As the morning.] 1. The morning springs out of the greatest darkness; the night is most dark, as they say, a little before day: the illuminated soul arises out of the most darksome and damned grave of ignorance and sin. 2. The beauty of the morning is principally seen in her *ruddiness: The soul that is newly delivered out of the horror of Egyptian darkness, and hands of the hellish Pharaoh, is all ruddy with passing through the red Sea of Christs blood; that is the ground upon which all its beauty and blessedness is built. 2. The glory of the morning after its first peeping in the East, spreads fairer and fairer in all beauty and brightness, until the mid-day, and full illustration of the World: Grace in the soul, after the first plantation, grows stronger and stronger, shines fairer and fairer, until it set in the bottomless Ocean of endless Glory. See Prou. 4. 18.
