Commissioning it to go forth Begin at London and go throw all his dominions Fear all that read it and you that hear it I say fear and Tremble for they are the words of the Lord Almighty and his also is this sent-out fire So soon as the words were spoken Begin at London go thorow all his dominions the fire immediately removed from between the Kings feet to a distance some three yards from him and there stood but still kept in a right line before him there and then that fire suddenly became dilated and forthwith was big as the Sun in appearance when so dilated it had then ashes all under it which ashes were of the thickness of a pocket-Bible fire ashes and Bible are made up of the word and power of God who so contems his word his fire makes ashes of them contemn God and the King and you perish together Certainly on purpose is it thus shewed me with ashes under it that I may let you all see and know its readiness to Execute Gods Command first upon you of London Begin at London then his three Kingdoms and Christian world Men and Brethren either suffer your Corruptions and Rebellions of all sorts of which you are Horridly Guilty against God and his King Charles Stuart your Sacrifices are Dirt your hypocrisies are the Greatest your Rebellions have no compare suffer all these things and whatever more to be burnt up and consumed in you by his sent-out fire of mercy which if you shall madly neglect to do deceive not your selves it shall suddenly do its other work commissioned for to make ashes of you and all those mountains of opposition that men or Devils have can or dare raise up to obstruct the way and rule of Gods Vice-gerent Charles Stuart your only lawful King and Soveraign God is irritated and you have done it look to your selves when the Almighty kindles and sends forth a fire as here he doth read I beseech you to what purpose he doth it The Prophet Amos assures evil doers no less then six several times in his first Chapters which are but very short yet most admirable full to this very purpose there he saith That the Lord will send a fire that the Lord will Commission a fire That the Lord will kindle a fire And to what purpose I beseech you is all this even as here it shall devour it shall burn up it shall consume if not sin then sinful persons Do you ask me what it shall do I answer you and all for I fear no man do what shall it not do when commissiond and sent out by God as this is what shall it do why it shall burn up his enemies on every side if they repent not Ps. the 97. 3 verse There shall go a fire before him and Burn up his Enemies round about The Army of Horses went before this fire comes next after that nothing may escape I dare not yet leave this Commissioned fire of the Lords sent out upon this particular day the Eighth of Aprill what I have now to say in this so wonderful proceed of God Almighty is to you Oliver Cromwell Protector of these three Kingdoms pro Tempore Sir well look about you and best bethink your self and know Sir That for more then three months it was my continual meditation and amaze to think why it was dictated Waite until the Eighth of Aprill why to that day I could never give his Majesty and Heroick Brother any clear or certain reason for it but having upon that day seen the vision and then heard the words of Commission to the Almighties fire in our Kings behalf I can now give His Majesty his Brother you and all such a certain and true reason for it as will astonish the world there is in it Wonder upon Wonder it looks like the Children of Israel being brought out of Egypt upon the very day both the Lords own doings O that I were with you your Lordship should find I would speak to you as sent of God not flatteringly Examin your self Sir did not the Lord some two years since Easter next it will be so I again say did he not then in mercy send to you Oliver Cromwell the wife of Thomas Chalener a free-holder dwelling on the Edge of Sussex whose Commission was to this very purpose First to ask you whether or no the Vineyard you yet gathered the fruit of was yours or Gods if it was yours then to say so if Gods then your duty forthwith to give the fruit of it to his Steward Charles Stuart for God had given it unto him by inheritance if you refused forthwith to submit or doubted his right of inheritance she tells you that God had vouchsafed for the decision of his right three wayes Chuse you either of them God would appear for him whose unquestionable right it was for in the Court and justice of Heaven the Father having paid the debt the Son was to have the inheritance Her first offer to you is to cast Lots and by lot you should see on whom the Lord would resolve it to that you wisely considered and said what if the lot should go against me she truly told you it would your answer was that way of lot you would decline Her second offer was would you fight personally with Charls Stuart and so decide it to that as I have heard you gave no answer indeed God forbid that any such damnable thought or word should ever be found in your heart or mouth An impiety of that ugly nature I print to the whole world will never be found in you as ill as men generally speak of you who was most Culpable before God knows I do not The persons of Kings are sacred Appointed of God and anointed by his Prophets wise and honest men know it well their persons are rarely to be exposed Crowns not to be worne by any but whom the Lord sets apart with us it must be so the law of God and our Land best directs in that particular and I firmely believe That as you said nothing to that second offer of the Lords for they are all his offers not hers so upon that very consideration let the world say what they will you have hitherto declined and ever will do to put on his Crown they were fools that said you were afraid of the Army when t was offered you no no you were afraid of God and your King do well and be so Ever I commend your wisdom in that you put that Dirty assembly upon tryal what they would do with the Crown whereby you might clearly see and discover the Enemies of God and the King also the haters of Monarchy how could you a served your King better you have out-witted all those Arrant Good subjects The Lord shewed me before their sitting and told me when they were to sit their sacrifices were Dirt you had it before those were the very Men that was the Dirty Parliament his Crown I say
