¶ Of Masters.

Thy commandment is by thine holy Apostle (O most merciful Lord Christ, ye ⟨image 17⟩masters should entreat their servants gently, putting away threatenings, & doing that unto them, which is just and equal, forasmuch as we also have a master in heaven with whom there is no respect of persons. Grant I most heartily pray thee, I may so order my servants that I attempt none unrighteousness against them, but so use my rule and authority over them, that I may alway remember that thou art the common Lord of all, and we ⟨p. 16⟩all thy servants, again that I may not forget that we be all brothers having one father which is in heaven, and look for one glorious kingdom, where thou with the father and the holy Ghost livest and reignest true and everlasting God for ever.
