SECT. IV.
Doct. 4 Even this. That we are Gods servants, should be used to move the Lord to help us against sins; you know that in all relations 1there are mutual bonds and duties: the wife owes much of subjection to the husband, and the husband owes also much of love, respect and care to the wife: The Child owes much attendance, reverence, and affectionate duty to the Parents, and the Parents owe much of instruction, reproof, correction, nurture, provision of Estate for the child again: so is it betwixt the Lord and his servant, though to a mere slave, there be no mutual obligation, or else it is in that which is weak; yet to a servant, who stands in that relation, which they call Ingenuous; as much is due from him to his Lord, so, something his Lord ought to do for him, to feed him, to cloth him, to house and lodge him, to defend him against wrong and injuries.
