from_o who_o family_n often_o receive_v their_o honour_n and_o inheritance_n for_o in_o the_o choice_n of_o a_o new_a heir_n the_o father_n have_v a_o election_n but_o not_o they_o who_o perhaps_o

marriage_n in_o some_o particular_n the_o most_o essential_a difference_n lie_v in_o two_o point_n a_o multiplicity_n of_o wife_n and_o power_n of_o divorce_n for_o both_o these_o we_o must_v acquiesce_v in_o our_o saviour_n decision_n which_o conclude_v against_o multiplicity_n of_o wife_n and_o limit_n the_o power_n of_o divorce_n the_o jew_n save_v their_o king_n and_o high_a priest_n before_o the_o captivity_n may_v have_v as_o many_o wife_n as_o they_o can_v maintain_v and_o at_o this_o day_n the_o mahomitan_n permit_v polygamy_n the_o jewish_a king_n dignity_n cause_v a_o

in_o the_o same_o matter_n i_o say_v of_o humane_a reason_n take_v the_o jewish_a matrimonial_a custom_n to_o be_v ground_v not_o upon_o divine_a institution_n but_o upon_o resolution_n of_o rabin_n like_o to_o judge_v case_n in_o our_o law_n let_v we_o compare_v monogamy_n or_o single_a marriage_n with_o polygamy_n and_o somewhat_o weigh_v the_o convenience_n on_o either_o side_n polygamy_n be_v say_v to_o be_v little_o less_o than_o necessary_a to_o nation_n desirous_a of_o empire_n as_o be_v the_o jew_n and_o now_o the_o turk_n be_v since_o abundance_n of_o people_n be_v chief_o instrumental_a in_o conquest_n but_o to_o this_o may_v be_v answer_v that_o no_o people_n be_v ever_o more_o ambitious_a of_o ampliate_v their_o limit_n than_o the_o roman_n nor_o more_o desirous_a to_o abound_v in_o people_n then_o they_o as_o appear_v by_o the_o privilege_n of_o jus_fw-la trium_fw-la liberorum_fw-la and_o yet_o they_o never_o admit_v polygamy_n it_o may_v be_v add_v for_o polygamy_n that_o a_o single_a wife_n want_v the_o spur_n to_o virtue_n which_o emulation_n give_v where_o there_o be_v more_o but_o religion_n be_v a_o sufficient_a spur_n to_o virtue_n and_o the_o benefit_n of_o emulation_n may_v arise_v from_o the_o consideration_n of_o other_o man_n virtuous_a wife_n as_o well_o as_o from_o rival_n in_o relation_n to_o the_o husband_n but_o certain_o in_o the_o oeconomical_a way_n a_o multiplicity_n of_o wife_n must_v be_v very_o inconvenient_a as_o cause_v many_o distraction_n and_o altercation_n within_o a_o family_n to_o the_o great_a disturbance_n of_o the_o master_n for_o if_o one_o contentious_a woman_n be_v scarce_o supportable_a how_o must_v it_o be_v where_o there_o be_v many_o and_o with_o power_n almost_o equal_a as_o to_o the_o power_n of_o divorce_n christianity_n do_v not_o allow_v it_o but_o in_o the_o case_n of_o fornication_n for_o impotence_n produce_v a_o nullity_n and_o not_o a_o divorce_n but_o the_o jew_n and_o roman_n also_o before_o they_o be_v christian_n have_v a_o full_a liberty_n to_o divorce_n this_o be_v a_o great_a power_n to_o the_o masculine_a sex_n which_o woman_n will_v ready_o tax_v as_o unjust_a as_o be_v think_v by_o salome_n sister_n to_o herod_n who_o to_o give_v a_o precedent_n for_o equality_n between_o the_o sex_n send_v a_o bill_n of_o divorce_n to_o her_o husband_n a_o thing_n opposite_a to_o the_o jewish_a custom_n for_o liberty_n of_o divorce_n it_o be_v say_v that_o otherwise_o a_o man_n be_v for_o life_n and_o without_o remedy_n confine_v to_o the_o inconvenience_n of_o a_o humorous_a unquiet_a and_o disobedient_a wife_n but_o the_o fault_n be_v our_o own_o for_o marriage_n shall_v never_o be_v without_o full_a consent_n on_o both_o side_n to_o conclude_v our_o levity_n and_o inconstancy_n be_v such_o as_o the_o general_a unhappiness_n will_v be_v much_o great_a if_o every_o man_n may_v be_v divorce_v at_o pleasure_n xv._n the_o next_o part_n of_o a_o family_n that_o offer_v itself_o be_v the_o servant_n and_o of_o a_o great_a family_n for_o those_o that_o be_v little_a deserve_v small_a consideration_n the_o whole_a may_v be_v term_v a_o epitome_n of_o hereditary_a monarchy_n the_o master_n of_o such_o a_o family_n si_fw-la paruis_fw-la componere_fw-la magna_fw-la licet_fw-la if_o we_o may_v compare_v great_a thing_n with_o small_a do_v somewhat_o resemble_v the_o sovereign_a prince_n his_o child_n the_o nobility_n or_o second_o estate_n and_o the_o body_n of_o servant_n bear_v some_o similitude_n to_o the_o commons_o and_o this_o comparison_n may_v the_o better_o be_v admit_v because_o writer_n very_o considerable_a fetch_v their_o chief_a argument_n for_o monarchy_n as_o be_v the_o most_o natural_a and_o ancient_a government_n from_o its_o conformity_n with_o the_o paternal_a which_o always_o suppose_v a_o family_n let_v we_o see_v how_o this_o comparison_n be_v proper_a all_o power_n and_o office_n be_v derive_v from_o the_o sovereign_n in_o a_o state_n and_o so_o be_v all_o from_o the_o master_n in_o a_o family_n the_o protection_n and_o defence_n of_o a_o kingdom_n belong_v only_o to_o the_o king_n and_o so_o of_o a_o family_n to_o the_o master_n all_o the_o people_n pay_v tribute_n to_o the_o sovereign_n and_o all_o work_n of_o servant_n in_o a_o family_n whence_o profit_n may_v arise_v be_v to_o the_o master_n use_n thus_o far_o there_o be_v a_o agreement_n but_o in_o other_o thing_n a_o difference_n in_o monarchy_n every_o subject_a have_v a_o natural_a interest_n in_o his_o prince_n and_o the_o relation_n be_v indissoluble_a but_o in_o a_o family_n servant_n have_v no_o natural_a interest_n in_o their_o master_n and_o the_o relation_n be_v only_o indissoluble_a between_o the_o father_n and_o his_o child_n again_o monarchy_n be_v one_o of_o the_o form_n of_o political_a government_n and_o a_o principal_a end_n of_o all_o such_o government_n be_v the_o whole_a people_n welfare_n whereof_o the_o commons_o make_v the_o great_a part_n whereas_o in_o a_o family_n there_o be_v no_o other_o design_n or_o intention_n then_o profit_n and_o convenience_n of_o the_o master_n and_o his_o servant_n have_v no_o concernment_n of_o their_o own_o in_o such_o thing_n as_o peculiar_o belong_v to_o the_o family_n many_o other_o instance_n of_o difference_n may_v be_v give_v but_o they_o full_o concur_v in_o one_o particular_a more_o which_o be_v this_o that_o neither_o of_o they_o can_v well_o subsist_v without_o due_a subordination_n and_o good_a order_n xvi_o the_o first_o consideration_n belong_v to_o servant_n be_v their_o number_n wherein_o no_o certain_a rule_n can_v be_v give_v for_o respect_n must_v be_v have_v to_o several_a thing_n as_o to_o the_o dignity_n and_o revenue_n of_o the_o master_n his_o number_n of_o child_n etc._n etc._n but_o it_o be_v absolute_o against_o the_o rule_n of_o wisdom_n to_o err_v in_o the_o excess_n better_o it_o be_v to_o have_v too_o few_o than_o too_o many_o as_o well_o in_o respect_n of_o their_o idleness_n which_o be_v to_o be_v shun_v as_o a_o rock_n and_o can_v so_o be_v in_o case_n a_o fit_a number_n be_v exceed_v as_o also_o in_o regard_n of_o increase_a charge_n beyond_o the_o master_n income_n a_o most_o necessary_a thing_n to_o be_v prevent_v for_o what_o be_v or_o can_v be_v more_o uncomfortable_a then_o for_o a_o master_n to_o find_v his_o estate_n in_o a_o continual_a ebb_n or_o diminution_n xvii_o the_o next_o thing_n to_o be_v weigh_v concern_v servant_n in_o general_n be_v their_o condition_n which_o as_o i_o conceive_v may_v better_o be_v express_v by_o the_o negative_a than_o the_o affirmative_a as_o first_o that_o they_o differ_v not_o in_o religion_n from_o their_o master_n for_o whatsoever_o their_o zeal_n may_v be_v otherwise_o it_o can_v be_v excessive_a in_o relation_n to_o a_o master_n who_o they_o think_v not_o capable_a of_o heaven_n and_o eternal_a happiness_n xviii_o that_o they_o be_v not_o much_o addict_v to_o any_o notorious_a vice_n and_o especial_o unto_o excess_n of_o drink_v which_o for_o the_o most_o part_n like_o the_o crocodile_n grow_v as_o long_o as_o it_o live_v with_o the_o person_n and_o be_v every_o day_n more_o incurable_a bring_v with_o it_o many_o inconvenience_n into_o a_o family_n as_o well_o by_o ill_a example_n as_o otherwise_o whereas_o other_o vice_n in_o the_o habit_n of_o they_o be_v not_o so_o frequent_a and_o not_o appear_v so_o often_o in_o public_a minister_v less_o scandal_n xix_o that_o they_o be_v not_o affect_v with_o any_o chronical_a

rigid_a who_o must_v have_v sing_v psalm_n and_o so_o it_o be_v ancient_o in_o the_o jewish_a church_n i_o profess_v not_o to_o know_v any_o pleasure_n exceed_v music_n save_v that_o of_o

towards_o spirituality_n or_o else_o the_o prophet_n elisha_n will_v never_o have_v call_v for_o a_o minstrel_n when_o a_o inspiration_n be_v require_v i_o may_v fear_v i_o have_v be_v too_o tedious_a concern_v this_o recreation_n to_o which_o i_o confess_v myself_o a_o little_a partial_a and_o i_o can_v but_o wonder_v at_o some_o person_n who_o be_v so_o much_o more_o than_o brutish_a as_o they_o have_v a_o total_a aversion_n to_o it_o who_o i_o must_v leave_v in_o their_o misery_n lxxxii_o some_o be_v so_o austere_a and_o rigid_a in_o the_o way_n of_o religion_n as_o they_o will_v admit_v nothing_o of_o pleasure_n far_o than_o refection_n which_o include_v eat_v drink_v and_o sleep_v only_o suppose_v to_o be_v necessary_a recreation_n or_o pastime_n they_o hold_v altogether_o unlawful_a as_o injurious_a to_o better_a employment_n these_o man_n religion_n be_v very_o conformable_a to_o mahometism_n wherein_o all_o professor_n must_v have_v a_o mechanical_a profession_n even_o the_o great_a turk_n himself_o and_o they_o consider_v not_o the_o necessity_n of_o health_n which_o can_v be_v preserve_v with_o a_o continual_a intention_n of_o mind_n a_o bow_n that_o

serious_a thought_n be_v prejudicial_a to_o health_n and_o certain_o at_o such_o time_n entertainment_n of_o some_o levity_n be_v to_o be_v tolerate_v and_o not_o only_o then_o but_o in_o the_o long_a winter_n evening_n a_o season_n unfit_a for_o stir_v business_n so_o as_o for_o the_o master_n and_o better_a sort_n of_o servant_n there_o may_v be_v then_o some_o use_v make_v of_o game_n in_o a_o moderate_a sort_n for_o can_v it_o be_v better_a to_o sit_v by_o the_o fire_n and_o sleep_n or_o for_o a_o man_n to_o rack_v himself_o by_o his_o own_o thought_n then_o to_o entertain_v himself_o by_o innocent_a pastime_n but_o in_o this_o i_o leave_v our_o master_n to_o his_o own_o thought_n lxxxiii_o a_o gentleman_n of_o quality_n who_o i_o consider_v chief_o in_o these_o oeconomical_a note_n live_v in_o the_o country_n can_v hardly_o keep_v himself_o out_o of_o employment_n under_o the_o lieutenancy_n or_o commission_n of_o the_o peace_n and_o this_o may_v contribute_v something_o against_o the_o inconvenience_n of_o solitude_n though_o this_o give_v trouble_n yet_o it_o generate_v a_o acquaintance_n and_o correspondence_n between_o those_o of_o the_o gentry_n and_o may_v also_o yield_v some_o inward_a satisfaction_n to_o a_o well_o dispose_v person_n who_o ever_o desire_v to_o be_v useful_a to_o other_o and_o here_o as_o i_o conceive_v notice_n may_v be_v take_v that_o our_o sovereign_n be_v happy_a beyond_o other_o prince_n for_o he_o be_v very_o much_o serve_v gratis_o in_o matter_n of_o common_a government_n whereas_o other_o be_v enforce_v to_o use_v

for_o it_o be_v fit_a that_o such_o shall_v have_v their_o freedom_n since_o they_o need_v not_o be_v oblige_v to_o any_o rule_n of_o frugality_n and_o i_o may_v say_v it_o be_v for_o the_o honour_n of_o this_o kingdom_n that_o the_o court_n and_o chief_a city_n shall_v be_v frequent_v and_o expense_n in_o bravery_n there_o be_v not_o only_o honourable_a but_o bring_v advantage_n to_o the_o people_n since_o many_o trade_n and_o manufacture_n subsist_v mere_o by_o excess_n of_o that_o nature_n every_o man_n therefore_o must_v use_v his_o prudence_n and_o do_v that_o which_o be_v most_o proper_a for_o himself_o as_o well_o in_o relation_n to_o the_o public_a as_o to_o his_o own_o private_a condition_n lxxxv_o i_o think_v we_o can_v better_o conclude_v these_o observation_n then_o
