That not only by cursing, or forswearing, but also bya rash swearing wee shoulde not vse his name despitefully or vnreuerently: neither shuld by silence or conniuence bee partakers of these horrible sinnes in others: But that weeb vse the sacred and holie name of God euer with great deuotion and reuerence: that he may bec worshipped and honoured by vs with a true and stedfastd confession, ande inuocation of his name, & lastly in al our woords and actions whatsoeuer.f
