The XIX. Chap.

[ A] NOw as the Mans Vnderstanding had whollie geeuen-ouer herself to Testi∣mony-of-trueth· and humblie submitted her to his Obedience: and walked also faithfullye in thesame Obedience: and that they therto in mutual-sort / honoured and thanked the God of Life / Then sawe I. and beholde: The whole Beeing of the Godhead / opened againe his whole Heart and Minde {reversed ;}which is full of Grace / Loue / Powers / and Life; in all respectes / a 1.1 with al∣maner Garnishing of Excellent-bewtie / eauen as I had seene thesame before. And God shewed himself ouer the Earth / and brought-fourth out of his Heart and Minde / the New Life / b 1.2 the Light of Perfection: and it is the Eight-daye / c 1.3 which the Lorde hath made· and declared on the Earth / to the Making-aliue of Men in his vpright Bee∣inge / and wherin men reioyce them with Gladnes.

2. After that I sawe. and beholde: Thissame Eight-daye appeered on the Earth / and gaue from God and out-of God / his Light and Cleernes on

the Earth. and the Vnderstandinge {reversed ;}d 1.4 which walked faithfullie / in all Loue / and in all Obe∣dience towarde Testimonye-of-trueth; became {reversed ;}through thesame Light of the New or Eight Daye; borne-anew out of the Death / or out of the Mortalitie·e 1.5 and chaunged into the euerlasting Immortalitie: and became euensof 1.6 made-aliue {reversed ;}with perfect Ioye of the holie Spirit of Loue; in the New Life / and sanctified vnto the Lorde.

3. THen did Vnderstandinge reioyce her [ B] with great Ioye: and that cheefliest / be∣cause the Middel-wallg 1.7 or the Coueringe of the sinfull Fleash / was so throughlie laide-away from her Heart· the Vaile departed from the Most-ho∣lie: and that shee {reversed ;}in all Loue of the holie Spirit; was so sanctified to the God of Heauen: and sawe-into the mostholie Beeinge of God / h 1.8 and all the Sumpteous-garnishing of the Riches of his spiri∣tuall & heauenlie Goods / so nakedlie & cleerlie / as also inherited all thesame / in God / in Christ, and in ye Holie-gost of Loue / with Testimony-of-trueth.

4. And euenso heer-with / became the sanctified Vnderstandinge so bright in Cleernes / eauen as was Testimony-of-trueth, and as all Heauens of the liuinge Deitie. Through which Cleernes / the sanctified Vnderstandinge behelde Testimo∣ny-of-trueth, and all the Heauens with the per∣fect Deitie / i 1.9 from Face to Face / and became of-one-beeinge with those-same.

5. THn saide Testimony-of-trueth to the [ C] Mans sanctified Vnderstanding: Be∣holde

/ Now vnderstandest thou {reversed ;}through y Light of the New Life; that Gods Light and Wisdom / and his heauenlie Riches {reversed ;}which are com vnto thee out of his liuing Beeinge;k 1.10 doth farre excell the Light and Wisdom that proceedeth out of the Ri∣ches of the Knowledge. and that thou before {reversed ;}the∣whylst thou soughtest the Wisdom / in the Know∣ledge / and in the ingenious Prudentie; inheritedst not els-what but greatl 1.11 Trauell / Heauynes / and the deadlie Beeinge: But now {reversed ;}in thissame Wis∣dom of God;m 1.12 the Rest and the euerlastinge Life.

6. Wherfore / O thou holie Vnderstandinge ؛thou Blessed of the Lorde{punctel} / in that thou {reversed ;}before this thy New-birth; hast beleeued Mee ؛Testi∣mony-of-trueth {punctel}·whollie geeuen-ouer thyself {reversed ;}o∣bedientlie; vnto my Doctrine or Requiringe· and ben obedient and faithfull / in the Passe-ouer of the Sufferinge and Death of Christ {reversed ;}eauen into the seconden 1.13 Birth from the Death; with Christ, So hath God therfore turned all his Loue toward thee.

7. Also thou shlt ascende with mee vnto Hea∣uen / and heare, beholde, and inherit with Ioye / all what is in Heauen. Also wee both are (like as I sayde before vnto thee) fore-seene and chosen to vp∣right Iudges / for to pronounce-fourth Gods righ∣teous Iudgment {reversed ;}in this hiso 1.14 Eight-daye; both in Heauen and also on Earth: and euenso with Righteousnes {reversed ;}vnder the Obedience of the Loue; to gouernep 1.15 the vniuersall Earth {reversed ;}with God and his Sainctes; in vpright-maner / To-thende that it all {reversed ;}both in Heauen and on Earth; may go in his

right Course / or be sett in his right Ordinaunce.

8. Heer-withall did the holie Vnderstanding / [ D] bow-downe herself before Testimony-of-trueth. and saide:q 1.16 All the Woorkes of the Lorde are vp∣right and good: and his Lawe and Iudgment is onlie true. Let him deale with mee / r 1.17 accordinge to his Will.

9. After-that I sawe. & beholde: The Mans sanctified Vnderstanding, Memory / or Though∣tes / with Testimony-of-trueth / assembled them to the Multitudes of the Heauens of God and Christ / in the heauenlie Beeinge:s 1.18 Wherin all the heauenlie Societie {reversed ;}with much Ioye; did greatlie reioyce them. And ther was made ouer all Hea∣uens and in all Heauens / a great Tryumph and Gladnes.

10. After-that I sawe. and beholde: Thissame holie Vnderstandinge, with Testimonye-of-trueth / were sett {reversed ;}of God and Prouidence;t 1.19 on the Iudgment-seates. and alowed and esteemed to be worthie / for to iudge it all both in Heauen and on Earth {reversed ;}through Gods Iudgmēt with his Ho∣lyones; v 1.20 with Right and Equitie.
