Behold, I am with you all days, until the consummation of the age.  
Printed in the Year 1649.   

The Prophetess of the most High, to all Nations and People, etc.  
Showing in stead of a Charles the second, gives ye the character of a second Saul, even He and his for ever cut off, unto that giving place, that everlasting, even proclaimed, The first and the last (to wit) Prophets the beginning and the ending, Jure Divino, afore Kings of the Earth: Certain inferences by, borrowed from days of old (Sam. cap. 10.) whose Reign confirmed by that ominous token, witness of Rachel's Sepulchre (as much to say) such another he mourning and weeping also for his children, because they were not, or not him to succeed, read in letters of her Name, Rachel's, otherwise rendered Charles; and thus running over the sum of it.  
To whom on this wise showed cap. he when little in his own eyes, above the rest how chosen to be a King so great, from tending on Asses, Scotland's former low Estate pointing thereto: & so farther of Kings given in his wrath, in anger taken away: briefly thus, but referred to the first of his Reign, Anno 1625. that heavy hand upon the City, an unparallelled Pestilence, concluded with our three Kingdoms Division; so that if ever all at their wits-end, now accompanying his departure, 23 of his bloody Reign; in making him King of Great Britain, evident the Lord repenting himself much more, well served for their Repining, whom Nothing but a King would serve, who blest were above all Kingdoms; so in a virgin Queen's renowned Reign: And for them so much, First and last of their Name, both tasting of one sharp cup, their Heads cut off, and fastened their bodies in that manner to the wall, or nailed, etc. as to the Story referred (Sam etc.) which had each three Sons: where this for another cast upon her, Thou son of the perverse rebellious woman; whether in right appertains not to our Scotish Jonathan, by his Mother's means stripped of his Royal means and Estate.  
Passing over what between him passed and his ghostly Father or Confessor, supposed to have been samuel's very Spirit, who fell all along both of them upon the earth sore afraid, how feigned or carried out, to make good the innocent blood spilt of such multitudes of his people, who without question as participated of saul's fits, The evil Spirit from the Lord (to wit) the evil Counsel infused by the Clergy; so wanting neither in his Father's Faith or Religion, spoke truer than he witted, whose wanton Minion bewitched with, neither repent hereof; One charged with the life of his Father, nor of his unmeasureable Swearing, which amongst them swore By their saul, so long till verily conjured up his Spirit, that not a little boasted of his Kingcraft, witness Familiar Spirits, witches of late, transferred from Scotland hither: And as for that Agag, the delicate Buckingan how his mother made childless, she author of his unhappiness, she ensnared by their Spanish junkets, cannot but add this to the Reckoning of Phinehas spirit, how it hath acted on these twain, saying, Righteous art thou, O Lord, that hast judged thus, Anno 1628. as when Buckingham his deadly wound had given him, by such a one transported, etc. so even Charles late King, 1648. at length paid home that heavy Stroke or Blow of his, aged Eight and forty, like The flying Rowl, in length twenty cubins, etc. twenty years, which had given him to make his peace or repent him; and so much only at this time commended to the Reader, with this contained in the Prophet daniel's confession (neither have we harkened, etc. (Chapter 9 v. 6.) doubtless pointing to the people of this land alike with dumb & deaf spirits, etc. together with his lame confession on the Scaffold, like blind Devotions Lesson, promised, That he should say but very short Prayers, who came not short of it none at all said that we hear of.  
Nevertheless, unwilling to insult over the worm or grave; as his hard lot, To morrow be thou with me, said to Saul, so This day be thou with me in paradise; peradventure his pardon had folded up herein, which had not received in his life-time altogether those good times others had, etc. might at the last gasp or minute repent: And so much for The Axe laid to the Root of the old Tree, in a Reign of 23 years, which produced no better fruit. And for the title set forth of the Keys of David belonging to her, Rev. 1.7.  
And as demonstrates a second Saul, so a second Adam, he first of the Kings of the Earth, his immediate woeful fall shadowing it forth.  
Witness she subject (Heb.) called Chavah or Eve: By whom had three Sons, where thus for her sake rewarded (Gen. 3.) Even placed at the East a flaming Sword, etc. turning every way, droven out as it seems Westward, from his Garden to the open Field, in their Leather liveries to encounter travel, justly reaping the fruits of accursed mother Earth, war and strife, the Thistle and Thorn, its emblem in stead of the Olive and Grape: All our days as stubble but a blaze, vanished like a shadow: The sum or substance of which informing, formerly as he forbidden expressly the Tree of good and evil, notwithstanding took thereof; so again, when as offered the Tree of life, its Leavs for healing the evil of the Nations, or Kings Evil; a like Trespass or capital Crime guilty of, that rejects it, like judgements draws upon their heads: And therefore suppose not that those Galileans were sinners above the rest, because of late suffered, etc. Nay, but except ye repent, ye all likewise shall perish.  
And so from Saul and Doeg, deriving Douglase, here concluding as began, how his bloody House cut off, also even died for his transgression against the word of the Lord, etc. and also for ask counsel of one that had a familiar Spirit, & enquired not of the Lord (to wit) his Bishops, etc. whose army how swarmed with Witches, never the like heard in any Reign visited in that kind, wherewith showing last of the evil Spirit, when fell upon him, how the good Spirit (at the very same time) rested on another: The solitary Turtle-Dove as it were shut up, one of his own name (owned by King james, before the other of Stuart) and of his Age and Nation: Sir Archibald Douglase, the supposed Son of King james, the Elder Brother about a month, etc. also wrote Anno Etatis, etc. as by a Legacy of a thousand pound per annum, out of his Crown-Lands appointed for him; whereof though disappointed or prevented by the said K. unexpected death, yet of the better part could not be disinherited, than any three Crowns a greater blessing: The holy Spirits anointing apparent by his Letters hereto annexed, that not only in those days were accounted to be distraction; but to this very day, even with Learned Doctor Sybald, fulfilling what honour Prophets receive at home: By whose hand no few of these Manuscripts were burnt: This man's writing who wrote so long ago. From the Hyssop Nicety, unto the Cedar Authority or Supremacy, conversing with no Books, but one the Book: Sir Archibald Douglas right Heir of the Earldoms, howsoever of Morton and Douglas the doughty; likewise of person a choice young man, and a goodly, etc. That Nation's Captain by his Birthright himself a Soldier by profession, in Spain and Germany no ordinary Commander, upon whom the first fruits of the Spirit came.  
Quaeres or Questions To Dr. James Sybald, Minister of Clerkenwel.  
ANd (whether) the very perilous time now, fulfilling what is written in Paul's second Epistle to Timothy, Men shall be lovers of their own selves, more than of God, etc. from such turn away: And what is written in (Mark. 13.) Of the troublesome last days: (ver. 10, 11.) Of which I will say no more, only thus much: Had you demanded of me in how many days, the change which I speak of should be, or known of what consequence it is, ye would not so suddenly have endangered me, as to have spoken a word of me to that purpose, or where I was; when ye see what will be, and what ye have heard of me; even very shortly you will be ashamed, and hearty sorrow for your precipitate Opinion of me.  
Now considering that you are preparing to morrow in the Forenoon, on the uncertain Easter-day; Also to receive your part of the Passover, even kneeling at the Communion-Table; consider these Texts, and prepare an answer to the same: Deut. 16. There thou shalt sacrifice the passover at the evening, at the going down of the Sun, That thou mayest remember it all the days of thy life: 1 Cor. 11. When ye come together therefore into one place; this is not to eat the Lords-Supper, for in eating every one taketh afore his own Supper, etc. john 13. and Supper being ended, etc. Concerning which, tell me therefore in your Conscience; is not the Lords-Supper in the Forenoon a most Belly-god invention: Also the kneeling at the Communion Table doth not fulfil what is written in the first Epistle of Paul to the Corinthians, for 20.8, 21. But I say, the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, not to God; and I would not that you should have communion with devils, etc. Also is not the Title of Doctors a most presumptuous thing (Mat.) Which love the uppermost rooms and chief seats, and to be called Rabbi, Rabbi, and Matth. 23 Neither be ye called masters, etc. As also the names of Saints, (Psal.) When who knows how often he offends; much less knows the secret sins of another: Also according to your Conscience let me know your opinion of the Ministerial Priests: Traditions hath not made the word of God of none effect, or to have no power, Mark 7. ver. 13. and many such like things do ye.  
Also let me know what is their reward that do crouch and make courtesies to boards; when as it is written, Keep thy foot, or have a care thereof when thou goest into the House of God; and be more ready to hear; then offer the sacrifice of fools (to wit) lest thou crouch and make a crooked courtesy to a board, which was but a stock, even a block: whatsoever it was, and whatsoever it is, and they worse than a block that make a cursed courtesy to it, a besotted beast and a devil (Sam. 28.) going even to the very Devil of Hell, with him who stooped with his face to the ground, bowing himself; likewise they try what reverence they can do unto him.  
And lastly, what is the reward of addition and diminishing the word of God, Rev. 22. showing, For I testify, If any man shall add, God shall add the plagues written herein; and if any shall take away, God shall take away his part out of the holy city. So taking in haste leave, think of me what ye please,  
Rest your faithful Friend, ARCH: DOVE. Elijah.  
Likewise know, I desire you not to speak a word of this till the appointed time, only have a care in the mean time of your own soul; Acts 2. Save yourselves from this untoward generation.  
From my Lodging at White-Fryers. Anno 1638. your Easter-Eve.  
To my much esteemed worthy Friend, james Sybald, Minister at Clerkenwel, this.  
Loving Friend,  
IT seemeth your employment is very much, for if it were not so, or if ye had remembered my desire, I should have seen you according to your Promise in two days, after that time ye was with me last: Certainly, if ye knew how near the Great Change is, which I spoke of, ye would have seen me before this: Which unexpected Change, whatsoever it be, it being so exceeding near, I request you, whatsoever ye have to do, let me see you this afternoon: But a few words. And likewise through CHRIST I charge you, not to speak a word of this, until you see what GOD will do shortly; whatsoever it be, unless a very Great Change be shortly, then think of me what ye will: Exitus acta probat.  
Ye may believe me, for I think ye know it had been better for the Lord Major of this City, Anno Dom. 1638. to have heard me from the LORD, then to have had the Plague of GOD amongst them, which came just then, how soon the seven Elected Eldermen did charge me, not to come near them, nor write any more unto them; which did so offend GOD, as his Plague hath continued amongst them until this day: Therefore do not vilify my Request. So till I see you, Rest,  
January 19 Anno Do. M.DC.XXXVIII. Your faithful Friend, * Rev. 2.28. THE MORNING STAR.  
I pray you bring no servant with you, near the place where I am; for I am exceeding loath for to be known, to be near the city, until I be seen at Court; which now God willing will be shortly: I am sure there is none knoweth I am so near you, no not one, except my servants: Therefore I request you let me not be discovered by you, nor by your words, concerning the contents of my Letter.  
Likewise do not think to lose much time with me, for one sentence shall be sufficient.  
To a Messenger of the LORDS, Dr. James Sybald, Minister at Clerkenwel at London, this.  
Loving Friend,  
Myself, though your Wellwisher, hath constantly been committed willingly within the Chamber and Study where ye left me about two Year since: It was not the Lords Will, know hitherto, that I should write unto you, since the 20 of June, Anno Aetatis, 1638. Because the Great Change which he moved me to tell you, was to be suddenly, know, it was not to be accounted according to the computation of man, but according his own (to wit) it was not plainly to begin, until some few days hence, according to our computation; his mercies being above all his Works: He gives his very enemies a space of time, for to consider their own do, that they might repent. Though now adays most of all the men of this world, cannot possibly be moved lawfully for to be obedient unto him, nor to be just: So saith ELIAS and verily ELIJAH, who desireth you, if you love yourself, or your own good, for to come unto him about two a clock this afternoon: otherwise, assuredly the LORD will not let me do you the good which I intent, who lets you understand, none of the unjust within this Kingdom before long will be able to stay therein: So think of this, and do which I lawfully desire for the best, till I see you. Vale. And so rest,  
Your faithful Friend, DOUGLASE. Decemb. 19 Anno Do. 1639.  
From the JACOBIN or Carmelistain Friars, to wit of old, From the Carme, friar, Frater; as Fray may be well applied truly unto any one of all the many many sorts of Friars, whose Fray hath continued too long; and now, it must, it must be returned to them.  
And here happy Readers, with this Manna communicated (to wit) the Divine Prophecies of this Man; know herewith ordained and enacted as heretofore, a Rebel against the Father proclaimed, he that Despised the Son; likewise (unable to gainsay it) they a Reprobate Church, sitting in the seat of Scorners: which acknowledge not the fulfilling of these now, (John 16. All things which the Father hath are mine: Therefore I said, that he shall take of mine, and shall show it unto you; and he shall show you things to come, as much to say, Even manifested the truth of those sacred Mysteries, contained in the Revelation of jesus Christ which God gave unto him, etc. Cap. 1. Things for the future treasured up, by no other Spirit to be unfolded, but by the same Spirit of truth, wherewith were written at first, or penned; and for that purpose the same poured forth again in the last days: And so these by that Spirit then persecuted, witness (Rev. xi.) The Beast ascended on't of the bottomless Pit, or Abyss, one in old samuel's likeness, Bishops, etc. Also which testifies, whosoever despiseth the Spirit of Prophecy, guilty of all the Blood of the Prophets shed: And therefore lest your sentence that, Ye stiff necked, etc. ye do always resist the holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye (Acts 7.) provoke him not, who is a consuming fire, according to their works, jew and Gentile both highminded, who rewards them, as referred to the prophet Malachi, accompanied with what judgements (cap. 4.) when that blessed time, arising with healing in his Wings, (ver. 2.) the meek dove Messenger of peace, displaying her golden feathers, as the lightning out of the East shineth even unto the West (Mat. 24.) the Spirit of Prophecy vouchsafing a visit, absent from the Church so long comfortless, saying, I have the Keys of Death and Hell, a Sceptre of seven Stars in whose right hand (Re. cap. 1.) pointing to times Mystery, the present Century, and at this time so much for admonishing all: He that hath an ear, let him hear, etc. and far him well that will not; a story by whom related of Alexander the Great, etc. on the Scaffold, as well might have told a tale of his Horse.
