shall not blemish him at all if vertue beares him vp for if themselues if conuerts afterwards their former life destroys not much more their off-spring decked with his proper vertue shines and shall not be eclipsed with the oprobrious liues of his parents and why Non est eius culpa qui nascitur It is answered thus it is not his default that is borne but his that doth beget him the seed it selfe is not reputed euill for nature receiuing hir owne shee bestowes it she frames it next a bodie the seruing members ensue Et inter illas sacri ventris angustias dei manus semper operatur Hence is the flesh wilt thou condemne it now looke at the fleshly meanes Non peccat terra quae confouet non semen quod in sulcis iacitur non humor vel calor quibus temperata frumenta in germen pullulant sed verbigratia fur latro Temper thy iudgement therfore in this behalfe Quia non in seminibus sed in voluntate nascentis causa vitiorum est atque virtutum And if a law were made that such might inherit the vertuous I meane in the one before the vitious other why should not that law be iust the other I call not vniust but yet it is but temporall and within the libertie of Princes iustly to be altered by the times though iustly they cannot stand in one common wealth together for that that is in present beeing bridles now the parent to be father of Legitimation and the other should bridle if it were the sonne to furnish himselfe with vertues least happily his father shuld haue begotten a better sonne abroad than all the world can finde at home I would be loath in mouing a charitable iudgement in the sonne to seeme to giue hope to the father or libertie to offend Godforbid The happiest off-springs they be and nearer vnto hope let all mentake me so that be borne De legitima parentum coniunctione approbata perleges whereof more at large in this treatise for leauing the adulterous bedde or knowledge had without solemnised marriage which also we haue touched in the same that knowledge had in marriage in consanguinitie and affinitie haue been is and wilbe in all christian ages to come reputed for no lesse for sundrie reasons And first because that naturallie a man doth owe a certaine honour reuerence and feare to his parents and therefore vnto others of his kinne which come verie nigh of the same in so much that in old time as Valerius Maximus sheweth it was not lawful for the sonne to bath in one place with his father least he should see him naked Secondlie such persons must needes be conuersant and in companie together if nature therefore abhorred not knowledge in such they should haue too much opportunitie to licentious liuing whose neerenesse remooueth all suspition from the world And behold the heathen Philosopher here Where saith he a man doth loue his kinswoman by nature if there should be put to this the loue of bodily medling there should be too much heat and feruentnesse of loue and too great prouocation to fleshly lust which is contrarie to the chastitie of marriage Thirdly such marriages shall hinder that mutuall loue and friendship that is both profitable and honest to human societie for when a man doth take a wife that is a stranger to him all the kinred of his wife be knit vnto him by a certaine league of friendship and loue as if they were his owne this hath nature ordeined alreadie in blood Hence proceeded the prohibitioÌ„ of the Canons That men and women to whom loue and concord was thought both profitable and honest should be knit together by sundry degrees of kinred and not that one shuld haue many in one sed singulae spargereÌ„tur in singulos the Canons tearme them necessitudines which they would haue dispersed In the treatise of the determinations of the most famous and most excellent vniuersities c. fourth Chap. after the authour whosoeuer he was had cited touching such vnlawfull marriages the doctours of the church of Christ that were of greatest authoritie fame and renowne he descended to others which though not of so great authoritie yet their iudgements for their credit learning and grauitie was receiued worthely amongst whom he affirmed to this effect of an Archbishop in this land viz. being asked by what reason the forbidding we should not marrie in coÌ„sanguinitie nor affinitie had so great strength and power in the church answered The laws and Canons of the church be full of this commandement and there be many decrees of the old fathers also that we should not marrie with any of our blood c. and as for the cause and reason of this commaundement albeit I might say that the simple and plaine reason is to obey the power and authoritie of them to whom Christ said It is not you your selfe that speaketh but the spirit of your father which speaketh in you c. yet for all that by the consideration and marking also of holy scripture I am woont to thinke thus with my selfe amongst the old ancient people of the Iews it was not lawful for any person to marry with any out of his tribe and when I doubted and sought a reason why so the daughters of Zelophehad came to my remembrance c. But in this case Moses gaue an answere to their carnalities That they should not marrie out of their tribe but the goodnesse and perfection of vs that be Christian folke is not on this fashion for seeing our heritage is God of whom it is spoken God is loue and charitie as the Iewes vsed a law agreeable to their heritage so we ought to maintaine a law for ours which is the law of loue and charitie There is light darknesse good and euill there be lawfull and expedient lawfull not expedient nor lawfull nor expedient marriages these be seen in diuers families in outward degrees in nigh kinred with this I commend to the reader the admonition of the English church that is to consider in contracts of matrimonie what is lawfull what honest what expedient Gregor Nazian de bono Coniugij COniugium radix fulcrum nobile vitae Coniugium praestat si sis sine robore vires Sic sumus inter nos auresquÃ¨ manusquÃ¨ pedesquÃ¨ Mutua sic duros emollit cura labores Mutua sic gemina dulcedine gaudia crescunt Quin desiderium concesso limite claudit Coniugium custosquÃ¨ aeternÃ¹m obsignat amores Vt sunt carne simul iuncti sic mente cohaerent Inter sequÃ¨ pijs miscent incendia Flammis Et quia praesidij est rerumquÃ¨ hic maior egestas Foemina virquÃ¨ deo maiori pectore fidunt â§ A Table of the contents of this Booke CHAP.

third affinitie together So it is said to be Primum genus i. The first kind of affinitie Quia primo emanat de consanguinitate vel quiae vna persona mediante contr ahitur Secundum i. The second kind of affinitie Quia secundo loco emanat post primum vel quia duabus personis mediantibus contrahitur Tertium i. the third kind of affinitie Quia in tertio loco vel quia tribus personis mediantihus emanat The effect we haue explaned hereof in these three seueral kindes already briefly they be so called the first of one the second of two the third of three but we prosecute onely the first for the other we haue related them to manifest the better this first as also to giue a light as I haue sayd of the former Canons and otherwise they haue no being here Touching therefore this first kind of affinitie it is to be noted and so it may be gathered by that we haue sayd before viz. It is contracted inter sp onsum consanguineas sponsae and againe inter sponsam consanguineos sponsi as much to say It is contracted this first kind of affinitie reciprocally i. between the husband and consanguines of the wife and Ã¨ conuerso betweene the wife and consanguines of the husband howbeit betweene the consanguines themselues by this marriage there is no affinitie contracted more than was betweene Hobson and Iobson by looking through a hedge when they spyed one another somewhat nearer but Hoc aliquid nihil est i. so far from this attinencie that it hath no consequence at all Hence it is that the father and sonne may contract and consumate marriage with the mother daughter as widdows widdowers do may do their sons and daughters such as be so prouided for their children when they couenant for themselues hence may also two brothers contract and consumate marriage with two sisters the like of the vncle and nephew Many attinencies may hereby be sprung between the same persons this may be seen in children of diuers families that be sons either of them to their mothers to their husbands sons and brothers and vncle and nephew to themselues And thus it falleth out I marrie a wife that hath a sonne that marrieth with my mother tearme me for examples sake Ambrose my wife Mary who had to sonne Theodor who married as I did his with Martha my mother I haue issue Peter he hath issue Iohn these attinencies happen here between Peter and Iohn for first sonnes they be reciprocallie that is to say to their mothers Iohn to Martha mother to Ambrose and Peter to Mary mother to Theodor and so they be sonnes to their husbands Iohn to Theodor Peter to Ambrose brothers to the same i. either to others father Iohn to Ambrose father to Peter Peter to Theodor father to Iohn for so it is in this example Iohn and Ambrose had one mother Martha and Peter and Theod. the same mother Mary hence they be brothers Peter is therefore Iohns brothers sonne and Iohn Peters brothers sonne consequently Iohn shalbe vncle to Peter and Peter vncle to Iohn how they be nephewes it followeth by this Conclude them therefore briefly eache others mothers sonne eache others fathers brother eache others vncle eache others nephew The figure may be formed as followeth in the page next ensuing Peter Marye had T. O. sonne Theodor. who married w t Martha Iohn Martha had T o sonne Ambros. who married w t. Marye The computatioÌ„ it hath of degrees I meane this affinitie it borroweth of Consanguinitie before Non habet suam specialem computationem graduum It hath no computation of it selfe in degrees this we haue sufficiently mentioned in this chapter alreadie only we may describe the figure the better to conceiue it formed First there be placed in the same in the middest foure compasses with seuerall superscriptions viz. In the first the first degree in the second the second degree in the third the third in the fourth the fourth On the right side to these be placed likewise foure compasses written in the first brother in the second brothers sonne in the third brothers nephew in the fourth brothers nephews sonne againe on the same side of these be placed foure other compasses written in the first brothers wife in the second brothers sonnes wife in the third brothers nephewes wife in the fourth brothers nephewes sonnes wife On the left side of the first foure middle coÌ„passes be placed likewise foure other compasses with seuerall superscriptions viz. In the first sister in the second sisters daughter in the third sisters neece in the fourth sisters neeces daughter Likewise on the same side of these be foure other compasses and written in the first Sisters husband in the second sisters daughters husband in the third sisters neeces husband in the fourth sisters neeces daughters husband There be added to these two other compasses on the rightside one on the left side another the rightside compasse conteineth Brothers wiues husband the left Sisters husbands wife In these the doctors agree they be added for ornament and demonstration besides of the not prohibited kindes in affinitie to marrie at this day they are not otherwise of the substance of the figure There be yet obserued two bending lines one beginneth at the compasse of brother and endeth at the compasse of sisters husband wherein is written The first kind of affinitie prohibited at this day to marry The other beginneth at the compasse of sister and endeth at the compasse of brothers wife wherein is written the same This forme was first inuented as also the figures of consanguinitie before by the famous learned doctor Iohan. Andre and autenticall in the canons for after diuers contentions in his time had touching the naturall forme of the figure and the description thereupon of Iohan. de Deo Hispan who seemed by his metrical rules to open thereunto the right vnderstanding indeed howbeit the multitude of the same and obscuritie hee begat in his rules and verses brought forth another effect Attendens ipse Iohan. Andr. For so he writeth of himselfe Antiquorum scripta c. Recounting with the canons the auncient and autenticall writers hee composed it handling therewithall these three points besides amongst the rest viz. The necessitie of it the authoritie the often repetition For the first Probatio ad oculum as much to say as an eie witnesse the necessitie of it appeareth both in the lawes and canons this wee haue touched in the second chapter before For the second the canons we haue cited here alreadie of Isidor and Alexander viz. 35 Q. Cap. 1. 2. vlt. may suffice And for the third that I may vse my learned authors words nomini venit in dubium id satis esse validum satisque famosum quod repitita lectio probat Let this suffice for affinitie the figure whereof ensueth THE CANONICAL FIGVRE OF CONsang Great grandfathers father The same mother iiij
