Ruth3:10

10 And he said, Blessed be thou of the LORD, my daughter: for thou hast shewed more kindness in the latter end, than at the beginning, in as much as thou followedst not young men , whether poor, or rich.

Both to thy deceased Husband, the continuance of whose Name and Memory thou preferrest before the satisfaction of thy own Lust; and to thy Mother-in-law, whose Commands thou hast punctually obeyed, even with thy own hazard in so doubtful an Enterprize.

To seek thy Marriage either here, or in thy own Country, as thou wouldst have done if thou hadst not preferred Obedience to Gods Command, before the pleasing of thy self.
