A19453	The court of good counsell VVherein is set downe the true rules, how a man should choose a good wife from a bad, and a woman a good husband from a bad. Wherein is also expressed, the great care that parents should haue, for the bestowing of their children in mariage: and likewise how children ought to behaue themselues towardes their parents: and how maisters ought to gouerne their seruants, and how seruants ought to be obedient towards their maisters. Set forth as a patterne, for all people to learne wit by: published by one that hath dearely bought it by experience.	Guazzo, Stefano, 1530-1593.

either_o lament_v too_o soon_o or_o repent_v too_o late_o many_o be_v the_o occastion_n that_o make_v marriage_n to_o have_v a_o unhappy_a success_n by_o which_o good_a house_n and_o great_a kindred_n

from_o the_o trade_n of_o life_n the_o child_n be_v set_v too_o and_o therefore_o i_o say_v that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o the_o father_n to_o know_v whereunto_o his_o child_n be_v not_o

without_o take_v any_o care_n to_o set_v he_o to_o master_n which_o may_v instruct_v he_o in_o learning_n or_o to_o the_o court_n or_o to_o those_o profession_n whereunto_o his_o mind_n be_v most_o
