If a damsel vow a vow unto y• Lord & bind herself being in her fathers house and unmarried: If her father hear her vow & bond which she hath made upon her soul / & hold his pease thereto: then all her vows & bonds which she hath made upon her soul shall stand in effect. But & if her father for bid her the same day that he heareth it / none of her vows nor bonds which she hath made upon her soul shall be of value / and the Lord shall forgive her / because her father forbade her.
