and_o evident_a yet_o the_o strangeness_n and_o even_o incrediblenesse_n of_o the_o conclusion_n make_v i_o distrust_v my_o own_o understanding_n but_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o all_o these_o

in_o what_o you_o have_v declare_v there_o be_v a_o infinity_n of_o most_o worthy_a and_o ravish_a object_n for_o though_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n exceed_v far_o the_o sight_n of_o any_o one_o his_o perfection_n infinite_o surpass_v all_o yet_o methinks_v when_o there_o be_v nothing_o else_o to_o be_v do_v for_o ever_o but_o to_o see_v the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o the_o

light_n your_o own_o word_n convince_v you_o for_o admit_v that_o god_n exceed_v any_o one_o object_n compare_v with_o he_o as_o to_o the_o pleasure_n of_o see_v infinite_o that_o be_v to_o the_o

i_o shall_v rather_o apply_v myself_o to_o give_v you_o content_a in_o your_o demand_n then_o press_v you_o severe_o with_o your_o own_o argument_n first_o then_o consider_v if_o there_o be_v a_o colour_n or_o beauty_n of_o so_o high_a a_o degree_n that_o our_o eye_n be_v not_o capable_a to_o see_v it_o without_o the_o assistance_n of_o some_o new-found_a spectacle_n and_o this_o not_o for_o the_o littleness_n or_o distance_n of_o the_o object_n but_o because_o the_o purity_n of_o the_o light_n or_o excellency_n of_o the_o colour_n be_v so_o strike_v and_o glorious_a that_o a_o eye_n of_o this_o composure_n will_v be_v blind_v with_o the_o lustre_n of_o its_o brightness_n do_v you_o not_o conceive_v the_o sight_n of_o so_o radiant_a a_o splendour_n will_v be_v noble_a than_o the_o view_n we_o have_v of_o our_o ordinary_a world_n and_o this_o in_o the_o proportion_n that_o the_o eye_n improve_v and_o fortify_v with_o the_o new_a spectacle_n be_v better_a and_o noble_a than_o of_o its_o own_o single_a nature_n soul_n so_o far_o i_o can_v espy_v no_o way_n to_o escape_v your_o reason_n for_o if_o both_o eye_n and_o object_n be_v heighten_v in_o a_o proportion_n the_o very_a see_v and_o by_o consequence_n the_o pleasure_n take_v in_o it_o must_v of_o necessity_n rise_v in_o the_o same_o degree_n or_o i_o have_v lose_v my_o understanding_n light_n then_o ponder_v what_o i_o be_o sure_a you_o have_v be_v often_o teach_v that_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n be_v so_o great_a so_o sublime_a a_o operation_n that_o it_o exceed_v the_o power_n of_o all_o celestial_a spirit_n not_o only_o such_o as_o be_v but_o even_o all_o that_o can_v be_v make_v and_o the_o whole_a campasse_n of_o creature_n and_o whatsoever_o be_v not_o god_n consider_v now_o how_o full_a and_o

almighty_a god_n who_o perfection_n be_v beyond_o all_o comparison_n light_n in_o the_o beginning_n i_o bargain_v with_o you_o not_o to_o expect_v the_o cause_n of_o thing_n in_o this_o discourse_n but_o the_o effect_n that_o be_v what_o pleasure_n arise_v out_o of_o they_o upon_o supposition_n of_o their_o truth_n yet_o if_o you_o understand_v the_o excess_n of_o a_o spirit_n above_o body_n and_o their_o gross_a part_n conceive_v that_o god_n so_o exceed_v a_o spirit_n as_o that_o be_v more_o excellent_a than_o a_o body_n i_o mean_v not_o in_o equality_n of_o proportion_n but_o i_o will_v only_o express_v that_o their_o excellency_n be_v clear_a of_o a_o different_a kind_n so_o that_o there_o be_v no_o comparison_n of_o worth_n between_o they_o but_o the_o supereminent_a dignity_n of_o one_o so_o far_o surpass_v the_o other_o that_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o first_o the_o second_o be_v no_o way_n estimable_a a_o more_o particular_a account_n you_o may_v make_v

which_o we_o call_v be_v have_v a_o different_a nature_n in_o our_o very_a language_n and_o understanding_n from_o all_o the_o rest_n now_o our_o master_n put_v almighty_a god_n in_o the_o degree_n of_o be_v alone_o and_o by_o himself_o if_o you_o can_v thorough_o penetrate_v these_o three_o manner_n of_o apprehend_v it_o will_v be_v a_o great_a advance_v towards_o the_o knowledge_n you_o desire_v for_o the_o present_n let_v i_o acquaint_v you_o with_o this_o observation_n that_o many_o great_a clerk_n and_o study_a sage_n have_v so_o much_o esteem_v this_o notion_n that_o they_o fear_v not_o to_o pronounce_v almighty_a god_n absolute_o invisible_a to_o any_o create_a understanding_n and_o inhabit_v a_o light_n by_o no_o power_n accessible_a but_o herein_o the_o goodness_n
