that

will
doe

unto. But
the fecond eye fervicc which
is
moll damnable
is,
when
a
man
maketh this the
meafure
of
his
fervice,
viz.
the
eye
that
his

over
him.
The
meaning
is
this, further
then
his
mailer
lookes on

that
will tell how
he is
occupied,or further
then
his
mailer bath
fo
tooke
his
markes,
that
he
can tell
though ab-
¡lilt,
how he doth beflirre
him
:
further then
his
mailer can
thus
fee
him, he will doe nothing,and he careth
not what
lewd
part
he
commit,
if
it
(hail
not come
to his mailers knowledge: now
all fuch fervants
even
as

he cared
not
to (kale,
lye, nor doe
any
thing,
which
he
thought
his fimpering could hide
from
his
mailers
eye.
So
c,Mar.

there
is a
fervant,
who when
his
mailer
is
fure
for
a
while out
of the
way,
he
doth
beate
hiss
fellow
-
fervants and
fall
a
re-
velling.
This
therefore is
avice
to
be taxed
in
fervants:
the world
is
full
of
fuch
Camelions
as
can (hew any
colour white,
that
can look
with
all
countenances, but
they cannot
(hew fuch a face
as
corn meth
from
a
white
fincere
heart, they
are deepely gone
in
eye
fcrvicc: hence
it
is
that while
a man
is
nearer
them,they
will be filent,
and
as
buhe at
it
as
Ants, let
one
turne
his
backe, they will take them
a
(took,
fall a
talking, laughing one with another, yea ftep afide
to
drinke here
or
there
:
if
fome watchto give them
a call
before their mailers returne,
all
is
well
:
hence
come thofe doing our owne lu(ts, with
pretence
of
our Mailersbufine(fe.Such
aone
would have me goe
forh,Well
I
can-
not prefently, but be
at fuch
a
place, I will meete thee there
an
houre
hence;
the time drawcth
on, my youth taketh
his cloake
:
Whither
gee you
fire
I will
fee
if
fuch a
thing
be done, I will
call on fuch
a
one for money, whereas
he
goeth onely to meete with
fuch a
compa-
nion.
This
maketh them
if
they goe
of
an
errand,
they will
be fure
tot
'Ike
as
much time
to
their owne
priv.-cie,
as
their mailers
bufineffe:
they know
he
is
not
at their
heeles
:
yea this
maketh fome
that
will
looke you demurely,
if
their mailer eye them
:
but
if
he looke
off
them, they
will deride him to
his
head, by nodding or
(imperil).-
to
fome
of
their
fellowes
that
(land
by
:
and fervants are
fo farre
from
feting thefe damnable
firmes,
that they
will laugh
as
tickled one
to
another,
to thinke how cleanely they have carried the matter.
But
you daunce in
nets,
God
feeth
you,
yea and man
fometime,
when you
thinke not fo,
as
it faredwith
gebezi.
Yet
even this
that
a
hollow
hearted fervant will
be an
eye fervant,
good
while the
matter looketh
on
it;mu(t teach
mailers
this
wifedom,
to over-looke
the
waycs
of
their families, the mailers eye fatteth the
horfc
:
it
is
true
in all
other

the
