but_o a_o admirable_a &_o most_o perfect_a justice_n which_o reign_v in_o that_o city_n in_o which_o there_o be_v no_o injustice_n no_o obliquity_n or_o distortion_n of_o man_n action_n which_o

admiration_n to_o behold_v so_o many_o almost_o innumerable_a citizen_n of_o that_o city_n all_o of_o they_o enjoy_v a_o most_o exact_a freedom_n of_o will_n and_o yet_o not_o any_o one_o for_o all_o eternity_n to_o be_v note_v for_o any_o exorbitancy_n or_o miscariadge_n either_o in_o work_n word_n or_o think_v therefore_o we_o may_v true_o say_v that_o that_o city_n be_v place_v in_o a_o square_a so_o as_o the_o length_n and_o breadth_n thereof_o be_v equal_a furthermore_o this_o four-squared_a form_n may_v also_o figure_v out_o that_o the_o latitude_n of_o the_o heavenly_a felicity_n

and_o interminable_a for_o according_a to_o the_o dialect_n of_o holy_a scripture_n latitude_n be_v accustom_v to_o be_v apply_v to_o the_o multitude_n of_o thing_n and_o longitude_n to_o their_o

of_o our_o lord_n the_o latitude_n shall_v be_v equal_a with_o the_o longitude_n because_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o immensity_n of_o good_a thing_n join_v with_o a_o eternity_n of_o their_o fruition_n s._n john_n add_v a_o little_a after_o the_o place_n above_o allege_a that_o the_o height_n of_o this_o glorious_a city_n shall_v be_v of_o the_o same_o dimension_n with_o its_o breadth_n so_o as_o the_o city_n may_v be_v four_o square_v every_o way_n the_o meaning_n whereof_o be_v that_o the_o good_n of_o the_o celestial_a jerusalem_n shall_v not_o be_v only_o many_o and_o everlasting_a but_o

they_o speak_v of_o city_n which_o stand_v in_o fear_n of_o the_o enemy_n whereas_o the_o holy_a scripture_n celebrate_v in_o word_n that_o city_n who_o border_n and_o limit_n be_v peace_n and_o to_o which_o in_o regard_n of_o its_o height_n no_o evil_a can_v make_v approach_n as_o the_o holy_a prophet_n have_v aver_v psal_n 90._o of_o the_o foundation_n and_o gate_n of_o the_o city_n of_o god_n

thus_o do_v the_o holy_a apostle_n speak_v heb._n 11._o he_o expect_v that_o city_n that_o have_v foundation_n who_o artificer_n and_o maker_n be_v god_n for_o the_o apostle_n do_v in_o these_o word_n give_v a_o reason_n why_o abraham_n do_v not_o build_v a_o city_n in_o the_o land_n of_o promise_n nor_o so_o much_o as_o any_o house_n or_o place_n of_o habitation_n but_o do_v there_o live_v as_o a_o stranger_n the_o cause_n be_v in_o that_o he_o be_v instruct_v that_o that_o land_n of_o promise_n be_v but_o a_o figure_n of_o a_o great_a land_n of_o promise_n and_o therefore_o he_o be_v

architect_n or_o builder_n be_v god_n therefore_o from_o hence_o it_o result_v that_o the_o heavenly_a city_n be_v only_o that_o city_n which_o true_o and_o proper_o have_v a_o foundation_n and_o which_o as_o be_v bu●lt_v by_o god_n shall_v last_v for_o ever_o the_o city_n which_o cain_n nembroth_n ninus_n nabuchodonosor_n romulus_n and_o other_o have_v build_v in_o that_o they_o be_v after_o

hence_o we_o may_v gather_v how_o much_o more_o wise_a and_o prudent_a be_v the_o ancient_a prophet_n than_o we_o be_v for_o they_o although_o they_o l●ued_v as_o long_o again_o as_o we_o do_v now_o live_v and_o be_v to_o expect_v for_o certain_a thousand_o of_o year_n before_o they_o can_v enter_v into_o the_o heavenly_a city_n nevertheless_o they_o vouchsafe_v not_o to_o build_v either_o city_n or_o house_n but_o live_v only_o in_o tabernacle_n as_o stranger_n and_o pilgrim_n comfort_v themselves_o with_o a_o certain_a and_o lively_a faith_n and_o hope_n that_o since_o all_o thing_n upon_o
