any_o force_n strength_n and_o power_n we_o call_v always_o the_o male_n and_o the_o other_o more_o weak_a and_o inferior_n we_o call_v female_n for_o further_a confirmation_n of_o which_o thing_n we_o may_v read_v in_o many_o history_n as_o well_o greek_n as_o latin_a sacred_a as_o profane_v that_o the_o virtuous_a woman_n do_v always_o in_o acknowledge_v their_o obeisance_n call_v their_o

abraham_n and_o call_v he_o lord_n and_o master_n as_o i_o say_v before_o and_o further_o if_o we_o will_v be_v curious_a to_o search_v into_o the_o secret_n of_o the_o ancient_a history_n we_o shall_v find_v more_o strange_a thing_n and_o yet_o true_a also_o that_o be_v that_o in_o the_o old_a time_n the_o husband_n have_v power_n over_o their_o wife_n and_o child_n as_o well_o for_o

and_o if_o you_o find_v in_o any_o place_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n that_o our_o lord_n god_n do_v any_o thing_n abase_v the_o woman_n or_o make_v her_o inferior_a to_o her_o husband_n you_o
