in_o respect_n thereof_o yet_o remember_v though_o these_o affliction_n do_v not_o last_v yet_o the_o bond_n of_o marriage_n dure_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o life_n nor_o give_v thy_o humour_n

second_o that_o if_o thou_o marry_v for_o beauty_n thou_o bind_v thyself_o for_o all_o thy_o life_n for_o that_o which_o perchance_o will_v neither_o last_n nor_o please_v thou_o one_o year_n and_o when_o thou_o have_v it_o it_o will_v be_v unto_o thou_o of_o no_o price_n at_o all_o for_o the_o desire_n die_v when_o it_o be_v attain_a and_o the_o affection_n perish_v when_o it_o be_v satisfy_v remember_v when_o thou_o be_v a_o suck_a child_n thou_o do_v love_v thy_o nurse_n and_o that_o thou_o be_v fond_a of_o she_o after_o a_o child_n thou_o do_v love_v thy_o dry_a nurse_n and_o do_v

yet_o forbear_v to_o link_v and_o after_o a_o while_o thou_o shall_v find_v a_o alteration_n in_o thyself_o and_o see_v another_o far_o more_o please_a than_o the_o first_o second_o or_o three_o love_n yet_o i_o wish_v thou_o above_o all_o the_o rest_n have_v care_n thou_o do_v not_o marry_v a_o uncomely_a woman_n for_o any_o respect_n comeliness_n in_o child_n be_v riches_n if_o nothing_o

therefore_o of_o both_o together_o for_o if_o

thou_o have_v a_o fair_a wife_n &_o a_o poor_a one_o if_o thy_o own_o estate_n be_v not_o great_a assure_v thyself_o that_o love_n abide_v not_o with_o want_n for_o she_o be_v the_o companion_n of_o
