For when the Lord speaks once, or a second time,

[sending] a dream, or in the meditation of the night (as when a dreadful alarm happens to fall upon men, while sleeping on the bed),

When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I thought as a child, I reasoned as a child; but when I became a man, I put away the things of the child.

For now we see through a mirror by reflection, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.
