2201. Verse 12. And Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am grown old, shall I have pleasure? and my lord old? “Sarah laughed within herself,” signifies the affection of that rational truth in regard to its being so done; “saying, After I am grown old, shall I have pleasure?” signifies that it was not of the affection of that truth that it should change its state; “and my lord old,” signifies that the affection of truth wondered that the rational good to which truth was adjoined should also put off the human.
