what_o s._n paul_n write_v in_o the_o five_o to_o the_o eph●sians_n v_o 22._o wife_n submit_v yourselves_o to_o your_o own_o husband_n as_o unto_o the_o lord_n but_o methinks_v mr._n hobbs_n shall_v answer_v to_o this_o that_o this_o be_v only_o a_o positive_a law_n yet_o i_o can_v reply_v to_o that_o that_o it_o be_v universal_a or_o what_o be_v equivalent_a indefinite_a and_o comprehend_v all_o

of_o the_o church_n thus_o the_o apostle_n argue_v from_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n first_o that_o by_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n the_o rest_n of_o the_o body_n submit_v to_o the_o head_n so_o must_v
