Comments: 
in the traditional proverb, the benefit of permanency over fleetingness is the import of the proverb. While a good wife will make a lasting union, a rainy season, no matter how good, is bound to pass. This meaning is loss in the alternate proverb, where the focus is on the bliss of marriage to a good wife
