for
there
is
no
gaine

carefull
to
learne

coueting
the

,
learne
diligently
and
retaine
faithfully
,
practise
painefully
,
and
be
ashamed
to

be
not
dogged

sullen
when
thou
art
corrected
,
reioyce
when
thou
art
praised
,
promise
to
thy selfe
great
things
by
thy
paines
,
and
feare
correction
.
Paines

brings
honor
in

;
moderately

temperately
eating

drinking
that
which

appointed
for

,
without

,
that

any

exercise
,
of
hearing

reading
,
speaking
or
meditating
of
Gods
Word
and
workes
.
1.
Of
Preparation
.
In
the
morning
early
prepare
thee
to
rise
vp
in
mind
&
body
,
to
serue
God
the
Creator
,
and
the
Son
our
Sauiour
,
through
the
grace
of
the
sanctifying
spirit
of
grace
,
shunning
and
hating
all
sinne
and
euill
,
in
thoughts
,
words
,
and
deedes
,
as
thou
art
commanded
to
sanctifie
and
keepe
holy
the
Sabbath
day
;
not
doing
thine
owne
will
,
not
speaking
vaine
words
,
nor
thinking
euill
thoughts
;
but
let
thy
will
be
led
to
do
the
will
of
God
heere
in
earth
as
it
is
in
heauen
;
and
let
thy
minde
cary
vp
thy
thoughts
to
meditate
on
the
creation
of
all
by
almighty
God
,
of
the
redemption
of
all
by
our
blessed
Sauiour
,
who
is
our
sanctification
,
righteousnes
and
eternall
rest
.
2.
In
the
Church
.
And
when
thou
commest
into
the
Church
or
congregation
assembled
in
the
name
of
God
to
heare
his
word
,
and
to
pray
and
cal
vpon
his
name
;
know
that
thou
art
in
the
presence
of
the
eternall
God
and
his
holy
Angels
,
who
not
only
seeth
thee
and
thy
behauiour
,
but
also
vnderstandeth
thy
thoughts
and
secret
motions
;
see
therefor●
thy
gesture
be
comely
.
3.
Of
Hearing
.
And
thy
behauiour
reuerent
,
giuing
due
regard
with
meekenes
vnto
the
word
of
God
,
that
the
sense
and
substance
thereof
may
enter
into
thy
mind
,
as
the
sound
doth
pierce
thy
eare
;
for
it
is
the
power
of
God
,
to
saue
thy
soule
,
if
thou
so
heare
and
reteine
it
;
or
else
it
is
the
sauor
of
death
vnto
death
,
vnto
thy
eternall
damnation
,
with
the
Diuell
and
his
Angels
,
if
thou
doest
carelessely
neglect
,
contemne
&
despise
it
:
but
if
thou
be
carefull
to
marke
what
sinne
is
reproued
,
and
flye
the
same
;
and
what
vertue
is
commended
,
and
embrace
th●
same
,
it
shall
then
amend
thy
memory
,
and
manners
to
grow
in
knowledge
,
to
learne
to
liue
and
die
as
a
Christian
.
4.
Of
Praying
.
In
the
time
of
prayer
,
thy
body
must
bee
humble
and
cast
downe
vpon
thy
knees
,
meekly
and
reuerently
lifting
vp
thy
hands
and
heart
vnto
God
in
heauen
;
ioyning
with
them
that
speake
in
praier
,
to
say
with
them
as
occasion
is
,
or
to
lift
vp
thy
minde
with
audible
and
good
voice
and
harty
affection
,
saying
Amen
.
And
remember
that
it
is
said
,
Whosoeuer
calleth
vpon
the
name
of
the
Lord
,
and
departeth
from
iniquitie
shall
be
saued
:
but
whosoeuer
doth
not
,
it
is
an
euident
token
of
a
wicked
and
vngodly
minde
,
as
it
is
said
The
wicked
call
not
vpon
the
Lord
,
and
therefore
there
is
no
faith
,
no
hope
,
no
saluation
,
for
them
.
5.
Of
the
articles
of
the
faith
.
When
the
Articles
of
faith
be
repeated
,
thou
must
with
like
reuerence
&
affection
,
either
standing
or
kneeling
,
pronounce
it
audibly
and
distinctly
;
for
as
thou
beleeuest
with
thy
heart
,
so
must
thou
confesse
with
thy
mouth
vnto
saluation
,
remembring
alwayes
to
ioyne
with
the
rest
,
in
saying
Amen
.
6.
Of
the
ten
Commandements
.
When
the
ten
Commandements
are
repeated
and
said
,
heare
them
with
great
reuerence
and
feare
,
considering
in
euery
one
thy
sin
and
defects
,
praying
for
mercy
and
grace
,
through
Christ
Iesus
,
to
endeuour
all
thy
heart
to
keepe
them
;
and
then
that
which
thou
canst
not
doe
,
he
wil
performe
.
7.
Of
singing
Psalmes
.
Likewise
when
Psalmes
and
praises
to
God
are
singing
,
vse
all
care
and
reuerence
in
singing
with
a
grace
and
affectionate
heart
,
keeping
tune
and
time
orderly
,
to
the
praise
of
the
God
of
order
.
8.
Not
to
goe
away
.
Remember
thou
gad
not
in
and
out
of
the
Church
and
Congregation
,
at
thy
pleasure
;
for
that
is
vngodly
,
vnseemely
,
and
verie
offensiue
.
9.
Not
to
prate
.
Neither
vse
to
prattle
,
or
priuatly
to
reade
or
thinke
of
matters
,
not
pertaining
to
the
place
and
worke
in
hand
;
for
that
is
to
offer
the
sacrifice
of
fooles
.
Tarie
vntill
all
the
seruice
of
God
be
performed
,
and
the
blessing
pronounced
,
lest
thou
shew
thy selfe
a
contemner
of
holy
things
,
and
one
vnworthy
to
be
partaker
thereof
;
as
Iudas
was
,
who
made
more
hast
then
good
speede
,
and
sped
accordingly
.
10.
Practise
.
Returning
out
,
vse
like
reuerent
behauiour
,
and
thinke
often
vpon
that
which
out
of
Gods
word

;
to
practise
it
in
thy
behauiour
;
and
know
,
that

▪
For
not
the

The

saying
,
If
thou
finde
hony
,
eate
thereof
;
but
eate
not
too
much
;
for
the
excesse
of
euery
thing
is
sinne
,
therefore
exceed
not
in
losse
of
time
,
but
see
thou
redeeme
it
with
the
losse
of
pleasure
,
&
thou

profit
.
Vse

OF
BEHAVIOVR
AT

.
1
AT
night
when
all
the
duties
of
the
day
are
ended
,
and
that
the
time
of
rest
is
come
,
approach
quietly

addresse
thee
,
to
the
reuerent
hearing
and
reading
of
the
word
of
God
,
according
as
the
nightly
exercises
require

if
it
be
in
singing
of
Psalmes
,
see
that
it
be
done
also
reuerently
with
due
regard
of
the
matter
as
well
as
the
method
,
and
melodie
,
which
must
also
be
regarded
,
as
we
are
by
God
commanded
to
sing
with
feeling
and
a
grace
in
the
heart
,
with
vnderstanding
and
skil
in
due
marking
and
keeping
the
time
and
tune
,
for
the
God
of
order
delighteth
in
concord
and
harmony
,
and
hateth
confusion
and
discord
,
especially
in
his
speciall
seruices
.
Therefore
sing
reuerently
,
orderly
and
deuoutly
,
keeping
time
and
tune
;
so
shall
it
please
God
,
and
be
comended
of
men
.

These
ended
,
commit
thy selfe
into
the
tuition
of
God
by

,
remembring
wherein
thou
hast
faulted
or
failed
of
thy
duty
,
to
call
for
mercy
,
&
wherein
through
grace
thou
hast
performed
or
desired
any
good
,
to
be
thankefull
vnto
him
that
is
the
fountaine
and
giuer
of
all
goodnes
.

readily
of
thee
to
be

OF

better
it

to
obey
God
then

)
not
with
eie-seruice
,
as
men
pleasers

fearing
God
;
and
whatsoeuer
you

Therefore

Take

Then
