cessation_n of_o the_o external_a and_o visible_a action_n of_o the_o sensible_a insensible_a and_o reasonable_a creature_n and_o so_o the_o learned_a man_n call_v the_o quietness_n of_o the_o water_n

of_o the_o church_n which_o s._n john_n here_o speak_v of_o according_a to_o that_o sense_n by_o a_o allusion_n to_o the_o angel_n who_o be_v to_o perform_v the_o sacred_a function_n upon_o the_o

where_o you_o read_v that_o the_o whole_a multitude_n of_o the_o people_n be_v pray_v without_o at_o the_o time_n of_o the_o incense_n so_o by_o a_o allusion_n to_o the_o offering_n of_o the_o sacred_a incense_n where_o silence_n be_v keep_v they_o understand_v the_o silence_n of_o persecution_n wherein_o the_o church_n be_v in_o a_o profound_a silence_n by_o reason_n of_o her_o persecutor_n but_o leave_v that_o opinion_n i_o pass_v unto_o the_o silence_n of_o peace_n and_o prosperity_n to_o tell_v you_o that_o it_o be_v a_o cessation_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o church_n of_o her_o persecution_n when_o she_o public_o rest_v from_o her_o cruel_a labour_n begin_v to_o take_v breath_n and_o public_o receive_v a_o great_a and_o exceed_a consolation_n from_o her_o dear_a saviour_n and_o bless_a lord_n where_o in_o that_o condition_n the_o church_n of_o god_n remain_v in_o a_o profound_a silence_n consider_v with_o herself_o how_o god_n be_v careful_a of_o those_o that_o be_v in_o affliction_n for_o his_o sake_n &_o as_o he_o comfort_v they_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n inward_o although_o under_o the_o burden_n of_o persecution_n so_o he_o deliver_v they_o from_o their_o calamity_n and_o restore_v his_o people_n into_o a_o peaceable_a and_o sweet_a condition_n both_o in_o body_n and_o soul_n as_o it_o be_v do_v in_o the_o time_n of_o constantine_n the_o

so_o we_o may_v say_v there_o be_v silence_n in_o heaven_n when_o the_o church_n of_o god_n be_v in_o a_o peaceable_a and_o quiet_a condition_n without_o schism_n and_o division_n but_o we_o must_v
