A generall Admonition.

DEare Countrey men, what I have heere done, is intended for a generall good, Cautionary for all.

  • 1. Parents. 2. Children.
  • 3. Masters. 4. Servants.
  • 1 Parents, cast not off your Children, neither leave them to shift in the wilde world in their Youth, knowing how subiect Youth is unto temptation, and to be seduced in the times of necessitie, and extreame want.
  • 2 Children, obey your earthly Parents: unto such as obey, God hath promised his two-fold blessing: first, Life tempo∣rall: Secondly, Life eternall.
  • 3 Masters terrestriall, be good to your earthly Servants, knowing yee have all one Master, which is Christ in Heaven, that shall one day judge you for the good and evill yee have done.
  • 4 Servants, obey your earthly Masters, and the Masters autho∣rity is knowne by obedience to their Commandments: Who∣soever resisteth, receiveth the greater condemnation.

One thing more I will commend unto you, the mo∣desty of a milke-woman, in finding him naked cove∣reth him with her approne.
