heaven_n it_o be_v with_o a_o great_a purchase_n it_o be_v with_o the_o purchase_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o be_v more_o worth_a than_o all_o the_o world_n and_o if_o the_o son_n

say_v what_o be_v this_o conversation_n that_o be_v in_o heaven_n that_o be_v here_o speak_v of_o i_o shall_v open_v it_o in_o these_o particular_n the_o first_o be_v the_o aim_n and_o scope_n of_o their_o heart_n it_o be_v heaven-ward_n that_o the_o saint_n look_v at_o as_o their_o aim_n and_o scope_n be_v heaven_n they_o look_v upon_o themselves_o in_o this_o world_n as_o pilgrim_n and_o

their_o conversation_n be_v in_o heaven_n for_o they_o be_v act_v by_o heavenly_a principle_n in_o all_o their_o way_n heavenly_a principle_n you_o will_v say_v what_o be_v they_o this_o be_v a_o heavenly_a principle_n that_o god_n be_v all_o in_o all_o that_o be_v a_o principle_n that_o the_o saint_n be_v guide_v by_o in_o heaven_n they_o look_v upon_o god_n to_o be_v all_o in_o all_o unto_o they_o so_o do_v the_o saint_n here_o in_o what_o they_o do_v in_o what_o they_o be_v in_o what_o they_o enjoy_v they_o act_n upon_o this_o principle_n that_o its_o god_n that_o be_v all_o in_o all_o whatsoever_o i_o see_v in_o the_o creature_n yet_o it_o be_v god_n that_o be_v all_o in_o all_o to_o i_o i_o act_n by_o virtue_n of_o this_o principle_n that_o god_n the_o infinite_a first-being_a

upon_o he_o as_o infinite_o worthy_a of_o all_o love_n and_o service_n for_o himself_o know_v this_o be_v a_o heavenly_a principle_n so_o the_o saint_n their_o conversation_n be_v in_o heaven_n they_o be_v act_v by_o heavenly_a principle_n i_o look_v upon_o such_o and_o such_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n whereby_o i_o may_v go_v in_o credit_n increase_n or_o comfort_n this_o be_v a_o earthly_a

thereis_n communion_n with_o the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n now_o what_o make_v heaven_n but_o god_n we_o say_v where_o the_o king_n be_v there_o be_v the_o court_n where_o god_n be_v there_o be_v heaven_n let_v god_n be_v where_o he_o will_n there_o be_v some_o controversy_n among_o some_o where_o the_o saint_n shall_v be_v after_o the_o resurrection_n some_o think_v it_o shall_v
