Not equal, as their sex not equal seem’d,
For contemplation hee and valour form’d
For softness shee, and sweet attractive Grace,
Hee for God only, shee for God in him:

To whom thus Eve with perfect beauty adornd
My Author and Disposer, what thou bidst
Unargu’d I obey; so God ordains,
God is thy Law, thou mine; to know no more
Is woman’s happiest knowledge and her praise.”
