In the beginning also of the same Chapter also he saith: It is good that a man should not deal with a woman. Notwithstanding for avoyding fornication (quod he) let every man have his wife, and every woman have her husband. He saith here: Quisque & quaeque every man and every woman. And not quidam, 1nec quaedam, some man nor some woman: He excepteth neither priest nor nun, but every one both man & woman is bound for avoiding of burning and fornication to marry, not having the gift given of chastity.

1The same also confirmeth your own law▪ dist. 29. where it is written thus: Si quis discernit presbyterum coniugatum, tanquam occasion nuptiarum, quòd offerre non debeat, anathema sit. If any man do hold that a priest being married, in that respect that he is married,2 ought not to minister in his function: be he accursed. And in the 31. dist. Si quis vituperat nuptias, & dormientem cum viro suo fidelem, ac religiosam detestatur, aut culpabilem aestimat, velut quae regnum Dei introire non possit, anathema sit. If any man shall find fault with matrimony; and detest a faithful and devout woman lying with her husband, and think her culpable, as one that could not therefore, enter into the kingdom of God: be he accursed. And every where else, such like are to be seen.
