the_o marriage_n that_o have_v a_o blessing_n that_o mind_n god_n join_v and_o god_n ordinance_n and_o the_o people_n of_o god_n be_v to_o practise_v it_o in_o all_o age_n and_o the_o faithful_a do_v observe_v and_o do_v it_o as_o abraham_n the_o father_n and_o pattern_n of_o the_o faithful_a charge_v his_o chief_a servant_n to_o go_v to_o his_o own_o people_n and_o take_v a_o wife_n for_o his_o

when_o the_o jew_n do_v mix_v in_o marriage_n with_o other_o people_n they_o corrupt_v they_o and_o draw_v they_o from_o god_n and_o kindle_v his_o anger_n against_o they_o as_o you_o may_v see_v

of_o their_o father_n abraham_n isaac_n and_o jacob._n and_o you_o may_v see_v that_o solomon_n a_o wise_a king_n his_o taking_z of_o stranger_n turn_v his_o heart_n to_o worship_v idol_n for_o
