Answer:

take control of herself and emotions.

Step-by-step explanation:

The the Wife of Bath was an honourable queen who believed that a woman's most important role and aspiration was to be in charge of her own partner and lover.

If she would have given an advice to the speaker in “The Wife’s Lament", she would advice her to take control of herself and emotions because she believes that women were created to take control of men. If a women cannot take control of herself first, she would never be able to take control of a man.
