Titus2:4

That they may teach the young women to be sober , to love their husbands , to love their children .

Young Women, especially conversing amongst Heathens are prone to be light and airy, and over frolick, following the heat of their youthful temper, and forming their converse after the manner of others, which is a behaviour, though it may sute their youth, yet if they be Christians it will not sute their profession, which calls to them for more gravity; speak to them that are aged to mind them, to be sober.

It being natural for young Women to love their Husbands and Children; these precepts seem not so much to concern the things, as the manner of it, to love them as they ought to love them.
