Chapter › Section 23: §. 23. Of the fit resemblance of the Sonne to a Character.
Modern spelling is a reading aid: the words are the author’s, only the spelling is modernized. Original shows the page as printed, with the transcription marks.
TO exemplify this latter resemblance of a Character, as we have done the former of brightness, in some particulars, take for instance the character or stamp that is on coin, and the engravement that is on the tool wherewith the character on the coin is made.
TO exemplifie this latter resemblance of a Character, as we have done the former of brightness, in some particulars, take for instance the character or stamp that is on coyn, and the engravement that is on the tool wherewith the character on the coyn is made.
1. The character cometh from the engravement on the tool. 2. The character is most like to that engravement. 3. Whatsoever is on the engravement is also on the character. 4. The engravement and the character are distinct each from the other.
All these were before set down in the former metaphor of lbrightness: but yet this of a character is not unnecessarily added: for by the vulgar sort it is better conceived; and it doth more sensibly set down the likeness and equality betwixt the Father and the Son, then that of brightness doth, which is the principal end of using these resemblances.
