the_o fire_n be_v father_n and_o the_o light_n be_v son_n and_o yet_o they_o make_v two_o principle_n one_o in_o another_o 63._o thus_o know_v that_o the_o creature_n be_v not_o god_n it_o remain_v

but_o the_o noble_a virgin_n call_v it_o continual_o to_o return_v again_o if_o it_o come_v again_o than_o it_o be_v well_o and_o ready_o receive_v but_o the_o first_o wedding_n be_v not_o keep_v again_o there_o be_v indeed_o a_o glorious_a welcome_n but_o not_o like_o the_o first_o espousal_n we_o speak_v as_o we_o know_v 67._o but_o if_o the_o bridegroom_n viz_o the_o soul_n come_v not_o

be_v indeed_o a_o glimmer_a mother_n or_o tinder_n according_a to_o the_o property_n of_o the_o true_a image_n which_o be_v propagate_v in_o all_o man_n as_o a_o possibility_n but_o not_o in_o the_o

therefore_o have_v christ_n institute_v the_o baptism_n and_o espouse_v himself_o with_o the_o mother_n or_o tinder_n to_o soul_n with_o this_o covenant_n that_o though_o the_o mother_n or_o tinder_n

which_o he_o will_v kindle_v his_o light_n 73._o and_o though_o holy_a parent_n beget_v child_n if_o i_o do_v look_v upon_o they_o i_o will_v not_o say_v here_o stand_v or_o go_v in_o this_o child_n christ_n it_o be_v whole_o christ_n he_o be_v indeed_o in_o the_o child_n but_o in_o his_o own_o principle_n and_o in_o the_o child_n property_n as_o a_o glimmer_a mother_n or_o tinder_n on_o the_o
