A. First, I learn to believe in God the Father, Who hath made me and all the World.
Secondly, In God the Son, who hath redeemed me, and all Mankind.
Thirdly, In God the Holy Ghost, who sanctifieth me, and all the
Elect People of God.
Q. You said that your God-Fathers and God-Mothers did promise for you, that you should keep God's Commandments. Tell me how many there be?
A. Ten.
Q. Which be they?
A. The same which God spake in the twentieth Chapter of Exodus, saying, I am the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the Land of Egypt, out of the House of Bondage.
I. Thou shalt have none other Gods but Me.
II. Thou shalt not make to thyself any graven Image, nor the Likeness of any Thing, that is in Heaven above, or in the Earth beneath, or in the Water under the Earth. Thou shalt not bow down to them, nor worship them; for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, and visit the Sins of the Fathers upon the Children unto the third and fourth Generation of them that hate me; and shew Mercy unto Thousands of them that love me, and keep my Commandments.
III. Thou shalt not take the Name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his Name in vain.
