Q. What is the Law of God?
I. Thou shalt have none other Gods before me.
I. Thou shalt haue none other Gods before mee.
II. Thou shalt make thee no graven Image, neither any similitude of things that are in heaven above, neither that are in the earth beneath, nor that are in the waters under the earth: Thou shalt not bow down to them, nor serve them; for I am the Lord thy God, a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the Fathers upon the children unto the third generation, and unto the fourth of them that hate me; and showing mercy unto thousands, to them that love me, and keep my Commandments.
