"Lift up your eyes Christian, & see what pleasures there are
"within the veil": Come drink thy fill of the new wine, let thy
faith draw the curtains of Eternity, & take a view of those
heights & depths, & lengths & breadths of that glory & Joy, which
there it may discover. Look on him that "sits on the
throne," and those everlasting treasures of light, holiness,
goodness and mercy, which are streaming from his face,
on those over-flowing bowell, of kindness & compassion,
on those rivers of pure & eternal pleasures, rest and
peace, that rise from that glorious throne, and run
through the city of God. Behold the "Tree of Life," and
feed thy soul on its precious fruit, whose very leaves
are for the healing of the Nations. Hearken to, & fill thine
ears & heart with those triumphs & exaltations, those
raptures & extacies of unspeakable & glorious Joys, turned
upon the hearts & tongues of the "Heavenly Choir" the
glorious Angels, "and the spirits of Just men made perfect,"
by the fruition of of thy God, the God of Glory.

Look on & profess this Joy & Glory; say to thy
soul as God to Abraham - "Lift up thine eyes & look
from the place where thou art, Northward, & southward
& eastward & westward," through all the Coats & all the
dimensions of the blessed land of Promise, the Holy City
& then say, "Come soul, take up thy rest here, all this is thine."
