in_o the_o word_n of_o my_o text_n that_o it_o be_v not_o evil_a to_o marry_v but_o it_o be_v good_a to_o be_v wary_a that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o abuse_n or_o badness_n of_o some_o that_o aught_o to_o make_v god_n ordinance_n the_o less_o value_v or_o the_o less_o esteem_v be_v in_o itself_o and_o of_o itself_o a_o matter_n of_o great_a benefit_n that_o as_o the_o inconvenience_n be_v great_a and_o grievous_a that_o a_o bad_a wife_n bring_v with_o she_o so_o the_o benefit_n on_o the_o other_o side_n be_v no_o less_o that_o come_v by_o a_o good_a wife_n by_o a_o wise_a and_o a_o discreet_a woman_n who_o be_v therefore_o here_o commend_v as_o a_o special_a gift_n as_o a_o principal_a blessing_n of_o god_n such_o as_o go_v beyond_o any_o other_o temporal_a blessing_n whatsoever_o and_o sure_o steph._n as_o there_o be_v no_o great_a temporal_a cross_n or_o curse_v then_o the_o one_o so_o be_v there_o no_o great_a temporal_a blessing_n then_o the_o other_o 13._o now_o this_o solomon_n to_o show_v as_o before_o he_o compare_v two_o great_a evil_n together_o and_o find_v a_o bad_a wife_n to_o be_v the_o worse_o so_o here_o he_o compare_v two_o great_a benefit_n together_o and_o affirm_v a_o good_a wife_n to_o be_v the_o great_a house_n and_o possession_n wealth_n and_o riches_n land_n and_o live_n be_v 115._o that_o that_o most_o man_n regard_v and_o look_v after_o yea_o man_n be_v wont_a to_o seek_v wife_n for_o wealth_n but_o say_v solomon_n as_o menand_n a_o good_a name_n so_o a_o good_a wife_n a_o wise_a and_o a_o discreet_a woman_n be_v better_a than_o wealth_n her_o price_n be_v far_o above_o pearl_n for_o house_n and_o possession_n be_v the_o inheritance_n of_o the_o father_n but_o a_o prudent_a wife_n be_v of_o the_o lord_n which_o yet_o we_o be_v not_o so_o to_o understand_v mean_v neither_o the_o former_a part_n as_o if_o worldly_a wealth_n and_o riches_n and_o possession_n be_v not_o god_n gift_n for_o theb._n it_o be_v the_o blessing_n of_o god_n that_o make_v a_o man_n rich_a 2._o unless_o he_o build_v the_o house_n it_o will_v never_o be_v build_v and_o 8._o it_o be_v he_o that_o give_v man_n power_n to_o gather_v wealth_n together_o nor_o yet_o again_o the_o latter_a part_n as_o if_o parent_n have_v no_o hand_n right_a or_o power_n in_o dispose_v of_o their_o child_n or_o in_o advise_v they_o and_o provide_v in_o that_o kind_n for_o they_o 2._o samson_n require_v his_o parent_n consent_n and_o 3._o god_n charge_v his_o people_n not_o to_o make_v match_n between_o their_o child_n and_o the_o canaanite_n either_o by_o give_v their_o daughter_n unto_o the_o son_n of_o the_o canaanite_n or_o by_o take_v the_o canaanite_n daughter_n unto_o their_o son_n which_o he_o will_v not_o do_v be_v not_o they_o at_o all_o to_o deal_v in_o the_o dispose_n of_o they_o and_o many_o no_o doubt_n will_v they_o take_v advice_n of_o their_o parent_n and_o not_o follow_v their_o own_o fancy_n and_o make_v their_o wanton_a eye_n or_o their_o wander_a lust_n their_o chooser_n and_o counsellor_n in_o such_o case_n may_v do_v much_o better_a than_o for_o want_v hereof_o they_o do_v but_o the_o meaning_n of_o solomon_n be_v this_o only_a that_o the_o one_o be_v a_o more_o special_a gift_n of_o god_n than_o the_o other_o that_o there_o be_v a_o more_o special_a hand_n of_o god_n in_o the_o one_o then_o in_o the_o other_o as_o that_o be_v a_o less_o benefit_n than_o this_o so_o that_o be_v in_o man_n power_n more_o than_o this_o so_o that_o two_o point_n then_o here_o in_o solomon_n word_n offer_v themselves_o unto_o we_o the_o former_a that_o a_o good_a wife_n be_v god_n gift_n the_o latter_a that_o god_n providence_n be_v more_o special_a in_o a_o wife_n then_o in_o wealth_n for_o the_o former_a a_o good_a wife_n be_v god_n gift_n 1_o for_o a_o prudent_a wife_n say_v solomon_n be_v of_o the_o lord_n and_o 22._o he_o that_o find_v a_o wife_n that_o be_v a_o good_a wife_n as_o a_o ibid._n name_n for_o a_o good_a
