A30127Are they to be the audible mouth there, before all, to God?
A30127But I Answer, yet limited, and confined to Order, and manner of Performance: Women may, yea ought to Pray; what then?
A30127But Women have sometimes cases, which modesty will not admit should be made known to Men, what must they do then?
A30127But can not the Church, and every woman in it, build up themselves without their Womans Meetings?
A30127But can women no other way be built up in their most holy faith, but by Meetings of their own without their men?
A30127But what must they do that have unbelieving ones?
A30127But why must the Women have shame- facedness, since they live honestly as the Men?
A30127Do you think that God gave the VVoman her hair, that she might deck her self, and set off her fleshly beauty therewith?
A30127Else how can that Assembly say AMEN at their Prayer or giving of thanks?
A30127First he begins with this question, Whether Women fearing God may Meet to pray together, and whether it be Lawfull for them so to do?

A26092And now, what remains for them to do at Night, but to review the Actions of the Day?

A26092For, since GOD has given Women as well as Men intelligent Souls, why should they be forbidden to improve them?
A26092How can she be furnished with any solid Principles whose very Instructors are Froth and emptiness?
A26092How their Devotions were perform''d?

A47200And did not he command her to speak unto the Apostles, and Instruct them concerning his Resurrection?
A47200And did not the Lord after his Resurrection first of all appear unto a woman, to wit, Mary Magdalene?
A47200And is not this fulfilled abundantly?
A47200And now, How can these Men be taught of the Lord himself, or immediately to Preach Christ, who deny the thing it self?
A47200And that the Apostle saith, if they continue what is to be understood by these words?
A47200And then what is their Preaching of him?
A47200And was not this Convention a Church?
A47200And what sort of Faith was this?

A47200And yet doth not this Principle of theirs, That wicked Men may be Preachers, and ought to be Received, lay a Foundation for a wicked 〈 ◊ 〉?
A47200And 〈 ◊ 〉 〈 ◊ 〉 being laid with their own Hands, will not wicked Men come in thick and throng?
A47200But which of them can say in the sight of God, at this day, they preach freely without an eye to money or outward reward?
A47200But, How came this Woman to be a Preacher of Christ?
A47200Come, See a Man that told me all things that ever I did, is not this the Christ?
A47200Come, said she, see a man who hath told me all that ever I did, Is not this the Christ?
A47200Could their voice be heard in the streets?
A47200Did they preach then openly and in view?
A47200First, Who taught her?
A47200Has not Man, and the power and dread of Man, oft shut their mouths, and Man, with a little of his forbearance, or winking at them, opened them again?
A47200Hath he lost the power of his Speech, or his willingness to speak, that he hath been so long silent?
A47200He hath told me all that ever I did, is not this the Christ?
A47200How can we have Charity unto them to believe they are so taught, while they deny that any are so taught in those days?
A47200Is he not the Light of the world, who lighteth every man that cometh into the world, that all men through him might believe?
A47200Is the Lord wholly absent from his Church?
A47200Or if he be present with her, and in her, doth he never speak himself?
A47200Secondly, Who called her?
A47200That no Women are to speak in the Church; or that Women in no case are to speak in the Church?
A47200Was it onely an Historical Faith, which Hypocrites, and ungodly Men have, whereof Paul and David spake?
A47200What great matter can they tell of Christ?
A47200What should men hear them for?
A47200What sort of Women then is it, whom Paul doth not permit to speak in the Church?
A47200Where is the profitting of the people?
A47200Whether outward and Natural Children; or such Children as Bernard expoundeth to be good works?
A47200Who, among them all, thus preach him from their own experience?
A47200Yea, do not many of themselves see it, and have they not complained of it?
A47200and that both in Believers, and Unbelievers, doth he not by his Spirit convince the world of Sin?
A47200doe they not remain still in their sins and wickedness?
A47200how much of this has been seen these years by past among these called, or accounted the best sort of them?
A47200or who preach him as the Psalmist did, who said Come, and I will tell you what God hath done for my Soul?
A47200what great or excellent thing can they attain by their Preaching, who deny that they can either hear him, or see him while they are upon Earth?

A26097A peaceable Woman indeed will not carry it so far, she will neither question her Husband''s Right nor his Fitness to Govern, but how?
A26097Are the Men only in fault?
A26097Because she was made to be a Slave to his Will, and has no higher end than to Serve and Obey him?
A26097But do the Women never choose amiss?
A26097But how can a Man respect his Wife when he has a contemptible Opinion of her and her Sex?
A26097But how can a Woman scruple intire Subjection, how can she forbear to admire the worth and excellency of the Superior Sex, if she at all considers it?
A26097But if Marriage be such a blessed State, how comes it, may you say, that there are so few happy Marriages?
A26097But if her Reasons are good, where is his Justice in obliging her to quit them?
A26097But some refractory Woman perhaps will say how can this be?
A26097But upon what are the Saytrs against Marriage grounded?
A26097But what Remedies can be administred, what Relief expected, when Devotion, the only true support in Distress, is turn''d into Ridicule?
A26097But who shall dare to shew the Lady her Danger, when will it be seasonable to give her friendly Notice?
A26097Can a Woman then be too much upon her Guard?
A26097Can he think there is any Gratitude due to her whose utmost services he exacts as strict Duty?
A26097Do not they make Laws and continually repeal and amend them?
A26097For can it be fit to rush into Temptations when we are taught every day to pray against them?
A26097For pray, what do Men propose to themselves in Marriage?
A26097For what is that which now adays passes under the name of Wit?
A26097Have not all the great Actions that have been perform''d in the World been done by them?
A26097Have not they founded Empires and over- turn''d them?
A26097How many Acres?
A26097How must a Man chuse, and what Qualities must encline a Woman to accept, that so our Marry''d couple may be as happy as that State can make them?
A26097How then can I Love?
A26097If he misemploys, does he not abuse it?
A26097Indeed what is it they ca n''t perform, when they attempt it?
A26097Is it not rather an hindrance to that Service they expect, as being an undeniable and constant Proof how unworthy they are to receive it?
A26097Is it possible for her to believe him Wise and Good who by a thousand Demonstrations convinces her and all the World of the contrary?
A26097Is it the being ty''d to One that offends us?
A26097Now what is it that strikes a judicious Tast?
A26097Or how much ready Coin?
A26097Or what if Visits grow a little more frequent?
A26097So far I agree with him: But if she goes on to infer, that therefore he has not these Qualifications, where is his Right?
A26097Tell her of her own Good, you appear yet more ridiculous, for who can judge of her Happiness but her self?
A26097The Man has so much discernment, as to relish her Wit and Humour, and can she do less than be Partial to him who is so Just to her?
A26097The Man takes a loose, what shou''d hinder him?
A26097There may indeed be inconveniencies in a Married Life; but is there any Condition without them?
A26097Was it because there was no other way to obtain his Suit, and with an intention to Annul them when it shall be in his Power?
A26097What Gratitude can be sufficient for such Obligations?
A26097What Qualifications do they look after in a Spouse?
A26097What acknowledgments, what returns can he make?
A26097What follows then?
A26097What hurt in a Visit?
A26097What is it they can not do?
A26097What then is to be done?
A26097What will she bring is the first enquiry?
A26097Where then is his Sincerity?
A26097Who has not so much as that poor Excuse, Precedent and Example; or if she has, they are only such as all the World condemns?
A26097With what Face can he blame her for following his Example, and being as extravagant on the one Hand, as he is on the other?
A26097Wou''d it not be unreasonable and a piece of Ill- breeding to be shy of him who has no pretentions, or only such as are Just and Modest?
A26097Your whifling Wits may scoff at them, and what then?
A26097can she expect to be safe with him who has ruin''d others, and by the very same Methods he takes with her?

A10790Arria would die rather then bee led in triumph: did death redeem her?
A10790But what law exacts of her this justice?
A10790But why was Amalius slaine, not master of the opportunity hee knew not?
A10790But why would she die?
A10790Could shee hate her vertue, and her sin?
A10790Did hee teach her so to live that shee durst not die?
A10790Did her vertue attract Hiarbus?
A10790Did she not goe lower, sacrifice his soule to the furie of furies, her selfe?
A10790Did they weepe at their misfortunes?
A10790Had she been transported to a Nunnery, where vertue is necessitated, had not that been a slavery?

A10790Is beauty, the loadstar that attracts hearts of steel to it, the Orator that pleads against it selfe?
A10790Is there no refuge; no redemption?
A10790It is that inconsiderable atome of time that divides the body from the soule: what is it then in this afflicts us?
A10790It was Paetus slew her; Paetus?
A10790It was that mind that stoop''d not to her body, that made her of consequence; not her beauty: the other sullied, who but Amalius would value this?
A10790Nature bids us affect, not love our kindred; in this, affection screwd to love, is unnaturall: could she then marry Sichaeus, and not Hiarbus?

A10790She then did sacrifice her life to her honour: could not her insatiate thirst of glory bee slak''d but by her bloud?
A10790Shee was captivated by her owne beauty, and felt the greatest tyranny of it her selfe, why then also should her greatest offender bee unpunish''d?

A10790Where is then content, since banished the height of State?
A10790While Seneca was yet alive, she was dying; he dead, she return''d to life: Was her life vowed to him, when his death reviv''d her?
A10790Whither did her blind rage lead her, to punish innocence, to salve her honour that was not wounded?
A10790Whither do these crowns and scepters, the worlds magnalia, but indeed the balls of Fortune, hurrie thee, fond Leander?

A10790Why should( said he) this monster nothing so affright us?
A10790and was it not more unworthy Lucrece, not to endure the conquerour against her honour?
A10790awake your sleeping armory: is not your whole Hoast blasphem''d?

A10790can not these monsters move thee?
A10790can you behold without raine and thunder, your combin''d sorrow& rage?
A10790could she better revenge her of her vertue, then by her dishonour?
A10790did she think the Priest in Sichaeus a warrant for her incest, and not the King in Hiarbus for a lawfull contract?
A10790had she asmuch of woman as not to feare a death from her selfe, and not asmuch, as not to feare a dishonour from another?
A10790had she slaine Tarquin, her act had been no way to be justified; but how is this aggravated?

A10790is death due to innocence, or to adulterie?
A10790is it onely for this interim metamorphized into a beast?

A39031And how can their filthy Desire be call''d Love; when instead of Election there is nothing in it but a brutal Universality?
A39031And if we have a Love that is a little contrary to our humour, how do we entertain an eternal Sedition within our selves?
A39031And in truth, if we examine our Nature and Complexion before we addict our selves to Learning or any other Exercise?
A39031And in truth, to examine this matter throughly, what satisfaction can any seek in Romances which may not be found in History?
A39031And indeed what sort of Conformity can we find between the young and the old, who yet nevertheless do often mutually Love and Caress each other?
A39031And is it not a very Important and necessary thing to be taught these Matters before we launch into the World?
A39031And must it not be confess''d, That we are much more excusable when our Enemy kills us, than when we kill our selves?
A39031And others again who ravish us at the first sight, and afterwards displease us as much?
A39031And since the Church of God has admitted the Infidels themselves to Baptism, why may we not render their Fables also and their Histories Christian?
A39031And that on the other side, they have sometimes been the Springs and first Movers of the Bravest Actions?
A39031And that we dare not degrade Philosophy so as to make it the subject of Conversation?
A39031And to speak with reason how can it be imagin''d possible to read some Paragraphs in those Books without a great deal of danger?
A39031And what Vertue are they taught, what useful Knowledge are they possess''d with, by this Education?
A39031And what need to receive the Light of Art, when we have that of Nature?
A39031And what pretence can there be to believe that Fictions are more dangerous in Prose than in Verse?
A39031And why may not Love place it there where it was not?

A39031As for Disputing, who can acquire the Subtilty, and readiness necessary to it?
A39031As for Eloquence, who can acquire the Vigour of it?
A39031BUT IS IT NOT a thing yet more shameful; To see the Men some of them more addicted to this superfluity than the Women?

A39031I own that the Flatterers may abuse this excellent Vertue, but what one is there that they do not abuse?
A39031I ● it not then a great deal better that we love for the amiable Qualities that we see, than for an Inclination that is hidden from us?
A39031If I say I follow my Inclination in loving such a Person, may not she say she follows hers in not loving me?
A39031If I wish that she would renounce her Humour to satisfie mine; has not she right to pretend to the same advantage over me?
A39031If the Melancholy Humour has something that is Good, is it not also true, that there is in it something Evil?
