holy_a spirit_n alone_o to_o the_o heart_n and_o soul_n of_o the_o faithful_a i_o inquire_v if_o in_o this_o case_n the_o inward_a presentation_n of_o the_o object_n be_v not_o to_o be_v call_v a_o immediate_a revelation_n the_o which_o if_o he_o grant_v therefore_o i_o say_v it_o be_v now_o immediate_a when_o the_o outward_a object_n be_v adjoin_v to_o it_o for_o that_o inward_a illumination_n and_o revelation_n do_v not_o change_v its_o nature_n in_o the_o absence_n and_o presence_n of_o the_o outward_a object_n have_v all_o entire_o in_o itself_o that_o belong_v to_o a_o immediate_a revelation_n but_o remain_v the_o same_o whether_o it_o be_v join_v to_o the_o outward_a or_o separate_v therefrom_o even_o as_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n whether_o join_v to_o the_o body_n or_o separate_v therefrom_o yet_o it_o still_o retain_v its_o own_o nature_n that_o it_o be_v the_o immediate_a principle_n of_o its_o operation_n both_o in_o the_o body_n and_o out_o of_o the_o body_n and_o indeed_o by_o a_o certain_a analogy_n as_o the_o soul_n be_v to_o the_o body_n so_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n inward_o operate_n and_o illuminate_v to_o the_o outward_a testimony_n of_o the_o letter_n and_o because_o the_o soul_n do_v many_o thing_n by_o the_o mean_n of_o the_o body_n yet_o that_o do_v not_o hinder_v but_o that_o it_o be_v the_o immediate_a principle_n of_o its_o operation_n but_o the_o soul_n do_v many_o thing_n in_o respect_n of_o its_o most_o inward_a and_o intellectual_a operation_n without_o the_o mean_n and_o help_n of_o the_o body_n even_o when_o it_o be_v in_o the_o body_n and_o therefore_o why_o may_v not_o that_o divine_a spirit_n as_o it_o do_v many_o thing_n in_o the_o saint_n by_o mean_n of_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o scripture_n do_v or_o work_v some_o other_o thing_n and_o not_o use_v the_o mean_n of_o the_o letter_n yea_o how_o many_o thing_n do_v the_o holy_a spirit_n reveal_v and_o open_v in_o man_n as_o belong_v to_o the_o special_a and_o particular_a act_n of_o virtue_n and_o vice_n that_o do_v far_o transcend_v and_o go_v beyond_o the_o straitness_n and_o narrow_a compass_n of_o word_n of_o which_o seneca_n the_o

the_o which_o particular_n be_v yet_o very_o necessary_a to_o be_v know_v unto_o the_o saint_n and_o therefore_o the_o holy_a spirit_n reveal_v unto_o they_o those_o particular_a thing_n which_o be_v
