they_o have_v submit_v in_o a_o perfect_a obedience_n to_o beauty_n sovereign_a power_n and_o wife_n government_n over_o their_o husband_n indeed_o for_o the_o protestant_a clergy_n they_o must_v be_v

now_o a_o day_n turn_v their_o silly_a husband_n land_n and_o wood_n into_o rich_a gown_n and_o fine_a coach_n it_o be_v the_o saying_n of_o a_o great_a roman_a who_o i_o fancy_v marry_v a_o kind_n of_o a_o english_a humour_a wife_n that_o the_o woman_n rich_a gown_n destroy_v more_o man_n than_o all_o the_o enemy_n arrow_n and_o now_o reader_n i_o be_o sure_a you_o must_v be_v tire_v as_o well_o as_o i_o be_o of_o this_o subject_a of_o woman_n power_n though_o many_o man_n be_v not_o of_o their_o subjection_n to_o it_o and_o therefore_o i_o will_v now_o take_v leave_n of_o these_o

issue_v of_o their_o dream_n my_o design_n be_v only_o to_o write_v of_o not_o to_o dwell_v on_o this_o subject_a and_o perhaps_o i_o have_v already_o not_o only_o write_v more_o on_o it_o than_o i_o shall_v but_o sharp_a of_o it_o than_o i_o ought_v for_o consider_v how_o general_o as_o well_o as_o powerful_o woman_n now_o wear_v the_o breeches_n it_o be_v dangerous_a provoke_v they_o especial_o have_v now_o in_o my_o mind_n the_o say_n of_o a_o great_a philosopher_n those_o that_o consider_v little_a as_o most_o woman_n do_v be_v apt_a to_o be_v angry_a soon_o and_o sure_a if_o wise_a solomon_n in_o his_o day_n when_o certain_o the_o woman_n do_v not_o then_o pretend_v to_o half_a the_o power_n they_o now_o usurp_v can_v prefer_v dwell_v in_o a_o wilderness_n before_o live_v with_o a_o angry_a woman_n how_o cautious_a nay_o fearful_a aught_o the_o writer_n of_o this_o subject_n to_o be_v in_o offend_v they_o when_o their_o anger_n be_v as_o fierce_a as_o their_o power_n be_v great_a and_o in_o some_o woman_n their_o passionate_a revengeful_a humour_n suitable_a to_o both_o therefore_o if_o the_o apostle_n think_v he_o have_v good_a reason_n to_o pray_v to_o be_v deliver_v from_o unreasonable_a man_n sure_a man_n may_v also_o pray_v to_o be_v deliver_v from_o unreasonable_a woman_n and_o doubtless_o as_o it_o suit_v well_o with_o all_o the_o measure_n of_o true_a reason_n and_o good_a policy_n that_o those_o who_o command_v aught_o to_o be_v wise_a than_o they_o who_o be_v to_o obey_v and_o therefore_o woman_n ought_v not_o to_o use_v a_o sovereignty_n over_o man_n action_n whilst_o they_o be_v subject_n to_o their_o own_o passion_n and_o sure_o none_o can_v deny_v this_o truth_n that_o she_o who_o can_v rule_v herself_o be_v very_o unfit_a to_o govern_v another_o but_o it_o be_v full_a time_n for_o i_o to_o begin_v to_o relinquish_v the_o argument_n of_o this_o dangerous_a subject_n have_v spend_v time_n enough_o in_o dabble_v my_o pen_n on_o the_o

a_o unruly_a torrent_n it_o run_v so_o violent_a that_o i_o be_o afraid_a instead_o of_o make_v it_o my_o business_n to_o dissuade_v you_o against_o it_o i_o fancy_v my_o secure_a way_n to_o defend_v

of_o danger_n a_o well_o make_v retreat_n be_v as_o commendable_a as_o a_o great_a victory_n obtain_v and_o deserve_v to_o be_v crown_v with_o laurel_n as_o well_o as_o with_o the_o trophy_n of_o a_o

when_o one_o die_v the_o other_o but_o high_a and_o proud_a vain_a thought_n whilst_o her_o beauty_n live_v and_o sad_a fretting_n and_o discontent_n when_o she_o find_v it_o die_v for_o usual_o as_o the_o mistress_n beauty_n leave_v she_o so_o her_o lover_n love_n leave_v he_o for_o effect_n will_v follow_v their_o cause_n and_o though_o many_o of_o the_o vain_a modish_a lady_n be_v guilty_a of_o
