for_o other_o break_v this_o commandment_n and_o herein_o do_v all_o popish_a and_o other_o false_a teacher_n wicked_o offend_v in_o that_o they_o vaunt_v themselves_o as_o messenger_n from_o god_n to_o teach_v his_o truth_n when_o they_o speak_v of_o nothing_o but_o their_o own_o fancy_n and_o man_n tradition_n unless_o as_o graceless_a murderer_n will_v cast_v sugar_n upon_o poison_n to_o deceive_v he_o that_o eat_v it_o so_o they_o now_o and_o then_o allege_v somewhat_o out_o of_o scripture_n to_o make_v their_o hearer_n believe_v that_o all_o that_o they_o deliver_v be_v like_o that_o when_o their_o doctrine_n and_o god_n word_n in_o his_o book_n deliver_v be_v no_o more_o like_a than_o night_n to_o day_n darkness_n to_o light_n or_o antichrist_n to_o

that_o duty_n and_o therefore_o moses_n though_o he_o do_v not_o any_o thing_n whereby_o god_n may_v be_v dishonour_v yet_o be_v charge_v not_o to_o have_v honour_v god_n because_o when_o opportunity_n serve_v with_o assure_a faith_n in_o god_n power_n and_o mercy_n he_o command_v not_o the_o rock_n to_o send_v forth_o water_n 17.6_o exod._n 17.6_o as_o sometime_o before_o he_o have_v

forbid_v to_o dishonour_n god_n name_n do_v necessary_o contain_v in_o it_o a_o commandment_n to_o honour_v the_o same_o and_o that_o worthy_o for_o the_o honour_n of_o his_o name_n be_v the_o first_o

therefore_o as_o you_o have_v teach_v we_o how_o his_o name_n may_v be_v in_o diverse_a sort_n or_o many_o way_n dishonour_v so_o let_v we_o hear_v how_o we_o may_v apply_v ourselves_o to_o honour_v the_o same_o a._n first_o if_o we_o do_v the_o contrary_a to_o those_o thing_n whereby_o god_n name_n be_v dishonour_v as_o if_o take_v his_o name_n in_o swear_v we_o swear_v always_o true_o and_o

these_o mean_v we_o shall_v right_o perform_v this_o holy_a service_n q._n be_v there_o not_o some_o particular_a or_o special_a observation_n which_o if_o we_o follow_v we_o may_v more_o religious_o
