Here we see what a shameful doctrine of Popery it is to take away the word from all but Ministers. Whereas the Apostle maketh it a duty to all, even to women, whom they can not abide to be teachers, which yet they may in their own houses, giving place notwithstanding to the men, if there be any, but yet they may reprove those, that offend in their houses.

Here we see what a shamefull doctrine of Poperie it is to take away the word from all but Ministers. Whereas the Apostle maketh it a duty to all, euen to women, whom they can not abide to be teachers, which yet they may in their own houses, giuing place notwithstanding to the men, if there be any, but yet they may reproue those, that offend in their houses.

Thus much of the behaviour towards men. Towards God the duty is set down, that when we are merry &¹ cheerful to sing psalms and Hymns unto God.

1. 1Verse 16.

And therefore Saint James saith, if any be merry,¹ let him sing Psalms; so that it is a good thing that partaking of the blessings of God we should be merry and glad: but our mirth must be to the end we may glorify, and praise God for it.
