1But another cross in Sarah upon occasion of Hagar, there fell out a great jar betwixt him and Sarah, and she that ever before had showed her self a dutiful and respective wife, now brake forth into much tartness and passion with him, eagerly and wrongfully charging him to maintain Hagar against her, and to be the cause of her stubborn and contemptuous carriage. This sounded harshly in Abraham's ears, and this language was tedious, to be so rated by Sarah, it made him think the case strangely altered. Indeed he by his wisdom calmed the tempest very soon, it continued not long, but it was a sour thing for the time; many a man hath the same trouble for matter, but more frequent and more lasting. A wives passions are an ⟨p. 133⟩husbands sufferings, her anger and discontent and brawls with maids and men and children sometimes fall upon him, and she is ready causelessly to quarrel with him, when she is displeased with them, this cross is so much the more tedious, by how much a man doth more affect and love his wife, and sometimes too it is aggravated by this, that he hath some way been an occasion of it though unwittingly.
