CHAPTER 3. OF THE CONVERSION OF HER SPOUSE AND THAT THEY FORSOOK THE WORLD AND LIVED CHASTELY

And when she so a good while had lived with John, her spouse, in matrimony, our Lord beheld the meekness of his maiden and graciously heard her prayers: for John was inspired to have Mary as a guardian, whom he had first to wife. He made the chaste man guardian of his maiden, that she should have solace of her keeper, and left to her a true overseer, that she might more freely serve Our Lord.
