A35114	A discourse of the terrestrial paradise aiming at a more probable discovery of the true situation of that happy place of our first parents habitation / by Marmaduke Carver ...	Carver, Marmaduke.	1666 (1666)	Wing C718; ESTC R22054	77,097	198

overture_n of_o that_o discovery_n but_o pitch_v the_o place_n a_o little_a more_o to_o the_o north_n in_o the_o same_o region_n do_v with_o so_o much_o accurateness_n clear_v this_o question_n that_o the_o whole_a church_n of_o god_n be_v much_o behold_v to_o he_o for_o this_o and_o not_o a_o little_a for_o other_o his_o annotation_n relate_v to_o sacred_a geography_n wherein_o i_o know_v none_o

in_o pitch_v upon_o the_o right_a place_n as_o he_o be_v elaborate_a in_o his_o description_n of_o paradise_n there_o will_v have_v need_v no_o more_o to_o have_v be_v say_v upon_o this_o argument_n for_o satisfy_v that_o imbred_a desire_n we_o all_o be_v affect_v with_o to_o know_v the_o place_n of_o our_o first_o parent_n habitation_n or_o to_o stop_v the_o mouth_n of_o the_o enemy_n and_o blasphemer_n in_o my_o young_a year_n and_o first_o tyrociny_n in_o divinity_n while_o i_o be_v yet_o more_o patient_a of_o study_n my_o body_n not_o be_v then_o break_v with_o so_o many_o and_o

though_o it_o be_v not_o of_o so_o high_a a_o nature_n but_o that_o many_o a_o good_a christian_a hold_v the_o mystery_n of_o faith_n in_o a_o pure_a conscience_n may_v be_v ignorant_a of_o it_o without_o hazard_n of_o his_o salvation_n yet_o i_o always_o conceive_v that_o when_o we_o speak_v of_o theology_n as_o a_o science_n which_o be_v the_o profession_n of_o the_o divine_a whatsoever_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v reveal_v in_o the_o sacred_a code_n though_o of_o remote_a concernment_n belong_v ex_fw-la officio_fw-la to_o our_o cognisance_n and_o study_n the_o opinion_n of_o junius_n

all_o opposition_n until_o upon_o a_o strict_a examination_n some_o doubt_n do_v arise_v and_o afterward_o multiply_v to_o suggest_v a_o fear_n whether_o he_o may_v not_o have_v mistake_v his_o

through_o the_o history_n of_o the_o creation_n before_o a_o honourable_a auditory_a when_o that_o paragraph_n of_o paradise_n come_v in_o its_o course_n to_o be_v speak_v to_o give_v a_o
