But "Regard" (scope of true, continuing, divine Sight, Insight, All-comprehending sight) seems more likely to be the true rendering. "Long and broad" go strangely with the word, but on p. 113 the _length and breadth_ of the garments is interpreted immediately after the colour of the eyes, and is said to betoken that "He hath in Him, all Heavens, and all Joy and Bliss," and indeed these words but fill out the idea of the more frequently used "high" to signify the "enclosing" of "endless heavens:" that Sphere of "fulness" which is infinite. With this passage may be compared one below, on p. 113: "The Merciful Beholding of His loving Cheer fulfilled all earth and descended down with Adam into hell, ... and thus Mercy and Pity dwelleth with mankind unto the time we come up into Heaven." The other, the Inward, the _high_ Beholding or Regard it not said to "fill" Heaven, but to be "full of" endless Heavens. So elsewhere it is said that in our _Sense-soul_, the lower part of human nature, _God dwells_, but that our _Substance_, the higher part, _dwells in God_. (The regard of Mercy and Pity is with the Sense-soul; the high Regard of Joy and Bliss is with the Substance.) P. 132, chap. lv.: "I saw that our Substance is in God, and also I saw that in our Sense-soul God is." lvi. p. 135:" The worshipful City that our Lord Jesus sitteth in, it is our Sense-part, in which He is enclosed; and our Nature-Substance is beclosed in Jesus, with the blessed Soul of Christ sitting in rest in the Godhead." [8] "lofly cher." [9] "I reson sothly we owen." [10] See p. 112, the "high reward." [11] "which wer disposed to travel." [12] "even fornempts" = strait opposite. [13] _i.e._ equal (MS. "even like"). [14] S. de Cressy: "anaved"; MS. "anew." [15] _i.e._ equal--see p. 114. "All of the Charity of God," the mutual love that also embraces created souls, p. 118. [16] "the slade." [17] "the slade." [18] "mischief." [19] "wilfully" = voluntarily, of His own Will as God. [20] purpose, intent, thought or speech. [21] "langor." [22] _i.e._ painful toil. "He sitteth ... in peace and rest. And the Godhead ruleth and careth for heaven and earth and all that is" (lxvii.). [23] "honest." [24] "wilfully." [25] "wyde and syde" = wide and long. [26] But see also xxxix. p. 81, lxxx. p. 194. CHAPTER LII "We have now matter of mourning: for our sin is cause of Christ's pains; and we have, lastingly, matter of joy: for endless love made Him to suffer" And thus I saw that God rejoiceth that He is our Father, and God rejoiceth that He is our Mother, and God rejoiceth that He is Very Spouse and our soul is His loved Wife. And Christ rejoiceth that He is our Brother, and Jesus rejoiceth that He is our Saviour. These are five high joys, as I understand, in which He willeth that we enjoy; Him praising, Him thanking, Him loving, Him endlessly blessing.
