must_v you_o understand_v that_o the_o husband_n be_v the_o wife_n head_n as_o christ_n be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o congregation_n and_o christ_n show_v to_o the_o congregation_n the_o same_o thing_n

their_o preservation_n &_o not_o with_o force_n or_o wilfulness_n to_o entreat_v they_o and_o s._n paul_n say_v far_a so_o ought_v man_n to_o love_v their_o wife_n as_o their_o own_o body_n he_o that_o love_v his_o wife_n love_v himself_o for_o no_o man_n have_v at_o any_o time_n hate_v his_o own_o flesh_n but_o do_v nourish_v and_o cherish_v it_o even_o as_o the_o lord_n do_v the_o congregation_n therefore_o ought_v every_o man_n most_o fernent_o to_o love_v his_o wife_n equal_o with_o himself_o in_o all_o point_n for_o this_o be_v the_o measure_n of_o mutual_a love_n matrimonial_a that_o either_o party_n have_v nothing_o so_o dear_a that_o they_o can_v not_o be_v content_v to_o bestow_v one_o upon_o another_o you_o and_o if_o need_n shall_v be_v they_o shall_v also_o not_o spare_v their_o own_o live_v one_o for_o another_o no_o more_o than_o christ_n do_v for_o his_o congregation_n and_o like_v as_o when_o we_o repent_v and_o believe_v in_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n though_o we_o be_v never_o so_o poor_a sinner_n be_v as_o rich_a as_o christ_n &_o all_o merit_v we_o so_o be_v a_o woman_n though_o she_o be_v never_o so_o poor_a afore_o she_o be_v marry_v as_o rich_a as_o her_o husband_n for_o all_o the_o he_o have_v be_v she_o you_o his_o own_o body_n and_o have_v power_n over_o it_o as_z sai_v saint_n paul_n and_o if_o it_o so_o chance_n that_o you_o find_v not_o your_o wife_n so_o perfect_a in_o all_o point_n as_o you_o will_v or_o as_o yourself_o yet_o must_v you_o not_o despise_v she_o nor_o be_v bitteer_n nor_o cruel_a unto_o she_o for_o her_o fault_n but_o gentle_o and_o love_o seek_v to_o amend_v and_o win_v she_o for_o like_a as_o christ_n think_v no_o scorn_n of_o his_o church_n despise_v she_o not_o neither_o forsake_v she_o for_o her_o uncleanness_n and_o sin_n so_o shall_v no_o christian_n man_n spurn_v at_o his_o wife_n nor_o set_v light_n by_o she_o because_o that_o sometime_o she_o fall_v offend_v or_o go_v not_o right_a but_o even_o as_o christ_n nourish_v and_o teach_v his_o church_n so_o ought_v every_o honest_a husband_n also_o love_o and_o gentle_o to_o inform_v &_o instruct_v his_o wife_n for_o in_o many_o thing_n say_v s._n peter_n god_n have_v make_v the_o man_n strong_a than_o the_o woman_n not_o to_o rage_v upon_o they_o &_o to_o be_v tyrant_n unto_o they_o but_o to_o help_v they_o &_o bear_v their_o weakness_n be_v courteous_a therefore_o say_v he_o and_o win_v they_o to_o christ_n and_o overcome_v they_o with_o kindness_n that_o of_o love_n they_o may_v obey_v the_o ordinance_n that_o god_n make_v beetwéene_v man_n and_o wife_n oh_o how_o ashamed_a be_v those_o man_n to_o look_v upon_o this_o text_n which_o with_o violence_n in_o their_o fury_n will_v entreat_v their_o wife_n no_o beast_n so_o beastly_a for_o in_o the_o most_o cruel_a way_n be_v not_o mete_v as_o when_o the_o wife_n be_v sad_a and_o disquiet_v then_o with_o spiteful_a word_n and_o wanton_a fashion_n so_o provoke_v she_o to_o anger_v where_o it_o be_v not_o the_o duty_n of_o the_o husband_n but_o rather_o ashamed_a to_o his_o own_o head_n likewise_o it_o be_v worship_n for_o a_o man_n to_o have_v the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n before_o his_o eye_n that_o he_o provoke_v not_o the_o plague_n of_o vengeance_n let_v we_o therefore_o have_v humility_n in_o our_o heart_n for_o as_o a_o wise_a man_n look_v well_o to_o his_o own_o go_n even_o so_o pleasant_a be_v the_o word_n speak_v in_o due_a season_n which_o move_v the_o woman_n in_o her_o wrath_n unto_o patience_n whereof_o solomon_n say_v fair_a word_n be_v a_o honey_n combe_z a_o refresh_v of_o the_o mind_n and_o a_o health_n of_o the_o bone_n for_o it_o be_v seldom_o see_v that_o any_o beast_n be_v find_v in_o the_o cruel_a rage_n that_z the_o male_n do_v ever_o hurt_v his_o female_n and_o how_o unnatural_a a_o thing_n be_v it_o for_o a_o man_n to_o hurt_v his_o own_o flesh_n and_o body_n who_o will_v violent_o revenge_v himself_o yea_o on_o his_o foot_n if_o it_o chance_v to_o stumble_v but_o will_v not_o rather_o if_o he_o have_v a_o ill_a body_n cherish_v it_o to_o make_v it_o better_o the_o strong_a say_v s._n paul_n ought_v to_o bear_v the_o frailness_n of_o the_o weak_a let_v one_o suffer_v with_o another_o bear_v you_o one_o a_o other_o burden_n and_o so_o shall_v you_o fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o christ_n and_o above_o all_o thing_n say_v s._n peter_n have_v fervent_a love_n amongst_o you_o for_o love_n cover_v the_o multitude_n of_o fault_n so_o that_o love_n in_o all_o thing_n and_o
