6_o who_o sit_v upon_o a_o high_a throne_n every_o one_o say_v he_o have_v six_o wing_n with_o twain_o he_o cover_v his_o face_n and_o with_o twain_o he_o cover_v his_o foot_n but_o to_o signify_v that_o those_o excellent_a spirit_n who_o have_v so_o high_a a_o place_n in_o heaven_n and_o be_v the_o near_a unto_o god_n himself_o can_v comprehend_v all_o that_o be_v find_v in_o god_n neither_o

stand_v upon_o the_o shore_n do_v see_v the_o sea_n similitude_n and_o yet_o do_v not_o see_v the_o breadth_n and_o depth_n of_o it_o so_o those_o excellent_a spirit_n and_o all_o the_o other_o elect_v which_o be_v in_o heaven_n do_v see_v god_n real_o yet_o they_o can_v comprehend_v either_o the_o depth_n of_o his_o greatness_n or_o the_o altitude_n of_o his_o eternity_n and_o although_o god_n in_o the_o scripture_n be_v say_v to_o sit_v upon_o the_o cherubin_n yet_o rather_o he_o may_v be_v say_v to_o stand_v upon_o they_o so_o that_o they_o can_v approach_v unto_o he_o much_o less_o comprehend_v he_o this_o be_v the_o darkness_n which_o as_o the_o psalmist_n say_v 18_o he_o make_v his_o secret_a place_n and_o his_o pavilion_n round_o about_o he_o even_o darkness_n of_o water_n and_o cloud_n of_o the_o air_n that_o that_o may_v be_v signify_v which_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o god_n dwell_v in_o the_o light_n that_o none_o can_v attain_v unto_o 6._o and_o to_o which_o there_o be_v no_o passage_n open_a therefore_o the_o prophet_n call_v it_o darkness_n because_o it_o hindretha_v well_o the_o sight_n as_o the_o apprehension_n of_o god_n similitude_n for_o even_o as_o as_o a_o certain_a philosopher_n say_v although_o there_o can_v be_v find_v nothing_o more_o bright_a and_o visible_a than_o the_o sun_n yet_o nothing_o be_v less_o see_v than_o it_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o excellency_n of_o his_o brightness_n and_o the_o weakness_n of_o our_o sight_n so_o although_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o itself_o more_o intelligible_a than_o god_n yet_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o this_o life_n less_o understand_v than_o he_o for_o the_o same_o reason_n wherefore_o he_o that_o after_o any_o manner_n know_v god_n after_o he_o shall_v come_v to_o the_o end_n and_o further_a limit_n of_o those_o perfection_n which_o may_v be_v know_v he_o shall_v confess_v that_o he_o must_v further_o proceed_v by_o infinite_a way_n and_o that_o god_n be_v great_a than_o those_o infinite_a way_n then_o that_o he_o may_v be_v comprehend_v and_o by_o how_o much_o the_o more_o he_o acknowledge_v that_o incomprehensibility_n by_o so_o much_o the_o more_o he_o understand_v more_o of_o he_o hereupon_a it_o be_v that_o saint_n gregory_n say_v upon_o those_o word_n of_o job_n 36._o who_o do_v great_a thing_n and_o unsearchable_a and_o marvellous_a thing_n without_o

and_o seasonable_o do_v praise_v that_o thing_n he_o can_v utter_v when_o he_o be_v silent_a in_o the_o same_o opinion_n also_o be_v dionysius_n 1._o the_o secret_a and_o mystery_n ●f_o the_o
