appoint_v for_o woman_n to_o govern_v over_o man_n next_o of_o course_n follow_v the_o manner_n how_o they_o rule_v and_o that_o we_o have_v a_o account_n of_o in_o few_o word_n in_o the_o 12_o verse_n of_o that_o chapter_n aforemention_v by_o the_o prophet_n o_o my_o people_n say_v the_o lord_n those_z that_o be_v the_o woman_n that_o lead_v you_o cause_n you_o to_o err_v and_o destroy_v the_o way_n of_o thy_o path_n thus_o we_o find_v that_o error_n and_o destruction_n be_v the_o effect_n of_o woman_n roll_a power_n it_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o way_n of_o truth_n for_o it_o cause_v error_n and_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n of_o reason_n i_o can_v say_v of_o common_a practice_n and_o it_o be_v here_o appoint_v to_o woman_n not_o as_o a_o favour_n but_o for_o a_o

i_o be_o sure_a as_o early_o as_o the_o first_o man_n in_o it_o for_o sacred_a writ_n tell_v that_o it_o be_v lay_v as_o a_o load_n on_o the_o first_o woman_n for_o her_o disobedience_n to_o her_o

hinder_v it_o from_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o all_o from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n therefore_o let_v all_o our_o high_a spirit_v govern_v woman_n who_o make_v their_o silly_a husband_n and_o foolish_a gallant_n such_o slave_n to_o their_o power_n because_o admirer_n of_o their_o beauty_n remember_v what_o one_o very_a well_o observe_v that_o the_o day_n of_o the_o date_n of_o woman_n power_n over_o man_n be_v the_o day_n of_o the_o date_n of_o her_o sin_n against_o god_n it_o be_v most_o clear_a and_o plain_a that_o from_o adam_n time_n the_o woman_n ought_v to_o be_v in_o

of_o humanity_n and_o deserve_v to_o loose_v the_o great_a honour_n of_o be_v english_a man_n for_o such_o pettycoat_n man_n ought_v to_o be_v transplant_v into_o the_o suburb_n of_o england_n wales_n

betten_v than_o he_o with_o such_o a_o sort_n of_o female_a gentry_n who_o be_v compose_v of_o such_o unmasculine_a spirit_n real_o when_o i_o reflect_v on_o what_o crowd_n there_o be_v of_o this_o

they_o yet_o after_o all_o it_o be_v a_o very_a great_a pity_n that_o these_o sort_n of_o mistress_n do_v not_o bestow_v on_o these_o kind_n of_o servant_n lace_v to_o their_o coat_n for_o sure_a they_o be_v fool_n enough_o to_o deserve_v it_o and_o i_o see_v no_o reason_n why_o such_o who_o be_v so_o ambitious_a of_o their_o service_n shall_v refuse_v to_o wear_v their_o livery_n and_o be_v out_o of_o countenance_n to_o be_v know_v fool_n by_o their_o coat_n when_o they_o be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o deserve_v that_o name_n by_o their_o action_n solomon_n say_v a_o slothful_a man_n shall_v be_v cover_v with_o rag_n and_o so_o indeed_o ought_v such_o man_n who_o be_v dull_a and_o drowsy_a in_o the_o exercise_n of_o their_o own_o power_n and_o overactive_a in_o their_o obedience_n to_o woman_n for_o which_o they_o well_o deserve_v to_o wear_v the_o colour_n of_o their_o mistress_n sovereignty_n and_o their_o slavery_n on_o the_o ragged_a fool_n coat_n of_o their_o own_o simplicity_n sure_o all_o such_o man_n as_o will_v debase_v themselves_o into_o such_o a_o effeminate_a servitude_n as_o to_o render_v it_o both_o easy_a and_o habitual_a to_o they_o can_v pretend_v in_o the_o least_o to_o possess_v a_o noble_a or_o generous_a spirit_n for_o that_o must_v be_v averse_a to_o it_o since_o it_o make_v a_o man_n not_o any_o unfit_a to_o serve_v his_o king_n and_o country_n the_o duty_n of_o every_o good_a subject_n but_o even_o to_o be_v useful_a to_o himself_o and_o family_n whereas_o if_o young_a man_n study_v noble_a science_n instead_o of_o court_v handsome_a woman_n who_o can_v only_o divert_v their_o time_n probable_o corrupt_v their_o life_n whereas_o the_o practice_n of_o virtue_n and_o the_o study_n of_o man_n and_o business_n with_o other_o useful_a science_n will_v refine_v and_o strengthen_v their_o knowledge_n fortify_v prudence_n in_o their_o action_n kindle_v magnanimity_n in_o their_o heart_n raise_v glorious_a desire_n in_o their_o mind_n and_o so_o polish_v and_o regulate_v all_o the_o weighty_a action_n of_o their_o life_n so_o as_o to_o render_v they_o fit_a to_o serve_v their_o country_n both_o in_o war_n and_o peace_n and_o themselves_o and_o family_n to_o boot_v which_o advantage_n can_v never_o redound_v on_o either_o by_o court_v and_o serve_v beauty_n never_o so_o long_o for_o mere_a beauty_n sake_n and_o i_o wonder_v your_o beauty_n courtier_n do_v not_o observe_v that_o great_a beauty_n seldom_o esteem_v the_o long_a attendance_n or_o great_a service_n of_o their_o adorer_n as_o they_o ought_v because_o they_o value_v more_o their_o own_o beauty_n than_o they_o shall_v which_o make_v it_o common_a for_o such_o woman_n to_o ruin_v their_o lover_n liberty_n to_o proclaim_v their_o own_o sovereignty_n over_o it_o and_o therefore_o sure_o it_o can_v appear_v very_o unreasonable_a that_o such_o man_n as_o will_v make_v themselves_o slave_n to_o woman_n beauty_n shall_v pass_v for_o fool_n in_o sober_a man_n thought_n indeed_o there_o be_v one_o law_n and_o but_o one_o law_n i_o know_v which_o though_o a_o french_a one_o yet_o as_o great_a lover_n as_o our_o english_a lady_n be_v of_o the_o

which_o in_o france_n prohibit_v the_o female_a sex_n from_o wear_v the_o breeches_n and_o reign_v which_o our_o high_a spirit_v govern_v woman_n in_o england_n so_o hate_v the_o name_n of_o as_o there_o be_v a_o report_n they_o be_v about_o call_v a_o parliament_n of_o woman_n to_o vote_v it_o high_a treason_n against_o the_o power_n of_o their_o present_a government_n to_o but_o name_n bring_v that_o law_n into_o england_n but_o as_o good_a fortune_n will_v have_v it_o they_o can_v not_o agree_v among_o themselves_o about_o choose_v a_o speaker_n for_o every_o one_o will_v be_v

at_o the_o high_a rate_n of_o power_n woman_n beauty_n now_o govern_v the_o lady_n have_v no_o cause_n to_o be_v concern_v that_o the_o breeches_n be_v not_o give_v to_o they_o by_o act_n of_o
