many_o marvell_n in_o this_o second_o birth_n as_o well_o as_o in_o the_o first_o i_o will_v explicate_v the_o marvell_n of_o these_o his_o birth_n and_o of_o his_o conception_n by_o a_o comparison_n so_o proper_a and_o so_o natural_a so_o clear_a and_o so_o intelligible_a that_o the_o most_o indocible_a may_v come_v by_o it_o to_o a_o competent_a knowledge_n of_o these_o mystery_n 3._o among_o all_o the_o creature_n pure_o corporal_a there_o be_v not_o one_o that_o express_v god_n so_o natural_o as_o the_o sun_n you_o see_v the_o sun_n produce_v a_o ray_n which_o be_v its_o offspring_n there_o be_v nothing_o more_o visible_a than_o the_o sun_n produce_v its_o ray_n nothing_o also_o be_v more_o clear_a bright_a and_o visible_a than_o the_o ray_n and_o nevertheless_o there_o be_v nothing_o that_o we_o have_v so_o much_o difficulty_n to_o eye_n we_o can_v fix_v our_o eye_n upon_o it_o not_o through_o want_n of_o light_n but_o through_o excessive_a clearness_n and_o through_o the_o weakness_n of_o our_o sight_n so_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v beget_v by_o his_o father_n in_o the_o light_n of_o his_o divinity_n by_o the_o way_n of_o understanding_n and_o of_o knowledge_n there_o be_v nothing_o then_o more_o intelligible_a than_o this_o generation_n and_o nevertheless_o there_o be_v nothing_o that_o we_o be_v so_o unable_a to_o understand_v it_o be_v darkness_n to_o we_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o weakness_n of_o our_o understanding_n tho'_o the_o ray_n be_v the_o offspring_n of_o the_o sun_n it_o be_v nevertheless_o as_o ancient_a as_o the_o sun_n and_o if_o the_o sun_n have_v be_v from_o all_o eternity_n its_o ray_n will_v have_v also_o be_v eternal_a so_o though_o jesus_n christ_n according_a to_o his_o divinity_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n thc_a father_n he_o be_v nevertheless_o as_o ancient_a as_o his_o father_n he_o be_v from_o all_o eternity_n even_o as_o his_o father_n the_o sun_n by_o its_o ray_n warm_v the_o air_n make_v the_o earth_n fruitful_a and_o produce_v gold_n and_o silver_n metal_n and_o mineral_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o it_o so_o the_o eternal_a father_n by_o his_o son_n create_v heaven_n and_o earth_n man_n ●_o john_n ●_o and_o

great_a perfection_n to_o beget_v a_o son_n who_o be_v god_n as_o he_o and_o the_o same_o god_n with_o he_o the_o ray_n come_v forth_o of_o the_o sun_n and_o be_v send_v down_o to_o we_o but_o it_o come_v forth_o of_o it_o without_o come_v from_o it_o you_o see_v it_o in_o the_o sun_n tho'_o it_o be_v upon_o the_o earth_n so_o when_o faith_n teach_v we_o that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n descend_v from_o heaven_n and_o come_v into_o this_o world_n this_o be_v not_o to_o say_v he_o leave_v the_o bosom_n of_o his_o father_n he_o always_o remain_v there_o tho'_o he_o appear_v here_o the_o

open_v it_o it_o go_v out_o of_o it_o without_o break_v it_o so_o the_o son_n of_o god_n come_v into_o this_o world_n and_o pass_v through_o the_o bless_a womb_n of_o the_o virgin_n how_o be_v he_o

what_o be_v chrsit_n this_o be_v a_o mystery_n well_o know_v to_o many_o but_o which_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v unknown_a to_o any_o because_o it_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o christianity_n and_o
