when

how can

Therefore

for

the

anfwer

to

I

doe

verily

think

that

this

is

a

true anf1er

to

it,

that this that

is

tranflated

Thofe

And he

began

to

Now to determine

in what

way,

how

or when

the

Lord

will

this it

is

very hard to

doe,

you

know

the

fulfilling

of prorhefies

is

the

bell

interpretation of

them, but to

me

it

feemes

to

be very clear that

the

,Scripture

Both_

hold

forth

this

that

iris

parr

of the

kingdome

of Jefus

Chrìfl that

he will bring

his

people

in

time

to

enjoy,

whatfo-

ever

good

things

there

are

to

be enjoyed

here,

for

the reward

ofGod

flands

in

a

fpirituall

way,

not

in

a

fenítrall

way as

fóme

have

dream'd

of,

but

in

a

fpirituall

and holy way

;

And this

is

the bleffng

of

thole that

are poor

in

re'pecf

of

their outward

eftates,

and have

fpirits futable.

Now there

are

many

that

are

troubled

in

refpe61

of

the

tneanparts that

they have,

yet

they

having fpirits futable

to

their

mean

parts andwilling to

honour

Cod

in

them, theirs

is

the

kingdome of Heaven allo

But

now

I

will for

the

pre-

fentleave therh,

and

ft:eake

to

the

third,

and-that

is

thofe

that

are poor

in grace.

As

Firíl,

Thou hail

but

a

little

grace,

and

arc

very poor

and

mean,

and this troubles

thee,

yet

bleed

art

thou
