COUNSEL -FOR THE HUSBANDS

Happy is the man who is happy in his wife. Let him love her as he loves himself, and a little better, for she is his better half.

PP91 He is kind to himself who is kind to his wife. PT92 Unkind and domineering husbands ought not to pretend to be Christians, for they act clean contrary to Christ’s commands. PT92 Taking them (wives) for all in all, they are most angelical creatures, and a great deal too good for half the husbands. PT119 A true wife is her husband’s better half, his lump of delight, his flower of beauty, his guardian angel, and his heart’s treasure. PT120 His rib is the best bone in his body.

PT122 Say what you will of your wife’s advice, it’s as likely as not you will be sorry you did not take it. PT129
