And let the officers speak unto the people ⟨p. XXXVI⟩saying: If any man have built a new house¹ and have not * dedicate it, let him goo and return to his house lest he dye in the battle, and another dedicate it. And if any man have planted a vineyard and have not made it common*, let him goo and return again unto² his house, lest he dye in the battle and another make it common. And if any man be betrothed unto a wife and have not taken her, let him goo and return again unto his house, lest he dye in the battle and another take her.
