Matrimony is Holy and Honourable in all persons,1 and an undefiled bed, as saith S. Paul. Yet is it not lawful for them to marry* which either have by deliberate vow dedicated all manner their chastity unto God.3 or have received Holy Order. For the vowed be forbidden Marriage by express Word of God: Those that have taken Holy Orders, by Tradition of the Apostles, and Ancient ordinance of the Church.
