Chapter 22: Duty of a Husband

Take unto thyself a wife and obey the ordinance of God, take unto thyself a wife, and become a faithful member of society.
Examine with care and fix not suddenly. One’s future happiness depends on present decisions.
If much of her time is destroyed in dress and adornment; if she is enamored with her own beauty, and delighted with her own praise; if she laugheth much (at others[?]), and talketh loud, if her foot does not abide[?], and her eyes with boldness rove on the faces of men; though her beauty were as the sun in the firmament of heaven, turn thy face from her charms, they they face from her paths, and suffer not thy soul to be ensnared by the allurements of imagination.
But when thou findest sensibility of heart, joined with softness of manners, and accomplished mind, with a form agreeable to thy fancy, take her home to thy house, she is worthy to be thy friend, thy companion in life, the wit of thy heart. https://thewordcounter.com/what-does-brevity-is-the-soul-of-wit-mean/

Chapter 22 Duty of Husband v.1-4

Cherish her a blessing sent from Heaven. Let the kindness of your behavior endear thee heart.
She is the mistress of thy house; treat her therefore with respect, that thy servants may obey her.
Oppress not her inclination without cause; she is the partner of thy cares, make her also thy companion of thy pleasures.
Reprove her faults with gentleness; exact not her obedience with rigour.
Trust thy secrets in her breast; her counsels are sincere, thou shalt not be deceived.
Be faithful to her in bed; she is the mother of thy children.
When pain and sickness assail her; let thy tenderness soothe her affliction; a look from thee of pity and love shall alleviate her grief or instigate her pain and be more avail than ten physicians.
Consider the tenderness of her sex, the delicacy of her frame, and be not severe to her weakness, but remember thine own imperfections.
