More Ketubah musings

Yesterday I talked about my small collection of family ketubah. Now the more I think about the english that I read I would like somthihng like that to continue the pattern.The old language on these ketubahs from 1898, 1933 and 1959 say what I want. A ketubah is noit an expression of love, but a contract and the english should b emenaingful but not mushy. There are obligations between husband and wife and both need to stand up to them. Obligations that are financial, physical and emotional. What I read does all that.
