man_n shall_v enter_v by_o it_o because_o the_o lord_n god_n of_o israel_n have_v enter_v by_o it_o 2_o here-throgh_a signify_v that_o although_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o christian_a which_o be_v the_o

part_n of_o it_o continual_o shut_v against_o all_o man_n yea_o against_o all_o the_o world_n and_o open_v only_o to_o one_o thing_n i_o mean_v to_o god_n who_o have_v already_o enter_v into_o it_o and_o enlighten_v it_o with_o his_o spirit_n that_o as_o at_o the_o window_n of_o noah_n ark_n there_o enter_v in_o no_o mist_n no_o water_n nothing_o else_o but_o one_o thing_n only_o which_o be_v light_a intromittiv_o so_o at_o this_o east_n gate_n no_o mist_n of_o human_a error_n no_o water_n of_o worldly_a care_n may_v enter_v in_o but_o only_o the_o light_n of_o heaven_n and_o a_o sanctify_a desire_n to_o be_v fast_o knit_v and_o perfect_o unite_v by_o faith_n and_o love_n to_o god_n hence_o it_o be_v that_o moses_n come_v to_o talk_v with_o god_n upon_o the_o mountain_n be_v command_v to_o bring_v no_o man_n with_o he_o but_o to_o come_v up_o himself_o alone_o 18._o nay_o moreover_o be_v upon_o the_o mountain_n alone_o he_o be_v cover_v and_o compass_v about_o with_o a_o

god_n and_o therefore_o the_o psalmist_n say_v o_o make_v my_o heart_n like_o moses_n heart_n when_o he_o be_v upon_o the_o mountain_n o_o make_v my_o heart_n like_o the_o window_n of_o noah_n ark_n

therefore_o we_o which_o be_v the_o saint_n of_o god_n must_v not_o be_v like_o the_o idol_n of_o the_o heathen_a which_o have_v nose_n and_o smell_v not_o but_o we_o must_v have_v nose_n like_o the_o

because_o he_o which_o drink_v upon_o his_o knee_n like_o a_o ox_n can_v possible_o go_v forward_o while_o he_o drink_v but_o he_o which_o with_o some_o of_o the_o polonian_n 110._o or_o with_o that_o

and_o like_v as_o a_o lusty_a hound_n of_o a_o good_a kind_n order_v his_o go_v so_o well_o 31_o that_o though_o he_o have_v run_v over_o very_o many_o field_n and_o through_o a_o thousand_o thicket_n already_o yet_o he_o never_o remember_v any_o labour_n which_o be_v behind_o but_o forget_v it_o and_o if_o he_o chance_v to_o lap_v water_n in_o some_o brook_n by_o the_o way_n bibet_fw-la yet_o even_o while_o he_o lap_v he_o lift_v up_o his_o head_n and_o still_o go_v on_o and_o pli_v he_o forward_o to_o his_o gain_n so_o must_v we_o do_v in_o this_o pursuit_n of_o perfection_n see_v

upon_o this_o fresh_a &_o live_a way_n with_o a_o fresh_a and_o lively_a faith_n &_o though_o we_o have_v go_v very_o far_o &_o do_v a_o thousand_o good_n deed_n already_o yet_o we_o must_v always_o
