and wantonnesse the load-stone to ruth and ruine Wantonnesse maketh a woman couet beyond her power to act beyond her nature and to die before her time Sensuall and wanton vice hath euer these three companions First blindnesse of vnderstanding secondly hardnesse of heart and lastly want of Grace and perfection Wantonnesse is inseparably accompanied with the troubling of order with impudency sloth and dissolutenesse Adultery desireth not procreation but onely pleasure Wantonnesse is a strong tower of mischiefe and hath in it many keepers and many defenders as Needinesse Anger Palenesse Discord Loue and Longing Euery good woman makes not for euery man a good wife no more than one dish of meat can please all stomackes but euery euill woman makes an absolute ill wife as a drop of Coloquintida marres the whole pot of pottage Wanton dwarfe women or foolish ones are the worst to make wiues of for the first brings forth but a race of P●…ies and for the latter there is nothing so fulsome as a she-foole Wantonnesse is attended on by riot and they two impaire health consume wealth and transforme a woman to a beast Wantonnesse is a sin of no single rank No ordinary station that neuer walkes vnattended with a traine of misdemeanors at the heeles Corrupt company is more infections than corrupt aire therefore let women be aduised in their choise for that text of thy selfe that could neuer bee expounded thy companion shall as thy commentarie lay open to the world for it is seene by experience that if those which are neither good nor euill accompany with those that are good they are transformed into their vertue If those that are neither good nor euill consort with those that are euill they are incorporated to their vice If the good companie with the good both are made the better if the euill with the euill both the worse for such as the companie is such is the condition There be foure vices a wanton woman is euer most troubled with sloathfulnesse carelesnes vaine curiositie and nicenesse Hate and Disdain shines in a wantons eyes Deceit and Treason in their bosome lies Th' are mad that thinke by any meanes to stay ●… a wantons mind that is disposd to stray Such is the crueltie of women kind when they haue shaken off the shamefac'st band with which wise nature did them strongly bind t' obey the hests of mans well ruling hand that then all rule reason they withstand to purchase a licentious libertie But vertuous women wisely vnderstand that they were borne to Humilitie vnlesse the Heauens them lift to lawfull Soueraigntie 'T is certaine that the wanton woman neuer Loues Beautie in her sexe but Enuie euer There cannot be a greater clog to man than to be troubled with a wanton woman 'T is euermore obseru'd ' mongst men that be she Base or Hie A wanton eye doth guide her wit and not her wit her Eye Loose women doe repine their sinnes to heare and folly flings if counsail touch thē neare The foolish and the wanton women vse T' obey them most who doth them most abuse A witlesse foole wanton we may guesse that leaues the more takes her to the lesse When wantons finely sooth their owne desires their best cōceits do proue the greatest liers Liue within Compasse in Temperance ABuse not thy body in thy youth by Surfet Riot or any other distemper through an ouer-weening abilitie of strength for youth and Nature passe ouer many Infirmities that are growing till their age Liue temperately and vertuously that thou mayst dye patiently for who liues most honestly will dye most willingly and for thy long dayes and better health on earth afflict not thy body with too much vnnecessary Physicke but furnish thy minde in time of plentie to lay vp for it selfe and others in the time of want for surely her end shall be easie and happie that death finde with a weake body but a strong Soule Grieue not to groane vnder the hand of sicknesse for as sometimes it purgeth the body from intemperate humors so doth it oftentimes the Soule from more dangerous securitie and the rather since there is no perfect health in this world but a newtralitie betweene sicknesse and health The eyes are the instruments of lust therefore make a couenant with them that they betray not thy heart to vanitie Suffer with those that suffer be crucified with those that are crucified so shalt thou be glorified with those that are glorified True grace and Temperance doe not lift vp but humble a good woman therefore she is not yet partaker of true grace which doth not walke in humilitie of heart The streames of Gods grace doe flow downwards not vpwards God creates of nothing and he repaires of nothing that therefore thou maist bée partaker of the Regeneration and Reparation be nothing in thine owne eyes that is attribute nothing to thy selfe arrogate nothing to thy selfe Women are weake and fraile but iudge none frailer than thy selfe to be inferiour to all hurts none to be aboue any offends many Temperance is an enemy to lust and last is an euer-waiting seruant to the pleasures of high bloods Temperance calleth a womun backe from all grosse affects and carnall appetites and lets her neither exceed in foolish reioycing nor in vngodly sorrowing Shee is firmely to be accounted temperate which from the ground of reason can gouerne and bridle the vice of sensualitie and all other grosse affections of the minde and passions Temperance is the true Peace-maker in all the tumults betweene reason and passion When the vntamed passions of a woman haue their full careere and are neither ouer-ruled with Temperance nor discretion then is the soule lost and forsaken or at least deformed and miserable and the more delicately the body is handled the more stubbornly it wrastleth against the minde for the heauie burthen of the body is onely the oppresson of the soule Shee cannot commend Temperance that imagineth the best felicitie to consist in pleasure O it is Temperance with his golden squire Between our passions measures out a mean Neither to melt in pleasures hot desire Nor fry in heartlesse griefe dolefull teen Thrice happie shee that stayes them both betweene O in what safetie Temperance doth rest When it finds harbor in a modest brest Of all Gods workes which doe this world adorne There 's none more faire more sweet or excellent Then womans body both for power and forme Whilst it is kept in temperate gouernment 'T is harder for to learne faire continence In ioyous pleasure than in grieuous paine For sweetnes doth allure the weaker sense So strongly that vnneath it can refraine From that which feeble nature couers fain But griefe and wrath that be her enemies And foes of life shee better can restraine Yet vertue vaunts in both their victories Let Wolues and Beasts be cruell in their kinds But women meeke and of faire temperate mindes Though men mindes can couer with bold sterne lookes Pale
