be on the contrary shine hold forth the glory of me your creator and redeemer who have ransomed you from the hands of them that were stronger then you shine and let my glory be seen upon you for they shal be afraid of you that hate you shine ye therefore and be like so many stars that shines in the Firmament and glister like so many as the only people that are redeemed from death to light for thy light is come I am your life and light and by being absent from you your condition was a condition of death and darkness and you were compassed about with abundance of sorrow by being scattered abroad in the world but I who am your life and light even I the mighty God of Jacob am now risen to bring you into your own country even together ö daughter of Sion shout and rejoyce and cry aloud Sing and make merry and be glad in your King who am now Risen with mighty power for to bring you into your own land therefore rejoyce and sing for thy light is come Sion that vvas scattered abroad but now shal be gathered into your own country even into Judea for the glory of the Lord is risen upon you even my glory is risen upon thee for to bring thee out of a strange country and as Pilgrims and sojourners into your country there for to make my glory and light shine and rest upon thee for the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee even upon thee ö captive daughter of Sion for to make you see and know that I have purposed to bring you into your own country once again and there to make thee the praise of the whole earth and the earth to see and know my power by which I do things saith I the Lord of host who hath caused my glory for to arise upon thee for you have now a more surer word of prophesie to which you do well to take heed as to a light that shineth in a darke place until the day dawn and the day star arise in your hearts this was given to the church in that age who was to observe the word of the Apostles then and at that time they being but babes and children so had a rule for to walk by which rule the Apostle bids them take heed unto that they walke by it for how long even saith the same Apostle until the day break until there be some further appearance of light a more glorious dispensation then now is and the day star in your harts that is until you do see know God dwelling in you and so do see know Christ who is the bright and morning star to be one with the Father Son holy Ghost but one God dwelling in you who is your life and strength and so to see this God in love to be your All and in all and the very life of all things til then you being weake have had need of a writen rule to walke by but now you have no longer need of any thing to walk by no not the Scripture to walk by for I even your King and Lord wil be unto you Scripture and Law and rule and ways and formes of worships yea I wil be all arise and shine for thy light is come and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee even my glory shall now shine upon thee for to make thee the praise of the whole earth and the joy of all the nations arise and shine for behold darkness shall cover the earth and gross darkness the people arise shine your condition wil and shal be happy saith I the Lord of host who hath made my glory to shine upon you even upon you ö Sion whom I wil gather into Judea from amongst other people but I wil tel you one thing even you whom I do gather up into Judea for behold this darkness shall cover the earth and gross darkness the people even when you shal see light and walk in light and have light to be your guide and have my glory shining upon you even then shal others the earth be covered with darkness for there shal be no clear light and sun shining upon the earth even upon those that come not up to worship me the Lord of host in Jerusalem but instead of light there shal be darkness and instead of breaking forth of light there shal be a mist and a cloud that shal overspread it self for a while so that they that go not up to Jerusalem shal not have that clear light neither shal they see and know that glory which I wil and shal make out to you ö Sion for you ö Sion shal eat and drink and be ful and have the bread of life and water of life when they that come not up shal be in want and shal be hungry when Sion shal be ful for I wil take away all their food even their formes and wayes of worship and wil utterly destroy them and bring them to nothing for these things as forms of worship have they had some comfort in using them but I wil leave these dispensations wherein I have formerly appeared and wil make darkness cover the earth in this sence for I wil deprive them of all their formes and Church governments for I wil forsake them and they shal receive no benefit by them even darkness shal cover them that they shal not see light in them even gross darkness even such a darkness wil and shal light upon poor creatures that walke by forms and so think to be carried to heaven upon the sholders of their Priests but darkness yea such darkness that both Priest and people shal be amased for they shal be driven out of their common-road and so shal be forced to seek a new way even this darkness shal light upon those that are malicious and ful of envy and so would of a sudden destroy their fellow creatures darkness wil and shal overcome such for though they preach and pray yet al wil not save them but that they must be destroyed and brought to nothing for saith the Lord of host darkness shall cover the earth there wil be no clear sight of God and no clear sight of my way for they shal not come to my knowledge and so to the enjoyment of me here or in any place but where Sion shal be gathered together even my people whom I have raised from the dead and so wil bring them up to Sion at Ierusalem the City where formerly I dwelt which is in Judea and there I wil make them shine and be the glory of the whole earth and after this first resurrection that they shal have for to be raised from a condition of death and slavery into a condition of joy and life where the Second death shal have no power over them for this is the resurrection wherein I wil set you free from all death and you shal dy no more for I wil be your life and you

to the city Ierusalem glory and light shal shine upon them when darkness shall cover the earth Curteous Reader let not the strangeness of these things make thee hard to believe that such things as are here mentioned shall come to pass by the rudeness of these lines having no eloquent termes to set them forth and by reason of the weakness or contemptibleness of the writer of this peece which must prove a torment and a fire to burn and torment the gods of the earth and every thing that hath bin Idolized of or by men they haveing set their fancies more upon outward objects then upon the All of all things But rather let these times move thee to pitty and softness and tenderness of heart with a yearning bowels of pitty and compassion to thy poor fellow-creatures who are destitute of the outward creatures and perhaps have not bread to eat or any drink to drink or cloths to cover their nakedness I say be moved to all thy fellow-creatures with such pitty and compassion as to relieve their wants and if thou hearest any cry in the streets for the Lords sake give me a peece of bread give him and turn not thy self away and say thou hast nothing if thou hast lest the Lord turnes away himself from you and you cry and he will not hear as thou didst hear the poor cry and would not for know that pure religion is to visit the widdow and the fatherless that if you wil indeed appear to be truely religious and not hypocrites be kind hearted give up to the relief of those that want Moreover Reader I cannot chuse but minde thee of a word or two and that is this you may reade that Paul was counted mad but he said whither he was mad or whither he were besides himself it was for their sakes and so say I whether I am mad or besides my self it is for your sakes as it is the good pleasure of my Father for to make me so that I may give you warning of what he will do or God in me speaks to you for to make you cast away your Idols and seem to the eye to be less practitioners of religion that so you may be more fulfillers of your duties and less hearers then now you are that so you may be more perfect in doing and however you thinke of me let not the notion of madness possess your spirits as for you to thinke that I am mad but rather think it is the pleasure of the Father to turn the world upside-down and so to make use of me as he did of his son Jesus Christ and as his son Jesus did do things contrary to the custome of the world in those daies and all the powers of the world was not able for to keep him from doing his own worke even so I say the infinite God having chosen me for to declare these things to you I do not question but he will by his infinite power carry this his own worke on none shall be able to hinder him from doing his pleasure And however you do think of me as to judge me by your pharisaicall holyness and are ready to cry out I have a devil yet it is no other with me then it was with Jesus Christ whom the wise pharises or those that did seem to be most religious for those formes and customes as were then in use according to the law of Moses which they were loth to be beat off even I say those did cry out against Jesus that he had a devil and was the chiefe of the divels and that he were a blasphemer notwithstanding he were the only Son sent of the Father for to abolish and so put to an end those ways of worships that were then extant but they being possest with a fancy of their own that God would not forsake that which he had given to his servant Moses so to them for to continue for ever and so would not believe that the Christ were the Messias because he came to alter and change the state and condition of their waies and formes as they walked by notwithstanding it was the pleasure of the infinite God to forsake those formes although he had given them for to continue for ever which ever came out so soon as the time was at an end for to appear in that way and then to leave that and so to take to him another and in forsaking of these formes which he had given them his Son whom he had sent or his messengers met with many enemies crying out against him and his Apostles or Disciples and among these his enemies were the learned Pharises and Priests and they did stir up the people for to forsake Christ and not to cleave to him for he hath a divel he speaks blasphemy and will you believe what he saies and so they cryed out against Paul how he turned the world upside-down and away with him said the learned Pharisee he is not fitting to live and if my Fathers only choise son met with such hard servants for to deale with him so cruelly and to tel him he had a divel it is no wonder in this age of ours why I should or any of the messengers of the Lord of host that are sent by him meet with any other but the same as to be looked upon as one that turnth the world upside down so not sitting to live by declaring new things as if the mighty God of Jacob had bound himself to be in one form and to tarry there for ever and so it is no more to me why you should call me a blasphemer and you even you O destroying Priests that run before you be sent and so in your pulpits vent your malice as to cry against me and so to bid people beware of me seeing the Priests in old time the outside Hipocritical Pharise in thosedaies did do it to Jesus and I say it is no moere to me to be called so by a proud Hipocritical dissembling outside pople that vvould fain appear to be godyl so for such to say I am a blasphemer have a Divel and thus some doth come as they did to Christ some out of malice and some out of ignorance being loth to be deprived of these forms and customs of waies and rules to walk by for matter of worship religion being then grown to be more used for custom sake then for anything else as it is now aday wherby it is high time for the Lord of host to appear and so to take away your life as your formes and waies of worships now and so for not making a right use of them to deprive you of them that you may no longer dissemble with your maker which will be but just with God for to do so for notwithstanding all your formes and waies of worships which you have and walk by ye are a most eruel and malicious people full of all manner of hypocrisie
