passionate_o love_v and_o because_o there_o be_v not_o one_o thing_n here_o below_o that_o can_v express_v unto_o we_o the_o glory_n and_o happiness_n of_o paradise_n so_o many_o perfection_n be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v in_o one_o only_a thing_n therefore_o the_o holy_a ghost_n gather_v together_o all_o the_o excellency_n riches_n and_o beauty_n scatter_v about_o in_o the_o inferior_a creature_n and_o borrow_v the_o idea_n and_o notion_n of_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v rare_a and_o most_o glorious_a and_o that_o give_v we_o the_o great_a pleasure_n and_o satisfaction_n to_o

by_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n who_o be_v goodness_n itself_o shall_v bestow_v upon_o we_o another_o eden_n another_o garden_n of_o pleasure_n water_v with_o live_a water_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o it_o be_v the_o tree_n of_o life_n that_o bring_v forth_o its_o fruit_n every_o month_n instead_o of_o a_o earthly_a paradise_n subject_a to_o change_v we_o shall_v find_v a_o heavenly_a and_o a_o unchangeable_a paradise_n the_o earthly_a paradise_n be_v no_o more_o to_o be_v see_v it_o be_v think_v that_o it_o be_v swallow_v up_o and_o destroy_v by_o the_o water_n and_o

and_o tempest_n therefore_o st._n peter_n assure_v we_o that_o it_o be_v a_o incorruptible_a inheritance_n that_o fade_v not_o away_o it_o have_v no_o need_n of_o a_o elemental_a water_n for_o it_o be_v water_v every_o where_n with_o the_o river_n of_o live_a water_n that_o proceed_v from_o the_o throne_n of_o god_n and_o the_o lamb._n and_o whereas_o cherubim_v arm_v with_o a_o flame_a sword_n

legion_n of_o cherubim_n be_v to_o carry_v we_o up_o upon_o their_o wing_n to_o the_o true_a tree_n of_o life_n which_o stand_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o heavenly_a paradise_n and_o jesus_n christ_n himself_o the_o prince_n of_o all_o the_o angel_n of_o all_o the_o cherubim_n and_o seraphim_n promise_v to_o admit_v we_o to_o partake_v of_o its_o delicious_a fruit_n by_o these_o bless_a

to_o boast_v of_o jerusalem_n and_o to_o call_v it_o the_o city_n perfect_a in_o beauty_n the_o joy_n of_o the_o whole_a earth_n therefore_o the_o holy_a ghost_n represent_v unto_o we_o the_o glory_n

for_o when_o the_o angel_n who_o have_v in_o his_o hand_n a_o golden_a reed_n to_o measure_v this_o glorious_a city_n have_v say_v unto_o he_o come_v i_o will_v show_v thou_o the_o spouse_n the_o

twelve_o pearl_n at_o each_o of_o they_o stand_v a_o angel_n of_o god_n this_o holy_a city_n have_v no_o need_n of_o the_o light_n of_o the_o sun_n or_o of_o the_o light_n of_o the_o moon_n for_o the_o light_n of_o god_n enlighten_v it_o and_o the_o lamb_n be_v the_o light_n thereof_o there_o be_v no_o temple_n therein_o for_o the_o lord_n god_n almighty_a and_o the_o lamb_n be_v the_o temple_n of_o it_o it_o be_v our_o delight_n to_o abide_v in_o stately_a and_o magnificent_a house_n and_o in_o rich_a and_o glorious_a palace_n therefore_o paradise_n be_v express_v unto_o we_o by_o

therefore_o the_o holy_a ghost_n represent_v the_o happiness_n of_o heaven_n under_o the_o notion_n of_o riches_n and_o treasure_n our_o saviour_n himself_o speak_v of_o it_o in_o this_o manner_n in_o
