Job42:5

5. I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear, but now mine eye seeth thee .

The knowledge which I had of thy Divine nature, and perfections and counsels was hitherto dark, and doubtful, and conjectura[illegible: 1+ letters] being grounded chiefly, if not onely upon the instructions and reports of other men, but now it is clear and certain, as being immediately inspired into my mind by this thy glorious Apparition and Revelation, and by the Operation of thy Holy Spirit; which makes these things as certain and evident to me as if I saw them with my bodily Eyes.
