high angel

Nor, again, would anybody guess, without previous knowledge or elucidation, that a highwayman was a kind of robber, a high-head a kind of coiffare, a high-low a kind of boot, a high-man a kind of loaded die, or that, when our ancestors spoke of a high-father, a high-angel, and a high-bishop, they meant a patriarch, an archangel, and an archbishop respectively.

Such a man continues to progress in this state till an imperceptible [tru]th opens between his mind and the minds of the seraphic order of high angels.
