raised For he had been lifted high And instructed in School most pure Of the eternity O Iohn was often taken up And had a view I know Which made him love and speak so much Of loves hid flaming glow O Iohn by spirit he was led And whether did he goe To read in the Originall Great mysteries to know Iohn a brave witness unto truth In Patmas did remaine For testimony unto Christ And it was Eternall

throughout The sea after its kind doth praise And the springs round about The Spirit moves and all things then Do look most sweet and choyce And all things had its limits set By the Deities voice The Spirit moves on waters and Then day and night comes forth And all things had its due set place This is Scriptures report O when you see the waters and When you the Sea behold O think upon these movings that Such mysteries unfold O the time cometh on apace Those that in darknesse lie Shall be called to wonder at Thy glorious Spirit high The Mâ—rriners that to fro So on the seas abound Shall take notice of Spirit high In its Original Crown Those that thus travel in the depth And on the waters lay Shall then behold the Spirit high In its Creation day They that do on the waters go And the Lords wonders see Shall sweetly rejoyce and sound forth The Spirits high glory The Spirit mov'd on the waters That there the ships might swim That should be made use of after That fallen man did sin The Spirit caused ships to sail That Creation might be The more beheld and there you may The Spirits movings see He gave wisdom for to build ships That his works might appear In their great choice variety To man more bright and clear And that you might learn the more On God in all to look And be carried forth unto him In his Original book It is a delicate spirit which Is in Deity wall The spirit it is very good It comes from him that is all The spirit is Creator too And with the word doth joyne O the spirit is one also In Deity divine The spirit in Original Hath been with God and Christ And also doth proceed from them And is eternal life The spirit on the waters mov'd And great increase did come Of fishes which did multiply And in the waters swom In the waters variety Of fishes that are great And also such as are most sweet And choice delightful meat O what a rare spirit that moved Thus in Creation time A spirit and a lovely one That is high and sublime He made the whale so huge so high And so great every way So strong that it is as a King In the waters to sway Nothing can there before it stand But it wheels all about And hath a perfect victory In the Ocean throughout O the whale overturns ships It is a mighty thing That thus the greatest vessels split And to destruction bring A glorious spirit breathed forth On the waters that it Should thus contain the mighty whale That there as King doth sit For all things are by spirit made It ordered the whole And gave command to every thing In the Creation mold O Job when that thou camest out Thou shalt sing of the whale O thou shalt shew him as a King Over fishes and scale And thou that to God spakest of it When thou shalt see sons reign Upon thy standing tising feet Thou wilt admire the whale Thou wilt admire the spirit In its Creation rare Which so disposed every thing None can to it compare The spirit also it did make The little fishes small And his great power and his love Doth sweetly shine in all O the spirits moving was rare In all his fiery race In every thing it did appear On the Creation face But yet those that go on the sea Cannot thus sing of thee Without the knowledge of the Lord There is no melody But O go to the Marriners And lead them to thy seaâ— That they may read the spirits works In creation compleat Then when they on the waters go They will see spirit there And then they will in every thing Behold the spirit rare O go unto the Marriners Let them unto flesh die And let them relish the spirit And Jesus Christ espie O let them follow Jesus Christ The King of Nations great And they shall then give thanks to thee And run unto thy seat If that poor Marriner were here That in prison hath been Spirit would of the sea and ships Bee talking unto him If that that Marriner were here The spirit would to him sing That sea and ships should be usefull And employed for the King O if that Marriner would come The spirit would him aske Why that he did so often say Love should abide and last O if the prisoners would but mind What in their bonds they say They would act more for Iesus Christ In this back-sliding day If that the prisoners did mind this They would better fruit bring Which should be manisestly seen To all in every thing The spirit is in Creation seen In every Bâ—â—d that sings And in each creature that doth here On earth so sweetly spring O spirit thou art sweetly seen In thy creating houre In all things that here cometh forth In every plant and flower O spirit it sparkels and shines Forth in the Onix stone And in the Berill O spirit It is the rare choice one O the spirit shineth throughout It doth most sweetly look What a pleasant witness is this Wherein so much is put Its spirits influence doth came Trees to look fresh and green Each little sprig for to have sapp Whereon the leaves are seen It causeth blossoms and the fruit It is from spirits blow And his rare workmanship is seen In each garden below The spirit it is greatly seen In the creation all And it is reason that it should Be at the spirits call The spirit also did appear In threefold councill that To raise man-kind out of the dust On his creation sat Three is not spoken of before Nor in this manner nam'd But they are clearly mentioned when Poor man is to bee fâ—am'd That so he might behold them all And think on this love well Though other creatures had the three Yet not so visible Sure the worlds originall cannot Bring forth such a choice sound Le ts look up to this diety For there it doth abound O it doth greatly sparkel there But few can it behold So as to magnify this love That doth such things unfold The honour shew'd to man is great He is pleas'd above all For all are subject unto him At his command and call But when that he was form'd and fram'd He had not breath to breath But then the Lord did it covay And unto him bequeath Incomprehensible this love Dâ—ety breathed in This creature whom they had thus fram'd And given life to him Most glorious was his state and seat Till that an angell bright Became a serpent and
brings But O observe the true Gospell For it is choice indeed And it is very glorious For the soul on to seed How sweetly died Sillinghast In Gospell sound so choice And O how much did his soul prize Thee in new covenant voice O he was faithfull unto thee And much comfort did bring To thine how sweet's his rising day That kept close to the King And did not from new covenant start Love swallowed up his prime And he did witness very high To truth of latter time O how sweetly did Pendâ—rvis Take farewell of all here And was faithfull in testimony And in obedience dear He stood unto new covenant Did not to Sinai run Nor to stone-tables for a rule But did to Zion come O how lovely and sweet was he Who morned for Davids spirit Who did so much desire his march That he might his inherit His soul was sad and could not bear Any should take in hand What was against the blessed son For whom he up did stand O his name and fame it shall live From first unto the last He greatly loved thee and did To thy commands stand fast And every where did speak for thee His heart was on a flame O he was faithfull unto Christ And to his blessed raign And O how sweetly did he speak Forth in the spirits sound Of the commands of Jesus Christ When he went on this ground He own'd the poorest one that he Did look upon as thine And did praise Jesus Christ in all O his soul did incline Unto thy glorious Kingdome and Did long for thy high throne And to behold thy blessed face That art the smiting stone How sweetly did he set thee forth And how did he oppose Those that were not for Christ that is The onely Sharon rose He did not care what any said But kept unto record This is the evill of this day Souls do go from the Lord But sweet were the commands of Christ Unto this servant dear They were to him most pure and bright And did refresh and chear O what a glorious frame is this Sure it is very safe And it wi l certainly lead souls In to the straightest gate O lovely died Pendarvis Lovely was his renown And every way most pretious And blessed is his Crown He was lovely in principles Lovely in Doctrine And lovely in his practice too Which beautified him Blessed was he in holiness Which did so sweetly shine In his most humble holy look With countenance divine He died unto yoke-fellow And unto children dear And early in the morning he Approches the throne near That so for dear Jerusalem He might with face on ground Go weep and mourn unto the Lord Who will by such be found He waked early that he might For poor Jerusalem go Unto the throne and there he wept That others did not so O this beloved blessed one Did long so after thee And thou didst Crown his daies and life With spirits melodie And he was not rash with his tongue But he did speak most meek He was a choice and lovely one He was a dilicate sheep And a sweet pleasant Psalm thou hast Sent for this lovely one Who did delight in Jesus Christ More then in any one O that others did also mind This example so rare That they might go forth after him That is so bright and fair And my heart doth to children go I would ly at thy feet And beseech thee to carry them Unto thy Gospell fear O I could even die O Lord That they might live to thee And embrace that pure Gospel law Where is such melodie O that those poor souls would now come From that which is so dark From Sina's law which even doth Shoot like a peitcing dart O it doth shoot ' gainst thee O Lord How can I it embrace For it shoots against the covenant Which hath such glorious grace Though thy Gospell-commands I love And fellowship would crave Yet I had rather go to earth And ly in the deep Grave Then to enjoy it with those that Doe so love Sina's walk How can I embrace it with them That for that covenant talk O I cannot have fellowship Though I in it delight For so to hear my Saviour wrong'd Is grievous in my sight But O I would have fellowship With faithfull reall spirits According to a Gospell rule Through my dear Saviours merits O fellowship is sweet indeed And will be till I die And then a witness you shall have To it that is more high With testimony against those That are apostates great And against Seperates also That do love Sina's seat I matter not what any say Who will not these things own For I shall still sing more of it And for thy raigning throne O lovely spirit thou art best That cometh down to me And carries forth my soul in this Choice and sweet harmony O rare spirit O thou art rare That shineth forth so pure Thou art the high and blessed one That shall allwaies indure O spirit thou art very choice That Ioel said before Should after Christ come down and it Is come and shall much more O rare spirit thou art the same Come to Disciples then And did seal unto Joels word For after ages men But not to seal and terminate It only unto them But the first fruits it was of that Shall be to latter men And thy handmaids were promised Much of that spirit choice And it is and it shall come forth In a rare singing voice It shall be poured all along While that the ages last But Antichristian Rabby's do Indeavour this to blast The glorious choice spirit Souls O the annointings sweet They 'l make you sing and quickly lay All

mouth The Psalm it hath a joyfull sound It victory can sing Now over the accusing tongue And what it forth doth bring O the Psalm it is very pure And to Companions dear Because the Lord appears in it All Cheaters for to fear O thou dost bring us to the shore Where living Creatures be And we behold the glory and We do thy power see O victory I sing O Lord Against the lying mouth O Halleluia I sing And victory throughout O spirit it is powerfull In these thy comings down O what a mighty royalty In beholding thy Crown O what a Noble King is Christ How he appears in sight When any opposition comes Against children to sight I was an eye and ear witnesse to this Psalm against the Quakers and heard many of their impudent objections I shall instance some The men came in sate down in the room at the end of two hours spake against the truth at the name of Christ and electing him then the voice answered their severall objections which are in the Psalm they said we were told she could neither hear nor see and yet she answered in words and names me one in the room at which they raged higher and spake against the Kingdome truth but the Lord sent down a louder voice that did drown this and so swift that the writer could not take all but as you may read victory so I can witnesse that it had victory over them that they were not able to tarry in the room but went away raging against the truth in the Psalm pray mark the Psalm read it again and again much incouragement to those that have the truth at that time to see such a decision of truth against error O what a victory O Lord Doth from Jesus Christ come O God the Father doth appear Most clearly in his Son O what a victory O Christ Doth shine forth in thy face In thy bright resurrection And in thy glorious grace Victory over death and sin A Royall victory By him that now in spirit doth Against the Devil cry O what a glorious victory God in it doth come down Against all that Satan can do His blessed truth to crown O what a victory is this That God to us doth show That by the very powers of Hell Can never have a blow A glorious victory indeed O souls will you come in And close with Jesus Christ this day And part with every sin Victory victory I sing In this triumphing day Over the Devil Hell and Sin And fears shall flie away When the Spirit is poured out O let not children fear Although the Devil in his doth rage And at out-goings tear The glory of the Lord is here O then let Children Behold his power and Majesty And stand in aw of him Unto thy children thou wilt give What is to thee most dear O thou wilt shew kindnesse to them That unto thee draw near O thou art faithfull unto them They shall with comfort meet That â—o keep close to Jesus Christ And prize his spirit sweet O blessed be the glorious Lord He will with us abide And will appear ' gainst those that do Against his spirit side O blessed be the Lord that doth A victorious Psalm bring O praised be that mighty God That in Spirit I sing Praised be God hath so poured And so flowed forth here Against that hellish light that would Thy own appearance tear But O thy children O Lord They shall abide and stand And be kept close unto thy word By thy outstretched hand O thy children have not an ear To hear their lying tongue Thy own children shall not receive What from hell forth doth come Thy children shall not embrace The cheats that go about But they shall be kept to the day Of Redemption throughout Thy children are kept so fast By the power of the Son That now they cannot start aside Though such inchantments come And praised be God for that which We here have found this day Of God and Jesus Christ which doth In our souls bear sway O You are very safe who do Sit down and sup with Christ Who have his prepared body So freshly brought in sight You have heard of the body which God prepared for you To be broken that still you might His love afresh still view O 'T is a Royall body Friends I know you love it dear And that you do not at all mind What against it appears O 't is a royall body souls What can you of it say Have you embraced Jesus Christ In the Fathers own way O see how spirit Jessifres Against the Devils lies O let it therefore teach your souls For it more up to rise The more you do love God poor souls And Jesus Christ do see The more you will prize and esteem Of spirits melody O you his beloved children dear You should for spirit stand You that profess for Jesus Christ And for Jerusalems Land Give thanks to God that overcame Though you so sinfull be And this very God will appear Against all Treachery And go away you vile ones that Do so kick against him You are defi'd by spirit and He manifests your sinne O go thy way from spirits shine Which here appears throughout And against thee this day doth plead And thy deceitfull mouth But 't is not in thy power to break This pleasant Harmony Although thou comest with hellish tricks Against it for to flie This Vision was the night before the Quakers came shewed to her but she knew not of their coming but the Lord did provide for their coming By this we understand the rise of them and in what strength we must encounter with them Lord thou the vision hast fulfill'd That I this night did see For thou shewedst a grievous thing That did come to bite me Thou shewedst a Cocatrice to me And it was very high And it had teeth that were most sharp And against me it did she Its teeth were like to iron Even like iron strong And a fiery eye I did behold As it did passe along It first came in most cunningly And a while it did walk But at last it did open mouth And against me did talk O what a terrible sight dear Lord Did I in night behold But then came power from above And of it I did take hold It was a very grievous sight Unto my fleshly pare But O the Lord did then appear And strengthened my heart For O thou didst bring forth O Lord The other night a Vision sweet For a Lamb then there did appear That stood slain for
Which was slaine for thee and me This body it was high and great And had a glorious rise And this represents those that also Shall from him obtain life According to the will of God And the most glorious Son And the spirit for all the three Are seen in Salvation Many they say Christ is the Son As to justification But as to sanctification they do Deny the righteous One. They therefore are to be reprov'd As slighters of the Son And as underminers of what For Jehova did come And spirit reproves Rabbies also The gross and the refin'd For they are also of those that Do si ly ones beguile Though Rabbies say we have left sure word Yet they shall know ere long That spirit doth preach the Gospel Forth with the soundest tongue Though Rabbies fall off from the Lamb That is most pure and clean Yet they shall see 't is the spirit of power Which on our souls do erne Alas poor Rabbies you are not Like unto those of old For they were not so lifted up Above Christ pretious folde O people are deluded and They have been many a year Ere since Antichrist come on the stage They have been beguiled every where Though old Dr. Apostles preacht And Christ himself did learne Yet O they are besotted with Antichrist stinking leven Though Christ speaketh of latter days Wherein he would his spirit pour In such choice great variety They 'l not believe it in its hour And Christ saith that before it shall come Lyin words and many a cheat Against the spirit and the Son And his most glorious seat And they do say how shall we know Between true and the false But God he sends his spirit forth For to shew what is dross And true spirit doth take in Scripture By faith no allegories And it doth shew forth Jesus Christ In 's birth death and his rise And the spirit it sheweth forth Christ In his offices and we may see The three in one and one in three In divine diety The spirit shewed the true God In true man here to dwell And thus shewed the choice rare one Through forth the joyfull knel. The spirit shewed the figures And all the choice rare tipes And the sweet emblems which before Did come for Jesus Christ And it shewed that Christ is enjoyed By the indwelling spirit By its witness and Testimony Unto the Godheads merit True spirit doth shew that Christ is enjoyed By a sweet lively faith The which comes from the Son of God And is no tattle and prate True spirit shews when Christ is enjoyed By faith we then up rise To the pleasure of God in Christ And appear holy in his eyes True spirit shews when Christ's enjoyed The soul is justified and sanctified too And that it goes to him alone For Conversation new True spirit leads forth unto Christ And then to be baptized Not as notionist say 't is all in spirit And plain Scripture despise But true spirits honours the Son And his out goings too It honours the head and all that he Would have his members do True spirit don't bring head without members Nor head and members without a way Wherein they sweetly together may talk Of the rich Ascention day But true spirit takes head and members And shews Christ lovely way And gives direction how they should Act towards him in this day Spirit sheweth forth Christ and his way How they should act and speak And discovers that worship which Their Souls should undertake Companions forsake not the assembly Of Saints it is most dear But seek it in the way of Christ Which most lovely doth appear Companions don't deny fellowship Nor the ordinances sweet If that you do spirit will reprove And tell you you embrace a cheat But Companions witness to ordinances And to true fellowship For Jesus Christ is held forth there Before him a garden compleat Companions you may take this comfort From Christ Doctrine this day That you have a good conscience though Other make of you a prey Companions this doctrine exhorts you To walk chearfully along That you may honour the spirit And grow for Christ more strong Companions be exhorted now Alwaies to watch and pray That so you may hold forth spirit Most lively in your way Companions be exhorted to Cleave unto Spirits Psalme Which is so full of doctrine That will our poor hearts warme Companions be exhorted to esteem This doctrine in a Psalms Because t is of our Davids love And sheweth forth Solomons arme Companions be exhorted to Trust in your power high For assistance when so many do Against the truth so fly Dear companions we exhorted are To depart from consusions all And every principle and practise That doth new covenant inthrall Companions we are exhorted to Praise the new covenant high Because our dear Saviour did once So willingly for us die That so we may not account low Nor bring objections against that But keep close to refurrection Which will lay all enemies flat Companions we thus exhorted are That none may take away our Crown The which we do enjoy in this Upon true Paradise ground O Companions we are exhorted That none may rob us heer Of the rare white stone and new name Which so pretious doth appear Companions the time of love is sweet In paradice pure ground O it doth smell most delicate Let us it compassround Let us compass the Tabernacle Where the golden Pot of Manna stands Which will fill and nourish our souls In journying to the pleasant land O we shall see our Aarons rod And delight in its buddings there In its coming forth against the foe It will all enemies tear Companions the white stone looks bright It is a lovely one It is elect choice and pretious Le ts go unto this stone O frends let us follow the starr That leads up to the Throne Which is that lovely spirit for which We have sighed and groan'd A beloved star dear Companions A glorious star indeed Which the Father hath bestowed on us With which he doth us feed O let us dearly prise that star That leads unto the King Let us follow it allwaies For it will thither bring The star conducted the wise men But not Herod though he Said where is the Babe I le worship him I le also go and se But the Lord God he doth discover Such in there practice still For though he said I le worship him It was that he might him kill Companions let us keep our eye Still fixed on the son And let us prise him very high How ever he doth come Converse with the spirit in Scripture That right models you may know Be ashamed of what you have done amiss And he will the pattern show We shall have direction and guide Both what to do and say In all our practices throughout In this the latter day We shall be ready to receive Of our Lord when that we Are made ashamed of our wayes We shall his glory see When
I 'le confirm With testimony high For opposition it will come And Babylon against it fly This Gospel hath confirmed been With signes and miracles so That none can overcome although They do against it go Though Antichrist began to rise Long since and housands bring Something against it yet they can't Conquer the blessed King O the doctrine of the Apostles Hath been declared to you Who are baptised in Jesus Christ And see his death so new The doctrine of the Apostles Hath been held forth very cleer To you by the spirit of the Son And you have for it appear'd The doctrine and application It hath been opened quite And manifested unto you Exceeding dear and bright The Apostles rule hath been declar'd Wherein poor ones should walk Which Jesus Christ would have you know In thought in deed and talk O then dear ones do you follow This Gospel which is pure And prise the Apostles doctrine Which alwaies shall indure It was confirm'd by miracles And wonders which were great By that mighty powerfull spirit Which gave it forth compleat O prise the Apostles doctrine It Antchrist throws down And it exalteth Jesus Christ And his most blessed Crown Practise the Apostles doctrine Faith and Baptisme they did preach And afterwards you see that they After true fellowship did reach Repent and be Baptil'd said they For remission of sinne Into the name of Jesus Christ Which doth salvation bring Repent and be Baptised and then Walk you in fellowship For unto all his ordinances You ought for to submit He will shew you his administrations Most purely and compleat That are ashamed of their waies And inquite for his seat O mind the Apostles doctrine And do not you unite To any thing but what it doth Call you to and invite It is the antient blessed rule And it lays all things flat That doth not conform to it O hearken unto that And when the glorious one doth come And joyn to the soul with power It straight conforms to a rule And submits in that houre It doth lay hold on him by faith And to a rule doth stand It challenges all that doth oppose His royall sweet command It doth not walk with subtilitie Or in a mixed way But it keeps very close to him And on his word doth stay After Baptisme Scripture doth show And sweetly teach the rest And leads forth to the whole worship Where his do feed and rest For the word brings the soul unto Conformity in every thing That there may be compleatness in The service of the King Not in a confused or mixed way Or an erroneous spirit But after the way of Jesus Christ Purchased by his merit They will not onely turn from Apostacy so vile But even from all things that do The new choice covenant spoyle The Apostles doctrine will instruct And reach in every thing And it will also lead from that Which doth displease the King O Faith and Baptisme it is A doctrine very sweet To those that do love Jesus Christ And are his obedient sheep This is not against fellowship But for assembling According to a Gospel rule Which is pleasing to him And O such fellowship is sweet That is one a right ground O do not rest content till you Have such true fellowship found O such a fellowship is sweet And clad in rich array It 's such a fellowship O Lord We long for in this day O such a fellowship is choice That doth not commandements break O let us not be like to them That love a mixed seat The law of the Son it is sweet Keep his commands in mind In his death and resurrection And look unto that time His death and Buriall is seen In water bread and wine Holds forth his body and his bloud And keeps it fresh in mind And when it is received by faith It doth great comfort bring And strengthens us in our walk And converse with the King O it s a lovely and pure Christ That was so offered Let 's fetch strength from his flesh and blood Draw vertue from our head O blessed be the glorious Lord That to us so doth come And shews his power abundantly To every poor one A lovely spirit Christ hath caused To come in this our day To shew to us

stone it will command The Towns both far and nigh It will draw up Jordan Rivers And also make them dry Though a little stone yet it will sure Jerico waâ—ls breake and lay And batter alâ— Fortifications That rise up in this day Though a ittle stone it will consume And cast Egyptians down ' I will ruin all Gomorrahs and All Sodoms filthy towns Though a little stone yet it will wound And cast Leviathans lows O 't will break all the jaws of those Who do it from them throw Though a little stone 't will break down Towns And ruin Islands too And go through all Europe also Every Tyrant to undo Though a little stone it is so frim There 's none can make a flaw No defilement can reach the stone Which will bring to its barre It will indeed pass sentence on The perjur'd sort of men And vow-breakers 't will utterly slay And undo their greatness then Though a little stone yet 't will go forth Through the Nations that are large O it will indeed not be kept up Nor swim in a little barge O 't will faile through great ships unto The remore places farther And there 't will do most great exploits To the praise of the Father The little stone 't will the image smite And 't will break both toes and legges Yea thighs and arms it will slay it 'T will sure wound all their heads 'T will cast down every one who doth So insolently appear O therefore call now thy friends up That they may draw
