57. You have no longer any reason for marrying,
you have some to intercede for you. Say not, “I am
desolate.” This is the complaint of one who wishes to
marry.
Say not,
“I am alone.” Chastity seeks solitude: the
modest seek privacy, the immodest company. But you have necessary
business; you have also one to plead for you. You are afraid of
your adversary; the Lord Himself will intervene with the judge and
say: “Judge for the fatherless, and justify the
widow.” Isa. i. 17.
