Was she thy God that her thou didst obey Before His voice? Or was she made thy guide Superior, or but equal, that to her Thou didst resign thy manhood and the place Wherein God set thee ’bove her, made of thee 150And for thee, whose◦ perfection far excelled Hers in all real dignity? Adorned She was indeed and lovely to attract Thy love, not thy subjection, and her gifts Were such as under government well seemed, 155Unseemly to bear rule, which was thy part And person hadst thou known thyself aright.◦
