Again, there can be no sure-making, and consequently no marriage with such a one, as either hath been divorced without a sufficient cause, or hath wrongfully forsaken and rejected a lawful mate before. To this purpose saith our Saviour Christ, Matth. 19. 9. I say unto you, that whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for whoredom, & marrieth another, committeth adultery; and whosoever marrieth her which is divorced, committeth adultery. And Saint Paul, 1. Cor. 7. 11. But & if she depart, let her remain ⟨p. 59⟩unmarried, or be reconciled unto her husband, and let not the husband put away his wife.
