1. It is Love that desireth after God, and his Grace and Glory. 2. It is Love that hopeth for him. 3. It is Love that rejoiceth in him, and is pleased when we and others please him, and when his Love is poured out on the Sons of men, and Truth, Peace and Holiness prosper in the World. 4. It is Love that maketh us sorrowful that we can please him no more, nor more enjoy him; and that maketh us grieved that we can no more know him, love him, and delight in him; and that we have so much sin within us to displease him, and hinder our communion of Love with him. 5. And Love will make us fearful of displeasing him, and losing the said Communion of Love. 6. And it will make us most angry with our selves when we have most by sin displeased God, and angry with others that offend him.k
