Vers. 10.
And oppresse not the widdowe, nor the fatherles, the stranger, nor the poore, and let none of you imagine euill against his brother in your heart.

* 1.1THe third sort hath those duties, the which men doe owe par∣ticularlie vnto certaine persons by the commandement and feeling of true charitie it selfe, that is, rather, and more readily then vnto the rest of other men. And these are such dueties as both the law of GOD, and also the feeling of humanitie it selfe doth commaund vs to performe especiallie vnto persons afflic∣ted, or in trouble and misery, as vnto Widdowes, Fatherles children, strangers, the poore, and such as are destitute or voyde of man his help Deut. 16. ver. 11.14. Psal. 82. And this is that which we doe owe vnto them, namely, that because they easelie lie open vnto iniu∣ries and wrongs, and are not able to resist, and stand against those that oppresse them, we neither should our selues take from them that which is their own, nor suffer it to be taken away from them. Finallie, by way of making it more plaine, it is here further shew∣ed, what maner of charitie or loue ours ought to bee towards them, and also all other men, namely, that we should not so much as in heart thinke, or wish, or deuise any euill against them, much lesse execute it in deed.
