CHAPTER XI .-- COMPANIONSHIP IN MARRIAGE.
"Kindness in women, not their beauteous looks, Shall win my love."-- SHAKSPEARE.
"In the husband Wisdom, In the wife Gentleness."-- GEORGE HERBERT.
"If God had designed woman as man's master, He would have taken her from his head; If as his slave, He would have taken her from his feet; but as He designed her for his companion and equal, He took her from his side."-- SAINT AUGUSTINE.--'DE CIVITATE DEI.' "Who can find a virtuous woman?
for her price is far above rubies....

Her husband is known in the gates, and he sitteth among the elders of the land....

Strength and honour are her clothing, and she shall rejoice in time to come.

She openeth her mouth with wisdom, and in her tongue is the law of kindness.

She looketh well to the ways of her husband, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
