may_v live_v quyetlie_o and_o love_o with_o their_o wyve_n and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o joyfullie_o also_o as_o the_o wise_a man_n say_v for_o sure_o he_o have_v obtain_v a_o good_a portion_n who_o have_v a_o wife_n that_o he_o can_v live_v joyfullie_o with_o for_o what_o if_o a_o man_n do_v abound_v in_o wealth_n so_o that_o he_o can_v give_v unto_o himself_o as_o much_o pleasure_n as_o

burden_n unto_o he_o but_o the_o poor_a man_n have_v little_a and_o yet_o live_v friendly_a love_o and_o joyfullie_o with_o his_o wife_n have_v ten_o thousand_o time_n more_o than_o the_o rich_a contentious_a wretch_n his_o heart_n be_v fill_v with_o contentment_n in_o the_o lord_n and_o the_o other_o his_o heart_n full_a of_o wretchedness_n and_o the_o sting_n of_o a_o evil_a conscience_n we_o have_v a_o old_a proverb_n that_o in_o love_n be_v no_o lack_n for_o where_o love_n be_v unite_v with_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n and_o wife_n they_o will_v like_o
