We have hitherto treated of the manner of divin- ing according tothefubjed matter; now folloA^sthc manner of prefaging out of dreams. But fince dreaoas arc either divine, or humane, we arc to conlider what truth, and out of what dreams this truth is to be had, and how far divination by dreams may belawJulornct.
Divine dreams as they arc without controverfie the moft certain, fo do they require a certain faith : But here we muft be, very cautious, and confider what dreams arc properly divine, and what are not fo ; for fometimcs Satan changes himfclf into an Angel of Lights
Divine -^dreams are tryed by examining them by the Pvule of the known Word: for if they agree with what hath been delivered before, if they bear no- thing new and difcrcpant from thofe things which are the immutable Law of God and theGoipel, they are of God; but if they be a falfe glofs and fliew of Religion and Piety, require fomewhat contrary to the declared word of God, lettbembe condemned they arc not of God.
