Now with these we must dwell, and co-habit, a Palm-Tree and a Cherub; a Palm-Tree and a Cherub, must be from the ground, to above the door, round about the house; the Heavens.
So that the Face of a Man was toward the Palm-Tree on the one side, and the Face of a young Lyon toward the Palm-Tree on the other side.
By these two Faces may be also showed, that we in the Heavens shall have Glory sufficient to Familiarize us to the Angels.

Then Angels and Men shall be Fellows, and have to do with each as such.
