THE
PLEASURES
OF
MATRIMONY,
&c.
It is a strange thing, that people should ask of
the fifteen comforts or pleasures of Matrimony,
as if they could he numbered; whereas I affirm,
that the pleasures of matrimony are numberless.
No wonder then there is nothing more desired, or even coveted, than matrimony, and that
it has been in such high esteem among all nations from the beginning of the world. It is
true there has been a clamour against it; and
many that condemn it, and cry it down, mistake
comforts for discomforts.
