| Our Father, &c. I beleeve in God, &c. | 155 | Pater noſter, &c. Credo in Deum Patrem &c. |
| O. | I would have you let me have thoſe ſhort Prayers. | Préculas iſtas volo communices. |
| P. | I doe not refuſe. | Non recuſo. | What doe you thinke of them? | 160 | Quid tibi videntur? |
| Q. | They ſeem very pious and effectuall, if you utter them from your heart. | Piae ſanè & efficáces, ſi proferas ex ánimo. |
| P. | My Maſter teacheth me ſuch as theſe. | Tales herus meus édocet me. |
| O. | I commend you both; him, becauſe he teacheth you ſo diligently, and you, becauſe you ſo greedily entertaine his doctrine into your minde. | 165 | Laudo utrumque; illum, quod te ſedulo doceat; te, quod illius doctri…iam tam ávidè demittas in ánimum. |
| P. | After I have thus commended my ſelfe to Chriſt, I goe out of my chamber, I doe my eaſement, I waſh my hands mouth and face, I comb my head; and then I take a book in my hands. | 170 175 | Poſtquam ſic me commendávi Chriſto, progrédior è cubiculo, exónero alvum, ábluo manus, os; fáciem, pecto caput; deinde ſúmitur mihi liber in manus. |
| O. | What a one firſt? | Qualis primum? |
| P. | A holy one. In this for a quarter of an houre I rather meditate then reade: and then I ſhut it againe. | 180 | Sacer. In hoc, ad quartam partem horae magis méditor, quàm lego: deinde recluditur. |
| O. | Then at the length I read any bookes; but eſpecially thoſe from whence I may learne good language, together with diſcretion. | 185 | Tum demum lego quoſcunque libros; ſed illos potiſſimum, undecl▪ quentiam cum prudentiâ ſimul hauriam. |
| How long are you imployed in that reading? | Quamdiu verſátis in ealectione? |
| Till my maſter be awake; for I attend him. whilſt he gets himſelfe ready. | 190 | Quoad herus expergiſcitur; nam huic, dum veſtitur, óperam do. |
| By and by I fall to my Book again, till he hath finiſhed the taſk of his houres. | Mox rurſus ad libros, donec horárum penſum abſolverit. |
| VVhen he ſaith Maſs I ſerve him, I pray. In the mean while, time requires, that we have a care alſo of our belly. | 195 | Cum ſacra facit, miniſtro precor. Interim tempus áppetit, ut & ventri proſpiciatur. |
| I take money and go to the market. | 200 | Ego ſumpta pecunia ad forum pródeo. |
| I buy either what he bade me, or what preſent plenty may afford. I make it ready; We get our dinner. | 205 | Emo, vel quae juſſit, vel quae praeſens copi… ſuppéditet. Paro; prandetur. |
| After dinner we walk abroad, if there be any need. | A prandio deambulâmus foràs, ſiqua necéſtita… eſt. |
| But if not, our garden affords us roome enough to walk in. | 120 | Sin minus, noſter hortus ſatis amplum ſpatian… praebet locum. |
| After thoſe things, I have leiſure to attend my Books or Buſineſſe, though thoſe very ſeldome call me away. | Poſt illa, rurſus vaco libris, vel negotiis, qua… quam illa perquam raro ávocant me. |
| About ſupper time I return to the kitchin. | 215 | Sub coenae tempus repé…o culinam. |
| All things are provided in a trice. | Momento témporis parantur omnia. |
| VVe ſup, we talk, but indeed nothing but holy diſcourſe. | 220 | Coenámus, fabulámur ſed ecaſtor non niſi ſacras fabulas. |
| And thus our mindes and bodies being refreſhed we goe to our chamber. | Sicque refectis ánimis pariter atque corporibus, ad cubiculum progrédimur. |
| He truly, juſt as if he was to depart out of the world that night, ſtrives ſo with prayers, ſighs, and tears. | 225 | Ipſe quidem, haud aliter quam ſi eâ nocte ſit emigrandum, ſic certat précibus, ſingultu, lácrymis. |
| I becauſe I am ſo much imployed, do bethink me of that dayes offences, with as much devotion as I can, I aſk forgiveneſſe, and I beſeech God my Father, that he would ſpare me through his mercy, who gave himſelfe for us. | 230 235 | Ego, quoniam tam excitátus ſum, quanta poſſum devotione, illius dici admiſſa reputo, véniam peto, & ut parcat, per illius qui ſe pro nobis impendet miſerecordiam, Deum Patrem obteſtor. |
| Then afterwards I add a ſhort prayer. | 240 | Poſtea precatiunculam ſubjicio. | A Prayer. | Orátio. | O Lord Jeſus Chriſt, have mercy upon me, becauſe I have ſinned againſt thee. | Domine Jeſu Chriſte, miſerere mei, quaeſo, quia peccávi tibi. | Save me hence forth from all evill…, ſtrengthen me in every good work, and doe not then caſt me off as a reprobate, when thou ſhalt render to every man according to his works. Amen. | 245 250 | Serva me deinceps ab omni malo, confirma me in omni opere bono, & noli me tunc reprobáre, quando reddes unicuique ſecundum opera ſua. Amen. | A Prayer. | Orátio. | O Lord Jeſus Chriſt, cauſe that our enemy and deceiver Satan may never come neer to this place. | 255 | Domine noſter Ieſu Chriſte, ſac ut inimicus & inſidiátor Satan hunc locum nunquam accédat. | Then at the laſt, I lye down quietly. | Tunc demum quiétè corpus depóno. |
| O. | I like that courſe of life paſſing well; and if I could I would faine imitate it. | 260 | Vehementer mihi arridet iſta vivendi rátio, & ſi poſſim, cupiam imitári. |
| P. | You may indeed, but be not awanting to your ſelfe, if any opportunity to live wel be given you. | Poſſis quidem, ſed ne deſis tibi, ſiqua bene vivendi dábitur opportúnitas. | Eſpecially ſince we doe not know how long we are to live here. | 265 | Praeſertim quum ſit in dúbio, quám diu ſimus hîc victúri. |
| O. | You ſpeake very truly. | Veriſſimè loqueris. | Fare you wel, I am called. | Tu bene valébis, ego vocor. |
| P. | I wiſh you well to fare, honeſt youth. | 270 | Opto tibi bene valére, optime juvenis. |
