one_o pearl_n and_o the_o street_n of_o the_o city_n be_v pure_a gold_n as_o shine_a glass_n as_o we_o have_v hear_v of_o the_o form_n of_o this_o goodly_a city_n so_o now_o we_o be_v to_o hear_v of_o the_o matter_n of_o it_o that_o be_v to_o say_v of_o what_o stuff_n it_o be_v make_v first_o s._n john_n tell_v we_o that_o the_o whole_a city_n be_v of_o most_o pure_a and_o glitter_a gold_n like_a unto_o glass_n and_o that_o the_o wall_n be_v of_o jasper_n most_o green_a and_o flourish_a and_o also_o that_o the_o very_a foundation_n of_o the_o wall_n be_v beautify_v and_o adorn_v with_o twelve_o sundry_a kind_n of_o precious_a stone_n which_o he_o reckon_v up_o we_o count_v it_o a_o great_a matter_n here_o below_o to_o compass_v and_o close_v in_o our_o house_n with_o a_o wall_n of_o brick_n and_o none_o can_v do_v it_o but_o man_n of_o place_n but_o alas_o what_o be_v that_o to_o his_o wall_n what_o be_v brick_n to_o precious_a stone_n &_o pebble_n to_o pearl_n but_o s._n john_n add_v that_o the_o gate_n be_v of_o pearl_n and_o the_o street_n of_o the_o city_n of_o pure_a gold_n oh_o how_o brave_a how_o beautiful_a how_o glorious_a how_o glitter_a how_o gorgeous_a how_o admirable_a a_o city_n be_v this_o for_o if_o the_o gate_n be_v of_o pearl_n &_o the_o street_n of_o gold_n then_o what_o be_v the_o inner_a room_n what_o be_v the_o dine_a chamber_n and_o what_o be_v the_o lodging_n room_n but_o here_o we_o may_v not_o gross_o imagine_v that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v of_o such_o mettle_n and_o matter_n indeed_o as_o be_v here_o describe_v but_o the_o holy_a ghost_n will_v give_v we_o some_o taste_n of_o it_o and_o after_o a_o sort_n shadow_n out_o unto_o we_o under_o these_o thing_n which_o be_v in_o most_o precious_a account_n among_o man_n what_o the_o glory_n and_o excellency_n of_o the_o immortal_a kingdom_n be_v for_o otherwise_o there_o be_v no_o comparison_n betwixt_o gold_n pearl_n and_o precious_a stone_n and_o those_o heavenly_a invisible_a &_o immortal_a thing_n which_o we_o look_v for_o and_o hope_v for_o through_o christ_n which_o in_o very_a deed_n be_v so_o great_a so_o glorious_a and_o so_o unconceivable_a that_o gold_n pearl_n &_o precious_a stone_n be_v scant_o so_o much_o as_o any_o show_n shadow_n or_o resemblance_n thereof_o ver_fw-la 22_o and_o i_o see_v no_o temple_n therein_o for_o the_o lord_n god_n almighty_a and_o the_o lamb_n be_v the_o temple_n of_o it_o ver_fw-la 23_o and_o this_o city_n have_v no_o need_n of_o the_o sun_n neither_o of_o the_o moon_n to_o shine_v in_o it_o for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n do_v light_v it_o and_o the_o lamb_n be_v the_o light_n of_o it_o ver_fw-la 24_o and_o the_o people_n which_o be_v save_v shall_v walk_v in_o the_o light_n of_o it_o and_o the_o king_n of_o the_o earth_n shall_v bring_v their_o honour_n &_o glory_n unto_o it_o ver_fw-la 25_o and_o the_o gate_n of_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v shut_v by_o day_n for_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o night_n there_o ver_fw-la 26_o and_o the_o glory_n and_o honour_n of_o the_o gentile_n shall_v be_v bring_v unto_o it_o ver_fw-la 27_o and_o there_o shall_v into_o it_o no_o unclean_a thing_n neither_o whatsoever_o work_v abomination_n or_o lie_n but_o they_o which_o be_v write_v in_o the_o lamb_n book_n of_o life_n in_o this_o new_a jerusalem_n there_o be_v no_o temple_n as_o be_v in_o the_o old_a jerusalem_n for_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o need_n of_o any_o no_o need_n of_o doctrine_n of_o sacrament_n of_o prayer_n as_o in_o the_o old_a temple_n wherein_o the_o law_n be_v teach_v sacrament_n administer_v sacrifice_n offer_v and_o many_o other_o rite_n and_o ceremony_n observe_v but_o saint_n john_n say_v that_o now_o god_n and_o christ_n shall_v be_v all_o in_o all_o they_o shall_v be_v the_o temple_n of_o this_o most_o holy_a city_n and_o all_o they_o elect_v shall_v full_o know_v they_o and_o dwell_v with_o they_o for_o ever_o and_o as_o this_o city_n have_v no_o

for_o ever_o who_o incomprehensible_a brightness_n do_v as_o far_o excel_v the_o brightness_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o moon_n as_o they_o do_v excel_v a_o little_a candle_n at_o noon_n day_n but_o it_o may_v be_v demand_v who_o shall_v dwell_v in_o this_o so_o glorious_a a_o city_n and_o in_o this_o so_o great_a a_o light_n saint_n john_n answer_v that_o the_o people_n that_o be_v save_v shall_v walk_v in_o it_o that_o be_v all_o the_o israel_n of_o god_n all_o true_a believer_n which_o be_v happy_a that_o ever_o they_o be_v bear_v that_o they_o may_v come_v to_o the_o possession_n of_o such_o a_o kingdom_n as_o be_v here_o describe_v for_o saint_n john_n say_v that_o the_o resplendent_a brightness_n of_o this_o city_n be_v so_o great_a that_o even_o the_o king_n of_o the_o earth_n shall_v bring_v their_o glory_n and_o honour_n unto_o it_o and_o also_o that_o the_o glory_n and_o honour_n of_o the_o gentile_n shall_v be_v bring_v unto_o it_o oh_o how_o unspeakable_a be_v the_o glory_n of_o this_o city_n that_o king_n shall_v throw_v down_o their_o crown_n and_o sceptre_n before_o it_o count_v all_o their_o pomp_n and_o glory_n but_o as_o dust_n in_o respect_n of_o it_o and_o the_o magnificence_n and_o pomp_n of_o all_o the_o potentate_n of_o the_o earth_n shall_v here_o be_v lay_v down_o and_o albeit_o none_o of_o the_o king_n and_o noble_n of_o the_o gentile_n may_v be_v admit_v into_o the_o old_a jerusalem_n yet_o all_o of_o the_o gentile_n that_o believe_v shall_v be_v admit_v into_o this_o new_a jerusalem_n &_o make_v free_a denizen_n thereof_o for_o
