Ephesians5:8

Verſe 8. For ye were ſometimes darkneſſe] Which hath in it (as one well noteth.) 1. Errour. 2. Terrour. 3. [illegible: 2 letters]. Dugard in loc. Inconſiſtency with light. 4. Impoſſibility of reducing it ſelf to light.

But now are ye light] Semper in ſole ſita eſt Rhodos, ſaith Sylvius. The Saints are alwaies in the Sunſhine.

Walk as children of light] A godly man ſhould be like a cryſtall glaſſe with a light in the midſt, which appeareth thorow every part thereof. He is in the light, and ſhall be more.
