therefore_o the_o law_n must_v have_v adjoin_v to_o it_o moderation_n which_o will_v say_v thus_o thou_o have_v do_v well_o to_o ordain_v such_o and_o such_o law_n and_o they_o must_v be_v observe_v

object_v the_o history_n of_o the_o amazon_n great_o extol_v of_o the_o gréeke_n writer_n who_o be_v report_v to_o have_v be_v great_a ruler_n and_o warrior_n but_o i_o think_v it_o but_o a_o ●●ble_a that_o be_v tell_v of_o they_o and_o where_o the_o aethiopian_n those_o woman_n to_o be_v king_n &_o prince_n candace_n as_o we_o read_v of_o candace_n queen_n of_o aethiopia_n in_o the_o act_n they_o do_v it_o after_o their_o peculiar_n manner_n as_o many_o time_n foolish_a man_n be_v make_v prince_n and_o ruler_n it_o be_v never_o permit_v by_o god_n ordinance_n that_o the_o wife_n shall_v

who_o devise_n all_o thing_n must_v be_v order_v and_o although_o a_o woman_n yet_o be_v choose_v on_o this_o wise_a to_o sit_v in_o government_n yet_o this_o confirm_v not_o the_o government_n of_o woman_n over_o their_o husband_n for_o the_o text_n be_v clear_a thou_o shall_v be_v under_o the_o obeisance_n of_o thy_o husband_n and_o he_o shall_v have_v the_o rule_n of_o thou_o a_o woman_n be_v create_v to_o her_o use_n namely_o with_o wisdom_n and_o discretion_n to_o bring_v up_o her_o child_n for_o every_o one_o in_o the_o thing_n whereto_o they_o be_v ordain_v be_v best_o occupy_v a_o woman_n shall_v do_v more_o in_o the_o gripe_n of_o her_o child_n with_o the_o least_o finger_n than_o a_o man_n with_o both_o his_o hand_n therefore_o let_v every_o one_o abide_v in_o that_o business_n and_o work_n whereunto_o god_n have_v call_v and_o ordain_v they_o the_o conclusion_n of_o this_o place_n therefore_o be_v amongst_o the_o diverse_a impediment_n of_o that_o rest_n and_o

very_a noble_a man_n be_v seduce_v by_o dalila_n a_o vicious_a woman_n for_o they_o will_v not_o be_v content_v with_o their_o distaff_n and_o wool_n but_o will_v prescribe_v and_o rule_v their_o husband_n in_o thing_n pertain_v to_o the_o common_a weal_n such_o woman_n say_v solomon_n i_o great_o hate_v for_o they_o be_v bitter_a than_o death_n in_o that_o they_o be_v great_a cause_n of_o

be_v a_o great_a vanity_n not_o because_o of_o the_o sex_n and_o kind_n but_o because_o of_o the_o grin_n and_o snare_n therefore_o wise_a man_n according_a to_o god_n word_n shall_v avoid_v the_o
