IT is generally very idle for people in the vicinity, to interpose in the quarrels of married persons. Marriage obliges, and almost necessitates, a man and his wife, to be of a mind, in things of great consequence — Their quarrels arise from some trifles: a mere momentary humor, or accidental word, and counter passions, have more influence in reconciling them, than their reason. Hence this important moral arises; that married persons never make complaints of each other abroad, and that their neighbors interpose in none of their differences — lest work be made for repentance.
