In this Mountain, that is, in the Temple typically, saith the Prophet, shall the Lord of Hosts make unto all People a Feast of fat things, a feast of Wine on the Lees, of fat things full of marrow, of Wine on the Lees well refined; Isa. 25.6.
These are Feasting-times: The times in which our Lord used to have his Spouse ⟨p. 143⟩into his Wine-Cellar, and in which he used to display with delight his Banner over her Head in love; Song 2.5.
The Church of Christ, alas, is of her self a very sickly pulley thing, a Woman, a weaker Vessel, but how much more must she needs be so weak, when the custom of Women is upon her, or when she is sick of love. Then she indeed has need of a draught, for she now sinks, and will not else be supported; Stay me with Flagons, saith she, and comfort me with Apples, for I am sick of love, Song 2.4, 5.
