This song was made in a period of history when wives were considered as much possessions than they were human beings. Marriages often were arranged, certainly among the nobility, as a means of acquiring property and status. This theme is a common on in the ballads - Lord Thomas and Fair Eleanor, The Two Sisters, The Seven Gypsies, Tiftie's Annie et al.
