7. The Virgin constitutes an Order, Empire, and Ʋniverse apart.
8. The Virgin is a singular work of Gods Power; the holiest that ever shall be created. The divin Pater∣nity is the Samplar of this divin Maternity. The Eternal Father and the Son are tyed by the Person of the Holy Ghost, and the Eter∣nall Father and the Virgin are tyed by the Person of the Son.
9. The Eternall Word, who is in So∣ciety with the Father and Holy Ghost before all time, doth in time enter League and Society with the Virgin.
10. Oblation and Donation to the Son, and to the Mother in quality of Bond-slave.
11. Enlargment and Explication of this Donation: with the particulars thereof.
12. This Oblation tends to the ho∣nour of the Virgins Elevation, and Depression in the Mysterie of the Incarnation.
13. In the Virgin all is Great, and particularly her Maternity, her Soveraignity, her Sanctity.
14. It is a small matter that we make our selv's the Virgins Bond-staves, and therefore we wish her to employ her power over us, and that she would vouchsafe to make us truly so.
A concluding Prayer to the sacred Virgin-Mother upon the same subject.
