1._o thes_n 1._o woman_n especial_o of_o marry_a woman_n &_o show_v wherein_o their_o chief_a deck_v shall_v not_o be_v and_o then_o wherein_o it_o shall_v be_v it_o must_v not_o be_v outward_a for_o

be_v these_o woman_n think_v to_o win_v their_o husband_n be_v gentile_n by_o apparel_v themselves_o like_o the_o gentile_n but_o the_o apostle_n tell_v they_o there_o be_v other_o ornament_n fit_a for_o that_o purpose_n as_o weakness_n of_o mind_n reverend_a word_n and_o dutiful_a work_n that_o be_v the_o only_a attire_n of_o true_a christian_n he_o set_v down_o one_o particular_a of_o outward_a attire_n wherein_o their_o apparel_n must_v not_o be_v that_o be_v broider_a hair_n which_o be_v the_o fashion_n of_o the_o gentile_n to_o let_v their_o hair_n which_o be_v give_v they_o

for_o christian_n that_o the_o apostle_n banish_v it_o out_o of_o all_o church_n as_o appear_v in_o the_o former_a epistle_n to_o the_o corinthian_n now_o 11_o 1._o cor._n 11_o under_o this_o one_o

will_v have_v it_o inward_a and_o he_o name_v also_o one_o part_n of_o the_o inward_a attire_n or_o new_a man_n wherein_o their_o apparel_n must_v be_v that_o be_v meekness_n and_o quietness_n of_o spirit_n and_o under_o that_o he_o comprehende_v all_o the_o rest_n for_o there_o be_v divers_a other_o inward_a ornament_n beside_o this_o in_o the_o five_o chapter_n of_o this_o epistle_n he_o say_v deck_n yourselves_o inward_o with_o lowliness_n of_o mind_n whereby_o it_o seem_v some_o be_v proud_a of_o their_o outward_a apparel_n although_o there_o be_v no_o more_o cause_n for_o man_n or_o

he_o speak_v to_o woman_n say_v who_o apparel_v let_v it_o not_o be_v outward_a but_o let_v the_o hide_a man_n of_o the_o heart_n be_v uncorrupt_a with_o a_o meek_a and_o quiet_a spirit_n for_o that_o which_o set_v out_o the_o body_n only_o must_v not_o be_v the_o attire_n that_o christian_a woman_n do_v affect_v but_o that_o which_o set_v forth_o ●he_v goodness_n of_o the_o mind_n now_o these_o

this_o meekness_n in_o receive_v the_o word_n that_o be_v the_o commandment_n admonition_n &_o reprehention_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n so_o the_o apostle_n peter_n will_v have_v christian_a wife_n show_v it_o in_o receive_v the_o commandment_n and_o admonition_n of_o their_o husband_n who_o be_v infidel_n and_o therefore_o will_v often_o peradventure_o cross_v they_o and_o offer_v occasion_n to_o move_v they_o now_o those_o that_o have_v meek_a mind_n may_v live_v with_o any_o man_n and_o those_o that_o have_v not_o will_n live_v quiet_o with_o no_o man_n therefore_o say_v peter_n let_v the_o hide_a man_n of_o the_o heart_n be_v deck_v with_o a_o meek_a and_o quiet_a spirit_n and_o then_o you_o shall_v be_v the_o trim_a woman_n in_o the_o country_n but_o if_o you_o want_v this_o you_o want_v your_o chief_a ornament_n though_o you_o have_v never_o so_o many_o jewel_n and_o aglet_n about_o you_o but_o in_o that_o the_o apostle_n do_v call_v they_o from_o the_o desire_n and_o endeavour_n of_o these_o outward_a ornament_n to_o the_o regard_n of_o inward_a virtue_n it_o show_v what_o we_o be_v most_o addict_v unto_o namely_o to_o neglect_v our_o precious_a soul_n and_o to_o provide_v for_o our_o rot_a body_n gentlewomen_z often_o look_v in_o a_o glass_n of_o steel_n to_o see_v if_o all_o be_v well_o without_o but_o seldom_o look_v in_o the_o glass_n of_o god_n word_n to_o see_v if_o all_o be_v well_o within_o you_o shall_v find_v they_o often_o in_o sturbidge_n fair_a in_o the_o royal_a exchange_n in_o the_o goldsmith_n or_o mercer_n shop_n but_o seldom_o in_o the_o church_n they_o will_v bestow_v much_o money_n to_o procure_v ring_n jewel_n and_o the_o like_a but_o be_v at_o no_o charge_n to_o maintain_v a_o preacher_n but_o as_o when_o man_n be_v very_o worldly_a it_o be_v a_o sign_n they_o be_v nothing_o heavenly_a &_o as_o when_o man_n be_v much_o give_v to_o ceremony_n common_o they_o neglect_v the_o substance_n of_o religion_n so_o when_o gentlewoman_n be_v so_o give_v to_o the_o outward_a attire_n they_o regard_v not_o the_o inward_a they_o have_v so_o many_o partlet_n fillet_n fruntlet_n brastlet_n that_o they_o can_v attend_v to_o the_o chief_a thing_n i_o read_v of_o one_o pando_n who_o see_v a_o gentlewoman_n curious_a in_o attyre_v herself_o weep_v ●aying_v she_o be_v more_o careful_a to_o trim_v her_o body_n than_o i_o be_o my_o soul_n but_o the_o reason_n that_o the_o apostle_n use_v to_o persuade_v woman_n to_o prefer_v the_o ornament_n of_o the_o mind_n before_o the_o ornament_n of_o the_o body_n be_v not_o to_o be_v forget_v which_o be_v three_o first_o those_o of_o the_o body_n be_v corrupt_a these_o of_o the_o mind_n be_v uncorrupt_a second_o god_n do_v set_v by_o these_o of_o the_o mind_n three_o holy_a woman_n have_v thus_o tire_v themselves_o especial_o sara_n the_o mother_n not_o only_o of_o the_o maid_n but_o of_o christian_a wife_n also_o for_o first_o when_o he_o say_v let_v the_o hide_a man_n of_o the_o hart_n be_v uncorrupt_a he_o secret_o impli_v that_o the_o other_o attire_n that_o be_v outward_a be_v corrupt_v as_o james_n say_v your_o riches_n be_v corrupt_a so_o he_o say_v your_o garment_n 1._o jam._n 5._o 1._o be_v moth-eaten_a now_o who_o will_v much_o affect_v those_o thing_n that_o will_v perish_v either_o by_o natural_a or_o accidental_a mean_n but_o virtue_n be_v uncorrupt_a and_o shall_v not_o perish_v when_o he_o say_v this_o inward_a attire_n of_o meekness_n before_o god_n be_v a_o thing_n much_o set_v by_o he_o mean_v that_o god_n care_v not_o for_o the_o other_o david_n say_v he_o delight_v in_o no_o man_n leg_n much_o less_o in_o his_o stocking_n man_n may_v peradventure_o esteem_v the_o other_o but_o god_n esteem_v this_o for_o god_n see_v not_o as_o man_n see_v man_n look_v on_o the_o outward_a appearance_n but_o god_n

behold_v the_o hart_n now_o a_o christian_n must_v seek_v to_o approve_v himself_o to_o god_n &_o not_o so_o much_o to_o man_n some_o gentlewoman_n when_o she_o have_v put_v on_o silk_n velvet_n fine_a linen_n feather_n gold_n silver_n pearl_n and_o such_o brave_a thing_n do_v imagine_v that_o those_o thing_n do_v much_o commend_v she_o when_o they_o do_v discommend_v she_o &_o show_v her_o pride_n excess_n wantonness_n &_o corrupt_a mind_n but_o if_o she_o have_v inward_a virtue_n especial_o a_o meek_a spirit_n this_o be_v before_o god_n and_o godly_a people_n a_o thing_n much_o set_v by_o because_o it_o be_v apparel_n of_o the_o lord_n own_o make_n but_o when_o woman_n have_v such_o stir_a affection_n as_o they_o will_v chat_v and_o chide_v it_o out_o when_o any_o thing_n be_v speak_v or_o do_v by_o their_o husband_n that_o they_o like_v not_o god_n can_v abide_v it_o therefore_o although_o infidel_n do_v in_o their_o apparel_n &_o in_o all_o thing_n seek_v but_o to_o please_v man_n yet_o christian_n must_v seek_v to_o please_v god_n his_o thi●●e_a reason_n be_v take_v from_o the_o example_n of_o holy_a woman_n as_o paul_n in_o the_o same_o point_n refer_v the_o 11_o 1._o cor._n 11_o corinthian_n to_o the_o example_n of_o the_o church_n &_o good_a woman_n that_o then_o do_v live_v so_o peter_n refer_v they_o the_o example_n of_o good_a woman_n that_o be_v dead_a a_o record_n whereof_o they_o may_v have_v in_o the_o scripture_n god_n have_v not_o only_o give_v we_o rule_n but_o that_o we_o may_v be_v sufficient_o encourage_v to_o follow_v virtue_n and_o be_v leave_v without_o excuse_n if_o we_o do_v not_o he_o have_v leave_v we_o example_n both_o of_o man_n and_o woman_n that_o have_v show_v we_o the_o way_n of_o virtue_n many_o will_v allege_v the_o example_n of_o the_o father_n to_o follow_v they_o in_o their_o vice_n but_o their_o fault_n be_v set_v down_o to_o show_v the_o frailty_n of_o man_n that_o we_o may_v take_v heed_n of_o they_o and_o to_o show_v the_o mercy_n of_o god_n that_o we_o may_v learn_v to_o rise_v out_o of_o they_o only_o their_o virtue_n be_v set_v down_o that_o we_o may_v follow_v they_o therefore_o when_o we_o will_v follow_v any_o man_n or_o woman_n we_o must_v look_v the_o thing_n be_v good_a that_o we_o follow_v second_o that_o it_o be_v good_a for_o we_o for_o that_o may_v be_v good_a in_o one_o that_o be_v not_o in_o another_o as_o it_o be_v a_o good_a thing_n in_o abraham_n to_o offer_v his_o son_n in_o sacrifice_n because_o he_o have_v a_o commandment_n for_o it_o but_o it_o be_v evil_a in_o other_o that_o do_v it_o without_o warrant_n three_o we_o must_v look_v the_o thing_n be_v good_a when_o we_o do_v follow_v it_o the_o father_n do_v well_o in_o worship_v god_n on_o the_o mountain_n and_o high_a place_n but_o when_o god_n have_v erect_v his_o temple_n they_o do_v evil_a that_o do_v so_o the_o papist_n do_v much_o urge_v the_o example_n of_o the_o father_n but_o they_o mean_v augustine_n jerome_n barnard_n &_o those_o but_o they_o speak_v not_o of_o abraham_n isaac_n jacob_n and_o those_o but_o if_o the_o authority_n of_o father_n shall_v move_v we_o than_o those_o that_o be_v most_o ancient_a &_o do_v most_o deserve_v the_o name_n of_o father_n must_v move_v most_o again_o the_o papist_n speak_v of_o the_o virtue_n of_o good_a man_n and_o woman_n to_o move_v we_o to_o worship_v they_o and_o not_o to_o follow_v they_o but_o if_o they_o be_v use_v to_o that_o end_n they_o cease_v to_o be_v example_n that_o be_v for_o imitation_n and_o not_o for_o adoration_n when_o we_o speak_v of_o this_o or_o that_o virtue_n some_o say_v these_o be_v good_a thing_n if_o we_o can_v practice_v they_o why_o abraham_n be_v faithful_a joseph_n be_v chaste_a job_n be_v patient_a jonathan_n be_v love_v the_o centurion_n be_v humble_a cornelius_n be_v charitable_a sara_n be_v meek_a why_o shall_v not_o we_o some_o will_v say_v these_o be_v rare_a man_n and_o woman_n but_o they_o be_v not_o set_v down_o to_o be_v wonder_v at_o but_o to_o be_v follow_v how_o come_v they_o to_o be_v so_o excellent_a but_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n &_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n be_v able_a to_o make_v we_o like_o they_o yea_o like_a god_n himself_o if_o we_o will_v use_v the_o meane●_n of_o grace_n as_o they_o do_v those_o that_o will_v be_v like_o the_o saint_n in_o glory_n must_v labour_v to_o be_v like_o they_o in_o virtue_n and_o as_o in_o other_o place_n of_o scripture_n the_o holy_a ghost_n commend_v to_o we_o the_o example_n of_o holy_a man_n so_o here_o the_o apostle_n commend_v to_o we_o the_o example_n of_o holy_a woman_n because_o he_o speak_v to_o woman_n and_o if_o any_o shall_v desire_v a_o particular_a instance_n he_o mean_v sara_n because_o she_o be_v one_o of_o the_o most_o excellent_a and_o yet_o she_o be_v not_o alone_o but_o there_o be_v many_o other_o like_o she_o in_o this_o that_o be_v go_v before_o and_o so_o must_v those_o that_o follow_v after_o therefore_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o inward_a virtue_n of_o the_o mind_n as_o the_o most_o excellent_a ornament_n of_o christian_a woman_n especial_o meekness_n and_o quietness_n of_o spirit_n which_o they_o have_v some_o want_n of_o and_o stand_v in_o most_o need_n of_o be_v yoke_v with_o infidel_n he_o say_v after_o this_o manner_n holy_a woman_n tire_v themselves_o as_o sara_n we_o have_v a_o proverb_n that_o which_o be_v far_o fetch_v and_o dear_a buy_v be_v good_a for_o lady_n who_o care_v not_o for_o common_a thing_n then_o let_v they_o labour_v for_o these_o virtue_n which_o be_v far_o fetch_v in_o respect_n of_o time_n four_o thousand_o year_n ago_o and_o in_o respect_n of_o place_n they_o come_v from_o heaven_n and_o from_o the_o holy_a land_n and_o
