If he cannot love his wife, whom God hath made of his own substance, and hath given her unto him, for ⟨image 131⟩his aide and comfort, whom will he love? Likewise, if the wife cannot humble herself and fit her self,1 to agree with her husband, whom God hath given her, to be her head, and framed her out of his body, with whom will she agree, and who shall be able to abide her? There is great contrariety betwixt dogs and Cats, yea such a natural hatred, as is not almost to be reconciled. And so likewise, between Wolves and Sheep: Lions and Oxen: And yet if they had been brought up together from their youth, their bringing up and company keeping, which they had had together, would work some power and efficacy to despoil them something of their nature, & so join themselves in unity together: Although they be beasts of sundry kinds, and marvellously differing, and contrary one to another. What sayest thou to this Jerome?
