father_n for_o we_o be_v teach_v by_o the_o apostle_n peter_n to_o obey_v god_n more_o than_o man_n act._n 5._o 29._o we_o ought_v to_o love_v our_o worldly_a parent_n yet_o we_o must_v not_o offend_v our_o heavenly_a father_n for_o he_o that_o love_v father_n &_o mother_n more_o than_o i_o be_v not_o worthy_a of_o i_o say_v christ_n mat._n 10._o 37._o we_o ought_v to_o fear_v our_o natural_a parent_n that_o have_v government_n of_o our_o body_n yet_o we_o must_v be_v more_o afraid_a of_o our_o celestial_a father_n which_o preserve_v both_o body_n and_o soul_n and_o be_v able_a to_o cast_v they_o into_o hell_n fire_n mat._n 10._o 28._o whereupon_o i_o ground_n my_o argument_n that_o if_o parent_n will_v proffer_n and_o impose_v upon_o their_o child_n such_o a_o match_n as_o tend_v more_o to_o profit_n than_o piety_n more_o to_o content_v their_o greedy_a desire_n for_o lucre_n than_o their_o child_n godly_a choice_n for_o love_n as_o this_o man_n have_v do_v to_o his_o daughter_n neither_o they_o nor_o this_o maid_n ought_v to_o depend_v on_o their_o parent_n in_o this_o point_n what_o great_a occasion_n of_o incontinency_n can_v be_v give_v than_o to_o match_v a_o young_a and_o lusty_a maid_n against_o her_o own_o mind_n with_o a_o infirm_a and_o decrepit_a person_n to_o satisfy_v a_o other_o pleasure_n what_o a_o cross_a contract_n will_v this_o be_v and_o shall_v not_o the_o maid_n who_o have_v make_v a_o fit_a choice_n to_o her_o own_o mind_n marry_v unless_o she_o take_v such_o a_o old_a man_n against_o her_o mind_n what_o say_v you_o shall_v the_o severity_n of_o of_o her_o father_n abridge_v her_o liberty_n or_o deprive_v she_o of_o the_o lawful_a remedy_n nay_o more_o than_o that_o shall_v the_o maid_n increase_v in_o sin_n for_o want_v of_o her_o desire_n because_o her_o father_n will_v not_o yield_v his_o consent_n unless_o it_o be_v to_o her_o dislike_n i_o say_v no._n the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o it_o be_v better_a to_o marry_v than_o burn_v and_o yet_o she_o shall_v keep_v she_o within_o the_o bound_n of_o obedience_n because_o she_o do_v it_o not_o of_o purpose_n in_o contempt_n of_o her_o parent_n but_o in_o regard_n of_o god_n glory_n to_o avoid_v the_o occasion_n of_o evil_a tich_z indeed_o i_o must_v needs_o confess_v that_o to_o match_v a_o young_a maid_n with_o a_o old_a man_n it_o be_v miserable_a nay_o then_o that_o which_o be_v more_o admirable_a some_o man_n that_o have_v live_v single_a above_o sixty_o year_n will_v upon_o a_o little_a fleshly_a fancy_n needs_o to_o the_o world_n yet_o he_o will_v soon_o angle_v for_o a_o frog_n than_o a_o fish_n i_o mean_v he_o will_v soon_o catch_v a_o light_a minion_n than_o couple_n with_o a_o grave_a matron_n and_o as_o the_o world_n do_v wonder_n at_o he_o for_o his_o wantonness_n in_o make_v such_o a_o match_n so_o his_o kindred_n which_o do_v hope_n to_o have_v good_a of_o he_o be_v deceive_v by_o this_o mean_n for_o he_o will_v so_o much_o respect_v the_o trifle_a trick_n of_o his_o cosset_n that_o he_o will_v not_o care_v to_o cast_v off_o the_o try_a love_n of_o his_o kindred_n who_o of_o a_o long_a time_n he_o have_v put_v in_o hope_n of_o some_o great_a promotion_n by_o his_o death_n which_o no_o doubt_n by_o their_o duty_n &_o diligence_n they_o have_v deserve_v and_o at_o last_o do_v recompense_v they_o with_o this_o delusion_n by_o his_o life_n to_o give_v all_o to_o his_o young_a wife_n fie_o upon_o flesh_n that_o rage_v so_o furious_o &_o of_o man_n that_o have_v no_o more_o modesty_n &_o of_o age_n that_o yield_v no_o better_a

not_o sell_v any_o parcel_n of_o their_o possession_n from_o their_o kindred_n ruth_n 4._o then_o with_o what_o conscience_n may_v these_o give_v all_o away_o from_o they_o good_a god_n what_o a_o
