shall_v perform_v unto_o thou_o in_o many_o thing_n for_o for_o this_o cause_n also_o have_v thou_o obtain_v thy_o wisdom_n &_o thy_o knowledge_n and_o thy_o understanding_n that_o thou_o may_v bear_v with_o the_o weakness_n of_o thy_o companion_n we_o read_v that_o when_o samuel_n have_v anoint_v saul_n to_o be_v 10._o 1._o sam._n 10._o a_o king_n over_o the_o people_n so_o soon_o as_o he_o have_v

those_o man_n which_o he_o permit_v unto_o that_o honourable_a function_n of_o marriage_n he_o furnish_v with_o gift_n fit_v for_o that_o call_n for_o it_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o no_o small_a weight_n when_o a_o man_n take_v upon_o he_o the_o government_n of_o a_o woman_n but_o if_o he_o right_o consider_v what_o he_o take_v in_o hand_n he_o shall_v find_v he_o have_v need_n with_o solomon_n to_o pray_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v give_v unto_o he_o wisdom_n to_o rule_v &_o govern_v the_o wife_n which_o he_o have_v take_v as_o he_o do_v for_o wisdom_n to_o govern_v his_o people_n &_o both_o the_o husband_n &_o the_o wife_n when_o they_o come_v together_o to_o pray_v with_o tobias_n and_o sarah_n that_o the_o power_n of_o 8._o tob._n 8._o the_o devil_n have_v no_o domination_n over_o they_o and_o so_o he_o shall_v be_v strengthen_v and_o enable_v to_o bear_v with_o the_o weakness_n of_o his_o companion_n we_o see_v if_o we_o put_v strong_a water_n into_o a_o single_a &_o weak_a glass_n it_o break_v the_o glass_n because_o it_o want_v substance_n of_o nature_n to_o bear_v it_o and_o therefore_o we_o will_v put_v such_o water_n careful_o into_o double_a glass_n which_o may_v conserve_v and_o keep_v they_o so_o we_o shall_v not_o overburthen_v the_o weak_a nature_n of_o the_o woman_n by_o impose_v upon_o she_o that_o which_o the_o husband_n himself_o ought_v to_o perform_v of_o which_o i_o have_v former_o speak_v and_o this_o be_v one_o simile_n simile_n chief_a reason_n which_o shall_v move_v the_o man_n to_o deal_v kind_o with_o his_o wife_n even_o her_o weakness_n for_o we_o see_v if_o we_o handle_v vessel_n wife_n a_o reason_n show_v why_o a_o man_n shall_v deal_v kind_o with_o his_o wife_n of_o glass_n and_o earth_n rough_o or_o rash_o we_o crack_v &_o break_v they_o and_o i_o will_v that_o man_n be_v as_o wise_a and_o careful_a to_o consider_v the_o weakensse_n of_o their_o wife_n and_o to_o deal_v kind_o gentle_o and_o love_o with_o they_o so_o conserve_n and_o preserve_v that_o love_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v betwixt_o they_o and_o will_v be_v if_o it_o be_v not_o expulse_v by_o their_o rough_a and_o unkind_a deal_n with_o they_o and_o there_o be_v another_o reason_n or_o chief_a ground_n to_o be_v consider_v great_a than_o any_o of_o the_o former_a which_o shall_v draw_v man_n to_o the_o performance_n of_o this_o their_o duty_n for_o so_o st._n paul_n do_v teach_v we_o also_o which_o be_v that_o every_o man_n shall_v cause_n another_o more_o effectual_a reason_n for_o the_o same_o cause_n have_v a_o special_a care_n to_o perform_v these_o duty_n impose_v upon_o he_o the_o rather_o or_o for_o this_o cause_n because_o they_o be_v beire_n with_o you_o of_o the_o grace_n of_o life_n elect_v by_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n jesus_n to_o that_o fellowship_n of_o saint_n wherein_o you_o yourselves_o hope_v to_o be_v number_v &_o as_o dear_o belove_v of_o god_n as_o yourselves_o buy_v out_o of_o the_o power_n of_o satan_n by_o the_o precious_a blood_n of_o his_o dear_a son_n as_o well_o as_o you_o and_o heir_n also_o of_o that_o eternal_a life_n which_o you_o yourselves_o hope_v to_o enjoy_v and_o therefore_o if_o you_o yourselves_o think_v to_o live_v as_o saint_n in_o heaven_n you_o must_v live_v together_o as_o saint_n here_o on_o earth_n these_o thing_n as_o a_o loadestone_n shall_v draw_v
