Homage to Mistress Bradstreet is much admired and little read, its clotted syntax not permitting enough air to let the piece breathe. One feels the strain in its assemblage.

Pipes turn out to be documents.
This just blew my mind. Reminds me of this scene in The Fault in Our Stars when Hazel is wearing a shirt with a pipe on it and tries to argue with someone that its not actually a pipe... it's only a drawing of a pipe..

It was a pure delight, which fed and satisfied the soul. It was peasure
While Sarah Pierrepont Edwards' awakening is not quite as sexual as Edwards', there are certainly similar words being used. "Sweet," "delight," "pleasure," "fill," we've seen these words before.

sweet
I just want to report the return of "sweet." It's in here ten times,

nothing that you can do
But there is something? Edwards said before that believing in God would save them....I'm so done with this guy.

The God that holds you over the pit of hell, much as one holds a spider or some loathsome insect over the fire, abhors you
Where the hell does he get this stuff? We are bugs? God hates us? I don't think Edwards and I read the same Bible....

bow of God’s wrath is bent, and the arrow
The use of the bow and arrow here to represent God's judgement is interesting: what are the implications of using a weapon to describe God?
-
nothing but the mere pleasure of God that holds the waters back,
I want to know how many times he says the same thing in different ways.
-
were it not for the restraining hand of God, it would immediately burst forth upon you
Yes, thanks Edwards. We get it.
-
were made for men to serve God with
I feel that, according to the Bible, it was the other way around. Humans were "above" all living things and they were made to serve us.
-
he earth would not bear you one moment
I think this viewpoint is interesting. From the Christian perspective, God created the Earth and all the creatures and then let Adam and Eve name them, it seems like they were created for humans (from the Christian perspective).
-
APPLICATION The use may be of awakening to unconverted persons in this congregation.
It kind of sounds like an instruction manual. Application for sermon: to scare the hell out of non-believers
-
God certainly has made no promises either of eternal life, or of any deliverance or preservation from eternal death,
I feel like this is an exact promise in the Bible. Edwards really likes scare tactics.

He has the word sweet in here 32 times. And four in this paragraph alone.

express, emptied and annihilated; to lie in the dust, and to be full of Christ alone; to love him with a holy and pure love; to trust in him; to live upon him; to serve and follow him; and to be perfectly sanctified and made pure, with a divine and heavenly purity
Sheesh, keep it in your pants, Edwards. The sexual undertones in here are so noticeable and someone mentioned earlier than Edwards often has a hard time expressing his joy in the Lord. Maybe sexual pleasure is his way to express that.

“Anybody that made it through the ’90s and [aughts] without having their libertarianism taking a pretty good hit wasn’t paying attention,” he says in a recent telephone interview. “We deregulated every g--d--- thing, and it came back at us in this way that we may never recover.”

John Muir, a naturalist, writer, and founder of the Sierra Club, invoked the “God of the Mountains” in his defense of the valley in its supposedly pristine condition.
The "Gods of the mountains" line was a piece of Muir's larger metaphor for the holiness of natural places that figured those who would develop them as "temple destroyers." Here's the full quote from Muir's defense of the Hetch Hetchy in his book The Yosemite.:
These temple destroyers, devotees of ravaging commercialism, seem to have a perfect contempt for Nature, and, instead of lifting their eyes to the God of the mountains, lift them to the Almighty Dollar.
Dam Hetch Hetchy! As well dam for water-tanks the people's cathedrals and churches, for no holier temple has ever been consecrated by the heart of man.

Governments of the Industrial World, you weary giants of flesh and steel, I come from Cyberspace, the new home of Mind. On behalf of the future, I ask you of the past to leave us alone. You are not welcome among us. You have no sovereignty where we gather.

Clearly, John Eliot Gardiner's involvement with Bach's music has been in with the passions, masses, and cantatas. Still, it would have been revealing to read Gardiner's take on Bach's instrumental work.
