Y Children dear, a legacy,
 * with you I now do leave:

Pray read it o'er. and you will soon,
 * my purposes perceive:

First to your God your duty shew,
 * and live up to his laws:

Then comfort you'll heraster take,
 * and vindicate his cause.

Next give all honour that is is due,
 * unto your mother dear;

Such will be happy you will find,
 * while they do tarry here:

Love to your brethren God commands,
 * that you will also shew;

You then shall ever live in peace,
 * in joy and honour too.

Pray love your neighbour as yourself,
 * behave to them most just:

In all your thoughts, words and works,
 * then you in God may trust:

When he'll preserve you in your steps,
 * that you shall never fall:

He will always be your sure friend,
 * your God, your guide and all.
