The other day I saw on the back of a pickup "Believe on the Lord Jesus and thou shalt be saved."
At the time I wondered what is a "thou" and what is it saved for or from. Maybe someone with a large vocabulary can help here.

It is the subject form of thee.

I would not buy something that runs on any kind of primer given the possibility of primer shortages and even regulations. In fact, why not buy a flintlock? Really. Rocks aren't going away anytime soon.

Specifically it is the old familiar form of the second person pronoun, you being the formal form. German has Du and Sie, Spanish has tu and usted, French has tu and vous. English used to have thou and you.
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery. Hit the target, all else is twaddle!
