Where are you rebellious children? Where are you stubborn and disobedient daughters? Come lay your selves in the balance with Isaac; see how unlike him you be, he would yield to death, you will not yield to leave those things which are forbidden you only, because they will procure you death, undoing, destruction. O you rebels and wretches, you are far enough from being Isaacs. You set light by Father and Mother, and therefore against you ought all to take up a curse and ratify the same with Amen. Woe, woe unto you, undutiful children, who deal with your Parents as Israel dealt with God, they have brought up and nourished children which have rebelled against them. God shall cut you off from the land of the living, his hand shall be against you to destroy you,1 and the Eagles of the valley shall pick out your beastly eyes, that are bold to despise, sleight and disobey your Parents, and wilfully refuse to obey their lawful commandments.
