I Have described unto you the obedience of children, servants, wines, & subjects. These iiij. orders 1are of Gods making & the rules thereof are Gods word. He that keepeth them shall be blessed: yea is blessed all ready and he that breaketh them shall be cursed. If any person of impatience or of a stubborn and rebellious mind withdraw him self from any of these, and get him to any other order: let him not think thereby to avoid the vengeance of God in obeying rules and traditions of mans imagination. If thou polledst thine head in the worship of thy father and breakest his commandments, shouldest y• so escape? Or if thou paintedst thy masters image on a wall and stickedst up a candle before it, shouldest thou therewith make satisfaction, for the breaking of his commandments. Or if thou warest a blew coat in the worship of the king and brakest his laws shouldest thou so go quite. Let a mans wife make her self a sister of the charterhouse and answer her husband when he biddeth her hold her peace, my brethren keep silence for me, and see whether she shall so escape. And be thou sure God is more jealous over his commandments then man is over his, or then any man is over his wife.

If any person of impaciency or of a stubburne and rebellious mynde withdraw hym selfe from any of these, and get him to any other order: let hym not thinke thereby to auoyde the vengeaunce of God in obeying rules and traditions of mans imaginatiō. If thou poulledst thine head in the worship of thy father and breakest his commaundementes, shouldest y so escape? Or if thou payntedst thy masters image on a wall and stickedst vp a cādle before it, shouldest thou therewith make satisfaction, for the breaking of his cōmaundementes. Or if thou warest a blew coate in the worshyp of the kyng and brakest hys lawes shouldest thou so go quyte. Let a mans wife make her selfe a sister of the charterhouse and aūswere her husband when he byddeth her hold her peace, my brethren kepe silence for me, and see whether she shal so escape. And be thou sure God is more gelouse ouer his commaundementes then man is ouer hys, or then any man is ouer his wife.
