M. Fekenham.

* 1.1And when your L. shall be able to proue, that these wordes of Paule: Mulieres in Ecclesijs taceant, &c. Let the wemen kepe silence in the Churche: for it is not permitted vnto them there to speake: but let them liue vnder obedience, like as the Law of God appointeth thē, and if they be desirous to learne any thing, let them aske their husbands at home, for it is a shameful and rebukeful thing, for a woman to speake in the Church of Christ. When your L. shalbe able to proue, that these wordes of Paule, were not as wel spoken of Quenes, Duchesses, and of noble Women, as of the meane and in∣feriour sorte of Women: like as these wordes of almigh∣tie God, spoken in the plague and punishment first vnto our mother Eue for her offence: and secondarily by her vnto al women without exception. vidz. Multiplicabo ae∣rumnas,* 1.2 &c. I shal encrease thy dolours, sorowes and concei∣uings, and in paine and trauaile, thou shalt bring forth thy chil∣dren,

& thou shalt liue vnder the authority & power of thy hus∣bād and he shal haue the gouernment and dominion ouer thee. Whan your L. shall be able to proue, anye exception to be made eyther in these woordes spoken in the olde lawe, by the mouth of God: eyther in the wordes before spoken of the Apostle Paule in the newe: than I shall in like mā∣ner yeelde, and with most humble thankes, thinke my selfe very well satisfied in conscience, not onely touching all the afore alleaged testimonies, but also in this seconde chiefe pointe.
