long_o and_o unwieldie_a let_v we_o therefore_o take_v it_o in_o piece_n and_o consider_v the_o enjoyment_n of_o god_n in_o four_o period_n of_o duration_n time_n i_o can_v call_v they_o because_o the_o last_o of_o they_o be_v eternity_n 1._o in_o this_o life_n but_o do_v not_o mistake_v i_o as_o though_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o god_n here_o be_v more_o worth_a then_o that_o which_o be_v speak_v to_o in_o the_o first_o query_n viz._n better_o than_o what_o there_o be_v in_o heaven_n unless_o you_o take_v it_o precise_o and_o abstract_o as_o if_o you_o conceive_v heaven_n to_o be_v enjoy_v without_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o god_n and_o then_o that_o poor_a pittance_n of_o enjoyment_n of_o god_n which_o we_o may_v have_v here_o be_v more_o worth_a than_o heaven_n will_v be_v to_o eternity_n heaven_n will_v be_v a_o burden_n to_o we_o be_v it_o not_o for_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o god_n there_o and_o therefore_o john_n 17.21_o christ_n pray_v that_o they_o all_o may_v be_v one_o as_o thou_o father_n be_v in_o i_o and_o i_o in_o thou_o that_o they_o also_o may_v be_v one_o in_o we_o there_o be_v not_o equality_n but_o there_o be_v similitude_n there_o be_v reality_n dignity_n

the_o duty_n of_o prayer_n as_o the_o spirit_n assist_v we_o it_o be_v the_o grace_n of_o prayer_n now_o there_o be_v a_o common_a presence_n of_o god_n in_o ordinance_n which_o be_v as_o the_o
