and_o overcome_v thereby_o he_o must_v of_o necessity_n loose_v that_o former_a joy_n and_o peace_n of_o the_o divine_a light_n or_o love_n of_o god_n in_o he_o 5_o and_o in_o the_o room_n thereof_o both_o see_v and_o feel_v nothing_o but_o spiritual_a darkness_n with_o a_o secret_a fear_n of_o eternal_a death_n 6_o until_o the_o light_n of_o life_n appear_v again_o with_o a_o new_a assurance_n of_o a_o glorious_a deliverance_n from_o that_o sinful_a darkness_n and_o fearful_a death_n as_o aforesaid_a 7_o true_o what_o ever_o man_n shall_v imagine_v to_o the_o contrary_a as_o sure_a as_o there_o be_v a_o god_n this_o be_v the_o condition_n both_o of_o eve_n and_o adam_n also_o when_o they_o be_v defile_v with_o unlawful_a lust_n one_o towards_o another_o by_o subtle_a temptation_n of_o that_o serpent_n council_n call_v the_o tree_n of_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_n 8_o again_o though_o it_o be_v say_v it_o be_v a_o tree_n to_o be_v desire_v to_o make_v one_o wise_a yet_o you_o may_v know_v that_o the_o soul_n of_o eve_n be_v not_o of_o a_o desire_a nature_n after_o wisdom_n in_o her_o creation_n because_o she_o be_v all_o divine_a satisfaction_n in_o herself_o 9_o therefore_o that_o desire_n of_o taste_v of_o the_o fruit_n of_o a_o tree_n to_o make_v her_o wise_a as_o god_n to_o know_v both_o good_a and_o evil_n proceed_v only_o from_o the_o rational_a nature_n of_o the_o unsatisfy_a spirit_n of_o the_o angelical_a serpent_n 10_o for_o this_o i_o will_v have_v you_o to_o understand_v at_o that_o time_n eve_n be_v tempt_v to_o evil_a by_o the_o serpent_n she_o be_v whole_o leave_v to_o her_o own_o strength_n 11_o and_o it_o be_v the_o seem_a glory_n of_o his_o angelical_a language_n that_o overtop_v her_o present_a light_n and_o beget_v that_o desire_n in_o her_o understanding_n through_o which_o her_o soul_n be_v move_v with_o a_o powerful_a desire_n to_o make_v trial_n of_o his_o serpentine_a council_n and_o to_o taste_v of_o his_o spiritual_a meat_n so_o high_o exalt_v by_o he_o 12_o because_o to_o she_o receive_v new_a thought_n she_o have_v not_o hear_v so_o glorious_a a_o language_n before_o 13_o again_o the_o tree_n be_v pleasant_a for_o sight_n true_o before_o that_o glitter_a serpent_n appear_v eve_n want_v no_o satisfaction_n in_o behold_v the_o man_n adam_n 14_o but_o she_o look_v a_o little_a too_o long_o upon_o the_o comeliness_n of_o his_o form_n through_o his_o infuse_a witchcraft_n her_o soul_n be_v ravish_v with_o the_o sight_n of_o his_o angelical_a person_n 15_o again_o it_o be_v a_o tree_n who_o fruit_n be_v to_o be_v desire_v to_o make_v one_o wise_a as_o god_n to_o know_v both_o good_a and_o evil_n my_o belove_a spiritual_a brethren_n the_o pretend_a meaning_n of_o the_o serpent_n in_o those_o word_n be_v this_o if_o she_o do_v but_o taste_v of_o the_o fruit_n of_o that_o tree_n it_o be_v so_o full_a of_o divine_a virtue_n that_o she_o shall_v not_o only_o be_v like_a unto_o god_n but_o she_o shall_v be_v as_o god_n to_o herself_o 16_o also_o to_o know_v all_o that_o be_v to_o be_v know_v whether_o good_a or_o evil_n within_o she_o own_o soul_n but_o the_o truth_n be_v his_o secret_a intent_n be_v this_o that_o when_o she_o have_v taste_v of_o that_o forbid_a fruit_n she_o shall_v with_o he_o both_o know_v and_o feel_v in_o she_o own_o spirit_n the_o difference_n between_o light_n and_o darkness_n life_n and_o death_n love_n and_o envy_n peace_n and_o war_n good_a and_o evil_n or_o god_n and_o devil_n 17_o since_o eve_n the_o natural_a mother_n of_o all_o mankind_n be_v overcome_v by_o lust_n through_o the_o sultilty_n of_o the_o serpent_n have_v not_o many_o a_o poor_a innocent_a virgin_n or_o virgin-wife_n be_v deceive_v in_o like_a manner_n through_o the_o comeliness_n of_o man_n person_n and_o their_o serpentine_a language_n by_o persuade_v they_o that_o they_o love_v they_o above_o their_o own_o life_n and_o of_o give_v they_o such_o content_n they_o know_v not_o of_o or_o if_o they_o deny_v they_o it_o will_v be_v their_o death_n 18_o moreover_o by_o tell_v they_o all_o man_n be_v but_o one_o man_n and_o all_o woman_n be_v but_o

have_v not_o these_o and_o such_o like_a curse_a counsel_n occasion_v many_o a_o innocent_a soul_n to_o betray_v their_o virginity_n or_o virgin_n bed_n unto_o their_o perpetual_a sorrow_n and_o

to_o make_v one_o wise_a take_v of_o the_o fruit_n thereof_o and_o do_v eat_v that_o be_v when_o the_o innocent_a soul_n of_o eve_n be_v overpowr_v with_o the_o serpent_n subtle_a language_n as_o before_o say_v her_o spirit_n do_v consent_n unto_o he_o to_o come_v in_o unto_o she_o and_o take_v full_a possession_n of_o she_o to_o be_v her_o god_n and_o guide_n instead_o of_o her_o creator_n 22_o true_o in_o this_o case_n the_o virgin_n eve_n condition_n may_v fit_o be_v compare_v unto_o the_o virgin_n mary_n 23_o you_o know_v after_o the_o angel_n have_v tell_v she_o that_o without_o

it_o from_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n itself_o i_o shall_v declare_v the_o very_a sense_n of_o this_o secret_a in_o plainess_n of_o speech_n which_o be_v this_o 26_o as_o soon_o as_o ever_o eve_n soul_n through_o the_o permissive_a power_n of_o god_n be_v overcome_v to_o consent_v to_o the_o serpent_n curse_a counsel_n his_o angelical_a person_n enter_v into_o her_o womb_n through_o her_o
