very_o unreasonable_a for_o what_o time_n fit_a for_o solemnize_n the_o rite_n of_o marriage_n than_o time_n of_o festivitie_n and_o joy_n yea_o but_o the_o author_n do_v not_o exempt_a all_o fast_o of_o festival_n time_n but_o only_o such_o as_o be_v solemn_a and_o sacred_a holy_a time_n that_o be_v somewhat_o to_o the_o purpose_n holy_a time_n alas_o poor_a marriage_n be_v thou_o now_o become_v

it_o seem_v be_v a_o unnecessary_a avocation_n as_o our_o author_n term_v it_o a_o unnecessary_a avocation_n and_o be_v it_o not_o a_o necessary_a vocation_n how_o then_o a_o unnecessary_a avocation_n but_o why_o shall_v marriage_n if_o right_o use_v according_a to_o god_n ordinance_n be_v either_o a_o necessary_a or_o unnecessary_a avocation_n be_v the_o marriage_n in_o cana_n whereat_o it_o

believe_v all_o those_o that_o have_v write_v and_o calculate_v the_o very_a time_n of_o that_o marriage_n they_o say_v all_o with_o one_o unanimous_a voice_n for_o the_o most_o part_n that_o it_o be_v within_o a_o little_a of_o the_o passeover_n or_o easter_n yea_o within_o less_o than_o 40._o or_o yet_o twenty_o day_n but_o we_o hope_v then_o that_o the_o marry_a couple_n have_v procure_v a_o licence_n out_o of_o the_o high_a priest_n court_n alas_o they_o be_v a_o poor_a couple_n not_o able_a to_o provide_v wine_n as_o the_o usual_a manner_n of_o the_o country_n require_v but_o water_n only_o and_o scant_o of_o that_o too_o for_o there_o be_v six_o water-pot_n of_o stone_n but_o want_v fill_v up_o but_o no_o wine_n at_o all_o and_o ten_o shilling_n or_o more_o for_o a_o licence_n will_v have_v say_v well_o to_o the_o fill_n of_o those_o pot_n with_o wine_n as_o wine_n go_v in_o that_o plentiful_a country_n but_o neither_o do_v we_o read_v that_o on_o any_o such_o time_n or_o

the_o jew_n where_o notwithstanding_o the_o very_a high_a priest_n office_n be_v ordinary_o buy_v and_o sell_v enough_o to_o have_v put_v they_o to_o their_o wit_n to_o improve_v all_o mean_n to_o

a_o doctrine_n of_o devil_n ob._n but_o it_o may_v be_v object_v how_o then_o be_v this_o practice_n creep_v into_o the_o church_n of_o england_n answ._n it_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n to_o find_v which_o way_n it_o creep_v in_o than_o it_o seem_v how_o it_o may_v be_v sweep_v out_o it_o lurk_v among_o some_o rubbish_n of_o romish_a relic_n and_o so_o escape_v ship_v away_o with_o other_o of_o rome_n trinket_n yea_o it_o may_v well_o in_o my_o judgement_n be_v answer_v that_o it_o be_v not_o profess_v or_o avow_a in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n but_o in_o certain_a court_n only_o and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v wish_v that_o the_o author_n with_o all_o his_o devotion_n can_v persuade_v those_o court_n that_o forasmuch_o as_o the_o time_n prohibit_v for_o marriage_n be_v holy_a and_o sacred_a fit_a for_o fast_v or_o festival_n joy_n they_o will_v by_o these_o reason_n dissuade_v their_o suitor_n from_o take_v licence_n marriage_n also_o be_v a_o unnecessary_a avocation_n and_o the_o like_a thus_o by_o put_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o time_n sacred_a and_o common_a the_o court_n may_v either_o dissuade_v from_o licence_n for_o the_o time_n or_o pulley_n up_o such_o licence_n to_o a_o high_a rate_n so_o put_v a_o pecuniary_a mulct_n upon_o such_o delinquent_n but_o a_o light_a gain_n make_v a_o heavy_a purse_n and_o licenciâ_fw-la sumus_fw-la omnes_fw-la

minister_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n find_v it_o not_o as_o a_o decree_n or_o doctrine_n to_o subscribe_v to_o yet_o they_o conform_v to_o the_o practice_n of_o it_o they_o do_v not_o marry_v in_o any_o prohibit_v time_n without_o a_o licence_n answ._n this_o be_v a_o thing_n but_o take_v up_o of_o a_o fashion_n as_o i_o imagine_v and_o so_o practise_v as_o a_o tradition_n not_o well_o

that_o i_o know_v but_o the_o pope_n canon_n law_n i_o dare_v say_v it_o be_v not_o in_o all_o the_o common_a law_n of_o england_n nor_o yet_o in_o the_o statute_n law_n of_o the_o land_n and_o whether_o the_o pope_n canon_n law_n be_v cancel_v in_o england_n to_o be_v frustrate_a de_fw-fr jure_fw-la at_o least_o though_o not_o de_fw-fr facto_fw-la i_o can_v say_v but_o enough_o if_o not_o too_o much_o of_o this_o matter_n but_o come_v we_o to_o the_o body_n of_o the_o book_n wherein_o we_o purpose_v not_o to_o insist_v but_o to_o touch_v upon_o some_o point_n and_o passage_n light_o
