Gold imbodies in an entire weight so am I in Unity with you And as the Rivers of Canaan are four everlasting Witnesses of conjunction the one of Milk the other of Honey another of Wine and the other of Oyl imbodying in one Pond and from thence running forth in one entire and irresistable current which no man can stop to extract the sweetness thereof Such even such is the individual relation of my contract and betrothing with you Yea and as a bushel of Salt which is cast into the Sea and dissolved in her womb in the Western part and a Voice saith unto the Son of Man in the East Arise and go to the West and by just separation gather me the distinct drops of them corns of Salt which are dissolv'd in the utmost quarter of the Western Oceans And he answereth him saying It is a thing altogether impossible for me to do Such is my entrance in the bowels of your body as a drop of Savour and a dram of Sweetness within you in the Union as blood to blood in your veins and marrow to marrow in your bones Yea greater than this is my Covenant with you with you with you O ye Seed of the Lord of lords O ye Daughters of the King of kings Sons of the most high God of gods wherein I can never be separated from you For as the government of the night is given in contract to the the Moon and as light is joyned to the Morning-Star yea and as the brightness of the day is imbodied in the Sun so even so are your ravishing breasts my bed where I frequently rest without travels and repose without sense of sorrows And after all this though I dwell in the Banqueting-house where the Dainties are spread before me and am sealed with the signet of Love and have swallowed up the streams of the Fountain of Charity and Affection like forcible flouds nevertheless I find an insufficiency in my self to tell you the greatest things of the indissolvable Bonds of mine everlasting Relation unto you which verily is exceeding good both for you and for me that we all as one may alwayes and evermore know our God alone to be the wisest of all Counselors and Instructors speaking to us and teaching us his Oracles in the secrets when the external Voice neither foundeth nor reacheth unto us And Oh! Oh thou Jerusalem the holy City of the Lord thy God This is the Word of thy Creator unto thee who hath raised thee of a little stone unto the proportion of the most immovable Mountain in the Globe of the whole Earth and made thy Walls an everlasting safety and thy Gates the entrance of joyfulness I the Lord the Most Mighty will yet make the Coverings of thy Habitations as a Glory of the greatest Dignity and Crowns of the highest Royalty for they shall be a resplendency of a transcending Light reaching into the Chambers of the seventh Heavens and the glitterings of the very Pavements of thy Streets shall be as torches like flaming Hills giving a thorow light unto the profoundest deeps of the Oceans For loe there shall be no more Earth between thee the Chrystal Seas nor yet an Element between thee and the upper Heavens Moreover the day cometh unto the fruits of thy blessed Womb that among them the walls of thy reach shall be no more counted nor called a confine for they shall infinitely run over the utmost limitation of the space of place and it shall be unto them which walk in thy streets that they shall but look thereon and though running as in a race yet shall read perceive and understand the wonders of thy Creator which are hid in the deeps and through the brightness of them which have an everlasting scituation over all waters they shall see the playes of the Fishes and the rejoycings of their scooles in a smooth Sea without storms For the Winds of the Winter shall cease for ever and a tranquility of the entire Body of all the Constellations shal cover her face without end and the dwellers of thy habitations shall call the name of thy streets The Prospective-Glass of the Counsels of the Omnipotent Majesty which shews a perfection of fulness without the resemblance or form of figures Ah! thou Beauty of Beauties on whose face the most illustrious Splendor of Splendors is spread the very twinkling of thine eye as the glimpse of a countenance cast over me catches away my soul as in the talants of Rapture bearing me in a fiery Cloud O God let therefore the Ravishments wherewith She hath ravished me become Raptures of Rentings of the souls of her Seed in the superabundant solace of my spirit and if my pleasures be not of a sufficiency equivolent to their statures then let my body be broken as bread and my bowels powred out as brooks and let me walk hungry for the better things and return as an empty pitcher to the Fountain of Waters that yet in a little I may be a help to the least which are the dearling Children of her Womb. Now Oh ye Babes of the early Day this I have to say unto you in the life and springing of the Light from on High in which through the blessed Birth under the tediousness of the travel thereof you have obtained a nearer and dearer Calling of Childship than that of an Adoption unto Heirship Think ye my dear and tender Sisters and Brethren and gather the Ponders in your selves of the sweetest Banquets and choicest Wine of the most mellodious Musick delightsomest Pleasures and greatest Joyes yea wind your selves by Instruments and line unto the deepest bottoms and ascend by the highest ladder of your choicest Contemplations in the utmost strength of every sense of Joyes And when you have said to your selves thou canst not descend a degree lower nor ascend a step higher then read in your selves the answer of your Beloved which testifieth to the face of faithfulness of every holy Life As the first Heavens is above the lowest earth and the third Heavens above the firmament of the first even so shall the sense be exceeding every sense of that which now is and all shall be enjoyed in the perfect joy of the possession of Perpetuity for ever And therefore run my Darlings in the Race of Righteousness so as to reach the Mark with the Recompence and comfort your selves and one another with these sayings Come ye least of Babes and leap up into the tenderness of my bosome that I may bear you up into the Mountain of Zion which is waxed exceeding mighty in the midst of your Mother where you may turn on the top thereof and behold the Rayes of her glory compassing you Ah roul your eye at the Motion of my finger which pointeth at the emphasis of a Remnant of her Ornaments and Features that you may be refreshed with a gracious gladness in her Glory For her hair is the Rain of the Clouds which watereth the Plants in Spring
