- 1Mat. v.
And for as much as David is a king, & hath vowed unto God to 1do the office of a true king, which is to maintain virtue and to expulse vice, he will not only provide that he him self keep these commandments, but that all his subjects also keep them even from the hiest to y• lowest. He will do his diligence that there shall no God be worship ⟨image 56⟩ped in his kingdom among his 2people, but the one and alone true God of Israel. Him only shall they honour, worship, praise, serve and love. Neither shall any graven image be suffered to be made in his Realm for to obscure & blot the glory of this almighty god. On the name of this God alone shall all his people call, & fly unto in their adversity praise & commend it for ever and ever, nether shall any of them be so bold as once to swear unjustly by it.
