even_o in_o those_o time_n now_o and_o then_o a_o prophet_n will_v out_o with_o some_o admirable_a expression_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o this_o be_v but_o as_o the_o break_n forth_o of_o light_n in_o a_o dark_a night_n sometime_o again_o the_o gospel_n be_v present_v in_o a_o prophetical_a habit_n and_o so_o it_o be_v hold_v out_o as_o it_o be_v at_o a_o remote_a distance_n that_o even_o a_o

the_o prophet_n sometime_o also_o the_o gospel_n be_v present_v under_o a_o parabolicall_a habit_n and_o thus_o it_o please_v our_o saviour_n to_o exhibit_v it_o in_o his_o time_n delight_v much_o to_o see_v it_o in_o this_o dress_n in_o so_o much_o that_o all_o the_o gospel_n he_o speak_v almost_o be_v clothe_v in_o that_o habit_n and_o so_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v liken_v unto_o

of_o comparison_n to_o illustrate_v it_o final_o the_o gospel_n be_v present_v sometime_o without_o either_o vail_n or_o mask_n over_o it_o in_o its_o own_o proper_a beauty_n shine_v forth_o from_o the_o face_n of_o it_o nothing_o at_o all_o hinder_v the_o prospect_n of_o it_o in_o its_o own_o proportion_n and_o thus_o be_v the_o gospel_n present_v unto_o the_o disciple_n when_o they_o say_v unto_o christ_n now_o thou_o speak_v unto_o we_o plain_o and_o not_o by_o parable_n unto_o we_o that_o live_v now_o at_o this_o present_a the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n be_v represent_v in_o all_o
