one flake of Snow is so small that bestowed in a memorial place it cannot be seen afar off a heap of Snow is to be substituted in the middle of the stage of the second place of the eighth Repository and because this Idea hath nothing of Purple in it the proper colour of this Repository fancy a Purple Streamer two foot high placed in the midst of the heap of Snow Cap. 6. The Relation may be deduced from the subject there being Artifice in both Ideas though of much greater excellency and admiration in the latter then the former Snow being a Divine Artifice a Statue but humane XI There are three most beautiful Mothers of three very deformed Daughters Familiarity breedeth Contempt Truth procureth Hatred and Peace engendereth idleness This Idea is Direct imagining in the first place of the ninth Repository three most amiable women in very rich Apparel having Garlands on their heads sitting upon three-legged Stools and giving suck to three crying mishapen Children lapped up in pure white swadling Clothes The cry of the children gives this Idea a loud sound XII A Priviledge is that which is granted in favour of certain persons contrary to common right and is called Privilege quasi privata lege that is by a private law This may be expressed relatively by some well known person deeply in debt who procured a Priviledge for himself fairly written in white Parchment authorized with the Great Seal to protect himself from molestation of Creditors The Parchment of the same colour with the Repository excludeth all other assignation of colour as useless Lastly A dependency upon the former Idea may be deduced from a transient action supposing that this man in the second place looking on the Women in the first place doth salute them very curteously and civilly after the gentile posture by whom he is mutually saluted again XIII He doth not live who takes no care but to live The Idea of this Sentence is Scriptile and must be supposed written in a large white Table noting such observations as you had formerly delivered to this purpose which may be supposed committed to the man standing in the second place of the last Repository to hold as having no other employment whereby he is somewhat diverted from conference with the women by this means both these latter Idea's are as it were one Cap. 13. Rul 5. and being deposited in the ninth Repository needeth no attribution of colour as is shewn before Cap. 10. Rul 4 XIV The ancient Gauls and Britains used English Mastives in Military service instead of Souldiers Strabo This Idea is direct but contracted by reason of the great space to be assigned for a field Battel Let therefore this skirmish of men and dogs be imagined interwoven artificially in colours to the life in the hangings of the opposite Wall of the first place of the tenth Repository the Collars of the Mastives of Cinnamon colour the proper colour of the tenth Repository full of iron spikes XV Good works justifie faith faith justifieth the person is a Scriptile Idea therefore I suppose this sentence fairly written according to the Rules in the tenth Chapter in a large square table the frame of Cinnamon colour hanging against the opposite Wall of the second place The relation of one Idea to the other is taken from their like site both hanging against the Wall XVI Dic ubi tunc esset cum praeter cum nihil esset Tunc ubi nunc in se quoniam sibi sufficit ipse Say where was God when him beside Not any thing had been Then there where now in himself for Himself sufficeth him This is likewise a Scriptile Idea and may be fitly comprehended in the table of the preceding Idea observing such Rules as are delivered concerning repositing a Scriptile Idea and noting that two Idea's are comprized in this place Cap. 13. Rule 5. 17. In the year 1530. in the time of Charles the fift Emperor the Germane Princes exhibited their Confession of Faith at Augspurgh with a solemn protestation because of that perillous time whence afterward they and all such as embraced the same confession were called Protestants This Idea is Direct but all the ten Repositories being already occupied you must imagine ten other Repositories of the same colour as the former to be used in the same order as was proposed in the 16. Chapter So the colour of the eleventh Repository will be gold I suppose in the first place thereof an Emperial Throne adorned with badges of the Empire glittering with Gold and Gems upon which the Emperor crowned with a Golden Diadem sitteth to whom his Nobles bare-headed present their Confession fairly engrossed in paper XVIII Philip King of Macedon sent a Prolix Epistle to the Laconians wherein he did require some things which did not please them They returned him an answer containing but one syllable that is Not which the Writer did describe in so great a Character that it equalized a large Epistle Another time the same Philip menaced the same people That if he did once invade their Countrey he would cause an utter extirpation of them the Laconians on the contrary sent no other reply but this particle ei that is if insinuating thereby that the word if was well inserted by Philip who could never hope to penetrate their Region Hence was derived the Proverb Laconical brevity This is a Direct Idea these two words fancied to be drawn in two sheets of paper with a Golden Margent round about an inch broad and pasted against an opposite Wall Coherence with the former Idea offereth it selfe from similitude of subject supposing that these two words not if contain an answer to the aforesaid Confession presented to the Emperor XIX Passionate anger is temporary madness This sentence may be relatively exemplified in Saul who transported with anger endeavoured to smite Jonathan his most beloved Son and Heir with a Javelin imagining the point of the Javelin to be silver that it may in something represent the colour of the twelfth Repository It will be unnecessary now to proceed further because I think the precedent examples will sufficiently declare by what kind of Idea's all memorable things are to be expressed and in what place to be deposited If you please to essay the rehearsal of all the Idea's of this Chapter in their order without looking in the Book provided you have first read them over with good intention I doubt not but you will ingenuously confess the great utility and certainty of this act Any man may easily apprehend though he were never admonished that observable notes of Sermons are to be laid up after the same manner as these observations which I have set down for better observation as taken at a Banquet CHAP.
