25.  Nor again, on the other hand, in maintaining thy chastity be thou puffed up against those who walk in the humbler path of matrimony.  For as the Apostle saith, Let marriage be had in honour among all, and let the bed be undefiled Heb. xiii. 4..  Thou too who retainest thy chastity, wast thou not begotten of those who had married?  Because thou hast a possession of gold, do not on that account reprobate the silver.  But let those also be of good cheer, who being married use marriage lawfully; who make a marriage according to God’s ordinance, and not of wantonness for the sake of unbounded license; who recognise seasons of abstinence, that they may give themselves unto prayer 1 Cor. vii. 5.; who in our assemblies bring clean bodies as well as clean garments into the Church; who have entered upon matrimony for the procreation of children, but not for indulgence.
