thing_n be_v strange_a so_o most_o strange_a be_v it_o that_o the_o tomb_n and_o the_o entomb_v carcase_n be_v one_o and_o that_o inseparable_o also_o upon_o the_o tomb_n i_o find_v write_v a_o

up_o as_o on_o a_o bottom_n and_o say_v make_v this_o fast_o to_o a_o pin_n of_o this_o tower_n and_o then_o go_v round_o and_o behold_v the_o place_n it_o may_v shorten_v the_o time_n to_o you_o

i_o pass_v along_o and_o be_v no_o soon_o out_o of_o that_o place_n but_o a_o very_a thick_a misty_a darkness_n apprehend_v i_o so_o thick_a that_o i_o may_v fell_v it_o and_o though_o my_o head_n

darkness_n be_v such_o that_o it_o will_v not_o receive_v the_o light_n for_o they_o be_v not_o homogenial_a but_o be_v a_o little_a disjoined_n by_o the_o ray_n of_o the_o light_n and_o as_o it_o be_v here_o and_o there_o condense_v into_o strange_a figure_n as_o of_o bird_n beast_n and_o creep_a thing_n of_o monstrous_a shape_n and_o by_o reason_n of_o this_o opposition_n the_o ray_n of_o the_o light_n extend_v but_o a_o little_a way_n and_o the_o light_n most_o clear_a do_v shoot_v as_o it_o be_v in_o beam_n and_o the_o darkness_n stand_v as_o it_o be_v in_o cluster_n by_o itself_o there_o be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o multitude_n of_o man_n who_o see_v my_o light_n in_o my_o hand_n which_o they_o can_v not_o discern_v well_o they_o be_v in_o that_o dark_a which_o will_v not_o be_v

so_o tender_a that_o my_o candle_n overpoured_n they_o and_o they_o can_v not_o bear_v its_o lustre_n therefore_o they_o cry_v out_o run_v away_o i_o muse_v much_o at_o this_o how_o they_o can_v be_v

once_o there_o be_v light_n in_o the_o world_n and_o the_o darkness_n comprehend_v it_o not_o and_o that_o darkness_n have_v a_o false_a fire_n light_n of_o its_o own_o with_o which_o it_o seem_v to_o

and_o when_o i_o awake_v methinks_v it_o be_v no_o more_o darkness_n but_o daylight_n about_o i_o i_o wonder_v at_o the_o very_a strange_a change_n and_o still_o feel_v for_o my_o thread_n which_o by_o that_o light_n i_o can_v not_o see_v but_o only_o feel_v it_o i_o begin_v to_o look_v about_o i_o to_o see_v where_o i_o be_v and_o behold_v i_o be_v in_o a_o ruinous_a place_n of_o many_o

on_o the_o book_n but_o can_v not_o distinguish_v any_o word_n in_o it_o which_o make_v i_o wonder_n then_o i_o think_v with_o myself_o that_o as_o that_o light_n have_v a_o peculiar_a difference_n from_o that_o light_n which_o i_o see_v about_o the_o tower_n where_o i_o be_v before_o so_o it_o may_v have_v its_o peculiar_a object_n this_o opinion_n i_o have_v confirm_v by_o this_o for_o that_o

well_o to_o be_v those_o place_n in_o which_o the_o truth_n be_v couch_v in_o few_o word_n then_o i_o return_v by_o my_o thread_n to_o my_o candle_n and_o straight_o my_o head_n return_v to_o its_o

time_n that_o i_o have_v be_v there_o i_o find_v my_o eye_n be_v beginning_n to_o grow_v tender_a and_o smart_v and_o itch_v at_o the_o first_o glimpse_n of_o this_o true_a light_n which_o then_o in_o comparison_n of_o the_o light_n i_o have_v before_o see_v do_v not_o seem_v bare_o light_a but_o the_o super-coelestial_a light_n of_o paradise_n then_o i_o demand_v of_o she_o with_o who_o in_o the_o glass_n i_o have_v former_a converse_n concern_v what_o i_o have_v see_v she_o tell_v i_o that_o they_o be_v such_o who_o write_v in_o alchemy_n according_a to_o the_o light_n of_o fancy_n and_o not_o of_o nature_n

though_o to_o they_o their_o light_n seem_v clear_a enough_o yet_o can_v they_o see_v nothing_o by_o it_o but_o what_o be_v fantastical_a and_o mystical_o or_o sophistical_o write_v by_o the_o

where_o their_o imaginary_a light_n only_o shine_v such_o as_o be_v fox-fire_n and_o glow-worm_n tail_n that_o shine_v only_o in_o the_o dark_a this_o light_n make_v their_o eye_n so_o tender_a that_o the_o lamp_n of_o nature_n make_v they_o fly_v moreover_o whatever_o be_v write_v according_a to_o this_o light_n they_o can_v see_v nay_o they_o can_v endure_v the_o light_n of_o the_o true_a luna_n of_o the_o wise_a man_n for_o any_o true_a light_n discover_v their_o darkness_n and_o yet_o their_o darkness_n be_v uncapable_a of_o apprehend_v the_o light_n now_o in_o that_o you_o go_v in_o among_o they_o without_o your_o candle_n it_o be_v a_o bold_a adventure_n for_o have_v you_o lose_v your_o thread_n you_o can_v never_o have_v return_v then_o i_o look_v into_o my_o tower_n and_o do_v as_o i_o be_v direct_v and_o again_o i_o go_v to_o view_v those_o part_n of_o cimmerian_a darkness_n once_o more_o yet_o with_o my_o candle_n in_o my_o hand_n and_o my_o thread_n at_o my_o girdle_n when_o i_o come_v the_o second_o time_n at_o the_o sight_n of_o this_o light_n all_o flee_v so_o that_o i_o can_v not_o meet_v with_o any_o but_o i_o enter_v into_o several_a turn_n which_o i_o see_v
