T pleaed God the Father, Son, and Holy Ghot, for the manifetation of the glory of his eternal power, widom, and goodnes , in the beginning, to create, or make of nothing, the World, and all things therein, whether viible or inviible, in the pace of ix days, and all very good.

After God had made all other Creatures, he created Man, male and female, with reaonable and immortal ouls, indued with knowledge, righteounes, and true holines, after his own Image , having the Law of God written in their hearts , and power to fulfill it : and yet under a poibility of trangreing, being left to the Liberty of their own will, which was ubject unto change. Beide this law written in their hearts, they received a command, not to eat of the tree of the Knowledge of good and evil, which whiles they kept, they were happy in their Communion with God, and had Dominion over the creatures.
