Holy Marriage, I say, First, for that it is a holy remedy, instituted of God for such as otherwise cannot contain to keep their Vessel in honesty and honour, it being hbetter to marry then to burn: wherefore for iavoiding of fornication, let every man have his Wife, and every woman her husband, saith the Apostle. Again, kMarriage is honourable among all, or in all things, and the Bed undefiled: But Whoremongers and Adulterers God will judge.
