Ye wyues submitte your selues obediently vnto your husbandes, so besemeth it suche as haue taken vpō them Christes name, for whom it is mete in all goodnes to go beyond other. Ye husbandes againe loue your wyues, whom ye must remembre in suche condicion to be subiecte vnto you, that yet to them ye should not be sharpe and bitter. Ye children be in all thinges obedient to your fathers and mothers, though they com∣maunde you paineful busines, so that the same be not vngodly. For it is Christes wyll and pleasure that ye should so do.
