you_o call_v more_o than_o father_n annib._n those_o which_o be_v too_o cruel_a to_o their_o child_n and_o beat_v they_o continual_o like_o slave_n for_o the_o least_o fault_n in_o the_o world_n guaz._n true_o those_o father_n be_v mislike_v of_o all_o man_n for_o that_o without_o discretion_n they_o measure_v their_o child_n by_o themselves_o and_o require_v at_o their_o hand_n a_o matter_n

my_o mind_n they_o deserve_v no_o other_o name_n then_o of_o schoolmaster_n for_o that_o they_o can_v manner_n their_o child_n well_o unless_o they_o have_v a_o rod_n in_o their_o hand_n for_o if_o they_o be_v right_a father_n they_o will_v be_v content_a that_o their_o child_n shall_v learn_v of_o they_o to_o know_v that_o the_o whole_a drift_n of_o humane_a law_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o refrain_v from_o do_v ill_a &_o to_o use_v to_o do_v that_o which_o be_v good_a and_o honest_a which_o a_o child_n be_v bring_v to_o rather_o by_o love_n than_o by_o force_n but_o the_o authority_n which_o some_o ignorant_a father_n take_v upon_o they_o be_v so_o great_a that_o without_o respect_v age_n place_n time_n degree_n fashion_n or_o any_o thing_n they_o will_v keep_v their_o child_n under_o by_o force_n and_o make_v they_o do_v every_o thing_n contrary_a to_o their_o own_o mind_n yea_o even_o to_o wear_v their_o apparel_n after_o the_o fashion_n of_o the_o good_a man_n of_o the_o time_n past_a annib._n it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o they_o do_v amiss_o in_o that_o whereby_o they_o make_v their_o child_n not_o to_o love_v they_o so_o hearty_o and_o to_o obey_v they_o rather_o for_o fear_n than_o affection_n beside_o they_o consider_v not_o that_o the_o beat_n without_o measure_n and_o the_o keep_v they_o in_o continual_a fear_n be_v the_o cause_n that_o a_o man_n can_v judge_v to_o what_o manner_n of_o life_n they_o be_v natural_o incline_v moreover_o it_o dull_v their_o wit_n and_o repress_v their_o natural_a vigour_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o there_o be_v no_o mettle_n leave_v in_o they_o and_o by_o fear_v always_o to_o fail_v in_o their_o do_n they_o never_o but_o fail_v in_o they_o and_o come_v in_o any_o company_n they_o know_v neither_o which_z way_n to_o look_v nor_o what_o to_o do_v therefore_o they_o ought_v to_o leave_v their_o butchery_n beat_v and_o consider_v rather_o that_o for_o the_o lack_n of_o year_n their_o chidren_n can_v have_v perfect_a understanding_n and_o experience_n in_o thing_n whereby_o they_o be_v to_o be_v bear_v withal_o when_o they_o do_v amiss_o guaz._n i_o like_v those_o father_n well_o who_o can_v

ashamed_a of_o their_o fault_n but_o i_o be_o persuade_v that_o there_o be_v few_o father_n that_o know_v how_o to_o keep_v the_o mean_a but_o that_o they_o will_v either_o be_v to_o rough_a or_o to_o
