of_o this_o pleasant_a flower_n and_o feel_v the_o odoriferous_a savour_n of_o this_o heavenly_a plant_n look_v on_o i_o pray_v you_o one_o slip_n more_o spring_v from_o this_o fragrant_a flower_n which_o i_o have_v almost_o forget_v and_o that_o be_v her_o religious_a care_n and_o conformity_n to_o the_o leviticall_a law_n or_o decent_a order_n in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n that_o then_o be_v viz._n her_o circumcise_n her_o son_n the_o eight_o day_n her_o present_v he_o to_o the_o lord_n and_o purify_n herself_o as_o on_o this_o day_n according_a as_o god_n by_o moses_n prescribe_v for_o as_o christ_n have_v no_o original_a sin_n so_o he_o need_v not_o to_o be_v circumcise_v as_o shall_v be_v show_v on_o newyeares_n day_n so_o likewise_o the_o virgin_n need_v not_o this_o outward_a purify_n which_o figure_v our_o cleanse_n from_o original_a sin_n wherein_o the_o child_n conceive_v and_o bear_v pollute_v his_o mother_n which_o be_v not_o so_o in_o this_o for_o both_o the_o conception_n and_o birth_n of_o christ_n be_v supernatural_a for_o she_o be_v say_v to_o have_v swaddle_v the_o child_n beyond_o the_o ordinary_a strength_n of_o woman_n who_o need_v a_o midwife_n neither_o be_v she_o trouble_v with_o the_o usual_a flux_n of_o other_o woman_n in_o their_o puerpery_n be_v free_a from_o the_o thing_n hereby_o signify_v viz._n a_o sinful_a child_n therefore_o the_o common_a opinion_n be_v that_o christ_n come_v forth_o without_o any_o pain_n help_n or_o pollution_n the_o womb_n of_o the_o virgin_n remain_v shut_v even_o as_o the_o sunbeam_n pierce_v the_o solid_a glass_n without_o hurt_v it_o for_o she_o receive_v no_o humane_a seed_n but_o be_v with_o child_n by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n now_o why_o this_o ceremony_n of_o sanctify_v be_v use_v unto_o christ_n by_o present_v he_o in_o the_o temple_n and_o make_v a_o oblation_n for_o he_o be_v thus_o answer_v by_o ●unius_fw-la that_o christ_n be_v ever_o holy_a from_o eternity_n as_o he_o be_v god_n and_o from_o the_o very_a moment_n of_o his_o conception_n as_o he_o be_v man_n wherefore_o he_o be_v not_o present_v before_o the_o father_n nor_o sanctify_v for_o himself_o but_o for_o we_o according_a to_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o law_n now_o such_o thing_n as_o in_o the_o scripture_n be_v say_v to_o be_v sanctify_v be_v either_o sanctify_a indeed_o by_o institution_n or_o sacrament_n indeed_o in_o their_o nature_n or_o by_o declaration_n in_o nature_n when_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n thing_n be_v make_v holy_a which_o be_v not_o so_o before_o by_o declaration_n when_o thing_n before_o holy_a be_v manifest_v to_o be_v so_o second_o by_o institution_n thing_n be_v sanctify_v by_o virtue_n of_o god_n command_n and_o promise_v of_o blessing_n as_o the_o sabbath_n be_v sanctify_v three_o by_o sacrament_n thing_n be_v sanctify_v either_o absolute_o or_o relative_o that_o be_v both_o by_o signification_n and_o by_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o thing_n signify_v and_o thus_o christ_n be_v sanctify_v though_o he_o be_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o sacrament_n first_o because_o be_v man_n he_o will_v obey_v the_o law_n under_o which_o he_o be_v make_v second_o that_o he_o may_v sanctify_v the_o law_n in_o his_o own_o person_n by_o institution_n he_o be_v sanctify_v for_o we_o we_o receive_v the_o blessing_n through_o he_o as_o our_o first_o bear_v and_o priest_n abrogate_a the_o leviticall_a priesthood_n and_o by_o manifestation_n he_o be_v sanctify_v when_o by_o observe_v this_o law_n he_o be_v declare_v holy_a wherefore_o this_o act_n of_o the_o virgin_n be_v voluntary_a as_o i_o have_v show_v it_o be_v to_o show_v her_o zeal_n and_o conformity_n to_o the_o decent_a order_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n to_o this_o may_v be_v add_v her_o constant_a course_n in_o keep_v the_o passeover_n every_o year_n which_o be_v a_o work_n of_o great_a labour_n &_o travel_n but_o now_o these_o ceremonial_a shadow_n at_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o most_o glorious_a bright_a sun_n christ_n jesus_n vanish_v away_o the_o christian_a church_n in_o all_o age_n since_o have_v in_o place_n or_o in_o stead_n of_o the_o jew_n purification_n ordain_v and_o institute_v the_o purification_n of_o the_o heart_n by_o a_o true_a lively_a and_o justify_v faith_n and_o the_o purification_n of_o the_o life_n by_o unfeigned_a and_o hearty_a repentance_n in_o that_o commendable_a and_o decent_a order_n of_o church_a woman_n after_o their_o great_a deliverance_n from_o their_o pain_n and_o peril_n of_o childbirth_n &_o enjoin_v they_o to_o

as_o mary_n here_o be_v to_o conform_v themselves_o to_o the_o godly_a discipline_n of_o the_o public_a worship_n of_o god_n in_o his_o church_n if_o ability_n of_o body_n hinder_v not_o as_o well_o

for_o the_o solitary_a turtle_n and_o the_o associable_a dove_n do_v both_o together_o set_v forth_o the_o secret_a tear_n and_o public_a meeting_n of_o god_n people_n in_o divine_a worship_n for_o
