2. IT was represented in the Mystical Account which is given us of his Communion with his Church in Love and Grace. As this is intimated in many places of Scripture; so there is one entire Book designed unto its Declaration. This is the Divine Song of Solomon who was a Type of Christ, and a Penman of the Holy Ghost therein. A Gracious Record it is of the Divine Communications of Christ in Love and Grace unto his Church, with their returns of love unto him, and delight in him. And then may a man judge himself to have somewhat profited in the experience of the Mystery of a blessed intercourse and communion with Christ, when the expressions of them in that holy Dialogue, do give Light and Life unto his mind, and efficaciously communicate unto him an experience of their power. But because these things are little understood by many, the book it self is much neglected if not despised. Yea to such impudence have some arrived, in foaming out their own shame, as that they have ridiculed the expressions of it; but we are foretold of such mockers in the last days, that should walk after their own ungodly lusts; they are not of our present consideration.
