word_n like_v to_o pure_a glass_n that_o be_v transparent_a and_o of_o a_o white_a colour_n like_v unto_o crystal_n from_o this_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o whole_a city_n whether_o you_o respect_v the_o gate_n the_o wall_n or_o the_o street_n be_v most_o precious_a which_o have_v not_o within_o it_o any_o ordure_n or_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v base_a abject_a sordid_a or_o of_o small_a

passage_n an●_n the_o gate_n thereof_o shall_v not_o be_v shut_v because_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o darkness_n no_o thief_n no_o enemy_n for_o fear_n of_o who_o the_o gate_n shall_v be_v shut_v neither_o be_v this_o repugnant_a to_o the_o word_n of_o the_o psalmist_n who_o celebrate_v the_o praise_n of_o his_o heavenly_a jerusalem_n in_o these_o word_n psal_n 147._o o_o jerusalem_n praise_v

there_o be_v not_o any_o enemy_n or_o thief_n who_o can_v threaten_v danger_n to_o this_o heavenly_a jerusalem_n for_o the_o prophet_n by_o the_o gate_n be_v ever_o shut_v sign_n fy_v that_o god_n
