they_o be_v bone_n of_o their_o bone_n and_o flesh_n of_o their_o flesh_n now_o then_o from_o this_o interest_n parent_n have_v in_o their_o child_n as_o appear_v evident_o we_o may_v conclude_v thus_o much_o that_o it_o be_v a_o offence_n and_o a_o sin_n of_o a_o high_a nature_n for_o child_n to_o bestow_v themselves_o in_o marriage_n without_o much_o more_o if_o against_o the_o free_a

i_o say_v parent_n with_o over_o the_o body_n of_o their_o child_n for_o we_o must_v know_v that_o god_n be_v the_o father_n of_o spirit_n in_o a_o more_o peculiar_a manner_n and_o have_v they_o whole_o and_o sole_o at_o his_o own_o command_n and_o that_o in_o relation_n to_o the_o bestow_v they_o in_o marriage_n parent_n have_v power_n to_o bestow_v their_o daughter_n in_o marriage_n and_o to_o take_v wife_n for_o their_o son_n deut._n 7.3_o which_o i_o gather_v from_o that_o place_n by_o the_o rule_n of_o contrary_n but_o the_o text_n be_v most_o proper_o a_o inhibition_n of_o corrupt_a marriage_n but_o more_o full_a to_o this_o purpose_n be_v that_o place_n in_o jer._n 29.6_o where_o the_o lord_n speak_v thus_o take_v you_o wife_n and_o beget_v son_n and_o daughter_n and_o take_v you_o wife_n for_o your_o son_n and_o give_v your_o daughter_n to_o husband_n which_o make_v this_o point_n clear_a that_o the_o lord_n i_o be_o more_o say_v do_v invest_v parent_n with_o a_o full_a power_n over_o their_o child_n in_o relation_n to_o marriage_n yet_o mistake_v i_o not_o i_o dare_v not_o think_v much_o less_o say_v that_o parent_n have_v a_o power_n to_o force_v their_o child_n against_o their_o own_o will_n to_o marry_v or_o be_v marry_v as_o they_o please_v i_o only_o intend_v that_o though_o child_n must_v have_v their_o own_o free_a consent_n to_o marry_v with_o such_o or_o such_o a_o person_n that_o yet_o they_o may_v not_o nor_o lawful_o not_o without_o the_o consent_n of_o their_o parent_n so_o that_o from_o this_o power_n god_n have_v give_v parent_n over_o their_o child_n we_o do_v again_o aver_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o former_a conclusion_n that_o be_v that_o it_o be_v a_o offence_n and_o sin_n of_o a_o high_a nature_n for_o child_n to_o bestow_v themselves_o in_o marriage_n without_o much_o more_o if_o against_o the_o free_a consent_n of_o their_o parent_n but_o to_o lay_v this_o sin_n yet_o close_o to_o the_o heart_n of_o curse_a

for_o they_o to_o bestow_v themselves_o in_o marriage_n thus_o without_o much_o more_o i_o say_v against_o the_o consent_n of_o their_o parent_n be_v a_o capital_a breach_n of_o the_o five_o seven_o

and_o by_o this_o their_o bestow_n themselves_o in_o marriage_n against_o their_o consent_n they_o cast_v the_o great_a dishonour_n upon_o they_o that_o can_v be_v think_v for_o by_o this_o act_n of_o they_o they_o seem_v to_o dispute_v nay_o they_o do_v dispute_v their_o parent_n interest_n over_o they_o nay_o further_o the_o validity_n of_o the_o free_a donation_n of_o jehovah_n himself_o who_o have_v as_o you_o have_v hear_v give_v child_n to_o be_v under_o their_o command_n even_o in_o this_o particular_a to_o which_o we_o speak_v and_o these_o miscreant_n these_o rakehell_n say_v with_o those_o in_o psal_n 2.3_o let_v we_o break_v their_o bond_n asunder_o and_o cast_v away_o their_o cord_n from_o we_o second_o these_o undutiful_a child_n do_v violate_v the_o seven_o commandment_n wherein_o god_n say_v thou_o shall_v not_o commit_v adultery_n now_o this_o be_v a_o most_o undeniable_a truth_n that_o those_o who_o presume_v to_o step_v into_o the_o marriage_n condition_n in_o a_o

and_o if_o two_o be_v not_o lawful_o marry_v they_o be_v not_o man_n and_o wife_n than_o what_o they_o be_v you_o may_v easy_o determine_v you_o may_v say_v they_o be_v a_o couple_n of_o unclean_a
