So that à quo dominatio, ab •o denominatio, our name is given us, according to her name that cherisheth, and is Mother unto us. Hence every believing soul is a daughter of Jerusalem, and a spouse of Christ. Anima credentis est sponsaredimentis. The soul of him that believes, is the spouse of him that saves. As a multitude is but a heap of unites; so the Church is a congregation of Saints. And as that which belongs to the body, belongs to every member: so the privileges of our mother Jerusalem, are the prerogatives of all her children: not only the daughter of Zion her self, but every daughter of hers, every faithful soul, 'is a pure virgin, and so to be presented to Jesus Christ. As Paul to his particular Church of Corinthl: I am jealous over you with a godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. Mans soul is of an excellent nature, and like a beautious damsel hath many Suitors.
