+of any thing that is in Heaven above, or that is in the Earth beneath,
+or that is in the Water under the Earth: thou shalt not bow down thy
+self to them, nor serve them; for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God,
+visiting the Iniquity of the Fathers upon the Children, unto the third
+and fourth generation of them that hate me, and showing mercy unto
+thousands, of them that love me and keep my Commandements._
+
+_Quest_. Which is the Third?

+Lord thy God, in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor
+thy daughter, thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thy cattel, nor
+thy stranger that is within thy gates; for in six dayes the Lord made
+Heaven and Earth, the Sea, and all that in them is, and rested the
+seventh day; wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath-day, and hallowed
+it_.
+
+_Quest_. Which is the Fifth?
+

+
+_Quest._ Which is the Tenth?
+
+Answ. _Thou shalt not Covet thy Neighbour's House, thou shalt not Covet
+thy Neighbours Wife, nor his Man-servant, nor his Maid-servant, nor his
+Oxe, nor his Ass, nor any thing that is thy Neighbour's._
+

+
+_Answ._ YES.

+Quest. _Are you able to keep them of your self?_
+
+_Answ._ NO.

+Quest. _How long doth it last?_
+
+_Answ_. For Ever and Ever.
+
+Quest. _Is it not a sad thing to lie under the Wrath of God for ever? to
+lie in devouring Flames for Ever?_
+
+_Answ._ YES.
+
+Quest. _Can you deliver your self from Hell?_
+
+_Answ._ NO.

+
+_Answ._ Only by Jesus Christ?
+
+Quest. _Who is Jesus Christ?_
+
+_Answ_. The Son of God.
+
+Quest. _Is he not Man also?_
+
+_Answ._ YES. He was always God, and in the Fullness of time became Man,
+and so he is both God and Man, in two Natures, and one Person for ever.
+
+Quest. _What hath Christ done for Sinners?_
+
+_Answ._ He hath died for them.
+
+Quest. _What Death did he die?_
+
+_Answ._ The Death of the Cross.

+
+_Answ._ To rest upon Him for Salvation.
+
+Quest. _What grounds of Encouragement have we to rest upon Christ for
+Salvation?_

+ 1. He is an only Saviour.
+ 2. He is an able Saviour.

+
+_Answ._ John 3. 16. _God so loved the World, that he gave his only
+begotten Son; that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but
+have Everlasting Life._ John 6. 37. _Him that comes unto me, I will in
+no wise cast out._ I Tim. 1. 15. _This is a faithful saying, and worthy
+of all acceptation, that_ Jesus Christ _came into the World to save
+sinners._
+
+Quest. _Multitudes are called and invited, why do they not come to
+Christ?_

+
+
+
+
+_VERSES,_
+
+_For little Children to Learn_.
+
+ I Must Pray
+ Both Night and Day.
+ Before I Eat,
+ I must entreat
+ That God would Bless to me my Meat.
+ I must not play
+ On the Sabbath-day:
+ But I must hear
+ God's Word in Fear.
+ I must not SWEAR.
+ I must not Lye, I must not Feign,
+ I must not take God's Name in vain.
+ I must not Rail.
+ I must not Steal.
+ It is a Sin
+ To steal a Pin,
+ Much more to steal a greater thing.
+ It's better for me to be poor,
+ And beg my Bread from door to door,
+ Than to steal my Neighbour's Store.
+ I must Work, and I must Pray,
+ And God will feed me day by day,
+ Mine honest Labours God will Bless,
+ But he hateth Idleness.
+ My King, and all my Governors,
+ My Parents and Superiors,
+ These I must Honour and Obey,
+ To these I must my Duty pay.
+ I must not be Rude nor Wild,
+ I must not be a Wanton Child:
+ I must sing no wanton Songs,
+ I must forgive my Neighbours wrongs:
+ I must speak of no Man ill,
+ But to all must bear good will:
+ I had better die
+ Than tell a Lie.
+ I must not sin,
+ A World to win.
+ My Tongue
+ Must do no wrong.
+ If my Tongue do here Rebel,
+ Then my Tongue must burn in Hell.
+ I must Read,
+ I must heed,
+ And on the Scriptures I must feed.
+ I must
+ Put my Trust
+ In Christ above,
+ The God of Love.
+ Christ alone my Soul can save,
+ And raise my Body from the Grave.
+ Christ alone must have my Heart,
+ Christ and I must never part.
+ Lord, Grant that I
+ In Faith may dye,
+ And live with Christ Eternally!
+ _AMEN._
+
+ * * * * *
+
+
+
+_SAYINGS,_
+
+_For little Children to Learn._
+
+
+Remember thy Creator in the dayes of thy Youth; and thy Creator will
+remember thee in the dayes of thy Old Age.
+
+ Praying
+ Is better than Playing.
+ Grace is better than Gold.
+ Singing of Psalms
+ Is better than Ringing of Bells.
+ Mothers love young Children,
+ And Christ loves young Saints.
+ It is better not to live in the World,
+ Than to live without God in the World.
+ One day in God's Courts,
+ Is better than a thousand elsewhere.
+ God's Presence makes Heaven, and
+ God's Absence makes Hell.
+ If I draw nigh to God,
+ God will draw nigh to me.
+ In God's Favour is Life, and
+ In God's displeasure is Death.
+ If I put off my Repentance to another day,
+ I have a day more to Repent of,
+ And a day, less to Repent in.
+ Christ is a poor Sinners Hope.
+ Christ's Blood is a Souls Ransom.
+ To have a Portion in the World is a Mercy,
+ But to have the World for a Portion is Misery.
+ An Interest in Christ is the greatest Interest.
+ The Love of God is sweeter than Wine,
+ And better than Life.
+ God's Ways are the best Ways,
+ God's Peace is the best Peace, and
+ God's People are the best People.
+ The worst of the ways of GOD, are better than the
+ best of the ways of Sin.
+ 'Tis better to suffer the greatest Suffering in the World,
+ Than to sin the least Sin in the World.
+ A poor Man is better than a Liar.
+ Without Holiness no Man shall see the Lord.
+
+
+
+ IF I BE NOT Holy,
+ Heaven cannot make me Happy.
+ I must do the Lords-Work
+ On the Lords-Day.
+ If I want a Dram of Grace to Tame my Tongue,
+ The time will come when I shall want a
+ drop of Water to Cool my
+ TONGUE.

+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org.

+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+ https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
