christian_n especial_o of_o the_o oriental_n it_o be_v far_a to_o be_v observe_v that_o they_o acknowledge_v a_o kind_n of_o purgatory_n for_o they_o hold_v that_o they_o who_o die_v in_o the_o

these_o shall_v suffer_v in_o hell_n in_o proportion_n to_o their_o sin_n and_o that_o afterward_o they_o shall_v go_v into_o paradise_n and_o much_o after_o the_o same_o manner_n the_o eastern_a church_n acknowledge_v also_o a_o purgatory_n without_o admit_v any_o other_o place_n beside_o hell_n beside_o that_o general_a judgement_n wherein_o the_o mahometan_n believe_v that_o god_n himself_o in_o person_n shall_v make_v all_o man_n give_v account_n of_o their_o action_n they_o acknowledge_v also_o a_o particular_a judgement_n which_o they_o call_v the_o torment_n of_o the_o grave_a and_o that_o judgement_n in_o their_o opinion_n be_v perform_v in_o this_o manner_n so_o soon_o as_o any_o one_o be_v dead_a and_o bury_v two_o of_o the_o great_a angel_n of_o which_o the_o one_o be_v call_v munzir_fw-it and_o the_o other_o nekir_n come_v and_o interrogate_v the_o dead_a person_n ask_v what_o belief_n he_o have_v concern_v god_n and_o the_o prophet_n and_o concern_v the_o law_n and_o the_o kiblé_fw-fr that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o what_o side_n one_o be_v to_o turn_v in_o pray_v to_o god_n the_o just_a be_v then_o to_o answer_v our_o god_n be_v he_o that_o have_v create_v

what_o to_o answer_v be_v condemn_v to_o suffer_v great_a pain_n in_o the_o general_n resurrection_n they_o pretend_v that_o those_o who_o be_v destine_v for_o paradise_n shall_v before_o they_o enter_v into_o it_o drink_v of_o the_o water_n of_o certain_a fountain_n appoint_v for_o that_o purpose_n and_o that_o every_o prophet_n shall_v have_v his_o fountain_n or_o particular_a source_n where_o he_o and_o his_o follower_n shall_v drink_v the_o fountain_n where_o mahomet_n and_o all_o of_o his_o sect_n be_v to_o drink_v shall_v be_v much_o large_a than_o that_o of_o all_o other_o

more_o laver_n than_o there_o be_v star_n in_o the_o firmament_n and_o its_o water_n shall_v be_v sweet_a than_o honey_n and_o white_a than_o milk_n they_o who_o once_o drink_v of_o it_o shall_v never_o thirst_v again_o it_o be_v very_o probable_a that_o all_o these_o thing_n be_v rather_o parable_n than_o true_a relation_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v not_o always_o to_o take_v literal_o what_o we_o find_v in_o the_o book_n of_o mahometan_a doctor_n and_o other_o oriental_n in_o which_o sense_n we_o ought_v to_o understand_v a_o great_a part_n of_o that_o which_o they_o say_v of_o paradise_n and_o hell_n for_o instance_n in_o the_o description_n they_o make_v of_o paradise_n they_o affirm_v that_o it_o be_v all_o full_a of_o musk_n that_o its_o building_n be_v of_o brick_n of_o gold_n and_o silver_n that_o they_o who_o have_v once_o enter_v into_o it_o never_o come_v out_o again_o that_o their_o clothes_n never_o wear_v out_o that_o all_o sort_n of_o delicious_a meat_n be_v
