¶ As concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man, not to touch a woman.
¶ I would have you without care, the single man careth for the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord:
For I would that all men were as I my self am: but every man hath his proper gift of god, one after this manner, another after that.
