that_o god_n create_v the_o light_n before_o the_o sun_n for_o god_n have_v create_v the_o element_n in_o their_o natural_a purity_n they_o be_v sometime_o in_o that_o state_n before_o mixture_n the_o

ever_o approach_v near_o it_o the_o other_o element_n will_v do_v so_o too_o if_o they_o can_v preserve_v themselves_o in_o their_o purity_n as_o well_o as_o the_o fire_n but_o because_o they_o will_v

their_o aliment_n and_o several_a use_n hence_o their_o light_n become_v change_v into_o colour_n which_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o light_n extinguish_v more_o or_o less_o and_o according_o we_o

our_o eye_n perceive_v not_o as_o our_o ear_n discern_v or_o perceive_v not_o silence_n but_o only_o by_o not_o hear_v any_o sound_n so_o neither_o do_v the_o sight_n behold_v black_a and_o darkness_n but_o when_o it_o see_v neither_o colour_n nor_o light_n so_o that_o to_o hear_v silence_n and_o see_v darkness_n be_v to_o speak_v proper_o a_o vain_a attempt_n of_o the_o soul_n which_o will_v

she_o into_o great_a dejection_n and_o this_o make_v way_n for_o the_o second_o reason_n why_o the_o soul_n become_v sad_a at_o the_o sight_n of_o a_o black_a colour_n namely_o because_o it_o never_o

the_o quality_n which_o produce_v it_o and_o be_v contrary_a to_o life_n which_o she_o love_v hence_o arise_v sadness_n and_o hence_o also_o it_o be_v that_o we_o natural_o love_v a_o countenance_n
