it_o be_v no_o true_a and_o perfect_a contract_n and_o therefore_o may_v be_v break_v by_o parent_n and_o such_o as_o have_v authority_n herein_o because_o the_o party_n unpromised_a be_v not_o bind_v

in_o no_o wise_a to_o be_v omit_v in_o a_o contract_n five_o we_o say_v it_o must_v be_v between_o one_o man_n and_o one_o woman_n where_o first_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o it_o may_v not_o

after_o the_o example_n of_o holy_a woman_n which_o trust_v in_o god_n they_o be_v sober_a in_o outward_a apparel_n &_o garnish_v and_o deck_v inward_o with_o virtue_n of_o their_o mind_n as_o with_o
