1 The happy estate of the spouse reunited again unto her Bridegroom declared by the similitude of a feast or banquet, figured by the Levitical sacrifices both in the tabernacle, and after in the temple of Solomon. 2 The round table declareth that this feast is referred unto the Bridegrooms coming in person with whom the people of all the round world shall sit down, although the full celebration of this banquet be reserved unto the later day. 3 In what place of the world this banquet is kept. 4 With what meat it is furnished, by whom, and how. 5 The excellency of the Evangelical banquet above the Levitical. 6 Whence the allegory of the odour of the spouses spike-nard is taken. 7 It is not enough to enter into the banquet or to sit down, but we must cause our odour to smell thereat. 8 Why there is no mention made here of eating or drinking in this banquet. 9 What the odour or smell of this spike-nard is. 10 Application of this allegory to the present time. 11 Satan's assaulting us in this point on the left hand. 12 His assaulting of us on the right hand against merit-mongers. 13 What this true spike-nard is, and his true smell. 14 The Myrrh and the Copher of the Bridegroom maketh the spike-nard of the spouse to smell sweet. 15 Whence this blessing cometh, and to whom it appertaineth.
