A holy and pure Communion and free∣dom being maintained in a Spiritual way betwixt the Spirit of the Bridegroom, and the Spirit that is preparing to be the Bride of the Lamb; thus it was manifest∣ed by this similitude, presenting before my in-seeing Eye, a Golden Charger, and in it somewhat of a Spirit of an extracted Virtual Matter, upon which fell a spark∣ling Star, as from the Invisible Orb, and
caused the Liquor in the Charger to flame up. And I heard presently the Word say, Come my Spouse, and draw near, for here is provided Heavenly Chear. Be∣hold the Lord, the Spirit is presented here in a Lordly dish, wherein the true Body of your Jesus is both tastable and discernible. Whosoever of this are able to drink in, it will make them Spirits, as all burning Flames. Upon which great things were further opened in the Magia Line. Which, could I have but totally acquitted, all those motions that concur to sense-awakening, I might have given an account of an infinite space, into which my Spirit was launching, but was driven back by some stirring Essence, that would not let my Spirit pass naked, and pure in. But this Word came, tho thou canst not pass now, yet thou shalt, after thou hast eaten of this Lordly dish. Which will turn Nature into Spirit; then thou may into the secret ranges of all eternal heights and depths as an Eagle flye, and see, and know what lies beyond the Starry Sky.
