of those Mansions that are near to me let them be driven out for the present Therefore let this suffice from the Scriptures themselves not to mention those particular Idea's and Manifestations that to some it hath been given to see these several Heavens which upon others cannot be imposed for to believe who yet have not those anointed Eyes given to see withal But surely there are some standing in the figure of the Body Whose Spirits have roved to and fro to see these several Mansions with Spirits of all sizes and degress who are herefor designed Only hereout excluding those who are for the Dragon's Kingdom Who do pass away in a reprobate sense out of the Body Those left-hand Goats have no portion within these Eternal Gates a deep Gulf is fixed It is only of the Sheep and Lambs that I am to treat who have found out this new and only Life path-way Who though they are not come to the top-stone of perfection before they see the dissolution of the body Yet having attained to a good degree they may come unto the very next Throne Region and there awhile stay till they have drawn and assumed a heavenly clarity that is such an Essential Body against which no exceptions by the highest Courts of Dignities can be objected These now are the highest degrees of those who before Perfection be wrought do cease out of the Mortal Body Then again there are of a lower degree of growth Now what reservatory is there for them who may be but young in the New Birth As to this it was clearly imparted unto my Intellect that such did enter into a more inferiour Mansion than Paradice for that was too pure and serene for such Therefore a lower degree is prepared for them till they do attain to an Increase of the Divine Nature They want not here their true Pastoral Teachers for the Spirit of Christ is every where with his own Therefore it was said that he went and preached to the Spirits in Prison that were disobedient in Noah's days For should all the old world have been cut off at once and sealed under a final condemnation the Attributes of God's Love Mercy Goodness Truth and Long-suffering would have been obliterated wherefore he must have yet had respect unto such after the dissolution of their bodies as had a sense in them awakened for compunction and sorrow for what Evils they had committed in their Bodies To confirm this that we might not be altogether out of hope for such as may die in the first beginnings of Regeneration it is given me to declare that if these pass out of the Body such cannot go indeed immediately to God For such will find it otherwise they must wait till they have got somewhat more then what they went out withall in this world and then shall they be admitted to see God Surely there is a Provision made for a perfect Salvation in another Principle besides this For which we have that word in Peter 1 Pet. 3. 19. by which also he went and Preached unto the Spirits in Prison Also these words seem to speak fully to this 1 Pet. 4. 6. For this cause was the Gospel preached to them which were dead which generally is applied to such as are living and yet dead in sins But by the foregoing verse it concerns the first Position verse 5. who saith the Apostle speaking of Christ is ready to judge the quick and the dead so that it implieth there is a Ministry belonging to the dead that are not here made perfect Much more might be enlarged upon some particular sights and manifestations that have hereof been given to some in the Spirit From hence ariseth this Objection If this be a Truth why was it not positively declared and clearly revealed as a foundational Doctrine To which it may be answered That the Infinite Wisdom did judge it meet to conceal this mystery because none might take advantage to turn the Grace of God into wantoâ—ness and thereby to neglect the present opportunity for working out their own Salvation in this present time which would make for a far and more exceeding weight of Glory Therefore left it was for the Worthy to have this Secret made known to them by the Spirit of Revelation who God foreknew would not take Liberty to continue in sin that this Grace after Death might be made manifest towards such as did stand in need hereof But now to great holy and aspiring Spirits these lower Mansions in their Fathers house are too mean who cannot be satisfied to be so many degrees remote any time after death from their God and Lord Jesus since Liberty is proclaimed to work through all while we are in this terrestrial Body For there will be more joy and acclamations in Heaven for one such as shall finish their work here so as to make a full conquest then for milions of Souls that in the invisible Regions must perfect what was lacking to compleat them here Oh said the Spirit it will be well worth your Labour and great Travel to break open this deep Gate and so to put on Christ your Lord as in his all-powerful body that ye may make hereof but one ascending flight This was the Mark that was after Christs ascending so eagerly aimed at and by some in that Age reached to For Christ could not lose the effect of his prayer in that he did make his request that those whom the Father had given him might be with him where he was that so they might see and possess the same glory which could not be till they had gotten the victory For to none else is the admission given into his Kingdom according to that in the Revelations to him that overcometh will I grant saith Jesus to sit with me in my Throne But this may be objected further Those who had the Holy Ghost poured down in such an eminent manner had their way made very easie who was as their fiery Chariot that cut their work short And if any now in this Age had such a high endued Power it might soon give them a translation out of all mortal impediments As to answer this The Holy Ghost in that day was given after a visible manner as a sealing Character displaying and acting forth himself in Gifts and Power and miracles but now the same Spirit works in its beginning after another manner where it falleth it doth all its mighty works Within before it will shew forth his power Without For if the Apostles had not been purified by the Holy Ghost and inwardly sprinkled with the Water of Life for Soul cleansing they could not have rejoyced in that assured hope of entring into the joy of their Lord and Master Then was it plainly opened to me by the Spirit that the Holy Ghost would not now in this latter Age act out his Mighty Deeds by any one till their Hearts were perfectly purified by Faith That Scripture being repeated to me who after believing were
the sweet sappy flowings of the Spirit as Rivers of Oyl which will make all these flaming Wheels work up to a Seraphick height so as hereby to look terribly for Glory and Beauty for Perfection May the 23th 1677. As we were met together at prayer I had the presentation of a Golden Cup out of which did rise a flame of Light as Fire bubling beyond the Brim of the Cup and it was thus spoke who so are able let them drink of it Upon which I considered hereof expecting a further explanation of this Vision Which this Morning thus opened it self that the Cup which was all of Gold presented Christ in his pure Corporeity who had been tried through all Fires and thereby was made a meet Vessel to retain the essential Spirit of the pure flaming Deity that springs high beyond the bounds of humanity as the Fire did above the Cup. Then it was revealed and uttered by a still voice that as I did see the rising of this Fire even so should be the flowing of the Holy Ghost For it was his Fiery Baptism wherewith many should be sprinkled from its going out Oh my Lord why was this Cup tendered for those who were not able to drink down this Spirit of Fire Would it might be our lot Who surely would rejoice to drink down a full draught hereof Oh dear Jesus that by thy self thou wouldst hand this Cup unto us as once thou didst in the figurative way to thy Disciples After I had much after this manner inlarged my self in Spirit to my God and Father the Word then spake in me Ye must first arrive to this Golden Degree then ye shall be flowingly filled with this high spirited Flame Christ the Lord is here â—ory our Example Now then take good heed to those great fiery working Wheels which will frame for you this Golden Vessel Suffer gladly the mighty force of them which will form this Golden Cup in each one where the heavenly and pure elementary matter is prepared Be only found in your diligency and then your great Work-master will be under an engagement to finish this unknown Mystery That so ye may be Golden Cups of Blessings to your self and others May the 26th 1677. In the night being cast into a sleep I saw this Golden Cup again which was presented to my intellectual sight some days before as I was in prayer Now again passing from one to another some few Persons of us being met together The Person that handed this cup to us was in the Garb of an Officer with a Gown and when he came to give it to me somewhat he seemed secretly to whisper which the rest were not to hear which I thought carefully to observe but when I awaked I could not remember any thing of the words which I did believe was of concern I only well retained the Ministrator of this Golden Cup which did not flame out as it did before but there was an Oyly Liquor of flame colour in it which tasted like to pleasant Wine After I was come out of this Night Vision I waited what would be spoken herefrom further to me which interpretation was presently given the Officer personated our Lord Jesus to whom the great Majesty had given the Power of Administration For there is no true Sacramental Institution but when he is present himself who knows those Sanctuary Vessels of his own Body that be thereunto affixed and who are separated from all common use He walks amongst the Golden Cups to convey Flaming Spirit and pure Oyl of Light he doth not put off with dead heartless Signs but letteth in his flowing Nature as Spikenard that when any have drank hereof they do feel an inebriating Spirit that burns as fire upon the Altar of their hearts as a signal witness that the right Administrator hath opened himself in a Celestial Fire-spring Which is the Pool of the Holy Ghost from which every Sanctuary Vessel is to be sprinkled Take ye heed hereto Iune the 1st 1677. This Vision was just upon the Doctor 's taking a House THIS day I had a very deep sense opened in me upon a Vision of several Pits that were filled with muddy Water so thick they were together that my self with some other Persons could not know how to pass without peril of falling into some one or other of them But our way lying through this place we could no way avoid but we must go through it Which was very hazardable irksome and grievous but through fear and heedfulness watchfulness and prayer we did get through And this word I did hear speak saying This shall also turn to your salvation through earnest prayer from the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Then again this night I saw as two of us were going upon our way with great earnestness to be at the end of our Journey there fell a suddain showr and stopped us so as we feared lest the night should come upon us before we should reach the place we were designed to This Vision did plainly speak out there was some present danger at hand which made me desire to be apart to know the mind of the Spirit herein bemoaning those Dicissitudes which might happen for our further probation Then was it shewed me that those Pits which I saw were promising advantages from the Earthly Region Which stood open to plunge us into their deep Abyss as which would drown our superiour Life in their muddy waters For this word came to me while I was considering hereof Escape here for your Life sake for what have you to do in the way of the Assyrians Upon which I prayed earnestly that we might be kept from the many evil occurrences that might happen upon the removal to an outward habitation which I foresaw might be hurtful for the present to our Spirits For which cause those things were presented for how would the Prince of this Earth and Aiery Region triumph to see us who have disdained his Kingdom and all the preferments of it to be catched by any baits from it For I heard this word say in me there would be a great acclamation from out of the bottomless Pit could they but bury your fire-sparkling life therein Therefore fear always while you have any thing to transact where Satan hath to do Then as to the Showr that came while we were journying on it was opened to me that as to the working-wheel of Fire there might be some stop For there was nothing more injurious than floods of Water upon fiery Wheels that is heavenly Spirits involving themselves with earthly things though good and lawful to others yet not to us who had the Nazarite Vow upon us and under such Laws and Institutions as were not made known to others Therefore that which might be justifiable in them would not be to us because under great Light Revelation and Direction The Spirit in us bearing witness hereunto that is to be of great binding Force and Powers to keep us
spirited for more wonderful Conquest and so subdue mighty Thrones and Powers in wicked places in the Spirit of him who is the Captain of the Lord's Host hereby to lead captive what hath captivated us And then let us meet our Melchizedeck King with all the Spoil thereof as a Trophy of Victory Who hath ready in his hand the reward of a Diadem and Crown which he hath reserved for such Conquerors This is the great Motive to animate our Spirits that so we might know it is not a light or momentary thing we do fight for but what is weighty and eternal All which is to make us in good earnest according to a Word which through me did sound saying Put not off your Armory that is of the Spirit at all for in that ye will make all Life-killing Darts to rebound back again no Weapon thereinto can pierce And know that in this Holy War my Peace shall be your Garrison Therefore hold out till the Kingdom is given up unto you which hath been kept away and still will be except the Prince of Might shall take it again in you by violence For which cause I am come to stir you up that so what was designed from Everlasting may now be positively claimed by my Spirit in you Know it is all pleasing to your God that ye should be found in such great Undertakings As your Spirit is great and from a high degree descended so answerably do ye aspire for no less then what you believe your Lord through Conquest in possession hath now obtained December the 11th 1677. A Presentation was given me evidently of an enclosed Rock upon which Floods of Waters did break in to quench a Fire that therefrom did spring so as this Fire could not get the mastery till a descending mighty Flame from the light Orb did come down to keep it and to drink up all those Waters which as Wave upon Wave did beat in but so powerful was the Celestial Flame that nothing more of the Floods were seen And there did distinctly appear a Figure and Form of a light flaming Body that did descend and upward again ascend to a Heavenly Firmament where it was said Now all is swallowed up in Victory December the 12th 1677. This Manifestation was very suitably presented to my inward Mind which was drawn up into a deep and serious consideration how long it might be to the full Conquest and Victory over the original Spring of Sin with all the evil Consequences that thereupon have fallen out While my Spirit was herein much exercised this came before me and brought a Message with it for our comfort and support who are enclosed in Faith's Rock which in particular applied and made out to us that the Vision did plainly speak to us Who though gathered into this Rocky place said the Revealing Word yet see ye are exempted from the violation of these tumultuous Waves which at times and seasons may break in upon my precious Ones As in him on whom no matter of Sin could be found yet there Temptations did sometimes abound who was still found in the Rock of the Deity And thereupon told his Disciples that because they had continued with him in his Temptations therefore he would give them a Kingdom because they suffered and were one with him in all Temptations not to fall under them but to get power over them that this gave Title unto the Thrones there mentioned Now from hence it was further opened unto me That the Fire which first sprang out that was so often damped by the Floods and quenched by being too weak to encounter them it was shewn me to be somewhat that remained of a pure and divine Essence that would still live in Nature as for to refine it and reduce it into what might make it like to God again But being so strongly beat upon by the gathering together of all Waters which doth encompass as a full Sâ—a Tide upon Tide still breaking in upon this Fire-Root out of which also would spring the fiery Branches of Faith that would transplant the Soul into a far higher king of living All which is opposed by the â—â—nundation of many Waters in which the great Leviathan moveth which also are the Seat of the Beast that doth make War together against that Holy Seed yet remaining within the Rock of a Heavenly Humanity So that it is in great danger to be often extinguished for here is two contrary Elements the one in strife against the other the boisterous Waters of the Senses awakened from the tempting Region of these various things which do so well suite with fallen Nature that they may well be too hard for that little Spark that striveth to rise but hath been beaten down as we in our selves have witnessed Whereupon we may expect a stronger force will come unto our help seeing such a strong resistancy is made in order to the stifling of that breathing Life which hath struggled to live in dominion and to prevail over all but hitherto yet found insufficient Upon which this Word of Counsel was given from the Holy Breath that we should so powerfully pray in the Spirit of Elias as to open the pure Fire-Element that the Holy Ghost might thence form out a fiery Breath to consume and drink up every Flood For against this strong and mighty devoâ—ring Flame what Waters can stand before it Now wait again to see the same Victory for God will descend in Everlasting Flames and the Bush of Humanity will all certainly be enlightned with his Glory The time of it is said to be nigh when as the Child of the Burning Element will quench all Waters and by his Flaming Might will pass into the Heavens and rend all Mountains of Flâ—sh and will dry up all Seas before him Who now shall have Faith in their Earth for these things to what a Seraphick state may it bring them up unto Therefore let us improve every such discovery and extend our Faith to the great Augmentor of our weak Flame that if possible such an encrease of Celestial Flame may make with us as to dry up all that hath encompassed our Rock It may now be a time and season when that such a bright flaming Body may be of stead unto us which can at pleasure ascend and secure frail Corporeity It may be well worth enquiring after the excellent Properties of such a divine Creature which doth move under the Cherubs Wing where it can pass to and fro unseen Oh let us further dive into this Magia for great advantage may be made for us to raise out here such a defence as may set us above all fear of Mortality in a day when Perils and great dangers are threatned as an overflowing Scourge to break in upon the World It is time for us to know where to hide where no destroyer may find us Which only must be within the Flashing Skreen of the Holy Deity or Trinity where we may walk in all
their course to renew your strength through the mutual concurrence of your wills Which to me I your Lord do own you have given in Therefore my Spirit I am moving upon the Face of your inward Deep till the whole mystery of the Celestial Figure shall again be restored Therefore I am calling the Eye of your Minds inward that so ye may take knowledge how many steps you have gone up to this Throne and so be encouraged to pass forward You are arrived to the third measure which is the Spirit of Prophecy and Revelation here is a pleasant standing because you have prospects of the unknown Scenes of Gâ—ory great advantage is from hence because you do live in the divine Idea's of what is contained in the invisible Sphear Yet far be it from thee to â—ake up rest here or like Moses for to die in journying to the Land where the New Ierusalem doth stand Yet four 〈◊〉 higher there are which have been seen in the Mount of Vision Who then now as high descended Spirits will in mighty Faith attempt them and renounce what ariseth of fear and doubt As Faith and Love are the Wheels that do hither bring so fearfulness and unbelief do the Wings of the Mind bind down Oh how flow of heart have you been to believe what of these Ministrations hath been so frequently prophesied by my Spirit Come forward on and put forth that little grain of Power which you have already in your selves and see what you can make hereof The more you act it forth the more it will encrease For as the Ministration of Immediate Revelation doth more clearly immerse you into the knowledge of what is unknown So the Mystery of the highest degree of Faith must necessarily therefrom begin to work and that in such a way as may be a sealing to what is revealed for manifestation For a let into invisible Species of things cannot but quicken up Faith and make it strong in God by which it may easily yea most naturally act and go forth in mirâ—culous Deeds for confirmation to others of what by a bare Testimony will not be believed in a residue of Spirit For this is also surely reserved which is the sixth step to Sions Glory But before this can be perfected in any one that do look Here for it they must be of a through grown experience in the Life of Revelation These Gifts will not come down by sudden rushing showers as it was in the Apostles times But henceforth they will be Consequents which will follow those who do gradually grow up from the very Birth-day of the Spirit into all the sublime perfections of Holiness as their constitution into a Christ-like Nature For it is the Root of that Heavenly Matter from whence Gifts of this kind do proceed and will in such pure and sanctified Vessels be inherent For they only stand in the Light Councel and Will of the Trinity ready to obey and execute his Will here on Earth as the Angels of the Presence who truly and faithfully do go forth in the Light Power and Force of the seven Spirits whose fortitude it is to secure from all the wrathful conspiracies which are in this evil World Iuly the 20th 1677. This day upon a foregoing Word which opened it self in me as we were met together to breath the Life to each other a superaddition thereof was given me The word was from that of Jesus crying in the great day of the Feast If any man thirst let him come unto me and drink then out of their Bellies shall flow Rivers of Living Waters speaking of the Spirit The Jews Feast being the Feast of Tabernacles was highly at that day solemnised from which the Lord did take an occasion to invite to another manner of Feast presenting himself as the principal Dish to feed upon and Well of Life to draw the Waters of Salvation from It was again revived to me in this word You are come to the festival day of the Spirit Set by it esteem it spare not to take your fill Tell me Oh ye that beloved are what from this Heavenly Table where all variety of Spirit is what is most relishable to your Heavenly Palate Had not I known you to have been in the vehement hunger and thirst after that Food which is all Spirit and Life you should never have drawn near to my Table For to others this kind of Fare has been little understood or tasted of and therefore not desired It is the pure Birth of the Spirit that can only live upon that which is Spirit as none can know the things of God but the Spirit so none can taste God but what is born of God What else did your Lord Jesus live upon during the time of his abiding in the humanity but the Essential Power of the Deity He still drew it in as the Invisible Bread of Life which he had to eat that the World knew not of Now said the Spirit unto me It will be to you according to what you believe or thirst for or after whether for the Milk or the strong Meat of the Spirit For this is called the Feast of the Spirit because it multiplies it self into Corn Wine Oyl Milk Hony Marrow and Fatness There is nothing that can be named for refreshing and strengthning which the Spirit of Jesus doth not afford to the strong in Faith Then again a further Information was given concerning the Ministration of Revelation that though this Mount of Divine Vision was not to be for ever the fixed Rest of such who are under such a dispensation which must be owned as a high and rich Prerogative Yet warning I had this day hereupon still to wait For the Spirit did expresly speak that we were come but to the shallows of that unmeasurable Deep our Feet did but yet stand upon the Golden-sea brim and that we must yet abide a while upou this Chrystalline Stone till launched into the deep ocean of all Manifestation and Knowledge of what is within the Vail Where all things of the Temple Glory are to be seen not as in Metaphors or Figures but in their own express Beings as the heavenly things themselves Then through the Oracle-ear this word did sound to me Ye have not yet known what it is to be wholly contracted into the Spirit that is as if you were without a Body of animal sense and changed into an unmixed Body of Spirit For thus it was with Iohn when he saw and talked with the Alpha and Omega Then the word of Jesus was made good to him as one of them who did not see death till he had seen the Son of Man in Majesty coming in the New Ierusalem Glory But this he could never have beheld if he had not been changed for the time being into a Spirit Which had so penetrated through his gross material Body as that he knew himself only in a Body of Light Therefore he called it the Lord's Day such a
wholly bend the force of their Spirits hereunto may attain to great Wisdom and Knowledge and so bring forth that which may far outshine what is now existent in this Creation For till such deep magical Spirits are born who come to make Projection through internal sight of what is in the first cause of things the Kingdoms of this World with the Potentates thereto belonging will be too hard for you For that Grand Prince that ruleth and hath such command in this lower Sphere hath since the first Age of this World raised ten to one his Magnificent Seat in the Heart of poor deluded man So that they whose lot it is to live in this latter day have greater provocations to overcome as it is truly said the last days will be perillous indeed through the devises of the Evil One who in and by his Agents finds out new inventions to enthral and busie the Mind withal to prevent the taking in the true sense of what was and might be again that blessed state of sinless Liberty For such hath been this Serpents subtilty as to be a Lying Spirit in those who are Teachers to make believe the impossibility hereunto By which he doth keep his Seat of Supremacy universally hereby in the Mind For so long as this is he knows no Power of Soveraingty will outvy his Therefore this Councel of my Lord was expresly given And further this word this Morning was added hereunto That we should drink in this Pure Doctrine from the Spirit who said Be ye found faithful to the interest of your Lord's Kingdom that it may through you while in the World be so manifested in Wisdoms Force and All-spiritual Might through studying out all Divine Arts as hereby you may pluck down the Proud and Lofty from their self exalted Spirit in the Diabolical Might Your true Labour herein shall have such success as you may bring great acclamation and renown to your Lord and Saviour through all Worlds and to your selves Peace and Joy Honour and Dignity because many hereby will flow in into my Great Name When they are convinced that you do bear the Standard of my Spiritual Might in Truth and Righteousness Now therefore be vigilant according to what hath been revealed for the Love that ye have for my Kingdom to appear so in this World as all of the Old Dragons may come absolutely to be shaken and overthrown thereby For whatever ye do think this Prince of Darkness can suppress he will Who is so Mighty in this Low Region till Great Michael doth arise to give Crowns to those who have been long in the War To whom yet no Kingdom hath been given but do wait here in expectation for it and do not start from their Standard Such Oh such be ye that yet ye may be trusted with great Command to magnifie Great Michael in your mean estate September the 10th 1677. THIS Day I was calling my self to an account being sensible of that usual Springing Light that was something shaded and Revelations restrained for the space of a Week occasioned by dispersing thoughts and letting in and busying my Mind upon inferiour things of this Worlds concern Whereby I was made suspicious of a greater loss sustaining than any thing of this World could repay me And although there was nothing which I did engage in but what might seem very just and reasonable to the Eye of all Creatures yet that could not be my justification Because we were under an unknown Nazarite Law that was in special given and therefore accordingly we are bound to obey it who are concerned herein Hereupon I descended down into the deep Region of the Spirit where I did attend to hear what would be answered Which was again through Grace renewed For thus I did the inspeaking word hear Did not I by my Spirit oft declare that it would be hard for any one to keep my charge who had not first cleared all scores of this Worlds Accounts that so ye might have nothing to do but to attend fully your Lord's business who hath called you for such a Principal End out from all this Creation Service Henceforth then cease to be the Servants of Men for since the day of your free assignment of your selves His you are to whom you did your selves bequeath Upon this word I found a great conflict in my self having a great desire to depart and to throw off every weight that would tie and engage my Mind For I did well see an absolute necessity to be alone the Lord's servant and to give my self up in constancy to that new revealed Ministery though I should hereby incur all Creatures enmity For my Lord by a secret voice doth follow me close so that from Loves Charms I can hardly get loose Yea he drives upon us so hard as plainly we might see the Holy Ones design is to make a breach betwixt this World and us as foreseeing that none till then can aptly be for his use and service And verily this is the Cup that is given us to drink of and to leave nothing thereof behind It was what our Lord proposed to the two Sons of Zebedee who were ambitious to be equal in the Kingdom with him Who told them They did not consider what they did ask For if they did come to understand what a Death-cup they must first drink of they would not have climbed so high in their desires Therefore he dealeth plainly with them and shews them both the necessity and possibility thereof but gives the disposal of those Throne-instatements to his Father only It was also at this time spoken in me that we had begun to drink of this Cup wherein the deadly draught was which would crucifie us to this world but as yet we had but drunk the Upper part of it the Portion being so bitter we indeed could never get it down at once Upon which the Spirit giveth this advice Not to let one day pass without imposing upon our selves a draught out hence to take till all be exhausted and drunk out For the Cup is very deep and at the bottom thereof doth lie that which will us from this Principle absolutely unty Therefore let us not herefrom cease to drink each one to whom this Cup is given and no time let us lose for through continual sipping we shall see it lessen and so by degrees the effects thereof upon that which is to die will be felt O who will be so valiant and worthy in this Age as to hold out to the very last as the bottom of this Cup to see Then was it said to me There was at hand immediately for such another Cup wherein was the everlasting Water of Life The operation of which is not expedient yet for to be uttered till some have of the first Cup drunk all O Lord Jesu be thou to us what thou wert when thou didst take the last part of this Cup.
