and god said . . and then there was light

God has thus divided between light and darkness, because he would daily mind us that this is a world of mixtures and changes. Tho' the darkness was now scattered by the light, yet it has its place, because it has its use for as the light of the morning befriends the business of the day, so the shadows of the evening befriend the repose of the night. That God divided the light from the darkness - So put them asunder as they could never be joined together: and yet he divided time between them, the day for light, and the night for darkness, in a constant succession. God saw the light, that it was good - 'Twas exactly as he designed it and it was fit to answer the end for which he designed it. That the light which God willed, he approved of.
