four_o crown_n they_o may_v hereupon_o go_v and_o make_v this_o impression_n in_o the_o imagination_n of_o this_o great_a person_n however_o i_o do_v not_o see_v in_o this_o dream_n any_o the_o least_o character_n which_o do_v necessary_o oblige_v we_o to_o refer_v it_o to_o evil_a angel_n no_o more_o than_o brief_o to_o mention_v it_o that_o of_o calpurnia_n the_o wife_n of_o caesar_n who_o the_o night_n immediate_o before_o the_o death_n of_o her_o husband_n dream_v that_o she_o see_v one_o run_v he_o through_o with_o a_o sword_n in_o the_o senate_n though_o the_o relation_n which_o she_o make_v and_o the_o prayer_n by_o which_o she_o endeavour_v to_o divert_v he_o from_o the_o senate_n that_o day_n prove_v all_o ineffectual_a but_o good_a angel_n may_v give_v we_o good_a advertisement_n though_o we_o do_v not_o follow_v their_o advice_n and_o this_o be_v a_o testimony_n of_o the_o care_n they_o have_v for_o the_o conservation_n of_o the_o life_n of_o prince_n as_o the_o neglect_n thereof_o be_v a_o proof_n of_o the_o imprudence_n of_o those_o who_o be_v concern_v therein_o it_o be_v not_o relate_v to_o we_o in_o scripture_n what_o be_v the_o dream_n of_o pilat_n wife_n when_o she_o send_v to_o pray_v he_o not_o to_o have_v any_o thing_n to_o do_v in_o the_o death_n of_o our_o lord_n christ_n however_o it_o be_v it_o seem_v to_o have_v come_v from_o the_o impression_n of_o a_o good_a angel_n though_o pilate_n do_v not_o submit_v thereunto_o however_o it_o be_v sufficient_a for_o the_o angel_n in_o this_o case_n to_o have_v cause_v his_o wife_n thus_o to_o give_v testimony_n to_o the_o innocence_n of_o our_o saviour_n however_o i_o say_v it_o be_v for_o i_o will_v not_o make_v it_o a_o article_n of_o faith_n and_o every_o one_o here_o may_v use_v the_o liberty_n of_o his_o own_o judgement_n perhaps_o this_o be_v do_v to_o distinguish_v betwixt_o those_o dream_n which_o angel_n cause_n in_o our_o imagination_n by_o the_o express_a command_n of_o god_n and_o those_o which_o proceed_v from_o their_o operation_n by_o bare_a permission_n those_o aught_o to_o be_v more_o powerful_a and_o efficacious_a for_o as_o much_o as_o they_o be_v intend_v for_o the_o execution_n of_o some_o design_n which_o god_n have_v purpose_v with_o himself_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o he_o so_o far_o dispose_v the_o understanding_n of_o those_o who_o these_o vision_n concern_v that_o they_o defer_v so_o much_o to_o they_o as_o be_v necessary_a to_o bring_v about_o the_o design_n but_o these_o come_n only_o from_o the_o good_a inclination_n of_o angel_n which_o god_n suffer_v they_o to_o follow_v and_o to_o discover_v on_o such_o and_o such_o occasion_n it_o be_v of_o no_o great_a importance_n though_o they_o do_v not_o produce_v the_o effect_n which_o their_o author_n design_v and_o it_o be_v sufficient_a satisfaction_n to_o they_o that_o they_o have_v show_v that_o good_a will_n which_o they_o have_v for_o man_n and_o especial_o for_o those_o who_o be_v eminent_a in_o virtue_n or_o dignity_n chap._n iii_o of_o divine_a dream_n as_o for_o divine_a dream_n they_o be_v also_o of_o two_o sort_n the_o one_o contain_v future_a thing_n under_o enigmatical_a and_o mysterious_a representation_n the_o other_o be_v much_o more_o plain_a and_o naked_a there_o be_v very_o remarkable_a example_n of_o the_o first_o sort_n in_o the_o history_n of_o joseph_n as_o well_o in_o those_o which_o concern_v himself_o to_o foretell_v his_o own_o grandeur_n as_o in_o those_o of_o pharaoh_n to_o forewarn_v he_o of_o the_o seven_o year_n of_o plenty_n and_o seven_o other_o of_o dearth_n the_o image_n of_o nabuchodonosor_n be_v yet_o more_o remarkable_a as_o the_o stone_n cut_v without_o hand_n which_o from_o small_a beginning_n come_v to_o be_v a_o great_a mountain_n and_o fill_v all_o the_o world_n there_o be_v example_n of_o the_o other_o kind_n in_o the_o history_n of_o the_o birth_n of_o our_o saviour_n as_o well_o those_o which_o be_v send_v to_o the_o wise_a man_n to_o warn_v they_o to_o return_v some_o other_o way_n then_o where_o herod_n do_v expect_v they_o as_o in_o those_o by_o which_o joseph_n be_v command_v to_o carry_v christ_n into_o egypt_n and_o to_o bring_v he_o back_o again_o in_o due_a time_n as_o for_o iacob_n vision_n which_o be_v convey_v to_o he_o in_o a_o dream_n when_o he_o go_v into_o padan-aram_n it_o be_v compound_v of_o both_o the_o sort_n for_o the_o ladder_n upon_o which_o the_o angel_n do_v ascend_v and_o descend_v have_v without_o doubt_n a_o mysterious_a signification_n which_o relate_v to_o christ_n but_o the_o word_n which_o he_o hear_v contain_v the_o promise_n plain_a and_o intelligible_a which_o be_v not_o wrap_v up_o in_o the_o vail_n of_o dark_a and_o mysterious_a representation_n now_o concern_v these_o and_o all_o other_o divine_a dream_n in_o general_a we_o may_v make_v these_o three_o inquiry_n 1._o why_o god_n have_v sometime_o reveal_v himself_o in_o dream_n to_o his_o servant_n 2._o how_o they_o can_v certain_o know_v that_o those_o dream_n have_v god_n for_o their_o author_n and_o that_o they_o be_v not_o vain_a delusion_n 3._o whether_o this_o way_n of_o revelation_n by_o dream_n be_v yet_o practise_v and_o whether_o god_n do_v still_o make_v use_n of_o it_o under_o the_o dispensation_n of_o the_o gospel_n as_o for_o the_o first_o of_o these_o question_n the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o that_o god_n at_o divers_a time_n and_o in_o sundry_a manner_n speak_v of_o old_a to_o the_o father_n by_o the_o prophet_n but_o have_v now_o in_o these_o last_o day_n speak_v unto_o we_o by_o his_o son_n where_o he_o oppose_v the_o dispensation_n of_o the_o son_n to_o the_o former_a of_o law_n in_o three_o thing_n 1._o that_o god_n former_o speak_v to_o the_o father_n by_o the_o prophet_n but_o have_v now_o speak_v to_o we_o by_o his_o son_n 2._o this_o he_o do_v at_o divers_a time_n that_o be_v he_o reveal_v the_o knowledge_n of_o himself_o by_o degree_n and_o as_o it_o be_v by_o parcel_n add_v one_o light_n to_o another_o successive_o whereas_o he_o have_v now_o reveal_v to_o we_o all_o at_o once_o so_o much_o of_o his_o truth_n as_o he_o design_v we_o to_o know_v even_o to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n 3._o he_o now_o only_o reveal_v himself_o in_o one_o way_n viz._n by_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n whereas_o then_o he_o do_v it_o in_o divers_a manner_n and_o these_o divers_a manner_n may_v refer_v to_o those_o several_a kind_n of_o faculty_n which_o as_o i_o say_v before_o we_o make_v use_v of_o for_o the_o get_n and_o preserve_v of_o knowledge_n viz._n the_o external_n sense_n the_o internal_a and_o the_o understanding_n as_o for_o the_o external_n god_n make_v little_a use_n of_o three_o of_o they_o for_o this_o end_n viz._n touch_v smell_a and_o taste_v but_o do_v frequent_o employ_v the_o other_o two_o for_o he_o have_v be_v present_v visible_o to_o our_o eye_n as_o well_o in_o humane_a appearance_n as_o to_o abraham_n and_o manoe_n and_o to_o some_o other_o as_o in_o other_o shape_n as_o to_o moses_n in_o the_o burn_a bush_n and_o as_o for_o hear_v he_o have_v often_o cause_v voice_n to_o be_v hear_v from_o heaven_n as_o by_o abraham_n and_o also_o by_o moses_n in_o the_o bush_n and_o in_o many_o other_o instance_n as_o for_o the_o internal_a sense_n he_o employ_v they_o both_o wake_n and_o sleep_v 1._o wake_v by_o ecstasy_n which_o he_o have_v sometime_o send_v to_o his_o servant_n for_o than_o he_o act_v in_o such_o manner_n upon_o their_o imagination_n by_o that_o power_n and_o virtue_n which_o he_o there_o display_v and_o make_v so_o great_a and_o so_o powerful_a a_o abstraction_n of_o their_o soul_n from_o their_o external_n sense_n that_o their_o function_n do_v altogether_o cease_v though_o they_o be_v not_o then_o asleep_a and_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n he_o imprint_v in_o their_o fancy_n the_o image_n of_o extraordinary_a and_o admirable_a thing_n and_o make_v they_o inward_o to_o understand_v the_o voice_n which_o give_v they_o either_o some_o instruction_n or_o command_n we_o see_v a_o famous_a example_n hereof_o in_o s._n peter_n when_o he_o see_v the_o sheet_n descend_v from_o heaven_n and_o hear_v the_o voice_n kill_v and_o eat_v for_o he_o be_v then_o in_o a_o ecstasy_n or_o trance_n and_o the_o thing_n which_o s._n john_n relate_v to_o we_o in_o his_o revelation_n be_v thus_o convey_v to_o he_o 2._o in_o sleep_n by_o dream_n such_o as_o i_o have_v already_o mention_v and_o other_o of_o the_o like_a nature_n and_o there_o be_v little_a difference_n betwixt_o ecstasy_n and_o dream_n only_o that_o though_o in_o both_o there_o be_v a_o cessation_n of_o the_o function_n of_o the_o bodily_a sense_n yet_o in_o a_o ecstasy_n it_o be_v not_o altogether_o so_o entire_a and_o absolute_a as_o
