Great was his elevation to have a loving bride.
This woman she was taken from under Adam’s arm;
And she must be protected from injury and harm.
This woman was not taken from Adam’s feet, we see;
And she must not be abus-ed, the meaning seems to be.
The husband is commanded to love his loving bride,
And live as does a Christian, and for his house provide.
The woman is commanded her husband to obey,
In everything that’s lawful, until her dying day.
Avoiding all offenses, not sow the seed of strife,
