of_o scripture_n that_o the_o angel_n in_o heaven_n understand_v our_o prayer_n consider_v they_o be_v the_o reporter_n of_o they_o to_o the_o divine_a majesty_n now_o this_o be_v also_o another_o express_a text_n of_o scripture_n that_o the_o saint_n in_o heaven_n shall_v be_v like_a to_o the_o angel_n according_a to_o the_o say_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n in_o the_o holy_a gospel_n we_o must_v then_o conclude_v that_o the_o saint_n hear_v our_o prayer_n see_v the_o angel_n unto_o who_o they_o be_v liken_v hear_v they_o i_o think_v i_o hear_v already_o my_o master_n the_o minister_n to_o answer_v and_o say_v that_o this_o similitude_n of_o the_o angel_n and_o saint_n of_o which_o our_o lord_n speak_v in_o the_o gospel_n consist_v but_o only_o in_o their_o felicity_n and_o blessedness_n and_o not_o in_o their_o nature_n or_o office_n that_o be_v our_o lord_n will_v say_v that_o the_o angel_n and_o the_o saint_n shall_v be_v equal_a and_o like_a to_o each_o other_o in_o heaven_n because_o both_o of_o they_o shall_v be_v bless_v enjoy_v one_o selfesame_a glory_n and_o felicity_n but_o let_v we_o suppose_v that_o the_o case_n be_v so_o let_v we_o grant_v and_o admit_v that_o the_o answer_n of_o these_o my_o master_n be_v true_a yet_o notwithstanding_o even_o by_o the_o same_o we_o can_v ensnare_v and_o entrap_v they_o for_o see_v the_o estate_n and_o happiness_n of_o future_a life_n hinder_v not_o the_o angel_n from_o hear_v the_o prayer_n of_o mortal_a man_n wherefore_o or_o how_o can_v it_o be_v but_o the_o saint_n be_v in_o the_o selfsame_o felicity_n as_o the_o angel_n be_v may_v not_o also_o hear_v our_o prayer_n as_o well_o as_o they_o this_o text_n then_o of_o scripture_n show_v that_o the_o saint_n hear_v our_o prayer_n they_o hear_v we_o they_o see_v we_o neither_o be_v ignorant_a of_o that_o which_o be_v do_v upon_o the_o earth_n which_o once_o more_o i_o will_v show_v you_o out_o of_o the_o scripture_n for_o the_o holy_a patriarch_n abraham_n be_v dead_a and_o in_o limbo_n know_v many_o thing_n which_o be_v do_v among_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o sixteen_o chapter_n of_o s._n luke_n first_o he_o

death_n of_o abraham_n second_o he_o know_v the_o life_n that_o the_o rich_a glutton_n have_v lead_v upon_o the_o earth_n and_o the_o misery_n which_o poor_a lazarus_n have_v there_o endure_v three_o he_o see_v and_o know_v the_o estate_n and_o condition_n of_o that_o unhappy_a wretch_n and_o hear_v his_o prayer_n though_o he_o be_v not_o hear_v when_o he_o cry_v father_n abraham_n have_v mercy_n on_o i_o and_o send_v lazarus_n etc._n etc._n and_o yet_o nevertheless_o there_o be_v a_o great_a distance_n between_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o as_o abraham_n plain_o tell_v he_o final_o the_o rich_a glutton_n though_o he_o be_v damn_v see_v he_o not_o abraham_n hear_v he_o not_o his_o answer_n give_v he_o not_o his_o reply_n for_o all_o there_o be_v the_o distance_n of_o a_o great_a gulf_n between_o they_o now_o i_o hope_v there_o be_v no_o man_n that_o dare_v deny_v all_o this_o for_o it_o be_v write_v in_o the_o holy_a gospel_n and_o be_v a_o history_n pronounce_v by_o the_o mouth_n of_o he_o which_o can_v lie_v but_o be_v the_o truth_n himself_o even_o jesus_n christ._n if_o this_o thing_n and_o story_n be_v true_a as_o it_o be_v i_o then_o charge_v all_o the_o caluinian_a and_o lutherian_a minister_n and_o say_v unto_o they_o in_o this_o manner_n if_o abraham_n my_o master_n shut_v up_o in_o limbo_n not_o enjoy_v at_o that_o time_n the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o be_v not_o yet_o bless_v but_o through_o hope_n notwithstanding_o know_v the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n great_a know_v the_o state_n and_o misery_n of_o that_o rich_a glutton_n and_o hear_v he_o make_v his_o prayer_n and_o request_n will_v you_o think_v then_o that_o the_o saint_n in_o paradise_n behold_v god_n and_o enjoy_v his_o most_o bright_a sight_n be_v less_o privilege_v than_o abraham_n therefore_o the_o father_n s_o austin_n say_v excellent_a well_o quid_fw-la non_fw-la vident_fw-la qui_fw-la videntem_fw-la omne_fw-la vident_fw-la that_o be_v what_o be_v it_o say_v he_o that_o the_o

in_o the_o world_n be_v afraid_a lest_o they_o shall_v come_v into_o the_o same_o place_n of_o torment_n wherein_o he_o be_v as_o you_o may_v see_v what_o he_o speak_v unto_o abraham_n in_o the_o

if_o the_o saint_n and_o all_o the_o bless_a one_o that_o be_v depart_v this_o life_n know_v the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n what_o ought_v they_o to_o hear_v or_o know_v more_o than_o the_o
