A heavenly Discourse between Christ and Mary after his Resurrection.
JOHN 20. 16. Jesus said unto her, Mary, she turned her self and said to him, Rabboni, that is to say, Master: And Jesus said to her, touch me not, for I am not yet ascended to my Father; but go to my Brethren, and say to them, I ascend to my Father, and your Father, to my God, and your God.
The same love of Christ that drew him from Heaven to the womb of the Virgin, from the womb of the Virgin to the Cross, and from the Cross to the grave: the same love of Christ moved him to discover himself after he was risen from the grave, to them that he knew did entirely and wonderfully ⟨p. 2⟩love him. And therefore before he would ascend to Heaven, he did vouchsafe many apparitions and discoveries of himself, partly to instruct them in the certainty of his Resurrection, and partly (but especially) to comfort them. Those that he knew, did love him.
THe same love of Christ that drew him from Heaven to the womb of the Virgin, from the womb of the Virgin to the Crosse, and from the Crosse to the grave: the same love of Christ moved him to discover himself after he was risen from the grave, to them that he knew did intirely and wonderfully ⟨p. 2⟩love him. And therefore before he would ascend to Heaven, he did vouchsafe many apparitions and discoveries of himself, partly to instruct them in the certainty of his Resurrection, and partly (but especially) to comfort them. Those that he knew, did love him.
