all_o their_o flight_n and_o rapture_n whether_o about_o god_n or_o the_o soul_n or_o virtue_n be_v owe_v either_o to_o the_o very_a doctrine_n or_o to_o the_o ancient_a cabala_n or_o tradition_n of_o the_o most_o primitive_a church_n of_o god_n or_o else_o to_o the_o eternal_a son_n that_o logos_fw-la or_o word_n of_o god_n who_o have_v in_o all_o age_n past_a endow_v every_o man_n with_o some_o
