It is a great fault in a wife to be angry and find fault with the husband without due cause, and to lay blame upon him when he deserveth it not, as did Sarah upon Abraham. It is contrary to the reverence, obedience, and love which they owe to their husbands: it is a means of estranging the husbands heart, by putting him into frequent fits of anger.

You wives be sorrowful if you have in such a case over-shot your selves, and now labour for so much discretion and meekness of wisdom that may preserve your tongues from speaking passionately and unadvisedly to those whom the Lord commands you to fear. What a fond speech was Rachels? Give me children. Beware that anger do not fill your mouths with foolish words. And if this be a fault in your Wives, good men, know it is a great fault in your selves, in whom more wisdom is required. Nourish peace betwixt your selves, your yoke-fellows, and shun angry and brawling words, that breed such a koare of unkindness as sometimes runs forth into alienation, and perpetual jarring.
