(4.) From an Abode in the Palace of Heaven. Revel. 22.15. Without shall be Dogs and Sorcerers, and Whoremongers, and Murderers, and Idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a Lie. If the Pavement of Heaven is glorious, what will the Place it self be? And from this glorious Place they are banished.
