hope_v then_o to_o have_v make_v a_o end_n of_o these_o meditation_n then_o i_o consider_v that_o as_o i_o begin_v this_o feast_n with_o speak_v of_o mystery_n so_o there_o can_v not_o be_v a_o better_a subject_n choose_v for_o the_o seal_n up_o of_o the_o same_o and_o this_o text_n that_o i_o have_v choose_v now_o will_v answer_v that_o first_o scripture_n for_o indeed_o it_o be_v much_o at_o one_o for_o it_o show_v that_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v worthy_a not_o only_o of_o the_o study_n of_o apostle_n but_o of_o angel_n therefore_o it_o be_v that_o i_o have_v now_o make_v choice_n of_o this_o scripture_n to_o be_v the_o accomplishment_n and_o fulfil_n of_o that_o first_o day_n indeed_o they_o be_v very_o far_o fetch_v however_o they_o have_v a_o good_a

since_o it_o speak_v of_o angel_n and_o agree_v with_o the_o solemnity_n that_o be_v past_a in_o a_o better_a and_o near_a nature_n than_o the_o former_a the_o first_o text_n tell_v we_o of_o the_o

the_o preach_a of_o the_o apostle_n he_o close_v all_o up_o with_o this_o honourable_a conclusion_n into_o these_o thing_n the_o angel_n desire_v to_o look_v that_o i_o may_v the_o better_a therefore_o go_v on_o with_o the_o resolution_n and_o full_a explication_n of_o these_o word_n i_o will_v reduce_v all_o that_o i_o be_o to_o say_v of_o they_o to_o these_o three_o part_n that_o natural_o rise_v out_o of_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o word_n qui_fw-la angeli_fw-la quae_fw-la bona_fw-la quis_fw-la radix_fw-la desiderij_fw-la who_o be_v the_o angel_n here_o speak_v of_o who_o the_o apostle_n say_v they_o desire_v to_o look_v into_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o incarnation_n what_o those_o good_a thing_n be_v that_o they_o desire_v to_o look_v into_o and_o what_o be_v the_o root_n of_o this_o desire_n that_o carry_v they_o to_o this_o inspection_n these_o be_v the_o three_o thing_n i_o shall_v consider_v first_o qui_fw-la angeli_fw-la who_o these_o angel_n be_v didimus_n alexandrinus_n in_o his_o commentary_n upon_o this_o place_n it_o seem_v in_o his_o time_n they_o interpret_v this_o place_n of_o the_o evil_a spirit_n the_o evil_a angel_n and_o lorinus_n the_o jesuit_n he_o go_v about_o to_o show_v so_o much_o out_o of_o clemens_n alexandrinus_n that_o clemens_n not_o only_o though_o i_o find_v not_o the_o place_n make_v mention_n of_o the_o interpretation_n but_o refute_v they_o therefore_o here_o now_o there_o be_v good_a occasion_n give_v to_o search_v well_o into_o the_o first_o thing_n to_o know_v who_o these_o student_n be_v these_o that_o be_v the_o glorious_a beholder_n and_o scrutator_n of_o this_o heavenly_a mystery_n that_o be_v the_o inspector_n here_o speak_v of_o these_o good_a inquisitor_n to_o know_v what_o angel_n they_o be_v therefore_o brief_o i_o will_v reduce_v it_o to_o these_o proposition_n the_o first_o negative_a that_o the_o place_n can_v possible_o be_v understand_v of_o evil_a angel_n of_o evil_a spirit_n for_o these_o two_o reason_n one_o reason_n be_v take_v from_o the_o name_n and_o appellation_n of_o angel_n though_o the_o name_n be_v give_v sometime_o in_o scripture_n to_o the_o evil_a spirit_n yet_o general_o when_o it_o be_v apply_v to_o they_o there_o be_v some_o word_n of_o addition_n annex_v whereby_o it_o may_v be_v know_v of_o who_o the_o scripture_n speak_v the_o evil_a angel_n the_o angel_n of_o satan_n the_o angel_n of_o the_o bottomless_a pit_n the_o angel_n that_o keep_v not_o their_o first_o estate_n the_o angel_n that_o sin_v and_o the_o like_a or_o if_o there_o be_v not_o some_o such_o clause_n of_o addition_n yet_o there_o be_v always_o some_o circumstance_n of_o interpretation_n that_o direct_v and_o point_n out_o who_o those_o angel_n be_v when_o the_o scripture_n call_v those_o evil_a spirit_n angel_n as_o the_o devil_n and_o his_o angel_n rev._n 12._o know_v you_o not_o that_o you_o shall_v judge_v the_o angel_n 1_o cor._n every_o one_o must_v needs_o be_v sure_a that_o this_o be_v mean_v of_o the_o evil_a angel_n it_o can_v be_v mean_v of_o the_o good_a there_o be_v some_o circumstance_n always_o in_o the_o text_n that_o point_v it_o out_o when_o they_o be_v say_v to_o be_v angel_n but_o for_o the_o holy_a angel_n the_o bless_a spirit_n they_o be_v frequent_o and_o general_o call_v so_o in_o scripture_n for_o the_o most_o part_n if_o not_o always_o when_o this_o word_n be_v simple_o meet_v with_o it_o be_v appliable_a to_o good_a angel_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v very_o evident_a because_o the_o name_n of_o angel_n be_v a_o name_n of_o function_n by_o nature_n they_o be_v spirit_n by_o office_n they_o be_v angel_n it_o be_v a_o name_n of_o office_n and_o function_n and_o employment_n since_o the_o name_n of_o angel_n be_v a_o name_n of_o that_o holy_a office_n and_o employment_n that_o god_n put_v they_o to_o and_o since_o the_o good_a angel_n be_v only_o put_v by_o god_n upon_o such_o employment_n the_o evil_a angel_n have_v only_o his_o restraint_n and_o permission_n they_o have_v not_o his_o direction_n therefore_o the_o name_n of_o angel_n can_v proper_o be_v apply_v to_o evil_a spirit_n without_o abuse_n of_o the_o name_n though_o they_o be_v spirit_n as_o the_o good_a angel_n be_v they_o be_v not_o angel_n proper_o by_o nature_n they_o be_v spirit_n but_o by_o employment_n devil_n in_o malice_n devil_n but_o the_o other_o as_o they_o be_v in_o nature_n spirit_n so_o in_o employment_n they_o be_v angel_n angel_n that_o be_v holy_a angel_n because_o the_o name_n be_v general_o apply_v to_o good_a angel_n when_o there_o be_v no_o such_o addition_n that_o reason_n be_v sufficient_a that_o be_v one_o reason_n why_o it_o can_v be_v mean_v of_o evil_a angel_n but_o that_o be_v not_o all_o another_o reason_n be_v take_v from_o the_o latitude_n and_o measure_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o devil_n and_o evil_a angel_n though_o their_o knowledge_n be_v great_a of_o natural_a thing_n and_o much_o strengthen_v by_o experience_n yet_o for_o the_o divine_a mystery_n of_o redemption_n their_o knowledge_n be_v altogether_o defective_a in_o it_o they_o be_v very_o cunning_a it_o be_v very_o likely_a in_o the_o scripture_n because_o they_o may_v have_v they_o ready_a to_o ensnare_v man_n but_o the_o save_a mystery_n of_o the_o gospel_n i_o make_v doubt_n whether_o they_o true_o understand_v they_o i_o be_o confident_a the_o devil_n do_v not_o understand_v the_o first_o promise_n that_o be_v give_v so_o long_o before_o how_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o woman_n shall_v break_v
