forget
also
thine

and

shall
the

TWo
things
are
first
brieflie
to
bee
touched
,
before
I
descend
to
the
content
of
these
verses
:
of
the
author
or
writer
of
this
Psalme
,
and
of
the
matter
:
who
speaketh
here
,
and
of
what
:
my
heart
will
vtter
a
good
word
:

Which
they
vnderstand

4.
Origen
vnderstandeth
of
the
swift
preaching
of
Christ
,
who
taught
but
a
short
time
in
earth
,
&
vniuersus
orbit
praedicatione
eius
impletur
;
and
all
the
world
is
filled
with
his
preaching
:
Hierome
giueth
this
sense
,
Christus
euangelij
strictum
sermonem
exarauit
in
tabulis
cordis
,
Christ
did
graue
the
compendious
speach
of
the
Gospel
,
in
the
tables
of
the
hart
▪
but
neither
of
these
opinions
can
stand
,
because
of
these
words
,
vers.
7.
God
,
euen
thy
God
hath
anointed
thee
with
the
oyle
of
gladnes
aboue
thy
fellowes
:
for
this
neither
the
Father
can
vtter
of
his
Son
,
nor
Christ
the
Son
of
himselfe
.
accingere
(
inquit
Dauid
)
ense
,
&c.
be
girded
with
a
sword
vpon
thy
thigh
,
saith
Dauid
:
so
also
Isychius
:
Dauid
patrem
vngentem
dixit
:
Dauid
calleth
the
Father
the
anointer
,
&c.
But
the
Prophet
speaketh
of
a
Kings
daughter
which
should
be
brought
vnto
the
King
,
vers.
14.
now
in
Dauids
time
Salomon
his
son
was
not
married
to
Pharaoh
the
King
of
Egypts
daughter
:
and
he
speaketh
not
of
himselfe
,
as
the
words
shew
.
4.
Their
opinion
then
is
rather
to
bee
receiued
,
that
thinke
this
Psalme
to
haue
been
endited
by
the
sonnes
of
Korah
,
or
some
one
of
them
,
as
Lyranus
:
or
some
other
Prophet
that
is
not
named
,
as
diuers
of
the
Psalmes
are
by
such
composed
.
2.
Now
concerning
the
argument
,
and
matter
of
the
Psalme
,
the
question
is
,
whether
it
onely
speake
of
Christ
,
and
of
his
spirituall
marriage
with
the
Church
:
as
most
of
the
ancient
writers
doe
applie

whether

,
when
he
tooke
Bathsheba
to

,
or
vnder

,

with

should
be

:
or

of

,
when
he
maried
Queene

:
as
diuers
of
the
Rabbines
entertaine
these
seuerall
opinions
:
or
whether
this
Psalme
historicallie
describe
the
marriage
betweene
Salomon
and
the
King
of
Egypts
daughter
,
Thy
throne
O
God
is
for
euer
and

:
which
place
the
Apostle
onely
applieth
to
Christ
,
Heb.
1.
8.
and
somewhat
also
here
is
historically
and
literally
to
be
vnderstood
,
as
where
mention
is
made
v.
8.
of
Mirrh
,
Aloes
,
and
Cassia
,
of
the
yuorie
palaces
,
v.

,
or
temples
,
of
the
daughter
of
Tyrus
:
so
that
here
we
may
say
with
Tertullian
of
the
like
place
:
Haec
aut
nega
scripta
,
aut
quis

vt
non
putes
accipienda
,
quemadmodum
scripta
sunt
,
maxime

&
parabolis
,
sed
in
definitionib
.
&
certis
&
simplicib
.
habent
sensum
.
aduers.
prax
.
Either
denie
these
things
to
be
written
,
or
who
art
thou
,
not
to
think
that
they
are
so
to
be
taken
as
they
are
written
,
which
haue
a
readie
and
plaine
sense
,
not
in
allegories
and
parables
,
but
in
plaine
definitions
?
will
I
force
the
Scripture
,
and
so
bee
thought
to
loue
Christ
,
as
I
should
take
away
the
truth
of
the
history
:
as
Hierome
saith
:
Although
these
things
haue
a
spirituall
sense
,
yet
the
veritie
of
the
historie
remaining
,
the
spirituall
sense
is
to
be
reteined
,
&c.
3.
This
then
is
the
order
of
the
Psalme
:
In
the
second
part
,
first
,
the
dutie
of
the
Bride
is
prescribed
,
vers.
10.
11.
with
the
effect
thereof
,
so
shall
the
King
haue
pleasure
in
thy
beauty
.
Secondly
,
her
glory
is
described
1.
by
the
subiection
of
some
,
and
their
presents
,
vers.
12.
Secondly
,
by
her
apparrell
,
and
ornaments
,
vers.
13.
Thirdlie
,
by
her
companie
and
attendants
,
vers.
14.
Fourthly
,
by
her
progresse
,
and
other
complements
,
vers.
15.
Fifthly
,
by
her
issue
and
incrementes
,
vers.
16.
The
dutie
of
the
Spouse
here
set
foorth
is
threefold
:
her
loyall
obedience
in
harkening
,
vers.
10.
her
faithfull
remembrance
of
her
spouse
in
forgetting
her
fathers
house
,
vers.
10.
her
seemely
reuerence
in
doing
obeysance
vnto
her
Lord
,
vers.
11.
Hearken
O
daughter
,
and
consider
,
incline
thine
eare
.
4.
The
first
thing
,
Wiues
submit
your selues
vnto
your
husbands
,
Ephes
,
5.
22.
it
is
their
dutie
,
they
must
doe
it
,
as
to
the
Lord
:
and
it
is
a
comely
thing
as
it
is
comely
in
the
Lord
,
Coloss.
3.
18.
it
is
both
profitable
and
seemely
,
or
pleasant
,
that
there
should
bee
amitie
and
concord
betweene
the
man
and
wife
:
as
it
is
in
the
Psalme
:
ecce
quam
bonum
&
iucundum
:
Behold
how
good
and
pleasant
a
thing
it
is
brethren
to
dwell
together
in
vnity
,
Psalm
.
133.
1.
many
things
are
good
and
profitable
,
but
not
pleasant
,
as
affliction
and
chasticement
,
which
at
the
first
seemeth
not
to
be
ioyous
,
but
grieuous
,
but
afterward
it
bringeth
the
quiet
fruit
of
righteousnesse
,
Heb.
12.
11.
But
this
domestical
concord
,
is
both
fruitful
&
delightful
,
profitable
and
amiable
,
it
bringeth
gaine
without
paine
.
This
was
imposed
as
a
perpetual
law
in
the
beginning
vpon
we
man
,
Thy
desire
shall
be
subiect
to
thine
husband
,
and
he
shall
rule
ouer
thee
,
Genes.
3.
16.
Those
women
then
inuert
the
order
of
nature
,
which
denie
subiection
to
their
husbands
.
5.
Leah
and
Rachel
were
obediente
vnto
Iacob
,
6.
The
man
is
the
womans
head
,
as
wine
mingled
with
water
,
though
the
water
be
the
greatest
part
,
is
called
wine
still
:
and
as
where
two
voices
concurre
together
in
singing
,
the
tune
or
song
is
carried
chiefly
by
the
base
and
greater
voice
:
so
should
the
man
in
domesticall
affaires
beare
the
chiefest
stroke
,
quis
melius
Deo
suo
canet
:
Psalmes
and
Hymnes
giue
a
sound
betweene
two
,
and
they
striue
,
who
should
sing
best
vnto
God
.
And
againe
,
a
little
further
to
insist
in
this
similitude
,
a
woman
should
herein
be
like
vnto
a
Musitian
,
which
not
pleasing
himselfe
in
his
owne
voice
,
woman
speake
by
an
others
(
that
is
her
husbands
)
tongue
,
as
a
piper
by
his
instrument
:
which
is
the
Apostles
precept
to
women
,
not
to
speak
in
the
congregation
,
that
is
in
the
presence
of
men
.
7.
But
though
obedience
be
required
in
wiues
,
yet
it
is
with
a
double
limitation
:
both
for
the
matter
,
wherein
,
and
the
manner
how
this
obedience
should
be
performed
:
She
that
is
setled
in
the
married
state
,
must
not
so
much
please
him
that
is
married
,
as
him
that
instituted
marriage
:
Againe
for
the
manner
:
the
subiection
of
the
wife
must
not
be
slauish
,
or
seruile
,
as
the
Turkes
and
Moores
at
this
day
vse
their
wiues
as
their
slaues
,
but
it
must
be
sociable
and
amiable
.
God
made
woman
to
bee
helping
vnto
man
.
Gen.
2.
18.
not
to
be
an
vnderling
,
to
be
a
guide
in
the
house
to
saue
,
not
to
be
a
drudge
and
a
slaue
:
Ambrose
heereof
writeth
well
:
Mulier
deferat
non
seruiat
,
regendam
sepraebeat
non
co●rcen●m
,
indigna
est
coning
to
,
quae
digna
est
iurgio
:
The
woman
must
obserue
,
not
serue
;
and
yeeld
her selfe
to
be
ruled
,
not
constrained
,
shee
is
not
meet
for
marriage
bedding
,
that
hath
neede
of
continuall
chiding
:
Neither
let
the
woman
think
,
that
in
this
manner
to
be
in
subiection
is
an
hard
condition
,
but
it
is
rather
a
benefit
for
the
weaker
vessell
to
haue
a
stronger
to
defend
her
,
and
the
more
simple
to
haue
a
wiser
to
direct
her
:
the
guide
of
her
youth
,
Prouerbs
.
2.
17.
Like
as
he
obserueth
well
,
that
mothers
loue
their
sonnes
best
,
as
most
able
to
helpe
them
,
and
Fathers
their
daughters
,
as
most
needing
their
helpe
:
So
women
should
yeeld
to
their
husbands
obedience
,
because
of
their
protection
and
defence
.
This
kind
of
seruice
is
a
freedome
rather
then
a
thraldome
;
a
liberty
,
not
a
captiuity
:
Haec
seruitus
Dei
donum
est
,
et
in
loco
benedictionis
Isaac
eam
dedit
Esau.
vt
seruiret
fratri
suo
,
benedictionem
enim
poscebat
a
patre
.
This
kinde
of
seruice
,
is
the
gift
of
God
,
and
Isaac
gaue
this
as
a
blessing
to
Esau
,
to
serue
his
brother
,
for
hee
asked
a
blessing
of
his
Father
.
Wiues
then
must
not
bee
vsed
as
hirelings
and
mercenaries
,
but
as
fellowes
&
partners
;
nor
commanded
imperiously
as
seruants
,
but
entreated
louingly
as
ioynt
tenants
:
Euen
the
heathen
Romane
Emperours
thought
it
reasonable
,
that
such
a
louing
fellowship
should
be
betweene
man
and
wife
,
as
may
appeare
by
their
fauourable
Lawes
made
in
that
behalfe
:
as
if
a
man
married
his
maide
,
shee
is
not
to
bee
compelled
to
doe
thy
drudgerie
.
And
againe
,
against
the
wife
of
him
that
is
dead
,
the
heyres
cannot
haue
an
action
for
wasting
of
the
inheritance
,
the
reason
of
the
law
is
,
the
wife
is
taken
as
a
partner
both
of
humane
things
,
and
of
the
Diuine
house
:
that
is
a
partaker
of
humane
society
and
fellowship
,
and
of
diuine
community
and
worship
.
8.
Now
further
,
as
the
wife
is
bound
to
listen
to
her
husband
,
as
her
domestical
instructer
;
so
the
husband
is
to
giue
care
also
to
his
wife
as
a
mutuall
comforter
:
true
it
is
,
that
where
the
wife
aduiseth
yll
,
her
speech
is
to
bee
reiected
,
as
Iob
put
off
his
wife
,
that
tempted
him
to
blaspheme
God
,
with
the
reproachfull
terme
of
a
foolish
woman
:
as
Origen
bringeth
in
Iob
thus
speaking
to
his
wife
.
Tu
facta
es
deterior
Eua
in
insipientia
,
sed
ego
non
effectus
sum
Adam
in
stultitia
.
Thou
art
become
worse
then
Eua
in
foolishnes
,
but
thou
hast
not
made
me
as
Adam
in
sottishnes
:
Abraham
,
in
all
that
Sara
shall
say
vnto
thee
,
heare
her
voice
,
Gen.
21.
12.
The
Shunamites
husband
followed
her
aduice
in
making
prouision
to
entertaine
the
Prophet
,
2.
Kings
4.
10.
But
the
fashion
of
many
vnwise
and
vnthrifty
husbands
is
contrary
in
these
daies
,
who
if
in
time
they
would
haue
giuen
eare
to
the
friendly
aduise
of
their
wiues
,
which
of
a
stubborne
and
wilfull
mind
they
scorned
,
would
haue
salued
their
credite
,
saued
their
estate
,
and
preserued
their
health
:
This
then
maketh
a
good
medlye
,
and
soundeth
foorth
a
sweet
melody
,
bands
being
twist
one
about
an
other
,
are
the
stronger
:
so
are
they
by
their
mutuall
instructions
strengthened
.

But
seeing
that
Pharaohs
daughter
heere
being
spoused
to
Salomon
beareth
a
type
&
figure
of
the
daughter
the
Church
:
Isay.
9.
6.
So
Pharaohs
daughter
was
as
Salomons
daughter
in
respect
of
his
princely
gouernment
:
she
is
also
his
sister
.

As
he
is

and

nature
,
so
hee
is
not
ashamed
also
to
call
vs

11.
The
Church
also
is
a
mother
in
respect
of
the
faithfull
which
are
begotten
to
the
faith
:
so
Ierusalem
which
is
from
aboue
is
the
mother
of
vs
all
.
Galat.

Now
then
the
Church
must
heare
Christs
voice
:
Christs
sheepe
will
heare
his
voice
.
Iohn
.

they
wil
neither
heare
nor
follow
a
stranger
.
ver.
5.
Christs
voice
is
not
to
be
heard
but
in
the
Scriptures
:
therefore
other
doctrine
must
not
be
receiued
of
the
Church
,
then
is
taught
and
deliuered
in
the
Scriptures
.

If
perfect
wisedome
then
bee
found
in
the
scriptures
,
what
need
is
there
of
any
other
additions
:
whatsoeuer
is
added
to
that
which
is
perfect
,
sheweth
a
defect
and
is
superfluous
:
Therefore
Tertullian
saith
excellently
,
Nobis
curiositate
non
est
opus
post
Christum
Iesum
,
nec
inquisitione
post
Euangelium
:
Wee
need
no
curious
inuention
after
Christ
,
nor
no
inquisition
after
(
or

If
any
will
search
further
,
he
is
like
a
way●aring
man
without
a
guide
in
a
desert
country
,
and
as
a
shippe
on
the
sea
without
a
Pilot
:
to
leaue
the
scripture
is
a
way
to
error
,
not
a
stay
from
erring
as
he
againe
worthily
saith
.
Credunt
sine
scripturit
,
vt
credant
aduersus
scripturas
:
They
beleeue
without
Scripture
,
that
they
may
beleeue
against
Scripture
.
10.
Then
to
conclude
where
I
began
,
the
duetie
of
the
wife
,
is
to
be
directed
by
the
husband
,
beeing
a
man
of
vnderstanding
as
in
all
other
ciuill
matters
,
so
specially
in
religious
exercises
:
Those
wiues
are
to
blame
that
refuse
heerein
to
be
guided
,
and
those
husbands
more
,
which
do
not
vse
heerein
to
direct
their
wiues
,
but
suffer
them
euen
vnder
their
nose
,
as
we
say
,
to
practise
a
contrary
and
the
same
a
false
religion
:
As
many
,
themselues
protestants
(
but
cold
ones
,
you
may
well
thinke
)
doe
suffer
their
wiues
to
be
popish
recusants
:
it
is
an
excellent
saying
of
Ambrose
,
In
mulurum
insolentia
etiam
mariti
notantur
.
Ambrose
in
1.
Cor.
1.
14.
Euen
the
husbands
are
noted
in
the
insolent
behauiour
of
their
wiues
.
A
wife
suspected
in
religion
,
maketh
also
her
husband
to
be
suspected
;
Some
women
may
bee
so
wilfully
bent
,
and
so
frozen
in
their
superstitious
dregs
,
that
they
will
not
be
remooued
:
What
concord
hath
Christ
with
Beliall
,
or
what
part
hath
the
beleeuer
with
the
Infidell
.
2.
Cor.
6.
11.
And
what
true
loue
can
there
be
betweene
a
protestant
and
a
Papist
,
a
professor
of
the
true
faith
,
and
a
detester
thereof
.
That
a
woman
should
haue
no
friends
,
but
such
as
are
her
husbands
,
and
because
the
Gods
are
the
chiefest
friends
,
the
wife
should
acknowledge
no
other
Gods
but
those
which
her
husband
worshippeth
:
and
so
hee
concludeth
;
That
no
sacred
dutie
performed
secretly
and
by
stealth
by
the
wife
,
is
acceptable
to
any
of
the
gods
.
But
our
ancient
Christian
writer
much
better
;
In
Ecclesia
Dei
pariter
,
In
connubio
Dei
pariter
:
Forget
also
thine
owne
people
,
and
thy
fathers
house
11
First
touching
the
literall
and
historicall
sense
,
here
is
expressed
the
fidelitie
and
neere
coniunction
of
the
wife
to
her
husband
,
that
in
regard
thereof
euen
the
father
and
fathers
house
must
bee
forgotten
:
therefore
at
the
very
first
institution
of
marriage
this
rule
was
giuen
:
For
this
cause
shall
a
man
leaue
father
and
mother
,
and
clea●e
to
his
wife
,
Gen.
2.
25.
The
wife
must
not
for
any
others
sake
,
forsake
the
guide
of
her
youth
;
nor
forget
the
couenant
of
God
,
Prou.
3.
17.
Where
two
reasons
are
giuen
;
because
her
husband
,
though
now
olde
,
was
somtime
young
,
and
a
guide
to
his
wife
in
her
youth
,
when
shee
could
not
gouerne
her selfe
;
as
he
pleased
then
so
must
he
still
:
and
the
other
reason
is
,
because
a
couenant
was
made
betweene
them
before
God
,
which
must
not
be
broken
.
Thus
Sarah
first
,
and
afterward
Rebeccah
;
Leah
also
and
Rachel
,
left
their
countrie
,
father
,
and
fathers
house
,
and
did
follow
their
husbands
,
Abraham
,
Isaac
and
Iacob
.
12
Michol
Sauls
daughter
hearkened
not
to
her
father
,
but
against
his
minde
preserued
the
life
of
Dauid
her
husband
,
1.
Sam.
19.
12.
Yea
the
Heathen
women
by
the
light
of
nature
were
taught
to
preferre
the
loue
and
life
of
their
husbands
before
all
other
:
as
Cleopatra
Antiochus
daughter
the
great
,
being
giuen
in
marriage
to
Ptolomeus
Epiphanes
,
with
an
intent
to
make
away
her
husband
,
yet
tooke
her
husbands
part
against
her
father
,
which
is
thus
briefly
touched
in
Daniel
,
She
shall
not
stand
on
his
side
,
neither
be
for
him
,
Dan.
11.
17.
Diuers
such
examples
of
noble
women
,
that
were
faithfull
to
their
husbands
,
and
kept
continuall
remembrance
of
them
,
are
alleaged
by
Hierome
,
Martia
Cato
his
daughter
mourning
for
her
husband
,
being
asked
,
Quem
diem
haberet
luctus
vltimum
ait
,
quem
&
vitae
:
What
day
shall
be
the
last
of
her
griefe
:
the
same
saith
shee
,
that
shall
be
of
my
life
.
Valeria
,
the
wife
of
Seruius
,
would
not
consent
to
marrie
any
other
,
saying
,
Seruium
semper
viuere
:
That
her
husband
Seruius
liued
still
.
13
For
such
is
the
ordinance
of
God
,
that
man
and
wife
are
counted
one
flesh
,
Genes.
2.
24.
To
diuide
then
and
sunder
the
affection
betweene
man
and
wife
,
were
all
one
as
to
rent
one
member
from
another
.
Like
as
then
in
a
picture
,
the
first
colours
,
which
are
drawne
ouer
with
new
,
are
forgotten
,
hee
was
the
vaile
of
her
eyes
,
Genes.
20.
16.
that
shee
should
not
looke
vpon
any
other
:
so
mutually
the
husband
and
wife
are
each
to
other
,
both
a
vaile
to
their
eyes
,
and
a
couer
to
their
affections
,
not
with
the
eye
to
face
or
fancie
,
or
with
the
heart
to
embrace
any
other
.
Among
the
Romans
the
custome
was
,
14
But
though
the
woman
must
forget
her
fathers
house
,
in
comparison
of
her
new
house
and
husband
;
yet
her
dutie
to
her
parents
must
not
bee
forgotten
:
It
is
then
spoken
comparatiuely
,
as
many
like
places
are
frequent
in
Scripture
,
not
vttered
simply
&
absolutely
.
Indeed
it
is
the
fault
of
many
,
that
are
preferred
in
marriage
,
who
seeme
to
forget
their
poore
parents
:
dum
tu
transeas
sublimi
callo
,
&c.
Art
not
thou
ashamed
O
thou
daughter
,
that
when
thou
entrest
into
the
Church
,
thine
aged
mother
should
put
forth
her
hand
to
an
other
,
omitting
her
daughter
,
while
thou
passest
by
,
with
thy
necke
stretched
out
,
wearing
iew●ls
and
rings
,
&c.
So
then
the
husband
must
bee
preferred
,
and
yet
the
parent
not
neglected
:
the
one
in
the
first
place
must
be
remembred
,
but
the
other
not
altogether
forgotten
and
reiected
.
So
Hierome
shall
shut
vp
this
place
,
who
thus
writeth
:
Seruite
patribus
futuri
patres
,
seruite
matribus
vt
&
coni●ges
vestrae
mereantur
matres
nuncupari
:
Obserue
your
fathers
,
you
that
hope
to
be
fathers
,
and
be
seruiceable
to
your
mothers
,
that
your
wiues
also
may
be
thought
meet
to
be
called
mothers
.
15
Now
the
spirituall
sense
of
these
words
doth
leade
vs
to
vnderstand
it
of
the
Church
:
Ierem.
2.
27.
saying
vnto
a
tree
,
thou
art
my
father
,
and
to
a
stone
thou
hast
begotten
me
.
Thus
Cyril
:
or
the
diuell
may
bee
vnderstood
,
who
is
the
father
of
the
wicked
,
as
Augustine
,
Vndecunque
venerunt
gentes
à
patre
diabole
venerunt
,
sed
patri
renuntiauerunt
:
From
whence
soeuer
the
Gentiles
came
,
they
came
from
their
father
the
diuell
,
but
they
haue
renounced
their
father
:
or
the
Iewish
rites
and
ceremonies
are
here
insinuated
,
which
must
be
left
and
forgotten
vnder
the
Gospell
,
as
Lyranus
,
or
generally
,
as
Iustinus
Martyr
interpreteth
,
these
words
doe
teach
vs
to
forget
our
oldcountries
manners
what
soeuer
:
which
sense
is
more
full
then
the
rest
.
The
Pagane
feasts
must
bee
by
little
and
little
changed
into
Christian
festiuals
,
and
some
things
must
be
done
like
vnto
them
,
that
they
may
the
more
easily
bee
brought
to
the
Christian
faith
.
But
S.
Paul
hath
giuen
vs
another
rule
,
not
to
doe
euill
that
good
may
come
thereof
,
Rom.
3.
8.
And
herein
I
preferre
Tertullians
iudgement
,
who
giueth
this
caueat
touching
the
doctrine
of
the
Heathen
Philosophers
.
Quid
Athenis
&
Hierosolymis
,
quid
Academie
&
Ecclesiae
,
quid
h●reticis
&
Christians
?
What
hath
Ierusalem
to
doe
with
Athens
,
the
Church
with
(
Plato
his
)
Academie
,
Christians
with
hereticks
?
And
of
Plato
the
best
and
most
diuine
of
all
the
Philosophers
,
Doleo
bona
fide
Platonem
omnium
haereticorum
condimentarium
factum
:
I
am
sorie
in
very
deed
,
that
Plato
hath
giuen
the
taste
and
assay
to
all
heretickes
.
And
concerning
other
Heathenish
rites
and
fashions
hee
giueth
this
rule
:
Vt
nihil
dandum
idolo
,
sic
nec
sumendum
ab
idolo
:
As
nothing
must
be
giuen
to
an
idoll
,
so
neither
must
any
thing
bee
taken
from
an
idoll
.
16
And
to
returne
to
the
duties
of
carnall
marriage
,
as
this
last
point
concerneth
the
spiritual
;
as
wiues
are
taught
to
haue
their
husbands
bed
in
remembrance
,
and
to
keepe
themselues
true
and
faithfull
vnto
them
:
so
men
must
also
to
their
wiues
fidelity
be
answerable
in
the
like
chastitie
againe
:
euery
man
must
keepe
him
to
his
wife
,
as
the
woman
must
hold
her selfe
to
her
husband
,
Dost
thou
seeke
a
wife
vntouched
of
others
,
be
not
touched
thy selfe
:
wouldest
thou
haue
her
pure
,
be
not
thou
impure
:
And
againe
,
Dost
thou
require
this
of
thy
wife
,
and
wilt
not
thou
render
it
to
thy
wife
:
wilt
thou
haue
thy
wife
a
conquerer
,
while
thou
art
conquered
?
Whence
then
is
it
that
men
herein
take
vnto
themselues
greater
liberty
then
women
?
Among
many
Nations
,
as
the
Italians
,
Spaniards
and
Turkes
,
it
is
counted
a
capitall
crime
in
the
wife
to
tread
awry
,
Horrendus
,
&
incultus
est
vir
,
semel
placuit
,
nunquid
vir
est
frequenter
eligendus
?
comparem
sui

&
si

Is
thy
husband
growne
vnhandsome
and
vncomly
,
be
once
pleased
thee
,
wouldest
thou
euer
bee
choosing
of
an
husband
?
the
Oxe
and
Horse
like
their
mate
,
and
if
hee
bee
changed
,
they
know
not
how
to
draw
the
yoke
;
and
dost
thou
refuse
thy
yoakefellow

So
shall
the

haue
pleasure
in
thy
beautie

As
the
wife
must
shew
her selfe
dutifull
,
so
the
husband
must
be
regardeful
:
she
must
be
louely
,
and
he
louing
:
she
amiable
,
and
he
plyable
vnto
her
loue
.
Thus
the
Preacher
aduiseth
,
Reioyce
with
the
wife
,
whom
thou
hast
loued
all
the
daies
of
the
life
of

So
also
the
Wise

Reioyce

Euen
as
the
Roe
Buck
is
noted
to
be
most
louing
and
fond
vpon
his
Hind
;
so
should
the
husband
bee
addicted
to
his
wife
:
as
the
infant
is
tied
to
his
mother
breastes
;
so
the
man
should
be
wedded
in
affection
to
his
wife
.
There
should
then
be
a
reciprocall
and
mutuall
loue
betweene
them
:
as
of
the
husband
it
is
said
:
The
heart
of
her
husband
trusteth
in
her
:
and
of
the
wife
,
She
will
doe
him
good

yea
this
entire
affection
of
the
man
and

is
so
agreeable
to
nature
,
that
euen
the
Heathen
,
being
but
natural
men
,
herein
may
make
Christians
ashamed
:
Tiber.
Gracchus
was
so
affected
to
his

,
that
two

being
taken
in

the

and
being

that
if

,
his

were
saued
,
if
the
shee

his

he
spared
the
female
,
and
so
preferred
his
wiues
life
before
his
owne
.
Marcus
Plautius
hearing
of
the
death
of
his
wife
Horestilla
,
ran
vpon
his
owne
sword
,
and
so
died
with
her

So
Portia

the
wife
of
Brutus
hearing
that

was
killed

swallowed
downe
burning

ended
her

Such
immoderate
passions
of
vnbeleeuers

at
the
least
should
teach
Christians
to
haue
moderate
affections

For
where
there

of

it

is
tied
in
the

:
Cantic.

where
should
a
man
sport
and
recreate
himselfe
,
but
in
his
owne
garden
of
pleasure
.
So
is
it
in
the
Canticles
c.
5.
1.
I
am
come
into
my
garden
,
my
sister
,
I
gathered
my
mirrhe
with
my
spice
,
I
ate
my
honie
combe
with
my
honie
,
I
dranke
my
wine
with
my
milke
:
such
pleasure
and
delight
should
the
man
take
in
the
beautie
and
vertue
of
his
wife
.
20.
But
doth
the
Prophet
here
meane
onely
externall
beautie
?
no
verilie
:
there
is
an
inward
beautie
of
the
mind
far
surpassing
the
other
:
for
outward
fauour
without
good
behauiour
is
nothing
,
and
a
comely
face
,
that
hath
not
a
seemely
grace
is
not
to
be
set
by
.
As
a
iewell
of
gold
in
a
swines
snout
,
so
is
a
faire
woman
,
which
lacketh
discretion
,
Prou.
11.
22.
Some
haue
the
outward
,
but
not
the
inward
beauty
,
as
painted
Iesabel
,
some
haue
the
inward
only
,
as
Zipporah
,
Moses
wife
,
that
was
an
Ethiopisse
:
some
haue
both
,
as
Sarah
and
Rebeckah
:
But
vertue
is
more
to
be
respected
then
feature
,
and
faithfulnesse
then
finenesse
,
and
good
conditions
,
then
goodie
shewes
and
fashions
:
Nolo
te
sponsum
Veneris
fieri
sed
Palladis
:
I
would
not
haue
thee
an
husband
to
Venus
,
(
whom
the
Poets
made
the
goddesse
of
loue
)
but
of
Pallas
,
to
whom
they
attributed
wisdome
:
beautie
age
decaieth
,
sicknesse
wasteth
,
and
care
empaireth
:
but
vertue
none
of
these
abateth
.
And
loue
grounded
vpon
that
which
fadeth
,
will
soone
fade
,
but
setled
vpon
vertue
it
neuer
vanisheth
.
Let
Hierome
also
here
conclude
:
Amor
formae
,
rationis
obliuio
est
,
&
insaniae
proximus
;
the
affection
to
beautie
is
the
obliuion
of
reason
,
and
the
occasion
of
madnesse
.
21.
The
King
shall
take
delight
in
thy
beautie
.
This
being
in
the
spirituall
sense
applied
to
the
Church
sheweth
,
that
God
taketh
pleasure
in
his
Saints
,
being
regenerated
by
grace
,
and
washed
white
in
the
blood
of
the
lambe
:
Reuel.

14.
And
so
wisdome
saith
,
My
delight
is
with
the
dutifull
carriage
of
the
wife
,
both
her
obedience
in
action
and
endeuour
,
and
her
obeysance
in
fashion
and
behauiour
toward
her
husband
.

did

to

Dauid
,
calling
him
Lord
,
and
bowing
vnto
him
:

And
if
it
be
here
said
,
that
she
did
this
reuerence
to
him
as
King
,
not
as
her
husband
(
though
it
were
,
I
confesse
so
much
the
greater
,
because
hee
sustained
both
persons
)
yet
that
some
honour
is
due
vnto
the
single
person
of
the
husband
,
looke
vpon
Abigails
example
,
who
bowed
her selfe
to
the

,
when

sent
to
take
her
to
his

and
after
a
more
speciall
manner
;
and
therfore
to
be
reuerenced
of
the
woman
:
Gregorie
Nyssenus
,
of
mans
excellencie
:
Omnis
boni
factam
esse
participem
humanum
naturam
.
That
mans
nature
is
made
partaker
of
euery
good
thing
,
hauing
a
mortall
bodie
and
an
immortall
soule
.
Or
with
Ambrose
,
of
the
mind
and
vnderstanding
;
wherin
was
man
created
according
to
the
image
of
God
,
nisi
in
animae
substantia
,
but
in
the
substance
of
the
mind
?
Or
with
Theodoret
of
the
principality
of
man
:
Let
vs
make
man
according
to
our
image
,
&c.
Ambrose
vnderstandeth
it
thus
:
that
as
ex
Deo
omnia
,
Adam
,
Augustine
thus
:
Quia
in
homine
plus
viget
ratio
,
reason
beareth
more
sway
in
man
,
then
woman
;
and
therfore
he
is
said
more
principally
to
bee
made
according
to
the
image
of
God
:
But
Theodorets
exposition
is
most
agreeable
,
mulier
viro
subiecta
est
,
25.
The
woman
then
must
applie
her selfe
to
her
husband
,
seeking
by
her
humble
and
meeke
behauiour
to
content
him
:
as
the
Wise
man
saith
:
A
soft
answer
putteth
away
wrath
:
Prou.
15.
1.
euen
as
soft
things
doe
daunt
the
force
of
hard
and
violent
,
so
doth
gentlenesse
asswage
furie
:
euen
as
the
soft
water
breaketh
the
hard
stones
,
Iob
14.
19.
as
the
bulrush
by
bending
it selfe
,
are
felt
on
the
right
:
and
they
vse
to
let
blood
on
the
contrarie
side
,
so
should
the
man
and
wife
be
continually
affected
one
with
anothers
griefe
:
They
should
each
take
heed
of
anothers
offence
,
and
specially
beware
that
they
prouoke
not
by
hastie
and
vnaduised
speech
.
Ambrose
noteth
well
vpon
those
words
of
the
Psalme
:
I
thought
I
will
take
heed
to
my
waies
,
that
I
offend
not
in
my
toung
;
Aliae
sunt
viae
,
quas
debemus
sequi
,
aliae
,
quas
custodire
,
sequi
vias
Domini
,
custodire
nostras
:
There
are
some
waies
which
we
must
follow
,
some
that
we
must
keepe
;
we
must
follow
Gods
waies
,
and
obserue
and
keepe
our
owne
,
&c.
So
the
way
of
the
tongue
must
bee
carefully
kept
,
for
in
this
way
it
is
an
easie
matter
to
trippe
and
stumble
.
26.
Now
whereas
,
as
is
before
obserued
,
this
incuruaton
and
bowing
of
the
body
was
vsed
both
in
religious
adoration
of
God
,
and
in
the
ciuill
obseruation
of
men
:
as
here
this
text
first
historically
was
verified
in
Salomons
Queene
,
that
shewed
reuerence
vnto
him
,
so
is
it
spiritually
performed
in
the
Church
,
in
adoring
of
Christ
.
Hence
is
it
gathered
,
that
there
are
two
kinds
of
adoration
,
one
that
is
ciuill
yeelded
to
the
creature
,
the
other
religious
onely
peculiar
to
God
the
Creator
:
this
distinction
is
taken
out
of
the
Scripture
:
for
Peter
,
when
Cornelius
fell
downe
at
his
feet
and
worshipped
him
:
Act.
10.
25.
forbad
him
to
doe
it
:
But
when
the
Shunamite
tooke
Elisha
by
the
feet
,
falling
downe
before
him
,
Thy
fathers
sonne
shall
worship
thee
.
Iste
sermo
paulo
durius
refertur
ad
Iudam
,
nisi
abusiue
dicamus
,
adoratos
esse
quasi
reges
afratrib
.
This
is
somewhat
harsh
,
if
it
be
referred
to
Iuda
,
vnlesse
wee
say
,
that
abusiuely
,
the
Kings
were
adored
of
their
brethren
.
Adoration
then
is
either
properly
so
called
,
and
it
belongeth
onely
vnto
God
,
or
it
is
so
called
by
a
certaine
abuse
of
the
word
,
and
so
it
may
be
giuen
vnto
men
.
These
two
kind
of
worships
are
distinguished
three
waies
:
by
the
conception
of
the
vnderstanding
,
the
intention
of
the
will
,
and
the
disposition
of
the
bodie
:
so
in
diuine
worship
,
first
,
the
iudgement
is
informed
of
some
diuine
presence
,
Peter
,
Act.
10.
and
the
Angell
,
Reuel.
21.
knew
by
the
outward
preparation
of
the
body
,
what
Cornelius
and
Iohn
intended
to
doe
.
This
difference
in
the
outward
behauiour
is
well
obserued
by
Origen
out
of
the
parable
Mat.
17.
how
that
the
seruant
that
ought
so
many
talents
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
,
procidens
adorauit
;
falling
downe
worshipped
ver.
26.
27.
Heere
then
we
refuse
the
popish
curious
distinction
of
religious
worship
,
Nec
Dominus
vtique
se
adorari
pateretur
,
nisi
quia
Deus
est
.
Neither
the
Lord
would
haue
suffered
himselfe
to
bee
worshipped
,
but
that
he
is
God
:
Augustine
also
so
vnderstandeth
that
place
.
Recte
scribitur
hominem
ab
Angelo
prohibitum
,
ne
se
adoraret
,
sed
vnum
Deum
.
It
is
well
written
,
that
man
was
forbidden
by
the
Angell
to
worship
but
God
onely
.
And
further
the
same
father
sheweth
what
manner
of
worship
is
due
to
Saints
.
Honoram●s
eos
charitate
non
seruitute
&c.
Wee
honour
them
by
charity
,
not
by
seruice
:
And
againe
as
hee
is
cited
in
one
of
their
owne
Councels
:
We
honour
them
with
that
fellowship
and
louing
reuerence
(
or
worship
)
wherewith
holy
men
may
be
worshipped
in
their
life
:
What
is
that
else
but
a
ciuill
kind
of
worship
although
in
a
higher
degree
,
as
the
King
and
his
counsellers
are
reuerenced
with
a
ciuill
honor
,
yet
one
more
then
another
:
the
worship
then
which
is
giuen
to
the
creatures
admitteth
diuers
degrees
,
but
not
other
kinds
.
Sanct●s
Martyres
〈◊〉
adorare
consuenimus
:
laudamus
eos
potius
summis
honoribus
,
quod
proveritate
strenue
certarunt
.
Neither
vse
we
to
adore
Saints
,
wee
set
them
foorth
rather
with
great
honors
,
because
they
did
striue
valiantly
for
the
truth
:
28.
But
to
adde
somewhat
of
the
spirituall
sense
:
the
Church
is
heere
taught
to
adore
Christ
in
his
humanity
,
as
being
her
most
high
and
mighty
Lord
:
the
Apostle
saith
,
alleaging
a
place
out
of
the
Psalmes
:
when
hee
bringeth
in
his
first
begotten
sonne
into
the
world
,
he
saith
,
let
all
the
Angells
worship
them
,
Hebr.

Hee
is
worshipped
with
Diuine
worship
,
Iohn
.

Vnum

quis

,
vt
credam
in
eum
,
Christus

cum

ostendebat
,
qui

.
The
man
which
was
blind
from
his
birth
did
worship
one
sonne
,
who
is
the
sonne
of
God
,
Lord
saith
he
,
that
I
should
beleeue
in
him
:
but
Christ
sheweth
himselfe
with
his
body
,
hee
that
speaketh
with
thee
,
〈◊〉
hee
,
&c.
And
in
the
other
place
the
same
Cyril
directly
thus
affirmeth
with
the
rest
of
the
Fathers
of
the
Ephesine
counsell
:
Vnus
intelligitur
Christus
vna
seruitute
cum
carne
adorandus
.
One
Christ
is
vnderstood
to
be
adored
with
one
seruice
together
with
his
flesh
:
and
heereupon
they
made
this
Canon
,
Si
quis
audet
dicere
assumptum
hominem
coadorandum
Deo
verbo
et
conglorisicandum
—
ac
non
potius
vna
supplicatione
veneratur
Emanuel
,
vnamque
glorificationem
dependit
anathema
:
&c.
If
any
dare
say
,
that
the
man
assumed
is
to
be
worshipped
and
glorified
together
with
the
word
,
and
dooth
not
rather
with
one
supplication
worship
Emmanuel
,
and
giue
vnto
him
one
glorification
,
let
him
bee
an
anathema
,
that
is
,
accursed
.
Now
that
deuise
of
Bellarmine
cannot
serue
his
turne
,
that
this
kinde
of
worship
is
to
bee
giuen
to
Christ
.
Si
seorsim
humanitas
Christi
consider●tur
:
If
the
humanity
of
Christ
be
considered
apart
:
for
this
is
a
meere
imaginarie
supposition
,
for
then
is
it
not
Christs
humanity
,
if
it
should
be
seuered
from
him
:
Marcion
:
Non
valebit
blasphemiae
surculus
,
branch
of
blaspemy
shall
not
prosper
,
it
shall
wither
with
the
author
.
29.
Now
to
conclude
,
and
to
end
,
where
I
began
,
with
the
reciprocall
and
mutuall
dutie
,
that
ought
to
be
between
man
&
wife
:
as
she
is
to
obserue
her
husband
,
so
he
must
be
kind
and
louing
:
Husbands
must
not
be
bitter
to
their
wiues
.
Coloss.

19.
They
must
dwell
with
,
them
as
men
of
knowledge
,
and
giue
honour
to
women
as
vnto
the
weaker
vessell
.
1.

A
brittle
vessell
,
if
it
be
not
handled
charily
,
will
easily
bee
broken
,
and
so
a
woman
,
not
discreetly
vsed
may
soone
be
spoyled
:
much
may
by
gentlenesse
bee
obtained
on
each
side
,
Neque

neque

sicut

Let
not
admonition
be
rigorous
,
nor
reprehension
contumelious
:
for
as
friendship
is
void
of
flatterie
,
so
is
it
farre
off
from
insolencie
.
30.
Now
for
the
shutting
●p
of
all
;
to
apply
this
to
the
present
occasion
,
namely
this
honourable
mariage
now
solemnized
between
the
most
noble
Prince
Lord
Fredericke
,
and
the
most
excellent
princesse
the
Lady
Elizabeth
in
this
princely
couple
is
now
this
Scripture
verified
:
in
her
Highnes
,
this
;
Hearken
O
daughter
and
consider
,
forget
thine
owne
people
and
thy
Fathers
house
;
Ex
duobus
oculis
vnum
perdid●
;
Innocentium
enim
partem
animae
meae
repentinus
febrium
ardor
abstraxit
,
nunc
vno
et

Euagrio

;
Of
my
two
eies
I
haue
lost
one
,
Innocentius
euen
a
part
of
my
soule
,
a
burning
feuer
hath
suddenly
taken
him
away
,
now
I
onely
enioy
Euagrius
my
sole
and
onely
light
:
for
although
in
like
manner
that
cruell
feuer
did
as
it
were
put
out
one
of
her
eies
for
the
time
,
in
the
death
of
Prince
Henry
,
yet
is
it
renewed
againe
,
in
her
noble
spouse
:
that
now
shee
seeth
againe
with
both
her
eies
;
Prince
Charles
,
her
deerest
brother
,
and
Prince
Fredericke
her
amiable
spouse
:
of
this
vertuous
Princesse
we
may
say
in
the
words
of
Salomon
:
many
daughters
haue
done
vertuously
,
but
thou
surmountest
them
all
:
fauour
is
deceiptfull
,
and
beauty
is
vanity
,
but
a
woman
that
feareth
the
Lord
,
she
shall
be
praised
.
Prou.
31.

And
on
the
other
side
,
in
this
illustrious
Prince
,
that
other
saying
wee
doubt
not
but
is
fulfilled
:
the
King
shall
delight
in
thy
beautie
:
God
hath
we
trust
so
prouided
,
that
they
shall
bee
each
to
other
a
mutuall

THE
SECOND
PART
OF
THE
GLORY
AND
HONOR
OF
SALOMONS
SPOVSE
REPREsenting
the
Church
of
God
.
12.
The
daughter
of
Tyrus
with
a
present
,
shal
make
[
a
](A15435-e7980-b)
a
Heb.
shall
entreat
thy
face
.
supplication
vnto
thee
,
euen
the
rich
of
the
people
.
13.
The
Kings
daughter
is
all
glorious
within
:
her
cloathing
is
of
broydered
gold
.
14.
Shee
shall
bee
brought
vnto
the
King
in
raiment
of
needle
worke
:
the
Virgines
after
her
,
her
companions
,
shall
be
brought
vnto
thee
.
15.
With
ioy
and
gladnes
shall
they
be
brought
,
and
shall
enter
into
the
Kings
pallace
.
16.
In
steed
of
thy
Fathers
shall
thy
children
be
:
thou
shalt
place
them
for
Princes
in
all
the
earth
.
THE
first
signe
and
argument
of
the
great
glorie
of
this
honourable
spouse
is
the
great
presents
,
and
costly
gifts
which
the
rich
citie
of
Tyrus
should
bring
,
and
solemnize
this
marriage
with
:
what
the
glory
and
wealth
of
this
Citie
was
,
the
Prophet
sheweth
.
Isai.
23.
8.
Whose
Merchants
were
Princes
,
whose
chapmen
are
the
Nobles
of
the
world
:
Herode
,
because
their
country
was
maintained
by
the
Kings
land
.
Acts
12.
20.
for
from
thence
they
had
their
prouision
of
corne
:
as
to
shew
their
voluntary
subiection
,
and
congratulation
in
that
solemnitie
.
The
like
is
prophesied
.
Psalm.
72.
10.
The
Kings
of
Tarshish
,
and
of
the
Istes
shall
bring
presents
,
the
Kings
of
Sheba
&
Seba
shal
bring
gifts
.
This
was
so
accomplished
when
Hiram
King
of
Tyrus
sent
presents
vnto
Salomon
.
1.
King
.
4.
10.
And
when
the
Queene
of
Sheba
presented
Salomon
with
rich
gifts
of
gold
,
sweete
odors
,
and
pretious
stones
.
1.
King
.
10.
10.
2.
Hereby
is
signified
the
prosperous
and
peaceable
gouernment
of
Salomon
,
who
for
his
wisedome
was
honored
,
and
all
countries
adioyning
yeelded
obeysance
vnto
him
:
not
by
compulsary
subiection
,
but
by
voluntary
submission
:
which
sheweth
,
that
Kings
then
are
most
famous
,
and
prosper
best
,
when
by
iustice
they
mainteine
tranquillitie
at
home
,
and
amity
abroad
,
not
oppressing
their
subiects
by
tyrannie
within
,
nor
encroaching
vpon
their
neighbours
by
rapine
and
iniury
without
.
This
was
historically
prophecied
of
Salomon
.
In
his
daies
shall
the
righteous
flourish
,
and
abundance
of
peace
.
They
that
dwell
in
the
wildernes
shall
kneele
before
him
,
his
enemies
shall
licke
the
dust
.
Psal.
72.
79.
And
this
was
fufilled
accordingly
.
1.
King
.

24.
Salomon
ruled
ouer
all
the
Kings
on
the
other
side
of
the
riuer
,
and
he
had
peace
round
about
him
on
euery
side
:
hee
had
peace
not
by
violent
compulsion
,
or
fraudulent
circumuention
,
but
rather
by
friendly
contentment
,
and
as
it
were
composition
:
as
Ambrose
testifieth
of
Theodosius
the
Elder
,
Maluit
sibi
homines
religione
,
quam
timore
astringere
&c.
de
obit.
Theodos.
He
had
rather
bind
men
vnto
him
by
the
feare
of
religion
,
then
by
a
seruile
condition
.
Forren
histories
make
honourable
mention
of
Agesilaus
the
Lacedemonian
,
fie
Graecia
which
hath
slaine
so
many
as
sufficed
to
ouerrunne
all
the
Barbarians
.
And
Pericles
,
when
the
Athenians
would
haue
gone
out
to
fight
with
their
enemies
,
sealed
vp
the
Armorie
,
and
keyes
of
the
gates
,
and
would
not
suffer
them
to
goe
out
:
such
moderation
was
in
these
valiant
Captains
,
and
so
auerse
were
they
from
the
effusion
of
bloud
.
3.
Now
,
if
we
will
know
the
reason
of
this
voluntary
subiection
of
Tyrus
and
other
countries
vnto
Salomon
,
Elie
,
They
that
honour
me
will
I
honour
,
and
they
that
despise
me
shall
be
despised
.

as
Ambrose
excellently
saith
.
Quanto

viciniore

,
ta●to

à
nobis

repellentur
:
The
neerer
we
are

,
the

are
our
enemies
from
vs
.
And
on
the
contrary
,
he
bringeth
in
the
example
of
Valens
the
Arrian
Emperor
,
a
great
persecutor
of
Gods
Church
,
who
was
ouercome
of
the
Barbarians
,
wherein
the
Lord
shewed
his
iust
indignation
:
Vt
ibi
primum
fides
Romano
imperio
frangeretur
,
vbi
fractum
est

.
lib.

That
there
first
faith
should
be
broken
with
the
Romane
Empire
,
where
they
had
first
broken
it
with
God
.
4.
A
righteous
and
peaceable
King
then
,
is
like
the
raine
that
commeth
downe
vpon
the
mowen
grasse
,
to
make
it
to
grow
,
Psalm
.
72.
6.
whereas
bloudy
gouernors
are
like
fithes
which
cut
downe
the
grasse
:
as
the
cutting
King
of
Ashur
is
compared
to
a
sharpe
rasor
,
that
shaueth
the
head
,
beard
and
haire
of
the
feete
,
Isai.
2.
20.
The
one
is
as
an
hiding
place
from
the
wind
,
and
as
a
refuge
from
the
tempest
,
Isai.
32.
2.
Whereas
the
other
is
as
a
stormie
winde
and
tempest
:
the
one
as
waters
in
a
drye
ground
to
refresh
it
,
Isai.
32.
2.
The
other
as
ouerflowing
waters
,
that
runne
ouer
all
,
Isai.
87.
The
one
as
comfortable
,
as
when
Nilus
ascendit
in
arua
,
5.
Now
whereas
Tyrus
sendeth
gifts
:
Esther
.
9.
19.
There
is
compensatorium
munus
,
a
compensatory
gift
,
when
one
giueth
by
way
of
recompence
for
some
wrong
formerly
done
,
as
Zacheus
did
Luk.
9.
8.
There
is
donum
opitulatorium
,
a
releeuing
and
helping
gift
,
as
to
the
poore
:
and
honorarium
,
a
gift
of
honour
,
as
presents
sent
to
great
persons
,
as
Iacob
thereby
made
a
way
with
his
brother
.
Genesis
.
33.
8.
And
of
this
kind
are
the
presents
which
the
daughter
of
Tyrus
heere
offereth
:
and
such
honourable
gifts
,
no
doubt
,
this
Princely
marriage
,
shall
be
honoured
with
,
both
by
noble
persons
at
home
and
abeoad
:
Beside
these
,
there
is
another
kind
of
gift
,
not
worthy
to
bee
named
,
donum
corru●pen●●t
destructorium
:
a
corrupting
and
destroying
gift
,
which
is
by
bribing
,
and
blinding
the
eies
:
such
as
Felix
looked
for
at
Pauls
hand
,
but
because
none
came
he
left
him
bound
still
:
[
a
](A15435-e8730-b)
a
The
Rauen
came
to
the
Arke
,
but
not
into
it
to
Noah
.
rauens
not
the
doues
wings
,
to
carry
men
from
the
Arke
,
not
to
bring
them
to
it
:
Many
a
poore
mans
cause
lyeth
bound
with
Paul
,
and
cannot
be
loosed
,
nor
set
free
,
because
it
wanteth
a
siluer
key
to
vnlocke
the
bolts
:
but
let
men
take
heede
,
how
with
Esau
for
a
messe
of
pottage
,
they
sell
their
eternall
inheritance
.
Let
men
beware
of
such
gifts
.
Vbi
ditior
est
largitore
,
cui
largiendum
est
—
pars
sacrilegij
est

pauperum

.
Hier
on
,
ad
Pammach.
Where
hee
to
whom
one
giueth
,
is
richer
then
the
giuer
,
it
is
a
part
of
sacriledge
,
to
bestow
the
poores
gift
on
them
that
are
not
poore
,
&c.
Now
touching
the
mysticall
sense
:
Christs
kingdome
is
here
signified
to
bee
a
kingdome
of
peace
:
it
bringeth
both
internall
and
externall
peace
;
as
it
is
prophecied
,
Esay
2.
4.
They
shall
breake
their
swords
into
matt●ckes
,
and
their
speares
into
sithes
:
Nation
shall
not
lift
vp
a
sword
against
nation
:
Quomodo
ob

,
quibus
magnitudo
ob
irreligiositaetem
prouenit
?
tot
sacrilegia
Romanorum
,
quot

:
religionem
aut

aut

laeserunt
:
How
can
they
bee
said
to
be
great
for
religion
,
whose
greatnesse
commeth
by
irreligion
?
The
Romans
haue
committed
as
many
sacriledges
,
as
erected
Trophees
:
they
haue
either
encreased
by
hurting
religion
;
or
by
encreasing

hurt
religion
.

As
Salomons
raigne
was
peaceable
,
his
clemencie
,
equitie
and
piety
at
the
first
procured
peace
:
so
hath
the
Gospell
brought
peace
to
this
land
,
now

yeeres
:
all
Queene
Elizabeths
raigne
,
and
hitherto
these
tenne
yeeres
:
cur
petat
ab
altero
,
qui
inter
se
inuentre
potest
,
quod
quaerat
?
But
that
which
is
better
,
let
vs
send
an
embassage
by
our
prayers
and
fastings
vnto
God
:
why
should
one
aske
of
another
,
when
he
may
finde
in
himselfe
that
which
he
seeketh
?
Thus
shall
we
obtain
continuance
of
peace
by
the
force
of
prayers
,
sooner
then
by
the
dint
of
sword
;
by
teares
and
humility
,
then
by
armour
and
chiualrie
.
And
so
shall
it
come
to
passe
,
as
Hierome
saith
,
Vt
qui
contemnunt
sceptra
regalia
&
purpuras
Caesarnm
,
Christianorum
sordes
&
iemma
pertimescant
:
That
they
which
care
not
for
the
kingly
scepter
&
imperiall
power
,
shal
feare
Christian
fasting
and
prayers
:
Which
I
say
not
,
as
though
outward
armour
should
be
neglected
,
but
spirituall
onely
preferud
;
for
neecessary
war
prouision
must
be
made
:
as
Augustine
excellently
saith
;
Pacem
habere
debet
voluntas
,
bellum
necessitas
,
vt
liberet
Deus
a
necessitate
,
&
conseruet
in
pace
,
&c.
Our
desire
must
be
for
tranquillitie
,
and
warre
for
necessity
,
that
God
may
deliuer
vs
from
the
necessity
,
and
keepe
vs
in
tranquillity
.
Which
God
for
his
mercy
grant
.
The
Kings
daughter
is
all
glorious
within
,
&c.
8
Here
are
two
words
to
expresse
the
glory
of
the
brides
apparell
,
Thamar
Dauids
daughter
had
such
a
garment
,
when
her
brother
defiled
her
,
2.
Sam.
14.
19.
And
this
to
bee
the
true
sense
of
the
word
,
is
euident
.
Exod.
26.
36.
Thou
shalt
make
an
hanging
of
blue
silke
,
purple
scarlet
,
wrought
with
the
needle
,
not
of
diuers
colours
:
for
they
are
set
downe
before
.
And
seeing
the
costlinesse
and
glory
of
the
Queenes
apparell
is
here
set
forth
,
rather
the
working
with
the
needle
,
then
the
view
of
diuers
colours
sheweth
the
richnesse
of
the
apparell
:
for
such
a
coate
Iacob
made
for
Ioseph
,
which
was
gay
,
rather
then
glorious
or
costly
.
9
This
beautifull
and
goodly
spouse
,
is
both
glorious
within
,
and
glittering
without
:
the
externall
ornaments
are
nothing
without
the
inward
complements
:
a
woman
should
rather
be
decent
within
,
then
decked
without
,
to
haue
comelinesse
of
minde
rather
then
costlinesse
of
apparell
.
So
S.
Peter
aduiseth
,
Whose
apparelling
let
it
not
be
outward
,
with
broidered
haire
and
gold
put
about
,
but
let
the
hid
man
of
the
heart
be
vncorrupt
,
with
a
meeke
and
quiet
spirit
,
which
is
before
God
a
thing
much
set
by
:
for
after
this
manner
in
time
past
did
holy
women
tyre
themselues
,
&c.
1.
Pet.
3.
3.
4.
5.
It
is
not
vnlawfull
for
women
of
state
and
honour
to
attire
themselues
according
to
their
place
but
they
must
labour
more
for
the
inward
gifts
,
then
outward
fashions
.
Habitu
Nabuchadnezor
,
mente
Deo
seruiebant
:
they
serued
Nebuchadnezzar
in
their
habits
,
but
God
in
their
minde
:
so
Mordocheus
and
Queene
Esther
,
Inter
purpuram
,
superbiam
humilitate
vicerunt
,
did
,
in
the
middest
of
their
purple
robes
vanquish
pride
and
vanity
,
with
humility
.
Thus
should
inward
grace
,
and
the
outward
shining
face
,
the
garnishing
of
the
mind
,
and
the
furnishing
of
the
bodie
goe
together
:
a
fine
garment
,
and
a
foule
soule
;
a
comely
feature
,
and
vncomely
behauiour
doe
not
well
suit
together
.
Noble
men
and
women
,
that
liue
in
Princes
pa●aces
,
and
glitter
in
goodly
garments
,
should
bee
like
to
Nebridius
,
whom
Hierome
so
much
commendeth
.
Inter
fulgorem
palatij
,
&
honorum
culmina
sic
vixit
,
vt
se
crederet
ad
Christum
profecturum
:
nihil
nocuit
militanti
paludamentum
,
quia
sub
habitu
alterius
alteri
militabat
:
Hee
so
liued
in
the
glittering
shew
of
the
palace
and
in
the
height
of
honour
,
as
one
that
was
trauelling
to
Christ
:
his
souldiers
garment
did
not
hurt
him
,
10
Wee
must
then
haue
a
speciall
regard
to
the
heart
:
because
that
is
it
which
the
Lord
looketh
vnto
,
11.
This
glorie
of
the
spouse
within
may
be
vnderstood
two
waies
:
either
of
the
vertues
of
the
mind
,
as
they
are
opposed
to
outward
ornaments
:
or
of
the
true
naturall
beautie
and
glorie
of
the
bodie
,
as
it
is
set
against
painted
and
deceiueable
fauour
,
12.
The
Church
of
Christ
here
signified
by
this
beautifull
spouse
,
is
also
glorious
within
by
faith
in
Christ
:
it
hath
also
exernall
gifts
,
as
Augustine
vnderstandeth
by
these
broydered
garments
of
gold
,
varietates
linguarum
,
decus
,
&c.
Varietie
of
languages
,
the
honour
of
the
Church
:
sed
quid
ista
prosunt
,
&c.
but
what
doe
these
things
profit
,
if
that
inward
beautie
bee
wanting
:
these
inward
ornaments
are
those

shining

,
sitteth
in

gold
,
pretious

,
which
are
accursed
,
without
the
which
the
cursed

could
not
bee
described
.
This
vaine
pompe
of
Churches
,
images
,
vestments
,
either
they
borrow
from
the
Gentiles
,
and
then
we
say
againe
with
Tertullian
:
simus

Why
should
we
not
be
of
the
same
manners
,
if
we
retaine
the
same
fashions
:
or
else
they
haue
them
from
the
Iewes
,
and
then
Bernard
will
tell
them
:
that
the
Temple
was
then
garnished
with

,

:
Therefore
let
vs
refuse
their
gilded
ornaments
with
other
superstitions
,
or
if
we
will
haue
the
Iewish
ornaments
,
let
vs
become

To
returne
to
the
historicall
sense
,
weare
soft
raiment
,
are
in
Kings
houses
:
Matth.
11.
8.
wherin
Tertullian
seemeth
to
be
somewhat
too
strict
,
that
those
ornaments
would
rather
disgrace
,
then
grace
his
daughters
:
but
our
Christian
Cyrill
much
better
,
who
would
haue
men
take
heed
of
superfluous
,
curious
and
costly
raiment
,
lest
vnder
a
pretense
of
hiding
one
vncomelinesse
,
fall
into
another
vncomelinesse
:
for
as
Hierome
well
saith
;
istiusmodi
ornatus
&
cultus
sordib
.
turpior
est
:
such
kind
of
finenesse
is
worse
then
sluttishnesse
.
And
so
Tertullian
shall
here
conclude
:
Vestite
vos
serico
sanctitatis
,
byssino
probitatis
,
purpura
pudicitiae
,
taliter
pigmentatae
Deum
habebitis
amatorem
:
Attire
your selues
with
the
silke
of
sanctitie
,
The
virgines
after
her
,
her
companions
shall
be
brought
vnto
thee
.
14.
This
is
the
third
argument
,
to
illustrate
the
glorie
of
the
royall
Queene
,
taken
a
comitatu
,
from
her
companie
and
attendants
:
the
principall
meaning
hereof
,
doth
leade
vs
to
consider
of
the
vocation
of
the
Church
of
the
Gentiles
,
as
Augustine
wel
expoundeth
,
Vere
factum
est
,
ecclesia
credidit
,
facta
per
omnes
gentes
;
This
was
done
in
deed
,
the
Church
beleeued
and
is
constituted
among
al
Nations
,
&c.
Like
as
then
a
Queene
is
attended
with
maides
of
honour
,
as
the
Queene
of
Sheba
came
to
Ierusalem
with
a
very
great
traine
vnto
Salomon
,
1.
King
.
10.
2.
and
noble
Queene
Ester
had
her
maides
that
waited
vpon
her
,
Ester
4.
16.
I
haue
prepared
you
for
one
husband
to
present
you
as
a
pure
virgine
to
Christ
:
2.
Cor.
11.
2.
So
in
the
godly
raigne
of
Hezekiah
,
when
idolatrie
was
expelled
,
and
the
true
worship
of
God
maintained
:
Ierusalem
is
called
a
virgin
;
O
virgin
daughter
of
Zion
,
2.
King
.
19.
21.
she
is
called
a
virgine
,
Propter
integritatem
fidei
,
15.
So
then
the
true
worshippers
of
God
must
bee
as
virgines
,
to
refuse
all
other
louers
,
and
to
keepe
them
onlie
to
God
;
and
the
Lord
must
haue
the
virginitie
and
first
of
their
seruice
:
he
will
not
take
anothers
leauings
,
but
will
be
the
first
:
euen
as
the
Lord
was
first
serued
vnder
the
law
when
they
brought
vnto
him
the
first
fruites
of
all
things
:
so
God
will
haue
the
first
oblations
of
our
seruice
;
quam
per
aetatem
●alcare
p●tuisset
.
He
trampled
vpon
the
Deuill
before
by
reason
of
his
yong
age
he
knew
how
to
trample

so
the

Wee
finde
diuers
sorts
of
Virgins
mentioned
in
the
Scripture
,
and
in
diuers
senses
:
they
are
so
called
eyther
in
a
metaphoricall
or
litterall
sense
,
the
metaphoricall
hath
either
a
spiritual
respect
(
as
they
are
Virgins
,
Cor.
11.
2.
)
or
a
temporall
:
as
Tyrus
is
called
a
Virgin
Isai.
23.
12.
because
they
had
not
beene
yet
subdued
by
any
,
and
brought
vnder
the
yoake
of
subiection
:
now
in
the
litterall
sense
,
there
are
two
sorts
of
virgines
,
either
in
the
body
,
as
they
which
are
vnmarried
.
1.
Corinth.
7.
37.
or
in
mind
,
as
they
,
whose
chastity
and
virginity
is
forced
against
their
mind
:
they
are
virgines
,
though
not
both
in
body
and
rit
,
as
the
Apostle
saith
.
1.
Cor.
7.
34.
yet
in
spirit
they
are
,
of
whom
Ambrose
thus
writeth
.
Tolerabilus
est
mentem
virginem
quam
carnem
,
habere
;
vtr●nque
bonum
si
liceat
,
si
non
liceat
,
saltem
non
homini
casti
,
sed
Deo
simus
.
lib.
2.
de
virgini●
.
It
is
better
to
haue
the
mind
a
virgine
then
the
flesh
,
both
are
good
if
t●ey
may
be
had
,
if
not
,
let
vs
not
be
chast
vnto
men
,
but
vnto
God
,
&c.
The
virgines
,
which
are
heere
spoken
of
,
are
the
virgines
of
the
first
sort
,
which
keepe
the
virginity
and
integrity
of
their
faith
,
sound
vnto
God
.
17.
But
heere
we
must
take
heede
,
that
this
expresse
mention
made
of
Virgines
,
doe
not
bring
vs
to
haue
such
a
conceite
of
carnall
and
externall
virginity
,
with
the
Romanists
,
as
to
giue
vnto
it
simply
that
preeminence
and
prerogatiue
before
all
other
professions
:
Reuel.
14.
4.
These
are
they
which
are
not
defiled
with
women
,
for
they
are
Virgines
,
these
follow
the
lambe
,
whether
soeuer
he
goeth
,
whereupon
he
inferreth
thus
:
Ex
quo
testimonio
apparet
,
singulare
praemium
habere
virgines
:
Out
of
which
testimony
it
appeareth
that
Virgines
haue
a
singular
reward
.
&c.
But
this
place
will
not
serue
his
turne
:
which
Ambrose
expoundeth
,
in
this
manner
.
In
mulieribus
errorem
significauit
,
quia
per
mulierem
error
caepit
:
nam
si
ideo
putes
virgines
dictos
,
quia
corpora
sua
intaminata
seruarunt
,
excludes
ab
has
gloria
sanctos
,
quia
omnes
Apostoli
.
&c.
He
signifieth
by
women
error
,
because
error
came
by
a
woman
,
for
if
you
thinke
they
are
called
Virgines
,
because
they
kept
their
bodies
vndefiled
,
you
wil
exclude
the
saints
from
this
glory
,
for
all
the
Apostles
except
Paul
and
Iohn
had
wiues
,
&c.
This
is
Ambrose
reason
,
taken
from
a
great
inconuenience
,
the
excluding
of
the
glorious
Saints
:
Hierome
proueth
this
not
to
be
vnderstood
of
externall
virginity
onely
,
In
their
mouthes
was
found
no
guile
.
Vides
ergo
,
quod
in
vno
virgines
tantum
membrorum
dominicis
referantur
inhaerere
vestigijs
,
sed
illi
,
&c.
You
see
then
,
that
virgines
in
one
onely
of
their
members
are
said
to
tread
in
the
Lords
steps
:
but
they
in
all
which
leade
a
life
vncorrupt
from
euery
contagion
of
sin
,
&c.
And
Augustine
whome
Bellarmine
alleageth
,
as
fauouring
and
fathering
his
interpretation
,
granteth
that
Coniugati
fideles
possunt
ire
per
ista
vestigia
,
etsi
non
perfecte

eadem
forma
ponentes

.
Euen
the
faithful
married
persons
may
goe
by
these
footsteps
,
Obedientia

Obedience

&c.
And
Bernard
further
thus
deliuereth
his
opinion
concerning
virgins
,
18.
Heere
somewhat
for
the
conclusion
of
this
part
also
would
be
added
touching
the
literall
sense
;
I
and
my
maides
(
saith
that
noble
Queene
)
will
fast
.
Esther
.
4.
16.
They
of
all
other
should
not
make
themselues
gazing
stocks
of
pride
,
Thou
wicked
fellow
,
what
such
thing
hast
thou
knowne
by
me
,
that
thou
shouldst
flatter
me
with
such
pleasures
.
I
would
wish
that
Courtiers
professing
Christianity
,
would
thus
arme
themselues
against
such
tentations
as
he
did
in
the
state
of
infidelity
:
But
I
need
not
send
them
to
Alexander
,
they
haue
a
domesticall
example
,
our
noble
King
,
as
the
treasurer
of
bounty
,
the
professor
of
piety
,
practiser
of
clemencie
,
so
the
mirrour
of
Chastity
:
But
heere
our
gallant
Ladies
will
say
,
that
if
they
did
not
attire
themselues
to
the
fashion
,
they
should
scandalize
others
and
be
counted
odde
by
themselues
:
heere
Tertullian
shal
make
them
an
answer
,
who
thus
excellently
turneth
off
this
obiection
:
For
Chastity
as
Cyrill
well
saith
,
is
an
angelicall
Crowne
.
With
ioy
and
gladnesse
shall
they
bee
brought
and
enter
into
the
Kings
Pallace
.
19.
The
fourth
part
followeth
whereby
the
glory
of
this
honourable
Lady
is
set
foorth
,
the
solemne
progresse
and
pro●●ssion
of
this
princely
company
:
first
for
the
literall
sense
:
the
people
of
God
alwaies
haue
had
their
cheerfull
solemnities
,
They
haue
seene
O
God
,
thy
goings
,
the
goings
of
my
God
,
and
my
King
in
the
Sanctuarie
:
The
singers
went
before
,
the
players
of
instruments
after
,
in
the
midst
were
the
maides
playing
on
timbrels
.
Psalm.
68.
24.
25.
Thus
Moses
and
the
children
of
Israell
,
made
a
solemne
thankesgiuing
vnto
God
,
and
M●riam
with
the
women
came
forth
with
timbrels
and
daunces
,
and
answered
them
.

of

,
with
timbrels
and
other
instruments
of
ioy
.

For
in
these
solemne
assemblies
of
ioy
,
they
intended
nothing
but
the
honour
of
God
,
Come
let
vs
reioyce

let

are

Such
are
the
decent

of

people

vnto

We
read
of
foure
kind
of
solemne

they
sate

forth

rich

causing
the
people
to
bow
downe

kneele
to
a

according
to
that
Prophecy
of

he
shall
honor
the

the
god
whom

shall
hee
honour
with

and
with
pretious
stones
and
pleasant
things

This
glittering
and
gorgeous
shew
in
religious
processions
,
hath
beene
condemned
in
former
times
,
as
thus
it
was
decreede
in
a
prouinciall
synode
:
Caueant

Leuites
(
that
is
ministers
or
deacons
)
must
take
heed
,
that
they
vse
not
a
double
prayer-garment
,
but
one
,
and
the
same
plaine
,
without
any
colour
or
gold
,
&c.
The
like
was
decreed
in
a
generall
counsell
in
this
manner
:
Eos

qui

vel
ex

Those
,
which
beare
in
their
hand
certain
vessels
of
gold
or
of
other
matter
,
to
receiue
the
diuine
gift
,
thinking
by
them
the
communion
to
bee
kept
vndefiled
,
wee
by
no
meanes
admit
,
as
preferring
a
dead
matter
,
and
at
mans
command
,
before
the
image
of
God
,
&c.
What
could
be
more
directly
said
against
the
carying
of
their
host
in
vessels
of
gold
,
vnder
canopies
of
cloth
of
siluer
,
with
rich
&
costly
attire
,
and
all
to
adore
a
wheaten
cake
:
These
gorgeous
shewes
they
borrow
of
the
heathen
Romanes
their
predecessors
,
as
Tertullian
saith
:
Hoc
ritu
habitu
et
apparatu
idolis
immolatur
—
hae
erant
pompae
diaboli
et
angelorum
eius
,
officia
seculi
,
honores
&c.
de
coron
milit.
In
the
same
habite
rite
and
preparation
,
they
sacrifice
to
their
gods
:
and
so
he
concludeth
,
these
were
the
pompe
of
the
Deuill
and
his
Angels
,
the
seruice
of
the
world
,
vaine
honour
,
&c.
23.
To
adde
somewhat
of
the
spirituall
sense
:
by
this
entring
of
the
Virgins
into
the
Kings
palace
is
set
forth
,
the
flocking
of
the
Gentiles
to
the
Church
of
God
:
and
in
this
sense
the
vulgar
latin
readeth
templum
,
the
temple
,
for
palace
,
and
so
the
Hebrue
word
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
●echal
also
signifieth
,
as
Psal.
5.
8.
and
so
the
septuagint
translate
it
here
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
the
temple
of
the
king
:
so
Augustine
likewise
expoundeth
,
Templum
regis
ipsa
ecclesia
,
the
temple
of
the
King
is
the
Church
of
God
:
Thus
christians
should
in
their
cheerful
processions
visit
the
Church
of
God
:
ibid.

Some
there
are
which
will
bee
in
the
King
and
Queenes
train
in
their
princely
processions
and
shewes
,
but
will
leaue
them
when
they
come
to
the
Church
:
They
will
not
doe
that
seruice
to
a
Christian
Prince
in
the
worship
of
the
true
God
,
which
Naaman
did
to
an
heathen
King
in
his
idolatrous
seruice
of
R●mmon
;
to
sing
,
read
,
or
pray
.
24.
Now
to
returne
to
the
historicall
sense
,
heere
this
goodly
company
of
virgines
doe
accompany
this
glorious
Queene
into
the
Kings
pallace
:
they
are
attired
as
virgines
,
their
behauiour
,
progresse
,
walking
is
,
as
becommeth
virgines
.
Heere
then
such
maides
as
do
serue
Princes
,
are
admonished
in
all
their
carriage
and
behauiour
to
be
virgin-like
;
Isay
reprooueth
the
daughters
of
Zion
for
three
speciall
faults
,
incessu
,
habitu
,
vestitu
,
in
their
gate
,
habit
of
their
body
,
strange
fashions
of
apparell
:
for
the
first
he
saith
,
they
minse
as
they
goe
,
walke
with
stretched
out
neckes
,
that
their
necks
and
breasts
might
appeare
:
and
for
the
third
:
he
nameth
diuers
strange
formes
of
apparell
,
as
their
head-tyre
,
slops
,
headbands
and
such
like
,
Isay.
3.
16.
20.
And
this
is
the
very
fashion
and
guise
of
wanton
maides
and
Virgines
in
these
times
.
First
,
concerning
their
minsing
and
affected
gate
,
see
how
Ambrose
checketh
the
women
of
his
time
;
Cernis
vt
pomparum
ferculis
similis
incedit
,
qui
abscondat
faeminam
,
consecret
martyrem
:
I
came
in
as
an
adulterer
,
and
if
thou
wilt
,
will
go
out
as
a
martyr
;
let
vs
change
garments
,
thy
vesture
shall
make
me
a
true
souldier
,
mine
shall
keepe
thee
a
virgine
:
take
thee
an
habit
,
which
shall
hide
thy
womanhood
,
and
consecrate
my
martyrdome
,
&c.
And
by
this
meane
the
virgin
escaped
,
and
saued
her
virginitie
.
The
summe
is
this
,
that
our
virgines
and
maides
of
honour
,
and
of
all
sorts
,
should
in
their
solemnities
and
feastes
,
be
like
vnto
these
virgines
,
that
is
,
in
their
behauiour
,
apparell
,
fashion
,
to
carrie
themselues
,
as
it
becommeth
virgines
attending
vpon
this
Queene
,
that
was
all
glorious
within
.
Now
I
will
come
to
the
last
part
.
Vers.
16.
In
stead
of
thy
fathers
,
shall
thy
children
be
:
thou
shall
place
them
for
princes
in
all
the
earth
.
25.
The
last
point
,
wherein
the
glorie
of
this
Spouse
is
set
foorth
,
is
the
fruitfull
issue
and
happie
posteritie
,
which
this
honourable
Queene
should
be
encreased
with
,
wherein
spiritually
,
and
more
specially
is
described
,
the
wonderfull
encrease
of
the
Church
of
God
,
which
should
bee
called
of
the
Gentiles
:
as
the
Apostle
to
this
purpose
alleageth
the
prophecie
of
Isay
54.
1.
Reioyce
thou
barren
,
that
bearest
no
children
,
breake
foorth
and
crie
thou
that
trauellest
not
,
for
the
desolate
hath
many
mo
children
,
them
she
which
hath
an
husband
,
Gal.
4.
27.
And
as
this
Psalme
saith
,
that
her
sons
shall
be
princes
in
al
lands
.
So
the
Prophet
Isay
saith
:
Kings
shal
be
thy
nursing
fathers
;
and
Queenes
thy
ursing
mothers
.
cap.
49.
23.
And
againe
,
Thou
shalt
sucke
the
milke
of
the
Gentiles
,
and
shalt
sucke
the
breast
of
Kings
:
cap.
60.
16.
The
Church
is
nourished
of
Kings
and
Princes
,
Sarah
,
She
shall
be
the
mother
of
nations
,
and
Kings
of
people
shall
come
of
her
,
Genes.
17.
16.
which
was
then
fulfilled
,
when
the
Kings
of
the
Gentiles
were
conuerted
to
the
faith
of
Sarah
.
So
the
Apostle
maketh
the
earthly
Ierusalem
to
answere
vnto
Agar
the
bond-woman
,
Ierusalem
,
which
is
aboue
,
the
mother
of
vs
all
;
to
Sarah
the
freewoman
,
Galath.
4.
26.
which
Ierusalem
,
as
Cyril
saith
,
was
at
the
first
barren
,
but
now
hath
many
children
:
So
Heuah
,
being
so
called
,
because
shee
was
the
mother
of
all
liuing
,
was
a
type
of
the
Church
,
which
should
bee
the
mother
of
all
those
,
that
liue
vnto
God
:
as
Ambrose
well
obserueth
,
Haec
est
Eua
mater
emnium
viuentium
:
veniat
ergo
Deus
,
26.
For
hereby
is
the
glorie
of
God
set
foorth
,
and
his
name
aduanced
,
when
thorough
the
earth
praise
shall
bee
giuen
vnto
him
:
as
the
Prophet
saith
,
from
the
rising
of
the
sunne
to
the
going
downe
thereof
,
my
name
is
great
among
the
Gentiles
:
Malach.
1.
11.
As
the
multitude
of
children
are
the
strength
of
the
parents
,
like
a
quiuer
full
of
arrowes
,
Psalm
.
127.
4.
and
as
the
honour
of
a
King
is
in
the
multitude
of
people
,
Prou.
14.
28.
so
it
is
more
to
the
glorie
of
God
,
when
many
Nations
are
conuerted
vnto
him
.
And
so
Wisedome
saith
,
I
tooke
my
solace
in
the
compasse
of
the
earth
:
Pro.
8.
31.
As
in
heauen
,
the
Lord
hath
an
infinit
armie
of
holy
Angels
,
thousand
thousands
minister
vnto
him
:
Dan.
7.
10.
so
is
it
his
glorie
to
haue
multitude
of
seruants
in
earth
;
who
therefore
are
for
number
likened
to
the
droppes
of
the
morning
dew
:
Psalm.
110.
3.
and
to
an
ouerspreading
cloud
,
and
as
a
companie
of
doues
,
which
flie
to
their
windowes
:
Isai.
60.
8.
And
as
the
heare
and
lockes
of
the
head
,
are
an
ornament
to
the
bodie
;
so
the
numbers
of
faithfull
people
,
which
are
as
the
heares
of
the
Church
,
compared
to
flockes
of
goates
,
Cantic.
6.
4.
doe
make
her
amiable
and
louely
in
the
sight
of
God
.
27.
This
plentifull
encrease
of
the
Church
of
God
was
diuersly
prefigured
in
the
old
Testament
:
Tertullian
will
haue
it
set
foorth
in
the
birth
of
Isaac
and
Iacob
,
&c.
Iustine
Martyr
picketh
as
much
out
of
that
prophecie
of
Moses
concerning
Ioseph
:
His
hornes
as
the
hornes
of
an
vnicorne
,
with
them
he
shall
smite
the
people
together
:
Deut.
33.
15.
This
vnicornes
horne
he
vnderstandeth
to
be
the
crosse
of
Christ
,
which
riseth
vp
in
one
shanke
,
but
then
brancheth
out
aboue
:
and
so
saith
he
,
the
Gentiles
,
by
the
mysterie
of
Christs
crosse
,
were
smitten
through
as
with
hornes
,
and
so
were
conuerted
vnto
God
.
Ambrose
to
this
purpose
applieth
that
saying
in
the
Canticles
;
the
Church
of
the
Iewes
saith
thus
of
the
Church
of
the
Gentiles
;
Our
sister
hath
little
breasts
:
Moras
innectebant
,
I
had
need
of
many
houres
to
declare
it
.
28.
There
are
three
vsuall
expositions
of
this
place
,
which
are
receiued
of
the
fathers
.
The
first
is
that
of
Ambrose
,
who
by
the
fathers
here
vnderstandeth
the
Gentiles
:
29.
Therefore
it
is
a
weake
collection
,
penes
principes
seculares
sed
Episcopos
,
is
not
in
the
power
of
secular
Princes
,
but
of
Bishops
:
whom
hee
supposeth
here
to
be
vnderstood
by
Princes
:
1.
I
haue
shewed
,
that
this
is
not
the
meaning
of
this
Scripture
:
or
if
they
will
needs
haue
it
meant
of
spiritual
Princes
,
I
say
with
Hierome
,
intelligamus
Apostolos
,
let
vs
vnderstand
the
Apostles
,
whom
Christ
sent
to
preach
to
the
end
of
the
world
:
but
ordinarie
Bishops
haue
not
such
a
large
commission
to
goe
ouer
the
world
,
neither
can
arrogace
to
themselues
that
authoritie
which
the
Apostles
had
.
2.
Allow
it
to
be
vnderstood
of
Bishops
,
how
are
they
Princes
?
in
spiritualibus
,
in
spirituall
things
,
as
their
owne
Lyranus
saith
,
and
as
Hierome
well
expoundeth
,
Thou
hast
made
them
Princes
,
that
is
,
in
populis
fecisti
praeceptores
,
thou
hast
made
them
teachers
among
the
people
:
who
denieth
,
but
that
it
belongeth
to
Pastors
to
giue
precepts
to
the
people
?
that
is
not
to
raigne
as
Princes
in
the
Church
,
and
so
superiour
to
Kings
.
3.
And
if
Bellarmine
may
haue
his
saying
,
then
is
euery
Bishop
a
spirituall
prince
,
and
absolute
in
his
Diocesse
:
the
Pope
then
shall
not
bee
;
the
onely
Ecclesiasticall
Prince
.
30.
An
other
such
like
glosse
they
haue
,
Quae
de
ecclesia
generaliter
hic
dicuntur
,
ad
Mariam
specialiter
referri
possunt
:
The
things
that
are
heere
generally
spoken
of
the
Church
,
may
be
more
specially
referred
vnto
Marie
:
But
if
this
be
applyed
to
Marie
it
maketh
against
themselues
,
their
blasphemous
adoration
,
and
idolatrous
inuocation
o●
Marie
will
fall
to
ground
:
for
heere
Christ
is
made
her
Lord
,
and
she
is
to
worship
him
:
but
the
Romanists
grossely
make
her
equall
to
her
sonne
:
as
one
saith
:
Filij
gloriam
cum
matre
,
non
tam
communem
iudico
,
quam
eandem
.
I
Iudge
the
glory
of
the
Sonne
,
not
so
much
to
be
common
with
the
mother
,
Maries
Court
.
&c.
And
Bellarmine
the
oracle
of
the
rest
is
not
farre
off
from
such
blasphemous
speeches
in
extolling
of
the
Virgin
Marie
:
for
hee
defendeth
that
she
may
be
called
,
our
life
,
hope
,
mother
of
mercie
,
and
that
they
may
say
vnto
her
in
a
good
sense
,
as
it
is
in
their
superstitious
Antiphonie
:
Iesum
benedictum
fructum
ventris
tui

post
hoc
exilium

Psalm.

4.
Blessed
is
the
man
that
maketh
the
Lord
his
hope
:
and
in
many
places
of
the
Psalms
the
Prophet
professeth
,
that
the
Lord
is
his
trust
.
Psalm.

22.
and
in
diuers
other
places
:
yea
hee
giueth
this
reason
,
why
hee
putteth
his
trust
in
God
:
I
trusted
in
thee
O
Lord
,
I
saide
thou
art
my
God
,
Psalm.
31.
14.
Therefore
our
trust
must
be
onely
in
God
:
If
then
they
will
make
the
Virgine
Marie
our
hope
,
consequently
she
must
be
God
.
And
to
be
a
Father
of
mercies
,
is
a
title
peculiar
to
God
.
2.
Cor.
1.
3.
They
then
in
calling
the
Virgin
Mary
the
mother
of
mercies
,
therein
make
her
equall
vnto
God
.
And
Christ
saith
of
himselfe
:
I
am
the
way
,
the
truth
and
the
life
.
Iohn
.
14.
6.
In
making
her
then
our
life
,
they
rob
Christ
of
his
due
:
And
it
is
his
office
also
to
shew
vs
the
Father
:
Iohn
.
1.

and
,

10.
Now
all
these
blasphemous
prerogatiues
which
they
ascribe
vnto
the
virgine
Mary
,
their
owne
glosse
vpon
this
Psalme
ouerthroweth
▪
applying
it
to
the
Virgine
Marie
:
for
of
Christ
:
it
is
said
,
hee
is
thy
Lord
,
and
worship
thou
him
,
ver.
11.
the
virgine
Mary
though
she
be
to
bee
honoured
of
vs
as
a
blessed
Saint
,
yet
is
not
to
bee
worshipped
together
with
Christ
,
but
is
together
with
the
Saints
to
worship
Christ
:
her
carnall
prerogatiue
in
being
the
mother
of
Christ
was
not
so
great
,
as
her
spirituall
priuiledge
of
beleeuing
in
Christ
:
as
hee
himselfe
saith
:
when
a
certaine
woman
had
cried
out
vnto
him
,
blessed
is
the
wombe
that
bare
thee
,
and
the
paps
that
gaue
thee
sucke
,
hee
answered
,
yea
rather
blessed
are
they
,
that
heare
the
word
of
God
,
and
keepe
it
.
Luke
11.
28.
So
also
in
another
place
he
saith
:
my
mother
,
and
my
brethren
are
those
which
heere
the
word
of
God
and
doe
it
.
Luk.
8.
22.
vpon
which
words
Tertullian
thus
obserueth
:
Non
matris
vterum
et
vbera
negans
,
sed
feliciores
designans
,
qui
verbum
Dei
audiunt
.
lib.
de

Christ
.
Not
denying
his
mothers
wombe
,
and
breasts
,
but
counting
them
more
happy
which
heare
the
word
of
God
,
&c.
31.
Now
in
the
last
place
for
the
application
of
this
text
,
both
touching
the
mysticall
,
as
also
the
historicall
sense
:
first
we
see
all
this
heere
spoken
of
by
the
Prophet
,
to
be
verified
in
the
Church
:
say
not
vnto
thy
neighbour
goe
,
and
come
againe
,
and
to
motrow
I
will
giue
thee
,
if
thou
now
hast
it
:
Pro.
3.
28.
As
manna
was
gathered
in
the
sixe
daies
against
the
seuenth
:
so
we
must
finish
all
our
works
in
this
life
for
the
next
:
Exod.
26.
23.
31.
Now
to
shut
vp
all
in
a
word
:
and
to
apply
this
text
briefly
to
this
present
occasion
:
God
grant
vnto
this
Honorable
Marriage
the
like
fruit
and
ioyfull
issue
,
which
is
promised
heere
vnto
this
princely
spouse
:
in
steed
of
thy
fathers
shall
thy
children
be
,
whom
thou
mayest
make
Princes
&c.
The
Psalmist
saith
,
children
are
the
inheritance
of
the
Lord
,
and
the
fruit
of
the
wombe
is
his
reward
.
Psalm.
127.
3.
The
Lord
adde
this
inheritance
also
to
the
goodly
inheritance
of
these
noble
Princes
:
and
seale
vnto
them
this
fruite
among
other
rewards
;
whereof
wee
all
conceiue
great
hope
,
seeing
not
the
augmentation
of
wealth
,
nor
encrease
of
dominion
,
but
the
combination
of
religion
,
and
propagation
of
the
Gospel
is
principally
sought
in
this
hopeful
mariage
:
which
is
now
happily
con
summate
,
for
procreating
of
posterit●
,
not
satisfying
of
pleasure
,
where
the
intendment
is
,
y
●
generation
should
but
make
a
way
for
regeneration
as
Augustine
saith
:
beatam
se
inde
putauit
,
shee
thereby
counted
her selfe
happy
:
so
God
make
these
honourable
Princes
happy
in
their
issue
:
and
God
make
this
vertuous
Princesse
a
Sarah
,
which
is
,
Princesse
,
that
she
may
be
the
mother
of
nations
and
kings
,
as
the
Lord
promised
to
Sarah
,
Gen.
17.
16.
The
Lord
make
her
like
Rebecca
,
grow
into
thousand
thousands
,
and
that
her
seed
may
possesse
the
gate
of
her
enemies
:
as
Rebeccah
was
blessed
:
Genesis
24.
60.
Which
the
gracious
Lord
graunt
for
his
Christs
sake
,
FINIS
.
