A FEW LINES MORE For thee O ENGLAND And for thy Lofty ones in thee, And for all others of thine IN HABITANTS, when forth and sent abroad into the world, with two letters, for the comfort and consolation of the persecuted Church in God, and for the tribulated Flock in Christ, and mourners amongst them, wheresoever they be. 〈◊〉 the end the Children of Light, and all they that hunger and thirst, after righteousness, may be comforted, and refreshed (in God) in the midst and depth, of all their persecutions, tribulations, sufferings, and afflictions, that they may yet meet withal, from wicked, cruel and unreasonable men, who take delight to crucify the Lord of life, light, and Glory, a fresh, and put him to open shame in his people. Also a few lines for the wicked People, and powers of the World, with some wholesome Council and good advice, given unto me, from the Lord God Almighty, to give unto them, (especially unto the people, and powers of England, Ireland, Scotland, Holland and Germany, where the name of God hath been and is so emenently professed, and so great a reformation pretended) that so they may all hearken, unto hear, and obey, the voice of God; and so live in love and peace (out of persecution) and at last sit down in the Kingdom of glory, with Abraham, Isaac, and jacob.  
And therefore, and pray (that can) that ye enter not into temptations, for a work of wonders, is the Lord my God farther a doing in, and upon the Earth.  
And for all you Loftyons of the Earth that rebel against God, know that except you repent, you shall likewise perish, Luke 13. ver. 3. and 5.  And the Lord shall cut of all flattering lips (and) the tongue that speaketh proud things, Psalm. 12. ver. the 3. as he hath hither to done.  

An Epistle to the Reader.  
LEt this serve as a warning and as an invitation of love, for all people (great and small, high and lo, rich and poor, old and young, professors and profane, to turn you all (that are not yet turned) unto the living God, for it is brought forth (to public view) in its appointed season, and time, part whereof, is already fulfiled; and the remainder, is fullfilling apace, ye in our days, and age.  
Watch therefore and pray (that can) that you enter not into temptation, for the Lord God Almighty hath not forgotten to be gracious, nor hath his compassions at any time, failed any of the sons and daughters of men, that have turned unto him, and walked, and abode in his light, life and dostrine.  
And because some of you (in England) etc. have misspent your precious time, in making a mock of sin. And have made an ill use of your stewardships, in the ill management of your affairs, so mercifully, friendly, and favourably put into your hands, therefore, is this (most principally) directed unto you, to let you know, that God is angry with you, and that he will (ere long) be avenged on you, for you in England, hath the Lord God began withal first: And there will the Lord Jehovah make his name famous, and everlastingly Glorious; also God hath, and will work wonders there, as well as in other places, and none shall let, or say what dost thou.  
Friends, be not angry, nor partial, who ever you be, that hear or read this; And be not deceived, God is not mocked, Gal. 6. ver. 7. But in the light of the Lord Jesus Christ, see whither you have not almost sinned away your most precious time, and trifled away the days of your visitation, in all manner of excess: And for you that have not so spent your precious time, that God's spirit hath not done striving in you, or with you (and you are not become as Pharoahs'.) then turn you unto the light, within you, and obey the voice of God in you, for that is it, which will lead you into the living life, if you be found faithful to God for that light in you, whither you know, or believe in it, or no, is of God, & it is that in man, which showeth man, good and evil, and it will one day Judge you, and if you do but a little consider, it will now show you what you are.  
And what you have been, and then, if you, or any of you, that have been, and are, abominable sinners, shall in the true light and sense of your conditions, cleave unto God, and for sake your sins, and all your abominable do, then shall you soon know a curb to your lusts and wicked wills, and such of you, as shall thus truly turn unto God, and follow him, you shall quickly come to know, feel, and see, a bridle to your Tongues, and what it is to be made partakers of the glory of the Lord, in the Land of the living; for the living be they, that shall praise thee o God, when the dead (though alive) and them in the grave (though once never so mighty and great,) cannot, for the dead be they that shall hear the voice of the son of God, and they that hear, and obey God, shall live forever and ever, world without End, Amen.  
And now my Friends (every where) Arise from the dead; and come forth, and sing, all ye that dwell in the dust, for God is Just, and the Avenger he is, of the cause of the innocent, who hath often times sealed the deliverance of his people unto me; and I am sure that God is road forth Conquerring, and to Conquer, all the world over, and to make a short work in righteousness, upon the Earth; And God it is, in Men, Women, and Children, (every where) that calleth them to a turning unto himself, and to repentance from dead works, and to a seizing from sin, that so they may serve the living God in newness of life, and walking uprightly before God, in true holiness, peace and righteousness, all the days of their lives, which many have promised God so to do, in the days of their distresses, but some of them, have forgotten that, and so have sinned against light, as well now, as formerly, in running a whoring after their own inventions, lusts, and imaginations etc. And thus they have and do provoke the just and jealous God, of Heaven and Earth, to wrath against them, who is not slack in justice, and judgement.  
And therefore I plainly, tell you, who ever you are, that your going on in sin, have and will be your missery, & your not sea●sing from persecution, superstition, sin, & Idolitry is that which have provoked the just and jealous God, to wrath, judgement, and indignation against you, I say, God is now, as well as of old, jealous of his name in the children of Men, and his Glory. He will not give to graven immages, though many now adays so do, (mark that.) For such do daily persecute and afflicting the children of the most high God, (that God,) which heareth and answereth prayers, who hath heard and answered his people, and God the mighty jehovah, hath diverted, as well as revealed many of your secret and bloody intents, and so he will do again, and though you in England, and the potentates of the world, should yet make farther confedracies, and decrees against the People and children of God (until God's decree, be accomplished) which you will do, yet know that God will, in spite, of you, and all the powers, and Priests of the Earth: execute his judgements written, which are herein declared.  
And as for you the People and Powers in England etc. You have made strange idols, and acted contrary to your oaths, vows, promises, protestations, declarations. Letters, and proclamations, and thus have you hitherto daily provoked God, by your neglecting to hear his voice, and in contemning the word of God, which cometh out of the mouths of his sons and daughters.  
Now thus have many of you in England, already discovered yourselves in making Ship rack of faith, and of a good conscience, (which is a shame) for that will not in the least help to save you, in the day of God's vengeance, nor will your making havoc of the people, and flock of God, do you the least good in the world, as to your preservation, and deliverance, when God shall make inquisition for true, Royal, and innocent blood; Though many of you, may be yet suffered to go on, in your Road, plotting, and designing, and others of you persecuting, kill, and imlprisoning the children of light (a while longer) yet know, that God is, and will be just, who will call every one to an account for all his or their deeds done in the flesh, whither they be good or evil, and for you that oppress the seed of God in your own particulars also in others take heed of so doing, for in so doing, you have grieved persecuted, and smitten the just one, for which, God's controversy hath been, and still is with you (that so do) for such things have been, and are grievous in God's sight. And while you thus misuse yourselves, and abuse others, you yourselves defile the Temples of God, within you; for which the Lord God Almighty (if you so continue,) will you destroy, for it was written by the Prophets of old (as well as now.) Them will God destroy that defileth the Temples of God.  
Woe woe woe therefore will be unto such as so do, and now I am assured that Heaven and earth shall pass away, before one jot or tittle of God's word, thus revealed, and spoken in and to me shall fail, and as sure as the Lord liveth, there will that come upon many of you, in poor England &c. (of a sudden) that repent not, and turn not unto the living God, that will amaze you, and Astonish, and confound many elsewhere and do you all the world over, what you can, deliverance must, and shall come, unto the remnant of jacob; and this the Eternal God, hath sealed unto me, with much of the manner, way, and method Thereof.  
Therefore is this sent forth amongst you the sons and daughters of men, as another invitation, and warning, Believing, and knowing, that some thing else will (Ere long) follow, wherein the wickedness of the wicked in England. etc. will be further discovered, and laid open, with a farther demonstration of the mystery of things, and for what the judgements of God have been executed, and are executing upon the inhabitants of the whole Earth. And in the mean time, be still, all ye children of light, and mourners in Zion, for God seethe, & beholdeth your conditions, & will deliver you.  
And now rejoice in God all you (that can) and in the Lord Jehovah, make melody in your hearts, when you see this; I say again in the strength of the Lord God, rejoice, for the Lord Jehovah is nigh at hand, to judgement, and for it, he is worthy of all praise, glory, and honour, now hence forth and for evermore Amen; let our conditions be what they will, out of sin.  
Fear not therefore little flock: for it is our father's good will and pleasure to give unto us the Kingdom, that fadeth not away. That Kingdom, which cannot be removed, it's as mount Zion.  
And as for the mockers, scorners, scoffers, persecuters, plotters, blood suckers etc. a sad and lack day is come, and coming upon you, as well as a day of redemption and deliverance (in God, for God's poor despised and innocent people) the fight whereof from God, hath often times made me to rejoice, with joy unspeakable, and full of glory. And to water my pillow (many a time) with tears of joy, also the lamentation and mourning (from God) that I have been made to take up, for thee, and for thine inhabitants (O poor England &c.) have been more than I shall, at present particularly express, for some of your destructions, will be little inferior unto that off Sodom. Gomoroah, and Jerusalem.  
Friends, you in England (not long ago,) were a field of blood since that, your mercies have been great, ye as great, as ever any peoples, nations, Kings, or Kingdoms was, and you in England may be said to be a people and land, flowing with milk and honey; Though many of you, now there, have (viz) spent God's creatures, upon your lusts. etc.  
O how evilly, and unjustly have you requited the Lord God for all his mercies, to you wards, and how evilly have you (in England Ireland, and Scotland. (and else where) entreated Gods poor and innocent people, let the God of heaven and earth, and all sober people, (unto whom I do Appeal) be judge, yea and the witness of God in yourselves, and in the consciences of all men, yea in the wickedest, and vildest men that are, for that, (if not seared), will speak. And now take heed of lusting, revenge, lying, hardness of heart, and unbelief, for that will carry you, the children of men, into confusion etc. and make you that yield thereunto, to run, farther and farther, from the living God, into sin, until you are seared, and wholly given over unto destruction, (Mark that,)  
Again take heed all you professors, as well as profane, for there is ye a great fault amongst you all: your ye, is not ye, nor is your nay, nay, therefore is God angry with you, and displeased at your do; ye at the evil of your do, and practices.  
Friends, this is plain deal with the Children of men, and Counsel for a King, as well as for a Bagger, much of it, being from the Lord God, through a poor Earthen vessel, and one that is a servant of Jehovah, who is Redeemed from death, to life, by the power and Spirit of God, in the blood of Jesus: who subscribes himself,  
your Friend. Emmanuel Israelite. Which by Interpretation, is God with me, God with us, in whom there is no guile.   

1662. A letter of Comfort and consolation unto the whole flock of Christ, wheresoever they be.  
Dear beloved:  
A By de steadfast in mount Zion; for they that so do, shall never be removed, for the Church in God, is the ground and pillar of truth: from whence I am moved of the Lord God everlasting, to write a few lines unto you, And to the whole Israel of God, and though I have a long time forborn it, and have as it were struggled against it, yet my life and love is with you, and amongst you, all the world over, and in the Eternal light and love of God, do I dearly salute you all.  
Friends, your lives in God, are a joy, and refreshing unto me, even in the midst of all that unhuman, and unceasonable deal, that you do, And we may, yet farther meet with all, in this present evil earthly world, from cruel, marciles, and unreasonable men, who have no mercy.  
Therefore, O Lord God everlasting, keep us thy babes and lambs and preserve us pure, that so our offerings unto thee (may be as they are, when thou callest for them) a continual sweet savour, for in thy life do we live, and in it, is our unity.  
O Lord our all is offered up unto thee. Thou art our Saviour, Redeemer, and deliverer, we are thy people and heritage, plead thou therefore (O Lord,) thine own cause, which thou hast engaged us in; we must die. And because thou livest, do we therefore live with and in thee, and so shall we do, now and for ever and ever, world without end.  
And now while we are here, & do carry about in us, a body of clay, let us in the life, light, power, and strength of God, be ever doing our Father's will, and as much good on earth as we can; All flesh is as grass, and fadeth away, our strength is to sit still; God is with us, and in us, of a truth, and he will deliver us I am sure.  
Look not out therefore any of you, O my dear friends, brethren, and sisters: But sink down, sink down into the depth of the Lord God of life, and therein stand steadfast, and plead in and with him, for as God hath, so will he asuredly here and answer (his people) and deliver us, and confound our enemies, as he did of Old.  
For the Prayers, Sighs, Groans, Supplications, Cries, Tears, and oppressions of the poor, and innocent; have ofttengon up unto the Almighty, and they do daily reach to heaven, and God is come, and coming down to deliver us, his people, and to save us, in the midst of all our tribulations: God is risen to plead our cause. Be therefore valiant in the Lord, strong, and of a good couradge; so far ye well  
yours in truth: Emmanuel Israeliete.  
Friends and Brethren, this enclosed have lain (some part of it) as a thing lost, buried, & hid for some time (as you may see,) but it is now come to lightagaine; And is sent unto you.  
Therefore do with it, O Lord God of hosts, as seemeth good in thine own eyes, thy seerets (O Lord of Hosts,) & God of Life, are with them that fear thee, and thy wisdom is given unto thy chosen ones, to direct them; the Spirit of the Almighty is free in his people, that walk and abide in his light; to counsel, guide, lead, teach, and direct them, in all their ways and undertake for God, and as you find freedom in the Eternal Spirit; so let this be done with all; Either to embrace it; or not, Friends, I'am and shall be (in the Lord) a fellow feeler and sympathizer with you, in what so ever you do, and suffer, for the Lord; for in God alone, is our victory, over all; in which victory, let us stand, triumph and rejoice, and there in shall we trample on and tread under foot, our greatest Enemies, ye Satan, the Father of them all.  
And as it is written, so shall it be, the last enemy that shall be destroyed is death, and when our work is done, we must go from hence, and we shall be changed; (but not die) and that in a moment and twinkling of an Eye.  
And in the unchangeable God, dear beloved Brethren, do I dearly salute you, and remain, your friend and Brother, in the unity of the eternal Spirit, and life of God, where I shall for ever be and remain, your Friend, ye and a Friend to publicans, and sinners.  
postscript.  
Friends Golden snares and baits are laid, and laying for you to lift you up, out of the depth, Holiness, and wisdom, of the most high, even while the flesh and the lusts therein, do fortify, and fit itself, for your bodily destruction.  
Abide still therefore in the dominion of God, and he will not only give you to see, what is a doing on earth against you; but what he is also a doing in heaven, for your preservation and deliverance, which is, and must be in God, over all.  
That being unto God a daily delight, and a joy, for God in us, is and will be, (unto them that love us not) a burdensome stone that will fall upon our enemies, and break them in pieces, and grind them to powder, without our using of any Carnal weapons.  
O live therefore the life that's everlasting, and abide in it, for therein shall you Reign over all that is evil, for ever and ever.  
And now let none make us afraid, for when any do let in fear, that bringeth the righteous into snares.  
Be therefore terrified in nothing, for you are Gods, and God is yours, to his everlasting praise do I speak it, and rest.  
Your Friend, Emmanuel Israelite.   

A Letter for the persecuted Church in God, and for the tribulated flock of Christ where soever they be, and for the mourners amongst them.  
O Sons, and Daughters, of Zion, lift up your hearts, heads, and hands, unto the holy Lord, God, Almighty, and in his pure and everlasting life, light, power, and strength, cry aloud, day and night, unto the most high, for the holy, and righteous God, is Jealous of his name in you, and blessed are all they that are not offended in him, and are not at ease in Zion, while there are any mourners therein.  
And if it be so with any of you, as I know and believeit is, that many of you are already, entered into your rest, as God is entered into his rest, then shall your work, and Labour of love in the Lord not be in vain, but it will be taken notice of, and accepted of by the Lord, and then shall you be more, and oftener in the service of the living God, then ever, as I hope, and believe you will be, and you (that can), for get not the Angel Gabriel, whose work and service is not unknown; Oh watchmen, watchmans, what of the night, let's give our God, no rest, until he hath brought up all the mourners in Zion, unto a continual rejoicing, in the one eternal, and everlasting unity, where there is nothing but the unutterable joys of heaven, and that in the closest, hardest and most dificult service (for the living God) that is, Oh my Friends, the battle is ours all ready, only our Father is, will, and must be, supreme head and Governor.  
And therefore he will be sought unto (night and day) by the house of Israel, and by every individual member therein, watch therefore in God, and in him, let us always pray and ever more rejoice, and now take heed all ye my dear Friends, Brothers, and Sisters, of negligence, and of slothfulness, in business, and of drawing back from the service of the living God, into ways of sin and perdition, for if any so do, the Lords soul will have no pleasure in them; Therefore have a care my dear Friends and so run, that you may obtain, for there is a victory (but it is in God) in which victory; there is a conquest over sin, death, hell, and the grave, and a continual living in and an Abiding with God, as in the beginning, ye and in a more unutterable, and glorious state than Paradise, O my tongue cannot declare the glory, endlesness and unutterablenesse thereof. The whole is the glory of God; and that through mercy I have, and do enjoy a measure off, and had I the tongue of men, and Angels, I were not able to declare the whole; its endless, and Fathomless, yea its past finding out; But the babe of glory, (that's faithful) shall live in, and abide in it, here, and for ever, world without end.  
And in this life, is the glory, honour, and renown, that God will  his withal and in time, he will make all his as the Lily, which doth neither toil nor spin; but yet doth grow up and Prosper; Oh what shall I say, my tongue is not able to express the infinite glory that is in God for all them that love, and fear, his holy & glorious name, and now the burden that I have on me for the whole creations deliverance, is unknown for my bowels and all that is within me, do earn after, ye after all them that do hunger and thirst after the righteousness of the living God, that so they may all be brought into the knowledge, and enjoyment of the one only true way, and into that sheep fold (which is the light Christ) which leadeth into the life of God, that's Eternal immortal, and everlasting, for God is the way, the truth, and the life. also there is a care, in me that none be lost, and a sympathy and fellow feeling in me of some, that through negligence etc. are apt to draw back from the service of the living God, in the sense and feeling thereof, God hath inclined my heart, and moved me to write these Letters etc. and commanded me to send them forth amongst you, the sons and daughters of men, that so your rejoicing may be in the Lord, over all.  
Friends, these are days of trials, and of Winnowing, and sift, that so the Temples of God may be made clean, and may no more be defiled, nor any Money-changers suffered to dwell, or abide therein, for all that defileth the Temples of God, must be whipped, and scourged out, for, that will God destroy, yea all that letteth must be taken out of the way, also all that worketh, or maketh a lie, for greedy gain, and filthy lucre; That so God may be (as he is) all and in all, unto them that truly know, love, feel, and fear, his holy, blessed, and glorious name.  
Therefore my dear friends, Brethren, and Sisters, and all others that would be accounted Christians, learn to know, and do the will of God, which is Sanctification in the cross, unto all that is not of God.  
And now let all such as profess themselves to be wisdoms children, walk in the light, in all things, as he (to wit) Christ, is in the light, that so you may all justify wisdom, and thereby, manifest yourselves to be the children of the most high, in deed, and in truth, Christians indeed, like God, and Christ.  
Then shall the mouth of iniquity be stopped, & you shall see, feel, and know God, exalted, and exalting himself in you, over all that's humane, and setting himself in you, upon the top of all mountains; And then shall you know, feel, and see, God reigning, and ruling in, and over you, his temples (not made with hands) for ever and ever, also you shall then know him to lead, guide, govern, teach, and direct you, in every thing you do; distinct, from Satan, and then Satan's works will be known unto you, as they are unto God; a Loathing, and an Abomination.  
And though as yet, some of you have not known, witnessed, nor felt God, so to reign and rule etc. in and over you, yet God will, in patience posess your souls; Therefore in the light of God, (say I, again) wait and be still, that at all times you may know, and hear the voice of God in you, from Satan's; and feel the power of God in you, that resisteth evil, and the Appearances, and motiones, thereof, for that only, will make the evil one to fly; It's God Emmanuel, God with, and in us.  
Then shall you be kept alive in God, and in perfect peace whose minds are stayed on thee, O God of life light, strength, power, and glory, ye in that peace (and dominion over all deceit) that passeth all understanding, which will continually keep your hearts and minds alive, in the knowledge and love of God, Amen. so far ye well.  
This Letter was written the latter end of the Sixth month 1662. and sent from fare; with the rest of these things into England. From him that's yours, in him that's ever lasting, God blessed for ever and ever, world without end, Amen. Emmanuel Israelite, The name of the Lord (is now, as well as of old) a strong Tower, the Righteous fly into it, and are safe.   

A Few Lines more for thee O England, and for thy lofty ones in thee, and for all others, of thine inhabitants, also for the inhabitants of the whole Earth.  
Friends.  
THe Lord God Almighty, hath in these latter days, raised up Prophets as of Old, to tell you, and to foretell you, what have, and will befall you, as it hath befallen them, that went before you, yet many of you that are now alive, (and in power) will not hear, nor believe them, no more than they would, that went before you, nor will you obey the word of the living God, nor hearken too, nor hear his voice, as you ought to do, but you will harden your hearts, as they of Old did (in the wilderness,) when your Fathers tempted him.  
But because many of you now in England, and Elsewhere, will not believe the word of the Lord, out of the mouths; of his servants and Prophets; but are Curious and unbelieving, what the Prophets and servants of the Lord, have already said unto you, should come.  
Therefore hath the Lord God Almighty suffered signs, miracles, and wonders, upon the Earth, and in the Air, both lying ones, and true, and all this is to convince you, that are unbelievers, of the great Judgements of the Lord God, that are nigh at hand, come, and coming, amongst, and upon you the Inhabitants of the Earth.  
And as Nebuchadnezzer, Belshazzer, and Darius, Kings of Babylon did, even so have some great ones amongst you in England done (viz.) sent for Astrologers, Soothsayers, Socerers, and Magicians, Wisemen &c. to come unto you, commanding them, to tell you the meaning of those strange, and wonderful Appearances, and Apparitions that have been seen (by many), upon the Earth, and in the Air, in England, and Wiles, and Elsewhere; But when the Magicians, Soothsayers, Socerers, and Astrologers, Wisemen, (so called) could not tell these Kings the meaning of those wonderful things, that had then appeared, though they were sent for, on purpose to tell them, the meaning, and interpretation of their Visions and Dreams, also to read and interpret, the strange writing, that had appeared, and to tell them the meaning thereof; But when those Wisemen that the King sent for, could not Read the writing, nor tell King Nabuchadnezzar the interpretation of his Visions and Dreams.  
Then was the Prophet Daniel spoken of, after which, the King commanded the Captain to fetch Daniel unto him, and when Daniel came before the King Nabuchadnezzar, then said the King, thou art greatly beloved of God, tell me therefore, (if thou canst,) the meaning and interpretation of those Dreams and Visions of the night, which haveappeared unto me, also read the writing, and tell me the meaning thereof.  
Now (mark) Daniel was not hasty to answer the King in these things; nor was he, though a Prophet of God and filled with the Spirit of the holy God) swift in speaking unto this great King, nor did the Prophet, when he did speak, tell the King any thing, but the truth, and that which God gave him a perfect and clear sight of, and then, with holy booldness (in no small authority) did Daniel tell the King, the meaning and the interpretation of the whole matter.  
Farther Daniel spoke of great and wonderful things that God had then given him to behold and see; But neither the King, councillors, priests, not subjects understood him, nor do very many unto this day;  
This Prophet of God, was then had in great Esteem by the King, for that of God which was manifested, by him, in so much that Darius highly promoted, and greatly Esteemed him; & so did all save the evell and wicked Priests, Counsellors, and People, such wicked ones, as had before instigated King Nebuchadnezzer, to throw Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, into the fiery furnace, only for their speaking the truth unto all, (to wit) to the People, Priests, Counsellors, and Kings;  
Now take notice and see; where any, of those sad things had ever come upon those great Kings of Babylon; had they not suffered the Children of the most high God, to have been so wickedly abused, as they were;  
But God is just, and a recompeneer of every one according to his, or their deeds done in the flesh; whither they be good or evil, for Kings or Emperors must, not think to escape the just hand of God, though they may be above law, and out of the reach of man.  
And a just recompense of reward; ye an exemplary one, doth God usually render unto every man that turneth not to him (in time) & such was Belshazzars reward, for while he was Drinking wine in Booles, to the confusion of the God of the children of light, his Kingdom was taken from him, (mark that) And after him, succeeded King Darius, who had Daniel the Prophet in very great Esteem, yet how wickedly did, Darius and his evil counsellors Act, in making a Law, that none should (for forty days pray, for any thing) save unto the King, and unto this decree, did Darius unwisely sign, and when he had so inconsidratly signed, that Law, and decree, (Mark and see) what followed, They threw Daniel the Prophet into the Lion's Den, only for praying unto the God of light.  
And hath not this been the wicked practices of the Kings, Counsels, priests, and powers of the Earth, unto this day; Yes, yes. it hath.  
And no sooner at any time, when light hath sprung up, and broke forth, and God raised up Prophets and People unto himself, than the powers of the Earth, both King's Priests and Rulors, ye and soldiers too; have combined together, and taken counsel, of the evil one, and one of another, and thereupon they have made decrees and laws, to throw in to holes, and dens, and to stone, kill, burne, hang, fry, broile, banish, and to destroy the Prophets, ye the true Prophets, children of light, who have not provesied, lies in the Name of jesus (but truth,) nor have they divined for money, nor preached for hire, nor for filthy Luker and gain, as persecutors, and bloodsuckers, belly-gods, and blind guides, do use to do. Who do greedily seek at this very day and time, to devour the flock of Christ; ye the true and lively flock and followers of God and Christ.  
Now is there not very great need, and necessity, that you the people, and powers of the Earth, should be put in mind of these things;  
Lest you should post altogether into blood, misery, and confusion, and many of you go headlong to Hell; for such Priest, such a— and People.  
Be therefore warned & entreated once more, you that Rule over men, to be just, loving, tender, kind, & merciful; for the merciful, shall find mercy, and they that rule over men, should, and aught to be just, and for the praise of them that do well, and for the punishment of evil doers; lest God smite you with his severe rod, and judgements, before you are willing, or are prepared for it.  
And now you that rule for God, labour to feel the blessing, in well doing; and to see how many have suffered before your faces, for evil doing, and you that are in adversity, as well as they that are in prosperity, Consider. I beseech you, what God requireth at your hands; also what he is now doing upon the Earth.  
O that it might not be laid any more to your charge (you mighty and powerful men) the neglecting of your duties, when you have had power enough in your hands to do good, that then you have not done it. (But evil,) and thus evilly have yourequited God for all his kindness, love & mercies, goodness, and good will, towards you.  
Friends, have not some in these days been beaten with many stripes, and how can you yourselves think to escape the hand, and just Judgements of the Lord God; sure you cannot Escape them. for God's hand is stretching out against you  
Therefore all ye children of men, learn to know that God is good to Israel, and unto them that are of a pure and upright heart, for a witness, ye a swift witness he is, and will be, against the evil ones Especially against the lofty ones of the Earth, that work iniquity.  
And now unto you, O People, Priests, Kings, and Rulers, that have been in England within this 20 years' last passed, & are now there.  
Query, Wither you have not found that to be true, which the Prophets have spoken off, and foretold you, what would come.  
And as sure as that is come, which is already past, so sure will the remainder of this Prophecy, be fulfiled, and Heaven and Earth shall pass away before one Jot or tittle of these things shall fail; for such hath the Lord God Almighty raised upin the midst of you, in these latter days, that have told you, & fore told you (from God) what would come, and what is coming amongst you, and upon you, and out of the mouths of babes and sucklings, will God perfect his preys, for through such, hath the Lord God Almighty often spoken, to the former Powers, Priests, and People, of England, etc. As well as unto you; And unto you the Powers, Priests, & People, of Eng. (that now are) hath God spoken these things, that are come, and coming, upon you, and vvhilst God's judgements are upon the earth, the inhabitants thereof, should, and aught, to learn righteousness; for the Lord God hath sent you in this ages, as well as them in other ages, many warnings by his servants the Prophets, though you the Priests, Powers, and People of the Earth, have not heeded them as you ought to do (mark that) as well as what followeth.  
For now the Father of faithfulness, (God) hath made, and is making good his word spoken by his Prophets of Old, (to wit) that old Men should dream dreams, also that young men should see visions, and that God would in the latter days, power forth his Spirit abundantly upon his Sons and Daughters, and enable, both Sons and handmaids, to Prophesic, speak, and write, also that some in seeing, should not see, and in hearing, they should not understand, & as God the Father of faithfulness, hath spoken, so hath he made good his word spoken in all ages, and as God did of old speak in & unto his servants the Prophets, even so hath, & did he speak, in & tome, (at sundry places,) and at several times in this latter age (in these particulars) to wit, in speaking to, & in foreshowing me, the downfall of the old King of England, Charles the First, and many great ones more, the Rice and Fall of the Cromwel's, the ruin of the Parliament and Army telling them how often God would have gathered them to himself; even as a Henn gathereth her chickings, but they would not.  
Now mark and see what followed thereupon, nothing say I, but destruction.  
And as the High-Priests, Seribes and Pharises did, even so have some lately done in England, I say they have given up the innocent People of God, into the hands of Rulers, and rude People, to be hardly dealt with all.  
Such were they that Crucified and killed Christ, as had joined themselves unto idols, and were wedded there unto, and resolved they were, to go on in there idolletry and will worship, until God came down with his severe judgements upon them.  
And though the wicked may do wickedly for a while, in labouring to keep the ignorant, and simple People in sin, superstition and idolletry, ye and in blindness and darkness, etc. Yet know that God will not always be so mocked.  
Therefore friends take heed all you that drive on so jehu-like, in persecuting the People and Children of God: for it was once written from the Spirit of the holy God, that the Rod of the wicked should not all ways rest upon the back of the righteous, (mark that.)  
For whosoever they be that have yet (in this latter age) gone about to Lord it over God's heritage, and thereupon, have persecuted and smitten the Babes, Lambs, and little ones, Children of Light, and they that have thereby had thoughts to weary out the Saints and children of the most High God, they have hither to been broken, and have broken one another to pieces, and many of them that so did, are already ground to powder.  
O wicked Generation of vipers, that have in all ages thus risen up against God, and his power, life, light, and truth, made manifest in God's people, have you not been often warned to fly from the wrath to come, (by the Prophets,) and have you not been desired to decist from your bloody and cruel, intentions, and from the evil of your ways, in killing and Crucifiing the Lord of life, light, and glory, a fresh, and of putting him to open shame, again, and again in his People, and have you not been warned to fly from such abominations as these; and to seek reconciliation with God, and Man, ye with God and good men, while you have a day and time, and not to destroy such as fear the Lord; but it seems you will not stay your hearts in God, nor restrain your hands from blood; cruelty, perfecution and so forth: But you will fight against the witness of God, in yourselves, and others, and so forget the sure mercies of David; until the judgements of the Lord God almighty overtake you, again.  
Friends, have not you the Backsliders in heart, every where, been the greatest persecutors, you that of old promised better things than these, and have not you the Backsliders in heart been filled with your own ways; and have you not often times been confused & (as it were) confounded, with the wicked devices of your own hearts, in almost every thing, and have you in these last 20 years' Revolutions learned no more, no better things than these, have your persecutions and sufferings taught yonv no more good yet, what think you, will become of you, while you are thus found fighters against God; and the mercies that you have had; what will become of you that think to eat up God's children like Bread, and to scatter, & drive, his flock upon the Mountains by your wolfuish actions towards them, as if they were not creatures of Gods own making, or your fellow creatures.  
Give over your persecution in time I pray you, lest (at last) you dig a pit, and be buried therein yourselves; And now O Lord pass by the innocent blood that hath been already spilt in poor Ireland, England, and Scotland, O how did the bloody Papists at the first Rip up the poor Protestant Women great with child, in many places in poor Ireland, and all from the instigation of sathan and the Bloodsucking Priests; who pretended for a moderate Episcopal Clergy there, such were they that had a hand in that Bloody Massacre, at the beginning of the late War in that place, and in England's former, and latter Martyrdoms.  
Be now therefore convinced of your sins in time, and learn to know that God 〈◊〉 have the hearts of Kings as well as Rulers and People, in his own hands. Therefore O Lord of Hosts turn the hearts of Kings as well Rulers and People if it be thy will, that so they may in time, come and stoop unto they Sceptre, for all the powers on Earth must come and bring their glory and honour unto God, or else they will Perish. For ever and ever.  
For now the hand of the Lord God Almighty is stretched forth over all, and none can hinder God, from making good his own decree, revealed & sealed unto me, (which in the General is) that he will break all the Kingdoms, and People of the Earth in pieces, that will not have Christ to Rule in and over them; the mouth of the Lord off Hosts hath spoken it unto me.  
O Remember, remember, therefore all ye Sons and Daughters of men, ye that drink Wine in Bowls; and go on in your forgetfulness of God and his mercies, you that sport yourselves in your own lusts, ye in the lust of your minds, the lust of the Eye, and the pride of life, which is the flesh, the World and the devil, I say remember that Tophat was prepared of old for such, ye for the Rebellious and disobedient, though they were never so mighty and great; and now learn to know that God the Lord of Hosts, is no respector of Persons, and for Bishops, that are not as the Bishops, spoken off in the Scriptures of truth (were) They are a loathing and an abomination unto God, for such God hath already spewed out of his mouth, and so will he do again.  
And for all you that are now in prosperity, take heed, lest that glory you now have, be stained again, by your slaying more of God's poor Babes, and Lambs, and Sheep, of our Father's pasture.  
O that ever fullness of bread, and plenty, should cause great men so to forget God; and that ever God's goodness and mercy, should so puff up men; as it hath now in this generation done, many who not long ago, had scarce Bread to eat, or Garments to put on.  
Verily friends, whosoever you be, that will not turn to the light, and living God, but will go on in your fins, ' & abide in your filthiness, both of Flesh and Spirit, God will judge you, and at last destroy you.  
Youridols, Temples, cannot, nor shall 〈◊〉 you: the decree of God is gone forth and sealed against such as worship idols, and will not turn unto him.  
And for you that will, and do but truly turn from the evil of your ways, and come unto God, God will love and embrace you, in his everlasting arms of kindness, and cover you as with a garment, and then you shall by little and little, see the glory of God in the Land of the living, and perhaps you shall, as others have done before you, see God's wonders in the deep, for so did King David, who after his great abominations, and turning unto God again, and so have some others done after there return unto God their maker, insomuch that their whole lives have been lives of hearty sorrow, and of everlasting praises. And such can never sufficiently nor enough admire God; and as David saith in the 107. Psalm. so say I  
O That the Children of men would but admire God for his wonderful works, done unto (and amongst) the Children of men. And in the conclusion of that Psalm, the writer thereof saith. Who so is wise, let them observe these things, and they shall see the loving kindness of the Lord, And so say I; though they be Kings. And when God shall raise up such a King to bear rule amongst any people; let it be where it will, the Lord God of heaven and earth will bless and prosper such a one, while he shall faithfully continue and abide in God, and then all his works and undertake (for God on Earth) shall prosper, and such a King shall be blessed for ever and ever.  
And then none can nor shall make such a one afraid, for if he doth well, who then shall harm him, but if he doth evil, (while he so doth) sin will continue, and lie at his door; ye at King's doors, as well as at others.  
For such as we sow, such usually do we reap, ye some times double and what measure men meet, it is usualy measured unto them again.  
Therefore, leave off all your Idoll-Gods for shame, all ye Kings and pretended Christians, leave of say I, all you High priests your superstitions, Ceremonies, Surplisces, Pipes, singing-boyes, and sursingles, for they are all a loathing, and an abomination unto God, plain down right Popery against which the witness of God is gone forth.  
And now take heed, I pray and beseech all you Kings, Priests and People of the Earth (for the Lord sake,) of praying, or fing out of the Spirit of God; for that is but a deceiving of yourselves, and others; that is a mocking of God, and whither you see it, or believe it, or no, it is so, and where you will hear or forbear, it is all a case; for God's word and witness is, true and it will (in his own time) prove so; and you the powers of the Forth shall assuredly know, and feel it, so to be.  
And for you that scoff at the light, you Ignorantly, or knowingly, scoff at that which; you live & move by, for by the light all men have their moving living and being, even while they devil in darkness, and in the shadow of death, & do do the deceivers work, upon the Earth, for light hath shined in darkness but the darkness comprehendeth it not.  
Take heed therefore and beware of God's heavy judgements, all you that laugh and scoff, at God's people (that walk in God, & are turned to the light,) and at their praying in the Spirit, or by the spirit, for such their have been, and now are, that have been, and are, whole days in the Spirit, ye and nights too, whom the Lord God of Heaven and Earth, hath heard and answered. And though you the powers of the Earth, should combine altogether, and make never so many decrees against such a praying People as Daniel the Prophet. etc. was, yet they will (while they have life) pray; as Daniel did, and some such, do certainly know, that God will at last break all your cords in sunder, and in the mean time preserve them.  
And now while you the powers of the Earth do make such laws and decrees against Gods, praying Spirit, in man: the mouth of the Lord of Hosts will be against you, I say in God, that God hath determined that his People must, and shall pray unto him in the Spirit, ye and worship him in the Spirit, and honour him, and all men in the Spirit; for God himself is head over all, ye over all principalities, and powers, and Spiritual wickedness in high places, and thus God hath, and will rebuke Kings for his own and People's sake: the mouth of the Lord of Hosts, hath spoken it.  
And now the God and Father of our Lord jesus Christ, and in him our Father, hath required commanded, and in abled us, 〈…〉 to pray against Spiritual wickedness in high places, and for all them that are in Authority over us, that so (under them) we may live a godly and peaceable life, which we the People of God do, and shall do.  
Farther, I am sure that God hath now made some of his People watchmen in Israel, whom he hath commanded, and required to give him no rest, until he hath made jerusalem the praise of the whole Earth: And this the Lord our righteousness, who is life, light, power, and glory: hath raised up Prophets, and children, unto himself to pray unto him in the spirit, more or less day & night, for the accomplishment of these things, and for the fullfilling of his word, and decrecrevealed, spoken and promised unto us, that so Kings might become Nurssing Fathers, and Queens Nurssing Mothers, unto the Saints and People of God, for sure I am, that such Kings and Rulers (while on Earth) would be for the praise of them that do well, and for the punishment, of such as do evil, I say, such as do inqivity, and spend Gods good creatures in drunkeness, and in all manner of excess of riot, God will punish, though they be never so great, for usualy such do study on their Beds of down, & in other places, how they may feed the delight of their eyes the lust of their minds & pride of there lifts, even to the maintaining of the pride of life, in all manner of whordoms, both Spiritual, and carnal: the which (I am sure,) God is highly displeased at, and greatly against, and for such do together, with the blood of the Saints.  
〈◊〉 our God hath yet a greater controversy with the sons, and daughters of men, than ever, the dreadfulness and terribleness thereof, when (in God) I have beheld it, hath often times made me to tremble, ye and to fall down before his holy presence, and to worship his holy name, and to implore, and humbly to beg and beseech him, that he would pass such great iniquities by, if it were his will. But I find no answer as yet from God, that he will so do, but I see the hand and judgements of the great God, still stretched out, and hasting over all the Inhabitants of the Earth.  
And as for thee, O England, with thy great Cities and Towns likened have they been unto me, to great and little Babylon.  
I say unto you that have slain, misused, and often abused, and evilly 〈…〉 many of God's dear People, his servants, and Prophets, yea his true Prophets, and children of the light, I say unto you, you have often times thrown many of them into Prisons, Holes, and Dungeons where wicked persons have been, who have misused the innocent, even unto Death, and many have been killed by reason of such ill usage.  
And have not you, or some of you the High-Priests, Kings, and Rulers of the Earth, been the cause of all your own, & the people miseries in the shedding of innocent blood, I do not mean that which you have sheed in the way you call justice, and though you have already destroyed many in that way, and thereby you have thought to have wearied out the Saints of the most high, the which you can never do, for God my God, hath other ways decreed, and determined it.  
And though you in England in your great Cities, (to wit) in London, Exetor, Sarum Allies Salisbury, Bristol, Worcester, Norwich, Rochester, Canterbury, Linckolne, York, etc. And you in the rest of your great and little Towns, I say, though you and the greatest part of your inhabitants, daily do despite unto the Spirit of God in man, and thus grieve the Holy one of Israel, and thereby plainly manifest whose servants you are, for whose servants you are, him do you obey, and so you forget, that the wages of sin is Death; I say though you forget God, yet God will not forget you, for he will reward every man according to his works.  
O what then can you that are found in so great iniquity Expect (in this the day of God's visitation) I say what can you think of: or expect for a requital other than the heavy & dreadful judgements of God, upon you verily I know not.  
And as for you in England with the greatest part of your Inhabitants: you are poor and miserable, yea and great finners against light, for which the Lord jehovah, hath yet a greater controversy with you, than ever.  
Therefore consider and take this good counsel which follows, without goiing unto, your Astrologers, Soothsayers, Socerers, or Magitions (Wisemen so accounted.) I say in stead of going unto them, go unto God, who is light, which maketh all things, manifest, and then if you do but stand still a while in God's light; you shall see light, also you shall know, see and feel, that this good counsel cometh from jehovah, through a poor servant of Gods, for all your good, if evil be not all together predominate in you, and deceit wholly become yonur Lord and Master, then that will make you run farther and farther from God, until you perish (mark that) as well as what followeth.  
There will that come upon you in England of a sudden, you that cease not speedily from sin; and turn not unto the living God; I say there will that come amongst, and upon you (of a sudden) that will amaze terrify and confound many of the great and mighty together with many others of the Inhabitants, a little time more (in comparison) will manifest it.  
Murmur not therefore ye sons and daughters of men, but comfort ye one another in the Lord that can: for you in England, know not as yet how to avoid your falling into great coufusion, persecution, Blood, and missery; O England thou with thine Inhabitants, wilt fall together by the ears, and then ye will rend, tear, and devour one another, like so many beasts of prey: ye, like so many wild Boars of the Forest, will you strick at one another.  
And the harmless and innocent ones amongst you, you will cut from off the Earth, if the Lord permit, at least as many of them as you judge, or think do stand in your way, such will you banish, hale to prison or otherwise persecute, you thinking thereby, to weary them out that God hath already raised up to be Saints of the most high, who do now witness against such abominations as cometh from him that delighteth to make desolate the People of God.  
And as for thee, O King of England thou wilt be hardly put to it, to escape, for in the light of the Lord, I have seen them nigh thee several times, that will be the cause of thy ruin, if not thy utter destruction, and the time will come, that thou wilt not know what to do, nor whither to go, also thou shalt in words repent, and say that it had been better for thee that thou hadst never been born, (thy miseries will be such) then for thee to have done, and suffered that to be done, which is already past.  
And that which thou wilt yet farther suffer, and mayest be accessary to the doing off, will help forward thy missery and Calamnity, for many there are, that will be by thy consent and permission, taken away from the evil to come, by untimely Death, and all this will be for the fullfilling of God's decree, revealed, and made manifest, unto me,  
But thy end in it O Man, is not good, the which is well known to the Almighty, and unto some of his beloved ones, who have been commanded, and required from God, to signify the substance of these things unto thee, and unto the inhabitants of the whole Earth,  
Friends, these things, have been wonderfully revealed and made manifest unto me; from the Lord God Almighty, in so much, that I have (often times) been made to tremble before the living God, in the seeing and beholding thereof.  
And Verily true it is, the Lord God Almighty is just in bringing thee, O King of England, with others in, over your enemies; it being according to his revealed word in and unto me; long before it came to pass.  
And as true it is, that God the Lord of Hosts, is a rewarder of every man according to his, or there works and deeds, done in the flesh, whither they be good or evell.  
And whither canst thou O Man, O King, fly from the presence of the Lord God Almighty, Lord of Lords, and King of Kings;  
Verily I know not whither thou canst fly from the presence of the great God, for fly whethersoever thou wilt; God will follow thee with his judgements, until the measure of thine iniquities are full; This have I seen, and the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it unto me.  
Further I have (in the light of God,) seen terrible and dreadful things that shall come upon the Earth, some of which are not as yet lawful for me to utter, but what is lawful and laid upon me to signify unto thee and unto the children of men, I have and shall freely do it (mark therefore what followeth.) I have often times seen ascertain number of men, nigh thee, O King of England, I say, I have certainly seen a number of men (nigh thee O King) several times in consultation, counselling thee, to do, the things that are not good; neither in the sight of God, or man (viz) consulting together, how they, (with thee) might rid thy Territories and Dominions (so called,) of an innocent harmless quiet peaceable people, that hurt you not, nor will they harm any body; Though the bloody minded of all sorrs, do go about to make thee (O King) and others, believe, other ways of us.  
But my God, will E'er long, reward all such, with the evell of there own do;  
For there will yet be greater tribulations upon the Earth, than ever.  
Also I have (in the light of the Lord) seen great Lightnings and Thunders that shall be; the tirribleness thereof, shall make both men and beasts afraid, insomuch that they shall not know what to do, nor whither to go to hid themselves from the presence of the Almighty.  
I have also seen other dreadful and tirrible sights, which shall be seen upon the Earth; such things when they come, as will amaze terrify and confound many of them that believe not in the living God.  
For Signs and Wonders there must be (for a while) that so the unbelievers may believe, and know, that God's Word is true, which he hath spoken in these last days, by his Servants and Prophets;  
Now in this Book is part of England's doom, (to come) Demonstrated.  
Therefore do I once more according to the Requirings of God made manifest, in and unto me; beseech you the Powers and People of that place, not to harden your hearts any longer; lest more of you become as Pharoahs'.  
And do not you blind guides of the Earth, Hirelings of any sort, go about any longer, to make your Masters and People believe that there are no true Prophets now upon the Earth, for in your willfullness, darkness blindness and ignorance of God, and of his mysteries, (Christ being unto you a mystery) I say in your ignorance and blind Zeal, you have hitherto gone about, to make both the Powers and People of the Earth, believe a lie, and you have insenced both the People & Powers of the Earth, against the Children of Light, Servants and Prophets of God, whom God hath, raised up; to bear testamony unto his name and truth, as it was in the beginning, and it would have been better for you, if you had not so doné, sure I am if the Testamony of Jesus, be the spirit of Prophecy, as I both know & believe it is: Then God hath many true Prophets now upon the Earth, who have and do in God's Name, Authority Power and Strength, Prophecy; yea, and they have foretold you, the People, Priests, and Powers of England etc. what would come upon you, part whereof is already come to pass, and the remainder is coming, and such dare not Preach Lies in the Name of God and Christ, as the false Christians, blind Guides, and Hirelings of the Earth do, who Preach for Hire, and Divine for Money, and so Ride both Powers, and People, even to Death.  
And now, had not the Lord God Almighty, given such his servants 〈…〉 of things to come, they durst not have so spoken, and written, as they have: Now would the former King, Pours, Priests, and People of England, but have believed, that which was said unto them from God, by his servants, who were Enabled both to speak and write unto them: sure there had been no more Innocent blood spilt, after the first War in England was ended, but they would not believe, nor take council of God, by his Children, but in stead thereof, they (to wit) the greatest and wisest of them, would do as many Great Mighty, Wise, and Noble, now do, laugh, jere, & scoff at them, which God had enabled, & commanded to speak to them, who (from God) did positively foretell them, of their ruin & destruction, as they do of yours now, if you repent not, and turn not unto God.  
For there will yet be greater trouble upon the Earth then ever was.  
Also there will be Earthquakes in some places of the World, that will swallow up many, if not whole Countries. Farther there will be a Nation born in a day.  
These things hath the Almighty God given me, a perfect and clear fight off, as if they were already past: with many more, which as yet I have no Authority nor command from on High, to publish, but this my God and Father, hath already assured me, that whatsoever (of it) shall make for his Glory, and for his People's good, he will (in his own time) give me power, and strength, to declare it, and for that which doth particularly concern some men, I shall in God's time, faithfully signify it unto them.  
Now blessed are the Merciful, for they shall find Mercy, in the day (which is nigh at hand) when God will pour forth the Vials of his wrath, judgement, and Indignation, upon the disobedient, for God's determination, is so to do, also God is staining the Glory of all flesh, that so none may glory any more in the flesh, but in the Lord aloan, who is Head over all.  
Now judgement is not only begun at the House of Gond, but it is gone and going forth against Satan, and his Instruments, every where, and all such as are found in Rebellion, and Disobedience against God, shall have no true comfort, rebellion against God, being as the sin of witchcraft, say for all such as shall be found in this iniquity of rebellion against God, and in truth and peacebreaking, and in bloodguiltiness, persecution, sin superstition & Idolitry, shall have but little quiet, for God hath determined wonderful things to be.  
And these things herein (called England's doom) hath been from God often times signified unto me, to be that, which will surely come upon England's Inhabitants, so sure will they come, as that which is already past: for none shall hinder, the decree of God.  
Now when the Lord God Almighty first began to open these things unto me, great were his mercies, and infinite was his loving kindness in and unto me, insomuch that if I had the tongue of men and Angels, I were not able to express and declare it, I being but as a child, and one as with a stamering tongue, hath in the strength of my God 〈◊〉 made manifest what God hath (at present) required at my hands, this being written from the requirings of God, the latter end of the year, 1661. I say, this called England's doom, was then written, but the other things were written at other times.  
Now the mighty wonderful and powerful appearances of the Lord God of Wisdom, were such in and unto me, for days and nights that had not God in his mercy and goodness towards me, borne up my Spirits, I had then laid down the body, for when God thus opened & revealed these things in and unto me, and gave me thus to behold & see his great and Glorious presence, I then had a clear sight of all these things herein mentioned, and then, even then, I beheld and see dreadful and terrible things that the wicked of the Earth, should in a little time more be found doing of, against the Godly, further the Bloodsheding, misery, Calamity and confusion, that in the light of God I then see coming, not only, in & upon poor England, but else where; would make the stoutest Kings, Princes, Priests and People, of the Earth, there hearts to tremble and quake, to behold and see it, as I have done; And this sound of the Spirit of God, have often passed through me. O what would I do to save this people.  
So that through mercy I can truly say, & testify to the whole world, that God is good to Israel, & unto them that obey him & are of a pure and upright heart, also that this Gods wonderful deal with me, is not for naught, for in the midst and depth of all our tribulations, sufferings, and aflictions, that we the People of God, and sheep of our Father's pasture, may yet meet with all, I say from God, that in the height of all our enemy's fury towards us, God the Lord of Host, will deliver us his poor innocent, and oppressed ones that abide and trust in him, these things hath my God opened and perfectly shown unto me, again and again, yea, and sealed them unto, and in me, to the end, that I should publish them, unto the sons and daughters of men, that so all the People of God, on earth, may be comforted, ye and be made to abide steadfast and unmoveable, always abounding in the work, and service of God in the midst of our greatest sufferings.  
And now while the wicked do walk on every side, and the vildest of men are exalted, let us the People of God, be ever more found doing our Father's will one Earth, as it is in Heaven, and as much good to our enemies, as we can, for in our so doing, our God and Father will be well pleased with us, and he will delight himself in us, to the perfecting of his praise for us and by us.  
And for all you Kings, Princes, Rulers, Priests, People, and Powers of the Earth & of the Earthly mind, Flatter not yourselves any longer, and suffer not yourselves to be deceived and flattered withal, & fauned upon, by your high Priest & blind guides, for such do but sew pillows of down under you, which will deceive both you and them at last, I say deceive not yourselves, nor them that you have power & authority over. But turn you unto the light of God, while you have a day and time, and cease from sin, you little and lofty ones of the Earth, and do good, and be ye all found in Moderation, and in the works of holiness righteousness peace and truth, for the Lords sake, other ways it will go very hard with you all, I do assure you.  
And now whosoever you be, that shall be found in the path of righteousness peace and truth, and in well doing, also in moderation, it may then be truly hoped, that such people do know that the Lord God Almighty is nigh at hand to judgement for sin.  
And for all you Kings, Rulers and people, that shallbe found in the exercise of the things that are good, you shall have true comfort, therein, and the trial of your faith and patience in your so doing, will be of much more comfort unto you, than all your Earthly crowns, yea then all your gold & honour that perisheth, now that true honour which cometh from above is first pure & then peaceable, it is also gentle and easy to be entreated, it is also full of love, & good works, and what not, that is of good and of honest report, and sure I am, that all they that live in this moderation, be they Kings, or others, they must needs know good from evil, and avoid the one, and love the other; And now friends did you but know who it was that came from Bozero with his Garments rolled in blood; sure you would tremble, for he it is that is come, and coming to judge the Earth: yea to judge both the quick and dead; or did you but consider, as well as know, that some men for shedding of innocent blood, have already paid dear; you would then seance from blood, and never do iniquity more.  
Now do you not know that blood is a crying sin, and that the cry thereof, hath often reached unto Heaven; And how God remembreth it, and that he will be avenged thereof.  
Have you forgotten that God judgeth amongst the Gods, and do you not know, for what God hath cast down some, and raised up others, and how he giveth the Kingdoms of men unto whomsoever he pleaseth: and that he is no respector of persons; and will you yet go on in your sins; sure you that Rule over men, aught to be kind, loving, merciful, and just; I say unto you, whosoever you be, that thus hunger and thirst after innocent blood, God will give you blood to drink again, & at last bring you into confusion, woe, missery, torment, and trouble: for there is innocency in many, who thirst not after blood, and wrath in the Lamb of God (that taketh away the sins of the world) on their behalf; and God, my God, will in a little time more manifest it, and make it appear unto all theworld.  
And then you that have seen this Testimony, will say, that this was a plain and faithful warning, as well as a loving invitation, foresight and 〈◊〉 for the healing of the Nations, and People of the Earth, especially them of England.  
And now I tell you in England etc. make what confedracies you will with in yourselves, & with Death, and Hell, that tends to blood, the Lord God (omnipotent, God over all) will reveal, and discover it & God in his own time, will blast you, & it, that shall be found therein Also make what conjunctions & confedracies you will, within yourselves, and with other Nations (who are infatuated, as well as you, it shall all be for the fullfilling, and accomplishing of these things herein spoken off, and treated on.  
Friends now learn to know that God is he, which maketh all things manifest.  
Therefore wait patiently (in God) all ye children of light, and be still, and think not much any of you, at your sufferings, for God beholdeth it, and taketh care of all you that trust in him, For through sufferings must redemption come.  
Also know if any shall say, he or they hath a Revelation or Prophecy, and cometh in the name of the Lord, and speaketh falsely, the Lord God will reward such, with the evil of their own do, therefore let no man destroy such; also if any man shall draw back, from the service, of the living God; my soul saith God (through me) shall have no pleasure in such, let no man therefore now neglect to do the service, and requirings, of God.  
Friends, I say again, wait patiently (in God) and see what a few years more will bring forth, and be not impatient, but watch, and pray, (that can) and as it is said before, so do.  
And now take no care when you, or any of you, shall be had before Kings, and Princes, for his name sake, or before other Rulers, for the Lord careth for you; and remember, that it be the patiented, and the meek, that do, and shall iuherit the Kingdom, that cannot be removed, in which Kingdom is the Crownimmortall, which fadeth not away, its God's Kingdom.  
And for thou O King of England let this following Counsel be acceptable unto thee (amongst the rest) Break thou of thy sins by Righteousness, and thine Iniquities, by showing mercy unto the poor, if it may be a lengthening of thy tranquillity.  
But if thou shalt yet go on in the fullfilling of thy lust and in suffering the truly Innocent peaceable people of God, to be worrowed, bruised, abused, and beaten, a while Longer, as they have been.  
As heavey a hand from the Lord God Allmighty will fall upon thee and them that cause such Greivious and abominable things to be done, (as hither to hath been done and Inflicted upon God's poor babes Lambs, and little on's) As ever fell upon King Nabuchadnezzar: Belshazzer or Darious: For Great Babelon, is still in Remembrance before the Great God of heaven and Earth, whose reward is nigh, for all There Creveltyes done unto the saints and people of God.  
The End.
