and_o a_o holy_a kind_n of_o life_n but_o because_o partly_o through_o alliance_n and_o partly_o through_o care_n of_o bring_v up_o child_n it_o be_v a_o state_n full_a of_o trouble_n and_o carefulness_n this_o necessity_n and_o as_o it_o be_v bondage_n he_o escape_v that_o abstayn_v from_o marriage_n better_a be_v it_o therefore_o to_o embrace_v this_o liberty_n if_o it_o be_v either_o
