and_o i_o say_v the_o truth_n as_o to_o the_o outward_a man._n 2._o but_o see_v we_o can_v live_v both_o in_o god_n and_o in_o this_o world_n together_o and_o see_v the_o soul_n if_o it_o will_v

will_v set_v it_o down_o for_o a_o memorial_n since_o we_o be_v yet_o in_o this_o world_n for_o god_n be_v wonderful_a who_o determine_v who_o or_o determine_v judge_v in_o a_o thing_n and_o yet_o

that_o god_n will_v be_v manifest_v in_o all_o the_o three_o principle_n be_v the_o creation_n and_o that_o the_o dominion_n of_o the_o image_n do_v not_o continue_v in_o its_o ordinarce_o its_o or_o

the_o order_n or_o law_n ordinance_n of_o the_o eternity_n and_o therefore_o there_o happen_v a_o break_v for_o the_o outward_a in_o the_o middle_a have_v a_o beginning_n and_o a_o number_n and_o therefore_o it_o go_v to_o the_o end_n and_o must_v break_v itself_o off_o from_o the_o middle_a again_o and_o this_o the_o long_a desire_n have_v do_v it_o have_v set_v the_o middle_a wherein_o

for_o the_o outward_a have_v a_o beginning_n and_o the_o inward_a not_o and_o therefore_o the_o outward_a must_v break_v off_o 11._o the_o outward_a consist_v only_o in_o the_o sun_n tincture_n and_o

planet_n have_v not_o the_o tincture_n of_o life_n saturn_n mars_n and_o jupiter_n have_v the_o great_a life_n saturn_n seperate_v whatsoever_o he_o get_v in_o his_o limit_v he_o do_v it_o not_o

be_v able_a to_o know_v the_o centre_n which_o be_v the_o birth_n of_o our_o life_n we_o have_v power_n to_o demonstrate_v it_o and_o show_v what_o be_v comprise_v and_o understand_v in_o the_o

20._o for_o the_o two_o form_n viz._n sharp_a cold_a and_o bitter_a sting_a which_o be_v generate_v by_o the_o longing_n in_o the_o eternal_a will_n they_o hold_v the_o centre_n and_o make_v the_o

but_o the_o will_n be_v not_o so_o for_o it_o be_v free_a in_o itself_o but_o the_o two_o form_n take_v it_o into_o their_o property_n for_o it_o be_v their_o father_n and_o it_o sharpen_v itself_o
