great_a be_v the_o fairness_n and_o pleasure_n of_o eternal_a light_n that_o if_o one_o may_v not_o live_v there_o long_o than_o one_o day_n for_o this_o only_a innumerable_a year_n full_a of_o the_o

without_o comprehension_n peace_n without_o invasion_n in_o this_o world_n our_o sense_n be_v benumb_v &_o freeze_v with_o the_o extremity_n of_o misery_n coldness_n but_o in_o heaven_n there_o

unto_o our_o eye_n music_n unto_o our_o ear_n sweetness_n to_o our_o taste_n contentment_n to_o our_o soul_n the_o state_n of_o the_o church_n militant_a here_o in_o this_o world_n be_v like_o the_o ark_n float_v upon_o water_n like_o a_o lily_n grow_v among_o thorn_n like_o christ_n ship_n in_o the_o 8_o of_o matthew_n cover_v with_o wave_n and_o yet_o not_o drown_v but_o in_o the_o second_o

our_o godly_a endeavour_n shall_v be_v so_o well_o recompense_v in_o the_o future_a life_n let_v we_o abandon_v all_o vicious_a pleasure_n &_o never_o be_v recall_v to_o the_o vomit_n of_o carnal_a

since_o i_o have_v as_o it_o be_v light_v a_o candle_n to_o the_o glorious_a sunshine_n of_o this_o heavenly_a glory_n which_o can_v any_o way_n be_v better_a shadow_v out_o with_o the_o best_a

of_o hell_n to_o the_o joy_n of_o heaven_n for_o as_o beauty_n seem_v more_o excellent_a when_o it_o be_v paralel_v with_o deformity_n so_o will_v heaven_n show_v more_o glorious_a when_o it_o be_v compare_v to_o hell_n for_o as_o it_o be_v a_o axiom_n with_o the_o logician_n of_o contrary_a thing_n the_o reason_n be_v contrary_a so_o in_o this_o contrariety_n in_o heaven_n and_o in_o hell_n he_o which_o do_v perceive_v the_o joy_n in_o heaven_n may_v easy_o conjecture_v at_o the_o torment_n in_o hell_n if_o the_o joy_n in_o heaven_n can_v be_v express_v by_o the_o tongue_n of_o angel_n than_o the_o torment_n of_o hell_n can_v be_v declare_v by_o the_o best_a orator_n for_o as_o those_o two_o place_n be_v distant_a in_o quality_n so_o their_o joy_n and_o pain_n be_v equal_a in_o quantity_n if_o that_o the_o joy_n of_o heaven_n be_v infinite_a the_o pain_n of_o hell_n must_v consequent_o follow_v to_o be_v infinite_a now_o then_o since_o these_o two_o opposite_a place_n be_v

that_o this_o be_v the_o great_a impediment_n for_o a_o man_n not_o willing_o to_o welcome_a death_n because_o he_o be_v wonderful_o afraid_a lest_o he_o shall_v be_v punish_v for_o his_o sin_n in_o
