The Corrector to the Reader, concerning the Orthografy or Speling heerin used.  
READER,  
WOnder not to see me Spell, as thyself daily speakest, & hearest others sound words. I hav● heat endeavoured to spell as we sp●ak, for the advantag' sâk which I know will thereby ens● if practised, I. To Children in learning to read, who's tender capacities âr over charged, memories bu● thene I & dulled with harsh speling, by which they ât kept longer in learning.  
II. To Men & Women in writing; who though they have learnt to read well enuf, when they comto writ, âr at a los how to spell aryt, as its called.  
III. To strangers in learning English, who âr discouraged & almost put out of hôps of ever learning to speak, read & writ good English; And all this only throuh the present harsh manner of speling, s●ars to be comprysd in Rûls, which is the only means strangers abroad, have for learning to speak, & for all, though in England, to read & writ trû English. Besyds the multitûds of superfluos Letters; in the present Speling, all which is amended & avoided by speling & writing simply as we speak: As no les than 5. in the word Righteousness (as thus commonly spelt) âr avoided by speling it thus. righteousness, & no les than 3. 0● 6. letters in the word Though, spelt thus Tho'. Which do as perfectly sound the words as the other though nigh twys so many letters. Wherefore I have thus done, 1. Chief f●r the benefit of strangers, in all words in which the letter (i) is sounded as (y) which no other Nation, but ours doth; I have ûsed (y). The old English way, throuh change ' of which, into (i), such confusion is happened in sounding that letter, somtyms ôn way, as in King, Thing, etc. & somtyms another way as in Kind, Mind, Child, etc. that a stranger cannot by Rûls be tauht when to sound it as in the former words softly, or as in the latter words fully as (y). Which being spelt with (y). K●nd, Child, etc. is remedied,  
2. The letter (e) where it is mût & maketh not a syllabl, but only the former syllabl●long, I ●ay left out; strangers commonly in that câs pronouncing môr syllabls, th●n there âr, as time for time, love for love, time's for times, etc. Which being written tym, lov, times, etc. there is but ôn syllabl for them to sound. And how is it possible, otherwys to giv certain Rûls when to sound the (e) & when not; seeing in the word plases; it must; & in times, it must not be sounded? And for compensing the ûs of the (e) viz. of distinguish a short from a long syllabl, I have oft used the Accents (〈◊〉) or (〈◊〉). Which doth again distinguish (as e did) betwixt words of dyvers significations, though of the sâm letters. As mad from made, thus, mâd. hat from hate, thus, ●ât. on from one thus, ôn us from use, thus, ûs. Which yet âr sufficiently distinguished by the se●s.  
3. Where any other letters may be spared in the midst or end of words, I have left them out. Viz. all doubel letters in the end as bless, cali, will, blessing, willing, etc. (a) in bread, dead, dread, etc. (p) in contempt, temptation, redemption; etc. (u) in labour, favour; etc. (g) in plough, through, thought; &. (gh) in high, light, might● etc. Thus m●t, lyt, thouht, throuh, favour, labour, redemption, temptation, ded, bred, dread, will, call, bless, blessing, wil-ing. And because stranger● read People, in 3 syllabls, I put Peepl in which they cannot wel●er. And thus I could wish all other difficulties myt in tym be removed, & their way mâd as easy as it can, for I believe the desyr of many Nations & Peepls shallbe unto the Peepl & languag ' of England Fo● the understanding of the wondroes things which the Lord hath done, & is yet doing in & for them, to the admirat on of all that shall bear thereof. Be not offended at me for this (why should we not help them?) but bear with me &c believe me to be, Who ever thou art,  
Thy trû Friend, N. Y.   

The Arrainment of Christendom, etc.  
KNOW ye that the Lord God Omnipotent, who is the God of the Spirits of all flesh, even the Former of all things, hath manifested himself in all Ages, not only to be a God merciful, patiented, long suffering, & of long forbearans towards provoking & Rebellios' Mankind, but hath also appeared to be a God, of most Ryteos, dreadful, & impartial wrath & vengeans, pouring forth his justly deserved Judgements, upon alsorts, & generations of Peepl, Hylas & Low, Rich & Poor, Mál & Femàl, of what degree, rank or quality soever from the Prins on the Thrón, to the Beggar on the Dunghill.  
And the Iniquitys which have preceded, God's general Judgements in the ages past, were generally thes, to wit, covetousness, Pride, Oppression, Cruelty, Idolatry, Persecution, & shedding of Innocent Blood, the Scriptures of truth, as well as other records do abundantly giv testimony to the truth thereof, & dyvers Instanses I myt prodús to evidens the sâm but I shall only mention something briefly concerning too.  
And first concerning Israël of old, who were Gods chosen Peepl abov all the families of the earth in their tym, & age, for who's sak the Lord did terribl & wonderful things in righteousness upon Pharo & Egypt, & at the Red Sea, & in the Wilderness, & in the Land of Canaan, & notwithstanding, their Rebellions, provocations, & backslydings were many, & great, yet great was his patience, long suffering & forbearans extended towards them very long,  wrath to the uttermost seized on them, he carried them as on Eagls wings & led them safely as a tender Father by the hand of Moses & Aron, corrected them in lov, & mercy, giving them many gentle warnings, and wholesome Counsels & Advys, by his Servants the Profets, whom he raised up, & sent amongst them, & fulfilled his promise to the uttermost to them which he màd to faithful Abraham, there failed nothing on his part, as their own records testify.  
But as it is written, they for a little tym believed his word & sang his preys but soon forgot what God, the rock of th●ir salvation had done for them, Jesurun waxed fat & kik-ed against the God of their mercies, & notwithstanding the many & great provocations of him to cut them of, he yet wrouht & strov with them for his own great Nâm sak, that it myt not be blasfemed among the Heathen, laying his correcting hand in mesur on them, if possible tô turn them to himself from the evil of their do, sending Blasting, Mildews, Locusts & Caterpil-ers, which devoured the fruits of the earth, but yet they returned not to him, he sent also many of his Servants the Profets, ôn after another to reprov, and warn them, denouncing the most dreadful judgements of God against them, yet they still persisted in their wickedness, & as it is written, they evilly, entreated his messengers, stoned & murdered his Profets, which he in lov, & pity sent amongst them, which caused the Lord to lay his hand mor and mor heavy on them, & suffered the heathen dyvers times to come, & exercies Cruelty & Dominion over them even in their own land & several times to lead them captyv into other cuntries. But yet still such was his lov, pity & faithfulness towards them, that when any mesur of true repentans appeared in them, & that they cried unto him in their distress, he heard, and delivered them, raising up dyvers Saviors, & deliverers for them, returning their captivity dyvers times, but no sooner were they restored & settled but a while in the enjoyment of the blessing and goodness of God, but they corrupted themselves still, mor and mor backsliding revolting and rebeling against the Lord, so that he said unto them by the Profet, wherefore should ye be smitten any mor, from the greatest to the least they were become unsound, & corrupt in their do, their pride testified against them, even to their faces, in their vain and lyt attyr adorned with costly and needles ornaments, their hauhty looks and carriages.  
Vyolens, 
Oppression.  Spoil and Oppression was found in a by degree among their Governors, & Rulers, they judged not the cause of the fatherless, neither would suffer the cause of the widow, & oppressed to come  them, or have justis from them, 
Injustis.  they oppressed the poor and crushed the needy, so that the Lord told them by the Profet, that the Lord God had sworn by his holiness that he would taken them away as with hooks, & their posterity as with fish hooks.  
And they were no les abominabl in their Idolatry and falls ways of worship, 
Idolatry.  filing the land with Ydols, erecting Ydol Templs, wherein they exercised most abominabl Idolatry to their Ydol Gods, after the manner of the heathen round about them, so that the Lord complained of them by the Profet, that they were become mor sottish, & Brutish than the very Beast, saying the Ox knoweth his owner, and the Ass his Master's Crib, but Israël doth not know, my Peepl do not consider, The Land was full of Ydols, they worshipped the works of their own hands, the mean man bowed down, and the great men debased themselves, therefore spàr them not, said the Lord God, yea so brutish, sotish, and mad were they upon their Ydols, that notwithstanding they roasted, and boiled their food with the sâm kind of wood of which they mâd their Ydols, yet had they not so much understanding as to see that it was so.  

Blood guiltiness  And as for Blood guiltynes, the Lord complained of them by the Profet, that their hands were full of blood, so that they were become abominabl, even a stink in the nostrils of God, even in their worship, and prayers to him, so that he said to them by the Profet thus; To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices, and that their New-moons, Sabbaths, calling of assemblies & offering Incens, was as if they blessed an Ydol, and murdered a Man, and that he was weary to bear them, and could not away with their worship, and prayers, saying though ye mâk many prayers, yet will I not hear you, for your hands âr full of blood, and yet, notwithstanding all this, did not the Lord cease stryving with them, saying by the Profet, whywil ye die o house of Israël? wash you, make you clean, cease to do evil learn to do well; though your sins be as crimson I will mâk them as wool, red as scarlet, yet will I make them, become whyr as snow, if ye yet be wil-ing & obedient, ye shall eat the good of the Land. But notwitstandig all the Patiens, kindness, & long suffering of the Lord, they persisted still in their pride, oppression, cruelty, Idolatry and murdering the Innocent, till the wrath of the Lord brâk forth upon them so that there was no remedy, 
Their mesur filled up.  proceeding on in their wickedness till they had filled up their mesur to the full, in denying, betraying, crucifying, and murdering, even the Son of God himself, the Lord of life, and glory, who himself wept over jerusalem, bewailing them, because of the dreadful wrath of God, which he saw near at hand to come upon them, saying O jerusalem, jerusalem, thou that kilest the Profets, & stonest them that are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thee, as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, but thou wouldst not, o that thou hadst known, at least in this thy day, the things which belong to thy Peas, but now they are hid from thy eyes, Dauhters of jerusalem weep not for me but for your selus, & sor your children, for behold the day cometh, that thy enemies shall cast a trench about thee, & keep thee in on every syd, and lay thee even with the ground, because thou knewest not the tym of thy visitation.  
At the tym of who's suffering, & soon after, as also by the Entrans and prevailing of the Apostasy in the Gentiles or Romans, the Word of the Lord by the Profet joël was fulfilled, to wit that the Sun should be turned into darkness & the Moon into blood,  the great & not abl day of the Lord should come, which was fulfilled on the Sun Both of the visibls, & invisibl heaven, a vail of darkness being drawn over the Lyt, Lyf, & Glory of God in them both, which began to come over him in the garden, causing that great agony, & bloody sweat, desiring the Father, that if it were possible that cup myt pass, which veil of darkness over him was then at the height, when on the cross he cried, my God, my God why hast thou forsaken me? And the Moon in him also, was turned into blood by their Piercing his Innocent hands, feet & syd, out of which come forth both Blood & Water, which he that see bâr record of, & his record is trû, whereby (as in a figure) was signified, that notwithstanding, according to their own saying, the guilt of his dear, & pretios life, & blood myt have stood unremovably charged on them & their children, yet in & throuh him, should that pûr cleansing fountain of living water, the virtue whereof should wash & clens them, & their posterity, coming into it, from the guilt, & filth of all their abominations, & reconcyl them to God & to òn another: which Bowels of the lov, pity, and mercy of God in him towards them, was mâd manifest throuh him on the cross, 
Christ's sufferings, and desertion not for his but others sins the just for the unjust.  in the height & extremity of his sufferings saying, Father forgiv them they know not what they do. Whos sufferings, with that great vail of darkness drawn over the Lyt, Lyf and Glory of God. in him, was not throuh or because of any sin transgression, or disobediences found in him against his God and Father, but it was by, thronuh, & because of the sins, transgressions, disobediences, cruelty & unrighteousness of the Poepl, it being then the hour, & power of the Kingdom of darkness, in which the transgresing power, (from its first entrans into the World) was come to its highest pitch as to the whole body, the power & strength of the seed of the old Serpent being united & combined in both jew and Gentil, against that Innocent pur, Lyf, Seed, Wisdom, Power, Lyt, & Glory of God, which in, and throuh him appeared and was manifest, whereby the shepherdwas smitten, even the man which was his fellow, & the sheep scattered, and he bearing the sins and transgressions of many in his body on the tree, was numbered with transgressors, mâd and reputed as accursed, 
the end of Christ's sufferings.  suffering under their unjust, and cruel wills, and laws, the Just, for the unjust. That so those who by their disobediences, & transgressions, were justly lyabl to the Cros, & condemnation of the most just, and ryteos Law of God, aliens, & enemies in their minds against God, & him, by wiked works, myt receiv forgiunes of sin, & an inheritans with them who are sanctified, and be reconciled to him and ôn to another, and mâd partakers of the righteousness of God in him.  
And soon after his death, was the Moon (to wit the whole body of the jews) turned into blood also, 
The Judgement exalted.  which appeared in tho● great destroying wars, enmities, destructions and desolations, which were amongst them ôn against another, which just, and ryteos wrath and vengeans of God on them, declared against them throuh Christ, and the Profets, was fulfilled by the Romans, whom God suffered to come on them, and utterly to destroy and overturn their glorios City, Templ, Priesthood & Government, & dispossess them of the good land, leading them captyus into dyvers other Cuntries, in which they still remain scattered up and down & ár mâd a scorn, a derision, & a byword among the nations, under the ours unto this day, and as for any outward visibls or Erthly power, & dominion, they shall never mor be restored to the exercies of it, but according to the prayer of Christ & the promise of God, throuh the holy Profets, recorded in the Scriptures of truth, if they abid not still in unbeleef, they shall be reingrafted into the good oliv tree, & mâd again partakers of the blesed Root, and Fatness thereof, and God will power on them the Spirit of grâs, and supplication, and they shall see him, in them, whom they have pierced, not only in, that Innocent ôn, whom they with cruel hands murdered and crucified on a cross without the Gâts of jerusalem, but also in themselves, by their Rebellions, and disobediences against the motions, & dictates of the sâm living word of Faith, Lyt, life and power of God in themselves and shall mourn for him, as ôn mourneth for the los of his first born Son and God will wryt his púr law of Spirit & life in their hearts, and inward parts, and be their God, and they shall be his Peepl and become Citizens of the new jerusalem, with the chosen generation, the Royal and everlasting Priesthood, fellow theirs with the truly nôbl seed in that. Kingdom, Glory & Dominion which is pûr & Eternal, and be redeemed from that Scorn Reproach, Contemt, Captivity, and curs under which they now âr.  
At the sâm tym also was a vail of Darkness drawn over, the sâm lyt, life & glory of God, which is in the Son of the visible heaven, so that Darkness was over all the Land from the sixth to the nynth hour, whereby as in a figure was sórshewn, the fa●ing away, & Apostasy of the Gentiles or the Romans, which Apostasy had its Entrans, Growth & Fullness in the Opening Sounding, & Pouring forth of the second, third, & fourth Seals, Trumpets, & Vyals, whereby a vail of gros Darkness cam over that Pùr lyt, Lyf & Glory of Christ, which was in mesur manifested, & shining forth in & throuh them, thereby crucifying, to & in themselves the Son of God afresh putting him to pen shâm, & having murdered, & slain the Lyf of Christ, that just ôn in themselves, they stretched forth their hands in ways of Persecution, Cruelty, & Murder, against the appearans of the sâm Pûr Lyt, Innocent Lyf, & Glory of God in others, till they became Drunk with the Blood of the dear Innocent Saints, Martyrs, & faithful Witneses of JESUS, so that the Sun (in them) becâm black as Sackcloth of hair, and their Moon hath been turned into Blood, which hath manifestly appeared in thôs great Confusions, Bloody wars, Destructions, & Desolations which hâv been amongst themselves in every Kingdom, & Dominion throuhout Christendom, and now they having filled up the Mesur of their Abominations, the great & notabl Day of the Lord is come, in which the Lord will, throuh, & by the Turkish power, carry on the finishing his Just & Ryteos decree of Wrath & Vengeans, on them (to wit Christendom) & they also shall become not a peepl of any visibls, or outward, earthly Power or Government upon the fâs of the earth, as of themselves, any môr for ever.  
But according to the Word of the Lord throuh his Servants the Profets, he will Rays up in them, a pûr seed which shall ferv him, even a numberless number, which shall with all the Ransomed ôns, stand  the Thrôn clothed in whit Rôbs, ascrybing salvation unto God which fireth on the Thrôn, & unto the Lamb, saying, Blessing Glory, Wisdom, Thanksgiving, Honour, Power, & Myt be unto our God for ever & ever Amen. The slain of the Word, by the Lord of the Mouth (amongst them) shallbe many. And so both Jew, & Gentil shallbe united, & become ôn stik in the hand of the Lord, ôn Holy Nation upon the Mountains of Israël, & ôn King shallbe King over them all, even David my Servant, saith the Lord God, they shall hâv ôn shepherd, & walk in the judgements of the Lord, & observe his Statutes to do them, & shall dwell in the Land, even they, & their Children, & their children's Children for ever, in the partipation of the new & Everlasting Covenant of God, & his Sanctuary, & Tabernacl shall be in the midst of them, & he be their God, & they his Peepl for ever môr.  
And when the Lord hath done his work in Zyon he will also punish the stout heartedness of the King of Assyria, & bring down the Glory of his hy looks, & the loftiness of man (in them also) shallbe a based, & brouht down, & that hautynes laid low, even with the ground, & the Lord will aveng the Blood of the house of Ahab upon the house of Jehu, & cause that Kingdom to cease for ever, even all that Rûl Authority, & Power, risen & standing in the Spirit, & Power of the Dragon that old Serpent) shall be thrust down under the feet of the pûr seed, Christ, the wisdom & power of God in his Peepl, even throuhout all the habitabel parts of his Earth, so that Nation shall not lift up sword against Nation, nor learn war any môr, but the Kingdoms of this World shall become the Lords, and the Lord God Omnipotent shall rein, in, throuh, & over all for ever môr.  
The other exampl which I shall mention is Nabuchadnezzar & Belshazzar his Son, who, together in their power, were the Golden head of that Imag, which Nabuchadnezzar saw, of which your predecessors, together with you, even you, the present Roman Empyr, with all other the Kings, Prinses, Heads, & Ruler's throuhout Christendom, & the Dominions, and Territories, thereunto belonging in your & their Power, Military, Civil, & Ecclesiastical (so called) are the feet, & Toes, which the Stôn cutout of the mountain without hands, is now smiting.  

Nebuchadnezzar's arrogans.  Now it is written concerning this Nabuchadnezzar, that he was a King of Kings, and that the God of heaven had given him a Kingdom, Power, Strength, & Glory, but he being ignorant of that God that mâd him, & gâv him that great strength, & large Dominion, did in the Pride of his heart attribute that Glory, myt, Majesty, Strength, Dominion & honour unto himself, which was dû to the Lord God of heaven alôn, & at his Dispôs; exercising cruelty, & oppression on whom he pleased, making a law in his own wicked will, to cause all to bow to that Imâg, 
His work.  which he in his own Idolatros heart, had invented, & sit up, or else to Murder, and Destroy the Refusers by fyr, though Otherwys Innocent, & guiltless of any evil done against him, 
His visitation & reward, though a King  but even whilst he was (in the pride and arrogancy of his heart) assuming that Glory, & Honour to himself which was du only to the God of heaven, there fell a voys from heaven, saying. O King Nabuchadnezzar to thee be it spoken, thy Kingdom is departed from thee, they shall dryv thee from Men, thy dweling shall be with ye Beasts of the field, they shall mâk thee to eat grass as oxen, & seven times shall pass over thee until thou knowest that the most hy ruleth in the Kingdom of Men, & giveth them to whom soever the wil 
His restoration when he giv God his glory again.  Which the same hour was fulfilled upon him, which was a just Judgement, & yet a gentle warning from the the God of heaven, who after wards restored him to his Kingdom, & caused him there by to acknowledge the God of heaven, & that he ruleth in the Kingdoms of Men, & siteth up, & Putteth down whom, & when he pleaseth.  
But Belshazzar his Son, not taking warning, & being found guilty of his Fathers Iniquitys, the God of heaven did Justly visit the iniquities of the Father upon the Son, sending a hand writing upon the wall (even whilst he was (in the Pride of his heart) drinking Wyn in the vessels of the Tempel of God, 
That Son which succeeds in his father's Vys shall inherit his father's reward as well as Crown.  praising the Gods of Gold, silver, bras, Iron Wood, & stone. But the God in who's hands his Breath was, he glorified not) at the sit whereof his Countenans changed, his Thouhts troubled him, the joints of his loins loosed, & his knees smote ôn against another; Which hand writing was quickly fulfilled upon him, by the most just, & impartial hand of God; Himself being slain, his Kingdom finished & given to Darius the Median, by all which it Evidently appears, that the Lord God of heaven, is a God of most Ryteos, & Impartial justis on whomsoever they be that are found persisting in ways of wickedness & Rebellion against him, & none are abel to deliver, either themselves, or others out of his hand.  
Now that which I have Further to say, is concerning your selus, & your predecessors but most Nearly it concerneth your selus of this present ag, and Generation, according as it was fôr seen & fôr told by the Spirit of Prophecy, and recorded in the scriptures of truth as well as other Records, so it is true, that they (to wit your predecessors) together with you, wer, & are that fourth Beast or Kingdom, which was to aries out of the Earth, dyvers from all Kingdoms, which devoured the whole Earth, (or powers of the Earth) treading them down, & breaking them to Pieces, being dreadful, and terribel, & strong execedingly, as Iron, having great Iron Teeth, devouring breaking to Pieces, and stamping the Residu under his feet, dyvers from all the beasts that were  him, having ten horns, even ye are the feet and Toes of that Imag, seen by Nebucadnezzar in his dream, spoken of in the Book of Daniel the servant of the most Hylas God, in a mesur of who's spirit & Power, I am now standing up, in my Lot, in the ending of the days.  
Even ye with your predecessors are that Beast which John (the faithful witness and servant of Jesus) see to aries out of the sea, having seven Heads and ten Horns, lijk unto A leopard, who feet were as the feet of a Bear, 
The dragon without what.  & his mouth as the mouth of a Lion, who Power, seat, & great Authority, was given to him by the Dragon, or Military Power, which Beast the world wondered after, spoken of in the Book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gav unto him, to show unto his servant things that must shortly come to Pas which he sent, & signified by his Angel, in his servant john (in Amesur of who's spirit & Power, I am Now brouht forth to declare & Prophecy of thes things unto many Peepl, Nations, Tongus, & Kings,) And as I have already said God mâd ûs, of your predecessors (towit) the Roman Power, to Execut his most just, & Ryteos Decree upon the jews, which Power in their Rys, Growth & Continans in you their Succescors to this present day, hath answered what was foreseen, Declared, and written by the spirit of Prophecy, in, & by the Mouth of his servants concerning them, & you, so that it was of the Lords Permsssion that Power Brak forth in your predecessors in A military from which in its first Appearans, Working, Growth, & Counsels, Became, Strong, Dreadful, Valiant, Wys, Vnanimos and successful, 
Among the Romans both  & after they professed Christ, were many wis & good men & laws.  which way soever they turned spreading the wings of their power far, and wyd, Comprehending in it many contries, and Nations of Dyvers Tongus, and languages, In whos counsels, and Senates were found many Grav, Wys prudent, truly virtuous, and holy Men, amongst whom Dyvers Good, and wholesome Laws, & Decrees for the preservation, and good Government of the Peepl were mâd, and against Images as being contrary to the scriptures; And freedom, and liberty of Consciens in Matters of Religion, and Worship, to such as lived peaceably under their government, there being Atym when the churches had Rest, throuhout all Judea, Galilcâ, and Samaria, and were edified, walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comforts of the Holy Ghost, so that (in Mesur) they Became Agoverment answering its proper ends, under whom such as feared the Lord lived A peasabel life in Godliness, and honesty, which Rendered them noble, and honorable at hom, and famous, Renowned, and Dreadful broad, so that it was counted no small privilege to be Afree Born Rôman, Aliens Judging It worth their while to Part with great sums of money to be naturalyzed under the ROMAN Government.  
And as in their Military, and Civil Power, and Government (so called) they became thus Dreadful, Valjant, Wys, Nobl, Succefful, and spreading, so also in their Religion, and faith, they were truly famous, 
The Lead us d some of the Romans as his Axe, Others he brouht in to nearer communion with himself.  Renowned, and glorios, so that as God had màd ús ' of them as An Axe in his hand to cut of the Jews, who were the Natural Branches, Because of their wikednes, and unbeleef, in Denying, Betraying and Crucifying that Just ón; The Lord Extended his kindness, Mercy, and Goodness to them (to wit your predecessors) being Gentiles, Or heathens, and Aliens from the Commonwealth of Israel, making way throuh their fall, to Engraft your predecessors, into the good Oliv Tree, causing them to Partak of the Root, and fatness thereof, and the blessed, and glorios fruits of the good Olyv tree, was in mesur brouht forth in, and throuh them, so that the glorios, holy workings, & operations of their faith was spoken of throuhout the World, as holy Paul in his Epistel to them declared.  
So that notwithstanding they were Gentiles by Nature, & had not the outward law of God, which was written on tabels of stone, nor the ûs ' of the outward Templ nor circumcision, nor the exercies of any outward Worship, Ordinanses, Cerimonies, & Observations, contained in the Levitical Priesthood which was amongst the Jews; Yet they turning the eye of their minds inward, to the lyt of Christ in them, & walkiug answerabel to that perfect Law of liberty, & life, which God had engraven by his Holy Spirit, in their hearts, & inwards parts, the Apostel declared them to be the trû seed of Abraham, 
The true Circumcision & ●ew.  & Children of the promise, & of the trû circumcision, for none else âr counted by God for the trû seed, but the Children of the lyt, for notwithstanding they were un circumcised in the flesh, yet keeping the righteousness of the Law of God written in their hearts, they were counted of the trû circumcision, the trû Jews, & seed of Abraham, For (said he) he is not a Jew who is on outwardly, nether is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh, but he is a Jew, that is on inwardly, & the trû circumcision is that of the heart in the Spirit, not in the flesh or letter, who's preys is not of men but of God.  
For all who truly turn their minds to the lyt of Jesus, the Mesur of the Spirit of the Grâs of God placed in them, and come truly to know, & answer the leading, 
The law not for the Ryteos, but for the unryteos.  and dictates of the Law of the spirit of life, written in their hearts by God, such come truly to know redemption and Salvation by Christ Jesus the trulyt, and life of God in them, setting them free from the Law of sin and death, and against such the out ward law of God was not given forth, nether ouht any outward Law to be mád by Man against such, for they come to inherit the true substans, even Christ the wisdom, and Power of God in them, which is the new and Everlasting Covenant of Salvation, eternal life, and pur Peas with God, and real fellowship, and communion in the Father, and in the Son the lyt and life in them, which makes the comers there into perfect as pertaining to the consciens, by the Resurrection of Christ from the ded in them, even true redemption, deliverans, Salvation, out of spiritual Egypt, from under the bondag of cruel Pharo, and his taskmasters in them, and to be safely led as throuh the red sea of dreadful fears, clear of all drowning and over-whelming difficulties, and threatening dangers, both without and with in them: As Pharo and his host pursuing them to over whelm, and destroy them; and to see all their oppressing enemies as ded on the sea banks in them, and feel the pur power of God in them descending as on the Mount that myt not be touched giving forth his most just, and Ryteos law of Spirit, and life, the coming and first appearans where of in the inward parts, giveth the true knowledge of sin, causing it dreadfully to revyv, 
The first appearans of God to fallen man is in conviction.  and self to die in them, and their bodies to be the holy tabernakels of the most hy God of Jacob, and he to dwell, and walk in them, and the Pûr pillar of fyr and cloud ordering them, when to mov, and where to stay and pitch their tents, leading them safely throuh the wilderness of temtations, fears and difficulties, as by the hand of Moses, and Aron, giving them lyt, direction, and saf protection in their way, even in the way everlasting, and eternal in them, and the hiden Manna, and pur living water out of Christ the eternal rock of ages, Issuing forth and daily falling down in them, to sustain, nourish and refresh the life, which is pur,

The lyt which maketh all things manifest in the inward parts, which giveth the most true discerning of the most secret purposes, thouhts, & intents of the heart, dividing betwixt the lyt & the darkness, & the ways, & works of them both, as betwixt the soul & Spirit, the joints, & the marrow; Even the Eternal fountain of pur living Water of life, in which the cleansing, preserving, & healing virtue was, is, & for ever shallbe found, to, & in all such, as in the faith & patience of God, wait for the descending of the Angel of the Covenant, which moveth therein; And to know the Holy Profet raised in them whom all ouht to hear, which all who refus to hear cut themselves of from being of the true Israël of God; And to find the pur incorruptibel treasure as hid in the field in them, which nether moth nor rust can corrupt, nor thiefs break throuh to steal; The grain of Mustardseed even the pur seed of the Kingdom of God, swoon, & growing up in them, bringing forth the Peasabel, Holy, & pleasant fruits of righteousness, lov, joy, & pur pease in them & throuh them, in some thirty, in some sixty, & in some an hundred fold; And the virtue of the pur leven in them, leavening the whole lump, causing the whole man Body, soul & Spirit, in all manner of holy conversation, sweetly to smell & Savour, & of the pur wisdom, righteousness, Innocency, & holiness of Christ in & throuh them, & thereby to become as the Lyt of the World, & Salt of the Earth, even a sweet Savour unto God;

And to become crucified, & ded with Christ, to the World, the carnal mind, with the affections, & lusts thereof; & to be risen & ascended with Christ, out of the sepulker, out of the Earth, & all visible things, out of days, times & Sabbaths, up to God the Eternal Rest, Sabbath, & fountain of pur lyt, rest, & pease where mortality is swallowed up of life, & all rùl, Authority & Power, risen & standing in the fallen Spirit, Wisdom & Power, put down, & utterly destroyed;

And the glorios coming of the Father & Son in them, to sup with them, and they with them, feeding daily on the pur living bred of life, & drinking the new Wyn of the Kingdom of God, which refresheth, & nourisheth the life which is holy harmless undefyled, pur & immortal of God in them; And to feel the presence of the great Sepherd the Bishop of the Soul in them, daily taking tender câr of them, leading them in, and out in all their ways, causing them to feed and lie down in the green, fresh, pleasant & soul refreshing pasture in them, & the holy Anointing, even the eternal Spirit of truth daily teaching, and leading them into all truth, which sercheth all things, even the deep things of God, so that they need not that any man should teach them, but as the sâm anointing in them teacheth them: And to feel the operation of the ôn pur faith, which purifieth and cleanseth the heart, and keepeth it clean: The sound Doctrine, pur fellowship, breaking of bred & Prayer, which is not outward meat & drink, neither stands in outward Observations, Carnal Ordinanses, Declarations, & Dispensations, but in the pur Power of the life which is endless & immortal, filing the heart & inward parts with true Pur, Spiritual, & everlasting Lov, joy, Rest & Peas in them, manifesting itself daily throuh them, in the exercies of the pur wisdom righteousness and Holiness of God, in all manner of Holy Conversation, even the pur fellowship which is in the Father and in the Son in them: And to know the Father & the Son to be ôn in them, and to eat of the hiden Manna, the tree of life in the midst of the Paradys of God, & have Power over the Nations (to wit that Spirit & Power in which the nations stand & by which they are acted) in them, & to be cloath●d with the pur whit Raiment, & become as Pillars in the Tempel of God, & to sitdown with the Father & Christ, in the Thrôn of pur life, Power, and Dominion over all that which is at enmity against God in them, entering in by the gât or door (to wit Christ the lyt in them) the way into the Holy City the new jerusalem, which is in mesur come, & coming down from God out of heaven in them, in which, the Lord God Almyty, & the Lamb is the lyt, life & glory for ever môr, even he who is the same as in the beginning the first and the last, the beginning & the end of all the works of God, who was, is, & for ever môr abides near at hand, even in the heart & in the mouth, whom truly, to know, obey, and constantly to follow, is eternal life, pur lov, rest, and pease for ever mor, 
The manifestation of Christ in his Peepl the end of all outward institutions  in whom all Carnal, & outward Typs, Figurs, Shadows, Ordinanses, Wars, Kingdoms, Cities, Temples, Priesthoods, all Divisions of the Earth, Erthly Enjoyments, & Possessions, Gatherings, Fellowships, Intercessions, Teachings, Declarations, Dispensations & Baptisms, both of the Profets & john. With Christ his Mirakels, Preaching, Parabels & last supper are fulfilled, & ended (of which the birth life, appearans, & sufferings of Jesus Christ that Lamb of God, who witnesed a good confession  Pontius Pylat, and was betrayed denied, and rejected by the jews, whom they with cruel hands murdered & slay on a cross without the gâts of jerusalem, with his Resurrection, & Ascension, & Appearans, on & in the apostles waiting at jerusalem, was a Sin,) In whom I say, all things have their end; Even all that which was not in the beginning with God, which hath risen in, and throuh man, in the fallen Spirit, power, & wisdom, even with the ordinanses & appointments of God ad ed because of sin & transgression, until the appearans, & coming of the true pur seed, Christ, the Lord that Spirit, the true heir of all, who is God over all blessed for ever, must now Departed, Vanish, & flee away, & end for ever mor, as into the everlasting Covenant Man Kind is brought.  
But some may say he speaketh against Government, Obj. I & the Ordinanses & appointments of God in the Church.  
I answer Nay. Answer. And as concerning the exercies of power & Dominion throuh men over others; this I say, That all the Powers, and Dominions, that are, or have been sins the entrans of transgression to this day, have been raised & suffered to aries by God, either in mercy or judgement to them over whom it hath been exercised, & that every soul ouht to be subject to the higher power, 
The power to be obeyed what ever the instruments 〈◊〉 but let such tâk heed how they abus the Power.  which all who resist, resist the ordinans of God, what ever the Instruments or Persons be, throuh whom the power is administered, be they Gentel or froward, wicked or godly, and in câs they do abus the power committed unto them, turning the sword backward, sitting up such as work wickedness, making a prey of such as departed from Iniquity, yet ouht none to seek by outward for'rs in rebellions, & insurrections to oppos or resist them, but wherein for consciens sâk towards God any cannot obey their unjust, & unryteos laws and commands they ouht to be subject by Patiented suffering, in the fear, & wisdom of God, bearing their Testimony against the evil, so commiting their souls into the hand of God, as unto A faithful Creator, 
Thus the trù Christians did & still do.  & in so doing the spirit of glory resteth On such, & in du tym the Lord God of faithfulness will clear their Innocency & cause it to shyn forth as the lyt, & his Just wrath, & vengeans to tàk hold on that spirit, & Power, by which they have been màd unjustly to suffer.  

It is the sâm spirit & not the sâm Nam, mâks the sâm Minister or ordinans of Christ.  And as concerning the ordinanses & Appointments of God in the church, this I say, that as God hath, so he still doth sit & appoint in the church, Profets, apostles, Evangelists, Pastors, and teachers, with other helps in Government, & although they have not now the sâm Nâms, yet appearing in the same spirit, and Power, are in truth & substans the same, which shall continu in the church until that end be accomplished in Mankind for which they are Appointed by God, to wit for the work of the Ministry, in gathering and Perfecting the saints, the Edification of the Body of Christ, until all come into the unity of the faith, & Knowledge of the Son of God, unto A perfect man, unto the mesur of the statur of the fullness of Christ.  
But some may say shall man Kind be brouht Or Redeemed into such A stat? Obj. TWO  
I answer Yea; And the ground or reason of my faith, Answ. & hôp heerin is, first because the Lord God of Lyf, Wisdom, Power, and faithfulness, hath promised, and màd a Covenant with his own seed in man kind, and throuh his Servants the Holy Profets, declared that it shallbe so, 
The promise & Covenant of God in man kind the ground of all tr● faith & hóp to which the scripturav a witness.  That the seed of the woman shall bruis the head of the Serpent, & that all the families of the Earth shallbe blesed in, & throuh it, & that into it, the gathering of the Peepl shallbe, & that it shall have the heathen for its inheritans & the utmost parts of the Earth for its possession, & rul them with a rod of iron, & all its enemies become its footstool. & that as a stone cut out of the mountain without hands, it should smyt the Imag' (to wit the Powers of sin & darkness) in the feet thereof, so that the Iron, Clay, Silver & Gold thereof (to wit all the strength & Glory of the Power & Kingdom of Darkness from the foundation to the Top stone in that cursed building) shall be broken to pieces together, & become as chaff, which the wind carrieth away, & that the stone should become a great mountain, & fill the whole Earth; And the Dominion of sin & transgression shall be finished & an end put thereunto, & everlasting righteousness be raised up & established in Man Kind, & they in it, & that as in Adam all died so in Christ (the seed) all shallbe mâd alyv, & as sin hath reined unto Death so Grâs shall Rein throuh righteousness, (the seed) unto everlasting life, & John in the Spirit of Profesy heard him that sat on the Thrôn say, Behold I make all things new. & saw the new Heavens, & the new Earth, wherein righteousness dweleth, & the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, into which nothing that defileth or worketh abomination can enter, or that maketh a , but they who are written in the Lamb's Book of Lyf, whereby was for shown. The restoration of the seed, Christ in mâl, and femâl, & of them in it, to that pur Dominion, & Glory which he had with the Father, in Mankind, & Mankind in him, befôr the foundation of the World, (which lieth in wickedness) began.  

The promise fulfilled in the head & many members, a strong ground of Hôp.  II. Secondly he hath already in mesûr mád those promises, & Covenant good, & performed it, to, & in some, to wit in Christ Jesus that Lamb of God, who was the first begotten from the Deed, the Head of the Body the Church, in whom the Eternal Word of Lyf, the Seed of God (slain from the foandation of the World (which lieth in wickedness) was brouht forth in its Holy, Pur, & perfect Estate of innocency, in whom the old Serpent, the Devil, the Tempter found no Plas, who pased the tym of his sojourning here on Earth in that mortal body, in the pur fear, lyt, life, Wisdom, & Power of God his Father, faithfully finishing the work, given him by the Father to do, & in the same Eternal pur Spirit offered up himself again unto God, & without spot returned into the Bosom of the Eternal Father & fountain of life from whence he câm, & proceeded; As also dyvers of the Saints, and Holy Men of God, by and throuh a participation of the Same Eternal, pur fullness of God, which dwelled in him, were turned from the darkness to the lyt, from the Power of Satan to the Power of God, and witnesed Salvation from sin, and had learned to deny all ungodliness, & worldly lusts, and to liv soberly, Ryteosly & holily in this present World, & were cleansed from all filthiness of flesh, and Spirit, and had overcome the wicked ón, & were mâd free from sin, & become the Servants of righteousness risen with Christ sitting together in heavenly plases in Christ Jesus, and were come to the new Jerusalem, to Mount Zion, the city of the living God, to the innumerabel Company of Angels, the general Assembly, & Church of the first born, to God the Judge of all, and to the Spirits of just men mâd perfect (in them)  
III. Thirdly, Because the sâm Eternal Power which hath accomplished it in the head & Some of the members, 
The Power of God sufficient to perfect the rest.  is abel to acomplish the sâm in every member, according to its plâs, throuhout the whole body being abel to sav to the uttermost all that come to God in him, who is abel to work, so as non shall hinder, for Heaven, and Earth shall pass, and now is pasing away, but not ôn Jot or tittel of all that he hath spoken or promised, shall fall to the ground unfulfiled.  
FOUR Fourthly, The Day is now come, in which an end to the World which lieth in wickedness shall be put, & the Kingdom of darkness, sin, and transgression finished, and the pur, and everlasting righteousness of God (to wit Christ in mâl, and femâl, be mád manifest in and throuh mankind, and mankind in it, reconciled to God and to ón another, in the ever lasting Covenant of life, never mor to be forgotten, in which the whole creation shall have deliverans from the bondag of corruption in to the glorios liberty of the Sons of God.  

The ground of all outward Rul & ordinanses in Church & stat, declared.  And as concerning all Rûl, Dominion, Authority & Power whatsoever that hath been, or shall be exercised in, & throuh man, over others, wirh all the Ordinanses, Appointments of God in the Church, The ground of the Rys, Manifestation, Administration, & Continuans of them all, was, & is man's transgression in sinning & departing from the Lord, the lyt, Spirit, & power of God in the inward parts.  
And man's Restoration, & redemption from sin, & transgression & returning again unto the Lord, in obediens to the lyt, Spirit, 
The most universal gathering, & greatest glory to be after the Apostasy.  and power of God in the inward parts, putteth an end unto them al.  
But according as it was fôrseen, & fôrtold by the Spirit of Christ in the Holy apostles a falling away, & Apostasy from the true Christian faith & life should come, & that the most spreading manifestation of the most Excellent glory, & day of the Lord, & the most universal gathering into him was not to come except there come ' first a falling away & the Man of sin revealed, and Holy Paul in his Advys to the over seers of the flock told them, that after his departur greevos wolus would enter in amongst them, not sparing the flock, & that from among themselves should men aries speaking pervers things to draw Discypels after them, & further said that the Mystery of Iniquity did then already begin to work, & John in his Epistel advyseth them to whom he wrote, to try the Spirits, & not to believe every Spirit, because many falls Profets were then gone out into the World, 
The ●ôp confesseth that the Christ come in that on body of flesh.  saying that every Spirit that confesseth not that jesus Christ is come into the flesh is not of God, & that was the Spirit of Antichrist of which they had heard that it should come, & said then, that it was already come into the World, & that they went out from Among themselves.  
And so it was, that the seed of the Serpent having found Plâs in some, beguiling them, as of old he did Eva, drawing their minds from the simplicity of the Spirit of Christ in them, leading them out into the World, Inclining their hearts after outward & visibel things, it ceased not working even in a mystery of iniquity, covered over with outward shows, & pretences of Christianity, & Holiness, even in the Elders teachers & leaders of the flock, till at length, from, & throuh them, that cursed seed spread itself, as evil leven throuhout the whôl lump, & becâm a Man of sin opposing, and exalting himself abov the pûr seed of God in Mankind sitting there as God in the Tempel of God. And from this cursed root of biternes hath sprung an evil tree, who's Branches have over spread all Christendom bringing forth the evil fruits of covetousness, Pride, Oppression, Cruelty, Idolatry, Wars, Divisions, Persecution, & shedding the Blood of the Innocent, Murdering the harmless Saints of jesus, by many, Cruel, Antichristian, Vnmercyful, & Inhuman, Torturing, Racking, & D●ths by Hanging & Burning, with dyvers other, open, & secret ways of Cruelty & Murder, under a cursed, & falls pretense of their being Heritics, and lykwys the apostle Peter (who's Successor the Pôp of Rôm falsely pretends to be) saw this also taking root in the Elders, 
Lording & preaching for filthy Luker of as great antiquity as any other part of Popish faith, or a practice.  & teachers, that even a Spirit of covetousness, Pride, & lordliness was taking root in them, & therefore exhorted & warned them in his Epistel, saying thus, the Elders which âr amongst you I exhort, who am also an Elder, & a witness of the sufferings of Christ, & a partaker of the Glory that shallbe revealed, feed the flock of God which is amongst you taking the oversyt thereof, not by constraint but wilingly, not for filthy Luker but of a ready mind, not as Lords over God's heritag' but as good exampels to the flock.  
In this Spirit sprang up all thôs invented Nams, Orders, Garbs & Manners of habits of the Póps, Cardinals, Friars, Monks, Capuchins, Nuns etc. And the voluntary humility, & pretended vows of poverty, & chastity, and separation from the World & imitated devotion, Worshipping of Angels, intruding into things which they have not seen, & the Doctrine of Devils, spekinglies in Hypocrisy of a Purgatory to purg' Peepl from sin after they are Deed, forbidding Meats and Marriages, which God had ordained in his own fear, & Wisdom to be enjoyed without respect either to Tim or Persons, enjoining the Observation of Days, Times, Months, & Years, imposing their own corrupt Inventions & Traditions upon the Peepl for Doctrine, 
The faith of Devils,  and from this Root sprang the faith of Devils, in an Imaginary God without them, and at a distans from them, abov the skies, comprehended in three Persons, and of a Resurrection of their Carcases with the Carcases of all others that have been sins man was created, & an Imaginary expectation of Christ to come in the sâm body os flesh in which he suffered Death without the gàts of Jerusalem, out of the visibel heavens, upon the material Clouds to Judgements, & of a heaven to the enjoyed after they are Deed above the skies, and an Imaginary hell or plâs of torment for the wiked after they are Deed, with material fyr & brimstone, of all which they cannot giv either themselves or others a Rational Account, & from this Root sprang the tabel of Devils, (to wit) eating, 
the tabe● of Diuls.  & drinking to excess & Riot, to the raising, & nourishing of that Spirit in man which is enmity against God, & leads in to all the ways of Deceit, covetousness, Pride, lust, Cruelty, & unrighteousness, which are the Spirits of Devils in all manner of the cursed fruits of the works of sin, & darkness throuhout Christendom, among all sorts High & Low, Rich & Poor, Rulers, 
the Fellowship of Devils what.  Wariors, Teachers, & Peepl, which cursed seed, & evil leven took plàs, & Rooting in many in the Apostels' days, and they seeing, & feeling the working thereof, did according to the wisdom of the Spirit of Christ in them writ concerning the sàm, to the end that such as were wavering myt be established in truth, that such as were gone astray myt be brouht back, and that such as did wilfully persist in ways of Apostasy myt be left without excus; & that a testimony myt be left upon record unto succeeding ages, to stay, & comfort such as should suffer for truths sàk at the hands of those that were fallen under the Spirit of Apostasy, and that at the appearans of Christ in his Peepl (now màd manifest) in the brytnes of his coming, to Reveal, Consume & Destroy the Man of sin.  
The recorded Testimony of the Profets, Christ, & the apostles, might be prodused as A trù Witness, or Testimony against the spirit of Apostasy, warning those to whom they wrote, Not to be beguiled of their Reward, or Spoilt by vain Philososij, voluntary, humility, Or worshipping of Angels; for all performanses what soever which are done Only in the will of Man, or Imitation of others, are nether acceptabel to God, nor truly profitabel to man; 
The worsshiping of Angels what.  Which worship of Angels, is, the Creatures being exalted in its self, because of the Operation of the Power Or gift of God in & throuh it, or to lift up, Or exalt Others because of the Eminent operation of the Power, Or gift of God in, & throuh them; The Operation of which Power, Or gift of God, is an Angel of God in Mál, & femál; which things were taking Root Amongst them, the strong despising the weak, & the weak judging the strong, Others making parties, lifting up of Instruments, ón abov, & against another, some saying they were for Paul, Others for Apollo, Others for Cephas, Others boasting in others lyns, of things mád up to their hands, intruding into things which they had not seen, where as the apostles said. That which they declared was that which they had seen, tasted, & handled of the word of life. And the grás ' of God had tauht them, (not in show, or desaitful, & hypocritical profession) but in truth of Practice to deny all ungodliness and worldly lusts and to liv soberly, & Ryteosly in this present world, which was and is the true Purgatory which they held, 
The true Purgatory is the cleansing virtue of the blood or life of Christ.  even the Blood, the Pur spirit of Christ in them, which purged & cleansed them from all filthiness of flesh, and spirit while they were living in the Body, whereby they were presented in Body soul, & spirit blameless, & with out spot  God, &  his throne: Affirming that there is nether work, Knowledge, Or wisdom in the grav, & that as every tree falls so it lies, & as Death leavs so Judgement fynds all, and as concerning meats, and drinks, observation of Days, times & Marriages the apostles advised, not to Judge ón-another in those things, and that the strong should bear with the weak & not to pleas them selves, but when he wrote to such as had seen beyond those things & were Apostatysing and falling back again into those begerly Rudiments, he reproved them sharply, saying that the Kingdom of God was not meats, and drinks, and that both the Belly, and meats, was for destruction; demanding of them, who had bewitched them, and whether (having run well, and begun in the Spirit) they thouht to be mâd perfect in the flesh, teling them that he was afraid of them, lest he had bestowed his labour in vain on them, because they observed days, times, and sabbaths and there were such amongst them as were Eried from the faith, and had mád ship wrak of a good consciens, deceived, and deceiving others in doctrine, and practice, and for dishonest gain gone in the way of Balaam for gifts, and rewards.  
And they affirmed, that the Body, Spirit, Hôp, Lord, Faith, Baptism, God, and father of all, is but ôn, who is in, throuh and over all; Whos eternal pur fullness dwelt bodily in Christ, of whos fullness of pur lyt and life all who receiv and walk in, become Children, and heirs of God in, and with him which is the faith of the son of God, by which the Just lives, in Mâl, and femál, the ón Baptism which saveth, which is not the washing away the out ward filth os the flesh, but the answer of a good consciens, by the Resurrection of Christ, the Lord that spirit from the ded in mâl, and femâl, which all who have the Son; have the Father also, dweling and Walking in them, as saith the scriptures of truth, and Christ said that he was the Resurrection & the life, & all who did, do, or shall liv & believe in him, do, and shall liv, though they were Deed: Such become Children of the resurrection, throuh the participation of the sâm Pur, Divyn Nature, Lyt, Lyf, & fullness of God, which dwelled in, & was mâd manifest throuh Christ Jesus, whereby the Saints then, & now, witnesed themselves to be, not only crucified and ded with Christ unto the World, with the inordinate affections, & lusts thereof, but also to be quikened and risen with him, sitting together in heavenly plases in Christ.  
The Resurrection, redemption & Salvation is of Christ the Seed of God in Mankind, which in Man, as unto Man, becâm as captivated, slain, & in bondag throuh the entrans, & prevailing of sin, & transgression, whereby the becâm the Lamb slain from the foundation of the World (which lieth in wikednes) in Mankind. 
The laying down, the outward body no Curs.  The bâr laying down of the body (which is called Death) is not the effect or reward of sin, the laying down of the body had been, though Man had never fallen in to sin, and transgression, which would not have been, nether shall be to such as àr truly Redeemed, either cursed or any ground of fear or terror, but in the will of the Lord Rather desyrabel, as a Bed of Rest in its plàs, & season, is as truly welcome, and desyrabel, as either food, or the morning, or any part of the day; to him that is in the work of God. 
That Death which is the reward of sin what.   
That Death, and Curs which was, and is the Reward of sin & transgression, entered into Mankind, in the sâm day, & instant of tym, that sin entered,  to the Word of the Lord to, and in them, after which Adam lived several hundreds of Years in the body, yet this I say; That the shortness, and uncomfortabel being of the life in the Body is the Effect of Sin. Christ Said to the father of all that thou hast given me I have lost Nón, & that it was the will of the Father, that he should raiss it up again at the last day, he spoke not of Carcases Or Persons, But of the Pur glory, & Dominion of his own life, which in man (as unto man) throuh the Entrans of trangression, became as slain, captivated, and in bondag; yet in itself lost nothing, but retained, & still retains its Purity, & Dominion in and over Mankind, throuh all Ages, & for ever abides the same, for Christ, the sàm Eternal lyt, 
The lyt always the same in its self, but as to man the dispensation changeth as he changeth.  life, wisdom, & Power of God, which in Mankind  transgression, rendered him to be the Imag of God, and sat him in true Pur honour & Dominion over the works of his hands, became in Mankind after the Entrans of sin A Reprover, & judge in them, so that the life, & Power of God in them, was the sâm in its Purity & undefyled, not consenting to the evil, only differing in the working, & manifestation of its self in Mankind, and the last day is now come in which Christ the Lyt, Lyf, Wisdom, Power, & seed of God, shall be Raised up again in Mankind, & mankind in it, to the Sám Pur Dominion, and glory, which he had with the Father, and Mankind in him,  the world (which lieth in wickedness) began, And as concerning Eternal Judgement, it is committed by the father to the Son, to wit Christ, the Lyt, Wisdom, and Power of God, the faithful & true witness of God, in Màl, and female, which was with the father  his works of Old, which Eternal judgement, hath been faithfuly Executed, in, On, & throuh all ages, & generations, in, & on the general, and in, and on every Particular soul of Mankind that hath done evil, which shall continu to be Executed by him, till all his Enemy's become his footstool; and that Sàm Eternal Judgement, which is in Christ, the Lyt, the faithful & true witness of God in Mâl & Femàl, shall stand for ever in Pur Dominion over the head, & seed of the serpent, which is the transgresing Power in Mankind.  
And as concerning heaven, it is that pur stât of eternal Lyf, Lov, Dominion, & glory; which is the Imag of God in which Mankind was plase  transgresion, 
Heaven what.  & into which Man kind, (by & throuh a participation of that pur Divyn Nature, & fullness of God, which dwelled bodily in Christ Jesus) comes to be again Redeemed, & Restored, which all who truly enjoy, & partak of, do enter in by Christ the lyt, life, way & eternal door, & are saved, redeemed, risen & standing up from the ded receiving Eternal life in him, sitting in heavenly plases in Christ.  
And hell is no other but that Death, Curs, woe, Misery and Tribulation, which entereth, and tàks hold on body, soul, and Spirit, throuh transgression, but that Death, and hell which John in the Spirit of Prophecy wrote of, and saw as cast in to the lâk of fyr, is no other than that cursed Spirit, Power & Dominion of the darkness of this World, which throuh the falling away & Apostasy of the Gentiles or Romans arôs, and hath been for ages, and generations excercised over the several Nations, Kindred's, Tongu's, and Languages throuhout Christendom, in the Dragon's, Beast's, and falls Profets Spirit and Power, who under falls pretences of protecting, governing, and teaching the peepel, in safety, Peas, righteousness, & Holiness, have been a Hell of cruelty, Oppression, unrighteousness, and deceit unto, and over them, as so many sorts of incarnate Devils in their Military, Civil, & Ecclesiastical Powers (so called) riding on the Nations, Robing, Spoiling and plundering the peepel of their Estates, treasures, and fruits of their Labours, at their own cursed wills, and pleasures to uphold, and maintain them in pride, deceit, eas, fullness, and oppression over the peepel, causing also their Blood as a continued Issu to run forth to fulfil their cursed wills and pleasures, as also the Dear Innocent Saints. Martyrs, & faithful witnese of jesus, who throuh ages, and generations passed unto this day have born their Testimony against their wicked ways and practices; Which Spirit, and power must now be cast into the Lák of Eternal Perdition, & Destruction, and suffer the vengeans of Eternal fyr, and be limited and chained down in the Bottomless, Pit in every particular out of which it aros, and the smoke of the torments hereof to ascend up for ever mor, which is the second Death, even the Hell of Hel.  
Furthermâr the Apostel told them to whom he wrote, that they could not be partakers of the Tabel of the Lord, & the Tabel of Devils, reproving that disorder & excess with was amongst them in eating and drinking, for which cause many became weak, and sick, 
The Tabel of the Lord what & how it bec●●●s a curs  and fala asleep, for the Tabel of the Lord (to wit the varios Kinds▪ & stors of provisions which the Eternal Power, the Father of the household doth daily produs, & giv freely forth, to feed and sustain Mankind, and every Cretur) becomes a trap, a snar a gin, & a Curs, even a Tabel of Devils unto, & in such as eat, & drink thereof in excess, to the satisfaction of the carnal mind, & the inordinate desyrs of the flesh. And as concerning the fellowship, & conversation of Devils, it was springing up amongst them, and therefore the apostle exhorted them to whom he wrote to have no fellowship with the unfruitfal works, and workers of darkness, saying that it was even a shame to speak of those things which were done of them in secret, but all things reprovabel (said he) âr mâd manifest by the Lijf.  
Which cursed Spirit of Apostasy having thus taken plàs, & Rooting in, & amongst them in the Apostels' days, hath grown, and spread itself in, and over all Christendom, which hath rendered Christendom (in their Military, Civil, & Ecclesiastical Powers) to be the Throne, & Seat of Iniquity, of Belzebub, the Man of sin, a habitation of Devils, the hold of every Foul & No● ysom Spirit, a Cag of every unclean & hatful Bird, which must now Receiv the Reward of Devils, even Destruction, and perdition from the presence of the Lord & from the glory of h s pur pour who is now risen in his holy Tempel to shakebag terribly the Heavens & the Earth, not only in Christendom, but in all nations, that so what is shaken may be removed, and that which cannot be shaken may remain, and shyn forth in its pur, natural, and proper glory, and Beauty, & all the works of God become as a well form harp with every string wound up to its du, & proper pitch, on which the Lord God may forever Delyt to màk sweet Melody unto himself, & they in him forevermôr.  
So that this Spirit of Apostasy, & falling away from the true christian faith, & life took plàs, & rooting, first in the Elders, & teachers of the flock, which cursed seed grew, & spread it  in, and throuh them, over all Christendom, the whole being on's comprehended in the Church of Rôm, & subjected under that falls head, universal, Bishop or Pôp (so called) and took hold and brouht forth its cursed fruits among all Nations, Kindred's, Tongu's, & Peepel, of every Ranks, degree & order from the highest to the Lowest, & hath had its Rooting, Growth, & Fullness, even in a most abominabel mystery of Iniquity Corrupting the whole Body of Christendom so that in stead of being a pur chaste virgin, fit to be married to the Lamb, and become his faithful Spous, she became a defiled strumpet, & even in her beginning bruised the Breasts of her virginity, by harkening to, and obeying the voys of the old Serpent, that adulteros Spirit in her, & so became a harlot, and grew to be the Mother of harlots and abominations of the Earth, with whom the Emderors, Kings, Prinses, & Rulers, & Peepel of all Ranks, and Degrees, Malipiero, & Female have comited Spiritual fornication, and been mâd drunk with the cup of her Abominations, and she hath sit as A queen upon many waters, which are Peepels, Kindred's, Tongu's, & Nations, being màd drunk with the Blood of the Profets, Saints, & Martyrs of jesus, even in her skirts is found the Blood of all that have been slain upon the fàs of the Erth.  
Thus this cursed Seed of the Serpent having taken plàs and Rooting did gradualy grow, and spread its self daily: and as it grew, spread, and prevailed, so the true pur Seed of God, towit, the Seed Christ in Màl & Femâl, was oppresed, kept under & brouht into Bondag, & as the cursed fruits of the Seed of the Serpent appeared, & were brouht forth, so the blessed fruits of the true pur Seed of God, the truly Noble plant of God's Renown in mâl & Femâl withered, & decayed, and that pur fresh appearans of the truly excellent Glory which was (in mesur) as a dew from the Lord God of heaven upon the Church of the Romans, did by degrees, depart, and utterly whither away, throuhout Christendom.  

The Apostasy first entering the falls teachers (thó on's trû having freely received) from them over spewed the body.  So that where as in her virginity, the Elders & teachers were tender, & cârfulover the flock of God, to whom the câr thereof was comited, not by constraint but wilingly, not for filthy Luker but of a ready mind not as Lords over God's heritag, but as Holy & good exampels to the flock, freely communicating their Spiritual things, & partaking in lov of the Peepels carnal things, who having food, & raiment had learned therewith to be content, yea Holy Paul wrouht with his hands, that so the Gospel myt not be Burdensome or chargabel to the Peepel.  
But that covetoes Spirit (which is the root of all evil) being thus crept in, and having taken plàs in some, there soon appeared such amongst them who were not wiling to communicate freely of what they had freely received of God, but throuh covetoes practices, souht to màk a gain of the flock, going in the way of Balaam for gifts, and rewards, having men's Persons in admiration because of Advantag embracing this present World, loving to have the preheminens, and so being fallen under the Spirit of deceit in themselves, grew daily worses, and became deceivers of others, & by good words, and fair speeches deceived the hearts of the simpel, causing many others to bow, and submit to their covetoes ends, and to follow their wicked, and pernitios ways, by reason of whom the way of truth was evil spoken of, which cursed Spirit taking hold of the flock also, many appeared who would not endur soünd Doctrine, but after their own lusts got to them selves heap● of sals Teachers, turning away their ears from truth unto fabels; And so it come to pass by degrees, that such as refused to answer their covetoes desyrs, and to put into their months, they prepared war against them counting them enemies to the ministry of Christ, & to be against the propagation of the gospel, & such as bòr Testimony against, & refused to follow their Pernicios' ways & Practices, were counted Erroneous, & Enemy's to the church, & good order, & so truth, & the followers thereof, got the Nams of Error, & heresy, Non conformists, & disorderly Persons; And Deecit & Error, & the Practisers thereof assumed to themselves the nams' of holy church, true Christians, & ministers of Christ, & in their own fallen wisdoms set up On amongst them, as chief Father Overseer or universal Bishop, whos successors were, & still are called, Christ's Vicars, Peter's successors, head of the church, and Póps, who's Personal seat is ROM, but his spiritual seat the Peepels, Kindred's, Tongu's, & Nations, who in the whole Body of them called the Clergy throuhout Christendom, are the woman, that great City, that hath & yet Doth rul over the Kings of the Earth, & so proceeded to erect Counsels, and Synods, & in them to make many unryteos and Antichristian Laws, & Decrees, which they call Spiritual, Holy, & Canonical Orders of Holy Church, imposing their own commands, & inventions upon the Peepel as the Commands of God, & Holy Church, assuming to themselves (in their fallen Wisdom) Power to bind & loose, to set up, & put down Powers & things, both in heaven & in Earth, & to retain, & remit the sins of the Peepel in their own wills for Money, & Dishonest gain, & such as refused conformity to their wicked Orders, Carnal laws, Commands, Canons, & Devilish injunctions, they cast forth as Heritics suffering none to buy or sell, but such as would bow under their Spiritual wikednese, & receiv their Idolatros mark in their hands, or on their forheds, & thes their proud, Antichristian, jezabelish, Luciferian practices have reached all Christendom, mâl, & femâl, from the lowest to the highest of you, & your predecessors in government, causing Emperors, Kings, Prinses & Potentats, to bow down to the sôls of her feet, deposing, & disposing of Powers, Potentats, Crowns, & Kingdoms, at their own wills, and pleasures thereby falsely and blasphemosy pretending, to trampel upon the Powers, Pomp, & Glory of this World, whilst themselves are delighting, affecting, & living at eas in, the sensual lusts, Pride & pleasures thereof to the highest degree.  
And so they proceeded to set Bounds, & limits to Congregations, caling them Parishes, erecting houses with steepels, & Croses on them, & Bells, baptised in them, falsely & ignorantly caling them Churches, appointing, Arch & inferior Bishops, Priests, Curates, with several other Kinds of Hyrlings over them appointing them great Revenus, Stypends, & yearly Incoms, by Church lands, gleab lands, tyths, taxes, easter reckon, offer, sprinkling of Infant's Churching of women, Marriages, Burials, & Prayers for the Deed, Dirges & Masses for Redemption of souls out of Purgatory, Confession of sins, Smoak-pennys, Indulgenses, Bulls, & Pardons etc. With many other Antichristian ways & inventions to make, Marchandys of the bodies, & souls of the Peepel throuhout Christendom.  

The elergys' spiritual weapon's of wickedness failing, they fly to the carnal weapons of the Magistrates.  But when they found that their own spirtual laws Canons, & hellish church orders were not of for'rs enuf to keep all in subjection to their carnal orders and Inventions in Matters of Religion, & worship, and to answer their covetoes; and greedy desyrs after Money, tyths, and large yearly Incoms they Addresed themselves to the Potentats, Kings, Prinses, and Rulers of the Earth requiring their help, and Assistants, pretending that they thereby would be servisabel to God, & holy church, furtherers of the propagation of the Gospel, good Countenansers, Patrons, & Incoragers, of the Ministers of Christ etc.  
Whom they met with in the twylyt of the evening of the Black, & Dark nyt of Apostasy, as so many young men void of understanding, who by their good words, fair speeches, & pretences were easily drawn to go after her, as Oxen to the slauhter, & fools to the corection of the stocks, making dyvers unreasonabel, Penal, wicked, Antichristian & bloody cruel laws, and statutes, with cursed Inquisition courts, to for'rs all to a conformity, to their Antichristian, Idolatros Canons, Institutions, Inventions, Injunctions, & Cursed Practices, in matters of Religion & church worship, which are Extant, and upon Record unto this day, for which they Rewarded the Potentats, Kings, and Rulers of the Earth with the Nams of Defenders of the faith, etc. who also received dyvers of them into their counsels to sit, & negotiate with them, about the spiritual Affairs of holy church (falsely and blasphemosly so called, pretending thereby to bring all into unity, & uniformity to the true Christian Church, Faith, & Practice, with which come in the treading the holy city under foot, and the Prophesying of the witnese in Sak-cloth, and the flit of the woman into the wilderness, and so it come to pass that if any did bear Testimony against their Apostate, Antichristian ways, and Practices, or Refused to be conformabel to their Invented Laws, Commands, and Canons in Matter of Religion, and worship they were summoned to appear at their spiritual courts (so called) and if after three times summonings or appearans, they would not deny the truth, & conform to their church orders, and satisfy their covetoes desyroes, they proceeded gradualy to censur, Fyn, cast out or Excommunicate them as heritics, ordering that none should buy or sell, eat or drink with them, turning them over to the worldly, or secular Powers of the Earth to deal with them  to the cruel, Antichristian, unmanly, Inhuman & Bloody Laws & statutes, which in such cases they had (lyk bruit beasts, not Men) mâd, & provided to wit the Emperors, Kings, Prinses, & Ruler's throuhout Christendom, who have been as cruel, Unnatural, beastly, & bloody in the execution of them, on thousands of God's Dear Innocent ôns, as they were blindly zealoes, & Beastly in making of them, spoiling many families of their goods, cruelly dealing with others in their persons, by bonds, imprisonments, cruel rackings, torturings, & banishings, secretly, & openly Murdering, & killing the innocent Saints, Martyrs, & faithful witnese of jesus by hanging, & burning, with dyvers other ways of open, & secret cruelty & murder, the cry of all which cruelty, blood & Murder of the Innocent, hath piersed the heavens, & entered into the ears of the Lord God Omnipotent, who is now risen in his holy plas, & causing the vengeans of his Tempel to taken hold of all his, & his dear, oppresed, cruelly tortured & murdered Innocent peepels, Unnatural, bloody and cruel adversaries, and to aveng all the oppressions, cruelties, and Innocent blood, of his harmless lambs and Saints, on them that dwell upon the Earth from the least to the greatest of them, even upon this present age and generation.  
And here it may be noted how this old Serpent, which goeth upon its belly, hath (throuh ages, & generations in those called Priests, Levits, spiritual men, and the Clergy) conformed, and transformed itself, unto any thing, and into any form and likeness (except the life, and Power of godliness, in to which it can never come) provided they myt have the nations, and Rulers of the Earth, as beasts, and asses for them to rid on and their treasures, and fruits of their labours to be at their command, to feed, & pamper their bells.  

The World is the  Who, the Spirit of truth in & throuh the Holy Men of God, Profets, Christ & apostles, said wer grievos Wolus, such as mâd their their God, making again of the flock, 
would still & so are its Ministers the same they ever were, & so many receiv the same nams' now from the same Spirit.  exercised in covetoes practices, going in long Robs, loving to be called of men Master, and to have the greetings in the market plas, & the uppermost Rooms at Feasts, such as did say, & not do, teaching for Doctrine the tradiditions of Men, Hipocryts, whited walls, painted sepulkers, such as teach for her, and Devyn for money, greedy dumb dogs, that cannot bark, loving every on his gain from his quarter, preparing war against such as put not into their mouths, filthy Dreamers, that defyl the flesh, runnng greedily in the error of Balaam for gifts, & rewards, spots in their Feasts of charity feeding themselves without fear, clouds without Water, carried about with Wynds, trees who's fruit withereth, twys Deed, and plucked up by the Roots, Raging waus of the Sea foaming out their own shame, wandering stars to whom the blackness of darkness is reserved for ever.  
When Israel of old in the wilderness turned their Backs upon the God of their salvation, this spirit in Aaron, and those confederate with him, complys with them, and makes A Calves, and they said thes be thy Gods o Israel which brouht thee out of the land of Egypt, and built an Altar to it, and yet proclaiming, and pretending to make A feast to the Lord sitting down to feed, and pamper their bells together, and rising up to play, and when Israel in the laind of Canaan, revolted from the Lord to serve the Idol Gods of the heathen, this old Serpent in the Priests, & Levits, conforms there unto, exercising the several forms, & Manners of Idolatros worship, to the several sorts of Ydols, and Images provided they may nat sail of provision for their bells when Micah got à Reliv a Teraphim, an Ephod, A graven, & Molten Imag to erect an Idolatros way of worship in his own family, he wants not à Levit to excercies à worship there unto, provided he may have ten shekels by the year, Asuit of Apparel, & provision for his Belly, and when jeroboam mad Calus, & sit them up in Dan, & Bethel, he wanted not enuf to be Priests to exercijs a form of worship to them, provided they may not fail of provision for their bells, and when ydol Temples, & Images were Erected, for the worship of Baal, if Achab, and jesabel will have eight hundred & fisty Priests to exercies à worship therun to, they readily Conform, provided they may daily eat, & Drink at jesabels' tabel, & when Israel took up an Imagination of A Queen of heaven, they want not enuf of those called Priests, spiritual men, & devyners to Exercies a worship to her, provided they may have the Cáks, Meat, & Drink offerings which are baked & offered to her, to feed, & pamper their bells.)  
And when the spirit of Apostasy took hold on the gentiles Or Romans, turning their ears away from truth unto fabels; this old Serpentyn spirit provided them heaps of falls teachers, provided they may màk a gain of them, & get filthy lucre by them, & exercies Lord ship, & Dominion over their Persons estates, faith, & conscienses, who's Practice hath been for ages, and generations Past, throuh the Apostasy to this day, to prepar war against such as put not into their mouths, & to spoil the goods, whip, Banish, Torture, Burn, and hang the Persons, of the Innocent, who in the spirit & Power of the Lord have born testimony against their ways of Idolatry, deceit, covetoes Practices, Proud, and Bloudthusty spirits.  
And when Henry the vl of that name, so called, King of England, mád a breach upon that cursed Idolatros sea of the Roman ecclesiastical Power, & threw of the Pops supremacy, they (in words and outward profession) cast it of also, & lyk unnatural children called their Mother the Whore of Róm, swearing Allegians, & Supremacy to the King, & receiving their inductions into their Spiritualy wiked Plases, Orders, & Profits from him, & his Substitutes, teling their God in their Prayers, that in all Cases, & over all Persons, as well Ecclesiastical as temporal the King is supreme head, & Governor, he confirming them in their Church, & gleab lands, tyths, & yearly Stypends. & Revenus to feed, & pamper their Bells.  
And when Mary his next Successor come into the Thrón, & turned all as it were back again, than they fased quit about, with the Dog to their own vomit submiting, & conforming to that which they had in word, profession & outward Practice denied, & cast of, viz. the Póps' supremacy, persecuting, & burning such as Heritics, who for Consciens sak towards God could not conform thereunto, She securing to them their yearly Incoms to feed serve & pamper their God, which was their Bells.  
And when Elizabeth her next Successor aros, than they turned quit about again, disgorging the vomit which  they had re-eaten, swearing allegians & Supremacy unto her, teling their God in their Prayers, that she, the Queen, was in all cases, and over all persons as well Ecclesiastical as Civil, supreme head & Governor, He securing, & confirming to them their provision for their Bells. And when the Parliament which was in the Reyn of Charles the first of that Nam so called King of England, mád a defensyv War against the said King.  
The said Parliament making provision for their Bells erecting a Committee to provyd augmentations, & yearly Stypends some of 50 some of 100 pound, or mor, and laying 2 or 3 Parishes somtyms together, that they myt have where with to maintain them in pride & eas, & pamper their Bells, they in words, & outward Profession, and Practice, cast of not only the Tóp, & his Supremacy, but also submit to lay asyd the ûs of their Servis-book of Common Prayers, Organ Pyps, and other Music, Singing Men and Boys, Gowns, Flatcaps, Surplises, & Tippets, and ras even their King also out of their Prayers, stirring up the Peepel to go forth to war against him, as to the help of the Lord against the myty.  
And when Oliver Cromwell their Servant had grasped the military power in to his hands, & there with wrested; the Power of the three Nations out of the Parliaments hands, (who was as the little Horn spoken of by Daniel the Profet) he providing for their bells, they in outward show & practice, cast of not only Pop, & King but Parliament also, and own and address themselves to him, and his son, as their Lord Protector, Sereen Hy-nes, with dyvers other flattering, & Blasphemos Nâms, and titles; And when those called the long Parliament come into their seats again, they fell in again with them, casting of their former Master, & Sereen Lord Protector.  
And when Charles the II. Son of Charles the I was by another Parliament called in & restored to the Thrón, & Dominion of his Father, he providing for their Bells, they Readily swear Allegians, & Supremacy to him, & get their on Surplises again & fall to reading their Book of Common Prayer, and bow, and cringe to their Idolatros Altars, & sing & Pyp, & play on their Music in their worship, & if he will have them go bakagain, and be reconcysed to their Mother, whom themselves call the whore of Rôm, they will submit rather than to endanger their Persons, or loose their provision for their Bells.  
Yet further this old Serpent if it find or see away to have as, & provision for the Belly, by a free Contribution, hath and can appear as a Pastor of a separate or gathered Congregation, & in words, and profession declare against conformity to the World its ways, and worships, and impur communions.  
Yet further seeing a way to go from plàs to plâs and have back, and Belly freely provided for, it hath, & doth transform itself as an Angel of lyt, or Minister of righteousness, appearing in the Assemblies of the Saints, and Children of the lyt, intruding into the Declaration of things which they have not seen, felt, tasted, nor experiensed in themselves, talking of the Salvation of God, of Christ, of the lyt, Spirit, and Power of God in the inward parts, but by such as truly dwell and walk in the lyt, life, wisdom, and Power of God, are all the ways and workings of that old Serpent in such, seen, felt, discerned, and judged, who are the little foxes that hurt the vyns with the tender grâps and their mouths (by the Power and Wisdom of God) must, and shall be stopped.  
But in all ages (sins the entrans of transgression) such as have been called, & sent forth by the Lord, appearing in the evident demonstration of the pur Power, and spirit of God to declare his mind, & will unto Peepels, the spirit, and power of darkness in Rulers, Teachers, and peepel could never bear with such, but have màd a prey of them, counting them as not worthy to have a being, turners of the world upsyd down, Pestilent fellows, blasphemers such as the land could not bear their words, suffering at their hands moking, Scorn, Contemt, Derision, Bonds, Imprisonment, Banishment, Spoiling of goods, whipping, stoning, racking, Torturing, Crucifying, Hanging & burning.  
And now the switnese prophesying in sak-cloth being near hand ended, & the spirit of life in mesur entered into the witnese of God, & they standing on their own feet appearing in the lyt, life, spirit, & power of God to warn, and turn Peepel from the evil of their ways, from the darkness to the lyt, from the Power of Satan to know, and obey the lyt, Christ that spirit, and power of God in them, the whole body of sin & Death in the general, and in each particular is moved heerat, & this causeth sickness to seize on the head, and pain, & hevynes to fill heart, and is as Mortal, and Incurabel darts in the liver, causing the old Serpent, the spirit, and power of darkness in the whole body to plung as Leviathan in the sea, who in mesur already hath, and daily mor & morshal, make it to boil as a pot of ointment, this is as a flying roll with the curs entering into the house of the thief the adulterer, and the whore, causing the keepers thereof to trembel, and the strong men to bow themselves, head, & , Branch, & Root, in the household of wickedness even all sorts, have a mouth open against such as are truly sent of God about this work.  
The Potentats, King, Prinses, & Rulers of the darkness of this present world may say, if peep●l be brouht to Christ the lyt, life, spirit & Power of God in them, the gift of God, of whom the Scripture saith, that he is given of God to be King, Ruler & Lawgiver to, & in his Peepel, Then they will come to Know the la of the spirit, & life in their in ward parts, which sets free from the law of sin, and death & to be fellow heirs with Christ of that Kingdom which is pur, Eternal, & Immortal which fadeth not away, and to Rein as Kings upon the Earth, sitting with Christ on his throne, swaying the sceptre of righteousness over all his enemies in them, in that Dominton which is living, & Eternal, clothed with that Rob which is pur, & undefyled, crowned with a Royal Dyadem, of pur, & perfect glory & beauty, unto such our Crowns, Sceptres, dignities, Laws, and Rul will be rendered burdensome, and usles, unless it be as a scourg amongst such who are mor brutish than beasts, so that our best, and safest way will be, to taken that wholesome counsel, long sins given by honest David, that man after gods own heart, to kiss the Son, to bow, & be subject to Christ the lyt, Wisdom, & Power of God in our own hearts, & Inward Parts, that so in this the day of the Kindling of his wrath we may not perish, with all the workers of Iniquity, and to lay asyd our fading crowns, Robs, Sceptres, & emty titles of vanishing honour, & to sit even with his little despised flock, to whom the Everlasting Kingdom is bequeathed by Christ the eternal Father, & fountain of life, wisdom & Eternal Power, and wait to feel his pur power in us who is King of Kings, & Lord of Lords, that so we may come to have an Inheritans with them that are sanctified in that Kingdom which is never fading, and to wear that Crown, and Rôb, which is living, and pur, in that Dominion, honour, and glory which Man can neither giv nortak away.  
Thos called the Clergy, the whole body of them, even all sorts of teachers, in all forms to the highest in name, without the power, may say, if peepel be brouht to Christ, the lyt & life in them, which hath Inlytened every ôn that cometh into the world, the gift of God, of whom the scriptures say, that he is given of God to be a witness in Peepel, even his everlasting covenant, in the heart, & inward parts, of which all who partak come to know the Lord from the least to the greatest, such need not to teach ón another, for the Lord, that spirit of truth in them, teacheth them, & leadeth them into all truth, the holy Anointing which giveth the true knowledge of all things, as the Apostel said, so that all who abid in it, & it in them, need not any man to teach them but as the same Anointing teacheth them, which is the living fountain set open in the heart & inward parts, for all to come freely unto, without money, & without pries.  
Such will not, come to us and giv us of the fruits of their labour, tyths, or large sums of money by the year, to hear us say our invented prayers, & to talk to them of that with we our selus rytly understand not, & are out of the life, & Practice of, having that most sure word of Prophecy in themselves, which is the most sure, and infallibel teacher, and so we may shut up our mashouses, or shop doors, and cease ringing our Bells, for our trads of dishonest gain will whither àway, and come to nouht.  
The great Generals, Commanders, & Officers in hostil, & military Affairs may say, If Peepel be brouht to Christ, the Lyf, Lyt, and everlasting Covenant of God in them, of whom the Scriptures of truth say, he is given of God the Leader and Commander in Peepel, the Captain and author of Eternal Salvation, who's Commands are not grievoes, who leads, and Establishes his Peepel in pleasant ways of Lyt, Lyf, Lov, Peas, & righteousness, who's banner and standard, is lov, meekness, truth, and righteousness. Then the enmity in Peepel ôn against another will come to be destroyed, and they reconciled to God, & ôn unto another, such will not come to list themselves under our standards, or fit under other banners, & be at our Commands, to murder & destroy ôn another, to serve the lusts, pride, & cursed, ambitios wils of our Cruel oppressing Masters, the Emperors, Kings, Prinses, & Rulers of the Earth, under falls pretences, of serving God & their Country, who's practice hath been, & still is, to make great & fair Promises to get peepel in to their servis, and then make it Death, either to quit their servis, or demand the performen of what they promise.  
So that we may throw our Commissions of Array into the fyr, & beat our swords, & other instruments of Blood, Murder, & Cruelty, into plouh shars, & pruning hooks, & learn to make ûs of them as such, for our cursed tràds will die & whither away also.  
Thos called Judges, Sheriffs, Majors, Bailiffs, Justises of the pease, Doctors in the law, Counsellors, Advocats, Solicitors, Atturnys, Clerks, & Scrybs, with all their dependencies may say, If Peepel come to be turned from the Darkness to the lyt, & obey Christ the wisdom, & Power of God in them, of whom the Scripture saith, that all Judgement is committed unto him by the Father, who is the wonderful counselor, the Advocate, that pleadeth the cause of his Peepel, & writeth their nams' in his Book of life, who is no Respecter of Persons, the habitation of who's Throne is righteousness, rewarding every ôn according to their works, who leads all, who are counselled by him in the pur paths of truth, pease, lov, & righteousness: Then Peepel will come to do to ôn another as themselves would be dôn unto, & to be a law unto themselves, to bear ón with another, choosing rather to suffer, then to do wrong or seek advantages by outward laws, ôn against another, & that cursed, covetoes, greedy Spirit of enmity in peepel, ôn against another, & after the enjoyments of ôn another, will cease. Such will not wear out their bodies, vex, & torment, their Spirits, waist & consume their estates, to attend on our Throns', & seats of bribery, injustis, extortion, & oppression, & giv us large, & unreasonabel fees to pervert justis, who's practice hath been, & still is, instead of ending peepels differenses in truth, & righteousness & reconcyling them together in pease, & lov, to màk them by far the mor at enmity, and irreconcylabel ôn to another, inventing ways to lengthen out their contentios law suits, by removing them from Court to Court, from City to Country in deceit, & unryteos pretences, and inventions, called Writs of Error, Appeals, Habeas Corpuses etc. Especially if the plaintiffs, and defendants besuch as have Estates to answer, and supply their greedy and covetoes desyrs with Brybs, and large and unreasonabel fees.  
And so we may lay asyd our flat caps, Robs, & ruf garments of deceit, and cast our Books, and Libraries of la cases into the fyr.  
And Peepl being brouht into the pur bond of the everlasting Covenant, come to be so Knit, and united together in lov & faithfulness ôn to another, that there will be no need of any outward bills, bonds, or Obligations to make them honest, & faithful to do the thing that is just, & equal òn to another & so our wicked trads will whither away also, & come to nouht.  
Those called Doctors, tutors, fellows, and Masters of arts in schools, colleges, and universities, (in that learning which stands in that Spirit; Power, & wisdom which is foolishness with, and enmity against God) may say, If Peepel be hrouht to Christ the lyt power, & wisdom of God in them & to be tauht, & tutored thereby, than they will come to learn the blessed art of denying all ungodliness, & worldly lusts, & to liv soberly & ryteosly in this present world, & to speak the pur languag', & to know, & hold the mysteries of faith in a pur Consciens, and Read the book sealed with seven seals, which nether the learned or unlearned, withal their tongus and arts amongst us never could or shall be abel to understand or read, and their seed, and offspring by, their holy Exampels, walking in the pur fear, life, and wisdom of God  them, will come to be trained up in the sâm.  
Such will not need to come Or send their children to our Schools Colleges, or universities to be tauht to Read in books, of feigned stories, ling Fabels, filthy, unsavoury corrupt & corrupting words, & to act their parts on stages in Comedys, & Tragedys, or to acquyr degrees in learning of those tongus and arts, standing in that wisdom which is Enmity against God.  
So that we may shut up our Schools, Colleges, and university doors, and cast our filthy books of liberal arts into the fyr, for our wicked tràds of corrupting Mankind will die, and whither away also.  
Thos called doctors of Physic, Surgeons, & Apothecaries who are members of that corrupt body of wickedness acting their parts in the Devil's craft writing their receipts in Latin and putting Latin nams', upon the simpels of which they make their compounds, & salus etc. keeping the peepel thereby ignorant of the nature & virtue of what they administer unto them, having and using ways to lengthen the continuans of peepels distempers, somtyms abating, somtyms increasing then; putting large & unreasonabel Rât's upon things with cost little or nothing sav gathering, especially if their patients have wherewith to supply their greedy & Covetoes desyrs of money.  
The ries & continuans of who's, crafts was & is the intemperans inchastity & inordinacy of Peepel. So all thes may say, If Peepel be brouht to Christ the lyt, & life of God in them, the good physician which purgeth, & cleanseth from all filthiness of fle●h, & spirit, & leads all, who are led by him, in ways of temperans sobryety, chastity, & in the fear of the Lord than they will come to be Inhabitants of that city, which shall say they are not sick, & the Lord to be come the health of their Countenanses, & their God; and abiding therein, the ground of all Diseases, & distempers, in Body, soul & Spirit is kept down in peepel. Such will not have need to come to us with their Urins, & giv us large sums of money for our Advys, & Counsel, to maintain us in pride & eas, or to make ûs of our salus, & deceitful Compounds: & so our deceitful trads will die, and whither away also.  
And all sorts of Merchants, & traders in Ships, Shops, wâ●houses, Ins, Victualinghouses, Fayrs, & Markets may say, If peepel be brouht to Christ, the lyt & everlasting covenant of life in them, & be tauht & led by him in them, than they will come to taken càr for nothing, to taken no thouht what they shall eat, drink or put on, but cast all their câr upon the Lord, who eternal power, & wisdom daily produseth, sufficient to feed & sustain every cretur, & so to become as ôn household or family, children of ôn Father heirs together in & with Christ of the ôn Inheritans, caling nothing their own, enjoying all things in the pur fear, life, lov, & wisdom of God, as in ôn common ryt, or interest.  
Such will not have need to make ûs ' of our deceitful Inventions of money, to buy, sell & make Marchandyz of the gists, & several stors of the house of God, which all flow from the ôn gist, which he freely gav to the children of men, without respect to Persons, neither will such frequent or make ûs of our Ships, Shops, Ins, victualing-houses, fairs or markets.  
And so we may lay asyd our ships, & shut up our shops, wâr-houses, Taverns, and victualing-houses, and cease frequenting our fayrs, and Markets, for no Man will buy our wârs any Mor, and so our trads of deceit, & oppression will die and whither away also.  
Thos called Landlords, who in the spirit of the world have raked great quantities of the Earth into their hands may say. If peepel be bourht to Christ the lyt & way of pease, & salvation in them, then having food and raiment, they will learn there with to be content, & not Covet or desyr to grasp farms into their hands to serve their own particular interests, & to spend their tym in sweeting toil, càr, and labour, as under the curs, to giv us large, and yearly rents by sums of money, to manitain us in pride, lusts, eas & fullness, so that our Lands must ●therly unstok-ed, & until-ed, or we must let such us ' it, who will only let us have a part of the produs thereof with them, for our necessary supplies of food, and raiment, and so our Lordly, Covetoes, and oppressing way of farming Lands, for great, and unre sonabel sums of money by the year, will die, and whither away also.  
Thos called by-way thieus, & Robers may say, if Peepel be brouht to Christ the lyt, the strong Tower of sasty & eternal salvation in them, then the us ' of money will come to be laid Asyd by them, and as for food & raiment, if we be Really in want thereof, the lov of Christ in them will make them wiling to supplies, our real necessities, so that if we come to them on the by ways, filver, and gold they will have non, and if we should taken their  they rid up on, or  from their backs, it would be an unkyndnes offered to such as are really wiling to feed & clothe such as are really in want, and necessity, nether can we likely pass long with such things without being discovered, and so become lyabel to shame, and suffer the stroke of Justis from the hand of the Magistrate for the same, And therefore it will be mor manly, & honorabel for us to fall into some way-of honest and moderate labour, that so we may eat our own bred, and wear our own  in Peas, and quietness without condemnation in our own conscienses or fear of shame by the stroke of justis.  
Thos called way going Peepel, idle and sturdy beggars, may say, if peepel be brouht to Christ, the lyt, and wisdom of God in them, than alth o the bowels of the lov of Christ in them constrain them to do good unto all as need and necessity requireth, yet if we come to beg of them having bodies abel to work, they may justly say unto us that such as will not labour ouht not to eat, and may offer us labour, and food, which if we refus the ôn, they may justly with hold from us the other.  
So that we shall be forced to lay asyd our idle, dronish trád of beging and either to work or starv, which if we do our bloods will be upon our own heads.  
The whole body of the world which lies in wickedness, may say if peepel be brouht to Christ the lyt, wisdom Power, & eternal salvation of God in them, than the end of the world even of all things will be come upon them as it was on the apostles, & Saints in their days, and all the many ways & wicked inventions, and Practices which have had their Rys & Continuans to this day, throuh the entrans of sin & trangression by the first Adam, will be ended & finished, and Eternal righteousness brouht in, and established in Mankind, and Mankind in it, & all Rúl, Authority & Power, it standing in the spirit, & Power of the old Serpent put down; and destroyed, & the whole creation delivered from the bondag of corruption into the glorios liberty of the Sons of God, and all things in heaven, & Earth, visibel, & invisibel reconciled to God in him, & every Knee màd to bow, and tongue ' to confess to him, to the glory, & Prays of God the eternal Father, & Pur fountain of lyt, lov, wisdom, glory, and Dominion, who is in, throuh, and over all (God blesed for ever, this is the God whom many have waited for, and this is the salvation expected by him, and for ever blesed be his Nàm, as none ever did, so nether have they waited on him in vain, nor been ashamed of their hòp in him, for according to his promise declared, and recorded by, & throuh the holy Profets, he hath now set to his hand again the second tym, for the redemption and salvation of himself, his own oppresed seed in the ends, or inhabitants of the Earth, not only in Mankind, but even in the whole creation, who worketh so as non can hinder, and shall not be discouraged till he hath set righteousness in the Earth, surly his salvation is nigh unto them that fear him, which shall cause the Pur Lyt, knowledge, and glory of the Lord to overspred, fill, and dwell in the whole creation, and mercy and truth to meet together and righteousness, and Peas to kiss and imbrás each other, and truth to spring out of the Earth, and righteousness to look down from heaven, and everlasting joy to rest upon the heads of all the Sons, and dauhters of Zion, and all cause of sighing and sorrow to flee away forever mor.  
But to proceed, this cursed seed of the Serpent took Root, & the mystery of Iniquity hath abounded, & over spread all Christendom, the abomination which maketh desolate, was & still is standing where it ouht not, abominabel covetousness, Pride, Cruelty, Oppression, Idolatry, & shedding the blood of the innocent saints of God, hath been, & still is Practised in thee O Christendom even with a bold & impudent fàs, which hath long cried aloud, how long Lord holy & true, dost thou not judge, & aveng' our blood on them that dwell on the Earth, & notwithstanding all the Abominations, Oppressions, Idolatry, murders, & great provocations against the Lord, which ye, & your predecessors have been, & still are so openly, & impudently found guilty of, yet exceeding long and large hath been, the Patiens, & forbearans of God towards them & you, & many have been the Fatherly warnings, chastysments, & wholesome counsels of the Lord towards them & you, but ye, & your predecessors are found mor abominably guilty of those abominations cruelties, oppressions, Idolatries, & shedding the blood of the Innocent, than the Jews of old were, for which the Lord màd ûs of your predecessors of the Roman Power, as instruments in his hand, to execute his just, & dreadful wrath, & vengeans on them & ye have not only moked Gods messengers, despised his word, misused his Profets, & Saints as they (towit the Jews,) did  you, but ye have màd & cruelly executed dyvers Antichristian, Cruel, bloody laws & statutes to keep them from coming amongst you, & to Murder, Kil, Burn, & destroy them if they open their mouths on the behalf of God, his truth, & righteousness, or bear their faithful testimony against the cruelty, oppressions, Idolatries, & shedding the blood of the Innocent, exhorting them to repent, & turn from your, & their evil, cruel, and abominabel ways, and Practice, which ye, & your predecessors were, and still are found guilty of.  
And so both they & you have returned unto God, & his dear saints, & servants (which he hath raised up, & many times sent amongst you in Lov, & mercy,) hatred for their lov, yea cruel torturings, & murdeings, even the worst of evil for their good will towards you, all which provokations, cruelties, murders & rebellious practised against the Lord in his dear precios innocent ôns, are Exceedingly heihtened & aggravated in you even to the highest pitch in regard that the have hard and have upon record  you in the Scriptures of truth, the many precepts, & commands of God, against such abomniabel ways, & practices, the many woes, Judgements, & dreadful Curses denounsed by God against all who are found guilty of them and the many Just and Ryteos plagu's, wrath and dreadful Judgements of God Executed on the ages, & generations passed  you, who were found guilty of the lyk abommations; but mor especially in regard that the Lord mâd your predecessors instruments, as an Iron rod in his hand to execute his Just wrath, & dreadful Indignation upon the Jews for the same sins and abominations, which your predecessors, & ye have been and still are found guilty of, and verily the day is now come, in which ye will find, that he is a God that changeth not but abides still the same as well in Power righteousness, wrath and justis, as in long forberans, patience, goodness, & Mercy.  
The apostles, & true Ministers of Christ, were not mâd so by men, nor sent forth in the will or by the approbation of Man, neither did they Minister forth from the Letter, what others had received, by their own acquired parts, learned at Schools, & universities for money, neither did they complain or address themselves to the Potentats, and powers of the Earth to mák laws to for'rs, & compel peepel to giv them tyths, great sums of Money or yearly Incoms for their preaching, or to defend them in their Doctrines, faith, Church Order, Holy, and Christian practices, which they held forth, and walked in, or to for'rs Peepel to conform thereunto upon pain of being fyned, imprisoned, racked, tortured, banished, hanged, burned, or cruelly put to Death, No, No.  
But they were called, & sent forth by the will, Power, and appointment of God the Father, & the Lord Jesus Christ, ministering forth freely, and with a ready mind, what they had freely received of God, throuh the Revelation of Jesus Christ the true Lyt, and gift of God in them; What they had seen, felt, handled, and tasted, of the grás, Eternal Word, & living pur Power of God in themselves, they preached forth, and declared to others, to the end that they also to whom they preached, myt have fellowship with them in the same, who's fellswship was in the Father, & in the Son Jesus Christ, they ministered forth according to the mesur of the gift, of the Spirit of the free grâs of Christ in them, they were tauht of God, and had learned of the Father, and there by mâd abel Ministers of the New Testament, the everlasting Covenant of God, & needed not outward laws of Man to for'rs Peepel, to maintain them or giv them Money for their preaching, but such as became obedient to the faith, and Christian practices, which they preached & walked in, the constraining Power thereof wrouht such a lov of God in them to whom they preached, which drew them forth in lov freely to communicate of their carnal substans to them, as their Needs, & necessities required, who having food, and raiment had learned therewith to be content: And the way and weapons which they took & used to defend their Holy Faith, Christian Doctrines and practices by, & to convins' gainsayers, and Herities, were not outward or carnal, not spoiling of goods, prisons, banishments, racks, hanging, burning, & other cruel ways of open, and secret Murder, but Holy & Spiritual, 
The saints weapons  even by the armour of righteousness on the ryt hand; and on the left, by arguments of sound truth, pur, and wholesome doctrines & Holy, harmless, innocent, and godly conversations; Nether was the end of their preaching, that Peepel should be ever learning & never abel to come to the knowledge of the truth, nor that Peepel should be only talking of God, 
The end of the true Ministers Preaching.  Christ and Holiness, and abid strangers, & enemies to, & ignorant of the lyt, life, Power, and Spirit of God, Christ, and godliness in themselves, but the end of their preaching was to bring Peepel to the knowledge, feeling, and obediens of the Spirit, pur power, and presence of God in themselves, and to be tauht thereby of God, which mesur of the Spirit of grâs in mâl & femàl, is the Spirit of truth which leadeth into all truth even the Holy anointing which teacheth all things, even the deep things of God, teling them to whom they preached, and wrote, that a mesur of the Spirit of grâs was given to every ón to profit with all, and that the Lord is that Spirit, they laboured to turn Peepel from the darkness to the lyt, from the power of Satan to the power, and Spirit of God in them, given to them by Christ the true Lyt, whom Holy Johon said, was the true Lyt, which inlyteneth every Man that cometh into the World and to turn Peepel from dumb Ydols, and Ignorant, Id latros, and Superstitios' ways & forms, to know, serve and obey the living and true God in them, even to present all perfect in Christ, whom truly to know, obey, & constantly to follow, is eternal life, salvation, happiness, pur rest, and peas forever mòr.  
But thy Clergy or Spiritual men (so called) even the whole body of them from head to foot, are found out of the Cal, Power, Doctrine, faith, order, Practice, Maintenans, & holy Conversation of the true Ministers of Christ, even in a spirit of Direct Opposition, & contrary tie to them, so that they being Ignorant of the call of God, have called, and sent forth ôn another in their Own wills, & appointments, and have run greedyly for gain & advantag, without being sent of God, and being gone from the Power of God to uphold and proved for them in their Minissty, and defend them in their Doctrines, faith, & practices, they have gone to the Powers of the Earth, who have mâd, Antichristian, & cruel laws to for'rs Manitenans from the Peepel for them, even from such as nether own nor hear him, and here in thes Babylonian Merchants have been mor cruel, and unreasonabel than all the other sorts of Babylonish Merchants, who cannot compel others to buy their wàrs, much les for'rs, others to pay for it, who have nethe● bouht or received it, who together all sorts of them are but a Den of thieus, & Robers in my Father's house, they come not in by t●e eternal door, to wit Christ, the lyt, wisdom & Power of God, & they must all be whiped out of the Tempel and overturned even root, and branch, their coming and work hath been, and still is, but to steal, murder, and destroy.  
That Spirit which hath and doth buy and sell the gifts of God, which do all flow from the òn gift, must perish with its money, out of the Bottomless pit it come, and thither it must return, the things of Cesar must perish with Cesar, but the things of God the former of all things must be ordered in his own pur wisdom, lyt & counsel: And as there must not be a Beget so ouht there not to be a drôn in Israel, and as that Spirit which would lay on daily tasks, and tâl of brik on others, is to be denied so also that spirit which would liv at eas in the flesh, upon the fruits of others labours, is to be rejected, all Mountains must now, be leveled, and all valys raised, and the pur, Plain, & pleasant path of wisdom, righteousness, & holiness, is that in which all the truly ransomed of the Lord must for ever dwell, and walk. This the Plain, & pur ' path in which the fool cannot err. This is the jewel, the pearl of Invaluabel Prys, the truly well becoming Ornament, which becometh the house of God for ever, to wit holiness, and as every cleansed tabernakel of the most by comes to savour, and shyn forth in this, so every ôn in in his Tempel will come truly to set forth his living pur, and eternal praises, and & appear to be really the lyts of the world, & the salt of the Earth, which all who loose the savour of come to be the very worst & most unprofitabel of Mankind, not withstanding they may profess or talk of hy things, where the true savour on's receved comes to be lost, the most stinking dunghill is to be preferred  such; MARK THAT.  
And further mor they being ignorant of the doctrine & faith of Gods elect which purifieth the heart, & worketh by lov, & keepeth the heart clean, they have ignorantly framed up a faith in their own fallen wisdoms, which they call their Creed, but cannot them selus giv a Rational account thereof to the bottom using therein Scripture Expresions, being ignorant of the mind of the Spirit of Christ in them that gay them forth.  
And having thrown asyd the true church-order which the A postels, & holy ministers of Christ walked in, & practised, they have mâd & invented to themselves, many Nâms, ranks, & orders in their own wills in their church, to wit, Pôps, Cardinals, Jesuits, Friars, Monks, Abbots, Nuns etc. with many mor, Putting the nams' of J●sus, & of Saints up on them, whilst they themselves are found strangers and emenies to the life of Christ, & the holy conversation of the saints, in themselves & in, others, and wanting the pur Power, & Demonstration of the Spirit of God in their Ministry, and practices to draw Peepels heart's to Imb●ás, & conform thereunto they have caused the potentats, & Powers of the Earth to mâk penal, & cruel laws & statutes to for'rs a conformity th●● unto, or else to spoil their goods, Imprison, banish, rack, hang, Burn, murder, & destroy their persons, under a falls pretense of their being Heritics, which ye O Potentats, Kings, Prinses, and Rulers throuh out Christendom, and your predecessors, have Unnaturally, & cruelly lyk Bruit beasts put in execution in an abundant mesur.  
Furthermor they being found naked of the true Christian clothing, which is the righteousness of Christ by faith in the lyt, Spirit, & Power of God, have in their wills Invented to them selves many strange; & foolish forms, & fashions of outward habit there by to cause the Spirits of Peepel to fall down under them, & giv worldly Honour, Respect, & Reverens unto them, which, are not of God. And being void of the Demonstration of the Power, & Spirit of God in the exercies of their worship, they have Dyvers invented garbs, vain, & foolish fits, Idolatros images, & pictures, several sorts of Music, with singing men, & boys, which tend only to pleas, & gratify, that Spirit in Peepel which is Enmity against God, & instead of teaching Peepel from the motion & Dictates of the Spirit of Christ in them, they pleas their vain ears with fabels & orations, which they in their fallen wisdoms have raked, & form to gether out of old histories, the write of heathen Poets, Philosophers, ancient Fathers, & Commentators with their own Imaginations from the Scriptures, with dyvers other feigned stories, lying sins, & wonders, all which Renders their worship ro be mor lyk unto Astag ' play rather than the true worship of God.  
And as for all other sorts of worshippers to the byest in Nâm Form and profession, even such as profess to dwell, & walk in the pur Eternal lyt, and life of God in them, thus saith the Lord God, all Assembling which are not in my pur Nâm which is lyt, & all Declarations, Invocations, or Intercessions which are not from the true, pur movings, and dictates of my put Four, & Spirit are but a stink in my Nostrils, though words of truth, yea true words may be uttered forth; Such are they who run without being sent by me saith the Lord, Thes are the offerers with strangfyr, this is the going up by steps unto the Altar of God, which discovereth the Nakedness, & the noys of the hammer in the building of the Tempel, which was forbidden, and the stretching forth of the hand to stay the Ark which was rewarded with Death, and althuôh such strangfyr Kindlers may for a tym, walk in the sparks of their own Kindling, yet in the end this must be their portion from me saith the Lord, even to lie down in sorrow. Thes are they who in Nam, Profession, & words, would seem to giv forth out of their earthen vessels the true treasure, which floweth from the streaming forth of the pur river of the water of life Eternal; Butar found only to be sailing in Galleys with Oars, and in gallant Ships driven with fires Wynds, artificial sails, and other cunning Artifices, & eloquent Oratory, framed in their own strength & wisdom, which as a pleasant Pictur they hold forth for others to behold, her & be affected with, in whom the mystery of iniquity is wound up to the highest pitch, who are even the most beautiful painted harlot, even Satan trans ormed as an Angelo lyt, appearing through them as Ministers of righteousness and life, who are really but the Ministers of sin, & Death, who's reward will be according to their works, but the least true birth of pur lyt & life can feel discern, taste, and savour the differens, though not abel to utter forth the same in words, and the day of the Lord which is now come will be upon all such cunning Artificers, & eloquent Orators, & on the Galleys, and gallant Ships in which they sail with all their painted pleasant Pictures, Their mouths must, & will be stopped, for all flesh must now be put to silence be●or the Lord, and the Lord alone exalted in this his glorios (yet most dreadful and terribel) day, in throuh, and over al.  
The vail of the Tempel must now be rend from the top to the bottom, even the vail of covering which is overall flesh must now be removed, no covering shall now be abel to hyd any from the Ay which is pur, but only what is of his own pur Power, & Spirit, the most bâs, weak, low & foolish things of God, must now be set a top of the highest Mountains, even upon the head of the most glorios, strong, & vvyse est of Men, Eternal Glory, & living pur praises be to his Nam alone who is worthy, overall forever mor.  
Further mor●they, to wit thy Clergy, or spiritual men (so called) o Christendom, being ignorant of, & alienated from the spirit of Christ in them which alo can màk a true separation from the world, and crucify the fpirit thereof, with the Affections, and lusts in màl, & femàl, they have erected to them felus fair, and sumptuos buildings, called Abbeys, Cloisters, Fryeries & Nunneries, compasing them about with hy walls, in habiting many together in them under a falls show, and pretense of separation from the world, its lusts wiked ways, and practices, and to be wholly devoted to the ervi of God all their days, whilst many of themselves liv there at eas ●n the flesh, lyk filthy drous, pa●●pering their bells daily, with delitios ●ar living in pleasures, and in the lu●●, and carnal desyrs of the flesh, & inordinate affections thereof, oftentyms secretly murdering the fruits of thôs carnal lusts, & pleasures which they exercies ôn with another.  
And being void of the true learning of the Father, which maketh men true Ministers of Christ, & ered from the Spirit of truth, which is the true Original of the Scriptures of truth, which only can open the mind of the Spirit, & Mystery of godliness therein declared; They have gôn to Schools, & Vniversitys, and there for Money have learned, & acquired, Parts, Tongus, & Arts in their own fallen Wisdom: And so have limited, fitness to be Ministers of Christ, & ability to teach others, only to such as by Bodily Pains, Study, & Industry have learned of men to speak or read, Hebrew, Greck, & Latin, etc. caling those the Original, & the letter of the Scriptures the Word of God, whereas the Word of God is that which lives, & abides for ever, near in the Mouth and in the heart that all may hear it, & obey it; And so having slain that just ôn in them, & crucified the Son of God a fresh unto themselves, & put him to open shame, by their Antichristian filthy, & abominabel Spritual whordoms, & Abominations. They, (Pylat lyk) set their Tongues, To wit, Hebrew, Greek, & Latin, abov the only true head Christ jesus the Lyt, Wisdom, & Power of God in màl & femâl; Who being crucified & slain & lying as Deed in a Sepulker in thee O Christendom, they (to wit the Clergy so called) ca us the Potentats, Prinses, & Rulers, to mâk bloody, & cruel laws the execution whereof became as a great stone upon the mouth of the sepulker, to keep him (if possibel) for ever from rising any mor in thee, & thy inhabitants, O Christendom, setting the Soldiers, your Military Power to watch, keep down, & destroy the least appearans of him in any.  
Further môr themselves & ye the Potentats, Kings, Prinses, & Rulers, & their and your Predecessors, being ignorant of the true Cros of Christ▪ which every true Christian ouht daily to taken up, & follow Christ in, which cross crucifyeth the flesh with the affections & lusts thereof in màl & femâl, & destroyeth that unnatural, & Blood thirsty Spirit of enmity which is in Mankind against God, & ôn another, ye have caused to be mád many flowish Croses of Gold, Silver, Bras, Iron, Waod, & Ston, which ye in your Idolatros Spirits, carry about you, hang, & sit up in your houses, & a rop of your Mal-houses or Idol Temples, & in your Courts ', Markets, Streets, & Hylas ways, to which Peelel both High, & Low, Rich & Poor, small & great, Màl & Femâl, have & yet do bow, & do Reverens unto them, And not knowing what the true Imag of God & Christ is, nor the virtue, & fellowship of his sufferings, by a Holy Conformity unto his Death, & participation of his pur Divyn Nature & life in the inward Man, living the life of God in this world in the daily exercies of true wisdom righteousness, and holiness, which renders all who truly know, and enjoy it, to be the true imag of God, and Christ Jesus, who was the express imag of the father, ye with your predecessors have màd, & caused to be màd a multitude of abominabel Idolatros images, and ydols in their, and your spiritual adulteros, abominabel, blasphemos, and idolatros hearts, and minds, to represent God, Christ, the spirit, angels, and saints, màd of gold, silver, bras, iron, wood, and stone after the manner of the ignorant, and idolatros heathen of old, which they, and you have caused to be set up in your hyh ways, Markets, Streets, Courts of judicatur, and plases of your idolatros worship, and set up, and hang in your houses, and carry about you, throuhout Christendom, filing the land with ydols, and pictures, and abominabel images of jelosy there by grievosly provoking the just, and ryteos Lord God omnipotent, to cause his fires wrath, indignation, and jelosy to smoke, & burn against you, having worshipped the works of your own hands, even that which your fingers have mâd, & the mean Man hath bowed down, even Mâl & Femâl, Rich & Poor, Bond & Free, Small & Great, and ye the Potentats, Kings, Prinses, & Rulers & great ôns have Debased your selves beforthem. THEREFORE WILL I NOT FOR GIV OR SPAR YOU, saith THE LORD GOD OMNIPOTENT.  
And ye (the Potentats Kings, Prinses & Rulers, throuhout Christendom and your predecessors, having forgotten, & turned your backs upon, and become Ignorant of the God that form you, and raised you up, in who's hand & at who's dispos, your breath, lyus, & dominons are, it hath rendered both them and you void of that noble Spirit of true wisdom, counsel, gravity, Prudens, vertu. & holiness which appeared on's in some of your predecessors, rendering them famous, terribel, & dreadful to their enemies abroad, & their Government louly, & desyrabel at hom, among the several Nations, tongus and languages, under their subjection. They & you became & still remain, lyk Cruel Uunatural bruit-beasts or evening wolus. turning that sword which on's rendered them dreadful, & terribel to their enemies, unto their own bowels, therewith by wars, division, strife, & contentions, murdering, killing, and destroying on Another, in the wickedness, pride, & stoutness of their, & your ambitios hearts, & minds, quarrelling ôn with another about Erthly dominions, greatness, and preheminens, emty blasphemos Antichristian Nâms, & titles of worldly Antichristian, and Spiritually wicked Honour & Dominion (to wit) Master, worshipful, High & Myty Lords Stâts General, most Illustrios, Noble, Virtuous, Honorabel, Excellent, Sereen, Earls, Duke's, Lord Protectors, Prinses, Kings, & most invincibel Emperors, Cardinal's Eminency, Archbishops & Bishop's Grâs, & Ryht Reverend Fathers in God, common Priests Reverend Divyns, etc. with the Pôps' Holiness, & all the other Nâms, & titles assumed in the Military, Civil & Ecelestastical Powers, (so called) which are not of Christ, but come out of the bottomless pit, & are Erthly sensual, & Devilish, & into the Lâk of Gods most Just, Ryteos, & Dreadful wrath & vengeans, Plagus, & Indignation must that Power, & Spirit be cast, in which ye now stand, & by which ye are acted; Ye have not learned of Christ to lov ôn another, who said to Peter put up thy sword into its plas, for all that ták the sword must perish by the sword, and here by both ye, and your government, are rendered odios, yea even most intolerably burdensome, cruel and opresing in the sit of God, and in the hearts of the Peepel over whom ye rul, lading them with Burdens, taxes, oppresions, labour, & Sôr travels in blood, & wars on against another, And althô ye call your government The Holy Roman Empyr, & the Pop blasphemosly his holiness, and the Rest of that spiritual, Babylonian Antichristian crew, holy Bishops, patrons, & Fathers of holy Church (so called) and profess your selus to be Christian Emperos, Kings, Prinses Rulers, and Peepel yet are ye found void of the true Christian Spirit, & life, & bav not learned of Christ nether are found in his nor the true Christians ways, & practices, who said lov your enemies, bless them that Curs you, do good to them that hât you, pray for them that persecut you, & despytfully ûs you, & be not overcome of evil, but over come evil by doing good: But ye have been môr barbaros, & still are mor cruel to your Enemy's, than any that ever I have heard, seen, or red of causing them to be with Irons ôn their legs lyk horses, nyt & day and their hands in Irons, chaining them by the neks lyk dogs to a post or wall, with their feet in the stocks lying on the ground, with little under them, cruelly torturing their bodies to for'rs them to confess and tell what their outward estates are, or what rich, abel friends they have, there by to procur great sums of money for their ransoms, causing them to work daily with those Irons upon their legs, providing no  for them, allowing them only water to drink, and hardly bred enuf of the courser sort to fustain their outward man yea causing some of them to work without allowing them either bred or money, hardly permitting them to fetch good water, or go to such as pased by them, where they were at work to beg; buying & seling them ôn to another as slaves, lyk beasts for money, according to what was of old foreseen, & foretold, by the Spirit of prophecy in John, the faithful witness of Jesus recorded in the Scriptures of truth, of all which Inhuman, antichristian cursed, and cruel deal, myself, and companion in travel, have been not only Ey and ear witnese, but also in mesur, have gone throuh, suffered, and sustained.  
So that this seed of the serpent, even that cursed Spirit of apostasy and falling away from the true Christian Spirit, purfaith, & life having taken root in your predecessors it hath continued in its cursed operations fruits, & working in you to this very day, and hens it hath come to pass that true wisdom is Perished from thy anients, good & wholesome counsel is not to be found among the honorabel ôns and instead of governing the Peepel in truth, pease, and righteousness, behold on all hands a grievoes cry of vyolens, spoil & oppression, instead of unity and concord, behold, strife, debat, rumours of cruel and dreadful wars, on all hands.  
And not having Christ to be your head, Bishop, King, Priest, Counseler, Lawgiver, and horn of your salvation, ye are become broken to Pieces, and divided, under dyvers heads, Bishops, Kings, Blasphemos nams', heaps and horns, pushing, stryving, contending and waring, ôn against another in blood, and cruelty, whereby whole Christendom hath been mâd an Akeldama or field of blood, even a plâs, not of kindness and good entertainment, but of cruelty, and Murder, and to bury strangers in even Christ the true and Ryt heryr, and Lord of all who hath been long as a stranger in the Earth as driven out of his possession; but now come to demand, recover, & possess his inheritans which is the purchas of your denying, betraying, and Spiritually Murdering, and Crucifying the Lord of life, and glory.  
And thy Peepel O Christendom being Ignorant of Christ who was given of the Father to be God's salvation in the ends of the Earth, even the way, the truth, and the life in Mâl, and femâl, to lead, out of strife, and discord up to God, in ways of lov; truth, pease, and righteousness, whole Christendom is become lyk the Raging sea, tossed to and fro with every wind of Doctrine, running all on heaps, contending, and quarrelling ôn with another, about emty nâms, ways, forms & professions in Religion, ôn sort or sect, crying lo here, another lo there, a third, this is the way, being all of them strangers, aliens & enemies to the Power & Spirit of God in themselves, & in his Peepel, & Ignorant of him who is the former of all things, and is without form, was  all forms or visibel appearances, and abides the sâm when they have their end, wrangling, and contending about outward bred and win, and water Baptisms and Carnal ordinanses, which were figurs in their tym, but the living bred of God which cometh down from heaven in his saints, and the Pur Wyn of the Kingdom of God, which refresheth, and nourisheth the life which is pur, eternal and Immortal of God in the Imvard parts, is not truly fed on, or drank of by them, And the ón Baptism which saveth, even the pur living water of life which cleanseth, & washeth the Inward man, and sprinkleth from an evil consciens, is not known, felt, or truly Experiensed in them.  
Betwixt those two, to wit the Beast, & falls Profet, the Civil & Ecclesiastical Power (so called, hath the lamb, slain from the foundation of the world which lieth in wickedness, been crucified afresh, as betwixt two thiefs, the ón being accuser, (the old accuser of the Brethren) & the other judge: & the third (to wit the Military Power) the executioner which is the Barrabas which they have chosen in rejecting, & crucifying of Jesus, by whom all the Insurrections, Murders, divydings of his garment (to wit, the creation) into particular Interests, & casting lots on his vesture, hath been done, & committed, sins the entrans of transgression to this day, who practice hath been & still is to Rob, spoil, & plunder the nations, of their treasures, & fruits of their labours, to uphold themselves in pride, lusts, eas, Fullness, cruelty, & oppression over the Nations, under falls pertenses of protecting, & teaching them, in ways of Peas, righteousness and salvation. Thes are the Physicians of no valu, & the Nations have been the woman with the bloody Issu, that hath gone to them for help, & cur, but notwithstanding well nigh all hath been spent on them the bloody Issu hath not been healed, but rendered by far the mor Incurabel; but blesed be the Lord, the woman hath now met with Jesus, the good Physician, & gotten a touch of the hem of his garment & feels in herself the healing virtue, & the Bloody Issu is in mesur stayed, which blessed healing virtue shall not cease working till it pass throuh the whole body of the Creation, and the cûr, and redemption thereof be completed. 
the three that bear Record in bell.   
Thes, tovvit, the Dragon, Beast, & falls profet, àr the three that bear record in Earth and hell, which are ôn, and Agree in ôn, to wit, the Spirit of the old serpent in man, its corrupting of Mankind, & its cursed fruits and operations throuh Man kind.  
And here may be noted that which I may call the living or essential differens, betwixt the living, & true Lord God, & the Devil, the old Serpent, the God of the World, about which the learned Disputers, eloquent Orators, & Comentators in the Spirit of the World, have been so long Disputing, contending and writing large Commentaries, Contradictory ôn to the other; But having nether the Key of David, nor the Heifer of Samson to Blow with, could never truly open or unfold the Matter, and all though they have mâd ûs ' of the Words of the Holy Men of God recorded in the Scriptures, yet are they therein found falls witnese, being strangers, & aliens from that Holy & Pur Spirit, Lyt, & Wisdom of God in the Holy Profets, by which they spâk and wrote.  
The living, & true God is that Eternal, Pur Spirit of Lyt, Lyf, Wisdom & Power, which hath its being in, & of its self, and was  all Creatures, visibel and in visibel wer, & is the life, former, fullness, & end of them all, & abideth the sâm when they have their end: But the old Serpent, the Devil, the God of the World, was not  things visibel, and invisibel were, but was màd manifest in tym throuh matter & form, and is not, but by, and throuh matter, and form, and ceaseth to be when they have their end in every particular, towit the Spirit of that old Serpent, the carnal covetoes mind with the law thereof, which hath its Seat in the members, the Erthly, or sensual part of Mankind, which is the Woman that was deceived & first in the transgression, both, of mâl & femâl which is Death, Hell, & a Devil in all in whom it dwells, & reins, even the Kingdom and Power offin, & darkness, the seat, and Thrôn of all Iniquity, and all who in that Spirit, and Power Exercies Rul, and Dominion ever others, are a hell of Devils, and tormentors to them, which is the Spirit of the Beast in Mankind that goeth downward, and renders all, in whom it Dwells, & rules to be the Seed, and Children of the Devil that old Serpent, which is mor subtle than any beast of the field which the Lord God hath mâd, who's curs, and portion was, is, & for ever shallbe, on their Bells to go, & to eat dust all the Days of their life, but the life which is pur of God in Mankind, is not up held by bred alone, but by the pur Word of the Lord of life and Power in the inward parts, doth man liv, whom God is now restoring, and redeeming again up into himself, to Partak o● his own pur Divyn Nature, and fullness and to bear his Imag, to the enjoyment of the gift which he freely gav to the Children of Men, whom the Lord will again Crown with his own pur life, & Plas in Eternal Dominion over the works of his hands. The Son is in mesur risen, and the day come, in which all the devouring Beasts of Prey shall lie down in their dens & sleep a perpetual sleep, & man goforth unto his labour until the evening, from under the curs, & Power of transgression, sin, Death & hell, in the blessing of Eternal life, pur lov, Peas, & righteousness for ever mor.  
And so having slain the Innocent, murdered and crucified the just, to, and in themselves, the true Lord, and heir of all, cast him out of his inheritans, and possesed themselves thereof, they contryved how to mâk sur the possession thereof to themselves, their heirs, and Successors in that Serpentyn, Murderos, & oppresing Spirit, & Power, if possibel to all ages & generations. And the woman the Ecclesiastical Power, being deceived, & first in the transgression, act their parts, carrying all under a falls, & feigned pretense of righteousness, Holiness, and good orders, laying the foundation as sur and as deep as possibly myt be, according to that Serpentyn Wisdom by with they were acted, Erecting Schools, Colleges, and Vniversitys, under a pretense of up-holding of learning, and to fit Instruments for the Servis of God in their Generation, but to the end that such as are taught, and tutored in them, myt be sur to partak and be filled, with the same Dyabolical Spirit, and Power, by which she is acted, she orders that none shall be permitted to teach, Tutor, or instruct in them, But such as must pass her approbation or such as she appoints, causing them to come into her cursed leagu ', and Covenant, of obediens, and subjection, to her and her Husband, by the Oaths, of Allegians & Supremacy, which being done accordingly they proceed in their work, teaching Children in their beginning to Read, & learn in Books of feigned lying stories, with many filthy, and unsavoury expressions in them, which tend to the corrupting and infecting them in their childhood, and rays that Spirit in them which is enmity against God, and this under a pretense that learning may not be a burden to them, and that Children may tâk delyt in their Books, and having mâd some progress in this Kind of learning they proceed further to teach them to act their parts on stages in Comedys, & Tragedys, thereby to gain skill, and boldness in the Rhetoric, and Oratory of hell, that so they may be the mor capabel to ascend further in acquyring of degrees in those tongus, parts, and arts, standing in that Wisdom which is enmity against God, putting on them the Nâms of Masters, and Bachelors of Arts, Bachelors, and Doctors in Divinity, Lecturers and Fellows of Colleges, etc.  
The effects, & fruits of which cursed tutorag', have been evidently mád manifest among the inhabitants of those parts, and plases where such Schools, Colleges, & Universitys are, in the Exercies of Drunkenness, pride, swearing, deceit, revelling, gaming, whoring, theft, & murder, & such Kind of tutored ôns, throuh ages, & generations past, have been counted, & mâd ûs, of as the only fit, & learned instruments to supply Vacancies and carry on a succession in commanding, governing, & teaching the Peepel of the several Nations, & languages throuhout Christendom.  
But if they have been the children of those called noble men or Lords, or such as have great estates, & revenus to maintain them, without seeking any military or ecclesiastical preferment or to be Doctors of Phisic (so called) then must they be counted in the plases where they dwell, learned men, well bred gentle men, fit to mák Justises of the pease, or Sherryfs of the county, or to be Esquyrs, Knyts, Baronet's, Lords, Earls, Duke's, or Peers of the Land; who's lyus, & conversations, are generally spent in devouring daily delitios food, win, & strong drink, wearing every vain, & foolish invented garb & fashion of costly Attyr, deked with needle's, & vain ornaments, in lusts, eas and Carnal pleasures, gaming, bowling, hors-rasing, hawking, huuting breaking down fences, spoiling the grass, and corn of the laborios husbandman, as masters of wicked misrul, & disorder, that must not be reproved or controlled and it may be assuming to them selves a privilege, to the exercies of their wild and wicked Practices, by virtue of some Royalty, or being Lord of the Manor (so called.) Of such Kind of vermin as thes, hath the succession, of Emperors, Kings, Prinses, Rulers, Teachers Commanders, judges, Sherrifs, Counsellors, Physicians, Rectors, Fellows, and Teachers, in Schools, Colleges, Vniversitys, Court and Kingdoms, with all plases of trust or profit in them, bincarryedon, for ages and generations passed unto this day.  
Next she tàks away the ûs of the scriptures of truth, the record of the holy men of God, to wit the Profets, Christ, and the apostles, from the peepel, & this under a pretense, lest they being holy, & mysterios should be corrupted, wrested, and perverted, but a Religion she will uphold, which must bear the Nàm of Christaninty, & holy church, a form of Doctrine, Fellowship, breaking of bred, prayer, Preaching, Singing, Baptism, Fasting, etc. she invents, and calls it holy, & Apostolical, though quit void of that Pur Power, & spirit, of holiness which was in Christ & in the holy apostles, The ded bodies of the witnese must not be buried, but kept up to màk merry with all, ●ver the slain, pur witnese of God which on's appeared in & throuh them.  
But to the end that they may appear with the show of alouly acceptabel & attractyv countenans, to the peepel; she adorns, Paints, perfums, spices, and Imbalms them, after the best skill & wisdom which she hath in the art of her Dyabolical Apothecaryship, adorning herself in Purpel, Scarlee, & fin linen deked with gold, and other ornaments, adorning her house with several sorts of pictures, images, and ydols to represent God Christ, the Spirit, Angels & Saints, under a pretense of their being instead of books to the ignorant, & Illiterate peepel, covering her tabel with costly carpets, & fynlinen, setting there on a goldencup, & platter, where in she ministereth forth her wârs of whoredom, witchcraft, & abomination to the peepel, with sweet perfums several sorts of music, singing men, & Boys; whereby provision was màd to pleas, and gratify the sensual part of Man kind on every hand, and thus having deked herself in her harlot's attyr, furnished her house, spread her tabel, and màd all things Ready, she hath her baptized bells to giv loud notis, when the Doors of her house or shop are open, and her wàrs to be put to sâl, with a Clerk to lay the Cushion, & turn the glass (by which they mesur out their wârs to the Peepel,) & to say Amen to what soever the orakel of the devil in them uttereth forth, in which Ydol Temples, or shops, which they Ignorantly call churches, there are several sials, at which they Administer, and lay Open their several sorts of Abominabel wârs of sorcery, wherdom, and with craft, to wit those called, Fonts, Altars or communion tabels, desks, and Pulpits, confessionstools & in Scotland stools of Repentans so called.  
Their Font is a plâs where they Administer an invention of their own Brains, called the Sacrament of Baptism, about which they us a heap of ceremonies with Blasphemos lys, and charms of witchcraft and sorcery, using water, which after they have sprinkled the Person with whether young or old, they affirm them to be Regenerate, Born again, mâd members of Christ, Children of God & inheritors of the Kingdom of heaven, having Persons to stand by, which they call, God Fathers, and God Mothers, to under taken, or promise that the Person sprinkled, shall for sak the Devil, & all his works, the Pomp, & vanities of the World, and all the sinful lusts of the flesh: Making the sin of a cross (the whors' mark) on their forheds saying, Intoken that afterwards they shall not be ashamed to confess the faith of Christ crucified, & manfully to fit under his Banner, against sin, the World, & the Devil, & to continue Christ's faithful soldiers, & servants unto their lyus ends, etc. which as any have come truly to do & be, they have been mâd a prey on by them, & their Nâms cast forth as evil, counted Heritics & not fit to liv, who's practice towards such, for ages, & generations past, to this day hath been, spoiling their goods imprisonment banishment, whipping, torturing, racking, hanging, & burning their persons.  
Others there are who though they ûs not, such a heap of lys, & ceremoys about it yet are they acted by the same spirit, & Power in the ground, in the administration thereof, some sprinkling infants, others diping persons of riper years, affirming it to be the baptilm of Christ uring a necessity there of, as unto salvation, where in they agree with the whore of Rom: where as John who was the minister of water baptism said thus I bapties you with water, but there cometh òn after me, mytyer than I, (to wit Christ) he shall bapties you with the holy ghost or spirit: and Christ himself in his charge to his discypels said, go ye, and teach all nations baptysing them (he said not in water but) in to the name of the Father, & of the Son, & of the holy spirit, which baptism of Christ by the holy spirit, was administered throuh preaching in thè demonstration of the spirit, & Power of God, whereby Peepel were brouht in to a participation of the lyt, lov, wisdom, Power and spirit of holiness, which is the Nàm of the father, who is the God of lyt, and lov, & the name of the Son who is the wisdom, and Power of God, & the Nàm of the holy ghost, who is called the spirit of holiness, this is the òn baptism which saveth, which the apostle said is not the washing away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good consciens towards God, by the resurrection of Christ from the ded (in them) the baptism which is by the òn spirit into the òn body of Christ, which body of Christ, is the whole creation, visibel, & invisibel of which every living cretur of God is a member the tempel, the house of Prayer unto all nations: the visibel, and sensityv part whereof, is the womam that was deceived, and first in the transgression, the evil effects of which transgresing Power, hath (throuh those angels that kept not their own habitations,) spread itself over the whole body, whereby a dark vail of covering hath been drawn over the Pur lyt, & glory of God in every cretur visibel, & invisibel, otherwys there had not been need of making a covenant, for the redemption, Salvation, Deliverans, and restoration of the whole body, had not the effects of the curs & bondag of corruption been over all, & that it hath been so, hath evidently appeared in the several eclipses & darkening of the Sun, the turning of the moon in to blood, the falling of the stars of the heavens, the Extremes of heat & cold, natural, & spiritual, tempestuos, and blasting Wynds, outward & Inward, Infectios' clouds, vapours, & mildews, on the outward, & Inward man, overwhelming, & destroying showers of snow, rain & hail, the enmity that is (not only) in Mankind but in every cretur òn against another, not only of ôn sort against those of another sort, but against each other of the same kind, & sort, which are all the effects of the curs that entered by transgression, & it cannot be other wis: For if God cast out God, then were his Kingdom divided against itself, & so should have an end, but the eternal Power the former of all things, being the spirit of Pur life, lov, pease wisdom, righteousness & holiness, those effects formentioned could not proceed from him; for every effect proceeds from its natural, & proper cause, & had the creation stood under the government of that Pur Power & spirit by which it was created, & brouht forth, the transgresing Power, & curs could not have entered, & all those evil effects there of had never been brouht forth, for death, folly, unrighteousness desylment, destruction, & enmity, could never Possibly have been the effects or prodùs, of that spirit of Pur life, wisdom, righteousness, Salvation, Preservation, & lov.  
From this cursed Root (the transgressing Power that old serpentyn spirit which took plàs in Eva and Adam, and throuh them hath spread itself over the whole body) hath sprung, all the wars murders, Persecutions, Enmity, Deceit, Plagus, Pestilenses siknese Famine's, Destructions, wo's, Calamitys, & Miseries, which have been, & still are, not only upon, & in Mankind, but in & upon the whole body of the creation, and as the everlasting covenant of God to his own Pur Seed (which is Christ) not only in Mankind, but in the whole body of the creation, & every cretur therein contained) comes to be màd good, the corrupt bondag of the transgresing Power chal be broken, & all the miserabel, & cursed effects, thereof shall cease. According to the promise of God by, & throuh his holy Profets which body of Christ is his spous, his church, to & for which he giveth himself, that he may redeem, wash & clens it, that it may become holy blâmles, & without spot, in the midst of which, even in, & throuh every creturth declareth the Father's Nàm unto his brethren, & sings Praises unto him. This is the sweet singer of Israel, 
Christ is all in all, betxixt God and man whether in dispensing mercy or execuring judgement visibel or in visibel, in & upon Mankind. as first to & upon Adam & Eva.  who throuh all ages, & generations, hath in righteousness, & faithfulness, sung the sweet song of mercy, & judgement, as a Son over his own house, to wit, Christ the eternal word of life, the wisdom, and Power of God, which was in the beginning with God  his works of old, by whom all things were mâd, and are upheld.  
It was he that mâd Mankind in his own pur Imag & plase him in Dominion over the works of his hands, who in lov and kindness gav them freedom to eat of every tree of the garden, prohibiting them only from eating of the tree of knowledge of good, and evil, warning them in mercy of the evileffects of transgresing against his Just command therein, yea even when the lust was conceiving, and the Tempter working in Eva, & it was Christ, the sâam eternal Wisdom, and Power of God, (which in Just, & Ryteos Judgement, after sin, and transgression had taken plâs, and got entrans in them) that pronounced, and executed on, & in them the Just, and Ryteos Judgements of God because of their sin & transgression.  
It was he (to wit Christ) that in mercy to, & in the old World, exercised patience, 
To and upon the old wrold.  & long forbearans by his spirit in stryving with them, till all flesh had corrupted their ways  him, so that it repent him that he had màd man. And it was he, that in just, and ryteos Judgement, brouht in the flood upon the World of the ungodly.  
It was he, that in lov, and mercy to Sodom, and Gomorrah, and those other cities, gav them rain, & fruitful seasons whereby they had fullness of bred and plenty, thereby leaving them inexcusabel, 
To and upon Sodom and Gomorra.  exercising long forbearans, patience and mercy towards them, till his soul (in just Lot) was vexed, and grieved with their wicked deeds, who having filled up the mesur of their abominations;  
It was he, that in, and by fyr executed the just, and ryteos Judgement of God on them, turning them into as hes, leaving them an exampel to succeeding ages.  
It was he that, 
To & upon Pharo & Egypt.  in lov, and mercy to Tharo and the Egyptians, and to sav much Peepel alyv, in & throuh Joseph directed Pharo to lay up several slôrs of corn in the seven Years of plenty against the seven Years of famine; And it was he that in, & throuh Moses, and Aaron, executed just & ryteos Judgements on Pharo, and the Egyptians, because of their unryteos cruelty and bondag exercised over Israël, refusing to let them go, & that in, and by the Sea, overwhelmed, Tharô, and his host in their Murderos, and wiked pursuit after Israël.  
It was he that (in lov, 
To & upon Israel in the wilderness.  & mercy to Israël) in & throuh Moses, Aaron, the cloud, Pillar of fyr, Brazen Serpent, Manna, & Water out of the rock (Christ,) brouht them out of Egyptian bondag, & led them saf throuh the Sea, & mâd known to them his law, Statutes & Judgements, guiding, feeding, healing, and preserving them, and it was he that in just and ryteos Judgement because of their unbelief, rebellions, & hardness of heart, caused their Carcases to fall in the wilderness.  
It was he, 
To & upon the Canaanyes.  That in mercy, to & in the inhabitants of Canaan, which were  Israël, exercysed patience, and long forbearâns, giving them the long enjoyment of that good Land, and his blessing in it; and it was he that in, & throuh Israël executed his just, and ryteos Judgement on them, they having filled up the misur of their sins to theful.  
It was he that in lov, 
To & upon Israel in the land of Canaan.  & mercy to the of springs of rebellios Israël (of whom themselves said they should become a prey) who for his own Nâm, and Covenant sâk, mâd with faithful Abraham gav them the Possession of the Land of Canaan, performing his word of promise to the full as is recorded in the Scriptures of truth, and it was he that in just, and ryteos Judgement, suffered the heathen round about them to come upon them & exercies Dominion over them in the Land, and somtyms to carry them captyus in to other Cuntries they having by their often Provocations, Rebellions, & Idolatry departed from the Lord, and broken the Covenant And when any mesur of true repentans appeared in them.  
It was he that in lov and mercy, raised up saviors for them, and in and throuh them. Delivered them, returning their captivity dyvers times, who having filled up the mesur of their provocations, oppressions, and Idolatry, moking, stoning, imprisoning, cruelly using, and slaying his Holy Profets sent unto them, yea even betraying, rejecting, & crucifying the Son of God himself, Christ Jesus  
It was the sâm Eternal Power of God which dwelled bodily in him, who in just, and ryteos Judgement in, & throuh the Romans destroyed, their glorios city, & Tempel, & over turned their on's famous Government, & led them captyus in shâm, scorn, and contemt amongst the Nations, who so remain unto this day.  
It was he that in lov & mercy to the gentiles or Romans, engrafted them into the good oliv tree, causing them to partak of the blessed root, 
To the Romans.  & fatness thereof, and who throuh all ages, & generations, sins the World which lieth in wickedness began, & in & throuh the Apostasy of the Gentiles or Romans, hath born the strôk of the Murderer's hand, and his soul been mad an offering for sin, giving his back to the smiter, and his cheeks to them that have pluked of the hair, who in, and throuh the Holy Men of God, Profets, Christ Jesus, the Holy apostles, Saints Martyrs, & faithful witnese of Jesus to this day, hath been siling up the mesur of his sufferings, for his bodies sak which is the Church, enduring & bearing the Reproaches, Blasphemies, & contradictions of sinners, the mesur of who's sufferings is near hand filled up, the witnese Prophesying in sakloth near hand ended, the Spirit of life from God being entered into them, & they (in mesur) standing on their own feet, the end of the World which lies in wickedness being in mesur come, which shall put an end to the Power of sin, & finish transgression, & bring in everlasting righteousness, and establish it in Man kind, and Mankind in it, who is now appearing, & by the brytnes of his coming in ten thousands of his Saints, (in mesur) already hath & daily mor, & mor shall, reveal, consume, and utterly destroy the man of sin.  

The sâm● that hath executed  And now the Gentiles or Romans having siled up the measar of their Apostasy & bloody abominations, in degenerating, & falling away from that pur life of saith & holy conversation in Christ Jesus, which was on's appearing in their predecessors, racking, stoning Imprisoning, banishing, torturing, Burning and hanging those in whom the Innocent & holy life of Jesus hath appeared, whom God hath raised up, & sent often amongst them, to warn them, & turn them from the evil of their do, who's warnings, & counsels being rejected and despised, Now , is Christ the same Eternal wisdom, lyt & Power of God in Just & ryteos Judgement raising up the Turkish Power, & in, & throuh them will he Execut, on the Dragon's, beast's, & falls profet's power, in the Romans or gentiles, the Judgements written. Who also, when he hath done his work in Zion will punish the stout heart of the King of Assyria, & the glory of his hy looks, and the hauhtynes of man shall be abased and the loftiness of man laid low, even with the ground, every mountain leveled, & the Lord alone Exalted, & all his enemies become his footstool & swords beat into blow shârs, and spears into pruning hooks, so that nation shall not lift up sword against nation, nor learn war any mor, & the whole creation be delivered from the bondag of corruption into the glorios liberty of the Sons of God, and the Kingdom, and Dominion in, throuh, and over all surrendered up unto the Fáther, and thus Christ the lyt, wisdom and Power of God, the Root, and of spring of David, the sweet singer of Israel, having glorified the Father on Earth, & finished the work given him to do, in the faithful administration, & execution of mercy & judgement, shall be glorified with the Father, and the whole creation, in and with him, with the same glory which he had in & with the Father  the foundation of the world which lieth in wickedness began.  
And as the natural Body of Christ is but òn, so the life, spirit or soul (which is the Spiritual Body) is but ón also, throuhout the whole Body, 
The whole creation is the body of Christ.  & every living member thereof, which is God manifest in the flesh; The sâm Eternal life, & pur Power which giveth being, and form to ôn Cretur, giveth form, & being unto all, not only to, & in Mankind, but to, and in every Cretur, so that the whole, is but ôn Body, filled & acted, by ôn soul guided, governed & quikened by ôn Eternal Spirit, which are ôn, and agree in ôn, in him who is the incomprehensibel Lord God Omnipotent, the Eternal Fountain and fullness of all, and here in is seen that imaginary faith of a Godhead comprehended in three Persons, for according to their own apprehensions, a person, being a body in conjunction with a soul, than it may be affirmed, that there are as many Persons comprehended in the God head, as there are Kinds of living Creturs, and distinct Creturs of every Kind, which ón Body with the ón soul, acted and governed by the on Eternal quikening Spirit, is the ón only Son of God, which come out of the bosom of the Father in whom he was, is & ever shall be well pleased and as the Father hath life in himself, so hath he given the Son to have life in himself & to every living cretur or member in him to have life in itself, both in the natural, & spiritual body & the life of all in the seed preserved, & as Christ (who is the eternal quikening Power, to & in the seed both of the natural, & spiritual body, appears, so do they all appear with him in true Pur glory, & the communication of the virtue of the eternal quikening Power, to & in the seed both of the Natural & Spiritual Body is throuh the cross of Christ, which to & in the seed of the natural body is communicated throuh natural, sensibel & visibel things, to wit, Winter & Summer, heat & cold, seed tym & harvest, hunger & food, thirst & drink, Nyt & Dây, motion & rest; But to & in the seed of the Spiritul Body after a Spiritual, and invisibel manner, either secretly in the reins, heart, and inward parts, or throuh earthen vessels, which he hath filled with that treasure, & a dispensation thereof comittent to them, which is the Spirit of Prophecy a ded because of transgression, which shall cease, & fail, as into the everlasting Covenant, Mankind is brouht: which Communication of the virtue of the Eternal Power, throuh the cross, to and in the seed of the Spiritual Body, answereth Spiritually to all the dimensions thereof, to, and in the seed of the natural body, which are all of them as truly necessary to the being, and wellbeing of the seed, and life of God the ôn as the other, both in the natural and spiritual body, and as desyr fails in the on, the natural body returns to the Earth and the spirit to God that gav it, and as desyr fails in the other such become ded while they liv: which cross, is the everlasting covenant o God, to and with the seed, his own life, both in the natural, and spiritual body, which in ôn, in and throuh the whole creation, and every living cretur therein contained, only differing in degrees, and manner of working and operation.  
And for an assurans of his faithfulner in making good the covenant on his part to the seed in the natural, & visibel body, he hath given an outward or visibel sin or token, plasing his Bow in the clouds of the visibel heavens; And to the seed of the invisibel or spiritual body, he hath given an invisibel or spiritual witness, or token, to wit, the lyt which shineth in the dark plàs, in the inward parts, the faithful, & true witness of God, the word which liveth and Abideth for ever, near in the mouth, and in the heart, concerning which the covenant, & Promise of God is, that it shall not departed out of the mouth of the seed nor of its seeds seed for ever, even so long as the Sun, and moon endureth.  
And here I Judge it expedient further to declare, that I do not herein either deny or under vallu either the person, work or Sonship of jesus Christ, that just, and innocent ón, who witnesed a good confession  Pontius Pylat. But what the holy Profets, & apostles declared, & recorded in the spirit of truth concerning him, I do own, & acknowledge to be true & do hereby affirm, that the same eternal Pur holy, & Innocent life, & fullness of God, which dwelled bodily in him, was the lamb which was slain from the foundation of the world which lieth in wickedness, the holy seed of the woman to which the covenant of God is màd in which all the Promises of God are yea, and Amen, in which all the families of the Earth shall be blesed, the lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world, the Shylo into whom the gathering of the Peepel shall be, the Alpha and Omega, the beginning & the end of all the works of God, without beginning of days or end of life, who was, is, & is to come, & abideth the Sam for ever, world without end, and that he come out of the bosom of the Father in who's mouth was found no guyl, in whom the temter nether had nor found any Plàs, & was the first begotten from the ded, the first born amongst many brethren, the Author, and Captain of eternal salvation, who pased the tym of his so journing on Earth in that mortal body, in the Pur fear & lov of God, faithfully finisingh the work given him by the Father to do, & in the sàm eternal Pur spirit offered up himself unto God without spot, & returned into the bosom of the Father, innocent holy, harmless, & undefyled, as he proceeded, & càm forth from the Father.  
And as concerning that body of flesh in which he appeared, this I say, as himself also testified, that the flesh profiteth nothing, but it is that eternal word of spirit, and life, which was màd manifest in & throuh that body of flesh, was, and is the wisdom, and Power of God to salvation, in all them that believed and that he had power to lay it down, and taken it again, and did lay it down upon the cross, and took it again out of the sepulker, and in it was received by a cloud out of the sit of his discypels, and according to the scriptures this I say, that the things which are seen with the outward or visibel ey are but temporal, and fading, but the things which are not seen they are eternal.  

Nòn have advantag by the death of Christ, but such as partak of his Lyf.  And as concerning what was done, said & suffered, by the life, wisdom, and Power of God, in, by and throuh that earthen vessel, non have any profit or benefit thereby, but only such who come into a participation of the same eternal life, and purfulnes of God in them selus, which was in him.  
The next stall is their Altars, or communion tabels where they administer an invenrion of their own brains, which they call the Sacrament of the Altar, or communion, or the Lord's supper, in which they make ûs of bred, & win, which after the Priest hath said his Charm of Sorcery, and witchcraft over, called consecration, they affirm that the substans of the bred & win is departed, & that their remaineth nouht, but Accidents, and that under those Accidents is the Sàm body, & blood of Christ which was shed & crucified on à cross without the gats of Jerusalem, being ignorant, that the substans, not only of bred & win but of every cretur is no other than the only living & true Lord God, so that by their own confession that which they receiv in their Sacrament, is only Accidents without substans, and verily as to them so it is, for they feed on ashes, a deceived heart hath turned them asyd.  
Others there are, who though they have not, such a heap of lys, and ceremonies about the administration of it, yet are they in it acted by the Sâm spirit in the ground & althô they affirm not that it is the sàm body, in which the Son of God suffered death without the gats of jerusalem, yet after they have said their charm, called blessing the bred, they look on it as somewhat mor than it was, but what, they cannot well say, caling it a supper, when many of them receiv it  they have eaten their own dinners, affirming it to be the communion of the body & blood of Christ, when as to them its only a Tabel of such as eat, & drink unworthily, they not discerning the Lords body, & so become guilty of the body, & blood of the Lord.  
Whereas Christ jesus, in the s●m nyt in which he was betrayed took bred & blesed it, & brak it & gav it to his discypels, saying taken, & eat, this is my body which is given for you, do this in remembrans of me, and lykwys the Cup saying, this is the new Testament in my blood, which is shed for many, and this was  he had suffered death in that body throuh which he spoke unto them (mark that) and the Apostel said that the bred which they brak was the communion of the body of Christ, and the cup of blessing which they blessed was the communion of the blood of Christ, and that so often as they did eat of that bread (he said not on's a week, month, or year, but so often as they did eat, & drink thereof) they did show forth the Lords death till he come, to wit, his death in the creturs received; & in the true hunger & thirst, of the true discerning, and worthy receiver, till he appear in the virtue of his own life, blessing, and lov, in and throuh the creturs received, to nourish, and refresh the same in every true discerning, and worthy receiver, for it is no other than the life of God which tasteth death in ôn Cretur, to refresh, nourish, & uphold the sá; m in another, & herein he tasteth death for every man, & is the saviour of man & beast, which is the word of his eternal wisdom, & Power by which he upholdeth all things. That which nourisheth, and refresheth, and that which is Nourished, and refreshed is ôn, in every true discerning, and worthy receiver, as he that sanctifyeth, and they who are sanctified are of ôn.  
The other stalls are their Desks, & pulpits, where in stead of speaking as the orakel of God, & preaching the everlasting gospel, according as they have seen, felt, tasted, & experiensed in them selus, and praying as the Pur spirit of the Lord giveth utterans, they utter forth the imaginations of their own brains, filing the ears of the Peepel with ●abels, & stories of lying sins, and wonders, gathered out of the write & books of such whom they call, ancient Fathers, Poets, hathen Philosophers & Commentators, with their own imaginations from the scriptures, perverting them to their own, & others destruction, intruding into things which they have not seen, using some words of Hebrew, Greek, & Latin somtyms in their preaching, in imitation of those tongus which were on's appearing as a gift, in & amongst the apostles; for a sin unto them which believed not, that so as the speaking in dyvers tongus, & languages, became on's a divyding, and confounding curs amongst the bvilders of Babel in the fall, so to, and in the apostles, it became a gift of God, or sin to such as believed not, that they myt be brouht again out of the curs, out of the many tongu's and languages, to learn, and speak the ôn pur languag'.  
And in stead of praying by the motion, and help of the pur Power, and Spirit of the Lord in them, which is the only Advocate with the Father, who eyer lives to make intercession, in and for the Saints, according to the will of God they read; & utter forth many vain repetitions, which they call Masses, Ave mary, Pater nosters, Creeds, Common Prayers, out of their divyn Servis books & Directories, etc. With the blind & dark conceptions of their own hearts & brains, called Extemporary Prayers, thinking as their predecessors, & fór fathers, the Scrybs, Pharisees & Hypocryts of old, to be heard for their much babbeling, & in stead of singing in the Spirit, & making sweet melody to the Lord in their hearts, they have several sorts of Music, with singing men & boys, to make a noys after the manner of the hethens of old, when they sacrificed their children throuh the fyr unto devils. Others there are who sing, and cause others to sing the saints words and conditions in rym or meeter, many of them being ignorant that therein they do evil, offering the sacrifies of fools: For, for any ôn, or mor together to sing as praises unto God, in the words of the saints or Profets left upon record, and say that God is their righteousness, and that he hath pluked their ●eet out of the mire, & set them on the rock & established their go; or that there is no rest in their bôns by reason of their sins, & that they water their couch with their tears, & their skin is as a bottle in the smoke, or that the law of God's mouth is dearer to them then thousands of Gold, and Silver, & Sweeter than the honey or the honey comb, as a Lantern to their feet & lyt unto their Paths, & their eye not lofty, nor their heart hauhty, but that their souls are as weaned children etc. When they are such as liv in vanity, & Pride, and mâk a scorn, and a derision of such as walk in the lyt, & make the eternal word or spirit of the Lord in them their guided leader, and teacher, and make it their delyt to spend their tym in covetoes ways, and practices to heap up to them selves the Riches, and treasure of the world by dishonest gain, having their feet stiking fast in the myr of filth and unrighteousness, the singing and praising of such is not only a sacrifies of fools but a sacrifies of abominabel lies, & blasphemies.  

And thus all the inward invisibelthings of God, being changed into outward visibel sins & shadows of them (viz for the true clothing of the righteousness of Christ, the true Imag of God and aros of Christ, Holiday of the Spirit, Holy Water of byf, & inwardlyt, etc. they have set up their painted Priestly rôbs, outward Images, Crosses, Holy days, Holy water, outwardlyts of Candles  And being strangers and enemies to thelyt, and spirit of truth, in man which sercheth the deep things of God which is the eternal day, the holy day of God, which all who truly keep, are children of the day, they have in their own wills mâd, and set a part many days which they call holy Days, giving them the nâms of Christ-mas, Candle mass, Lammas, Michael-mas days, & of saints, as james, Peter, Thomas, & John's day with many other Nams, on which days after, they have been at their charms of babbeling sorcery, and Idolatros witch craft, called, Mass, divyn servis, commy prayers, sermons etc. many times the priest taketh their consecrated breden-Y dol God, which they call the hallowed host, the bedy of their Lord God, having a canopy born over him, & others bearing dyvers standadrs or banners, with Y dol pictures in them but the standard & Banner of Christ, which is Peas, Lov, righteousness & Meekness they are strangers, & Enemy's unto, going up and down the streets, & fields, causing hy & low, rich & poor, small & great, mâl & femâl to follow them in their Idolatros, & pernitios way & to bow, & kneel down to their invented Y dol, & be subject to their Idolatros practices, after which both priest, & peepel spend the residu of those days, some in Y delnes & vanity, others in the exercies of Riot, chambering, wantonness, masking, Dancing, bowling, delitios fâr & feasting, excesyv drinking Wyn & strong drink to drunkenness with several other ways of vanity and wickedness. And being strangers, and enemies to the spirit of the Lord, that pur living fountain of living holy water in the in ward parts, which washeth & cleanseth the in ward man, in which the saints draw nigh to God, & God draweth nigh to them by which they resist the devil, & make him flee, they taken outward water which after the priest hath said his charm over, called consecration, they call holy water they sprinkel both them selves, and the Peepel, causing also the Peepel to sprinkel them selves, crosing themselves with their hands, affirming that it will keep away evil spirits, & dryv away the devil etc. Whilst the bodies of both priests, & peepel are become the habitations of devils, the cages, & holds of every fowl spirit, the seed, & children of hell, & the devil, for they being found in the ways of deceit, enmity, unrighteousness, covetousness, oppresion, hypocrisy, Idolatry, persecution and murdering of the saints, & thes being works of the devil, 
torches, etc.) the Peepel âr deceived of the trusubstans, & fed only with inventions in which there is no virtue.  they are thereby rendered the seed and children of that Father who's works they do, as Christ said to the Jews of Old who said they were the children of Abraham.  
And lastly they cause a Law to be mâd prohibiting any from assembeling themselves together to the Exercies of any worship, but only in their Mas-houses or Y dol-tempels, under the penalty of being Reputed, and dealt with, as Conventikelers holding unlawful assemblies, Heritics, Non conformists, & disorderly Persons, which hath been Executed on thousands of Innocent persons, in ways of cruelty, blood and murder, in ages & generations passed unto this day.  
Thus having eaten of the forbidden tree, which appeared beautiful to the eye, she (the Ecclesiastical Power) gav also to her husband (to wit the Civil Power (so called) even the whole body of them, even all the Potentats, Kings, Prinses, & Rulers, throuhout Christendom, who haveat also with her: And that all myt be mad sûr, on their Parts also, they invented an oath called the oath of Allegians, to be taken by such as are within the Consyns of each of their severaldominions, causing their Laws, with Bills, Bonds, and write obligatory to be put in Latin, under a precens to uphold, and incorag learning, whereby provision was mad to uphold, that Proud, Covetoes, Vnresonabel, Extorting, and Deceitful generation of men called Doctors in the law, Counsellors, Advocats, Solicitors, Atturnys, Clarks, and Scrybs; and to the end that all myt be mád saf, and secur on every hand, they have the red Dragon, or Military Power, which they Plâs, and quarter up and down, in, and throuh the nations, in those fexes hòls, to wit, the fenced cities, strong holds and garrisons, standing there, as the angels of each devil, ready to obey and fulfil their cursed wills, and pleasures; So that they became as a three fold cord or bond of wickedness not easily to be broken, whereby the nations became subjected under the cruel bondag of corruption; not wilingly but by for'rs, and cruelty, and became as an As or the foal of an As on which never man sat, but cruel devouring beasts of prey, who's journey hath not been to jerusalem but to there building of jericho, which is cursed with the founder, and the finisher, who laid the foundation thereof in his first born, by whom sin & transgresion had its entrans into the world, which is now finishing in his youngest son, the foundation of who's walls, is blood, and murder, & the gats thereof deceit and lys, into which nothing can enter but that which defileth, and worketh abomination, in the darkness whereof the nations of them that sit under the region of the shadow of death, do dwell and walk.  
And thus the old serpent the God of the world, having finished his work sat himself down in them to taken his Rest, as a strong man armed, concluding to keep his house, wife, children, & goods in sâfty, and pease, in their dyabolical order, & fraternity, if poslibel to all ages, & generations, making them selves Merry together over the slain Innocent witness of God the true heir of all, which they have crucified to & in themselves afresh, & have mád themselves drunk with the blood of the Innocent, lying down together, in their beds of Eas, to taken their fill of Dyabolical lov together in the Exercies of all manner of A bominations, & filthiness both of flesh & spirit, until the morning, the good man of the house being gone from hôm, & not to return till the tym apppointed, issuing forth the filthy seed of their corrupt bodies of adultery & whoredom, in a continued succession, throuh and over the nations, to command, govern, feed, and teach the flock of slauhter, every ôn with the number of their blasphemos Nâm, according to their plâs, and degree in the Government & Heraldry of hell, of which their fôrheds are full to wit, Master, worshipful, Rytreverend, gratios, most honorabel, Excellent, noble, welborn, renowned, virtuous, Illustrios, sereen, by & myty Stâts & most myty Invinsibel Emperors, Kings, Prinses, Duke's, Earls, Lords, Baron's Knyts, Esquyrs, Gentlemen, Captain-Lieutenant & Major-Generals, with all other the nams' and tytels' in the Civil and military government (so called) the seed of the adulterer.  
Others called Curates, Chaplains, Priests, Rectors, Deans, Arch-Decons, Bishops, Ryt reverend gratios Lords, Arch-Bishops, Monks, Friars, Nuns, jesuits, Cardinals, Prins-Cardinals, with the ●ops holiness, and all other the blasphemos nâms and titles, in the Eeclesiastical body (so called) the seed of the whôr, all of them under the cursed leagu ', bond, covenant, and Agreement of bell and death, to each of their heads, by the oaths of allegians, and supremacy, scattered up and down the nations as the Egyptian task masters, & midwyus to see that nôn but female children be kept alyv and that the appearans of the mal, the Ryt heir, be murdered, and destroyed in the Birth.  
Others therar called reform churches, who's first rys & appearans was throuh the motion of the Pur Power of God as on the waters, the fas whereof darkness had covered, which was the cry of the souls under the Altar, the cry at midnyt giving warning of the Brydgroms' coming, throuh whom Christ the Angel of the covenant opened, sounded, and Poured forth the fifth, & sixth seal, trumpet, & vyal, (the effects whereof are not yet fully accomplished) whereby the waters of the great river are dried up and the way of the Kings of the East prepared, among whom were many that were as the Egyptian midwyus that feared God, and he mad them houses, and they did eat, and drink in his presence, and he tauht in their streets, and they did prophecy in his name, & cast out devils: which manifestation of the Power of God in and throuh them, was the day known to the Lord, nether clear nor dark, in the evening whereof, the lyt hath appeared, who did not only spar, but nourished, and encouraged the appearans of truth, and righteousness in such in whom it appeared, whereby way was màd for the making ready a peepel prepared for the Lord, and for the birth, & raising up of the Man-chyld that is to Rûl the nations with a Rod of Iron, but now being gone from that of God in them, which on's moved in their predecessors, are become ôn spirit in the ground, with great Babylon the mother of harlots, and abominations, and being found partakers with her in her sins must receiv of her Plagus.  
In them (to wit) the Beast's and falls proset's spirit, and power, are the Angels which kept not their own habitations and the spirits in prison on's rebelios in the days of Noah, which by the wisdom, and Power of God have been reserved and kept, as in chains of darkness, unto the Judgement of this great day, throuh Ages, and generations, in the natural body, as in the Ark, of which that mâd by Noah at the (omand, and direction of God, was a figure in which ark, was not only the seed of God which is pur, in Mankind, and in every creature, but the seed of the serpent also, (as the beloved, and the hated, had conception, and birth in, and throuh ôn womb,) the ôn perserved to the day of salvation, redemption, and deliverans, of the whole creation from the bondag of corruption into the glorios liberty of the Son oh God, & the other reserved to the great day, of Judgement, destruction, & perdition of all ungodly men which day is now come, & the evening and cool of their day approached, & the eyes of them all must now be opened & they shall see that they are naked; the voys of the Lord God they must now hear, & his Ryteos decree, & sentens concerning them, they must avoidable bear, and al●hô they go from rock to Mountain, & from Mountain to hill, yea even amongst the trees of the garden to hyd them selus, yet shall they not be abel to escâp, for a stronger than the strong man is come (who in mesur already hath) & daily môr&môr shall lay hold on him & shall bind him, & cast him out, & spoil all his goods, his children shall be fatherless, & his wife a widow, even vagabonds continually, which shall seek their bread out of desolate plases, yea his habitation shall be desolate for ever, & another taken his plas, the cursed city must now fall flat  the true Israel of God at the sounding of the Rams-horns not a stôn shall be left upon a stone in that cursed building, unthrown down, the three fold cord, that cursed bond of corruption, so subtly, twyned must now be unwound, & untwisted & utterly broken to pieces, never mor to be set together again, and the covenant, and agreement with hell, utterly disannuled, the Lord hath need of the As, & hath sent of his discypels for him, & the As is in mesur loosed, and he in mesur sits thereon, and is in mesur entered into the Tempel, with his whip of small cords, and in mesur hath, and daily mor & mor shall, dryv out all the buyers & selers, and over turn the Tabels of the money changers, to wit, those who at the entrans of every heir & successor, in to the thrón do alter, & change the imag & superscriptions of their money, and the seats of them that sell dous, to wit, those who's counsels, and country uments have been, & stilar, how to oppress, Spoil, and make a prey of the innocent, his arm is mâd bâr & his hand stretched forth which shall not be drawn back till he hath done, & finished his work, his strange work, and brouht to Pas, & accomplished his act, his strange act he will not cease to over turn, Overturn, Overturn, till he come who's Ryt it is, and he will giv it him.  
And now of what hath been here declared, concerning thee O Leopold, and thoe O Pòp of Ròm, with all Kings, Prinses, Rulers, & Governors, & all in Authority under you, of what Degree, Rank, Or order soever, whether, Military, Civil, Spiritual, Or Ecclesiastical (so called) and all Peepel, Hylas & Low, Rich and Poor, Small, & great, Bond & free, Màl, & Female, of what Nams, Orders, Forms, & profesion in Religion soever known, even whole Christendom, with all the Dominions & territories thereunto belonging, of what Nation, tongue ' or languag soever, & every particular person in them contained, who are under the command, Government, and teaching of Man, This is the sum.  
That a cursed spirit of Apostasy, & falling away, from the true Christian faith, life and Practice, even the mystery of inquity, which was fôr seen, & fôr told by the holy Profets, and servants of God, recorded in though scriptures of truth, took plàs in thee O Christendom, even in thy Elders, and teachers, which throuh them hath grown, & spread itself, as evil leven throuhout the whole lomp, that cursed seed of the Serpent hath grown up in thee, not only in thy Elders & teachers, but also throuh them, in thy Rulers, war ●●rs, & Peepel, & is become a Man of sin, & mystery of iniquity even the Son of perdition, yea a strong man armed with the dragon's Power keeping possession of the house, to wit of thee O Christendom, sitting as God in thee, who ouhtst of ryt to be a living Tempel, for the true, & living Lod God omnipotent to dwol, and walk in.  
Which hath rendered thy Military Power even the whole body of them to be the great Reed Dragon that gav to the beast his power, seat, and great Authority, with seven heads, ten horns, & seven crowns, upon his head, which hath, & still doth stand  the woman, which did, & now doth bring forth the man-chyld, who in mesur doth and daily môr shall Rûl the nations with a Rod of Iron, who failing in his first enterpries against the bâb of glory, & being cast out of heaven into the earth, hath, & still doth persecut the woman, which did, and now doth bring forth the Man-chyld, & hath & doth cast out water as a flood out of his mouth to carry her away therewith, making war with the Remnant of her seed which keeps the commandments of God, & have the testimony of Jesus, even the arm of the ungodly which must now be broken, a standing engyn to oppress, spoil & consume the treasure, & blood of the nations.  
Whos Rys & continuans to this day, is in the spirit of the old serpent which was in Cain & in Simeon & Levy those brethren in Iniquity, in who's habitations are the cursed Instruments of Murder, Blood & cruelty, who's practice was, and still is, whilst pretending overturs & treaties of pease, & agreement, to seek & taken advantages, to Kil, Murder, & Destroy But the day is now come, in which they must receiv their Just Reward from the Lord God & they shall be divided in jacob, & scattered in Israel, & a Fugityv, & vagabond on the earth, from the Lord God for ever must that Power and spirit be, in which they stand, and by which they are acted.  
Thy Civil Power (so called) even the whole body of them, Emperors, Kings, Prinses, & Rulers, & their predecessors in the fall, have been, & still remain that scarlet coloured beast full of the nams' of Blasphemy having seven heads, & ten horns, which ascended out of the bottomless pit, upon whom the scarlet whôr that adulteros Woman, ●esabel, to wit, the whôl body of thy spiritual men or Clergy, (so called) hath, & still doth sit, which hath màd war with the two witnese of God, and overcome them, who Power, seat & great authority was given and is still upheld by the dragon, or military Power, who's mouth hath uttered great things, & blasphemies, which was to continu trampeling the holy city, forty & two months, opening his mouth in blasphemies even against God, blaspheming his Nàm, tabernakel, and them that dwell in heaven, who hath màd war with the saints & over come them, & hath had, & still hath Power over Kingdoms, tongus, and nations, and was, and still is worses hiped, by all whos Nàms are not written in the Lamb's book of life.  
Their several throns, and Seats of residens, exampels of villainy, & all manner of wickedness to the several, Kingdoms, Dominions, and territories over which they rul, sending forth the stinking smells of vanity, Pride, Lust, Wantones, Whordom, Excess, Drunkenness, vain pleasures, Oppression, Cruelty, Injustis, Deceit, Envy, Murder, & making aprey of the Innocent, such as de part from Iniquity.  
Whos rys & continnans to this day, is in the Spirit of the old Serpent, which was in Cain that city builder, & in Ishmael, Nimrod, & Esau, and in those Kingly Governors of Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities thereabouts, who practice was and still is by strife, contention, and wars to destroy, and murder the Peepel, under their government thereby to wrist Dominion out of the hands of each other, amongst whom just Lot is mâd a prisoner, and captyv.  
But the day is now come, in which Abraham the Brother of Lot is arming his household; & Gideon the Lord's Thresher, with his sharp threshing instrument having teeth, hath taken the field with his three hundred Men, and the Lord will smyt them as in the day of Midian, & mâk their Prinses as Oreb & Zeeb, as Zeba & Zalmunna, which perished at Endor, the habitation of the Spirit of witch craft, and became as dung upon the Erth.  
The Captyr Exyl hasteth to be delivered, and shallbe lifted up out of the pit, and redeemed and brouht bâk, without money, & without pries, but th● prey shall not be taken from the myty, nether shall the lawful capty● be delivered out of his hand, who had descended into the lower most parts of the Earth, even into the Belly of hell, but is now ascended, and ascending up far abov all heavens, leading captivity captyv, giving gifts unto Men, spoiling Principalitys & Powers, even the Potentats, Kings, Prinses, & Rulers of the Darkness of this World, making an open show of them triumphing over them, and trampeling on them in his cross, who is the lyt & life, of Men, & the Wisdom, and Power of God.  
Thy Ecclesiastical Power even the whole body of them, called the Clergy or Spiritual Men with their predecessors in the fall, & apostasy, were, and still are, that great scarlet whore which seateth upon many waters, even the mother of harlots, & abominations of the earth with whom thy Potentats, Kings, Prinses, Rulers, & Peepel, even the whole body of thee O Christendom, have committed spiritual fornication, arrayed in purpel, scarlet and fin linen, deked with gold etc. having a golden cup in her hand full of abomnations, & filthiness of her whordoms, on who's forehead is written, Mystery Babylon the great, the mother of harlots, and abominations of the whole Earth, who hath been, and still remains drunk with the blood of the Saints, and of the Martyrs of jesus.  
Thy several plases of worship, Temples of Ydols, plases of the forms of godliness with out the life and power thereof, which are to be turned from, the whole body of thy worship, as an Altar with an inscription to the unknown God: The several exercyses of prayer, preaching, sacraments singing, with the observation of days, times, & sabbaths, performed and observed, at loathsome, stinking, & most abominnabel in the nostrils of the put God of life; no other but as the offering of swyns flesh, blessing of Ydols, or murdering of men, being performed in that spirit & Power which is enmity against God.  
Whos Rys, and continans to this day is in the spirit of the old serpent, which was in Cain who could offer a sacrifies, & then murder his brother & in Balaam, Athaliah & jezabel, who have ridden the several nations of Christendom as an As for dishonest gain, the wages of unrighteousness, and when the As hath been mâd some times to speak with Man's voys, and treprov their madness, folly and wikedness, he hath been rewarded by them, not only with grievoes stryps, but with spoiling of goods, sins, Imprisonments, banishment, hanging & burning.  
But the Day is now come, in which she must receiv her just, & ryteos reward at the hand of the Lord God, & the Lamb, & in the Cup that she hath filled, must now be filled to her doubel & althô she paint her sâs, & look out at the window and Cry treason, treason, at the appearans of the Ryt heir, whilst the Crown is setting on his head by the Royal Triesthood, in the Holy Tempel of the Lord in the secret of which (towit, honest, Contryt, Humbel, & broken hearts) he hath been hid from her Murderos conspiracy in destroying the seed Royal, & during the tym of the cruel & usurped Reyn of her, and her Husband, (which was the plâs of the beloved's retyrment, until the breaking of the day, and fleeing away of the shadows) yet now must she be thrown out at the window by her own Servants, and be trodden under foot as unsavoury salt, & those dogs, towit, the horns shall hât her, eat her flesh, & burn her with fyr, so that nouht shall be left of her; but the skull, feet, & palms of her hands, the ôn to mâk known their desolate condition, the other to bear them as mourners about the streets, & the palms of their hands to receiv what others shall freely bestow upon them.  
The Profet of the Lord is returned from thecâv, & descending the Mount of God, & trial must now be mâd, which is the living, & true Lord God, and the God which answereth by fyr, he was, is, and for ever shall appear to be the only, living, & true God: Wherefore all ye worshippers of all sorts, of what nâms, & in what forms, & professions soever, without the life and pur Power of God, gather your selus together, every ôn to the worship of your God, with the Masses, Ave-maries, Pater-nosters, Dyrectories, Servis-books, Common Prayers, & Extemporary Devotions, & cry aloud for your God is now falling into asleep out of which he shall never mor awak, he is on a journey from which he shall never mor return, & if audience, & help now fail you, there is no way of escaping for you, but by the two edged sword of the Lord ye must be slauhtered, in to the Lâk of perdition must ye be cast, and the vengeans of Eternal fyr seize upon you.  
Thy Schools, Colleges & Vniversitys are as so many standing, stinking ponds of corrupt, Infectios, & poisoning waters, corruptin, & infecting Man kind even from their chyldhood raising, quickening, & nourishing that spirit, & Power in them, which is foolishness, & enmity against God, fitting them only to be habitations of Devils to ferv, and worship the devil, the God of the world in their generation, training them up in the learning, and knowledge of tongus, parts, and arts standing in that wisdom, and Power, which is foolishness, and enmity against the pur Lord God.  
Whos rys, and continuans to this day is in the spirit of the old serpent which was in Cain & his posterity, that Liberal-art-inventing-spirit, & in the astrologers of Egypt and Babylon, and those curios liberal Artists, who at the appearans of truth in, and throuh the holy apostles brouht their books together, and burned them openly, though valued at an hy rât, and happy would it be for them, if, at the appearans of truth now, throuh the despised and contemned children of the lyt, they myt be brouht to follow their exampel, for the day is now come, in which they must receiv their just, and ryteos reward at the hand of the Lord God omnipotent, even in the lâk of perdition, and destruction with their lybraries, and suffer the vengeans of eternal fyr, with that body of whordoms, and abominations, of which they are, as it were the womb or generating part.  
Thy Towns, & Cities, are as so many swarms of filthy vermin, sending forth the stinking smells of covetousness, pride, deceit, oppression, vanity idleness, lust, whoredom, drunkenness, gluttony, and all Manner of unryteos and abominabel practices. But the day is now come, in which they must receiv the just reward of their do, and be daily mor, and mor depopulated, and the great, and fair houses stand without Inhabitants, and shall waste, and consume away until they become as unwaled villages.  
Thy courts of judicatur with their dependanses, to wit, those called judges, Doctors & Sergeants at Law, Counsellors, Advocats, Aturnys, Solicitors, clarks, & scrybs so many, seats and instruments of cruel oppresion injustis, bribery, and extortion, even a most intolerabel burden to the peepel of the several nations, tongus, & languages, Amongst whom they Exercies dominion, who in stead of doing them justis, ending their differenses & reconcyling them to ôn another, mâk aprey of them, laying burdens on them grievoes and hevy to be born, but not touching them to help or eas them with ôn of their fingers, causing them to spend their tym, wear out their bodies, vex, and torment their Spirits, waste, and consume their Estates in waiting, and attending on them, and yet to fail of their expected issue from them. But the day is now come, in which they also shall receiv the just reward of their dongs, even wrath, woe, misery, and destruction from the presence of the Lord God, and the glory of his pur power, in the lâk with that Beastly Body of which they are members, who's cursed and oppresing Power they represent & Exercies.  
Thy several sorts of Merchants, buyers, selers & traders, in ships, shops, Wâr-houses, Ins, victualing-houses, fayrs, and markets, with their weihts, and mesurs: so many plases, instruments, and inventions in ways of comers in that spirit which is enmity against God, who's practices have been, & still are to hoard up the several stôrs, & provisions of the house of God, till they somtyms corrupt, rot, and spoil whilst many poor cretursly up and down streets, & villages hungry, cold, & in want of clothing pining away, and perishing for want of the creturs (which spoil, and oppresion must now be charged on them) making marchandies of the gifts of God, which all flow from the ôn gift which he freely gav to the children of men, without respect to persons, somtyms deceitfully mingling the Creturs, the corrupt with the sound, putting on them deceitful colours and garnishings, to increase their dishonest gain by them, the seler using many deceitful words about the goodness of them, & the Buyer the lyk to undervalu them, the seler often times taking advantag on the want necessity, and ignorans of the buyer; & the buyer oftentyms doing the same to the seler, using also ways of dec●it to make the creturs to weih the hevier, & fill the mesur sooner than otherwys it would, and thus the spirit of covetousness, deceit, theft, & oppression acteth both buyer, & seler.  
But the day is now come, in which they also must receiv the just, & ryteos reward of their do from the ryteos Lord God omnipotent, the hand of the Lord is smiting at all your dishonest gain: VVo, misery, weeping, & bitter howling, & lamentation must now be (daily mor, & mor) your portions, death and withering is now seizing on you, which shall continu, until your ships, shops, Ins, victualing-houses, fayrs & marktes weihts and mesurs, cease to be frequented or mad ùs of, The Lord will recover his corn, win, wool, and flax even all the stors of his house out of your hands and will feed, &  his household himself, and giv them food, & raiment in du season, and in du proportion, & all who shall put●r ôr either on their backs, or into their bells, shall receiv in themselves the just reward of their own shâm, and folly from the Lord God.  
Thy several Nations, Kindred's, Tengu's, and Languages are as the dispersed, divyded, and confounded bvilders of babel, as so many several fields over grown with brambels, bushes, briars, and thorns, abounding bounding in all manner of the cursed fruits of the seed of the old serpent ready rip to be cut down, & consumed, by the vengeans of the eternal fyr of God's just, & Ryteos wrath, & vengeans, which is now broken forth on them and shall daily môr, and môr be revealed from heaven against them.  
Thy whole body even head and tail, branch and Root, rulers, wariors, priests & peppel, by & low, rich & poor, bond and free, great and small, mâl & female, even all under the dragon's beast's, & falls profets, spirit, & Power, are a corrupted loathsome, & defiled body of sin & death, even the body of that beast which Daniel in the spirit of prophecy saw; which is now to be slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flâms: by all which it hath, & doth appear, that great hath been, & is the mystery of Iniquity, to wit, the old serrpent, the God of the world, the devil, mâd manifest in flesh, & now Judged and condemned in the put Power of the eternal spirit, seen, and comprehended by Angels, believed on, & worshipped in the world, by all who's nâms are not written in the lambs book of life, and now thrusting down to everlasting shame, & contemt, & suffer the vengeans of eternal fyr) where by the habitabel parts of the earth have been the cross, on which the lamb, slain from the foundation of the world which lieth in wicdednes, hath been crucified, and mankind ground, throuh woe, misery, grief and pyan, as betwixt the nether and upper milstons (to wit) that cursed, cruel, oppresing & hellish power, & dominion which hath been, & still is exercised over man kind, by such as have, & still do rûl over them in the spirit, and Power of the old serpent the devil, as the Nether mil-ston. And those just & ryteos Judgements, tribulation, & wrath, of God which have seized on body soul, & spirit of every particular that hath done evil, as the upper milston. So that the Eden of God hath been mâd as a desolate wilderness, the house of liberty, & freedom, a house of misery, thraldom & cruel bondag; the Tempel, and seat of God, the synagogu ' of sathan; even the throne, and seat of the Man of sin sitting in it as God; the house of prayer, A den of murdering thieus & Robers, and the garden of the Lord a field of blood, and murder.  
But the voys is go● forth from the Lord God, who's words are spirit, life, and Power for Man's return, and as Mankind comes to inclyn the ear, and heart, to hear, and obey the reproofs of instruction in the inward parts, which is the way of life, and door of Eternal salvation, the vois of this cursed mil shall cease, and the nether stone there of be cast into the bottom of the Sea never to aries mor, and the upper stone, in mercy and lov, by the Lord, be removed, and so the field of blood, & cruelty shall be come the garden of the Lord, in which Mankind shall dwell, & walk, reconciled unto God, & ôn to another united together in the everlasting bond, & Covenant of pur life, lov, Peas & Ryteosues, never mor to be forgotten, & the den of thieus, a House of Prayer to all Nations, & Generations: the Thrôn, & seat of the Man of sin, the Tempel, seat & Thrôn of the living, and pur God: the House of misery, thraldom, & bondag', the plâs of the glorios Manifestation, & enjoyment of the glorios freedom, & liberty of the Son of God, & the desolate Wilderness, shall become the Eden of God.  
Throuh all which Mankind hath, & yet mor perfectly shall, experiens the differens betwixt the cursed fruits of the ways of his own choice, and the sweet, pleasant, & blessed fruits of abiding in that stât of pur Lyf, Lov, Peas, righteousness, & Dominion over the works of God's hands, in which he was plase  the entrans of sin, & transgression, & to which Christ the Lyt, Wisdom, & Power of God in mâl & femâl is now redeeming & restoring Mankind again into.  
Wherefore, o thou Leopold & thou o Póp of Róm, & all ye Kings, 
The Body arraigned.  Prinses, Rulers, & Governors, with all in Power under you of what degree rank, or order soever, whether Military, Civil, Spiritual, or Ecclesiastical (so called) & all ye Peepel, hy & low rich, & poor, bond & free, small & great, mál & femâl, even the whole body of thee O Christendom with all the Dominions, & Territories to thee belonging, & every particular Person comprehended in them, who are under the Command, Government & teachings of Man.  

& summoned to Answer she charge.  Stand up, & see what thou canst say forty self, as to this charge of by cryms, great provocations, & bloody abominations, which on the behalf of God, his crucified Son, his grieved Spirit, his murdered Saints, his burdened & cruelly oppresed Peepel, is now prodused against thee; For to the Bar, & great Tribunal, of the Living, Eternal, Ryteos, Just, Pur, & Powerful Lord God omnipotent; Who is a consuming fyr, & everlasting burn to all the workers of iniquity, art thou now brouht; And strong is the Lord God who judgeth thee, his most Ryteos wrath plagu's, & vengenas thou canst not escap, out of his hand non is abel to deliver ther.  
If thou seekest to justify thyself, & plead not Guilty. Thou canst not answer ôn of a thousand: Thy abominable Excess, Pride, 
Excess, Pride, etc.  Drunkenens, Gluttony, & Ambition, testifieth against thee to thy very sâs; In thes thou art seen, & known a far of, in the many varios, & vain fashions of attyr, deked with costly, vain, Lyr, & needles, ornaments, with thy stout▪ & lofty looks, countenanses, speeches, deportments, & carriages.  

Cruelty & Oppression.  If of cruelty & oppresion thou wouldst clear thyself, even a numberless number of witnese bear testimony against thee, tovvit the Groans, general complaints, & cries of all sorts of Peepel, Nations, Tongus, & Languages under t●y government, of the intolerabel burdens, and oppresions, through the Dragon's ', Beast's, & falls Profet's Power in thee; By Taxes, Tyths, robing, spoiling, plundering, bereaving them of their outward, enjoyments, fruits of their labours, & industry: The noys, & daily ratteling of the Iron fetters of the Slaves, besyds the many dark hôls, & Cells, with the many Raks, & other cursed Instruments, of secret, & open cruelty, torturings, & murder, as also the great, & grievos pains, wounds & torturings which thousands of innocent Persons, have secretly, and openly sustained by them, at thy hands, in ages passed unto this very day; As also the many Innocent, and harmless persons, who in this age have and still do lie ensnared in Hôls, Prison houses, nasty & stinking plases, & dungeons, being mâd a spoil, & a prey of, and non saith deliver.  
If from idolatry, & falls Worship thou wouldst offer any thing to clear thyself: Then sûrly the numberless number, of graven, & Molten-Images, Crucifixes and Pictures, in thy hy ways, markets, streets, courts of judicatur, Ydol Temples, dweling houses, 
Idolatry.  and carried about the bodies of thy inhabitants, myt mâk thee blush for shâm, and stop thy mouth, & for ever render thee speechless: Besyds the daily bowing, cringing, kneeling and babbling of thy Priests, & Peepel in an unknown tongue '  them, & much môr myt be prodused.  

Persecution & bloodshed of the Innocent.  If from the guilt of Innocent Blood thou wouldst go about to wyp thy mouth or wash thy hands, then surly the records of the many dear Innocent & holy Servants of the Lord, Saints, Martyrs, & faithful witnese of jesus, both mâl & femâl, who have been secretly & openly, murdered, by hanging, burning, and dyvers other Anti-christian, and cruel ways put to death in thee O Christendom, giv loud, and sufficient evidens against thee to stop thy mouth, & render thee speechless, against whom thou hadst nothing but as concerning the law of their God, some whereof being put to Doth not many months' sins by hanging, even in New England, which are still fresh in memory, even at the hands of such as not long sins, left their own natyy Country, under a pretense to avoid persecution from others, and enjoy liberty of Consciens in matters of Religion & worship themselves, which hath rendered their cruelty, and Murder, dôn upon my Brethren & Sister; those innocent Servants of the Lord, much mòr grievoes, impios, and abominabel, besuds their cruel, and Antichristian deal with many Others, by fyns, cruel imprisonments, spoiling of goods, banishment, & cutting of ears.  
Further mor if thy Heads & Rulers in the Military, civil, and Ecclesiastical Power (so called) shall plead a Ryt in & over the nations, by heir ship, Succesion & ancient prescription, and so go about to justify all their oppresions, wars, murder & wickedness, as being lawful to do what they will with their own.  
To it I answer, that all pleas of Ryt by heir ship, succesion, and ancient prescription, which have not their foundation in the Pur law of lyt & life, & sound reason which is of God, are nul and void; That heirship, and succession which is unsound, and rotten in the ground, and foundation, can never be màd sound & good by ancient prescription; But on the contrary, it renders the heirs and successors in such claims, by so much the môr deeply guilty, and lyabel to the greater and môr hevy Judgement, and condemnation. Now it may, & Doth appear by records of truth; That the ground & foundation of that Power in which ye stand as to Christendom was laid in deceit, 
The foundation of the present Civil and Ecclesiastical government, so ca●ed.  unfaithfulness, treachery, Murder and Apostasy (though as to the antiquity of prescription it is of a larger extent than perhaps your selus, may plead, or think Its original, root & spring being from that old Serpentyn Spirit, which was a liar, & a Murderer from the beginning of the World which lieth in wickedness.) But your original Predecessor in that Power & Spirit in which ye stand as to Christendom (viz. julius Caesar) being entrusted as Captain General, or Commander in Chief of the Military forses, under the Roman Counsel, in whom the Power was then residing, did, with those confederate with him, grasp the Military Power into his own hand, & therewith wrested the Power of Government out of their hands & set up himself as Chief head.  

The guilt of Christ's blood lieth  Sins which usurpation, Christ jesus that innocent lamb of God was cruelly murdered, and crucified, without the gâts of Jerusalem, who's innocency was by Pylat three times acknowledged, 
upon the Government.  openly  the peepel who althô he washed his hands yet was not thereby clear of the guilt of the Innocent blood, of that just man being, by him sentenced & delivered to the Jews to be crucified who was a Roman judge, a member of that sâm body of Power in which ye stand, & what he did therein, he did it not as a particular person, but as a representer, & executioner of the Roman Power, so that the guilt of the Innocent blood of that just man, stands not only chargabel on him, but on that Power of which he was a member, and which he represented, and executed, of which spirit, and Power ye are the Heirs & successors; & Pylat in the inscription which he caused to be set over his head, acknowledged him to be jesus of nazareth King of the jews, which inscription ye also cause to be put on the croses which ye s●t up as in Remembrans of him, and in words acknowledge him to be the son, & heir of God, & of all things that are of God, King of Kings, & Lord of Lords, entyteling your selus to the Kingdoms, Dominions, and teritories over which ye rûl, by the Grâs of God; 
They that are, Kings by the grâs of God, must be children of God, born of him; & do his, not the Devils works.  the fullness whereof dwelled bodily in Christ, caling your selus Christian Emperors Kings, Prinses, & Rulers; and with joint consent, acknowledge your several Kingdoms, Dominions and territories to be altogether, Christendom, which Importeth no les, than that they are Christ's Kingdom, so that unless ye be in truth, what ye profess your selus to be, to wit, children of God, Christian Emperors, Kings, Prinses, & Rulers, mad so by the grâs of God, which renders all who truly partak there of, to be the children of God, and fellow heirs with Christ, of all things; then by your own confessions ye are but a company of usurpers, & oppressors, and have no true Ryt to exercies dominion over the nations in that spirit, & Power in which ye stand, and by which ye are acted.  
Now the scriptures of truth say, that he that is born of God doth not commit sin, and that herein are the children of God, and of the Devil mâd manifest, & he that saith he abideth in Christ ouht to walk even as he walked; the jews of old said they were the children of Abraham, but they being found in ways of deceit, hypocrisy, Oppression, Idolatry, persecution, and murdering the Innocent saints, and holy profets of the Lord, Christ told them they were children of their father the Devil, being found doing his works, so that if ye be found commiting of sin, and not walking as Christ walked, and guilty of thôs evil practices which the Jews were, then are ye, not such as are born of God, nor true Christian Emperors, Kings, Prinses, and Rulers, by the grâs of God, but the children of that Father whos works ye do: and a company of usurpers such as have no true Ryt, to exercies Dominion over the nations: But that ye are such, is plain, and evident in the precedent charge, evidensed by a cloud of witnese and therefore your claim of Ryt, by heir-ship, & prescription is rotten, nul, & void.  

What it is to be Christ's vicar.  And for the Pôp to affirm himself to be Christ's Vicar; it Implieth no les than to represent his person, & in his spirit, and Power to do his work, now it's recorded of Christ, that he was meek and lowly in heart, holy, harmless, undesyled & separate from sin, & siners in life, going up & down doing good reproving sin, teaching, and exhorting peepel to ways of mercy, truth righteousness, purity, meekness, humility, and holiness; But that the Pop is found acted by a spirit and in a practice of direct antipathy against the Spirit of Christ and so is rendered to be the Antichrist, is plain, and evident in the precedent charge, evidensed by a cloud of witnese, and therefore his pretense of being Christ's vicar is falls, & void.  

The Pop succeedeth Peter, as Sin succeeded innocency in order of tym; or as a thorn doth a vyn when it grows in the same plas where ●ns a vyn did grow.  And for the Pôp to say he is Peter's Successor, Importeth no les than to represent his person, & in his spirit & Power to do his work: Now Peter in his epistle, upon record saith thus, the elders which are amongst you l exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the suffering of Christ, a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed; feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversyt thereof, not by constraint but wilingly, nor for filthy lucre but of a ready mind, nether as being Lords over God's heritag, but as being (good exampels to the flock, that when the great shepherd shall appear, ye may receiv a crown of glory that fadeth not away.  
But that the Póp is found nether in that spirit or work in which Peter was, is plain, and evident in the precedent charge, evidensed by a cloud of witnese; and therefore his claim of being Peter's successor is falls & void also.  
And for the whole body of thy Ecclesiastical Power (so called) with all the worshippers to them belonging, to affirm themselves to be the true church, and faithful spous of Christ; the holy church which on's appeared, and was mâd manifest in, and throuh the saints which dwelled at Rôm, It importeth no les, than that they must be found holding the sâm pur mystery of faith in a pur consciens, & be the called, and sanctified of God according to his purpose, walking in the sâm holy fellowship in the Spirit of truth, which the saints of the church of Christ, which in the Apostels' days appeared in Rôm, held, & walked in.  
But that thy Ecclesiastical body or clergy (so called) with all the worshippers to them belonging are corrupt in Doctrine, fellowship & conversation, and fallen away, and apostatysed from that Pur Doctrine worship, fellowship, & holy conversation, with was held, & walked in by them, is Plain, & evident in the precedent charge, evidensedby a cloud of witnese, & therefore their claim of being the holy Church of Róm is falls, & void also.  
So that upon the whole O Christendom, thou art found to be the household of an old thief, a cruel oppresing murderer, and a most filthy abominabel whore, standing naked in the sit of God, Angels, and Men, & found guilty of all those great provocations, and bloody abominations which in the precedent charge is prodused against thee.

not the bred & cup of blessing; but a curs, even the tabel of devils, not the cheering, & refreshing of God, & man, but the nourishing of the Brambel nature, who's nature & work is to consume devour▪ & destroy: it's the poor & needy, the hungry & thirsty soul, which the Lord fills, & satisfyeth with good things, even with his blessing, both to the outward, & Inward man, but the Rich & the full, he sendeth emty away, even with a curs.  
And althô the Kingdom, the Power of God, hath, and still doth suffer vyolens, both in the natural, and spiritual body, yet so it ouht not to be, but all both in the natural, and Spiritual body, ouht to be subject to the motions of the eternal quickening Power, to rest, and may in it, in all things, without offering for'rs or vyolens thereunto; which is Christ, the Lord that quikening Spirit in mâl, and female, not only in mankind but to & in every cretur, & therefore the charge was, & still is unto the dauhters of Jerusalem, that they stir not up or awak the beloved till he pleas, which is the daily Cros of Christ to the carnal mind, but the lyt, sweet, Pleasant, and easy yaok and burden of Christ to the spiritual mind, in which true pur rest, & pease to the soul, is eternaly to be found, & as in the free pur motion of his eternal pur Power, all comes to dwell, and abid, so the Pur peasabel, & Pleasant fruits of righteousness, & holiness comes to be brouht forth in their proper tym, & season, & in their pur lustre glory, & Beauty, & the wonderful, & mysterios ways of the serpent on the rock, the eagel in the air, & the ship in the midst of the sea and the way of the man with the maid, (to wit the mysteries both of iniquity & godliness) comes to be truly known and comprehended, and the creation con forted, as concerning that misery, toil, and curs, under with it groans in the general, & in the particular, by reason of the ground which the Lord hath cursed: And the woman saved in chyld-bearning, both má; l, & female; The spous the bride, the tambs wife, the King's dauhter, who is all glorios within, with who's Pur beauty, and comeliness, the King's heart is ravished, & he held in the gallery who is greater than Solomon, yea her feet are beautiful with shoe, which he is now casting over Edom the strong city, which is Efau, in which the Wolf shall dwell with the lamb, & the Leopard lie down with the kid (among the goats) they shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain saith the Lord, wherefore aries my lov, my fair ôn, and come away, the winter as to thee is neerhand passed, the stormy Rain, and showers near hand over, and gone, the sweet smeling, tender flowers appear in, throuh, & abov the Earth, the tym of the singing of the birds is in mesur come, the voys of the turtle is heard in our Land, the figtree putteth forth her green figs, and the vyns with the dear tender grâps, giy a goodly smell wherefore aries my lov, my fair o, and come away.  
In that Spirit which offereth for'rs or vyolens to the Power of God, is the Barren womb that never saith it is enuf, the adulterer, and the Adulteres, which hunts for the pretios life, even the Spirit of sorcery and witchcraft, Balaams' Spirit, the witch of Endor which Israel ouht not to suffer to liv: I speak not of destroying the life of the eretur, but that astop & death may be brouht over that Spirit in Mál● and femâl, which offereth for'rs, and vyclens to the Power of God, in this is the Spirit of Saul, that is not wiling to wait the Lords leisur, which at both ôn in the ground; as well that which is not wiling to wait, as that which offereth for'rs and vyolens to get an answer, for rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft in this also is the ground of the falls, and lying Spirit of Prophecy, who failing in their work of offering for'rs and vyolens to the Power of God, run in there own wills, uttering forth the divinations and Imaginations, of their own brains, as also that Spirit, which runeth forth hastily, & rashly to judge, & censur others, whos words or works may possibly be brouht forth in the motion of the Power of God, though throuh much weakness, such do not only offer for'rs, & vyolens to the Power of God in themselves, but griev, oppress, & quench it in others, & hens it comes to pa● somtyms, that the bruised Reed is broken, and the smoking Flax quenched, and the Appel of Gods Ey touched, and the little ôn offended: And from this root springeth the fearful, & unbelieving Spirk also, which is fearful & unwiling to mov or go, when the true Powertroly mous, and draws, which are all to be shut out of the Holy City among the Dogs: Which offering for'rs or vyolens to the Power of God in mâl or fen âl, is the reaching forth the hand to lay hold on and eat of the forbidden tree, and fruit thereof, by which fin, and transgression entered, and entereth. The door or way by which all the woe', miseries, plagus, madness, folly, & curses, not only on Mankind, but on the whole body of the creation, past, present and to come, entered, and entereth.  
And he hath in mesur opened, sounded, and poured forth the sixth seal, trumpet, and vyal, & the effects thereof have, do, and shall daily mor, and mor appear; the great Erthquak is in mesur come, & daily mor, & mor coming ôn thee O Christandom: Thy sun is become black & dark and thy Moon already hath, and daily mor and mor shall be come blood: Thy stars in the sur do and daily mor and mor shall fall to the earth: Thy heavens are in mesur departed, and shall daily mor and mor departed as ascroul: The Mountains, and ills in thee, are in Mesur removed, and shall daily mor, and mor be removed out of their plases till all become a dlayn: Thy Kings, great on's, Rich men, chief captains & myty men, & every bond man, and every free man, shall say to the Roks, and mountains fall on us and hid us from the presence of him that siteth on the thrôn, & from the wrath of the lamb, for the great day of his wrath is come, & none shall be abel to stand, the first woe is past, the waters of the great River Euphrates are dried up, and the way of the Kings of the east, perpared: The dov, (in mesur) hath found rest for the sole of her foot, and is returned with an Oliv branch in her mouth: The four Angels bound in the great River Euphrates, are near hand losing which are prepared for an hour a day, a month and a year, to slay the third part of men. The Spirit of life from God is entered into the slain witnese, and they are in mesur standing on their own feet in England, Scotland, and Yrland, & the dominions, and territories thereunto belonging, and great fear hath seized, & is seizing on them that see them, and they are ascending up to heaven in a Cloud, in the sit of their enemies which witnese are ôn in Christ, who, not only in his own holy, pur, undefyled & spotless conversation, good works, mirakels and preaching bôr testimony to the truth, and against the wickedness of that generation, witnesing a good confession  Pontius Pylat, sealing, and finishing the same, with laying down his own Pretios life & blood upon a cross without the gats of jerusalem, in that body in which he then appeared; but hath done & suffered the same, bearing the same witness, in & throuh his holy, harmless, Innocent, and faithful Peepel, even all this tym of the trampeling the holy city under foot, unto this very day▪ which is near hand fully ended, and accomplished, in whom are comprehended the three that bear witness in herens, and on Earth, which àr òn: & agree inòn, tovvit the gift of God the Father unto man, its purging, cleansing, and sanctifying virtue in man; and the blessed, holy, & Pur operations and fruits thereof in & throuh man, in an upryt, holy, harmless, Innocent, and godly conversation; & in the Patient, constant, faithful, & lamb lyk sufferings, which are the spirit water, & blood of the lamb, with which they over come, and stand in Pur Dominion over all their enemies, both in them, and without them: the great Earth quake there, (to wit in England, Scotland, & Yrland) is well nigh over, & the tenth Part of the city near hand fallen, & the seven thousand men of Nàm, Rul, & authority in the Dragon's Beasts, & falls profets spirit & Power near hand slain in the Earth quake, and that which Remains to be done, and fulfilled, on the Dragon's Beast's & falls Proset's Power & spirit, and on the great sea out of which the Beast aros, & the many waters on which the scarlet whore sits, is now in hand, and shall daily mor and mor be carried on till it be finished, fully done and accomplished.  
The Battle of the great day of God almyty is in mesur come, & shall daily mor, and mor appear, he is even come, and coming as a thief in the Nyht, & blessed is he that watcheth, he is gathering them together for the Battle, the Kingdom of the great scarlet coloured beast in thee o Christendom, who's present chief head art thou O Leopold, is now weihed, numbered, & found to lyt, & 666. is determined by the Lord God for the finishing, & putting an end thereunto.  
The lamb is now standing on mount Zion, & the hundred forty & four thousand, are in mesur gathered & daily gathering into him, having his Father's Nam in their for heads. The new heavens are in mesur opened, & the whit horse, & him that siteth there on, in mesur appeareth in his sanctified ôn, who is called the word of God, and in righteousness doth he judge; and make war, & is clothed in a gartment diped & diping in blood, who's name is called faithful, & true & the arms which are in heaven are following of him; out of his mouth goeth as harp sword, with which he (in mesur already) hath & daily mor & mor shall smyt the nations, & rul them with a Rod of Iron, having on his vesture & on his thyh a name written, King of Kings & Lord of Lords, the fouls which fly in the midst of heaven at called & caling to the supper of the great God, & they (in mesur already) have, & daily mor, and mor shall eat the flesh of Kings, & the flesh of Captains, the flesh of myty Men, & the flesh of Horses, & them that sit on them, & of all men both free & bond, small & great: And the Beast & falls Profet, already in mesur hath been, & daily mor, & mor shallbe taken a lyv, & cast into the Lâk of fyr burning with brimstone & all the fouls filled with their flesh in thee o Christendom.  
Great Babylon is now come into Remembrans  God; the gre at City is now divided into three parts, viz catholics, Lutherans, & Calvinists in the Roman Imperial Dominions with this Heads & Hornt; But in England, Scotland, & Yrland, under the nâms of Papists, Episcopacy, & Presbytery, And as for her suburbs, thôs other Nâms & Sects to the highest of them, under the Command, Government & teachings of Man, though they be got A step in form & profession beyond the other, yet being gone from the mesur of the Spirit of grâs in them which drew them, forth (in mesur) to separate in form, life, & practice from the other, they are now become ôn in nature, ground, & practice, with the great whore of Rôm; And being found Partakers with her in her sins, thy must also, avoidable receiv of her Plagus: which great City is in mesur fallen & falling, & as she hath done must now be dôn unto her, yea doubel according to her works, In the cup which she hath filled, must now be filled to her doubel; And according to that heiht in which she hath glorified herself, living delitiosly, so much torment, and sorrow must now be given unto her. The ten Horns on the Beast's Head (in mesur) do and daily mor, and mor shall, hât the whore, make her desolate, and naked, eat her flesh, and burn her with fyr. The was betwixt Michael, & his Angels, & the Dragon, & his Angels is begun, and shall daily mor, and mor appear, and be carried on till it be fully finished; The Lamb & the Saints (in mesur) have, and daily mor and mor shall have pur Victory and Dominion over all his, & their enemies, from the greatest to the least, he that hath led into Captivity must now go into Captivity; And that Spirit in Man which hath kiled with the sword, must now be kiled by the sword, even the sword of the mouth; And the Heavens, even the Spirit of the Holy Profets, & Aposlels, in his Peepel of this present Ag●●, & generation shall rejoys over her, & thus with vyolens shall that great City Spiritual Babylon, Sodom & Egypt be thrown down as agreat Milston into the Sea, & be found no mor at all for ever, for in her is found the Blood, not only of the Profets, & Saints, but of all that have been slain upon the Earth: This Generation shall not pass away until it be fulfilled; thes are the true say of God, he that hath an ear to hear let him hear.  
But for the sak of the burdened oppressed, & slain Seed of God in thee O Leopold, & thee O Póp of Rôm, & all the Kings, Prinses, Rulers, & Governors, with all in Authority under you of what degree, rank or order soever, Whether Civil, Military, or Spiritual and Ecclesiastical (so called) with all Peepel, by and low, rich, and poor, bond and free, small and great, mâl and femâl, of what Nation, Kindred, Tougu or Peepel soever, under the Command, government, and teachings of Man, in the bowels of dear & tender lov, for the sâk of the slain Seed of God in thee O Christendom, to the end that he who is (in mesur) already risen, may daily mor, and mor aries to Judgement in thee, to sav â all the meek of the Earth, & that the Sea & Death, & hell in thee, may mor, and mor deliver up the Deed incorrup●ibel in them, and be judged every ôn according to their works, and that the oppresed, groaning creation in thee, may mor, & mor be delivered from the bondag, of corruption into the glorios▪ liberty of the Sons of God, which is the first Resurrection (in which the Jews shallbe visited) in which all are blesed who have their parts, for on such the second Death, shall have no Power, but the shallbe Priests of God, & of Christ, and Rein with him a thousand Years, which with the Lord is but as ôn day, in the end of which the seven thunders shall utter their voys, the effects whereof, are of a larger Extent than Christendom containing in them, the searching out to the bottom, the hiden things of Esau, and the laying of his mountain also, utterly waste, and desolate, the complete deliverans of the whole creation from the bondag of corruption the destroying of Death, and the full subjection of all Christ's enemies under his feet, the surrendering the Kingdom to the Father, the subjection of the Son also to him that putteth all things under him, and God the Eternal Fountain, and fullness to become all, in, throuh, and over all, to the ends v.  
This I say to thee O Christendom in general, & to every ôn in thee in particular, from the greatest to the least, of what Nation, Tongue, or Peepel soever, dread & fear ye, the living God, stand in awe of him, giv glory, honour, & worship to him alôn, for the day and hour of his most dreadful and ryteos Judgements is now, (in mesur) come, & shall daily mor, and mor appear: let all Bow fear and trembel  him, that mâd heaven, and earth, the sea and fountains of water, and know this, that the great falling away and apostasy from the true Christian Spirit, faith and life had its first entrans in thy teachers, throuh their going out from the mesur of the pur Spirit of grâs, the free gift of God, given to them, and plase in them, of the pur fullness of Christ, the lamb of God, to lead and establish them in all truth, and giving ear to the voys motions, and dictates of the Carnal mind, that cursed spirit the seed of the serpent, whereby sin, and death entered, and the la of it took plâs in them, and throuh them hath spread itself, throuh, and over the whole body of thee O Christendom, which hath rendered thee a body of sin, and death, in the general, and in every particular.  
From this cursed root of bitterness hath sprung up that abominabel Spirit of covetousness, pride, wickedness, oppresion, Idolatry, cruelty, wars, strife contentions, debats, & shedding the blood of the Innocent, with all other the hy cryms provokations, and bloody abominations, which have been, & still are found in thee, which hath rendered thee to be the dragon, beast, great whore, and falls profet, in thy military, civil, & Ecclesiastical Power (so called) and thy peepel unstabel as water, even the great raging sea, which cannot rest foaming out its own shâm, casting up Myr and dirt, out of which the scarlet coloured beast aros, who Power, seat & great authority, was given him, (& is still up held) by the great red dragon, to wit the military power which hath rendered thee to be an Akeldama, even a field of blood, oppresion & cruelty, full of hie cryms, & abominations, even Spiritual Sodom & Egypt, in which the Lord lieth crucified.  
And now there is no way of restoration from this falling away, & cursed apostasy from the true Christian Spirit, faith and life, & to know redemption from sin death, and from under the law, sting, curs, & power there of either to the general or any particular, but by returning the Ey, and ear of the mind, to that which is pur eternal, and Immortal of God in the inward parts, even the mesur of the true lyt, and Spirit of the free grâs of God, in the general, and in every Particular, from which every on in the general, & in the particular, in thee hath erred, & gone astray, and as every ôn either in the general or particular, comes to giv ear to the motions cries, & groans of the oppresed pur seed of God in them they will come to see him, whom they have pierced and as that which doth burden, oppress, & keep the pur seed of God in bondag, comes to be removed, mortified, & subdued, Ether in the general or in the particular, so his pur Power, Spirit, life, and presence will be felt working salvation, & redemption in the Earth, and be known by the Judgements which he executeth in the earth, in the general, & in the particular, throuh which ryteos Judgements in the Inward parts, salvation & true redemption comes to be known, & witnesed.  
So that eternal Judgement in the inward parts being brouht forth into victory, at last he comes to aries and rain, in pur Power, life & Dominion overall, who ryt it is, both in the general, & in every particular, even he who leads all who are led by him, in the pur pleasant & everlasting path of pur lyt, lov, life, righteousness, everlasting joy, & happiness, even forevermor.  
A door of hôp is left open for you in the valley of Anchor, & as the just and ryteos Judgements of the Lord ●om there to be executed on the troubler of Israel, (in the inward parts) with his vvedg of gold, babylonish Garment and Silver, with his seed, and all that he hath; so an entrans will be administered, in & throuh Christ the lyt, way, & eternal door, by which all who enter in, have salvation, and come to be reconciled unto God, and saved from wrath which is to come.  
This is the Zoar into which all who flee, are saf from the devouring fyr, which from the Lord is now come, and coming upon Spiritual Sodom in thee: This is the Ark of the new (yet most old) and everlasting covenant, into which all who make speed, & get entrans, shall escap the great delug, & overflowing flood which God is now bringing in upon the world of the ungodly: this is the cloud, and Pillar of fyr in man, which all who faithfully, and constantly follow, are sâfly led throuh the wilderness, of temtations, fears & snars, which God is now raining down upon the workers of Iniquity: This is the strong tower, in which all who are found, are sâf from the horribel tempest, which is now come, & coming upon the Proud and all that do wickedly in thee: O Christendom. This is the little sanctuary in which all that hyd, themselves, the blast of the teribel ôns against them, shall be but a a storm against a wall: This is the holy Mountain, who's Inhabitants the oppreser or destroyer, cannot touch or hurt: This is the city of most sur refug, who's walls, and bulwarks are salvation, and the gâts thereof prays, into which nothing can enter that defileth, or worketh abomination, though the gâts thereof stand open continually, who's inhabitants can & do truly say, though the earth be removed yet we will not fear, though the mountains be hurled into the midst of the sea, yet will we not be dismayed, though the waters thereof roar, & be troubled, & the mountains shàk & fall with the sweling thereof; for there is a River the streams whereof make glad the city of God; the holy plas of the tabernakel of the most by: the living God is in the midst of her, she cannot be moved: God shall help her, & that Ryt early.  
Wherefore I say unto all, and it is the counsel of the Lord God to them in the bowels of pur, and tender lov, to his own oppresed, burdened, & slain seed in thee o● Christendom, & in every particular; make haste mâk hast do not stay nor linger, but speedily turn in hither, lest the storm, the dreadful storm of the most Just, & ryteos vengeans, & Jndignation of God, which remains at hand to be poured forth, overtak you, & ye perish in the same, for all who are found ering from, and walking contrary to the mesur of the Spirit of the grâs of God in them will be found partaking with Babylon in her sins & must receiv of her plagus: Your strength is to stand still, your work is to do nothing, your wisdom is to become fools, & patiently to wait to feel him to aries in you, and bring salvation, and work all your works in you, & for you for ever mor; which all who come truly to experiens, do enter into his rest, which is pùr, and eternal, & come to cease from their own works as God did from his.  
On thing mor I may not omit, that so the Lord, and his servant may be clear of the blood of all mankind, which was foreseen and declared by the Lord of life, & Prins of pur pease in the days of his flesh, to wit, that there should come many in his name, & say, that they are Christ, and deceiv many, showing great sins, and wonders in so much, that if it were possibel, they should deceiv the very elect.  
The day is now come, & coming in which it shall be fulfilled; The ground of the coming & appearans of such, hath been for some tym laid & working in thousands, who go under the nâm of fift-Monarchy Peepel, with many other; who from an imagnation of their own brains, gathered from the letter of the scriptures, expect, and look for the appearans, and coming of Christ, in that same body of flesh, in which he appeared, lived and suffered death upon a cross without the gats of Jerusalem, out of the material clouds, & visibel heavens, and gather peopel unto him, as an outward glorios king, or great monarch & by carnal weapons, with an arm of flesh, to overturn, kill, & destroy out wardly, the persons of such as oppos him and them, and rein a thousand years.  
Wherefore, when any such do appear, go not after them, nether be ye deceived by them for destruction and misery are in their path, and the way of true pur, and everlasting pease they know not, & both them & all others may know, that the appearans, and coming of Christ, & setting up of his Kingdom, which is pureternal, and everlasting, is in the lyt, or as lytning, which cometh out of the east, & shineth into the west, as himself testified, and that his Kingdom is within & comes not by observation.  
But as for the treading of the Wyn pres of the fires wrath of God all myty, it is to be trodden without the holy city, and the appearans, 
The setting up of Christ's Kingdom in the generaelis effected in the same manner as in euch particular soul.  coming & setting up of the Kingdom of Christ, is the same in the general as in every particular, to wit, not by outward myt, and carnal for'rs, & Power, destroying men's lyus, but by the sword of his mouth which is quik and Powerful in the Inward parts, to discovet, consume & root out the ground of all unrighteousness in men: and throuh their holy conversations, & faithful testimony to, & their innocent, & lamblyk sufferings for that mesur, or Power of truth into which themselves are brouht they do●overcom, bring down, and in pur life, and dominion trampel upon the contrary Spirit in them selus, & in others, both in the particular, and in the general.  
And concerning England, Scotland and Yrland, with the dominions, and territories thereunto belonging, this I further say, that the seventh seal, trumpet, & vyal is in mesur opened, sounded and poured forth intot he air which shall quyt stop the breath of the dragon's beasts & falls Profet's Power, & Spirit in them, & as to them, tym shall be no mor as such.  
Now is the expeling of all typs, figurs, clouds & shadows, Carnal ordinanses, dispensations, declarations & administrations, which have been over, yet pointing at, the most true, eternal and excellent lyt, life, glory and substans, & the opening of all dark say, speeches, and parabels upon the sweet Melodios harp of David, and the tangue which is as the Pen of a Ready writer & the finishing of the mystery of God.  
Wherefore rejoys, O thou afflicted, & drunken, but not with win, for great is the holy òn in the midst of thee; the enemies rock is not lyk unto thy rock, even themselves being judges; there is no God lyk unto thy God, who rideth upon the heavens for thy help, & in his excellency on the skies, the eternal God is thy refug, & underneath are the everlasting arms, & he shall thrust out the enemy from  thee, and shall say destroy them; and thou, the true Israel of God, the Noble Plant, the Royal seed, the holy nation, shalt dwell safely as in unwaled villages, upon a land of corn and Wyn; thy heavens do, & daily mor and mor shall, drop down the sweet, living, & eternally refreshing dew; happy art thou O seed of the God of jacob, there is none among all the families of the Earth, lyk unto thee O Peepel saved by the Lord, who is the shield of thy help, & the sword of thy excellency, thy enemies are, & daily mor & mor shall be found liars unto thee, and thou (in mesur) dost & daily mor and mor shalt, tread upon their hy plases.  
For thus saith the Lord, even the Lord thy God, which pleadeth the cause of his Peepel, behold I will now taken out of thy hand the cup of trembling, even the dregs of the cup of my fury, thou shalt no mor drink it again, but I will now put it into the hands of them that afflict thee, who have faid unto thy soul bow down that we may go over, and thou hast laid thy body as the ground and as the street to them that went over.  
The day is come which shall shakebag open all thy prison doors, for the first born of the Egyptians is near hand slain, & the great sea dividing; and upon the sea of glass mingled with fyr must thou yet stand, but all who witness true victory over all in their own particular shall stand thereon in pur Power life & Dominion, with the harps of God in their hands, singing the sweet, Melodios, glorios, triumphant & victorios song of Moses the servant of the Lord, & the song of the lamb; for the Lord now taketh pleasure in his Peepel, & will mor, & mor beautify the meek with his salvations, & his saints shall be joyful in glory, singing aloud upon their beds, having the hy Praises of God in their mouths, & a two edged sword in their hands, with which they (in mesur) already hav●, & daily mor & mor shall e●ecut vengeans upon the heathen, & Punishments upon the Peepel, binding Kings in chains & nobles in fetters of Iron, & execute upon them the judgements written, this honour have all the saints Prays, Prays, Prays ye the Lord God of life, lov, Pur Power, Dominion, and faithfulness, in throuh, and overall for ever mor. Amen.  
I am your Brother & companion in tribulation, and in the Kingdom, & Patiens of jesus. JOHN.
