,
[
(c)
](A01541-e1620-b)
(c)
Gen.

.
because
this
societie
it
is
the
first
that
euer
was
in
the
world
:
and
therefore
as
it
was

](A01541-e1630-b)
*

Hierodes

the
first
in
nature
,
so
it
is
the
first
here
in
order
:
the
Apostle
beginneth
first
with
that
which
in
course
of
nature
is
first
.
Secondly
,
because
this
is
[
(d)
](A01541-e1670-b)
(d)
Psal.
128.3
.
&
127.3
.
the
fountaine
from
whence
the
rest
flow
:
and
the
streames
can
not
flow
pure
and
cleare
vnlesse
the
fountaine
be
first
clensed
and
kept
cleane
.
The
Apostle
therefore
wisely
beginneth
at
the
Head-spring
,
that
a
good
course
being
setled
in
this
principall
societie
,
it
may
be
the
better
kept
and
continued
in
others
that
issue
and
flow
from
it
.
And
this
point
thus
obserued
may
first
serue
to
shew
what
is
one
maine
cause
of
much
neglect
of
dutie
in
many
families
,
in
children
towards
parents
,
in
seruants
toward
Master
and
Mistres
;
because
the
gouernours
are
not
carefull
of
mutuall
duties
betwixt
themselues
,
of
concord
and
agreement
the
one
with
the
other
,
of
loue
and
fidelitie
the
one
to
the
other
,
of
respectfull
and
regardfull
carriage
the
one
towards
the
other
.
And
so
neglect
of
dutie
and
difference
betweene
them
is
a
meanes
to
breed
a
contempt
of
one
or
both
in
those
that
should
be
guided
by
them
:
making
seruants
and
children
to
take
occasion
of
libertie
and
faile
in
their
duty
to
them
,
as
they
faile
in
dutie
either
to
other
.
Yea
it
is
a
iust
iudgement
oft
with
God
to
punish
the
one
by
the
other
:
as

rebellion
against
the
Creator
by
rebellion
in
the
creature
;
so
neglect
in
rulers
of
duties
enioyn●d
them
of
God
,
by
neglect
of
dutie
toward
them
in
those
that
should
be
ruled
by
them
.
Secondly
,
it
may
admonish
married
folke
,
that
are
heads
of
houses
,
if
they
desire
to
haue
things
go
wel'
in
the
family
that
they
haue
a
speciall
care
of
those
duties
that
God
hath
enioyned
them
in
regard
either
of
other
.
That
will
be
a
meanes
to
make
duties
passe
more
orderly
both
from
them
to
others
,
and
from
others
to
them
,
as
the
contrarie
prooueth
ordinarily
a
great
hindrance
to
either
.
For
as
in
a
clocke
or
a
watch
,
if
the
spring
be
faultie
,
the
wheeles
can
not
goe
,
or
if
they
mooue
not
either
other
,
the
hammer
can
not
strike
:
so
here
,
where
dutie
faileth
betweene
man
and
w●fe
it
causeth
a
neglect
of
all
other
good
duties
in
the
family
that
dependeth
vpon
them
,
yea

of
dutie
oft
euen
to
God
himselfe
in
them
.
And
therefore
married
persons
,
if
they
desire
to
haue
duties
performed
to
them
by
others
,
they
must
first
performe
what
is
fit
and
conuenient
either
to
other
:
remembring
that
the
due
performance
of
mutuall
duties
to
either
,
shall
both
make
them
fitter
for
the
performance
of
good
offices
to
others
,
and
others
readier
in
performance
of
theirs
vnto
them
.

passe
on
to
the
husbands
;
and
that
for
two
causes
.
First
to
shew
the
inferioritie
of
the
wife
in
regard
of
the
husband
;
for
we
may
obserue
that
the
Apostle
beginneth
euer
with
the
dutie
of
the
inferiour
:

then
the
Masters
:
and
so
first
the
wiues
then
the
Husbands
:
the
womans
first
,
then
the
Mans.
Secondly
,
to
shew
where
dutie
is
to
begin
,
on
the
wiues
part
;
it
is
to
begin
at
the
inferiour
and
so
to
ascend
to
the
superiour
.
For

*
Of●●ium

Loue

:
dutie
commeth
vpward
.
It
beginneth
with
the
inferiour
and
so
goeth
vp
to
the
superiour
.
The
wiues
dutie
is
as
the
base
or
ground
that
the
husband
dutie
is
built
vpon
.
It
is
that
that
must
draw
dutie
and
respect
from
the
husband
.
[
(a)
](A01541-e2010-b)
(a)
1.
Pet
3.7
.
Likewise
,
saith
the
Apostle
Peter
,
Let
the
men
liue
with
their
wiues
,
&c.
Hauing
spoken
of
the
wiues
behauiour
toward
her
husband
before
.
Not
that
it
is
lawfull
for
the
superiour
to
omit
his
dutie
,
if
the
inferiour
be
slacke
or
faultie
in
the
performance
of
hers
,
but
to
shew
in
course
of
nature
whither
should
begin
to
shew
dutie
.
And
this
first
serueth
to
admonish
the
wife
to
be
forward
in
performance
of
such
good
duties
as
God
requireth
on
her
part
;
and
not
to
straine
courtesie
and
stand
vpon
tearmes
,
as
to
say
,
Let
him
doe
what
he
should
doe
,
and
then
I
will
doe
what
is
befitting
me
.
Wouldest
thou
haue
him
to
doe
that
that
is
his
dutie
?
there
is
no
way
more
agreeable
to
the
word
and
will
of
God
,
more
consonant
to
the
course
and
order
of
nature
,
more
likely
to
prooue
successefull
and
effectuall
to
that
purpose
and
to
haue
a
blessing
of
God
goe
with
it
,
then
the
carefull
performance
of
thy
dutie
to
him
,
then
which
nothing
is
more
forcible
to
draw
dutie
from
him
.
In
a
word
the
wiues
maine
dutie
here
is
subiection
,
the
mans
principally
Loue
;

and
there
is
nothing
more
auaileable
with
a
good
nature
,
to
extract
from

a

Howsoeuer

(
being
that

is

the
better

)
yet
the
wife
is
in
duty
rather
to
seeke
reconcilement
:
(
as
the

impl●eth

Let
her

reconciled

her

,
and
as
we
see
it
held
in
all
estates
,
that
the
inferiour
doth
euer
seeke
and
sue
to
the
superiour
)
and
so
to
breake
of
first
on
her
side
that
vacancie
and
intermission
of
duties
that
thereupon
hath
ensued
.
And
thus
much
for
the
Order
:
we
come
now
to
the
Matter
.
Wherein
concerning
the
wiues
dutie
first
propounded
obserue
we
two
things
:
the
maine
dutie
,
and
the
manner
of
it
.
The
maine
dutie
,
on
the
wiues
part
is
Submission
;
or
Subiection
.
That
the
Apost●es
of
Christ

,

exact
euer
,
on
her
part
.
For
the
reason
whereof
in
generall
no
other
need
be
rendred
,
then
that
which
the
Apostle
Paul
propoundeth
in
this
place
,
that
it
is
a
matter
of
Comelinesse
and
Decency
.
[
(g)
](A01541-e2370-b)
(g)
1.
Cor.
14.33
.
God
is
the
God
as
of
order
and
peace
,
so
of
Comelinesse
and
Decencie
:
and
therefore
will
haue
[
(h)
](A01541-e2400-b)
(h)
1.
Cor.
14.40
.
All
things
done
in
decencie
and
in
order
:
but
that
the
wife
should
submit
and
subiect
her selfe
to
her
husband
,
it
is
a
thing
comely
,
and
the
contrary
vncomely
.
Which
point
shall
further
the
more
plainely
appeere
,
if
we
shall
consider
,
that
the
Husband
is
the
superiour
,
and
the
wife
the
inferiour
;
that
the
Husband
is
as
the
head
,
the
wife
as
the
body
or
the
rib
.
For
the
first
,
there
can
bee
no
ordinary
entercourse
and
commerce
or
conuersing
betweene
person
and
person
,
but
there
must
be
a
precedencie
on
the
one
part
,
and
a
yeelding
of
it
on
the
other
.
Now
where
they
be
equals
,
there
may
be
some
question
,
some
difficultie
,
whither
shall
haue
the
prioritie
,
and
they
take
it
commonly
,
as
it
falleth
out
,
or
by
turnes
.
But
where
there
is
an
apparent
inequalitie
,
there
it
is
without
question
that
the
inferiour
is
to
yeeld
to
the
superiour
.
Now
here
the
Husband
is
the
Superiour
,
and
the
wife
the
Inferiour
,
as
the
Apostle
else-where
prooueth
,
both
from
the
Creation
,
and
since
the
transgression
.

the
Creation

And

And

so

As
it
were
therefore
a
thing
prodigious
and
monstrous
in
nature
for
the
rib
in
the
body
to
stand
either
equall
with
or
aboue

:
so
wee
may
well
say
here
,
that

mankinde
woman
or
a
masterly
wi●e
is
euen
a
monster
in
nature
.
The
vse
of
this
point
may
bee
partly
for
Reprehension
,
and
partly
for
Admonition
.
For
reprehension
,
to
reprooue
and
taxe
those
women
that
affect
mastership
;
seeke
to
rule
and
ouerrule
those
,
whom
God
hath
not
committed
onely
,
but
submitted
and
subiected
them
vnto
;
and
so
violate
that
order
,
which
God
himselfe
hath
established
in
nature
:
a
course
that
bringeth
commonly
,
through
the
iust
iudgement
of
God
,
disgrace
and
contempt
vpon
both
parties
,
yea
vtter
ruine
o●t
of
the
family
and
of
their
whole
estate
.
For
howsoeuer
women
may
thinke
it
an
honour
to
them
,
yet
[

〈◊〉

〈◊〉
.
it
is
indeede
rather
a
dishonour
.
A
masterly
wife
is
as
much
despised
and
derided
for
taking
rule
ouer
her
husband
,
as
he
for
yeelding
it
to
her
;
and
that
not
onely
among
those
that
be
godly
and
religious
,
but
euen
among
those
that
be
but
meere
naturall
men
and
women
.
Yea
it
is
the
next
way
to
bring
all
to
wrack
.
For
[
*
](A01541-e3490-b)

〈◊〉

.
where
the
wi●e
maketh

against

there

nothing

(
which

is
the
ground
of

Peter
saith
of

here

they
know

This
is
not
to
cut
out
the
worke
according
to

rule
,

to
cut
out
the
worke
directly
against

Nothing
more
likely
to
breede

and
to
make
a

for
a

togither
,
as
if
they
would
make
him

of
admonishing
ought
any
more
;
but
hearing
it
with
mildnesse
,
and
hearkening
to
it
with
meekenesse
:
remembring
that
when
the
husband
admonisheth
,
God
admonisheth
in
him
;
and
hearkning
to
him
,
she
hearkeneth

trumpeters
owne
voice
is
nothing
so
loud
or
so
strong
,
as
the
sound
that
it
yeeldeth
when
it
passeth
through
the
trumpet
:
so
euery
action
in
the
family
shall
gaine
it selfe
more
weight
and
procure
more
them
both
more
credit
,
and
carry
more
authoritie
with
it
,
when
it
passeth
through
the
husbands
hands
and
is
ratified
and
sealed
as
it
were
with
his
seale
.
And
here
commeth
to
bee
condemned
the
custome
of
those
women
that
will
do
all
of
their
owne
head
,
that
will
haue
things
as
they
list
themselues
,
and
after
their
owne
minde
:
that
refuse
and
thinke
scorne
either
to
aske
of
their
husbands
aduice
what
to
doe
,
or
to
follow
it
in
such
things
as
they
are
aduised
vnto
.
And
so
disobedience
breedeth
a
contempt
of
the
husband
in
them
,
and
contempt
in
them
causeth
wrath
in
him
,
which
openeth
a
gap
to
many
grieuous
euils
.
Such
must
know
that
in
disobeying
them
they
disobey
God
in
them
and
prouoke
him
against
themselues
:
besides
that
they
procure
nothing
vnto
themselues
but
an
euill
report
abroad
,
and
an
vnquiet
life
at
home
.
And
therefore
a
wise
and
discreete
woman
ought
to
choose
rather
;
when
the
thing
enioyned
or
aduised
shall
import
some
difficultie
,
or
carry
with
it
some
inconueniencie
;
howsoeuer
she
may
in
good
tearmes
propound
it
by
way
of
excuse
,
yet
if
the
husband
shall
persist
in
his
minde
that
he
will
haue
it
so
;
she
ought
,
I
say
,
to
choose
rather
,
and
account
it
better
(
so
long
as
it
import
no
euill
)
to
buy
her
owne
peace
and
the
peace
of
a
good
conscience
,
to
purchase
peace
with
God
and
man
by
meeke
and
quiet
obseruance
,
then
to
breake
or
hazard
the
breach
of
either
by
her
peeuish
resistance
.
But
of
all
others
the
course
of
those
is
most
vaine
that
will
take
to
themselues
the
whole
commendation
of
things
done
by
mutuall
consent
and
aduice
:
and
so
seeke
to
honour
themselues
by
discrediting
their
husbands
whom
God
hath
commanded
them
to
honour
,
and
whose
honour
they
should
account
as
their
owne
.
For
when
God
saith
,
that
[
g
](A01541-e4910-b)

.
The
woman
is
the
glory
of
the
man
:
and
that
[
h

A
vertuous
or
industrious
wife
is
the
crowne
of
h●r
husband
;
he
implieth
that
the
wife
should
vse
all
the
gifts
and
graces
of
God
bestowed
on
her
for
the
honour
of
him
.
And
on
the
coutrary
she
is
the
contempt
and
dishonour
of
him
,
when
shee
striueth
and
contendeth
to
seeme
wiser
then
he
.
And
here
by
the
way
let
the
Husband
learne
his
dutie
in
part
,
ere
we
come
directly
vnto
it
.
For
if
the
wife
be
to
submit
and
to
subiect
her selfe
vnto
him
;
it
to
be
admonished
by
him
and
to
take
aduice
of
him
:
then
is
he
to
gouerne
and
admonish
,
to
giue
counsell
and
aduice
.
And
therefore
considering
that
he
is
called
to
be
a
guide
to
his
wife
)
he
must
labour
for
holy
wisedome
and
spirituall
discretion
,
that
hee
may
be
fit
and
able
to
guide
and
gouerne
in
good
manner
and
to
good
purpose
.
And
hee
had
neede
be
wise
and
discreete
himselfe
,
that
is
to
be
guide
to
another
.
Otherwise
as
the
Apostle
,
[
e
](A01541-e4990-b)
e
1

3.5
.
Prov.
2.17
.
How
is
he
fit
to
gouerne
Gods
house
that
can
not
gouerne
well
his
owne
house
,
so
how
shal
he
be
fit
to
guide
another
,
that
is
not
able
to
guide
himselfe
?
In
regard
whereof
parents
also
,
as
they
must
not
be
ouerhasty
to
ioyne
their
children
in
that
estate
,
ere
they
be
come
to
some
staiednesse
:
So
they
must
be
carefull
,
(
especially
where
they
perceiue
some
want
that
way
,
)
to
further
them
with
all
conuenient
helps
in
that
kinde
:
that
so
by
their
diligent
care
and
furtherance
that
may
be
supplyed
that
is
defectiue
on
their
parts
.
Now
this
then
condemneth
the
preposterous
practise
of
some
men
,
that
in
a
kinde
either
of
foolish
statelinesse
or
fond
remissenesse
will
seeme
to
referre

the
weaker
,
without
informing
or
acquainting
them
with
their
minde
,
in
what
manner
they
wish
or
thinke
fit
to
haue
things
ordered
in
the
family
;
and
yet
will
storme
and
take
on
,
or
grow
pettish
and
impatient
,
if
euerything
bee
not
done
to
their
owne
minde
.
Which
as
it
breedeth
much
disquiet
&
distraction
in
the
wiues
minde
,
when
shee
knoweth
not
what
wil●
please
,
but
must
goe
all
by
guesse
so
it
taketh
away
that
alacritie
and
cheere●uln●sse
that
should
be
in
performance
of
such
duties
,
and
maketh
her
to
goe
about
her
businesse
with
hanging
of
the
wings
;
since
it
is
vncertaine
,
when
shee
hath
taken
all
possible
paines
,
and
done
her
best
endeauour
,
how
in
the
end
it
will
be
accepted
.
As
also
it
condemneth
such
peeuish
and
froward
persons
,
as
if
anything
be
demanded
of
them
,
or
their
aduice
asked
in
ought
,
are
ready
by

by
to
grow
into
heate

,
to
complaine

the
folly
and
vnwisenesse
of

,
that
know

For

As

the

in
the
family
many
times
are
to
bee
done
,
not
for
the
best
or
the
wisest
simply
,
but
after
the
husbands
best
liking
and
to
his
best
contentment
.
And
therefore
a
wise
and
discreete
husband
should
rather
reioyce
that
his
wife
is
so
carefull
to
know
his
minde
,
and
to
doe
euery
thing
to
his
minde
,
then
contemne
her
or
miscall
her
for
her
carefulnesse
in
that
kinde
.
The
third
and
last
dutie
on

part
is
Assistance
.
For
she
was
made
to
be
[

an
Helper
or
an
assistant
to
her

:
and
that
especially
in
two
kinds
,
in
his
Trauels
,
and
in
his

.
First
in

labour
and
in

;
[

in
domesticall

,
things
especially
within
the
house
.
In
regard
whereof
the
Apostle
Paul
willeth
that
women
be
house-keepers
,
or
keepers
at

,
as
we
call

:
and

Of

admonishing
them
,
as

assigning

.
Thirdly
,
the

that
they
are

the
practise
of
such
wiues
as
are
gadders

;
least
acquainted

so

so
shee
is
a
foole
that
thus
pulleth
the
house
downe
with

owne

Secondly
,
the
wife
is
to
be
an
assistant
and

a
yoke
fellow
to

,
as
in

and

,
so
in

and
crosses
,
if
any
befall
〈◊〉
;
(
as
no

life
lightly
is
free
from
them
:
[

〈…〉
No

and
that
two

By
bearing

with

.
And
by
being
a
comfort
vnto
him
.
First
,
by
bearing
part
with
him
.
For
whereas
married
persons
are
subiect
to
many
more
crosses
and
casualties
then
those
that
leade
a
single
life
,
in
regard
their
charge
is
the
greater
:
howsoeuer
the
women
themselues
are
not
exposed
to
so
many
personall
encumbrances
as
men
,
because
their
life
is
more
priuate
:
Yet
,
as
the
Apostle
saith
of
the
faithfull
Christians
,
that
they
were

fellow-partners
with
him
in
his
afflictions
,
so
ought
the
wife
to
bee
with
the
husband
in
those
afflictions
that
befall
him
.
And
surely
if
all
Christians
in
generall
,
much
more
married
folkes
in
speciall
ought
to

If

all

must
haue
a

because

Contrary
whereunto
is
the
practise
of
those
wiues
that
leaue
and
forsake
their
husbands
when
they
are
fallen
into
troubles
:
are
like
swallowes
and
other
sommer-birds
,
content
to
reape
and
enioy
with
them
,
the
pleasant
fruits
of
prosperitie
,
but
vnwilling
to
beare
and
endure
with
them
the
bitter
brunt
and
blasts
of
aduersitie
;
care
not
,
nor
regard
what
their
husbands
do
,
or
what
becomes
of
them
,
what
hardnesse
they
endure
,
what
miserie
they
abide
,
so
long
as
by
helpe
of
friends
or
other
prouisions
they
are
able
themselues
,
to
shift
for
themselues

Very
vnnaturall
are

The
like
is
to
be
said
of
the
practise
of
such
as
are
a
meanes
themselues
to
bring
their
husbands
into
decay
and
distresse
,
and
so
procure
trouble
to
them
,
by
their
inordinate
courses
and
excessiue
expences
;
whereby
they
cast
them
behind
hand
,
and
that
to
their
vtter
ouerthrow
and
vndoing
oft
times
:
and
so
in
stead
of
helping
to
beare
his
burden
with
him
,
are
a
meanes
to
bring
such
a
burden
vpon
him
,
as
neither
of
them
both
is
well
able
to
beare
.
Secondly
,
by
being
a
cheerer
and
a
comforter
;
a
meanes
of
comfort
and
cheerefulnesse
to
him
:

one
of
the
ancients
compareth
not
amisse
an
euill
and
a
guilty
conscience
to
an

fellow
:
For
that
is
common
to
either
,
(
then
which
what
can
bee
more
grie●ous
?
)
that
that
prooueth
with
a
man
the
greatest
crosse
,
that
should
be
a
comfort
to
him
against
other
crosses
.
Such
women
forget
or
at
least
are
farre
from
that
,
which
Salomon
saith
of
a
good
wife
,
[
s
](A01541-e6570-b)
s
Prov.
31.12
.
Shee
will
doe
her
husband
good
,
and
not
euill
,
all
the
daies
of
her
life
:
that
which
euery
good
woman
vndoubtedly
will
endeauour
her selfe
vnto
.
Hitherto
we
haue
spoken
of
the
Maine
dutie
on
the
wiues
part
,
namely
,
Submission
or
Subiection
,
togither
with
the
particulars
or
at
least
the
pr●ncipall
of
those
that
thence
issue
.
We
come
now
to
the
manner
of
the
performance
of
all
the
former
,
and
that
is
,
saith
our
Apostle
,
In
the
Lord
:
a
phrase
vsed
by
the
Apostle
[
a
](A01541-e6670-b)
a
Eph.
6.1
.
1
Cor.
7.39
.
in
the
like
case
else-where
:
and
it
may
be
taken
two
waies
,
as
a
note
of
Direction
,
or
as
a
note
of
Limitation
.
1.
As
a
note
of
direction
,
prescribing
the
ground
and
manner
of
this
submission
;
that
it
bee
done
in
obedience
of
God
and
the
commandement
of
God
,
in
conscience
of
the
order
and
ordinance
of
God
.
2.
As
a
note
of
limitation
,
describing
the
bounds
and
limits
of
this
submission
,
assistance
,
reuerence
,
and
obedience
;
that
it
extend
not
it selfe
to
anything
against
the
will
and
word
of
God
.
In
the
former
sense
it
seemeth
to
be
vsed
by
the
Apostle
,
where
[
b
](A01541-e6750-b)
b
Eph.
6
1.
he
speaketh
of
childrens
dutie
;
in
the
latter
,
[
c
](A01541-e6770-b)
c
1
Cor.
7.39
.
where
he
applieth
it
to
widdowes
marriage
.
And
the
latter
followeth
vpon
the
former
.
For
a
man
can
not
doe
ought
against
Gods
will
or
word
out
of
obedience
to
his
will
and
word
:
it
implieth
a
manifest
contradiction
.
And
therefore
whatsoeuer
is
done
in
obedience
to
Gods
will
must
needs
so
farre
forth
be
done
according
to
,
and
not
against
his
word
or
will
.
The
former
I
take
here
to
be
the
direct
meaning
of
the
words
;
the
latter
by
way
of
consequence
is
deduced
from
it
.
And
so
this
branch
affordeth
two
points
concerning
the
dutie
here
enioyned
.
First
,
that
this
Submission
for
the
ground
of
it
must
be
a
godly
,
a
religious
,
a
conscionable
submission
;
perfor●ed
not
for
wor●dly
respects
,
or
for
[
d
](A01541-e6830-b)
d
1
Pet.
3.6
.
feare
of
wrath
,
but
as
[
e
](A01541-e6850-b)
e
Rom.
13.
●
.
the
Apostle
saith
of
good
subiects
,
for
conscience
sake
;
in
conscience
of
Gods
ordinance
,
and
in
obedience
to
Gods
command
.
For
first
,
it
is
[
f
](A01541-e6880-b)
f
1
Tim.
4.8
.
Godlinesse
alone
that
hath
the
promises
both
of
this
life
and
the
life
to
come
:
and
therefore
,
there
is
no
reward
for
ought
that
proceedeth
not
from
it
.
Secondly
;
as
Luther
saith
well
that
[
*
](A01541-e6930-b)
*
Promo
pracep
.
to
reli
quorum
omni●on
observantia
pracip●tur
:
Luther
.
the
first
commandement
in
the
Decalogue
comprehendeth
the
whole
:
because
therein
is
the
bond
that
bindeth
vs
to
the
obedience
of
the
whole
:
so
it
is
no
lesse
true
that
the
Apostle
Iames
telleth
vs
that
[
g
](A01541-e6970-b)
g

1.27
.
religion
or
godlinesse
,
which
is
the
ground
and
[

*

.
bond
of
all
obedience
,
is
to
be
exercised
and
practised
through
the
whole
course
of
our
liues
:
that
as
all
ciuill
duties
are
to
[
h
](A01541-e7020-b)
h
1
Cor.
16.14
.
proceede
from
loue
vnto
man
,
so
they
are
likewise
to
be
done
in
obedience
to
God
.
Which
point
serueth
,
First
to
shew
a
difference
betweene
a
godly
and
a
worldly
wise
,
a
Christian
woman
&
an
heathen
,
a
faithfull
and
an
infidel
.
For
an
heathen
woman
may
doe
all
outward
duties
that
a
Christian
wife
doth
,
out
of
a
naturall
or
carnall
loue
to
her
husband
,
or
out
of
a
desire
of
her
owne
ease
and
quiet
that
dependeth
thereupon
,
or
out
of
other
naturall
and
ciuill
respects
,
as
feare
of
anger
at
home
,
and
of
euill
report
abroad
:
But
the
Christian
wife
doth
all
on
a
further
ground
;
(
though
these
and
the
like
considerations
also
may
make
her
the
more
carefull
:
)
out
of
obedience
to
God
and
the
will
and
word
of
God
;
out
of
a
desire
to
please
God
,
&
to
approue
her self
&
her
courses
vnto
God
.
As
the
heathen
subiect
serueth
God
for
his
Prince
,
the
Christian
subiect
serueth
his
prince
for
God
:
so
the
heathen
wife
obeieth
God
but
for
man
,
whereas
the
Christian
wise
obeyeth
her
husband
for
God
.
Againe
it
may
teach
women
how
to
behaue
themselues
in
these
duties
that
they
may
therby
gaine
as
well
fauor
with
God
,
as
loue
with
their
husbands
at
home
,
and
a
good
report
abroad
:
if
they
shall
do
all
in
obedience
of
God
,
if
they
shall
do
all
[
a
](A01541-e7050-b)
a
Eph
,
5.22
.
as
vnto
God
:
as
a

.
serueth
God
and
not
man
,
so
submitting
themselues
to
God
,
not
to
man
:
while
they
regard
God
in
their
husbands
,
as
[
c
](A01541-e7090-b)
c
Eph.
65.6
.

,

he
doth
God
in

,
and
so
doe
all
[

](A01541-e7100-b)
d

5.22
,
&
6.5
.
as
vnto

,
because
they
do
[

](A01541-e7110-b)
e
Colos
3.22
.
all
for
God
,
and
for
conscience
of
God
.
Else
though
they
performe
all
outward
duties
,
they
go
no
further
then
heathen
:
if
they
do
not
so
much
,
they
come
short
of
them
:
and
[
f
](A01541-e7120-b)
f

5.
●●
.
if
they
expect
&
desire
to
be
accepted
with
God
,
they
must
go
beyond
them
they
must
not
onely
do
all
that
they
doe
;
but
do
it
[

as
they
should
do
:
do
all
for

,
&
then
they
doe
it
to
God
.
For
as
[

they
releeue

in
the
poore
,
when
they
releeue
them
for
Christ
:
so
they
obey
Christ
in
their
husbands
,
when
they
obey
them
for
Christ
.
Not
regard
so
much
what
their
husbands
deserue
from
them
,
as
what
God
requireth
of
them
:
and
as
Christian
subiects
submit

to
good
gouernours
as
vnto

,
to
euill
gouernours
for
God
,
or
rather
vnto
either
of
them
both
as
vnto
God
and
in
God
:
so
submit
themselues
to
their
husbands
bee
they
good
or
badde
,
deserue
they
well
or
euill
of
them
,
as
for
God
,
and
in
God
,
and
vnto
God
,
in
regard
of
the
precept
and
enioynment
of
God
.
[
h
](A01541-e7290-b)
h
Ephes.
5.22
.
So
doing
,
as
the
Apostle
saith
,
[
i
](A01541-e7300-b)
i
1.
Tim.
●
.
15
.
they
shall
be
s●ued
by
child-bearing
,
so
they
shall
be
saued
by
Christian
submission
and
obedience
.
As
[
k
](A01541-e7320-b)
k
Colos.
3.24.23
.
the
seruant
that
serueth
not
man
but
the
Lord
,
shall
from
the
Lord
receiue
the
inhe●●tance
of
a
sonne
:
so
the
woman
that
submitteth
her selfe
to
her
husband
for
God
,
shall
for
such
her
submission
be
eternally
rewarded
of
God
.
And
this
withall
may
againe
serue
well
to
take
away
that
obiection
of
faultie
performance
on
the
other
part
:
If
he
doe
not
his
dutie
to
me
,
why
should
I
doe
min●
to
him
?
True
:
if
thou
oughtest
it
to
him
onely
,
or
principal●'y
to
him
.
But
it
is
in
the
Lord
,
and
for
him
that
this
dutie
is
required
of
thee
.
Him
thou
owest
it
vnto
,
whither
thy
husband
doe
his
or
no
;
w
hither
he
deserue
it
,
or
no
,
at
thine
hands
.
Neither
shall
his
faultinesse
excuse
thy
fault
,
if
thou
shalt
refuse
to
performe
what
God
hath
imposed
on
thee
,
and
so
shalt
faile
in
thy
duty
that
thou
owest
vnto
God
,
because
man
faileth
in
his
,
that
he
likewise
oweth
vnto
God
,
whither
thou
doest
thine
,
or
no
,
to
him
.
Secondly
this
Submission
,
for
the
extent
of
it
,
must
not
bee
in
ought
against
God
.
And
therefore
when
the
Apostle
maketh
it
generall
,
[
l
](A01541-e7400-b)
l
Eph.
●
.
24
.
in
all
thing●
;
it
must
bee
conceiued
by
way
of
opposition
betweene
her
owne
will
and
her
husbands
will
;
(
as
[
m

.
33
.
the
Apostle
is
said
to
please
all
men
in
all
things
,
that
is
,
euen
to
the
displeasing
of
himselfe
:

not
regarding
his
owne
profite
,
but
respecting
their
pleasure
:
)
not
by
way
of
opposition
betweene
Gods
will
and
mans
will
.
For
when
they
crosse
,
[
o
](A01541-e7460-b)
o
Act.
5.19
.
God
is
rather
to
be
obeyed
then
man
:
his
will
is
rather
to
be
regarded
then
mans
will
And
the
reason
is
apparent
:
for
-
1.
This
submission
is
Gods
ord●nance
;
and
Gods
ordinance
cannot
be
against
God
,
but
for
God
.
-
2.
The
husbands
power
,
as
[
p
](A01541-e7520-b)
p
Rom.
13
1.
of
all
superiours
,
is
subordinate
to
Gods
power
:
and
the
subordinate
power
ought
euer
to
yeeld
to
the
supreme
power
.
And
therefore
first
let
men
looke
vnto
it
and
take
heede
how
they
take
vpon
them
to
aduise
,
perswade
,
induce
or
vrge
their
wiues
to
ought
against
God
and
godlinesse
or
good
conscience
.
For
by
so
doing
they
shall
but
abuse
their
power
and
place
,
and
lessen
their
authoritie
and
credite
,
as
euery
one
doth
that
goeth
beyond
the
bounds
and
limits
of
his
office
.
As
also
women
must
know
that
it
shall
be
no
sufficient
excuse
for
them
,
if
they
shall
suffer
themselues
to
be
led
by
their
husbands
vnto
ought
that
is
euill
:
no
more
then
it
was
for
[

to

the
woman
is
the
weaker
.
But
they
must
consider
who
it
is
from
whom
the
man
hath
his
right
,
his
power
,
and
his
place
,
euen
he
that
hath
power
equally
ouer
either
,
and
will
vndoubtedly
punish
either
,
if
either
the
one
shall
perswade
,
or
the
other
vpon
perswasion
yeeld
to
ought
against
his
will
.
Hitherto

as
the
loue
of

to

,
a
thing
grounded

as
is
also
the
other
:
in

Now
as
things
often
inculcated
should
make
vs
more
ca
refull
:
so
things
taken
for
granted
should
make
vs
more
fearefull
.
As
the
husband
therefore
must
f
see
to
it
that
he
loue
his
wife
,
because
he
is
so
oft
called
vpon
for
it
:
so
the
wife
must
take
heede
how
she
bee
faultie
and
defectiue
that
way
,
when
God
taketh
it
as
graunted
;
and
therefore
accounteth
them
as
monsters
in
nature
that
are
wanting
in
it
;
as
those
that
want
bowels
of
loue
toward
their
owne
birth
.
Secondly
,
if
a
man
be
bound
to
loue
his
wife
in
this
sort
,
then
men
must
take
heed
how
they
match
with
those
whom
they
cannot
thus
loue
and
affect
;
whom
they
cannot
thus
linke
their
hearts
and
affections
vnto
.

is

foolishly
into
a
fearefull
snare
,
which
they
are
neuer
able
after
to
wind
themselues
out
of

.
Men
and
women
therefore
are
to
be
admonished
here
that
they
looke
ere
they
leape
:
and
that
they
remember
that

And
those
that

themselues
in

kind
,
they
must
now
striue
euen
to
enforce
their

craue

Thirdly
,
If
the
husband
must
in
this
manner
loue
his
wife
,
then
must
hee
draw
home
his
affections
from
louing
any
other
in
that
sort
.
For
if
such
a
singularitie
of
loue
be
here

then
it
can

that

two

:
so
here
there
ought
not
to
be
two

of
two
husbands
,
because
two
can
not
haue
the
principalitie
&
chiefety
in
our
loue
;
or
rather
,
because
such
loue
as
this
is
,
is
or
ought
to
be
peculiar
and
proper
to
one
:
But
the
branches
and
streames
of
loue
are

of

the

of
a

of
admitting

He
must
know
that
that
which
was
lawfull
for

is
now
no
more
lawfull

Not
that
any

but
that
such
desire
was
not

:
as
is
sinfull
in

now
,
because
it
is
by
God
now
determined

Fourthly
,
let
the

take
heede
of
being

in

yet
their
loue
is
to
be
no

,
rather
to
encrease
then
decrease
;
as
wee
see
it
is
in

towards
children

who
the

they

the

they
affect

vpon

occasions

that
there
bee

And
surely
where

is

there
griefe
will
be
that
occasions
of
long

should
be
offered
.
And
where
griefe
is
that
such
occasions
though
necessary
should
be
offered
;
there
will
be
no
taking
of
occasions
,
but
such
as
are
necessarily

commeth

bee

the
foolish
and
preposterous

that
is
taken
by
diuers
parents
,
who

their

Where
they
are
also
to
be
taxed
that
are
so
farre
from

concealing
the
infirmities
of
their
wiues
,
that
they
delight
in
nothing
more
then
in
blasing
them
abroad

that
euen
to

Had
they
some
loathsome
soare
about

they
would
be

it

vnlesse
it
were
to

to
the
Surgion

and
surely
as
loath
would
they
be
to

their

infirmities
,
did
they
esteeme
them
as
their

if
,
as
loue
requires
they
should
,
they
held
their
wiues
reputation
as

them
as
their
owne
,

they
were
as

they

we

whatso●uer
we
doe
,
saith
the
Apostle
,
we
must
do
all
to
Gods
glory
.
Now
then
are
things
done
to
Gods
glory
,
when
they
are
referred
to
a
spirituall
end
,
to
a
further
end
then
the
fruition
of
some
corporall
good
.
And
to
here
married
persons
then
loue
and
liue
togither
to
the
glory
of
God
,
when
they
haue
a
further
end
of
their
mutuall
conuersation
,
But
alas
how
approue
they
themselues
in
this
kind
and
their
carriage
in
this
estate
vnto
God
,
that
neuer
dreame
once
of
this
ayme
,
neuer
ayme
once
at
this
end
;
neuer
haue
once
any
thought
at
all
tending
this
way
●
k
He
that
regardeth
not
the
temporall
good
of
his
family
,
is
worse
then
an
infidel
:
he
that
goeth
no
●u●ther
,
is
no
better
.
So
those
maried
persons
that
liue
togither
vntowardly
,
discontentedly
,
impatiently
,
in
gal
&
bitternes
,
in
dissention
&
discord
,
in
want
of
mutuall
and
natural
loue
,
refusing
to
be
helpful
either
to
other
in
the
things
of
this
life
,
are
worse
then
infidels
.
On
the
other
side
those
that
bee
neuer
so
carefull
of
performing
the
former
duties
and
of
shunning
and
auoiding
the
contrary
eui●s
,
but
haue
no
care
and
conscience
of
the
helping
forward
and
furthering
either
other
in
the
good
waies
of
God
,
they
are
no
better
then
infidels
,
they
goe
no
further
then
they
.
In
a
word
to
conclude
,
if
Christian
m●n
are
to
l
obserue
one
another
,
that
they
may
wh●t
on
either
oth●r
to
godlinesse
and
good
workes
:
then
much
more
should
Christian
man
&
wife
so
doe
:
that
hauing
liued
togither
for
a
time
as
m
copartners
in
grace
here
,
they
may
reigne
togither
for
euer
as
co-heires
in
glory
hereafter
