none_o other_o but_o the_o spotless_a and_o glorify_a humanity_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god._n this_o throne_n be_v the_o lord_n jesus_n this_o grace_n come_v from_o the_o divine_a majesty_n as_o

up_o of_o this_o throne_n the_o angel_n flock_v round_o about_o it_o and_o 8._o the_o beast_n and_o the_o elder_n gather_v together_o to_o see_v it_o when_o this_o throne_n be_v set_v in_o heaven_n there_o be_v silence_n all_o the_o heavenly_a host_n have_v no_o leisure_n to_o talk_v they_o be_v surprise_v with_o sight_n and_o wonder_n when_o this_o throne_n be_v set_v in_o heaven_n what_o

of_o a_o trumpet_n talk_v with_o i_o which_o say_v come_v up_o hither_o and_o i_o will_v show_v thou_o thing_n which_o must_v be_v hereafter_o and_o immediate_a y_o i_o be_v in_o the_o spirit_n and_o behold_v a_o throne_n be_v set_v in_o heaven_n and_o one_o sit_v upon_o the_o throne_n this_o throne_n be_v jesus_n christ_n exalt_v set_a that_o be_v lift_v up_o not_o as_o upon_o the_o cross_n to_o

the_o lord_n jesus_n as_o a_o throne_n set_v in_o heaven_n and_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n rest_v and_o abide_v upon_o he_o and_o give_v out_o by_o he_o all_o thing_n not_o only_o his_o word_n but_o all_o his_o dispensation_n and_o providence_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n and_o this_o bless_a thing_n among_o the_o rest_n even_o a_o pure_a river_n of_o water_n of_o life_n clear_a as_o crystal_n but_o i_o leave_v this_o and_o proceed_v to_o the_o four_o and_o last_o thing_n namely_o to_o the_o nature_n and_o quality_n of_o this_o water_n it_o be_v say_v to_o be_v pure_a and_o clear_a pure_a and_o clear_a as_o crystal_n and_o he_o show_v i_o a_o pure_a river_n of_o water_n of_o life_n clear_a as_o crystal_n i_o know_v that_o there_o be_v a_o twofold_a quality_n in_o a_o thing_n one_o with_o respect_n to_o its_o nature_n the_o other_o with_o respect_n to_o its_o operation_n the_o first_o of_o these_o be_v inherent_a and_o remain_v in_o the_o subject_a be_v as_o such_o and_o so_o for_o the_o most_o part_n useless_a the_o other_o be_v put_v forth_o then_o when_o it_o meet_v with_o fit_a matter_n on_o which_o it_o may_v free_o work_v as_o to_o instance_n aqua_fw-la aquavitae_fw-la the_o very_a metaphor_n here_o make_v use_n of_o have_v a_o quality_n inherent_a in_o it_o but_o keep_v it_o stop_v up_o in_o a_o bottle_n &_o then_o who_o will_n may_v faint_v notwithstanding_o but_o apply_v it_o apply_v it_o fit_o and_o to_o such_o as_o have_v need_n thereof_o and_o then_o you_o may_v see_v its_o quality_n by_o the_o operation_n this_o water_n or_o river_n of_o grace_n be_v call_v i_o say_v the_o water_n of_o life_n and_o so_o consequent_o have_v a_o most_o bless_a inherent_a quality_n but_o its_o operation_n be_v see_v by_o its_o work_n the_o which_o it_o do_v only_o then_o when_o it_o be_v administer_v and_o receive_v for_o those_o end_n for_o which_o it_o be_v administer_v for_o than_o it_o revive_v where_o life_n be_v and_o gives_z life_n where_o it_o be_v not_o and_o thus_o far_o in_o the_o general_n have_v we_o speak_v to_o it_o already_o we_o will_v therefore_o in_o this_o place_n more_o particular_o though_o brief_o speak_v a_o few_o word_n unto_o it_o first_o then_o this_o water_n of_o life_n be_v the_o very_a groundwork_n of_o life_n in_o we_o though_o not_o the_o groundwork_n of_o life_n for_o we_o the_o groundwork_n of_o life_n for_o we_o be_v the_o passion_n and_o merit_n of_o christ_n this_o be_v that_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o which_o grace_n be_v give_v unto_o we_o as_o be_v intimate_v by_o the_o text_n it_o proceed_v from_o the_o throne_n of_o god_n who_o be_v christ._n christ_n then_o have_v obtain_v grace_n for_o we_o must_v needs_o be_v precedent_n as_o to_o his_o merit_n to_o that_o grace_n he_o have_v so_o obtain_v beside_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o the_o spirit_n and_o grace_n come_v from_o god_n through_o he_o therefore_o as_o to_o the_o communication_n of_o grace_n to_o we_o it_o be_v the_o fruit_n of_o his_o merit_n and_o purchase_v but_o i_o say_v in_o we_o grace_n be_v the_o groundwork_n of_o life_n for_o though_o we_o may_v be_v say_v before_o to_o live_v virtual_o in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n before_o god_n yet_o we_o be_v dead_a in_o ourselves_o and_o so_o must_v be_v until_o the_o spirit_n be_v pour_v upon_o we_o from_o on_o high_a for_o the_o spirit_n be_v life_n and_o its_o grace_n be_v life_n and_o when_o that_o be_v infuse_v by_o god_n from_o the_o throne_n than_o we_o live_v and_o not_o till_o then_o and_o hence_o it_o be_v call_v as_o before_o live_v water_n the_o water_n of_o life_n spring_v up_o in_o we_o into_o everlasting_a life_n the_o spirit_n then_o and_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o be_v the_o river_n here_o speak_v of_o be_v that_o and_o that_o only_a which_o can_v cause_v we_o to_o live_v that_o be_v life_n to_o the_o soul_n as_o the_o soul_n be_v life_n to_o the_o body_n all_o man_n therefore_o as_o be_v say_v afore_o though_o

until_o they_o shall_v drink_v it_o in_o by_o vehement_a thirst_n as_o the_o parch_a ground_n drink_v in_o the_o rain_n now_o when_o this_o live_a water_n be_v receive_v it_o take_v up_o its_o seat_n
