; already rifen from Sleep, and with chearful Words the thus received him : I KNOW whither thou wenteft with the Angel, and from whence thou art returned; for God is alfo with us while we fleep, and can communicate Knowledge in Dreams, which he hath to me, propitiously prefaging fome great Good, fince I fell asleep, wearied with Sorrow and Distress of Heart; but now I am chear'd; lead on! I shall not desire to make any Delay; to go with thee, makes it as happy as to stay here; to ftay here without thee, as unhappy as to go hence unwillingly: Thou art all Things under Heaven to me, and canft make all Places alike to me; who art banished hence, on Account of my wilful Tranf greffion. Yet this farther Confolation I carry with me, that though all is loft by me, fuch Favour is vouchfafed me, unworthy as I am! that by me the promised Seed shall restore all.

High advanced in the Front, blazed before them the flaming Sword of GOD, as fierce as a Comet; which with fultry Heat and Vapours began to parch that tempe. rate Climate: At which the Angel, in either Hand, took our lingring Parents, and led them directly to the Eastern Gate; and then, as faft down the Cliff, to the Plain beneath; after which he immediately difappeared from them. They, looking back, beheld all the Eaftern Side of PARADISE, which had been their happy Seat fo lately, and faw the flaming Sword waving over it; the Gate crouded with Angels dread fully fully armed with Fire, and forbidding Entrance.
