A49866	A fountain of gardens watered by the rivers of divine pleasure, and springing up in all the variety of spiritual plants; blown up the pure breath into a paradise, sending forth their sweet savours, and strong odours, for soul-refreshing. By Jane Lead.; Fountain of gardens. Vol. 1.	Lead, Jane, 1623-1704.	1696 (1696)	Wing L783AA; ESTC R212811	225,353	601

firm_o persuade_v than_o i_o be_o of_o the_o truth_n of_o saint_n peter_n word_n that_o the_o heaven_n must_v receive_v christ_n till_o the_o time_n of_o restitution_n but_o then_o i_o be_o not_o

nay_o i_o do_v not_o comphehend_v why_o he_o may_v not_o manifest_v himself_o in_o this_o manner_n to_o thousand_o of_o person_n in_o as_o many_o distant_a place_n at_o the_o same_o time_n and_o never_o all_o the_o while_n come_v down_o from_o the_o throne_n of_o his_o glory_n in_o the_o heaven_n i_o dare_v not_o limit_v the_o operation_n of_o his_o spirit_n which_o pierce_v every_o where_o i_o have_v much_o rather_o adore_v they_o and_o wait_v in_o a_o childlike_a disposition_n to_o be_v discipline_v by_o he_o and_o indeed_o when_o i_o consider_v the_o utter_a impossibility_n to_o explain_v any_o thing_n of_o the_o soul_n nature_n without_o admit_v his_o immediate_a causality_n and_o influence_n i_o do_v not_o think_v it_o so_o very_o strange_a to_o conceive_v that_o he_o shall_v by_o open_v the_o inmost_a centre_n of_o that_o principle_n or_o life_n which_o be_v his_o own_o inbrethe_n reveal_v himself_o to_o it_o as_o present_v and_o hold_v therewith_o a_o very_a familiar_a communication_n and_o see_v it_o be_v undeniable_a that_o christ_n since_o his_o reception_n into_o heaven_n have_v actual_o both_o appear_v and_o speak_v to_o some_o person_n by_o the_o sacred_a record_n themselves_o it_o be_v no_o more_o difficult_a to_o suppose_v that_o he_o may_v do_v so_o again_o whenever_o he_o please_v and_o it_o will_v be_v certain_a that_o this_o can_v never_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o that_o text_n which_o this_o gentleman_n seem_v to_o understand_v he_o that_o have_v appear_v to_o saint_n paul_n and_o to_o saint_n john_n since_o his_o

suppose_v to_o have_v bind_v up_o himself_o for_o ever_o not_o to_o manifest_v himself_o in_o the_o same_o or_o like_a manner_n by_o vision_n intellectual_a revelation_n or_o ecstasy_n to_o any_o other_o while_o they_o be_v in_o these_o mortal_a body_n for_o the_o sake_n of_o some_o great_a and_o glorious_a good_n now_o what_o there_o be_v in_o all_o that_o book_n so_o far_o as_o it_o be_v
