gradually set in which shall issue at last in an everlasting life unto
holiness.
'Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from
all your filthiness, and from all your idols will I cleanse you. A new
heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you . . .
Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe
thee with change of raiment. In that day there shall be a fountain
opened to the house of David, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for
sin and for uncleanness . . . Bring forth the best robe and put it upon
him, for this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is
found . . . What are these that are arrayed in white robes, and whence
came they? These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have
washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.'

hand, and had him into a little room, where sate two little children,
each one in his chair.
