now_o adays_o as_o husband_n and_o wife_n love_n be_v but_o of_o the_o same_o nature_n of_o that_o of_o great_a sovereign_a prince_n who_o love_n be_v but_o mere_a interest_n and_o a_o husband_n death_n to_o many_o of_o our_o wife_n be_v become_v as_o repentance_n for_o sin_n which_o can_v come_v so_o soon_o or_o late_a but_o it_o still_o bring_v comfort_n with_o it_o and_o now_o lest_o you_o may_v take_v my_o speak_n against_o widow_n marry_v to_o be_v but_o a_o kind_n of_o railly_v discourse_n fit_v only_o to_o entertain_v but_o not_o to_o convince_v and_o that_o my_o reason_n against_o

that_o seem_v not_o to_o favour_v widow_n marry_v but_o rather_o the_o contrary_a to_o continue_v as_o they_o be_v and_o for_o their_o encouragement_n to_o it_o propound_v to_o they_o great_a

which_o be_v a_o privilege_n woman_n have_v by_o live_a widow_n under_o the_o mosaic_a law_n and_o which_o will_v not_o have_v it_o seem_v be_v grant_v have_v she_o be_v make_v unclean_a by_o a_o
