This I say of favour / not of commandment.§B For I would that all men were as I my self am: but every man hath his proper gift of God / one after this manner / another after that. I say unto the unmarried men & widows: it is good for them if they abide even as I do. But & if they cannot abstain / let them marry. For it is better to marry then to burn.
This I saye of faveour / not of cōmaundement.§B For I wolde that all men were as I my selfe am: but every man hath his proper gyfte of God / one after this māner / another after that. I saye vnto the vnmaried men & widdowes: it is good for them yf they abyde evē as I do. But & yf they cānot abstayne / let them mary. For it is better to mary then to burne.
Unto the married command not I / but the1 Lord: that the wife separate not her self ⟨p. ccxlv⟩from the man. If she separate her self / let2 her remain unmarried / or be reconciled unto her husband again. And let not the husband put away his wife from him.
Vnto the maryed cōmaunde not I / but the1 Lorde: that the wyfe separate not her selfe ⟨p. ccxlv⟩from the man. Yf she separate her selfe / let2 her remayne vnmaryed / or be reconciled vnto her husbande agayne. And let not the husbande put awaye his wyfe from him.
