commune_v with_o i_o about_o this_o heavenly_a city_n i_o see_v it_o descend_v and_o cover_v the_o whole_a earth_n and_o all_o those_o who_o be_v not_o prepare_v to_o enter_v and_o who_o can_v claim_v no_o birthright_n freedom_n in_o this_o mother-city_n do_v flee_v away_o by_o multitude_n heap_n upon_o heap_n to_o hide_v themselves_o from_o the_o bright_a splendour_n of_o the_o divine_a body_n with_o the_o anoint_a head_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o it_o the_o glory_n be_v so_o great_a that_o we_o can_v only_o give_v a_o eclipse_v account_n of_o what_o be_v see_v but_o as_o the_o descent_n of_o
