The DE╌CA╌LOGVE, or MORAL Law of God, writt╌en in two Tables, and con╌tain╌ing a pre╌façe, ten Com╌mand╌mentss, and rea╌sonss an╌nex╌ed to-some-of-the-com╌mand╌ments, Exod. 20.1. DE╌CALOGUS, seu Lex-diuína-morális, inscrípta duábus-Tábulis, & cóntinens Praefatiónem, decem-mandáta, unà-cum-Ratiónibus annéxis nonnúllis-mandatis, Exod. XX. 1. GOd spoke âll these words, say╌ing, The Prefaçe. I am the Lord thy god, which have brought thee out of the Land of E╌gypt, out of the house of bond╌age. Locútus est Deus ómnia-verba-haec, dicens, Praefátio, sive-exórdium. Ego sum Dóminus deus-tuus, qui edúxi te ex-terrâ Aegypti, ex-domo servit útis. First Com╌mand╌ment. 1 Thou shâlt have no o╌ther gods be╌fore me. Primum-Mandatum. I. Non habébis Deos-aliénos coramme. Se╌cond. 2. Thou shâlt not make unto thee a╌ny gra╌ven i╌mage, or a╌ny like╌ness of a╌ny-thing, that is in-hea╌ven a╌bove, or that is in the earth be╌neath, or that is in the wâ╌terss un╌der the earth; Thou shâlt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them Secundum. II. Non fáçies tibi imaginem-quamvis-scúlptilem, aut similitúdinem rei-cujúsvis, quae est in-coelis supérnè, aut infériùs interris, aut in-aquis infra-Terram: Non incuruábis te iis, nec iis sérvies. Reasons 1. For I, the Lord, Rationes. 1. Siquidem Ego Dóminus, 2. Thy God, 2. Deus-tuus, 3. am a jéa╌lôus God, 3. Deus sum zelótypus, I. Vi╌sit╌ing the in╌i╌qui╌tieses of the fa╌thers' up╌on the chil╌drens, un╌to the third, and fourth-ge╌ne╌ra╌ti╌on of them-that-hate me, 1. Visitans iniquitátes patrum in-filios, ad tertiam-usque, quartamque-progeniem osórummei; II. And shew╌ing mer╌çy un╌to thou╌sandss of them, that love me, and keep my-com╌mand╌ments. II. Exhihens verò miseric órdiam admillenas usque diligentium me, ac observantium mandáta-méa. Third. 3. Thou-shâlt-not-take the Name of-the Lord-thy-god invain. Tertium. III. Nomen Dómini Deì-tui inánitèr non-usurpábis. Reason. For the Lord will not hôld him guilt╌less, ●●at taketh his Name in╌ vain. Ratio. Non enim habébit Dóminus, eum pro-insonte, qui nomenejus adhibuerit inániter Fourth Com╌mand╌ment. 4. Re╌mem╌ber the Sab╌bath-day to╌ keep-it-ho╌ly. Quartum- Mandatum. iv Memîneris diem-Sábbati, ut-sanctîfices-eum. Reasons. 1. Six day's shâlt thou la╌bour, and do âll thy work. Rationes. 1. Sex-diébus operáberis, & fácies omne-opus-tuum. 2. But the se╌venth day is the Sab╌bath of the Lord thy God. In it Thou-shâlt not do any work, Thou, nor thy son, nor thy daugh╌ter, thy man╌seru╌ant, nor thy maid╌seru╌ant, nor thy cat╌tel, nor thy stran╌ger, that is with╌in thy gates. 2. Séptimus vero diés est Sabbatum dómini dei-tui. Ineo nullum-opus fancies. Tu, neque fìlius-tuus, neque fìlia-tua, nec servus-tuus, nec ancîlla tua, neque juméntum-tuum, nec hospes-tuus, quic únque intra-portas-tuas commorátur. 3. For in six days, the Lord made hea╌ven, and earth, the sea, and âll that inthem is, and rest╌ed the se╌venth- day; 3. Name sex-diébus perfécit dóminus caelum, Terramque, mare, & quicquid in-illis continetur; séptimo verò die requiévit. 4. Where╌fore the Lord bless╌ed the Sab╌bath day, and hal╌lôw╌ed it. 4. quámobrèm benedìxit dóminus dei-sábbati, eumque-sanctificávit. The sum of the 4 first com╌mand╌mentss, is, to love the Lord our god, with âll our heart, with âll our sôul, with âll our strength, and with âll our mind, Mat. 22.37, 38. Summa mandatórum quatuor priórum haec est, ut diligámus dóminum, deum nostrum, ex toto cord, ex totâ ánimâ, ex totis Víribus, & ex totâ ment nostrâ, Mat. 22.37, 38. Fifth. 5. Ho╌nour thy-fa╌ther, and thy-mo╌ther. Reason. That thy days may be long in-the-land, which the Lord thy-God giu╌eth thee. Quintum. V Honóra Patrem tuum, ac Matreus tuam. Sixth. 6. Thou shâlt not kill. Sextum. 6. Non occides. Séventh. 7. Thou shâlt not com╌mit ad╌ul╌te╌ry Septimum. 7. Non maecháberis. Eighth. 8. Thou shâlt not steal. Octavum. 8. Non furaberis. Ninth. 9 Thou-shalt-not-bear-fâlse-wit╌ness a╌gainst thy neigh╌bour. Nonum. 9 Non-eris-testis-mendax. aduèrsus-proximum-tuum. Tenth. 10. Thou shâlt not co╌vet thy neigh╌bours' house, thou shâlt not co╌vet thy neigh╌bours' wife, nor his man╌servant, nor his maid╌seru-ant, nor his ox, nor his Ass, nor a╌ny-thing, that is thy neigh╌bourss. Decimum. 10. Non concupisces uxórem proximi-tui, Non concupisces domum próximi-tui, non servum, non ancillam, non bovem, non ásinum, néc-quicquam-aliud quod ipsiús est. The sum of the 6 last com╌mand╌mentss, is, to Love our Neigh╌bour, as our selves, Mat. 22.39.40. Summa sex posteriorum, est ut diligamus proximum nostrum, sicut nos metipsos, Mat. 39.40.  
Two SACRAMENTS of the New Tes╌ta╌ment, BAPTISM, and the LORD-SUPPER. DUO SACRAMENTA novi Testamenti, BAPTISMUS, & Coena DOMINI. A Sá╌cra╌ment is An Ho╌ly Or╌di╌nance in╌sti╌túted by Christ, where╌in by sen╌sible signs, Christ, and the bé╌ne╌fitss of the new-Co╌ve╌nant, are re╌pre╌sent╌ed, séal╌ed, and ap╌pli╌ed to-be╌lieu╌ers, Gen. 17.7.10. 1 Cor. 11.23.26. Sacraméntum est Sácrum-institútum Christi, inquo, per-signa-sensibus-óbvia, Christus, & benefìcia foederis-novi, exhibéntur, obsignántur, & applicantúr fidélibus, Gen. 17.7, 10. 1 Cor. 11.23, 26. 1. Báp╌tism is a Sá╌cra╌ment, where in, the wash╌ing with wâ╌ter, in the name of the Fa╌ther, and of the Son, and of the Holy-Ghôst (Mat. 28.19) doth síg╌ni╌fy, and seal our in╌gráft╌ing in╌to Christ, and par╌ta╌king of the bê╌ne╌fitss of the Có╌ve╌nant of-graçe, and our en╌gáge╌ment to be the Lords, Rom. 6.4. Gal. 3.27. 1. Baptìsmus est Sacraméntum, inquo, lauácrum per-aquam, innomine Patris, & Fílii, & spìritus-sancti (Mat. 28.19.) significat, & obsignat insitiónem-nostram in Christum, participatiónemque beneficiórum foederis-gratúiti, sponsionèmque nostram, quâ dómino nostra damus nomina, Rom. 6.4. Gal. 3.27. 2. The Lords-sup╌per is a Sá╌cra╌ment, where╌in by giu╌ing, and re╌çèiu╌ing bread, and wine, ac╌cord╌ing to Christ's ap╌point╌ment, his death is-shew╌ed-fôrth: and the wor╌thy re╌çèiu╌erss, are, (not af╌ter a cór╌po╌ral, and car╌nal man╌ner, but by faith) made par╌tá╌kerss of his bo╌dy, and blood, with âll his bé╌ne╌fitss, totheir spi╌ri╌tu╌al nou╌rish╌ment, and grôwth in graçe. 1 Cor. 11.23. to 30. and 1 Cor. 10.16. Mat. 26.26, 27, 28. 2. Coena Dómini est Sacraméntum, inquo, per-panem, & vinum, datum, & acceptum, ex-institúto-Christi, mors-ejus annunciátur: & qui-hanc-coenam-digne-partîcìpant, (non corpóreo, & carnáli-modo, sed fide) fiunt partícipes córporis & sánguinis-Christi, unà-cum-ómnibus-benefìciis-ejus, in-illorum spirituále-nutriméntum, & profectum in-grátiâ. 1 Cor. 11.23. ad 30. & 1 Cor. 10.16.

RE╌sipisçéntia advitam est grátia-saluîfica, Act. 11.18. quâ, peccátor, e-vero peccáti-sui sensu, Act. 2.37, 38. ac apprehensióne diuìnae in-Christo misericórdiae, Joel 2.12. Jer. 3.22. dolens, Jer. 31.18, 19, ac perósus peccátum-suum, Ezek. 36.31. abillo ad-deum conuértitur, cum-pleno-propósito, & conátu novae-obediéntiae, 2 Cor. 7.11. Isa. 1.16, 17.  
Prai╌er. Orátio. PRai╌er is an of╌fer╌ing up of our de╌si╌reses to God, for things a╌gree╌able to his will, in the name of Christ, with con╌fes╌si╌on of our sins, and thank╌ful ac╌knôw╌ledg╌ment of his mer╌çieses.
