of_o one_o vice_n but_o the_o fruitful_a parent_n of_o many_o if_o not_o most_o now_o remember_v this_o that_o though_o it_o be_v possible_a that_o a_o woman_n may_v be_v virtuous_a and_o not_o discreet_a in_o some_o case_n yet_o it_o be_v impossible_a in_o any_o case_n that_o a_o woman_n can_v be_v indiscreet_a by_o be_v virtuous_a since_o discretion_n be_v a_o part_n of_o virtue_n i_o shall_v not_o here_o give_v it_o as_o a_o general_a rule_n without_o any_o exception_n that_o a_o virtuous_a woman_n must_v still_o make_v a_o fond_a wife_n for_o virtue_n be_v still_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n but_o a_o husband_n be_v often_o the_o gift_n of_o a_o father_n and_o sometime_o force_v by_o he_o and_o not_o choose_v by_o she_o and_o i_o will_v appeal_v to_o all_o man_n and_o womenkind_n if_o this_o be_v not_o a_o great_a and_o real_a truth_n that_o a_o wife_n be_v like_n and_o love_v a_o husband_n must_v depend_v sole_o upon_o her_o own_o free_a choice_n and_o not_o upon_o her_o father_n will_n she_o may_v indeed_o obey_v what_o please_v he_o but_o she_o can_v love_v but_o what_o please_v herself_o love_n be_v to_o be_v lead_v not_o draw_v virtue_n may_v make_v she_o a_o good_a wife_n but_o love_n can_v only_o make_v she_o a_o fond_a one_o and_o content_v a_o happy_a one_o now_o though_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o natural_a heat_n still_o work_v strong_a in_o all_o young_a woman_n temper_n yet_o it_o be_v far_o from_o be_v certain_a that_o woman_n love_n to_o their_o husband_n do_v still_o work_v strong_a in_o all_o young_a wife_n mind_n for_o though_o a_o brisk_a heat_n still_o wait_v on_o a_o woman_n constitution_n whilst_o she_o be_v a_o young_a woman_n yet_o a_o brisk_a love_n to_o a_o husband_n do_v not_o still_o attend_v a_o woman_n inclination_n whilst_o she_o be_v a_o young_a wife_n and_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o be_v plain_a because_o often_o a_o woman_n love_n and_o like_n in_o the_o choice_n of_o a_o husband_n only_a spring_n from_o and_o be_v but_o the_o bare_a issue_n of_o she_o then_o first_o fancy_n which_o perhaps_o have_v not_o the_o least_o mixture_n of_o good_a reason_n or_o true_a consideration_n in_o its_o composure_n but_o be_v mere_o to_o gratify_v her_o passionate_a amorous_a inclination_n and_o such_o a_o kind_n of_o love_n or_o rather_o frenzy_n be_v usual_o but_o like_o a_o fire_n of_o straw_n which_o though_o it_o light_v quick_a and_o burn_v fierce_a yet_o it_o consume_v soon_o and_o this_o cause_v her_o love-flame_n to_o last_v no_o long_o than_o her_o love-fancy_n which_o be_v usual_o but_o of_o a_o short_a duration_n as_o well_o of_o a_o fickle_a composition_n but_o the_o natural_a temper_n of_o a_o young_a healthful_a woman_n constitution_n its_o operation_n may_v be_v of_o long_a continuance_n and_o must_v last_v as_o long_o as_o her_o youthful_a health_n do_v whereas_o the_o fickle_a love_n to_o the_o husband_n of_o her_o mere_a fancy_n may_v possible_o not_o last_v so_o long_o as_o her_o youth_n or_o health_n either_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o many_o of_o the_o hot_a fiery_a venus-brood_n of_o young_a wife_n love_v their_o husband_n more_o for_o the_o man_n sake_n than_o the_o man_n for_o the_o husband_n sake_n for_o the_o man_n part_n often_o create_v pleasure_n but_o the_o husband_n part_n often_o occasion_n trouble_v which_o make_v many_o of_o the_o young_a mettle_n sort_n of_o wife_n to_o like_v well_o enough_o couple_v with_o their_o husband_n by_o night_n who_o can_v with_o gusto_n relish_v their_o single_a company_n by_o day_n for_o they_o can_v then_o entertain_v themselves_o with_o sweet_a variety_n which_o plain_o demonstrate_v what_o kind_n of_o divertisement_n such_o sort_n of_o wife_n love_n to_o their_o husband_n aim_n at_o and_o be_v delight_v in_o i_o shall_v not_o here_o venture_v to_o launch_v my_o discourse_n into_o the_o vast_a ocean_n of_o reason_n and_o pretence_n that_o there_o happen_v in_o husband_n love_v or_o hate_v their_o wife_n nor_o shall_v i_o here_o pretend_v in_o the_o least_o to_o mark_v out_o the_o just_a bound_n and_o true_a measure_n that_o husband_n ought_v to_o use_v in_o the_o trust_v or_o mistrust_v their_o wife_n carriage_n in_o the_o management_n of_o their_o chastity_n only_o thus_o much_o i_o may_v safe_o write_v that_o there_o must_v be_v great_a care_n take_v in_o raise_v or_o fall_v this_o spring_n that_o must_v turn_v this_o engine_n for_o over-liberty_n or_o over-watchfulness_n and_o restraint_n of_o husband_n to_o wife_n be_v of_o such_o dangerous_a

wise_a husband_n ought_v to_o observe_v a_o moderate_a care_n between_o both_o these_o extremity_n which_o be_v the_o most_o discreet_a and_o secure_a way_n and_o doubtless_o a_o politic_a husband_n ought_v so_o wary_o and_o prudent_o to_o steer_v his_o course_n and_o sober_o and_o careful_o to_o manage_v his_o carriage_n towards_o his_o wife_n as_o to_o avoid_v show_v too_o great_a a_o

what_o he_o will_v not_o be_v but_o it_o be_v more_o than_o time_n to_o beg_v your_o pardon_n for_o have_v lead_v your_o thought_n as_o far_o as_o italy_n the_o garden_n of_o the_o world_n only_o to_o

they_o that_o if_o they_o be_v in_o the_o happy_a state_n of_o freedom_n not_o to_o yoke_v their_o liberty_n in_o marriage_n for_o mere_a beauty_n or_o bare_a money_n but_o chief_o for_o virtue_n

as_o marriage_n and_o almost_o nature_n itself_o witness_n adam_n who_o live_v in_o a_o continue_a innocency_n and_o felicity_n whilst_o he_o remain_v in_o the_o paradise_n of_o a_o single_a life_n but_o he_o be_v no_o soon_o marry_v to_o eve_n but_o he_o be_v cast_v out_o of_o both_o and_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a let_v your_o love_n range_v over_o court_n town_n and_o country_n nay_o ramble_v over_o the_o whole_a world_n you_o can_v never_o choose_v a_o wife_n that_o be_v not_o her_o daughter_n and_o common_a experience_n tell_v we_o that_o there_o be_v few_o daughter_n that_o

many_o husband_n may_v true_o call_v in_o the_o apostle_n phrase_n though_o speak_v in_o another_o and_o more_o divine_a sense_n that_o labour_n of_o love_n i_o hope_v it_o will_v not_o appear_v a_o

to_o wonder_v at_o it_o be_v but_o natural_a for_o effect_n to_o follow_v their_o cause_n among_o all_o the_o great_a and_o extravagant_a folly_n that_o be_v use_v in_o the_o inequality_n of_o

to_o she_o like_o a_o march_n sun_n which_o all_o the_o great_a physician_n concur_v in_o opinion_n to_o be_v very_o unhealthful_a as_o have_v only_a strength_n to_o exhale_v humour_n but_o want_v

to_o cuckold_v he_o for_o it_o be_v impossible_a there_o can_v be_v a_o spark_n of_o love_n or_o like_v in_o the_o case_n and_o he_o do_v believe_v that_o this_o wife_n will_v not_o only_o be_v a_o

custom_n of_o the_o country_n be_v so_o civil_a as_o to_o give_v he_o the_o title_n during_o his_o life_n and_o now_o i_o have_v give_v you_o my_o opinion_n and_o tell_v you_o the_o usual_a fate_n that_o attend_v old_a man_n marry_v young_a woman_n next_o come_v that_o of_o young_a woman_n marry_v old_a man_n and_o though_o they_o appear_v both_o alike_o foolish_a yet_o there_o be_v great_a difference_n in_o their_o folly_n for_o as_o by_o this_o sort_n of_o match_n old_a man_n glut_v themselves_o with_o much_o more_o of_o the_o woman_n than_o their_o age_n want_v so_o young_a wife_n if_o virtuous_a stint_v themselves_o with_o much_o less_o of_o the_o husband_n than_o their_o youth_n needs_o and_o beside_o though_o marriage_n have_v the_o power_n tounite_v two_o body_n into_o one_o flesh_n yet_o it_o want_v that_o of_o unite_n the_o two_o flesh_n into_o one_o temper_n or_o constitution_n for_o a_o young_a wife_n that_o be_v in_o the_o spring_n of_o her_o age_n be_v like_o the_o sun_n in_o the_o spring_n of_o the_o year_n it_o not_o only_o get_v the_o ascendant_n every_o day_n high_o and_o high_o but_o grow_v every_o day_n more_o strong_a and_o vigorous_a but_o a_o old_a husband_n be_v like_o autumn_n who_o strength_n go_v only_o downward_o therefore_o i_o fancy_v a_o old_a man_n marry_v a_o handsome_a young_a lady_n have_v nothing_o to_o plead_v but_o guilty_a but_o a_o young_a lady_n for_o marry_v a_o old_a man_n may_v have_v some_o colourable_a excuse_n to_o moderate_v the_o folly_n and_o lessen_v the_o shame_n of_o such_o a_o unequal_a match_n for_o
