your_o eye_n on_o other_o person_n that_o be_v below_o you_o who_o may_v charge_v you_o it_o be_v possible_a with_o many_o sin_n more_o consider_v what_o care_n have_v you_o take_v of_o your_o child_n your_o servant_n and_o all_o other_o who_o be_v commit_v to_o your_o charge_n that_o they_o may_v want_v nothing_o that_o be_v needful_a either_o for_o their_o soul_n or_o body_n have_v you_o make_v

all_o that_o you_o have_v to_o do_v if_o you_o design_v a_o reformation_n for_o you_o be_v to_o consider_v how_o you_o have_v respect_v yourselves_o to_o who_o there_o be_v a_o great_a reverence_n due_a and_o who_o many_o thing_n do_v very_o much_o misbecome_v as_o for_o example_n be_v it_o fit_a for_o a_o rational_a creature_n to_o mind_n nothing_o else_o but_o get_v of_o wealth_n which_o he_o
