she_o so_o abide_v after_o my_o judgement_n and_o i_o think_v very_o that_o i_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n therefore_o as_o touch_v the_o question_n that_o you_o ask_v whether_o christian_n man_n ought_v to_o marry_v their_o daughter_n be_v virgin_n or_o keep_v they_o at_o home_n in_o perpetual_a virginity_n as_o hallow_v unto_o christ_n that_o the_o same_o may_v in_o more_o freedom_n do_v he_o service_n albeit_o herein_o i_o have_v no_o commandment_n of_o god_n certain_o to_o answer_v you_o with_o yet_o have_v i_o counselle_n to_o gyve_v you_o such_o as_o i_o think_v best_a nor_o think_v i_o that_o you_o shall_v disdain_v my_o counsel_n since_o i_o have_v a_o apostle_n authority_n to_o who_o also_o god_n of_o his_o goodness_n have_v give_v albeit_o unworthy_a even_o as_o his_o will_n and_o pleasure_n be_v to_o gyve_v wholesome_a and_o faithful_a counsel_n not_o regard_v what_o be_v for_o myself_o profitable_a but_o what_o be_v nedeful_a and_o expedient_a for_o you_o for_o liberty_n sake_n than_o i_o judge_v it_o a_o thing_n to_o be_v wysh_v that_o a_o virgyn_v bind_v herself_o to_o none_o but_o to_o christ_n not_o because_o i_o think_v not_o matrimony_n a_o honest_a and_o a_o holy_a kind_n of_o life_n but_o because_o partly_o through_o alliance_n and_o partly_o through_o care_n of_o bring_v up_o child_n it_o be_v a_o state_n full_a of_o trouble_n and_o carefulness_n this_o necessity_n and_o as_o it_o be_v bondage_n he_o escape_v that_o abstayn_v from_o marriage_n better_a be_v it_o therefore_o to_o embrace_v this_o liberty_n if_o it_o be_v either_o in_o thy_o power_n or_o ieopardles_o for_o such_o as_o be_v already_o under_o the_o bond_n of_o matrimonye_n it_o be_v not_o in_o their_o power_n and_o for_o such_o as_o can_v not_o live_v chaste_a it_o be_v not_o without_o daungier_n and_o therefore_o if_o thou_o be_v already_o bind_v to_o a_o wife_n seek_v not_o under_o the_o pretence_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v divorce_v if_o thou_o be_v free_a seek_v not_o the_o yoke_n of_o matrimonye_n if_o thou_o have_v marry_v upon_o mistrust_n of_o thy_o strengthe_n repent_v the_o not_o thereof_o for_o thou_o haste_v not_o by_o so_o do_v sin_v thou_o haste_v in_o deed_n take_v upon_o the_o a_o careful_a enterprise_n but_o yet_o such_o as_o be_v lawful_a nor_o shall_v thou_o therefore_o to_o christ_n ward_n be_v the_o worse_a because_o thou_o haste_v a_o wife_n but_o thou_o shall_v be_v in_o more_o trouble_n and_o in_o more_o sin_v worldly_a care_n likewise_o if_o a_o virgin_n have_v rather_o to_o marry_v and_o govern_v a_o household_n there_o be_v none_o offence_n if_o she_o do_v so_o damage_n be_v there_o none_o to_o she_o but_o that_o by_o reason_n of_o household_n business_n she_o be_v in_o less_o freedom_n to_o study_v the_o scripture_n to_o pray_v and_o exercise_v other_o godly_a matter_n while_o therefore_o i_o geve_v you_o to_o both_o way_n free_a liberty_n i_o faver_v you_o two_o manner_n of_o way_n both_o provide_v
