1._o the_o weakness_n and_o infirmity_n of_o that_o sex_n not_o able_a without_o much_o danger_n and_o trouble_n to_o endure_v so_o long_o a_o journey_n 2._o the_o danger_n of_o their_o chastity_n

when_o all_o these_o thing_n be_v so_o severe_o and_o strict_o exact_v much_o more_o in_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o gospel_n christ_n himself_o here_o lose_v the_o strictness_n even_o of_o the_o
