And declareth in general what that same felicity shall be. And incontinently he confirmeth these things by many reasons, moreover he describeth the place, the court & Palace of the blessed, and likewise the glory and felicity of Saints. The which in the beginning of the .20. chap. he finisheth up exceedingly well, under the figure of a r•uer & •ree of life.
