Or, in the Sky; for the word here used (as hath been showed before) signifies the Sky, the Firmament, and sometimes the Air, as well as the Clouds,1 and it imports the natural thinness of those Celestial Bodies, in that higher and upper Region of the World. Men see not the bright light which is in the Clouds. Light is properly in the Sun; the Sun is the vessel, the vehicle, the seat, the chariot of Light; but as Light is in the Sun subjectively, so Light is in the Clouds objectively, and also as they are a Medium through which the Light is conveyed and passeth to us. Yet sometimes men see not that bright Light which is in the Clouds, for Clouds being very thick or thickened, they become to us as an opacous Body, through which the Light can neither find nor make its way, and then there's no beholding the Light of the Sun shining upon them in its greatest brightness; while the Air is thus Clouded, Men see not the bright Light which is in the Clouds.
Or, in the Skie; for the word here used (as hath been shewed before) signifies the Skie, the Firmament, and somtimes the Air, as well as the Clouds,1 and it imports the natural thinness of those Coelestial Bodies, in that higher and upper Region of the World. Men see not the bright light which is in the Clouds. Light is properly in the Sun; the Sun is the vessel, the vehicle, the seat, the chariot of Light; but as Light is in the Sun subjectively, so Light is in the Clouds objectively, and also as they are a Medium through which the Light is conveighed and passeth to us. Yet somtimes men see not that bright Light which is in the Clouds, for Clouds being very thick or thickened, they become to us as an opacous Body, through which the Light can neither find nor make its way, and then there's no beholding the Light of the Sun shining upon them in its greatest brightness; while the Air is thus Clouded, Men see not the bright Light which is in the Clouds.
