This Glass lively represents to us our selves, and our Saviour. Our selves wicked and wretched, damnatos priusquàm natos, condemned before we were borne: sinful, sorrowful: cast down by our own fault, but never restore-able by our own strength: without grace, without Christ, without hope, without God in the world. Our Saviour descending from 1heaven to suffer for us; ascending to heaven to provide for us: discharging us from hell by his sufferings, and interessing us to heaven by his righteousness. Oh look in this blessed Glass, and Behold the Lamb of God taking away the sin of the 2world. Look in it again, and behold all the spots and blemishes in your own consciences: as you would discover to your eye any blot on your face, by beholding it reflected in a material glass. See, contemplate, admire, meditate your own misery, and your Saviours mercy, in this Glass presented.
This Glasse liuely represents to vs our selues, and our Sauiour. Our selues wicked and wretched, damnatos priusquàm natos, condemned before we were borne: sinfull, sorrowfull: cast downe by our owne fault, but neuer restore-able by our owne strength: without grace, without Christ, without hope, without God in the world. Our Sauiour descending from 1heauen to suffer for vs; ascending to heauen to prouide for vs: discharging vs from hell by his sufferings, and interessing vs to heauen by his righteousnesse. Oh looke in this blessed Glasse, and Behold the Lambe of God taking away the sinne of the 2world. Looke in it againe, and behold all the spots and blemishes in your owne consciences: as you would discouer to your eye any blot on your face, by beholding it reflected in a materiall glasse. See, contemplate, admire, meditate your owne misery, and your Sauiours mercy, in this Glasse presented.
