joy_n 23._o where_o then_o shall_v the_o father_n else_o place_v they_o but_o before_o the_o gate_n of_o his_o heart_n do_v not_o all_o joy_n of_o man_n which_o be_v in_o the_o whole_a man_n arise_v from_o the_o fountain_n of_o the_o heart_n so_o in_o god_n also_o then_o there_o arise_v the_o gyeat_a joy_n out_o of_o the_o fountain_n of_o his_o heart_n 24._o and_o therefore_o have_v he_o create_v the_o holy_a angel_n out_o of_o himself_o which_o be_v as_o it_o be_v little_a god_n answerable_a to_o the_o be_v and_o quality_n of_o the_o whole_a god_n that_o in_o the_o power_n shall_v act_n

the_o son_n of_o god_n or_o heart_n of_o god_n which_o be_v the_o light_n or_o source_n and_o fountain_n of_o joy_n take_v up_o his_o fair_a and_o most_o joyful_a original_n in_o the_o centre_n or_o midst_n of_o these_o kingdom_n and_o shine_v into_o and_o through_o all_o the_o angelical_a gate_n 26._o thou_o must_v understand_v this_o proper_o what_o the_o meaning_n of_o it_o be_v for_o when_o i_o speak_v by_o way_n of_o similitude_n and_o liken_v the_o son_n of_o god_n to_o the_o sun_n or_o to_o a_o round_a globe_n it_o have_v not_o that_o meaning_n as_o if_o he_o be_v a_o circumscriptive_a fountain_n which_o can_v be_v measure_v or_o who_o depth_n beginning_n or_o end_n can_v be_v fathom_v i_o write_v so_o only_o by_o way_n of_o similitude_n till_o the_o reader_n may_v come_v to_o the_o true_a understanding_n 27._o for_o the_o meaning_n be_v not_o here_o that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v generate_v only_o in_o the_o centre_n or_o midst_n of_o these_o angelical_a gate_n and_o no_o where_o else_o without_o beyond_o or_o beside_o these_o angelical_a gate_n 28._o for_o the_o power_n of_o the_o father_n be_v every_o where_o from_o and_o out_o of_o which_o the_o son_n be_v generate_v and_o from_o which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n go_v forth_o how_o shall_v he_o then_o be_v generate_v only_o in_o the_o centre_n of_o these_o angelical_a gate_n 29._o this_o therefore_o be_v the_o only_o gronnd_a and_o meaning_n that_o the_o holy_a father_n who_o be_v all_o will_v have_v in_o these_o angelical_a *_o gate_n his_o most_o joyful_a and_o most_o rich_o love_v quality_n out_o of_o which_o the_o most_o joyful_a and_o most_o rich_o love_v light_n word_n heart_n or_o fountain_n of_o power_n be_v generate_v and_o therefore_o have_v create_v his_o holy_a angel_n in_o this_o place_n for_o his_o joy_n honour_n and_o glory_n 30._o in_o the_o abyssal_n or_o bottomless_a eternity_n indeed_o it_o be_v in_o one_o place_n as_o well_o as_o in_o another_o but_o where_o there_o be_v no_o creature_n it_o can_v be_v know_v but_o by_o the_o spirit_n in_o its_o wonder_n 31._o and_o this_o be_v the_o select_a place_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n which_o god_n the_o father_n in_o himself_o have_v make_v choice_n of_o wherein_o his_o holy_a word_n or_o heart_n be_v generate_v in_o high_a glory_n clarity_n or_o brightness_n power_n and_o triumph_v joy_n 32._o for_o observe_v this_o mystery_n the_o light_n which_o be_v generate_v out_o of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o father_n which_o be_v the_o true_a fountain_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v generate_v also_o in_o a_o angel_n and_o a_o holy_a man_n so_o that_o in_o the_o same_o light_n and_o knowledge_n he_o triumph_v in_o great_a joy_n 33._o how_o then_o be_v it_o that_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v generate_v every_o where_o in_o the_o whole_a father_n for_o his_o power_n be_v all_o and_o every_o where_o even_o there_o where_o our_o heart_n and_o sense_n or_o thought_n can_v reach_v 34._o and_o so_o now_o where_o the_o father_n be_v there_o be_v also_o the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o the_o father_n every_o where_o generate_v the_o son_n his_o holy_a word_n power_n light_n and_o

angelical_a gate_n also_o 35._o now_o if_o a_o man_n liken_v the_o son_n of_o god_n to_o the_o globe_n of_o the_o sun_n as_o i_o have_v often_o do_v in_o the_o forego_n chapter_n that_o be_v speak_v in_o the_o way_n and_o manner_n of_o natural_a similitude_n and_o i_o be_v constrain_v to_o write_v so_o because_o of_o the_o misunderstanding_n of_o the_o reader_n that_o so_o he_o may_v raise_v his_o sense_n or_o thought_n in_o these_o natural_a thing_n and_o climb_v from_o step_n to_o step_v from_o one_o degree_n to_o another_o till_o he_o may_v come_v into_o the_o high_a mystery_n 36._o but_o it_o have_v not_o this_o meaning_n that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v a_o circumscribe_v compact_v figure_v image_n like_o the_o sun_n 37._o for_o if_o it_o be_v so_o then_o must_v the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v a_o beginning_n and_o the_o father_n must_v have_v generate_v he_o at_o once_o and_o then_o he_o can_v not_o be_v the_o eternal_a almighty_a son_n of_o the_o father_n but_o be_v like_o a_o king_n who_o have_v yet_o a_o great_a king_n above_o he_o who_o have_v generate_v he_o in_o time_n and_o in_o who_o power_n it_o be_v to_o alter_v and_o to_o change_v he_o 38._o this_o be_v such_o a_o son_n as_o have_v a_o beginning_n and_o his_o power_n and_o splendour_n be_v like_o the_o power_n of_o the_o sun_n which_o go_v forth_o from_o the_o sun_n the_o body_n or_o globe_n of_o the_o sun_n stand_v still_o in_o its_o place_n and_o if_o this_o be_v so_o then_o indeed_o one_o angelical_a part._n gate_n will_v be_v near_o to_o the_o son_n of_o god_n than_o another_o 39_o but_o here_o i_o will_v show_v to_o thou_o the_o high_a gate_n of_o the_o divine_a mystery_n and_o thou_o need_v seek_v no_o high_a for_o there_o be_v no_o high_o observe_v 40._o the_o father_n power_n be_v all_o in_o and_o above_o all_o heaven_n and_o the_o same_o power_n every_o where_o generate_v the_o light_n now_o this_o all-power_n be_v and_o be_v call_v the_o all-power_n of_o the_o father_n and_o the_o light_n which_o be_v generate_v out_o of_o that_o all-power_n be_v and_o be_v call_v the_o son_n 41._o but_o it_o be_v therefore_o call_v the_o son_n in_o that_o it_o be_v generate_v out_o of_o the_o father_n so_o that_o it_o be_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o father_n in_o his_o power_n 42._o and_o be_v generate_v so_o it_o be_v another_o person_n than_o the_o father_n be_v for_o the_o father_n be_v the_o power_n and_o kingdom_n and_o the_o son_n be_v the_o light_n and_o splendour_n in_o the_o father_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v the_o move_a or_o exit_z out_o of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o father_n and_o of_o the_o son_n and_o form_v figure_v frame_v and_o image_v all_o 43._o as_o the_o air_n go_v forth_o from_o the_o power_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o star_n and_o move_v in_o this_o

than_o the_o three_o person_n will_v only_o be_v in_o that_o place_n where_o the_o son_n be_v and_o his_o splendour_n or_o shine_v will_v be_v without_o or_o beyond_o he_o and_o as_o go_v forth_o from_o the_o son_n and_o the_o father_n will_v be_v one_o only_o external_o without_o or_o beside_o the_o son_n and_o then_o the_o power_n of_o the_o father_n which_o will_v be_v afar_o off_o and_o wide_a distant_a from_o the_o son_n will_v not_o generate_v the_o son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n external_o without_o and_o beyond_o the_o angelical_a gate_n and_o so_o there_o will_v be_v a_o
