THe dutie of childrē toward their parentes is, in their minde to loue them, outwardly to reuerence and honour them, to obey them in all thynges that are agreable to Gods will, and if they chaunce to fall into pouertie, to helpe thē, and to geue them wherof to liue.
Honour thy father frō thy whole hart,* 1.1 and forget not the sorrowfull
trauell yt thy mother had with thee. Remember that thou wast borne through them, and how canst thou recompence them the thinges that they haue done for thee?
Children,* 1.2 obey your fathers and mothers in the Lord: for yt is right. Honour thy father and mother (the same is the first cōmaundement in the promise) that thou mayest pro∣sper, and liue long on earth.
