A Delineation of this whole Booke.

IT is a Poſition in the Metaphyſickes, that Omne bonum eſt ſui communicativum; Goodneſſe cannot be contained within it ſelfe, but it manifeſts it ſelfe to others. So the Moraliſts ſay, Amor uon eſt unius; Love muſt alwayes be betwixt tvvo or moe. So the love and goodneſſe of Gods are manifeſted to the world divers wayes: but the firſt ſight that we get in them, is in Creation, whereby God gave all things through them a being and ſubſtance, which no creature on earth can underſtand, except man becauſe he beareth the Image of God (or at leaſt ſome ſparkles thereof) ingrafted in his heart.
