144 ENGLISH DOMESTIC RELATIONS as queen, leads a discourse on the duties of a wife. Vives and Erasmus are introduced as interlocutors, but neither has much to say. On the whole, the dialogue falls short of Castiglione's in having less exchange of opinion and less repartee and in the absence of the wisdom of a Bembo. A book by Tasso, translated by Thomas Kyd in 1588 1 under the title of The Housholders Philosophic, though similar in many ways to the Cortegiano, is not a conversation but a monolo...gue in a typical Italian setting on the usual house- hold subjects. The poet's ideal of marriage is better ex- pressed in the dialogue with his cousin Hercules, entitled Of Manage and Wiuing, which was translated by R. T. In 1599. Here, woman is apotheosized in Platonic love; marriage is apostrophized thus: "O sweete conioyning of loyall hearts, O dulcet union of our soules togither, O most louely nuptuall knot, most chaste, pure and religious marriage yoake, who are rather a pleasing ease, and a most welcome delight to support and beare, then any hard weight or greeuous burthen to sustaine: rather a releeuing comfort that vpholdeth vs euery way, then a troublesome labour, that any way paineth us.
