And he who hath stood stedfast in the heart -- not having necessity -- and hath authority over his own will, and this he hath determined in his heart -- to keep his own virgin -- doth well;

so that both he who is giving in marriage doth well, and he who is not giving in marriage doth better.

but in the most of them God was not well pleased, for they were strewn in the wilderness,

for thou, indeed, dost give thanks well, but the other is not built up!
