Remember thy bread to bake it well, for he will not be kept sound that eateth his bread as dough. 4. Thon shalt not indulge sorrow or borrow anxiety in vain. 5. Six days tbou sbalt wash and keep thyself clean, and the seventh day thou shalt take a great bath, thou and thy son, thy daughter and thy maid servant, and thy stranger that is within thy gates.
