time_n become_v a_o spirit_n of_o savoury_a and_o affectionate_a discernment_n betwixt_o the_o evil_a and_o the_o good_a betwixt_o the_o pure_a water_n that_o flow_v from_o the_o holy_a spirit_n and_o the_o muddy_a and_o tumultuous_a suggestion_n of_o the_o flesh_n 7_o and_o thus_o be_v man_n enable_v in_o a_o live_a manner_n to_o distinguish_v betwixt_o the_o earthly_a and_o heavenly_a life_n 8_o for_o the_o heavenly_a principle_n be_v now_o make_v to_o he_o a_o spirit_n of_o savoury_a discernment_n and_o be_v teach_v by_o god_n after_o this_o manner_n he_o will_v not_o fail_v to_o pronounce_v that_o this_o principle_n whereby_o he_o have_v so_o quick_a and_o lively_a a_o sense_n of_o what_o be_v good_a and_o evil_n be_v heavenly_a indeed_o and_o thus_o ignorance_n and_o enquiry_n be_v make_v the_o second_o day_n progress_n 9_o now_o the_o sweetness_n of_o the_o upper_a water_n be_v so_o well_o relish_v by_o man_n he_o have_v a_o great_a nauseat_n against_o the_o low_a feculent_a water_n of_o the_o unbounded_a desire_n of_o the_o flesh_n so_o that_o god_n add_v power_n to_o his_o will_n the_o inordinate_a desire_n of_o the_o flesh_n be_v drive_v within_o set_a limit_n and_o he_o have_v a_o command_n over_o himself_o to_o become_v more_o stay_v and_o steady_a 10_o and_o this_o steadiness_n and_o command_n he_o get_v over_o himself_o he_o be_v teach_v by_o the_o divine_a principle_n in_o he_o to_o compare_v to_o the_o earth_n or_o dry_a land_n for_o safenesse_n and_o stability_n but_o the_o desire_n of_o the_o flesh_n he_o look_v upon_o as_o a_o dangerous_a and_o turbulent_a sea_n wherefore_o the_o bound_a of_o they_o thus_o and_o arrive_v to_o a_o state_n of_o command_n over_o a_o man_n self_n and_o freedom_n from_o such_o colluctation_n and_o collision_n as_o be_v find_v in_o the_o work_a sea_n the_o divine_a nature_n in_o he_o can_v not_o but_o approve_v as_o good_a 11_o for_o so_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v by_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o according_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o thing_n that_o this_o state_n of_o sobriety_n in_o man_n he_o be_v in_o so_o good_a a_o measure_n rid_v of_o the_o boisterousnesse_n of_o evil_a concupiscence_n give_v he_o leisure_n so_o to_o cultivate_v his_o mind_n with_o principle_n of_o virtue_n and_o honesty_n that_o he_o be_v as_o a_o fruitful_a field_n who_o the_o lord_n have_v bless_v 12_o send_v forth_o out_o of_o himself_o sundry_a sort_n of_o fruitbearing_a tree_n herb_n and_o flower_n that_o be_v various_a kind_n of_o good_a work_n to_o the_o praise_n of_o god_n and_o the_o help_n of_o his_o neighbour_n and_o god_n and_o his_o own_o conscience_n witness_v to_o he_o that_o this_o be_v good_a 13_o and_o thus_o ignorance_n and_o inquiry_n be_v make_v the_o three_o day_n progress_n 14_o now_o when_o god_n have_v proceed_v so_o far_o in_o the_o spiritual_a creation_n as_o to_o raise_v the_o heavenly_a principle_n in_o man_n to_o that_o power_n and_o efficacy_n that_o it_o take_v hold_v on_o his_o affection_n and_o bring_v forth_o laudable_a work_n of_o righteousness_n he_o thereupon_o add_v a_o very_a eminent_a accession_n of_o light_n and_o strength_n set_v before_o his_o eye_n sundry_a sort_n of_o luminary_n in_o the_o heavenly_a or_o intellectual_a nature_n whereby_o he_o may_v be_v able_a more_o notorious_o to_o distinguish_v betwixt_o the_o day_n and_o the_o night_n that_o be_v betwixt_o the_o condition_n of_o a_o true_o illuminate_v soul_n and_o one_o that_o be_v as_o yet_o much_o benight_a in_o ignorance_n and_o estrange_v from_o the_o true_a knowledge_n of_o god_n for_o according_a to_o the_o difference_n of_o these_o light_n it_o be_v signify_v to_o a_o man_n in_o what_o condition_n himself_o or_o other_o be_v in_o whether_o it_o be_v indeed_o day_n or_o night_n with_o they_o summer_n or_o winter_n spring_n time_n or_o harvest_n or_o what_o period_n or_o progress_n they_o have_v make_v in_o the_o divine_a life_n 15_o and_o though_o there_o be_v so_o great_a a_o difference_n betwixt_o these_o light_n yet_o the_o mean_a be_v better_o than_o mere_a darkness_n and_o serve_v in_o some_o measure_n or_o other_o to_o give_v light_n to_o the_o earthly_a man_n 16_o but_o among_o these_o many_o light_n which_o god_n make_v to_o appear_v to_o man_n there_o be_v two_o more_o eminent_a by_o far_o then_o the_o rest_n the_o great_a of_o which_o two_o have_v his_o dominion_n by_o day_n and_o be_v a_o faithful_a guide_n to_o those_o which_o walk_v in_o the_o day_n that_o be_v that_o work_v the_o work_n of_o righteousness_n and_o this_o great_a light_n be_v but_o one_o but_o do_v be_v add_v mighty_o invigorate_v the_o former_a daylight_n man_n walk_v by_o and_o it_o be_v a_o more_o full_a appearance_n of_o the_o sun_n of_o righteousness_n which_o be_v a_o hearty_a and_o sincere_a love_n of_o god_n and_o a_o man_n neighbour_n the_o lesser_a of_o these_o two_o great_a light_n have_v dominion_n by_o night_n and_o be_v a_o rule_n to_o those_o who_o inward_a mind_n be_v hold_v as_o yet_o too_o strong_o in_o the_o work_n of_o darkness_n and_o it_o be_v a_o principle_n weak_a and_o variable_a as_o the_o moon_n and_o be_v call_v inconstancy_n of_o life_n and_o knowledge_n there_o be_v alsoan_v abundance_n of_o other_o little_a light_n thick_o disperse_v over_o the_o whole_a understanding_n of_o man_n as_o the_o star_n in_o the_o firmament_n which_o you_o may_v call_v notionality_n or_o multiplicity_n of_o ineffectual_a opinion_n 17_o but_o the_o worst_a of_o all_o these_o be_v better_o than_o downright_a sensuality_n and_o brutishness_n and_o therefore_o god_n may_v well_o be_v say_v to_o set_v they_o up_o in_o the_o heavenly_a part_n of_o man_n his_o understanding_n to_o give_v what_o light_n they_o be_v able_a to_o his_o earthly_a part_n his_o corrupt_a and_o inordinate_a affection_n 18_o and_o as_o the_o sun_n of_o righteousness_n that_o be_v the_o hearty_a and_o sincere_a love_n of_o god_n and_o a_o man_n neighbour_n by_o his_o single_a light_n and_o warmth_n with_o chearfulnesse_n and_o safety_n guide_v they_o that_o be_v in_o the_o day_n so_o that_o more_o uneven_a and_o changeable_a principle_n and_o the_o numerous_a light_n of_o notionality_n may_v conduct_v they_o as_o well_o as_o they_o be_v able_a that_o be_v benight_a in_o darkness_n and_o what_o be_v most_o of_o all_o considerable_a a_o man_n by_o the_o wide_a difference_n of_o these_o latter_a light_n from_o that_o of_o the_o day_n may_v discern_v when_o himself_o or_o another_o be_v benight_a in_o the_o state_n of_o unrighteousness_n for_o multifarious_a notionality_n and_o inconstancy_n of_o life_n and_o knowledge_n be_v certain_a sign_n that_o a_o man_n be_v in_o the_o night_n but_o the_o stick_n to_o
