A
COLLECTION
OF
Certain
Epistles
OF
Divine
Consolation
,
&c.
Dear
Father
and
Mother
,
MY
Indeared
Love
abounds
towards
you
,
and
in
that
which
hath
brought
me
into
true
obedience
to
God
and
Man
,
do
I
salute
you
,
and
am
present
with
you
,
as
you
come
to
be
gathered
thereunto
;
even
into
the
spirit
of
holiness
,
in
which
is
the
unity
of
the
Faithful
,
into
which
Spirit
wait
to
feel
your
growth
,
and
your
obedience
therein
more
and
more
,
which
growth
standeth
not
in
Words
,
but
in
Life
and
in
Power
;
and
wait
to
feel
your
increase
therein
,
and
decrease
in
Words
which
are
out
of
the
Power
of
God
;
many
have
grown
rich
in
Words
,
and
accounted
that
their
growth
without
the
Life
,
and
have
feed
upon
the
Knowledge
more
then
upon
Life
,
and
unto
such
the
Famine
is
to
come
;
therefore
dear
Hearts
,
yea
exceeding
dear
to
me
,
oh
keep
to
the
measure
of
God
in
your
own
Particulars
,
and
be
obedient
to
its
operation
,
that
you
may
come
to
witness
your
translation
into
the
●●rth
Im●ortal
▪
which
trans●ation
standeth
not
in
Words
,
but
in
Life
and
Power
;
therefore
feel
the
operation
of
the
Power
of
God
●●
work
out
and
mortifie
that
which
is
reproveable
by
it
;
oh
,
obedience
to
the
operation
thereof
is
required
by
it
of
the
Creature
;
for
as
it
is
to
work
upon
the
Soul
,
so
it
worketh
not
without
the
Soul
's
yeil●ing
obedience
thereunto
,
so
far
as
to
work
its
translation
,
yet
not
the
Soul's
work
,
but
the
work
of
God
in
and
upon
the
Soul
;
for
though
Christ
is
come
a
Light
into
the
World
,
and
is
the
Salvation
of
God
,
yet
they
that
believe
,
not
in
him
he
is
their
Condemnation
,
and
yet
sufficient
Salvation
to
them
who
believe
in
him
,
and
obey
him
;
for
as
the
Light
manifesteth
Evil
,
yet
if
the
Creature
yeild
not
obedience
thereunto
,
he
cannot
have
●ower
over
the
Evil
;
but
if
he
yeild
obedience
to
the
Light
,
it
gives
him
power
over
Evil
,
yet
not
the
Creatures
Power
,
but
the
Power
of
God
,
which
begetteth
th●
Will
and
●h●
〈◊〉
also
;
therefore
perfect
obedience
to
the
Light
the
Lord
requireth
of
every
one
,
and
daily
to
Watch
and
Wrestle
●gainst
that
which
is
condemnable
by
the
Light
;
for
so
long
as
the
Creature
knowingly
lives
in
that
(
whether
in
Words
●●
Deed●
that
it
seeth
to
be
reprovable
by
the
Light
,
it
cannot
injoy
perfect
peace
with
God
;
for
the
peace
of
God
is
enjoyed
i●
the
Light
;
and
truely
if
that
Condemn
,
surely
the
Lord
doth
not
Justifie
,
though
many
believe
they
are
Justified
in
the
sight
of
God
,
through
Christ
,
although
the
Witness
of
God
le●s
them
see
that
they
are
yet
in
their
Sins
,
and
condemns
them
for
Sin
,
and
this
Faith
(
or
rather
Unbelief
)
which
leads
them
to
believe
that
they
,
nor
none
else
can
be
made
free
from
all
Sin
on
this
side
the
Grave
,
and
yet
they
imagin
that
they
are
free
from
it
in
the
sight
of
God
;
but
beware
of
that
Faith
,
for
it
is
accursed
,
and
is
not
the
true
Faith
which
is
the
gift
of
God
,
which
through
Christ
saveth
from
all
Sin
;
for
that
Faith
admits
of
Sin
,
but
the
Faith
of
Gods
Elect
sets
free
from
all
Sin
;
for
where
the
Wicked
one
hath
seated
this
Faith
or
Perswasion
in
the
Heart
,
it
is
hard
indeed
for
such
a
one
to
come
to
Live
in
the
Life
of
Truth
,
which
is
holy
;
for
as
the
Light
doth
let
the
Soul
see
it
is
in
its
Sins
,
and
brings
Trouble
and
Condemnation
upon
the
Mind
for
Sin
,
and
begets
a
desire
also
in
the
Heart
to
be
freed
from
Sin
,
for
it
feels
it
lie
as
a
weighty
load
upon
its
Conscience
;
behold
even
then
the
Wicked
one
,
who
hath
begot
this
perswasion
in
the
Creature
that
it
cannot
be
freed
from
all
Sin
here
,
though
freed
from
Sin
in
the
sight
of
God
;
and
this
perswasion
causes
the
Creature
to
do
dispite
to
the
Spirit
of
Grace
,
and
strive
to
quench
its
Reproofs
,
and
so
get
at
ease
in
that
cursed
Faith
,
and
in
that
wrong
Believe
,
and
sit
down
short
of
the
Peace
of
God
;
so
that
which
begot
desires
in
the
Creature
to
be
freed
from
Sin
,
comes
to
be
vailed
and
slain
,
and
many
Thousands
are
in
this
State
,
who
are
large
Boasters
,
who
are
boasting
that
they
are
Justified
by
Christ
,
and
that
Christ
hath
done
all
for
them
,
and
if
they
can
believe
it
,
that
is
sufficient
,
and
yet
still
in
their
Sins
.
Now
the
Apostle
Paul
saith
,
If
while
we
seek
to
be
Justi●●ed
by
Christ
,
we
our selves
be
found
Sinners
;
Is
Christ
therefore
the
Minister
of
Sin
?
God
forbid
;
and
he
saith
,
Shall
we
continue
in
Sin
that
Grace
may
abound
?
God
forbid
;
for
how
can
we
who
are
Dead
to
Sin
Live
any
longer
therein
?
and
he
said
,
They
who
are
Justified
by
Faith
,
through
the
Redemption
that
is
in
Christ
Jesus
,
which
Redemption
is
a
redeeming
out
of
Sin
,
and
their
Faith
gave
them
power
over
the
World
,
and
did
not
admit
of
Sin
,
as
the
Professors
Faith
doth
,
who
believe
they
can
never
be
free
from
all
Sin
in
this
Life
.
Oh
,
in
tender
Love
I
beseech
you
to
beware
of
that
Delution
and
Perswasion
of
the
Wicked
one
,
for
it
is
very
dangerous
,
and
a
broad
way
which
the
Creature
is
prone
to
run
into
;
now
there
is
a
great
difference
betwixt
such
who
with
the
Light
seeth
much
Sin
(
which
they
are
addicted
unto
)
yet
to
be
subdued
,
and
it
is
their
sore
Burden
,
and
they
in
the
strength
of
the
Light
wrestle
against
it
,
and
so
feel
it
daily
decrease
;
and
that
Faith
bego●
,
by
which
they
see
and
believe
that
they
shall
be
made
Conquerors
over
all
,
as
they
abide
faithful
to
the
Light
,
which
lets
them
see
Sin
:
I
say
there
is
a
great
difference
betwixt
such
as
are
there
in
that
State
(
travelling
out
of
Sin
,
out
of
Egypt
,
where
the
Bondage
is
,
towards
Sion
,
where
the
Freedom
is
)
and
such
as
are
sate
down
satisfied
,
in
a
false
Confidence
,
and
in
a
wrong
Belief
,
continuing
in
their
Sins
,
and
believe
they
shall
not
be
free
from
it
here
,
but
you
know
otherwise
;
therefore
in
the
Life
of
what
you
know
abide
,
for
truly
it
is
the
Life
that
must
make
alive
,
and
keep
alive
to
God
,
which
Life
is
the
Light
of
men
,
the
true
Light
which
lighteth
every
one
tha●
cometh
into
the
World
,
and
is
the
Salvation
of
God
;
and
therein
wait
and
feel
your
Minds
exercised
in
its
operation
for
this
changeth
the
Mind
,
the
Thoughts
,
the
Affections
and
Desires
;
for
as
they
have
been
Earthly
,
so
they
become
Heavenly
,
and
it
becomes
the
Souls
delight
to
answer
the
end
of
the
Lord
,
and
to
endeavour
to
walk
worthy
of
his
Love
,
and
it
becomes
its
Life
to
do
the
Will
of
God
,
and
to
follow
the
Leadings
of
his
Spirit
,
which
leadeth
out
of
Evil
;
but
before
this
be
witnessed
the
strait
and
narrow
Way
must
be
known
,
felt
and
lived
in
,
and
there
must
be
a
passing
through
the
Fire
,
through
the
Water
,
through
the
one
Baptizing
,
which
baptiseth
into
Death
,
and
so
translateth
into
Life
,
in
which
Life
it
will
become
your
Life
to
do
the
Will
of
God
.
Oh
,
dear
Father
and
Mother
,
keep
,
I
beseech
you
,
to
the
Gift
of
God
in
your
own
particulars
,
and
be
obedient
to
its
Leadings
,
and
therein
watch
diligently
,
continually
,
and
with
it
try
your
Thoughts
,
and
Words
,
and
Intents
,
before
you
bring
them
forth
,
and
if
they
be
reprovable
give
the●
up
to
the
Light
,
the
Fire
,
to
be
consumed
;
dear
Hearts
,
it
is
in
unexpressible
Love
that
I
write
thus
unto
you
;
and
be
very
wary
of
spaking
things
by
contraries
,
which
you
are
addicted
to
,
for
there
is
no
Lye
of
the
Truth
,
and
he
that
abideth
in
the
Truth
is
preserved
out
of
the
Lye
,
he
that
loveth
the
Light
bringeth
his
Deeds
to
the
Light
to
try
them
,
whether
they
be
wrought
in
God
;
so
be
not
forward
to
utter
Words
,
but
feel
the
Light
of
Christ
to
guide
and
lead
you
,
and
bring
your
Thoughts
and
Words
to
it
,
to
try
them
,
whether
you
may
speak
them
yea
or
nay
;
now
if
they
be
reprovable
by
the
Light
,
then
they
are
to
dye
,
and
not
be
brought
forth
,
for
if
they
be
,
this
grieveth
the
Righteous
Spirit
of
God
,
and
breaks
your
Peace
with
the
Lord
,
for
if
his
Witness
Condemn
,
he
doth
not
Justifie
;
so
the
Creature
keeping
low
in
the
pure
Fear
and
Dread
of
the
Lord
,
it
dare
not
do
that
,
whether
in
Thought
,
Word
or
Deed
,
which
it
seeth
to
be
Vain
and
Evil
,
if
it
could
gain
the
whole
World
by
it
;
but
truly
the
Professors
are
out
of
this
Condition
,
though
they
can
talk
of
the
Fear
of
the
Lord
,
and
scarce
one
of
a
〈…〉
is
come
●here
,
into
that
state
,
but
this
is
a
hard
〈…〉
is
able
to
bear
it
?
yet
it
is
a
true
saying
,
though
〈…〉
believe
it
;
oh
,
the
largest
Talkers
,
and
Declarers
,
and
Knowers
,
even
of
the
highest
sort
,
are
farthest
from
the
Life
of
Truth
,
which
is
holy
;
for
truly
such
are
settled
on
their
Lees
,
and
have
been
building
long
,
and
very
high
,
and
have
gathered
much
Riches
,
and
it
is
hard
for
these
to
loose
all
,
and
their
Building
to
fall
,
and
not
one
Stone
to
be
left
upon
another
,
but
all
to
be
thrown
down
;
oh
,
the
Lord
God
of
Compassion
is
a
gathering
many
tender
Hearts
from
amongst
them
,
who
hunger
and
breath
after
him
,
and
is
not
satisfied
with
the
Husks
,
the
Shadows
and
Dead
Forms
,
in
which
they
dwell
,
and
poor
Hearts
,
they
have
been
long
running
from
Mountain
to
Hill
,
and
have
sought
after
the
Lord
,
even
fervently
,
Day
after
Day
,
Year
after
Year
,
and
could
not
find
him
whom
their
Souls
longed
for
;
but
now
such
is
the
Lord
a
gathering
into
his
Fold
where
they
shall
enjoy
their
Shepherd
,
and
their
Souls
shall
not
want
.
So
once
more
do
I
in
tender
Love
direct
you
to
the
Gift
of
God
in
your
own
particulars
,
and
therein
wait
upon
the
Lord
for
Power
,
from
the
Lord
,
over
that
which
is
contrary
to
the
Lord
,
and
condemnable
by
his
Light
in
your
own
Hearts
;
and
keep
in
the
fewness
of
Words
,
for
too
many
Words
becometh
not
those
who
professeth
Godliness
;
but
let
your
Words
be
few
,
and
let
them
savour
of
the
Grace
of
God
,
which
leadeth
into
a
Meek
,
Sober
,
Modest
,
Chast
Lif●
,
that
so
your
upright
sober
Conversation
may
preach
Righteousness
,
even
to
the
convincing
of
them
who
have
been
as
Teachers
over
you
,
whom
ye
will
come
to
see
,
as
you
keep
to
the
measure
of
God
,
and
know
them
to
be
a
People
whose
Minds
are
at
Liberty
,
and
are
at
case
in
the
Flesh
,
and
know
not
a
Stay
to
their
Minds
,
a
Stop
to
their
Thoughts
,
a
Bridle
to
their
Tongues
,
which
if
they
be
not
come
to
know
,
feel
and
abide
therein
,
let
their
Knowledge
never
so
large
,
their
Declarations
never
so
high
,
their
Words
never
so
deep
,
yea
and
true
also
;
yet
I
say
,
and
my
saying
is
true
,
though
hard
to
many
to
bear
(
that
if
such
come
not
,
and
keep
not
to
that
which
is
to
be
a
Stay
to
the
Mind
,
a
Stop
to
their
Thoughts
,
a
Brible
to
their
Tongues
,
a
Lanthorn
to
their
F●●●
,
a
Light
●o
their
Steps
)
their
Knowledge
,
their
Declarations
,
their
Works
and
their
Suffering
,
it
is
all
in
vain
;
and
a
Babe
of
the
Heavenly
Birth
sees
and
comprehends
them
,
and
their
large
Coverings
are
to
narrow
to
hide
them
from
their
Eye
:
Well
,
into
the
hand
of
the
Lord
do
I
commit
you
,
for
to
come
to
be
gathered
into
,
and
preserved
in
the
pure
Fear
of
God
,
Watchful
and
Diligent
in
the
Light
,
and
to
War
and
Wrestle
in
the
strength
of
it
,
against
that
which
you
see
is
to
be
Mortified
;
so
be
willing
to
pass
through
the
strait
Gate
,
into
the
narrow
Way
to
walk
,
which
few
findeth
,
and
are
made
willing
to
walk
therein
;
But
the
First
shall
be
Last
,
and
the
Last
First
,
for
many
are
Called
,
and
but
few
Chosen
.
And
dear
Ones
,
one
thing
more
I
have
to
say
unto
you
,
beware
and
take
heed
of
Condemning
one
another
for
doing
that
Evil
which
you
see
your selves
are
addicted
unto
,
but
first
see
it
Subdued
and
Mortified
in
your selves
,
whether
it
be
in
Word
or
Action
,
before
you
Condemn
others
for
it
,
though
they
be
Prophane
People
;
and
when
you
spake
a
Word
of
Reproof
to
any
,
beware
of
doing
it
in
a
light
Frothy
way
,
as
many
do
,
even
in
the
light
Airy
Spirit
,
which
bringeth
forth
the
same
things
in
themselves
;
but
let
it
be
done
in
the
Sober
,
Solled
,
Seasoned
,
Savoury
,
Holy
Spirit
of
the
Lord
God
,
that
it
may
reach
to
the
Witness
of
God
in
them
unto
whom
you
speak
,
and
then
is
it
profitable
;
so
the
Lord
God
Almighty
,
Infinite
and
Wise
,
preserve
me
,
and
you
,
and
all
his
little
Ones
,
in
his
holy
Awe
and
Dread
,
and
therein
to
pass
the
time
of
our
Pilgrimag●
here
in
Fear
and
Trembling
,
Farwell

A
tender
and
unfained
Salutation
of
Love
and
Good-will
to
Professors
,
&c.
THe
Lord
God
Almighty
,
hath
,
and
is
a
looking
down
upon
the
Sons
and
Daughters
of
Men
;
and
hath
,
and
doth
behold
many
of
them
,
even

poor
scattered
Sheep
without
a
Shepherd

wandering
as
in
the
Desarts
and
waste
howling
Wilderness
,
wandering
as
upon
the
barren
Mountains
,
and
dry
Heaths
;
hungry
and
thirsty
,
their
souls
unsatisfied
,
seeking
diligently
for
food
upon

Mountains

running
from
Mountain

satisfy
their

broken
Cistern
to
another

cannot
find
one
drop
of
water
that
will
truly
refresh
their

Souls

God
amongst

the
Substance
among

after

their

where
the
Lord
God
(
the
good
Shepherd
of
Israel
)
feeds
his
Sheep
and
Lambs
,
and
where
they
lie
down
in
quietness
and
rest
,
free
from

fear
of
Evil.
And
this
the
Lord
God
of
pity
hath
seen
,
and
in
his
Infinite
tender
bowels
,
hath
been
(
and
now
is

moved
with
yearnings
of
pity

compassion
towards

Almighty

hath

is
lifting
up
an
Ensign
for
the
Nations

hath
,

will
assemble
the
out-casts
of
Jacob
,
and
the
dispersed
Judah
,
from
the
four
corners
of
the

hath
,

will
return
the
Captivity
of

and
then
Jacob
shall
be
glad
,

Israel
shall
rejoyce
in
him

This
is
he
whom
the
Lord
giveth
for
a
Covenant
of
the
people
,
and
for
a
light
of
the
Gentiles
,
to
be
his
Salvation
to
the
ends
of

Earth
,
to
open
the

to
unstop
the

to
cause
the
tongue
of
the
Dumb
to
sing
,

to
leap
as
an
Heart

to
cause
water
to
come
forth
of
the
Desert

streams
in
the
Wilderness
;
the
parched
ground
to
become
a
pool

make
the
Wilderness

solitary
place
glad

as
a
Rose

This

who
maketh
all

and
Ah
dear
People
!
this
is
the
Salvation
of
God
whom
I
declare
of
,
and
Salvation
is
not
to
be
had
in
another
besides
him
,
who
is
the
Immortal
word
He
came
unto
his
own
,
and
his
own
received
him
not
,
but
unto
them
that
received
him
,
he
gave
power
to
become
the
Sons
of
God
.
Who
had
a
body
prepared
him
,
in
which
he
suffered
the
Will
of
him
that
sent
him
;
who
was
born
of
the
Virgin
Mary
,
whom
King
Herod
sought
to
destroy
,
who
was
circumcised
the
eighth
day
,
and
likewise
baptised
by
John
the
Baptist
,
who
likewise
eat
the
Passeover
with
his
Disciples
,
(
for
he
came
to
fulfil
all
Righteousness
)
who
was
betrayed
by
Judas
,
who
was
judged
to
die
by
Ponrius
Pilate
,
who
was
Crucified
without
the
Gates
of
Jerusalem
,
who
was
laid
in
a
Sepulcher
,
who
rose
again
the
third
day
according
to
the
Scriptures
,
who
ascended
up
into
Heaven
,
and
sitteth
at
the
Right
hand
of
God
who
is
glorified
with
the
same
Glory
that
he
had
with
the
Father
before
the
world
began
;
who
came
again
unto
his
Disciples
according
to
his
promise
;
who
said
unto
them
,
I
will
not
leave
you
comfortless
,
I
will
come
to
you
:
I
will
send
you
a
Comforter
that
shall
abide
with
you
for
ever
,
even
the
Spirit
of
Truth
.
I
am
the
Truth
(
saith
Christ
)
whom
the
world
cannot
receive
,
because
it
seeth
him
not
,
neither
knoweth
him
;
but
you
know
him
,
for
he
dwelleth
with
you
,
and
shall
be
(
Mark
)
in
you
;
yet
a
little
while
and
the
world
sees
me
no
more
:
(
Mark
this
)
you
who
are
so
much
gazing
and
looking
for
his
coming
without
,
(
but
still
fail
of
your
expectation
)
that
you
know
not
his
coming
within
you
to
be
a
Comforter
.
But
you
see
me
,
and
because
I
live
you
shall
live
also
,
(
saith
Christ
to
his
Disciples
)
and
in
that
day
you
shall
know
that
I
am
in
the
Father
,
and
you
in
me
,
and
I
(
Mark
)
in

;
and
he
the
Spirit
of
Truth
,
shall
lead
you
into
all
Truth
,
and
shall
teach
you
all
things
,
and
shall
shew
you
all
things
to
come
,
and
bring
all
things
to
your
remembrance
that
I
have
said
unto
you
,
and
shall
reprove
the
world
of
Sin
,
of
Righteousness
,
and
of
Judgement
:
And
his
Disciples
according
to
his
He
dewlleth
with
you
,
and
shall
be
in
●ou
;
and
this
is
the
immortal
Word
which
was
in
the
beginning
which
Paul
(
who
witnessed
Christ
the
Son
of
God
revealed
in
him
,
and
was
None
should
need
to
ascend
,
that
is
,
to
bring
Christ
down
from
above
,
or
to
descend
,
that
is
,
to
bring
Christ
from
beneath

&c.
but
the
word
(
to

Christ
is
nigh
thee
in
the
heart
,
and
in
the
mouth
,
to
be
obeyed
and
done
:
and
this
is
the
Word
of
Faith
that
Paul
preached
nigh
in
the
heart
,
Even
Christ
in
them
●he
living
hope
,
that
was
as
an
Anchor
to
their
Souls
,
sure
and
stedfast
)
the
hope
of
Glory
.
And
Paul
exhorted
the
Corinthians
to
examine
themselves
,
and
to
prove
themselves
whether
they
were
in
the
Faith
;
whether
they
knew
not
Christ
to
be
in
Let
that
remain
in
you
,
(
to
wit
,
The
word
which
was
in
the
beginning
)
which
you
have
heard
from
the
beginning
,
and
if
it
shall
remain
in
you
,
ye
shall
continue
in
the
Son
and
in
the
Father
:
and
tells
them
,
That
they
should
not
need
that
any
man
should
teach
them
,
but
as
the
anoynting
which
they
had
received
of
God
abiding
in
them
,
should
teach
them
,
which
was
the
Truth
,
(
to
wit
)
Christ
the
Truth
in
them
,
the
anoynted
,
the
ano●nting
:
And
as
he
had
,
and
did
teach
them
,
so
they
were
to
abide
in
him
;
so
they
knew
Christ
in
them
,
&
witnessed
the
Power
of
God
within
,
the
Truth
wit●i●
,
the
Word
nigh
in
their
hearts
,
the
Spirit
of
God
in
their
inward
parts
,
by
which
they
were
led
,
guided
,
taught
an●
instructed
:
For
so
many
as
are
the
Sons
of
God
,
(
saith
Paul
)
are
led
by
the
Spirit
of
God
;
and
he
that
hath
not
the
Spirit
of
Christ
is
none
of
his
:
and
this
gave
them
an
understanding
in
the
things
of
God
,
even
the
Spirit
of
God
;
For
no
man
knows
the
things
of
God
,
[
saith
Paul
]
but
by
the
Spirit
●f
God
,
through
which
he
was
made
anable
Minister
of
the
New
Testament
,
not
of
the
Letter
,
but
of
the
Spirit
which
giveth
life
.
And
he
Preached
the
everlasting
Gospel
,
Christ
the
Power
of
God
,
the
Word
nigh
in
the
heart
,
and
said
,
If
our
Gospel
be
hid
,
it
is
hid
from
them
that
are
lost
,
in
whom
,
[
Mark
]
in
whom
the
God
of
the
world
[
the
Prince
of
the
power
of
the
Air
,
that
wicked
spirit
,
that
worketh
in
the
hearts
of
the
children
of
disobedience
]
hath
blinded
their
minds
,
lest
the
light
of
the
glorious
Gospel
[
Christ
Jesus
]
should
shine
in
,
and
unto
them
:
But
God
,
who
commandeth
light
to
shine
out
of
darkness
,
hath
shined
[
Mark
]
in
our
hearts
,
to
give
us
the
knowledge
of
the
Glory
of
God
in
the
face
of
Jesus
;
and
we
have
this
treasure
in
the
Earthen
vessel
,
that
the
glory
may
be
of
God
,
and
not
of
us
:
so
the
Saints
Preached
up
Christ
[
the
Word
of
Life
,
the
Light
,
the
Truth
]
within
,
and
That
which
is
is
to
be
known
of
God
,
is
manifest
in
them
:
and
Paul
says
,
That
the
manifestation
of
the
Spirit
,
is
given
to
every
man
to
profit
withall
;
and
the
free
Grace
of
God
,
saith
he
[
Mark
]
that
bringeth
Salvation
,
hath
appeared
to
all
men
,
teaching
us
,
that
we
denying
ungodliness
and
worldly
lusts
,
should
live
soberly
,
righteously
,
and
godly
,
in
this
present
world
.
And
the
Saints
,
they
witnessed
their
reconciliation
,
and
were
born
again
;
they
felt
and
knew
that
in
themselves
,
of
which
they
were
born
again

Christ
Ah

my

for
your
sakes
dear
people

doth
my
Soul
travel
in
the
womb
of
Supplication

that
you
might
come
to
enjoy
that
which
you

to

and
for
your

this

in
tender

unfeigned

your

And
dear

you
that
have
true
desires
in
you
after
the
Lord

been
seeking
of
him
,
where
you
cannot
find
him

and
hath
been
running
from
Mountain
to

and
from
Hill
to
Mountain

from
one
broken
Cistern
to
another

from
one
dead
Form
to
another

but
still
are
unsatisfied

and
are
sensible
,
that
you

notwithstanding
your
long
profession
and
confession
of
God
and
Christ
in
words
,
and
notwithstanding
your
practicing
some
things

you
read
of

which
the
Saints

daily

Oh
,
dear
people

retire

retire

your
minds
inward

you
who
have
been
seeking
a
God
a
far
off
,
and
hunting
after
the
Lord
without
,
retire
to
within
,
and
wait
to
know
the
Lord
God
near
you
,
to
know
his
pure
Truth
in
your
inward
parts
,
his
pure
Spirit
in
you
,
to
lead
and
guide
you
,
to
teach
and
instruct
you
;
for
God
is
a
Spirit
,
and
his
teachings
are
spiritual
;
he
must
be
known
in
Spirit
,
worshipped
in
Spirit
and
in
As
lo
here
,
and
lo
there
,
but
in
the
Spirit
is
the
Lord
God
known
and
worshipped
aright
,
by
them
who
are
born
of
the
Spirit
:
And
so
the
spiritualized
people
,
who
are
born
o●
the
Spirit
,
and
lives
in
the
Spirit
,
and
are
taught
and
led
by
the
Spirit
of
Truth

these
are
the
peculiar
people
who
Worship
the
God
of
Truth
[
who
is
a
Spirit
]
in
the
Spirit
and
in
the
Truth
;
and
these
are
acceptable
Worshippers
with
the
Lord
,
who
own
no
Worship
but
his
own
which
he
teacheth
his
people
by
his
Spirit
;
and
they
that
is
ignorant
of
the
Spirit
of
God
,
they
are
ignorant
of
the
true
Worship
of
God
which
is
in
the
Spirit
;
and
although
such
may
seem
to
Worship
God
,
yet
their
Worship
is
not
of

nor
accepted
with

dear
People

who
have
desires
in
you

Lord

you

my
bowels

where
ever
you
are
scattered
among
the
many

and
heaps

this
is
a
tender
invitation
unto
you
that
have
been
spending
your
mony
for
that
which
is
not
bread
,
and
your
labour
for
that
which
hath
not

satisfied
your
Souls

still
you
are

thirsty
for
want
of
drink
,
and
an
hungry
for
want
of
food

Oh
,
dear
people
!
retire
inward
,
retire
inward
,
hunt
no
longer
abroad
,
run
no
longer
from
one
broken
Cistern
to
another
;
wait
no
longer
at
the
Wells
that
men
have
digged
,
draw
no
longer
at
them
,
for
still
you
thirst
again
.
But
oh
!
retire
to
within
,
tur●
your
minds
inward
,
and
wait
to
find
and
feel
that
in
you
,
which
you
so
carefully
(
with
sorrow
)
hath
been
seeking
without
you
;
even
to
know
Jacob's
Well
in
you
,
which
hath
been
dammed
up
with
Earth
by
the
uncircumcised
,
whilest
you
have
been
hunting
abroad
;
therefore
turn
your
minds
inward
to
feel
the
gift
that
Christ
gives
;
the
Water
that
he
gives
,
saith
Christ
to
the
Woman
of
Samaria
,
The
water
which
I
will
give
thee
,
shall
[
Mark
]
be
in
thee
a
Well
of
water
springing
up
unto
Eternal
life
.
So
the
Water
that
Christ
gives
,
it
's
within
;
therefore
turn
inward
to
his
pure
gift
in
your
own
Hearts
,
to
his
pure
Light
in
your
own
Consciences
,
for
that
comes
from
him
,
and
leads
unto
him
(
them
that
do
it
love
,
follow
,
and
obey
)
the
Fountain
of
living
Water
,
who
satisfieth
the
thirst
of
the
thirsty
,
and
feedeth
the
hungry
with
good
things
.
Therefore
retire
inward
in
your
minds
,
and
come
unto
him
,
and
learn
of
him
who
is
meek
and
low
in
Christ
in
you
,
except
ye
be
Reprobates
:
hearken
diligently
unto
him
,
and
eat
ye
that
which
is
good
,
(
no
longer
feed
upon
the
husks
)
and
let
your
souls
delight
themselves
in
fatness
:
come
unto
him
,
encline
your
ear
,
hear
and
your
Soul
shall
live
,
and
enter
into
Covenant
with
him
who
will
be
your
God
,
and
you
shall
be
his
people
.
And
so
,
dear
people
,
it
is
not
enough
for
any
to
have
a
profession
,
and
a
talk
of
God
and
Christ
in
words
,
without
the
enjoyment
and
possession
of
him
:
It
is
not
enough
to
confess
and
believe
that
Christ
died
at
Jerusalem
for
sinners
,
and
he
hath
done
all
for
you
,
&c.
for
the
drunkard
and
the
swearer
will
say
as
much
as
this
,
and
make
a
confession
of
Christ
in
words
as
many
professors
do
,
who
say
,
They
are
justified
by
Christ
,
and
he
hath
done
all
for
them
;
and
yet
they
are
still
in
their
sins
,
in
the
pride
,
covetousness
,
vanity
,
pomp
,
and
vain
glory
of
the
world
,
in
it's
vain
customs
,
inventions
,
and
traditions
,
seeking
and
loving
it's
honour
and
respect
,
seeking
and
loving
the
praise
of
men
more
then
the
praise
of
God
.
But
,
dear
people
,
it
is
not
enough
to
confess
Christ
without
,
and
say
you
believe
in
him
,
&c.
except
you
come
to
know
him
made
manifest
in
you
to
destroy
the
works
of
the
Devil
;
for
your
professing
and
confessing
of
Christ
dying
at
Jerusalem
,
&c.
doth
not
cleanse
your
Hearts
,
nor
sanctifie
your
Souls
,
nor
purge
your
Consciences
from
dead
works
,
to
serve
the
living
God
in
newness
of
life
;
but
still
you
see
you
are
Bond-slaves
unto
sin
and
corruption
,
and
led
captive
with
the
lusts
and
desires
of
your
own
hearts
;
and
it
will
be
so
dear
people
,
until
you
turn
your
minds
inward
,
to
the
pur●
light
of
Christ
in
you
,
that
doth
discover
the
sin
and
corruption
of
your
own
hearts
;
and
as
you
come
to
believe
in
that
,
to
love
and
follow
that
,
you
will
come
to
feel
and
find
the
working
our
of
the
old
leaven
of
sin
,
iniquity
and
corruption
,
and
working
you
into
its
nature
,
and
so
come
to
see
,
and
feel
,
and
witness
,
not
only
atalk
of
it
,
but
your
Regeneration
wrought
by
Christ
in
you
,
the
Immortal
Word
,
to
be
bor●
again
of
it
,
the
Seed
incorruptible
,
which
must
be
known
within
,
to
bruise
the
Serpents
head
,
the
god
of
the
world
,
the
wicked
spirit
that
leads
man
into
sin
,
which
hath
been
exalted
in
the
heart
of
man
,
and
hath
been
Lord
,
Head
,
and
King
there
;
and
the
holy
Seed
,
the
pure
life
,
that
hath
suffered
,
that
hath
been
oppressed
,
even
as
a
Cart
is
oppressed
with
sheaves
,
that
hath
been
pierced
,
wounded
and
crucified
,
the
Just
hath
suffered
for
the
Unjust
;
he
hath
long
been
a
man
of
sorrows
,
and
largely
acquainted
with
grief
;
he
hath
been
smitten
,
and
thou
hast
esteemed
him
not
;
but
oh
!
he
hath
been
wounded
for
,
and
by
thy
transgressions
;
and
bruised
by
,
and
for
thy
iniquities
;
he
hath
born
thy
iniquity
,
whilst
thou
like
a
sheep
hast
gone
astray
,
and
followed
thy
own
way
.
But
oh
!
now
return
unto
the
good
Shepherd
,
who
lays
down
his
life
for
his
Sheep
,
and
gathereth
the
scattered
into
the
fold
of
Rest
,
where
he
feeds
them
,
and
causeth
them
to
lie
down
in
the
fresh
Pastures
of
life
,
where
none
can
make
them
afraid
;
and
feed
,
and
sup
with
him
,
who
is
their
daily
Bread
,
their
Life
,
their
Rest
,
their
Joy
and
Delight
.
So
dear
poople
,
whose
desires
are
after
the
Lord
,
but
are
she
King
for
Salvation
,
and
after
a
God
afar
off
,
I
beseech
you
to
return
inward
(
because
I
fervently
desire
that
your
Souls
might
come
to
taste
of
the
love
and
sweet
peace
of
my
God
,
which
is
that
which
would
satisfie
your
Souls
)
and
to
take
heed
to
that
in
your
hearts
,
which
as
light
shineth
in
a
dark
place
,
discovering
unto
you
the
deeds
of
darkness
,
and
the
works
of
the
night
to
be
evil
;
and
fear
not
that
It
will
deceive
ye
,
for
it
is
the
sure
word
of
Prophecy
,
We
Know
that
God
spake
by
Moses
,
but
as
for
this
fellow
.
we
know
not
whence
he
is
;
he
is
a
Gluttoner
,
a
Wine-bibber
,
a
friend
to
Publicans
and
Sinners
;
he
through
Beelzebub
the
Prince
of
Devils
doth
cast
out
Devils
,
&c
,
And
truly
I
may
say
,
(
not
out
of
a
prejudiced
mind
of
Enmity
towards
any
,
for
my
Soul
bears
love
and
good-will
towards
all
men
)
that
it
is
(
as
it
were
)
the
same
now
with
many
of
the
Professors
in
this
age
,
who
(
as
the
Jews
made
a
large
boast
and
profession
of
Moses
,
the
Law
,
and
the
Prophets
,
and
hated
him
the
life
of
them
)
doth
make
a
large
boast
of
Christ
in
words
,
and
of
his
dying
at
Jerusalem
,
(
which
I
believe
he
did
,
according
as
the
Scripture
testifie
)
and
that
he
hath
done
all
for
them
,
and
if
they
can
but
believe
it
,
that
is
enough
,
&c.
And
yet
whilest
they
are
thus
professing
him
in
words
,
behold
many
of
them
are
enemies
to
his
Life
,
and
so
enemies
to
him
whom
they
boast
of
,
who
is
the
Word
that
was
in
the
beginning
,
in
whom
was
life
,
and
his
life
is
the
light
of
men
:
The
true
light
,
saith
John
,
that
lighteth
every
man
that
cometh
into
the
world
;
which
the
Professors
say
is
a
natural
light
;
that
which
convinceth
wicked
men
of
sin
in
their
own
hearts
,
and
judgeth
them
for
evil
doing
;
it
is
a
natural
light
say
the
Professors
,
and
so
call
the
life
of
the
Word
,
which
is
the
light
of
men
natural
;
it
's
a
natural
conscience
say
some
,
it
's
an
insufficient
light
,
it
's
a
common
grace
,
&c.
so
common
it
is
indeed
,
that
(
as
Paul
says
)
it
hath
appeared
unto
all
men
,
even
that
grace
that
brings
Salvation
:
nay
,
some
blasphemously
will
presume
to
say
,
it
's
a
spirit
of
delusion
,
a
spirit
of
errour
;
and
these
are
under
the
wo
,
who
call
the
Truth
errour
,
and
the
Light
Thou
,
whoever
thou
art
,
and
whatever
by
men
thou
art
accounted
of
,
that
doth
make
a
large
profession
of
God
,
Christ
,
and
the
Scriptures
of
Truth
in
words
,
and
doth
hate
,
and
speak
evil
of
the
Light
,
the
true
Light
,
that
lighteth
every
man
that
cometh
into
the
world
,
thou
art
a
hater
of
God
and
of
Christ
,
and
art
of
Antichrist
,
against
Christ
;
although
thou
professest
him
in
words
,
and
sayst
thou
art
saved
by
him
,
and
justified
by
him
,
&c.
yet
if
thou
hatest
his
light
in
thy
own
Conscience
,
which
doth
check
thee
for
evil
doing
,
and
prick
thee
for
thy
sins
in
secret
,
thou
art
in
enmity
to
him
,
and
condemned
by
the
Light
,
and
not
justified
;
and
thy
confession
of
Christ
in
words
will
not
save
thee
from
his
Righteous
Condemnation
,
whilst
thou
hatest
his
pure
light
in
thy
Conscience
,
and
thy
profession
is
for
the
fire
,
and
unto
the
Light
thou
must
come
before
thou
canst
find
true
peace
with
the
Lord
God
.
Yea
,
whatever
thou
art
,
who
art
climed
,
and
a
climing
up
in
thy
Imaginations
,
and
a
soaring
up
aloft
with
the
god
of
the
world
,
(
the
Prince
of
the
power
of
the
Air
)
above
the
Light
(
the
Door
into
the
fold
)
striving
to
enter
into
the
fold
,
and
not
by
the
Door
,
to
wit
)
the
Light
,
thou
art
the
Thief
So
heed
not
(
dear
people
,
you
who
have
any
desire
in
you
after
the
Lord
)
what
this
man
,
or
the
other
,
saith
of
the
Light
;
but
love
the
Light
,
and
take
heed
unto
it
,
for
that
which
judges
and
condems
sin
in
you
,
which
So
coming
to
the
Light
,
Christ
Jesus
,
you
come
to
the
Substance
,
to
him
,
in
whom
the
Figures
,
Types
,
and
Shaddows
end
in
,
and
so
come
to
witness
him
in
you
,
who
fulfils
all
Righteousness
;
he
who
is
the
end
of
the
Law
for
●ighteousness
sake
,
unto
them
that
believe
in
him
;
and
to
be
Circumcised
in
him
,
with
the
Circumcision
I
must
decrease
,
but
he
must
increase
.
I
indeed
baptise
you
with
water
,
but
he
(
Christ
Jesus
,
who
was
before
me
)
shall
baptise
you
with
the
Holy
Ghost
and
with
Fire
;
whose
fan
is
in
his
hand
,
and
he
shall
throughly
purge
his
floor
;
the
Wheat
he
shall
gather
into
his
Garner
,
but
the
chaff
he
will
burn
up
with
unquenchable
fire
.
So
the
outward
water
was
but
a
type
,
the
outward
washing
a
type
of
the
inward
washing
,
and
inward
cleansing
,
and
inward
purging
,
and
purifying
by
the
Water
of
Life
,
or
the
Blood
of
Jesus
,
that
cleanseth
from
all
sin
,
which
is
felt
thus
to
work
in
them
who
believe
in
the
Light
,
and
walk
in
the
Light
;
and
they
come
to
know
that
begotten
in
them
,
that
feeds
upon
the
flesh
of
Christ
,
which
is
the
living
Bread
,
upon
which
the
living
Soul
seeds
,
and
is
the
Substance
which
the
Bread
and
Wine
outward
did
figure
out
;
which
the
Manna
(
that
God
gave
the
Israel
of
old
in
the
Wilderness
)
was
a
pure
type
of
the
heavenly
Manna
,
the
living
Bread
,
which
the
birth
that
is
born
of
God
feeds
upon
,
and
lives
thereby
,
and
grows
up
into
Eternal
life
.
The
day
of
gathering
is
come
,
wherein
the
Lord
God
of
everlasting
bowels
of
Compassion
is
a
gathering
the
despersed
,
and
seeking
that
which
was
lost
,
and
bringing
back
that
which
was
driven
away
,
and
healing
that
The
way
of
the
Lord
is
pure
and
Righteous
,
and
unchangable
;
I
am
the
Way
,
the
Truth
,
and
the
Life
,
saith
Christ
,
the
immortal
Word
,
which
(
saith
Paul
)
is
nigh
in
the
heart
,
to
be
obeyed
and
done
:
This
is
he
,
the
Light
,
the
Salvation
of
God
,
the
true
Light
,
that
lighteth
every
man
that
commeth
into
the
world
;
who
saith
,
None
can
come
unto
the
Father
,
but
by
me
:
I
am
come
a
Light
into
the
world
,
(
saith
Christ
)
that
whosoever
believe
in
me
shall
not
abide
in
darkness
,
but
shall
have
the
light
of
life
.
Therefore
,
dear
people
love
the
Light
,
and
believe
in
the
Light
,
while
ye
have
the
Light
,
that
so
you
may
become
children
of
the
Light
,
and
become
heirs
of
an
Inheritance
incorruptible
,
that
will
never
fade
away
:
There
is
no
obtaining
the
Crown
but
through
the
Cross
,
and
this
you
will
come
to
know
,
who
come
to
love
the
Light
,
and
to
be
taught
of
him
,
and
to
learn
of
him
who
is
meek
and
low
in
heart
,
He
that
will
be
my
Disciple
,
saith
Christ
,
must
deny
himself
,
and
take
up
his
dayly
Cross
and
follow
me
.
This
you
will
come
to
feel
and
witness
,
if
you
be
followers
of
the
Light
,
a
dayly
denying
of
self
you
will
know
,
a
denying
of
your
own
wills
,
your
own
desires
,
your
own
thoughts
,
your
own
affections
,
your
own
words
and
works
,
your
own
wisdom
and
righteousness
,
and
a
daily
taking
up
the
Cross
,
an
hourly
living
in
the
Cross
;
through
which
you
must
come
to
be
crucified
to
the
World
,
its
Vanity
,
its
Pomp
,
Pastime
and
Pleasures
,
Sins
and
Iniquities
,
vain
Words
,
So
,
dear
people
,
who
are
seeking
,
and
desiring
after
the
Lord
God
,
to
find
peace
and
comfort
to
your
souls
,
this
I
leave
with
you
;
flee
not
from
that
which
doth
judg
you
in
your
own
hearts
for
sin
and
evil
,
and
bring
trouble
upon
you
,
and
sorrow
upon
you
,
and
woundeth
and
pierceth
you
in
secret
,
because
of
Transgression
:
I
say
,
love
that
flee
not
from
it
;
for
oh
dear
people
!
how
many
is
there
,
that
when
they
have
been
judged
by
Gods
pure
light
in
their
hearts
for
their
sins
,
when
trouble
,
and
sorrow
,
and
distress
,
hath
seized
on
them
,
because
of
their
sins
,
which
Gods
Witness
hath
set
in
order
before
their
eyes
;
then
have
they
run
unto
vain
helps
,
and
run
unto
man
for
help
,
even
to
those
that
could
not
speak
a
word
in
season
to
them
,
but
have
daubed
them
up
with
untempered
Morter
,
and
have
endeavored
to
heal
their
wound
deceitfully
,
and
have
preached
Peace
to
that
which
is
for
judgment
,
and
so
thereby
they
have
gotten
some
kind
of
satisfaction
for
a
time
,
until
the
Lord
wounded
them
again
with
the
Sword
of
his
Righteous
Judgments
,
&
then
their
seeming
rest
fled
away
as
smack
before
the
wind
,
and
sorrow
&
trouble
took
hold
on
them
again
,
as
pain
on
a
Woman
in
travel
;
and
then
they
have
run
again
unto
that
which
could
not
remove
the
very
cause
of
their
trouble
and
sorrow
;
they
have
run
to
the
Scriptures
of
Truth
,
and
therein
have
found
a
promise
,
and
this
they
have
applied
to
themselves
,
for
to
get
peace
and
rest
thereby
;
when
,
alas
poor
hearts
,
they
have
not
been
in
that
state
and
condition
which
that
promise
(
which
they
applied
to
themselves
)
was
unto
,
and
so
not
for
them
;
and
then
they
have
read
what
the
Saints
once
did
and
performed
,
and
they
set
themselves
to
do
the
like
,
and
to
imitate
them
;
and
so
hereby
for
a
time
they
have
gotten
some
satisfaction
,
some
kind
of
rest
and
peace
,
until
the
Lord
God
did
thunder
again
with
Dread
,
and
uttered
his
Voice
with
Terror
,
which
caused
the
Earth
to
tremble
,
and
their
habitation
to
fall
,
and
then
dissolation
came
upon
them
again
,
and
their
Fig-leave
garment
came
to
be
rent
,
and
their
wound
greater
then
ever
it
was
before
;
and
thus
they
have
run
from
Mountain
to
Hill
,
from
one
Physitian
to
another
for
healing
,
but
they
were
unto
them
as
Physitians
of
no
value
;
for
none
of
them
could
rightly
heal
their
wounds
,
until
at
last
,
they
said
in
their
hearts
,
We
will
seek
no
more
unto
man
,
for
vain
is
the
help
of
man
:
But
we
will
return
unto
the
Lord
God
who
hath
wounded
us
,
and
he
will
heal
us
;
who
hath
broken
us
in
peices
,
and
he
will
bind
us
up
;
and
so
returning
to
the
light
of
Christ
Jesus
in
their
own
hearts
,
(
with
which
the
Lord
hath
wounded
them
for
their
sins
,
and
brought
trouble
and
sorrow
upon
them
for
their
iniquities
,
waiting
therein
in
patience
upon
the
Lord
God
,
in
the
way
of
his
Righteous
Judgments
,
which
was
set
up
in
their
hearts
)
they
came
to
feel
,
through
their
believing
in
the
Light
,
and
loving
the
Light
by
which
they
were
wounded
for
sin
,
the
cause
of
their
sorrow
,
and
trouble
and
wounds
,
taken
away
by
the
Blood
of
Jesus
,
which
is
his
life
,
which
they
came
to
feel
i●
them
,
cleansing
of
them
from
their
sins
,
and
washing
of
them
away
;
and
so
the
very
cause
of
their
wound
being
taken
away
,
and
the
corruption
purged
out
;
then
he
,
the
tender
,
pitiful
compassionate
God
of
Mercy
,
that
in
mercy
towards
them
had
wounded
them
,
healed
them
with
the
sweet
Oyl
of
joy
,
peace
,
and
gladness
;
and
now
these
that
were
mourners
do
rejoyce
;
and
they
that
were
heavy
hearted
are
made
glad
;
and
beauty
is
given
them
for
ashes
,
and
the
oyl
of
joy
for
mourning
;
the
garment
of
praise
,
for
the
spirit
of
heaviness
;
and
are
become
Trees
of
Righteousness
,
the
Lords
own
planting
,
bringing
forth
fruit
to
his
glory
and
praise
,
who
hath
thus
set
them
free
from
their
sorrow
and
trouble
.
These
can
say
,
Good
it
is
to
wait
upon
the
Lord
God
in
the
way
of
his
Judgments
.
Lo
,
this
is
the
Lord
whom
we
have
waited
for
,
this
is
our
God
,
we
have
waited
for
him
;
come
let
us
rejoyce
in
his
Salvation
wherewith
he
hath
saved
us
;
he
hath
redeemed
us
out
of
the
horrible
Pit
,
out
of
the
miry
clay
hath
he
brought
us
,
and
set
our
feet
upon
a
Rock
,
and
doth
establish
our
goings
;
who
filleth
our
Souls
with
the
fatness
of
his
house
,
and
causeth
us
to
drink
of
the
River
of
his
Pleasure
,
and
to
suck
and
be
satisfied
with
the
Consolation
of
the
Brest
,
and
to
milk
out
,
and
be
delighted
in
the
abnundance
of
the
sweetness
of
its
vertue
.
Oh
what
!
what
shall
we
render
unto
the
Lord
,
unto
the
Lord
our
God
for
his
benefits
?
oh
!
what
shall
we
render
unto
him
for
his
Mercies
?
what
shall
we
render
unto
him
for
his
loving
kindness
?
Oh!
let
us
take
the
Cup
of
his
Salvation
,
and
drink
thereof
abundantly
;
and
in
the
strength
of
the
vigour
of
its
vertue
,
let
us
,
in
the
meekness
of
our
hearts
,
and
in
the
lowliness
and
contriteness
of
our
Souls
,
praise
,
praise
,
the
Name
of
the
Lord
our
God
,
who
is
worthy
of
all
Glory
and
Praise
,
for
ever
,
and
for
evermore
.
A
few
words
more
unto
you
,
dear
people
,
who
desire
more
after
the
love
and
peace
of
God
,
then
the
glory
and
pleasures
of
the
world
.
Dear
people
,
take
heed
unto
that
which
discovers
unto
you
what
are
your
thoughts
,
whether
they
be
good
or
evil
;
for
that
is
it
which
must
redeem
your
minds
unto
God
;
and
wait
to
come
to
know
it
to
be
a
stay
to
your
minds
,
and
a
stop
to
your
thoughts
,
and
a
bridle
to
your
tongues
,
and
to
cause
a
watch
before
your
mouth
,
and
to
raise
a
holy
fear
in
your
hearts
of
offending
the
Righteous
God
of
Righteousness
,
in
thought
,
in
word
,
in
deed
.
And
dear
people
,
who
have
so
much
depended
and
relied
upon
man
for
teaching
,
retire
you
with
your
minds
inward
,
to
the
manifestation
of
the
Spirit
of
God
in
your
own
hearts
,
and
wait
in
it
to
come
to
know
the
Lord
God
to
be
your
Teacher
;
●hat
if
you
should
be
separated
from
those
that
have
been
your
Teachers
,
and
put
into
a
Hole
,
a
Dungeon
,
or
Cave
of
the
Earth
for
your
Consciences
towards
God
,
and
so
be
separated
from
all
your
teaching
outward
,
you
may
then
feel
,
find
and
witness
the
Lord
to
teach
you
,
to
instruct
you
,
counsel
and
direct
you
,
comfort
and
refresh
you
,
even
by
his
pure
Eternal
Spirit
in
you
;
for
all
the
children
of
the
Lord
,
shall
be
taught
of
the
Lord
,
and
established
in
Righteousness
,
and
great
shall
be
their
peace
in
the
God
of
their
Salvation
,
unto
whom
,
unto
whom
be
glory
,
glory
,
honour
and
praise
for
ever
,
and
evermore
;
for
he
is
worthy
,
he
is
worthy
,
worthy
saith
my
soul
,
unto
whom
be
glory
in
the
highest
.
Amen
.
So
,
dear
people
,
for
your
sakes
mostly
was
these
foregoing
lines
written
,
in
obedience
to
the
tender
spirit
of
love
in
my
heart
,
which
drew
me
thereunto
;
and
in
tender
unfeigned
love
,
and
pure
good-will
to
your
souls
,
who
have
had
,
and
still
have
true
desires
in
your
hearts
after
the
Lord
,
and
have
been
,
and
still
are
thirsting
and
hungering
after
the
way
of
Truth
and
Righteousness
,
and
have
been
,
and
still
are
seeking
and
hunting
among
the
husks
,
shells
,
and
shadows
,
for
to
find
the
substance
,
but
still
fail
of
your
expectation
,
and
cannot
find
true
and
perfect
satisfaction
,
but
secretly
in
your
hearts
are
panting
and
thirsting
after
the
living
water
,
and
are
weary
of
feeding
upon
the
husks
,
and
begin
to
say
(
within
your selves
)
to
each
other
,
Come
,
we
have
been
long
wandering
abroad
,
hunting
after
the
Lord
afar
off
,
seeking
of
him
in
this
Form
,
and
in
the
other
Form
,
running
from
Mountain
to
Hill
,
from
one
Man
to
another
,
to
enquire
for
him
whom
our
Souls
long
for
;
but
we
still
want
the
true
enjoyment
of
him
:
And
although
man
hath
told
us
we
should
find
him
there
in
this
Way
,
and
in
the
other
Way
;
in
this
Form
,
and
in
the
other
Form
;
in
this
Ordinance
,
and
the
other
Ordinance
;
wherein
we
have
been
tossed
about
,
and
turned
from
one
broken
Cistern
to
another
,
but
still
w●
want
true
satisfaction
for
our
souls
,
for
we
want
the
true
enjoyment
of
the
assurance
of
the
Love
and
Peace
of
God
:
wherefore
,
come
let
us
no
longer
hunt
abroad
,
nor
run
any
longer
from
one
man
to
another
.
But
oh
!
come
let
us
retire
our
minds
inward
,
and
in
stillness
and
quietness
,
in
sollidness
and
seriousness
let
us
wait
upon
the
Lord
,
and
he
himself
will
teach
us
of
his
wayes
,
and
lead
us
into
the
path
of
Righteousness
,
where
we
shall
meet
him
whom
our
souls
hath
long
panted
after
,
even
as
the
Hart
panteth
after
the
water
Brooks
;
wherefore
let
us
wait
upon
the
Lord
,
for
the
Lord
is
good
to
the
man
that
waiteth
for
him
,
to
the
And
then
will
the
onely
end
of
my
soul
herein
be
answered
thereby
▪
who
am
your
friend
,
and
one
who
desires
that
you
off
the
barren
mountains
may
be
gathered
,
and
brought
down
into
the
low
valley
,
into
the
fresh
pastures
of
life
,
where
you
may
feed
with
Gods
Babes
and
Lambs
,
and
lie
down
in
the
sold
of
rest
and
peace
,
that
you
might
find
bread
in
your
own
houses
,
and
water
in
your
cisterns
,
the
oyl
in
the
Cruse
that
will
not
fail
,
but
will
satisfie
your
souls
in
drought
,
and
make
fat
your
bones
,
that
you
might
become
like
a
watered
garden
,
and
like
a
spring
of
water
,
whose
waters
fail
not
.
Take
this
as
a
Salutation
of
the
love
and
good-will
of
my
soul
to
you
,
who
am
a
friend
to
all
people

one
that
owns

desires
to
tender

nourish
&
strengthen
the
least
appearance
of
God
in
any
;
A
lover
of
honesty
and
uprightness
in
whomsoever
I
find
it
;
but
a
hater
of
hypocrisie
and
deceit
:
A
Traveller
in
the
womb
of
supplication
for
the
restoring
and
gathering
in
of
the
scattered
sheep
,
and
bringing
home
the
dispierced
of
the
Fold
,
that
all
may
know
one
sheep-fold
,
and
one
shepherd

of

Postscript
.
DEar
People
,
you
in
whose
hearts
there
is
some
tenderness
and
conscienciousness
towards
the
Lord
God
,
if
you
,
because
of
by-ends
,
and
self-interests
,
and
through
letting
in
(
by
your
reasoning
and
consulting
with
flesh
and
blood
)
the
slavish
fear
of
man
(
whose
breath
is
in
his
Nostrils
,
and
can
but
(
if
by
God
permitted
)
kill
the
body
)
doth
consent
,
and
condescend
thereby
(
for
to
save
your selves
from
,
or
out
of
sufferings
,
either
by
body
or
estate
)
to
do
and
joyn
with
that
which
you
are
really
perswaded
in
your
hearts
is
quite
contrary
to
the
mind
and
will
of
God
,
and
so
knows
it
to
be
evil
,
and
also
contrary
to
your
own
Consciences
;
hereby
,
in
so
doing
,
you
may
engage
the
Lord
God
against
you
,
(
in
your
fearing
man
more
then
God
▪
and
come
to
loose
your
tenderness
and
conscienciousness
to
God-ward
,
and
so
hardness
of
heart
may
come
upon
you
,
and
so
you
wholly
die
and
wither
away
(
as
to
all
tenderness
and
conscienciousness
towards
God
)
even
as
grass
upon
the
house
top
.
But
you
dear
people
,
in
whom
there
is
tenderness
and
conscienciousness
towards
the
Lord
God
,
if
you
be
faithful
to
the
Lord
in
your
not
joyning
with
,
nor
consenting
to
do
the
thing
(
for
any
by-ends
,
or
private
interests
whatsoever
,
although
it
be
set
up
and
tollerated
,
and
compelled
to
be
done
by
a
Law
from
man
)
which
you
are
in
your
hearts
truly
and
really
perswaded
is
evil
,
and
contrary
to
the
mind
and
will
of
God
,
and
also
contrary
to
your
own
Consciences
;
but
rather
are
willing
to
expose
your selves
to
suffer
whatever
the
Lord
God
of
Almighty
power
,
and
everlasting
strength
,
(
before
whose
Etern●l
Almightiness
,
and
Everlasting
Powerfulness
,
all
the
strength
,
and
power
of
the
Arm
of
flesh

even
like
a

shall
suffer
man
,
who
to
day
is
,
and
to
morrow
is
not

to
inflict
upon
you
;
you
hereby
will
even
engage
the
Lord
God
of
everlasting
bowels
,
of
infinite
compassion
,
(
who
is
and
will
be
a
strength
to
the
poor
,
feeble
,
weak
and
need●
,
a
shadow
unto
them
from
the
heat
,
a
refuge
unto
them
from
the
storm
,
when
the
blast
of
the
terrible
One
come
upon
them
like
an
overflowing
flood
)
to
stand
for
you
,
and
to
help
you
in
your
need
,
and
in
your
greatest
straights
;
when
you
(
as
Peter
)
are
ready
to
cry
,
Help
,
Lord
,
I
sink
;
to
appear
to
and
for
you
in
the
greatest
measure
of
his
love

who
right
well
knows
what
you
have
need
of

to
minister
strength
unto
you
proportionable
to
your
tryals

hereby
dear
people
●our
tenderness
and
conscientiousness
may
dayly
increase

and
you
come
to
make
conscience
of
that
which
you
have
not
made
conscience
of

and
then
you
may
come
to
find
and
witness
that
this
day
of
tryals
,
sufferings
and
tribulations
is
a
blessed
day
to
you
,
and
turneth
▪
through
the
mercy
and
loving
kindness
of
the
Lord
towards
you

for
your
good
,
so
that
you
may
come
to
bless
and
praise
his
name
for
it
,
unto
whom
be
praise
and
glory
for
evermore
;
But
a
woful
day
to
Hypocrites
,
who
hath
gotten
on
a
garment
of
profession
of
God
and
Christ
,
&c
▪
for
a
cloak
to
cover
their
unrighteousness
and
deceit
;
an
unwelcome
day
to
them
,
a
terrible
day
to
them
,
for
it
will
stain
their
crowns
,
and
mar
their
beauty
,
and
subdue
their
strength
,
and
slay
their
power
,
and
pull
down
their
strong
holds
,
rip
off
their
sheeps
cloathing
,
pull
down
their
gay
Tombs
and
painted
Sepulchres
,
and
their
rottenness
stink
,
and
nakedness
will
appear
.
So
be
it
,
so
be
it
,
Amen
saith
my
soul
.

standing

of
you
in
your

amongst
that
hard

and
crooked
Generation

in
the
midst
of
whom
my

you
in
the

may
shine
as

in

Now
,
dear

the
Lord
hath
caused
you
hitherto
,
to
bear
a
testimony
for
him
,
and
against
that
wicked
spirit
of
Persecution
,
which
would
limit
the
Lord
in
his
people
;
in
this
particuler
fix
in
your
meeting
and
assembling
your selves
together
in
his
fear
,
to
wait
upon
him

it

been
though
Sufferings

I
Cry
unto

do
not
grow
faint
,
nor
weary
of
bearing
your

still
for
the

of
God

in
your

together
in
his

;
for
dear
Friends
,
wherein
can
we
(
in
one
particular
exercise
of
the
spirit
of
truth
)
bear
a
larger
testimony
for
the
truth
,
then
in

assembling
our selves
together
in
the
truth
,
to
worship
the
God
of
truth
,
in
the
spirit
of
truth

seeing
that
this
is
the
thing
(
above
many
)
which
the
wicked
spirit
of
persecution
,
doth
so
eagerly
,
and
so
highly
oppose
,
and
so
eanestly
seek
,
and
so
greatly
indeavour
,
to
deprive
us
of
,
and
confine
us
from
;
wherefore
dear
Friends
,
I
cannot
but
in
the
Love
and
Zeal
of
the
truth
,
exhort
you
all
,
not
to
neglect
meeting
together
in
the
fear
of
God
,
so
long
as
the
Lord
permit
you
Liberty
so
to
do
.
And
oh
,
let
not
the
smalness
of
your
number
(
you
little
Flock
,
who
are
hated
and
rejected
by
the
world
)
be
any
discouragement
to
you
in
this
matter
;
but
oh
,
rather
be
you
incouraged
thereby
,
in
the
strength
of
the
Lord
,
in
love
to
his
truth
,
to
bear
up
your
testimony
,
(
in
that
great
Town
,
in
the
midst
of
so
many
Persecutors
)
faithfully
in
your
measures
,
even
to
the
honour
of
the
Lord
&
his
truth
.
My
dear
friends
,
let
me
say
again
,
neglect
not
meeting
together
,
through
giving
way
to
the
sloth●ul
careless
spirit
,
or
through
letting
in
the
fear
of
man
into
your
hearts
,
for
indeed
,
my
dear
friends
,
although
you
be
a
poor
small
Remnant
,
for
whom
my
soul
travelleth
with
the
Lord
for
your
preservation
,
yet
behold
,
as
you
keep
your
meetings
in
the
fear
and
name
of
the
Lord
,
you
will
feel
and
injoy
his
living
presence
in
and
amongst
you
,
which
will
make
your
meetings
profitable
unto
you
.
And
dear
Babes
,
in
stillness
,
quietness
,
in
peace
,
pati●nce
,
and
contentedness
possess
your
souls
,
in
the
dominion
of
truth
to
reign
over
all
those
thoughts
,
reasonings
and
consultings
,
which
the
Enemy
of
your
souls
would
infuse
into
your
minds
,
whereby
he
would
raise
trouble
and
tumult
in
your
hearts
,
and
bring
faintness
and
weakness
upon
you
.
And
dear
Friends
,
lend
not
an
ear
to
listen
after
the
rumours
and
reports
of
the
world
,
nor
heed
not
the
boasting
of
the
wicked
,
neither
regard
the
threatning
of
truths
Enemies
;
but
dear
Babes
,
continually
lend
an
ear
unto
the
Lord
,
and
hearken
you
unto
his
Counsel
,
and
have
continual
regard
unto
him
in
your
hearts
,
and
wait
to
feel
his
presence
with
you
continually
,
and
know
your
unity
with
him
;
and
every
perticular
one
feel
and
find
in
your selves
,
that
the
Lord
God
almighty
is
on
your
sides
;
and
then
,
my
dear
Friends
,
you
need
not
matter
who
are
against
you
,
if
the
Lord
be
for
you
;
so
dear
Lambs
,
be
faithful
to
the
Lord
,
and
to
his
truth
in
your
measures
;
and
be
not
D●scouraged
nor
Danted
,
(
through
the
sence
of
the
rage
,
wroth
and
bitterness
of
your
Enemies
,
and
through
the
feeling
of
your
own
weakness
and
feebleness
)
but
trust
ye
in
the
Lord
,
and
hope
ye
in
his
tender
bowels
,
which
are
opened
with
groanings
of
compassion
towards
his
poor
afflicted
suffering
people
,
who
is
,
and
yet
will
be
,
a
strength
to
the
poor
and
needy
,
a
refuge
unto
them
from
the
storm
,
and
a
shadow
unto
them
from
the
heat
,
a
helper
in
the
time
of
need
,
a
Deliverer
out
of
trouble
in
the
greatest
straits
;
who
will
appear
to
help
his
helpless
ones
,
wh●
have
no
other
helper
but
the
Lord
.
So
,
the
Lord
God
almighty
be
with
you
,
and
gird
up
your
loins
with
Courage
,
Boldness
,
Strength
and
Valour
,
and
spread
upon
you
the
mantle
of
faithfulness
,
and
cause
you
to
persevere
on
in
the
perpetual
patience
,
and
to
abide
in
the
continual
content
,
therein
to
run
the
race
that
is
set
before
you
,
which
you
have
begun
:
And
the
Lord
almighty
of
heaven
and
of
earth
,
for
his
own
seeds
sake
,
keep
you
from
fainting
by
the
way
,
and
carry
you
through
all
whatever
either
outwardly
or
inwardly
you
do
,
or
may
meet
withal
,
and
keep
you
,
and
preserve
you
unto
the
end
,
that
in
the
end
,
dear
Lambs
,
we
may
lay
down
our
heads
together
,
in
the
sweet
bosom
of
the
Lord
God
of
everlasting
rest
,
peace
and
quietness
,
in
whose
sweet
,
meek
,
heavenly
,
humbling
,
melting
love
,
my
soul
dearly
salutes
you
all
,
and
commits
you
all
unto
the
Lord
God
almighty
.
Farewell
,
dear
Friends
,
Dwell
together
in
that
love
which
thinks
no
evil
,
therein
forgiving
and
forbearing
one
another
,
even
as
the
tender
God
of
bowels
hath
forgiven
you
,
and
born
with
you
day
after
day
,
and
time
after
time
;
and
dwell
all
in
the
meek
spirit
of
self-denial
,
keeping
the
unity
in
the
spirit
,
in
the
bond
of
peace
.

,
oh

Oh!
oh
my
soul
,
my
soul
,
remember
thou
wert
once
a
prisoner
in
the
prison
house
of
darkness
,
strongly
bound
in
chains
and
fetters
,
a
slave
and
a
captive
in
the
Land
of
Egypt
,
under
the
servitude
and
slavery
of
the
Prince
and
power
of
darkness
,
the
god
of
the
world
,
the
king
of
Egypt
:
and
under
thy
hard
bondage
,
and
deplorable
thraldom
and
miserable
captivity
,
oh
my
soul
!
thou
wert
made
in
secret
to
cry
and
groan
,
under
thy
burdens
unto
the
Lord
thy
tender
God
,
whose
bowels
,
whose
tender
bowels
of
infinite
pity
and
unsathomable
compassion
did
(
in
mercy
to
thee
)
hover
over
thee
,
even
in
that
thy
sad
miserable
deplorable
state
;
first
made
thee
sensible
of
thy
sad
captivity
,
and
so
in
the
sence
thereof
,
and
in
the
sence
of
thy
own
helplessness
,
how
dids●
thou
cry
,
cry
unto
the
Lord
God
of
pity
for
help
,
and
groan
unto
him
for
deliverance
,
oh
my
soul
!
and
the
Lord
who
opened
thine
eye
,
and
gave
thee
a
glimpse
of
thy
sad
estate
,
did
hear
thy
groanings
,
and
thy
cries
,
and
(
for
his
own
Seeds
sake
)
set
himself
,
by
the
out-stretched
Arm
of
his
power
,
to
deliver
thee
out
of
thy
sad
captivity
,
in
which
thou
were
,
without
help
of
thy
own
,
and
there
must
abode
,
had
not
the
Lord
God
of
everlasting
unfathomable
bowels
of
pity
had
mercy
upon
thee
,
oh
my
soul
!
Oh
,
oh
!
oh
my
soul
,
my
soul
,
the
remembrance
of
the
tender
love
,
the
tender
pity
,
the
tender
mercy
,
of
thy
tender
pitiful
God
:
how
can
it
but
even
rend
thy
bowels
even
from
top
to
bottom
,
oh
my
soul
;
and
remember
,
oh
my
soul
!
how
the
Lord
God
Almighty
,
through
his
sore
plagues
and
righteous
judgments
executed
upon
Pharaoh
the
King
of
Egypt
,
under
whom
thou
wert
a
slave
,
by
an
out-stretched
and
a
mighty
power
,
by
the
slaying
with
the
sword
of
his
vengeance
the
first-born
of
Egypt
,
brought
thee
out
of
the
prison-house
,
who
broke
thy
chains
in
pieces
,
and
snapt
thy
bonds
asunder
,
and
brought
thee
out
of
Egypt
,
and
set
thy
face
toward
Canaan
,
the
good
Land
that
floweth
with
milk
and
honey
.
And
remember
,
oh
my
soul
!
how
wonderfully
the
Lord
God
,
who
by
his
mighty
power
and
out-stretched
arm
brought
thee
out
of
Egypt
,
preserved
thee
and
upheld
thee
in
thy
long
journey
unto
Canaan
,
thy
tedious
way
and
passage
through
the
sea
and
wilde●ness
,
how
gently
did
he
lead
thee
,
as
a
tender
nursing
Father
,
and
carried
thee
as
in
his
arms
,
and
bore
with
thee
in
his
mercy
towards
thee
,
when
thou
sometimes
murmured
against
him
,
because
of
the
length
and
straightness
of
the
way
that
he
led
thee
in
,
and
because
of
the
enemies
thou
hadst
to
encounter
with
by
the
way
,
insomuch
that
thou
sometimes
backslided
in
thy
heart
towards
Egypt
,
and
lusted
after
the
flesh-pots
thereof
,
and
murmured
against
the
Lord
,
who
so
led
thee
about
in
such
a
cross
knotty
way
,
to
that
part
,
in
the
which
through
the
cross
,
straightness
and
length
of
the
way
,
was
to
die
,
pine
,
and
wither
,
and
be
worn
away
,
and
fall
in
the
wilderness
,
and
not
enter
into
the
holy
Land
,
and
yet
the
Lord
thy
tende●
God
,
who
did
corre●●
thee
through
his
righteous
〈◊〉
;
and
as
a
tender
,
hea●●ed
Father
did
chas●ise
thee
fo●
〈…〉
,
complain●ngs
,
a●●
murmu●ings
against
him
,
and
〈…〉
ba●●s●iding
towar●●
Egypt
,
did
not
destroy
thee
,
but
bear
with
thy
weaknes●●●
and
infirmities
,
and
nourished
thee
and
cherished
thee
day
by
day
,
and
as
a
tender
hearted
Mother
nurseth
the
only
tender
babe
of
her
womb
;
who
led
thee
by
a
pillar
of
a
cloud
by
day
,
which
was
a
shadow
unto
thee
from
the
heat
,
and
a
pillar
of
fire
by
night
,
which
gave
thee
light
by
night
,
when
the
Sun
was
under
the
earth
:
who
when
thou
wert
an
hungry
,
he
gave
thee
bread
from
heaven
day
by
day
,
fresh
Manna
morning
by
morning
compassed
about
thy
tent
,
and
gave
thee
water
out
of
the
rock
to
satisfie
thy
thirst
;
yea
,
oh
my
soul
great
,
greatly
hath
the
mercy
,
love
,
pity
and
compassion
of
the
Lord
thy
tender
God
been
manifested
towards
thee
:
how
did
he
fight
for
thee
,
and
subdue
thy
enemies
before
thee
,
and
made
way
for
thy
passage
!
yea
,
remember
,
remember
oh
my
soul
!
oh
my
soul
!
how
that
after
he
had
brought
thee
out
of
Egypt
by
his
out-strctched
arm
,
and
mighty
wonderful
power
,
how
mightily
and
wonderfully
did
he
appear
for
thee
,
to
help
thee
in
thy
time
of
great
need
,
and
extream
distress
,
and
great
trouble
,
even
when
Pharaoh
and
his
great
host
followed
hard
after
thee
,
and
pursued
strongly
to
overtake
thee
,
and
bring
thee
back
again
into
Egypt
under
his
slavery
and
servitude
And
when
Pharaoh
and
his
host
followed
so
close
after
thee
and
the
Sea
,
the
great
Sea
,
was
before
thee
,
and
mountains
on
each
side
of
thee
,
how
great
was
the
straight
thou
wert
in
,
and
the
trouble
and
sorrow
that
compassed
thee
about
,
oh
my
soul
!
that
thou
wert
even
at
thy
wits
end
.
And
oh
!
oh
my
soul
,
my
soul
,
in
this
time
of
thy
greatest
straight
and
trouble
(
●ven
when
thou
wert
without
help
of
thy
own
)
thou
criest
unto
the
Lord
thy
God
,
who
gave
thee
some
glimpse
of
comfort
,
saying
,
he
would
fight
for
thee
,
and
thou
shouldst
be
still
,
and
hold
thy
peace
;
and
so
he
by
his
mighty
power
made
hard
things
to
become
easie
unto
thee
,
and
that
which
appeared
as
a
thing
unpossible
unto
thee
,
he
(
by
his
power
)
made
it
become
possible
unto
thee
.
Remember
,
oh
my
soul
,
how
he
made
a
way
for
thee
to
pass
through
the
Sea
,
and
divided
the
waters
thereof
hither
and
thither
,
and
by
his
mighty
power
carried
thee
through
the
Sea
,
and
Pharoah
and
his
host
he
utterly
destroyed
in
his
wrath
,
and
delivered
thee
,
oh
my
soul
,
out
of
his
hand
,
and
destroyed
them
who
would
have
destroyed
thee
,
and
gave
thee
dominion
over
them
that
had
dominion
over
thee
,
and
thou
sawest
them
lie
dead
as
by
the
Sea
shore
;
glory
,
glory
,
glory
,
ah
!
glory
,
glory
,
and
pure
praises
,
praises
to
God
,
to
the
Lord
God
,
even
thy
God
,
oh
my
soul
!
and
now
,
oh
my
soul
,
thou
canst
sing
a
song
of
deliverance
,
a
song
of
victory
and
triumph
,
and
go
into
the
Sanctuary
of
God
,
to
the
Altar
of
God
,
thy
God
,
even
God
,
thy
exceeding
joy
;
ah
!
and
upon
the
Harp
thou
canst
praise
God
,
the
Lord
thy
God
,
thy
delight
and
joy
.
Oh!
oh
my
soul
,
my
soul
,
thou
in
the
lowly
fear
and
holy
dread
of
the
Lord
thy
tender
God
,
and
in
truth
and
righteousness
livingly
and
experimentally
canst
say
,
the
Lord
my
God
is
my
strength
and
my
song
,
he
also
is
become
my
salvation
,
he
is
my
Rock

strong
Tower
,
his
work
is
perfect
,
a
God
,
the
God
of
truth
and
righteousness
,
just
and
right
he
is
,
the
holy
one
whose
dwelling
is
on
high
,
in
the
holy
place
,
and
with
him
also
who
is
of
a
poor
,
and
a
meek
,
and
a
contrite
spirit
,
and
that
trembleth
before
his
Holiness
,
and
fears
and
dreads
before
his
dreadful
Name
:
ah
!
ah
thy
right
hand
O
Lord
,
thy
right
hand
,
O
Lord
God
of
power
,
is
become
glorious
in
power
,
is
become
mighty
in
power
,
thy
right
hand
O
Lord
God
Almighty
,
hath
dashed
in
pieces
mine
enemies
by
the
greatness
,
O
Lord
my
God
,
by
the
greatness
of
thy
;
wonderful
excellency
,
thou
hast
O
Lord
confounded
them
that
rose
up
against
me
;
thou
lettest
forth
thy
wrath
and
consumed
them
as
stubble
before
a
mighty
fire
,
thou
lettest
forth
the
breath
of
thy
fury
,
and
blew
upon
them
,
and
scattered
them
as
chaff
before
a
mighty
wind
:
Oh!
oh
who
can
stand
before
thy
indignation
,
thy
dreadful
indignation
?
who
can
abide
the
extream
fierceness
of
thy
anger
?
thy
fury
is
poured
forth
like
fire
,
thou
breakest
the
r●cks
in
pieces
,
the
mountains
tremble
before
thee
the
mighty
God
;
thou
utterest
thy
voice
,
and
the
Heathen
tremble
,
thou
roarest
,
and
the
Kingdoms
are
moved
,
and
the
earth
melteth
at
the
appearance
of
thy
presence
,
who
cometh
with
fire
,
and
thy
Chariots
like
a
whirle-wind
;
thou
renderest
thy
anger
with
fury
,
and
thy
rebukes
with
flames
of
fire
:
thou
hast
thy
way
in
the
whirle-winds
,
and
the
Clouds
are
as
the
dust
of
thy
feet
.
Thou
art
the
mighty
God
,
who
can
but
fear
before
thee
,
and
tremble
at
thy
eternal
presence
?
thou
roarest
out
of
thy
Sion
,
and
utterest
thy
voice
from
thy
Jerusalem
,
and
the
Inhabitants
of
the
earth
tremble
thereat
;
but
still
thou
art
the
hope
of
thy
People
,
and
the
strength
of
thy
ransomed
ones
,
their
strong
Tower
,
their
present
Helper
in
the
time
of
trouble
.
Wherefore
,
I
'll
not
fear
though
the
Earth
be
removed
and
carried
into
the
midst
of
the
Sea
,
and
though
the
Sea
roar
and
be
terrible
,
and
the
Mountains
shake
with
the
swellings
thereof
,
and
the
Hills
fly
before
it
;
though
the
tall
Cedars
of
Lebanon
fall
,
and
the
strong
Oaks
of
Bashan
bend
before
it
,
yet
I
will
not
fear
,
the
Lord
is
with
me
,
and
he
will
not
forsake
me
,
but
he
will
help
me
,
and
that
right
early
.
Wherefore
I
will
only
fear
before
the
Lord
,
before
the
Lord
my
God
,
the
mighty
eternal
God
of
mighty
eternal
Power
,
who
measureth
out
the
Heavens
as
with
a
span
,
and
measureth
the
waters
of
the
Seas
in
the
hollow
of
his
hand
;
who
comprehendeth
the
dust
of
the
Earth
in
a
measure
,
&
weigheth
the
Mountains
as
in
scales
,
and
the
Hills
as
in
a
ballance
;
who
taketh
up
the
Islands
as
a
very
little
thing
;
before
whose
face
the
Heavens
and
the
Earth
flee
away
,
and
behold
there
appeareth
no
more
Sea
.
Oh!
who
can
but
fear
before
thee
,
O
Lord
my
God
?
the
enemy
said
,
I
'll
pursue
,
I
'll
overtake
,
I
'll
not
spare
,
my
lusts
shall
be
satisfied
on
him
.
But
O
Lord
,
O
Lord
God
,
my
God
,
thou
wert
my
God
,
near
to
help
in
the
time
of
need
,
and
in
the
time
of
greatest
need
appeared
,
appeared
in
the
greatest
power
of
love
.
O
Lord
,
thou
blew
upon
them
,
and
the
Sea
covered
them
,
and
they
sunk
as
Lead
in
the
bottom
of
the
mighty
Waters
.
O
Lord
,
O
Lord
God
,
who
is
like
unto
thee
?
who
amongst
the
gods
is
like
unto
thee
the
only
God
,
who
art
dreadful
in
holiness
,
fearful
in
praises
,
doing
wonders
?
Oh!
let
the
people
hear
and
be
afraid
,
and
the
Dukes
of
Edom
be
amazed
,
and
let
trembling
take
hold
of
the
mighty
men
of
Moab
;
oh
!
who
can
but
fear
before
thee
,
O
Lord
my
God
.
Thou
hast
redeemed
me
,
and
led
me
forth
in
thy
power
,
and
guided
me
in
thy
strength
,
unto
thy
holy
habitation
;
thou
wilt
bring
me
in
,
and
plant
me
in
the
mountain
of
thy
Inheritance
,
in
thy
Sanctuary
O
Lord
,
which
thy
hands
have
established
,
wherein
I
shall
live
with
thee
,
O
Lord
my
God
for
ever
:
Ah
,
glory
,
glory
,
glory
unto
thee
O
Lord
God
my
God
.
The
Lord
is
a
man
of
war
,
the
Lord
of
Host
is
his
name
;
Pharaoh
and
his
mighty
men
hath
he
drowned
in
the
Sea
,
but
he
hath
saved
thee
,
oh
my
soul
!
So
Lord
let
thine
enemies
perish
,
but
let
them
that
hope
in
thy
mercy
live
for
ever
,
to
declare
thy
wonders
,
and
magnifie
thy
name
in
the
land
of
the
living
.
Ah!
glory
,
glory
,
ah
glory
,
glory
to
God
,
the
mighty
God
;
ah
!
praises
,
praises
,
honour
and
thanksgiving
unto
thee
,
O
Lord
my
God
,
who
lives
for
ever
and
for
evermore
.
Amen
.
Oh!
oh
what
is
this
what
is
this
that
the
Lord
thy
tender
God
of
infinite
bowels
of
pity
hath
done
for
thee
,
oh
my
soul
?
thou
wert
a
slave
in
the
Land
of
Egypt
,
and
the
Lord
hath
redeemed
thee
,
oh
my
soul
!
thou
wert
in
darkness
,
and
the
Lord
hath
given
thee
light
;
and
thou
wert
under
the
region
and
shadow
of
death
,
and
he
hath
brought
thee
forth
in
the
to
Land
of
life
.
Thou
wert
in
the
prison
,
shut
up
in
the
prison-house
,
bound
up
with
chains
and
fetters
,
in
the
low
dungeon
of
darkness
,
and
he
hath
broken
thy
chains
,
and
snapt
thy
fetters
asunder
,
and
loosed
thy
bonds
,
and
broke
up
the
prison
door
,
and
pulled
down
the
prison
house
,
and
set
thee
free
oh
my
soul
!
Oh
my
soul
,
my
soul
!
thou
wert
a
captive
in
the
Land
of
Babylon
,
estranged
from
the
Common-wealth
of
Israel
,
and
an
Alien
from
Sion
,
sitting
sorrowful
and
solitary
by
the
River
of
Babylon
in
the
Land
of
Captivity
,
mourning
when
thou
thoughst
upon
Sion
,
for
thou
wert
a
Captive
in
a
strange
Land
,
and
sorrow
(
through
the
sence
of
thy
woful
Captivity
and
Alienation
from
thy
native
Land
)
compassed
thee
about
,
and
trouble
on
every
hand
;
tears
was
thy
drink
,
daily
sorrow
thy
meat
,
and
groans
and
sighs
thy
greatest
joy
;
thou
wentest
bowed
down
all
the
day
long
with
an
heart
aking
,
and
thine
eyes
dropping
with
tears
,
because
of
the
oppressions
of
thine
enemies
,
and
burdens
of
thine
oppressours
;
and
at
the
remembrance
of
Sion
(
and
in
the
sence
of
thy
separation
from
her
)
thou
didst
pant
,
oh
my
soul
!
thou
didst
pant
after
Sion
,
the
Land
of
thy
nativity
;
Oh!
as
the
Hart
pan●eth
after
the
water
brooks
,
crying
in
the
anguish
of
thy
sorrow
;
how
long
Lord
,
how
long
shall
I
be
a
captive
in
a
strange
Land
?
with
longing
d●sires
in
thy
heart
after
Sion
:
thinking
in
thy
heart
,
oh
!
when
shall
I
walk
with
the
ransomed
of
the
Lord
upon
the
Mountain
of
Sion
,
and
travel
with
the
Lords
redeemed
in
the
streets
of
Jerusalem
;
and
in
that
day
,
oh
my
soul
!
the
Lord
for
his
own
Seeds
sake
had
regard
unto
thy
cries
,
and
thy
tears
and
sorrows
was
not
hid
from
the
view
of
his
tender
pitiful
eye
,
and
in
tender
mercy
and
bowels
of
compassion
towards
thee
:
he
,
through
his
free
love
unto
thee
,
brought
thee
forth
out
of
Babilon
,
the
Land
of
thy
captivity
,
and
set
thy
face
towards
Sion
thy
desired
rest
,
oh
,
my
soul
.
But
oh
!
oh
my
soul
,
how
oft
wert
thou
bewildered
in
thy
going
,
even
after
thy
face
was
turned
towards
Sion
travelling
thitherward
;
saying
in
thy
heart
,
oh
!
I
will
go
joyn
my self
unto
Sion
in
a
perpetual
Covenant
which
shall
never
be
broken
,
losing
thy
way
,
some
times
wandering
as
it
were
in
the
wilderness
,
in
the
deserts
and
solitary
places
,
hungry
and
thirsty
,
my
soul
even
fainting
with
weakness
,
and
then
didst
thou
cry
unto
the
Lord
in
thy
distress
,
and
he
helpt
thee
out
of
all
thy
troubles
,
he
took
thee
by
the
right
hand
,
and
brought
thee
into
the
right
way
in
which
thou
mightest
come
to
thy
desired
rest
,
oh
my
soul
!
And
now
,
oh
my
soul
,
thou
art
come
to
Sion
with
songs
and
everlasting
joy
upon
thy
head
,
and
thou
hast
obtained
joy
and
gladness
,
and
thy
sighing
and
mourning
is
fled
away
.
And
now
,
oh
my
soul
!
thou
that
wert
in
a
desert
doth
rejoyce
,
and
as
a
wilderness
are
made
glad
,
and
as
a
solitary
Place
doth
blosom
as
a
Rose
,
as
a
dry
heath
,
now
as
a
fruitful
valley
,
as
the
parched
ground
,
now
as
the
moist
mould
that
drinketh
in
the
rain
that
comes
upon
it
.
Now
,
oh
my
soul
!
thou
in
truth
canst
say
the
wilderness
doth
rejoyce
;
and
the
desert
and
solitary
place
is
made
glad
,
and
blossom
as
a
Rose
;
water
comes
forth
out
of
the
wilderness
,
and
streams
in
the
desert
,
the
parched
ground
is
become
a
pool
,
and
the
dry
heath
springs
of
water
;
now
the
mourner
rejoyces
,
and
the
heavy
hearted
is
made
glad
,
and
beauty
is
giving
in
stead
of
ashes
,
the
oyl
of
joy
for
mourning
,
the
garment
of
praise
for
the
spirit
of
heaviness
;
now
,
oh
my
soul
!
is
thy
horn
exalted
in
the
Lord
in
whom
thy
mouth
is
enlarged
over
thy
enemies
:
ah
!
the
Lord
maketh
rich
,
and
he
maketh
poor
;
he
woundeth
,
and
he
maketh
whole
;
he
killeth
,
and
he
maketh
alive
;
he
bringeth
down
,
and
he
raiseth
up
;
he
raiseth
up
the
poor
out
of
the
dust
,
and
the
beggar
from
off
the
dunghil
,
and
setteth
them
among
Princes
,
and
causeth
them
to
inherit
the
seat
of
Glory
.
Yea
,
the
full
he
emptieth
,
that
they
hire
themselves
out
for
bread
,
and
they
that
were
hungry
and
empty
he
filleth
with
good
things
:
yea
,
the
barren
he
causeth
to
bear
seven
,
and
she
that
hath
had
many
children
is
waxed
feeble
:
this
is
the
Lords
doing
,
and
it
is
morvellous
in
thy
eyes
,
oh
my
soul
!
Oh!
my
soul
,
my
soul
,
thou
canst
in
truth
say
,
thy
winter
is
(
in
measure
)
over
and
gone
,
and
the
stormy
wind
is
fled
away
,
and
the
cold
parching
frosts
are
dissolved
,
and
the
spring
and
summer
is
come
,
and
the
Sun
with
its
warm
beams
breaks
forth
,
and
the
gentle
showers
descends
,
and
the
time
of
the
singing
of
birds
is
come
,
and
the
turtle
is
heard
in
thy
land
,
oh
my
soul
▪
and
the
vine
putteth
forth
her
tender
grapes
,
and
the
fig-tree
with
her
pleasant
figs
give
a
goodly
smell
.
And
now
oh
!
my
soul
,
thou
canst
set
under
thy
vine
,
and
under
thy
fig-tree
with
thy
beloved
:
and
who
shall
make
thee
afraid
,
with
whom
thou
canst
walk
into
his
pleasant
garden
of
delights
,
among
t●●
beds
of
spices
,
and
feed
among
the
lillies
,
and
there
solace
thy self
in
the
bosome
of
his
love
.
For
,
oh
my
soul
,
oh
my
soul
!
there
was
a
time
when
thou
oh
my
soul
!
hadst
lost
thy
beloved
,
and
thou
soughtst
him
by
night
upon
thy
bed
,
and
in
the
broad
ways
,
but
thou
foundst
him
not
;
and
therefore
sorrow
compassed
thee
as
a
wall
about
,
and
mourning
covered
thee
as
a
garment
,
and
thou
couldst
have
no
rest
,
until
thou
hadst
found
thy
beloved
,
crying
fiercely
in
thy
heart
,
saying
in
thy
ardent
desires
after
him
,
oh
▪
oh
thou
art
hid
from
me
as
in
the
clifts
of
the
rocks
,
and
as
in
the
secret
places
of
the
stairs
:
let
me
see
thy
countenance
,
and
let
me
hear
thy
voice
,
for
sweet
is
thy
voice
,
and
thy
countenance
is
comely
;
and
when
he
did
some●imes
shew
himself
unto
thee
behind
the
wall
,
or
as
through
a
lattice
,
and
put
his
fingers
in
by
the
hole
of
the
door
,
thy
bowels
were
moved
for
him
.
But
now
,
oh
my
soul
!
thou
dost
enjoy
his
presence
,
which
is
sweet
and
pleasant
to
thee
,
he
is
as
a
bundle
of
myrrhe
,
he
is
thy
joy
,
thou
sits
under
his
shadow
with
great
delight
;
for
he
is
a
bower
of
spices
unto
thee
,
and
his
fruit
is
sweet
to
thy
taste
,
he
hath
brought
thee
into
his
banketting
house
,
where
his
banner
over
thee
is
love
,
where
he
comforteth
thee
with
the
flaggons
of
his
love
,
he
causeth
thee
to
drink
of
his
spiced
wine
,
which
is
as
the
liquor
of
life
,
and
the
juyce
of
his
pomegranates
,
which
is
as
honey
to
thy
taste
.
Oh
my
soul
!
he
filleth
thee
with
good
things
,
that
so
thou
mightest
become
as
a
watered
garden
,
and
as
a
spring
of
water
,
whose
water
fails
not
;
that
thy
bones
might
flourish
as
an
herb
,
and
thy
kidneys
be
covered
with
fatness
and
thy
belly
become
as
an
oily
Brook
:
thus
hath
the
Lord
thy
tender
God
,
thy
merciful
God
,
oh
my
soul
!
set
thee
free
from
the
yoak
of
bondage
.
And
now
,
oh
my
soul
!
rejoyce
in
fear
and
trembling
,
and
dread
and
fear
continually
in
the
holy
presence
of
the
Lord
thy
God
,
and
watch
,
watch
,
watch
,
oh
my
soul
!
diligently
watch
in
the
lowly
fear
and
godly
jealousie
over
thy
own
heart
,
trembling
in
thy
bowels
,
lest
thou
,
oh
my
soul
!
in
the
joy
(
the
great
joy
)
in
the
sence
of
what
the
Lord
hath
done
for
thee
(
and
in
a
sight
of
thy
good
state
thou
art
advanced
to
)
should
be
lifted
up
above
what
is
meet
,
and
thereby
come
to
lo●s
and
a
fall
;
wherefore
,
oh
my
soul
,
to
prevent
such
mishaps
coming
unto
thee
unawares
,
keep
thee
watchful
and
low
in
fear
,
and
humble
and
contrite
in
heart
,
and
meek
and
chaste
in
mind
,
tender
and
broken
in
bowels
,
poor
and
needy
in
spirit
,
waiting
and
depending
upon
the
meer
preserving
grace
of
the
merciful
hand
of
thy
merciful
,
piti●ul
compa●●●onate
God
of
infinite
loving
kindness
;
that
whatever
thou
dost
or
suffers
(
through
his
strength
)
for
him
,
thou
mayst
not
be
(
in

return

shine
in

giving

his
Truth

shut

your
cause
is
good
for
which
you
suffer

and
the
Lord
God
who
is
ingaged
for
you
,
whom
you
love
,
and
do
manifest
it
unto
the
world
,
through
your
willingness
to
suffer
for
him
(
rather
then
to
do
that
which
you
know
is
contrary
unto
his
will
;
or
forbear
doing
of
that
which
he
willeth
you
to
do
)
well
he
will
stand
by
you
,
and
will
not
leave
you
in
the
time
of
your
need
;
of
his
helping
upholding
power
,
as
you
abide
Faithful
unto
him
,
in
whose
just
cause
you
are
ingaged

fully
plead
it
,
with
his
and
your
Adversaries
,
in
his

time
,
to
your
joy
and
their
torment

except
they
repent
.
Dear

it
doth
rejoyce
,
because
of
your
Faithfulness
to
the
Lord
,
in
bearing
your
Testimony
for
his
Name
:
Ah
,
the
Lord
God
Almighty
keep
you
faithful
unto
the
end
,
that
so
you
may
not
faint
,
nor
grow
weary
,
before
your
Testimony
for
the
Lord
be
finished
;
that
so
you
may
not
fall
short
of
the
Crown
,
which
is
laid
up
for
you
if
ye
abide
to
the
end
,
even
a
full
recompence
of
reward
for
all
your
sufferings
and
afflictions
,
you
do
or
may
meet
with
for
your
faithfulness

bowels
,
of
most
indeared
,
intire
,
unfained
love
,
doth
my
soul
very
dearly
salute
you
,
dear
hearts
;
unto
whom
I
commend
you
,
whose
pure
,
quickning
,
holy
,
heavenly
presence
,
I
desire
may
be
abundantly
with
you
daily
,
for
the
keeping
of
you
all
in
pure
patience
and
contentedness
,
and
in
a
true
submission
to
his
heavenly
will
,
that
his
joy
,
comfort
and
consolation
,
and
sweet
peace
may
abound
in
and
unto
your
souls
;
to
the
bearing
of
you
up
above
all
tryals
that
you
do
meet
withall
,
that
you
may
not
sink
under
them
,
and
that
over
the
temptations
of
your
Adversaries
within
and
without
,
you
may
Reign
and
be
made
more
then
Conquerers
,
through
the
Lord
who
hath
loved
you
,
and
counted
you
worthy
to
believe
in
his
Name
and
Truth
,
and
to
suffer
for
the
same
.
Oh
,
the
Lord
my
God
,
even
your

tender
God
,
keep
you
low
in
his
holy
fear
,

very
watchful

diligent
in

Light
,
having
your
minds
exercised
therein
,
and
girded
thereby
unto
the
Lord
;
that
so
indeed
,

you
may
learn
much
by

even
to
your

joy
in
God
,
feeling
indeed
that
the
Lord
doth
cause
these
your
sufferings
to
work
together
for
your
good
,
that
so
you
indeed
,
dear
Lambs
,
may
find
cause
thereby
,
the
more
to
praise
and
glorifie
the
name
of
the
Lord
,
and
to
make
mention
of
his
goodness
and
mercies
,
and
to
magnifie
his
name
in
the
land
of
the
living
;
unto
whom

To
the
s●ffering
Lambs
,
of
the
Lords
Flock
in
Prison
Greeting
.
DEar
suffering
tribulated
Lambs
of
my
Maker
;
ah
dearly
beloved
Friends
,
the
tender
unfeigned
salutation
of
my
soul
reacheth
unto
you
,
in
the
unchangable
Love
,
of
the
unchangable
Truth
,
of
the
living
unchangable
God
;
whereof
he
hath
made
us
pertakers
,
and
of
which
he
hath
made
us
witnesses
,
and
for
which
he
hath
(
through
his
love
his
constraining
,
overcoming
,
powerful
Love
)
made
us
willing
to
suffer
,
and
to
part
with
,
and
be
separated
from
our
dea●●st
F●●ends
and
near●st
Relations
;
and
to
be
willing
to
indure
,
and
●o
pass
through
what
ever
sufferings
the
Lord
our
God
shall
permit
to
be
infflicted
upon
us
,
rather
then
(
for
any
by
●●ds
and
self-in●●●●st
)
to
condecend
to
do
that
thing
willingly
,
which
we
know
●ould
cause
Gods
Truth
to
suffer
,
his
holy
Name
to
be
dishonoured
,
his
holy
Spirit
to
be
grieved
,
and
our
Consciences
to
be
defiled
thereby
;
ah
in
this
frame
of
spirit
&
free
given
up
state
,
the
Lord
God
of
power
keep
us
by
his
power
(
with
the
rest
of
his
dear
innocent
suffering
Lambs
elsewhere
)
for
his
own
name-sake
,
even
unto
the
end
,
until
our
Testimony
for
the
Lord
,
which
he
in
his
beloved
Son
hath
counted
us
worthy
to
bear
,
in
this
his
day
,
be
finished
to
the
praise
glory
and
renown
of
his
holy
powerful
name
,
and
to
the
everlasting
Joy
,
and
eternal
Peace
of
our
immortal
souls
,
Amen
,
saith
my
soul
,
which
doth
fervently
desire
,
dear
suffering
Lambs
,
that
the
holy
living
presence
of
my
God
,
may
be
in
,
with
,
and
amongst
you
all
,
to
your
Joy
and
Comfort
,
and
that
his
power
may
uphold
you
,
and
that
his
strength
may
support
you
,
and
keep
up
your
heads
above
all
your
sufferings
and
tryals
;
that
so
none
may
grow
weary
nor
faint
in
your
minds
,
but
you
may
be
made
strong
in
the
Lord
,
and
be
able
in
the
power
of
his
might
,
to
resist
,
thresh
,
hammer
and
beat
down
every
thought
,
and
all
carnal
reasonings
and
fleshly
consultings
,
that
your
Enemy
and
Adversary
in
your
own
hearts
would
infuse
into
your
minds
;
which
indeed
if
entertained
,
how
soon
may
they
who
are
strong
thereby
become
weake
,
and
they
who
witness
freedom
be
brought
again
into
bondage
,
and
be
again
caught
in
the
Serpents
snares
,
ho
is
exceeding
busie
within
,
as
well
as
without
seeking
daily
whom
he
may
devour
and
betray
of
the
simplicity
of
truth
,
and
draw
back
again
unto
himself
?
Dear
Lambs
,
you
are
in
measure
acquainted
with
his
subtilty
,
yea
,
blessed
be
the
Lord
who
hath
open'd
your
eyes
,
and
you
see
him
and
his
temptations
,
and
crafty
allurements
;
and
not
only
so
,
but
you
know
how
to
escape
them
,
so
as
not
to
be
overcome
by
t●em
,
but
resist
them
,
&
overcome
him
and
his
temptations
,
th●ough
the
strength
of
the
Lord
,
who
hath
called
and
redeemed
you
from
under
his
power
;
yet
not
withstanding
,
my
dear
Friends
,
let
me
say
unto
you
,
in
the
brotherly
love
,
and
tenderness
of
my
soul
,
watch
and
keep
close
unto
the
Lord
in
your
own
hearts
,
that
unto
him
you
may
be
kept
faithful
unto
the
very
end
;
who
will
make
way
for
your
deliverance
,
in
his
own
time
and
season
,
and
he
will
plead
your
righteous
cause
with
his
and
your
Adversaries
,
in
his
season
,
to
your
Joy
,
and
their
Sorrow
.
Wh●●efore
wholely
commit
your
cause
unto
the
Lord
your
God
,
who
watcheth
over
you
,
and
careth
for
you
,
and
will
never
leave
you
,
but
will
stand
by
you
,
and
help
you
in
the
needful
time
;
even
all
you
whose
trust
and
hope
is
in
him
alone
,
and
can
use
no
other
weapon
to
plead
your
cause
with
but
the
●●rd
of
his
mouth
.
So
dear
Lambs
,
in
the
pure
patience
and
long
suffering
of
the
Lamb
(
our
Captain
and
Leader
,
and
Example
,
that
meek
one
,
who
saith
,
love
Enemies
)
possess
your
souls
,
and
rest
in
stilness
and
peace
,
and
quietness
and
contentedness
in
the
Ark
of
safety
,
wh●ch
the
Lord
hath
prepared
for
his
Family
,
to
bear
them
up
above
the
floods
,
until
the
waters
abate
,
and
dry
land
appear
.
So
the
Lord
be
with
you
all
▪
and
bundle
you
up
together
in
his
innocent
love
which
thinketh
no
evil
;
therein
to
serve
him
with
your
whole
hearts
,
and
one
an
other
with
all
self-denial
;
none
to
strive
except
to
be
most
me●k●st
and
low●st
in
mind
,
so
that
you
all
way
be
tender
affectionated
one
towards
another
,
forgiving
and
f●rbearing
one
another
in
love
;
the
st●o●g
bear●ng
with
the
infirmities
of
the
weak
,
that
even
as
dear
Children
of
one
Father
,
you
may
dwell
together
in
peace
,
and
in
pure
unity
in
the
spirit
of
holiness
,
that
a
Joy
and
a
Comfort
you
may
●e
to
each
other
in
the
Lord
,
upon
whom
,
dear
Lambs
,
wait
●ogether
very
diligently
,
that
of
his
fulness
,
you
may
all
receive
,
who
is
ready
bountifully
to
minister
,
that
of
himself
unto
all
his
tender
Lambs
and
breathing
Babes
,
who
wait
upon
him
,
which
he
seeth
is
meet
for
them
even
to
their
daily
nourishment
joy
comfort
and
re●reshment
.
So
in
the
pure
bowels
,
and
tender
everlasting
love
of
the
tender
God
of
compassion
;
doth
my
soul
dearly
salute

of

Seeds

become
the
greatest

strongest
of

over-powering

that

Ah
Babes
,
therein
is
Peace
to
be
injoyed
,
which
is
Eternal
,
which
passeth
all
Understanding
;
therein
is
Joy
unspeakable
and
full
of
glory
to
be
injoyned
;
therein
is
Blessedness
,
which
is
everlasting
;
Happiness
,
which
is
endless
,
to
be
injoyed
,
out
of
it
there
is
none
;
Ah
Lambs
,
therein
is
Power
to
be
received
,
whereby
to
overcome
him
who
hath
the
power
of
Death
(
to
wit
the
Devil
)
and
to
break
his
Head
,
and
withstand
all
his
Temptations
,
and
strong
Assaults
,
and
various
Alurements
,
and
many
Inticements
;
and
power
therein
to
withstand
,
thresh
,
hammer
and
beat
down
all
those
Thoughts
,
Reasonings
and
Carnal
Fleshly
Consultations
,
which
he
(
your
greatest
Enemy
)
would
infuse
into
your
Minds
,
and
raise
up
in
your
Hearts
,
whereby
to
disturb
and
break
your
Peace
,
and
raise
Trouble
,
and
Tumults
,
and
Insurections
in
your
Minds
;
that
so
Faintness
and
Weariness
might
come
upon
you
,
and
he
(
your
subtile
Enemy
)
might
thereby
gain
upon
you
,
and
get
advantage
of
you
,
and
obtain
his
purpose
and
desire
,
who
indeed
(
as
a
roaring
,
raging
devouring
Lyon
)
very
eagerly
seeks
(
in
this
day
of
great
tryal
)
whom
he
may
Devour
,
and
draw
back
again
under
his
yoke
of
Bondage
,
Thraldom
,
and
Slavery
.
Wherefore
,
dear
tender
Lambs
,
in
the
Seed
,
the
Fold
,
out
of
which
he
is
shut
forever
,
in
which
he
hath
no
part
,
daily
dwell
,
and
continually
abide
;
then
out
of
the
paw
of
th●
Devourer
you
shall
be
kept
,
by
him
that
good
Shepherd
,
who
layeth
down
his
Life
for
his
Sheep
,
and
leaveth
them
not
when
the
Woolf
cometh
to
destroy
them
;
but
he
preserveth
his
Sheep
and
his
Lambs
,
and
hideth
them
as
in
the
hollow
of
his
hand
.
Ah
how
Tender
,
how
Careful
,
how
Pitiful
,
how
Merciful
,
how
Kind

how
Loving

how
Forbearing

how
Forgiving
,
how
Long-Suffering
,
how
Patient
,
how
Meek
,
how
Humble
and
Compassionate
,
is
the
Nature
of
the
tender
God
of
infi●ite
bowels

Ah
dear
Babes
,
let
me
say
unto
all
,
wait
to
feel
and
witness
the
nature
of
Emanuel
,
even
the
meek
Life
of
Jesus
to
rule
and
dwell
in
you
daily
,
and
you
to
dwell
and
live
daily
in
it
.
Ah
his
pure
leaven
of
Life
Eternal
,
oh
how
doth
it
work
out
the
leaven
of
Death
and
Darkness
,
Malice
and
Enmity
,
and
purgeth
out
every
hard
thought
,
and
all
evil
surmisings
,
evil
back-bitings
and
whisperings
(
which
doth
proceed
from
the
old
leaven
,
and
are
the
fruits
of
that
corrupt
tree
which
is
a●cursed
by
the
Lord
,
and
is
to
be
hewen
down
,
and
with
all
its
fruits
cast
into
the
fire
forever
to
be
consumed
)
and
pu●te●●
out
the
Eye
which
would
be
watching
for
Evil
,
and
for
the
halting
of
others
,
and
to
spie
out
their
weakness
,
and
to
tel●
it
abroad
to
their
shame
;
oh
how
doth
it
oppose
and
hammer
down
that
mind
that
would
be
great
,
and
esteemed
of
by
men
,
and
would
exercise
Lordship
over
others
.
Oh
how
doth
it
baptize
self
into
the
Death
,
and
b●ing
down
the
Haughty
to
the
Dust
,
and
boweth
down
the
Lofty
,

ra●seth
up

bringeth
forth
a
Birth
,
which
striveth
not
fo●
mastery

except
to
be
most
meekest

lowest
in
Heart

Mind
;

to
abound
in
Pity

in
Love

in
Tenderness

in

of
Compassion

in
Patience
,
in
Gentleness
,
in

in

,
and
in
Brotherly
Kindness
,
yea
in
all
the
vertuous
Fruits
of
the
nature
of
him
who
is
meek
and
low
in
Heart
,
who
said
,
love
Enemies
;
this
Birth
hath
a
hand
ready
to
stretch
forth
unto
the
backward
,
to
draw
them
forwards
;
it
hath
an
arm
ready
to
help
to
hold
up
the
halting
,
and
bosom
open
to
carry
the
weak
and
faint
ones
in
;
oh
it
would
,
I
know
,
be
a
help
to
all
who
stand
in
need
of
help
,
it
would
not
that
any
should
be
left
behind
the
Camp
,
who
are
willing
to
press
forwards
,
although
they
may
linger
behind
,
by
reason
of
their
Halting
and
Lameness
;
oh
how
hath
it
a
garment
ready
to
cover
an
others
weakness
,
it
never
overchargeth
any
,
it
judgeth
not
any
thing
before
the
time
appointed
,
it
is
not
Hasty
nor
Rash
,
but
Patient
and
Gentle
,
and
it
hath
a
convincing
restoring
vertu●
with
it
in
all
it
doth
,
so
that
it
both
Wounds
and
Heals
,
Kill
and
maks
a
Live
,
brings
down
and
raiseth
up
,
lay
desolate
,
build
and
restore
,
it
is
tender
and
gentle
,
it
breaks
not
the
bruised
Reed
,
neither
doth
it
quench
the
smoaking
Flax
,
it
never
renders
Evil
for
Evil
,
but
overcomes
the
Evil
with
Good
;
its
Patience
overcomes
Fury
,
its
Love
quencheth
Enmity
,
its
Gentleness
overcomes
Rashness
,
and
its
Meekness
overcomes
Haughtiness
;
and
in
all
it
Suffers
it
seeketh
no
Revenge
,
but
beareth
all
things
Patiently
;
committing
its
Cause
unto
him
who
judgeth
Rightly
;
it
loveth
Enemies
,
it
beareth
love
&
good-will
unto
all
men

yet
it
hath
no
uni●y
with
any
Uncleanness
,
nor
fellowship
with
the
unfruitful
works
of
Darkness
in
any
,
but
rather
reproves
them
.
This
is
not
the
Birth
born
of
Flesh
,
nor
of
Blood
,
nor
of
the
will
of
man
,
but
the
Birth
born
of
God
,
and
this
Birth
shall
out-live
all
false
Births
and
likenesses
,
and
unto
it
must
all
bow
an●
become
subject
,
this
Birth
God
will
crown
with
Honour
and
Renown
,
and
beautifie
with
Glory
and
Praise
;
and
although
it
hath
been
troden
under
foot
and
despised
by
other
false
Births
,
yet
unto
it
they
must
all
bow
,
and
throw
down
their
Crowns
at
thy
feet

oh
Zion

Ah
the
Lord
,
thy
Husband

thy
Maker

the
God
of
Host

hath
determined
that
the
days
of
thy
Mourning
shall
pass
away

the
night
of
thy
Sorrow
shall
for
ever
vanish
,
and
thou
shalt
no
more
be
termed
Desolate

Forsaken
;
oh
thy
Winter
shall
be
over

gone
,
and
thy
Summer
shall
come
,
and
thy
Fruitfulness
shall
appear
;
Oh
Zion
,
thou
shalt
appear
as
a
Royal
Diadim
in
the
hand
of
the
Lord
,
and
as
a
Crown
of
Glory
in
the
hand
of
thy
God
;
who
will
make
thee
the
Beauty
of
Nations
,
the
Joy
of
Kingdoms
,
yea
the
Glory
of
the
whole
Earth
,
and
a
Praise
therein
forever
,
amen
saith
my
soul
.
Oh
hasten
it
,
hasten
it
,
Lord
God
Almighty
,
that
so
the
Mourners
in
thy
Zion
may
be
Comforted
,
and
the
Hated
be
made
right
glad
;
that
so
even
her
waste
places
may
Rejoyce
,
and
her
Desarts
blosom
as
a
Rose
;
that
her
Wilderness
may
become
as
the
Garden
of
Eden
,
and
her
Desarts
as
the
Garden
of
the
Lord
;
that
so
Joy
and
Gladness
may
alone
be
found
in
her
,
Thanksgiving
and
the
voice
of
Melody
;
that
so
even
Water
may
come
forth
of
the
Wilderness
,
and
spring
in
the
Desart
;
that
the
parched
Ground
may
even
become
a
Pool
,
and
dry
Heaths
streams
of
Water
.
Ah
,
when
the
Lord
hath
wholly
gathered
together
in
one
the
disperced
of
Judah
,
and
hath
brought
into
one
,
the
scattered
of
Israel
,
and
hath
throughly
returned
the
Captivity
of
his
People
;
oh
then
surely
Jacob
shall
rejoyce
,
and
Israel
be
right
glad
,
and
glory
in
his
God
,
who
is
blessed
forever
and
evermore
.
And
so
,
dearly
beloved
Friends
,
my
soul
hath
daily
a
remembrance
of
you
in
and
unto
the
Lord
,
unto

very
dearly
desiring

made
partakers
,
and
thereunto
have
born
witness
,
in
doing
and
suffering
for
the

may
by
him
be
kept
faithful
unto
him

even
unto
the
very
end
;
that
so
the
Testimony
which
he
hath
given
you
to
bear
for
his
Name
&
Truth
(
in
this
his
day
of
sifting
,
winowing
,
purging
,
purifying
,
and
of
separating
the
Chaff
from
the
Wheat
,
and
of
making
up
his
pretious
Jewels
,
and
of
manifesting
the
approved
in
his
sight
)
you
may
through
the
strength

mighty
power
of
him
the
mighty
God
(
who
hath
c●lled
you
and
raised
you
up
to
war
against
Babylon
,
and
no
more
to
touch
,
but
to
bear
witness
against
the
unclean
thing
)
be
inabled
to
finish
your
Testimony
for
him
(
although
it
be
with

even
to
the
Praise

William
Bennit
Dear
Friend
,
IN
that
which
is
Eternal
and
unchangable
,
doth
the
unfeigned
Salutation
and
tender
Love
of
my
Soul
extend
towards
thee
,
who
art
oft
in
the
remembrance
of
my
Soul
,
which
is
in
some
measure
sensible
of
the
many
Troubles
,
Crosses
and
Tryals
,
which
thou
hast
been
in
,
and
now
art
exercised
with
;
and
truly
,
dear
Heart
,
my
soul
desireth
that
th●
Lord
may
inable
thee
to
wade
through
them
all
,
in
the
pure
Patience
and
true
Contentedness
,
and
that
thou
mayst
find
the
strong
arm
of
Gods
mighty
power
in
the
beating
down
,
&
keeping
●nder
that
part
,
which
would
complain
and
murmur
against
the
Lord
,
and
count
him
a
hard
Master
,
and
freet
its
self
because
the
Wicked
Flourish
,
and
the
Ungodly
spread
themselves
like
a
green
●ay-Tree
,
and
the
workers
of
Iniquity
are
set
up
,
●n●●●e
P●oud
Lord
it
over
the
Meek
of
the
Earth
,
and
●●ea●
upon
the
Righteous
as
Di●t
in
the
Streets
,
&
Killed
all
the
day
〈◊〉
a●d
Oppressed
like
a
Cart
with
Sheaves
;
I
say
needful
it
is
to
feel
that
part
(
which
would
freet
it self
because
of
th●se
things
)
chained
down
by
the
Meek
,
Lowly
,
Lamb
like
,
Patient
,
Peaceable
Spirit
of
the
patient
,
pitiful
,
long-suffe●ing
God
of
Forbearance
and
Mercy
;
and
to
feel
it
curting
and
beating
all
Prejudice
and
Enmity
,
that
would
be
springing
up
from
the
murmuring
fretting
part
,
against
those
who
are
●●struments
of
Iniquity
,
and
Servants
to
that
Spirit
,
that
Persecutes
and
Oppress
the
Innocent
,
and
behold
this
Spirit
of
meekness
keeps
in
coolness
,
gentleness
and
patience
,
and
gi●●●h
dominion
over
that
Spirit
which
in
haste
(
yet
as
it
th●n●s
in
a
Zeal
for
God
)
crys
for
Fire
to
come
down
from
Heav●n
to
devour
those
who
are
Instruments
of
Cruelty
,
Iniquity
,
and
Oppression
;
and
indeed
this
Spirit
of
Love
inableth
to
love
Enemies
,
to
Bless
and
Curse
not
,
and
seeks
no
Revenge
,
but
makes
willing
to
leave
all
to
the
Lord
,
unto
whom
,
dear
Heart
,
let
us
commit
our
Cause
,
and
sure
I
am
,
he
will
plead
it
with
his
and
our
Enemies
,
in
his
own
time
even
to
their
Destruction
and
Calamity
,
and
to
our
Joy
and
Comfort
in
the
end
;
in
the
mean
while
,
the
Lord
keep
us
in
contentedness
,
and
in
dominion
over
that
Spirit
that
would
limit
God
to
mans
time
,
and
counteth
that
God
is
slack
concerning
his
Promise
,
who
indeed
is
not
slack
,
as
that
Siprit
counts
slackness
,
but
is
a
God
long
suffering
,
desiring
not
the
Death
nor
Destruction
of
a
Sinner
,
but
that
rather
he
may
repent
and
Live
Oh
that
all
those
that
profess
his
Name
may
be
like-minded
with
him
,
according
to
our
measures
,
and
growth
in
him
the
Living
God
,
who
is
blessed
forevermore
.
My
dear
tender
hearted
Friend
,
my
Soul
doth
likewise
desire
fervently
that
thee
and
I
,
and
all
the
rest
of
our
heavenly
Fathers
Family
,
may
be
kept
close
unto
the
measure
of
the
free
grace
and
love
of
the
Lord
God
in
our
own
hearts
,
that
by
it
we
may
continually
be
kep●
in
the
lowly
fear
,
and
pure
aw
of
him
,
who
hath
called
us
out
of
Darkness
into
his
marvelous
Light
,
wherein
let
us
watch
carefully
over
our
Thoughts
,
Words
and
Works
,
lest
in
haste
,
through
carelesness
,
for
want
of
watchfulness
,
we
should
speak
or
do
any
thing
that
may
grieve
the
holy
Seed
,
and
wound
the
Just
one
in
our selves
,
and
bring
a
burden
and
load
upon
our
own
Souls
;
wherefore
dear
Heart
,
I
cannot
but
desire
,
that
I
with
thee
,
and
all
who
love
Righteousness
,
may
be
kept
watchful
in
the
●●wly
Fear
,
close
unto
the
grace
that
keeps
humble
,
out
of
the
many
words
,
in
the
fewness
of
words
,
that
so
in
sweet
stilness
,
peace
and
quietness
we
may
possess
our
sou●●
,
and
injoy
the
sweet
incomes
of
the
sweet
Love
,
and
sweet
pure
refreshing
streams
of
the
Fountain
of
Life
according
to
our
measures
;
that
so
even
in
the
midst
of
our
Tryals
and
Sufferings
,
our
he●rts
may
be
made
glad
in
the
Lord
,
and
our
souls
may
rejoyce
in
him
over
all
the
Rage
and
Cruelty
of
the
Wicked
;
that
we
may
keep
our
standing
on
the
Rock
,
against
which
Gog
and
Magog
,
and
the
whole
Host
of
the
powers
of
Darkness
is
not
able
to
prevail
;
and
herein
the
Lord
keep
us
,
saith
my
soul
,
for
evermore
.
So
dear
Heart
,
I
leave
thee
unto
the
Lord
,
in
whom
my
Love
is
dear
unto
thee
,
and
my
Soul
simpathize
with
thee
in
thy
Tryals
and
Sufferings
,
and
desire
the
Lord
may
bear
thee
up
above
them
all
,
in
the
bosom
of
his
Love
and
Patience
,
and
minister
daily
unto
thee
what
he
knoweth
is
meet
for
thee
,
and
keep
thee
in
a
contentedness
with
his
heavenly
will
,
that
so
thou
mayst
say
with
thy
whole
heart
,
Lord
,
not
my
will
,
but
thy
will
be
done
,
and
submitted
unto
in
all
things
,
whose
will
is
our
Sanctification
.
So
,
dear
tender
Heart
,
in
the
innocent
Love
which
drew
me
forth
to
write
these
lines
unto
thee
,
I
rest
and
remain
thy
dear
Friend
in
the
Truth
.

To
the
Magistrates
of
Edmonds-Bury
.
Friends
,
I
hope
your
Nobillity
and
Moderation
will
be
so
far
made
manifest
,
as
to
read
over
these
following
Lines
with
Patience
;
and
I
desire
you
may
Seriously
consider
of
them
,
and
Sollidly
to
weigh
them
in
that
equall
Ballance
,
the
Light
of
Christ
in
your
Consciences
,
before
you
Judge
of
them
.
WE
whom
the
World
in
scorn
call
Quakers
,
are
a
People
that
liveth
in
the
pure
fear
of
the
Lord
God
,
and
without
boasting
we
can
truly
say
,
we
are
a
People
who
are
led
and
guided
by
a
peaceable
Principle
of
Love
,
which
we
have
received
of
God
,
who
is
the
Fountain
of
Love
,
by
which
Principle
of
Love
we
are
made
to
live
peaceable
with
all
men
,
as
much
as
in
us
lies
,
and
fervenly
to
desire
and
seek
the
good
and
welfare
of
all
People
,
even
from
him
who
sits
upon
the
earthly
Throne
,
unto
the
most
Inferior
in
the
Kingdom
,
and
by
this
Principle
of
Love
in
our
own
hearts
,
which
is
of
God
,
we
are
made
to
bear
Love
and
Good
will
towards
all
people
,
and
by
it
we
are
taught
to
loy
Enemies
,
to
Bless
and
Curse
not
,
to
Pray
for
them
who
De
spitefully
useth
us
,
and
to
do
Good
to
them
that
Beateth
us
▪
and
not
in
the
least
to
render
Evil
for
Evil
,
but
endeavour
to
,
overcome
(
in
our selves
and
others
)
Evil
with
Good
,
and
by
it
we
are
preserved
from
joyning
with
the
spirit
of
Envy
,
and
from
being
led
by
the
spirit
of
Revenge
,
which
ruleth
in
many
,
and
leadeth
into
secret
Plottings
,
and
evil
Contrivances
,
by
way
of
Conspiring
to
raise
Tumult
and
Insurrection
,
which
spirit
(
with
all
its
fruits
)
we
deny
and
judge
,
and
all
those
who
are
led
by
it
to
Contrive
and
Plot
against
any
,
or
to
seek
the
Destruction
of
any
people
,
though
our
Enemies
;
such
we
disown
,
and
their
actions
we
defie
,
the
Lord
is
our
witness
.
And
by
the
Principle
of
Love
in
our
hearts
,
are
our
Consciences
made
very
tender
to
God-ward
,
insomuch
as
that
we
would
not
willingly
and
knowingly
sin
against
him
,
and
are
willing
rather
to
suffer
the
loss
of
all
External
things
,
yea
even
Life
and
all
,
then
to
break
our
peace
with
God
,
which
we
value
more
then
ten
thousand
Worlds
;
and
because
we
endeavour
(
in
the
strength
and
power
of
the
principle
of
love
in
our
hearts
)
to
keep
our
Consciences
void
of
offence
towards
God
;
and
because
we
dare
not
do
those
things
(
though
they
be
set
up
by
men
,
and
tollerated
and
compelled
to
be
done
by
a
Law
)
which
we
are
perswaded
by
the
unerring
spirit
of
Truth
we
ought
not
to
do
,
neither
joyn
with
any
therein
;
and
because
we
dare
not
forbear
doing
those
things
(
though
prohibited
by
the
Laws
of
men
there
from
)
which
we
are
perswaded
by
the
spirit
of
Truth
is
our
duty
(
towards
God
)
to
do
and
perform
;
therefore
are
we
a
suffering
People
this
day
,
and
for
no
other
Cause
,
the
Lord
is
our
witness
to
the
truth
hereof
.
And
ever
since
the
Lord
our
dear
and
tender
God
(
who
alone
hath
been
,
and
now
is
our
Helper
,
Strength
and
Refuge
,
and
hath
stood
by
us
,
and
supported
,
and
preserved
us
,
or
else
we
had
not
been
a
People
at
this
day
)
did
raise
us
up
to
be
a
People
,
for
to
bear
witness
to
his
Way
and
Truth
(
and
against
the
false
Ways
,
evil
Works
,
false
Worships
,
Idolatry
,
Sin
and
Wickedness
of
the
World
)
we
have
been
a
suffering
People
,
and
all
along
we
have
suffered
by
every
Power
that
hath
come
up
to
Rule
,
and
all
along
we
have
suffered
for
only
our
Consciences
towards
God
;
&
if
our
Enemies
have
had
no
Law
in
force
against
us
,
neither
could
find
any
thing
on
our
parts
,
whereby
they
might
take
a
just
occasion
against
us
;
then
have
they
(
as
Daniel's
Persecutors
did
against
him
,
who
sought
his
Destruction
without
a
Cause
given
them
by
him
)
even
made
Laws
on
purpose
to
Insnare
us
,
and
Trappan
us
concerning
our
Conscience
towards
God
,
for
which
we
did
suffer
by
the
other
Rulers
,
even
many
ways
,
viz.
by
Stocking
,
Stoning
,
cruel
Whipping
,
Rayling
,
Reviling
and
cruel
Abuses
;
even
Imprisonment
until
Death
,
and
spoyling
of
Goods
in
a
more
abundant
manner
then
I
can
relate
;
and
all
hath
been
for
our
Consciences
to
God
,
all
which
we
have
born
,
and
waded
through
in
Patience
,
through
the
strength
of
the
upholding
merciful
Arm
of
our
God
,
and
by
him
have
been
kept
from
seeking
Revenge
upon
our
Enemies
,
but
have
committed
our
Cause
to
God
,
who
Judgeth
Righteously
,
and
Justifieth
those
whom
men
Condemn
,
unto
whom
alone
Vengence
belongs
,
and
he
will
repay
it
,
who
will
render
unto
man
according
to
his
Works
.
And
even
at
this
day
,
our
Sufferings
are
greater
then
before
,
and
now
are
we
even
as
Sheep
appointed
for
the
Slaughter
▪
and
all
is
because
we
endeavour
to
keep
our
Consciences
void
of
offence
towards
God
;
and
because
we
dare
not
joyn
with
that
Idolatrous
Worship
which
God
abhors
,
but
must
,
as
moved
of
the
Lord
,
rather
bear
Testimony
against
Idolatrous
Worships
and
Worshippers
,
whatever
we
suffer
.
And
because
we
dare
not
Sware
at
all
,
knowing
if
we
should
Swear
at
all
,
we
should
then
transgress
the
Commands
of
Christ
,
Matthew
Chaper

And
because
we
follow
the
practices
of
the
Primitive
Christians
,
and
dear
not
forsake
the
Assembling
of
our selves
together
,
but
must
as
we
are
taught
of
the
Lord
meet
together
,
in
the
pure
fear
and
dread
of
the
Name
of
the
Almighty
God
,
even
for
no
other
end
(
the
Lord
who
knoweth
the
secrets
of
all
hearts
is
our
witness
)
but
to
Wait
upon
the
Lord
,
and
to
Pray
to
the
Lord
,
and
to
Build
up
,
Strengthen
and
Edifie
one
another
in
the
Lord
,
and
to
Serve
and
Worship
God
in
Spirit
and
in
Truth
,
wherein
God
,
who
is
a
Spirit
,
is
only
Worshipped
aright
,
by
his
Spirituallized
people
,
who
are
born
of
the
Spirit
,
and
guided
and
led
by
the
Spirit
of
Truth
into
all
Truth
.
And
it
is
not
in
Rebellion
and
Contempt
to
King
Charles
and
his
Laws
,
that
we
meet
together
to
worship
God
,
neither
do
we
do
it
in
a
Cross
,
Stubborn
,
Self-will
,
as
by
some
we
are
charged
,
the
Lord
is
our
witness
,
but
even
in
a
Cross
to
our
own
wills
,
and
in
Obedience
to
the
will
of
God
;
where
fore
we
have
peace
in
the
Lord
,
for
whose
sake
we
suffer
and
stand
justified
in
the
sight
of
God
,
though
by
Men
and
their
Laws
counted
Transgressors
.
Now
Friends
,
as
your
Moderation
in
measure
hath
appeared
(
in
this
day
of
hot
Persecution
and
hath
been
manifested
heretofore
,
towards
the
Lords
tender
Conscientious
people
in
this
Town
,
which
I
believe
the
Lord
hath
taken
notice
of
,
who
hath
regard
unto
those
who
have
respect
to
his
people
;
and
truly
it
is
my
Souls
desire
,
even
for
your
own
good
,
that
your
Moderation
towards
the
people
of
God
called
Quakers
,
or
any
other
people
whose
Consciences
are
tender
to
God-ward
,
may
continue
still
and
increase
more
and
more
,
so
as
that
ye
might
not
in
the
lest
degree
have
a
hand
any
more
in
the
Sufferings
of
the
Innocent
,
but
might
rather
chuse
,
as
meek
Moses
did
,
to
suffer
Affliction
with
the
Suffering
,
Abused
,
Tribulated
,
Afflicted
People
of
God
,
then
to
be
found
Prosecutors
of
any
unjust
Law
against
them
;
for
indeed
,
happy
(
in
that
particular
)
is
the
man
that
hath
no
hand
in
the
sufferings
of
the
Lords
people
,
for
sure
I
am
the
Lord
God
hath
regard
unto
his
people
,
though
disregarded
by
such
as
know
not
God
nor
his
People
;
and
though
Hated
and
Persecuted
by
the
World
,
yet
Loved
of
the
Lord
,
and
very
dear
unto
him
;
and
though
Contemptible
,
Ridiculous
and
Absurd
in
the
eyes
of
the
wisemen
of
this
World
,
yet
Beautiful
,
Comely
,
Delectable
and
Precious
in
the
eyes
of
the
Lord
;
and
what
evil
any
do
to
them
because
of
their
Consciences
towards
God
,
the
Lord
takes
it
as
done
unto
himself
;
and
if
one
day
it
shall
be
said
to
those
who
did
not
Feed
,
Cloth
and
Visit
the
Lords
tender
ones
in
Prison
,
Go
ye
Cursed
into
Hell
Fire
,
prepared
for
the
Devil
and
his
Angels
;
then
surely
sad
will
be
the
Sentence
of
those
who
(
through
their
Cruelty
)
go
about
to
deprive
them
of
Food
and
Raiment
,
and
instead
of
visiting
them
in
Prison
,
doth
unjustly
cast
them
into
Prison
,
and
hinder
them
that
would
visit
them
.
Oh
surely
,
the
Lord
God
of
Pity
,
of
Mercy
,
of
Compassion
,
and
endless
Love
,
hath
seen
the
sufferings
of
his
People
in
this
Nation
;
and
hath
taken
Cognizance
of
their
sore
Afflictions
,
and
Tribulations
,
Burdens
,
and
grievous
Oppressions
,
under
which
they
have
long
Groaned
,
whose
Groans
are
come
up
before
the
Throne
of
the
most
high
,
and
is
entred
into
the
Ears
of
their
Compassionate
God
,
and
he
is
moved
with
infinite
bowels
of
Love
towards
his
suffering
Seed
,
and
he
will
plead
the
Cause
of
his
own
Elect
which
have
long
Cried
unto
him
;
whose
Cries
he
the
Living
God
hath
heard
,
whose
Cries
he
the
Almighty
God
will
answer
,
and
will
revenge
their
Cause
upon
the
head
of
their
Persecutors
,
and
will
Oppress
the
Oppressors
,
and
Devour
the
Devourers
of
his
People
,
even
as
Stubble
before
the
Fire
fully
dry
;
and
they
shall
not
be
able
to
escape
the
stroke
of
his
Righteous
Judgement
,
which
he
hath
now
begun
to
make
manifest
in
the
Earth
,
that
the
Inhabitants
thereof
might
learn
Righteousness
;
and
the
Beesom
of
his
Wrath
is
cleansing
the
Land
of
Evil
Doers
;
and
many
of
those
who
desired
,
and
indeavoured
,
to
have
Banished
the
peoof
the
Lord
from
their
native
Country
and
lawful
Habitations
;
such
the
Lord
hath
●anished
from
their
Houses
,
and
they
have
fled
from
their
Habitations
,
and
run
from
his
Righteous
Judgements
,
but
whether
can
man
fly
to
hide
himself
from
the
Lord
;
and
so
that
measure
they
meted
out
to
others
,
is
moted
to
them
again
,
and
this
is
just
with
the
Lord
,
who
is
equal
in
all
his
Doings
,
and
just
in
all
his
Ways
,
and
he
will
not
be
mocked
by
any
;
but
such
as
People
Sow
,
such
must
they
Reap
;
and
according
to
their
Deeds
,
they
must
receive
a
reward
.
Wherefore
Friends
,
so
far
as
ye
have
a
hand
in
the
Sufferings
of
the
Innocent
,
you
have
cause
to
Repent
thereof
,
and
to
ease
the
Burdened
,
and
to
set
the
Imprisoned
and
the
Oppressed
Free
;
and
as
you
tender
and
respect
the
good
of
your
Souls
,
and
desire
to
be
tendered
and
respected
by
the
Lord
,
so
tender
the
Lords
tender
people
,
and
do
not
in
any
wise
usurp
authority
over
their
Consciences
,
for
that
is
Christs
seat
,
and
the
Magistrates
Sword
is
not
to
rule
there
,
but
only
Christ
the
power
of
God
,
who
maketh
the
Conscience
,
he
alone
is
to
rule
in
and
over
the
Conscience
;
and
Friends
to
the
Light
in
your
own
Consciences
,
come
and
be
obedient
thereunto
,
and
it
will
cause
you
to
do
unto
all
men
as
you
would
be
done
unto
,
and
in
the
Light
you
must
come
to
believe
,
hearked
to
it
,
follow
and
obey
it
,
before
your
Souls
can
injoy
true
peace
with
the
Lord
;
and
by
it
be
inabled
to
deny
all
Ungodliness
and
Worldly
Lust
;
and
by
it
to
be
taught
to
Live
Soberly
,
Righteously
and
Godly
in
this
present
World
;
and
to
lay
your
Sword
upon
evil
doers
,
and
to
be
a
praise
to
them
that
do
well
;
and
rather
to
tolerate
,
such
and
to
defend
them
in
the
exercise
of
their
Consciences
towards
God
,
in
meeting
together
in
his
pure
fear
,
to
Serve
and
Worship
him
,
then
to
suppress
them
:
And
to
exercise
your
power
in
breaking
up
their
meetings
,
who
meet
to
Drink
,
Swear
,
Rant
,
Tear
and
Devour
the
good
Creatures
of
God
upon
their
filthy
ungodly
Lust
,
even
to
the
great
dishonour
of
the
Lord
,
and
to
the
grieving
of
his
holy
righteous
Spirit
;
suppress
such
,
for
that
is
the
Magistrates
work
;
but
as
for
those
who
feareth
the
Lord
,
and
liveth
Peaceably
and
Honestly
with
all
men
,
let
such
have
free
liberty
to
serve
the
Lord
in
his
own
Way
,
and
worship
him
in
his
own
Spirit
,
and
not
to
be
compelled
to
a
Dead
,
Dark
,
Invented
,
Superstitious
Worship
which
is
not
of
God
;
and
then
will
the
blessings
of
the
Lord
my
God
,
be
powered
down
upon
you
,
and
a
good
savour
ye
will
be
unto
those
that
fear
the
Lord
,
from
whom
ye
will
be
worthy
of
double
Honour
.
And
Friends
,
I
understand
that
it
is
the
desire
,
if
not
the
intent
of
some
of
ye
Rulers
in
this
Town
,
to
proceed
against
me
unto
Banishment
,
who
am
an
innocent
man
and
have
done
you
no
wrong
,
neither
have
I
committed
any
thing
against
you
,
or
any
just
Law
worthy
of
Bounds
,
much
less
of
B●nishment
;
neither
have
I
,
in
this
County
,
been
thrice
Convicted
by
your
Law
,
as
an
offender
;
and
I
would
know
whether
those
Records
made
by
Justices
,
who
are
only
Commissionated
,
for
Norfolk
,
be
good
evidence
in
Suffolk
,
where
those
Justices
themselves
have
no
power
,
seeing
the
Law
saith
,
that
all
offences
(
other
then
Treason
)
shall
be
Inquired
,
Heard
and
Determined
in
the
Shire
,
Division
,
Limit
and
Liberty
where
such
offences
happen
,
as
was
Inacted
in
the
third
year
of
King
James
,
see
Chapter
the
fourth
.
Well
I
am
not
careful
in
this
matter
,
touching
my
own
particular
,
only
I
would
not
have
you
hasty
in
what
you
intend
towards
me
,
but
seriously
to
weigh
the
matter
,
in
that
equal
balance
,
the
Word
of
God
;
and
take
heed
what
you
do
,
and
hurt
not
your
own
Souls
,
and
sin
not
against
the
Lord
,
&
then
sure
I
am
you
cannot
hurt
me
;
Wherefore
be
wise
,
oh
ye
Rulers
,
and
be
instructed
ye
Judges
of
the
People
;
touch
not
the
Lords
Anointed
,
neither
do
his
Prophets
any
harm
;
and
let
not
Envy
and
Prejudice
blind
your
Minds
,
nor
cloud
the
nobility
of
your
Understandings
,
and
take
heed
of
ingaging
the
Lord
more
and
more
against
you
and
your
Town
;
consider
the
Lord
hath
hitherto
spared
you
and
your
Town
,
from
the
Wo
,
Sorrow
,
Misery
,
Distress
,
and
Calamity
which
is
come
upon
many
other
places
;
and
if
you
desire
the
Lord
should
still
spare
you
and
your
Town
,
then
do
you
spare
those
who
fear
the
Lord
in
your
Town
,
and
free
them
from
their
causeless
Imprisonments
,
and
do
not
Afflict
them
,
lest
thereby
you
hasten
the
just
Judgements
of
the
Lord
God
upon
you
and
your
Town
,
which
is
even
at
hand
.
Well
,
my
soul
in
the
Lord
is
at
rest
and
in
quietness
,
free
from
fearing
the
threatnings
of
men
,
who
are
not
able
to
Banish
me
from
the
presence
of
my
God
,
who
is
with
me
,
and
with
all
who
feareth
his
Name
,
who
will
work
the
deliverance
of
his
people
from
their
Sufferings
,
Burdens
and
grievous
Oppressions
in
his
own
time
and
season
,
and
will
so
far
preserve
them
as
that
they
shall
be
a
People
when
the
Egyptians
shall
he
dead
upon
the
Sea-shore
of
his
Righteous
Judgments
;
the
Lord
hath
spoken
it
,
in
whom
is
my
Joy
and
Peace
,
Refreshment
and
Comfort
in
the
midst
of
my
Sufferings
,
who
will
never
leave
me
,
if
I
leave
not
him
,
for
whose
Cause
(
for
which
I
now
suffer
by
you
)
I
count
not
my
Life
too
dear
to
part
with
,
for
the
Testimony
of
my
God
,
in
whom
is
my
Confidence
,
Trust
and
Hope
,
who
hath
formed
me
for
his
praise
,
whose
I
am
,
&
unto
you
my
Conscience
I
have
cleared
,
and
whether
ye
will
hear
or
forbear
I
am
clear
of
your
Blood
,
who
am
a
Friend
to
your
Souls
and
Bodies
,
and
desire
the
welfare
of
both
,
and
am
one
who
loveth
righteous
Government
and
Governours
,
who
are
for
the
punishment
of
evil
doers
and
for
the
praise
of
them
that
do
well
;
and
such
Rulers
I
truly
honour
in
my
heart
,
though
not
with
the
vain
custom
of
the
Hat
,
neither
with
the
deceitful
flattering
titles
of
this
World
.
This
is
from
a
true
lover
of
your
Souls
,
who
des●reth
your
everlasting
welfare
and
tranquility
in
the
Lord
,
who
is
a
Sufferer
by
you
,
but
not
for
evil
doing
,
but
for
doing
well
;
the
Lord
is
his
witness
that
this
is
true
,
whose
Servant
he
is
,
whatever
he
be
(
by
you
or
any
)
accounted
of

To
Friends
of
Truth
in
the
Town
of
Colehester
Greeting
.
DEarly
beloved
Friends
and
Brethren
,
who
have
tasted
of
the
love
and
goodness
●f
the
Lord
,
and
of
the
sweetness
and
pretiousness
of
his
unchangable
Truth
,
the
virtuous
workings
and
powerful
opperations
whereof
you
have
felt
in
your
hearts
,
whereby
you
witness
and
experience
in
measure
your
Souls
set
at
liberty
from
the
bondage
of
Sin
and
Corruption
,
to
serve
the
living
God
in
holiness
of
Life
,
to
the
praise
of
your
God
,
who
hath
raised
you
out
of
the
dust
by
his
Power
,
and
quickned
you
by
his
Life
,
and
formed
you
by
his
own
Wisdom
,
and
given
you
his
good
Spirit
to
guide
and
lead
you
,
teach
and
counsel
you
,
comfort
and
refresh
you
,
oh
,
he
hath
given
you
a
taste
of
the
Word
of
Life
,
and
power
of
the
World
to
come
;
oh
,
he
hath
living
Witnesses
of
his
Name
and
Truth
whereof
you
are
made
partakers
,
and
that
which
you
have
seen
and
known
,
felt
and
tasted
of
,
the
same
you
have
through
the
strength
of
the
Lord
born
Testimony
unto
,
even
by
Word
,
by
Deed
,
by
Life
and
Conversation
,
and
through
great
Sufferings
,
manifold
Tribulations
and
Afflictions
,
all
which
the
Lord
your
tender
God
hath
inabled
you
to
wade
through
,
and
hath
kept
you
from
fainting
unto
this
day
;
who
hath
been
with
you
in
six
Troubles
,
and
in
the
seventh
,
dear
Babes
,
he
hath
not
left
you
,
but
in
all
your
Afflictions
for
his
Name-sake
he
hath
been
afflicted
with
you
,
and
the
Angel
of
his
presence
hath
been
your
defence
on
the
right
hand
and
on
the
left
;
oh
,
how
hath
he
carried
you
in
his
tender
Bosome
,
and
born
you
up
in
his
Arms
,
and
lead
you
gently
when
you
were
Weak
,
Young
and
Tender
,
and
made
the
Crooked
strait
,
and
the
Rough
smooth
before
you
,
and
thrown
down
many
a
high
Mountain
before
you
,
and
removed
many
a
lofty
Hill
out
of
your
way
;
who
hath
made
a
way
for
you
in
the
Wilderness
,
and
a
path
through
many
a
Thickit
,
and
hath
made
the
hard
things
easie
;
he
hath
been
a
Shelter
to
you
from
the
Heat
,
and
a
Refuge
to
you
from
the
Storm
,
and
many
a
time
hath
been
unto
your
Souls
as
the
shadow
of
a
Rook
in
a
weary
Land
;
who
hath
given
you
Bread
when
you
were
Hungry
,
and
Water
to
satisfie
your
Thirst
;
who
Strengthned
you
when
you
were
Weak
,
and
Inriched
you
when
you
were
Poor
;
who
Healed
you
when
you
were
Wounded
,
and
Bound
you
up
when
you
were
broken
to
Pieces
;
who
Comforted
you
in
the
midst
of
Sorrow
,
and
hath
Refreshed
you
when
you
have
been
heavy
hearted
,
and
lifted
up
your
heads
when
they
were
bowed
down
because
of
the
Oppression
of
your
Enemies
:
Oh
,
how
exceeding
large
is
the
love
of
the
Lord
your
tender
compassionate
God
of
endless
bowels
of
tenderness
;
oh
,
your
own
experience
of
his
Love
,
his
Mercy
,
his
Pity
,
his
Compassion
,
his
Goodness
,
his
Kindness
and
his
Tender
Fatherly
Care
and
Dealings
towards
you
is
much
larger
then
what
I
can
demonstrate
with
words
;
oh
,
how
can
you
then
but
still
trust
in
his
Name
,
rely
upon
his
Arm
,
and
depend
upon
his
saving
Health
,
and
hope
in
his
tender
Bowels
,
who
is
the
same
yesterday
to
day
and
for
evermore
;
who
hath
been
with
you
when
Trouble
hath
compassed
you
round
,
to
keep
you
from
Dispair
;
and
with
you
in
the
midst
of
Perplexity
,
to
keep
you
from
being
Distressed
;
and
with
you
in
the
midst
of
Persecution
,
to
Sucker
and
Cherish
you
,
and
refresh
your
hearts
as
with
New
Wine
;
and
oh
surely
,
dear
Babes
,
he
is
with
you
still
,
to
Comfort
you
still
,
to
Refresh
you
still
,
to
Feed
and
Nourish
you
still
,
to
Strengthen
you
still
,
to
Uphold
and
Support
you
still
,
to
Keep
and
Defend
you
;
and
surely
he
will
never
leave
you
nor
forsake
you
,
if
you
forsake
him
not
,
but
will
cleave
unto
you
,
as
you
cleave
unto
him
,
and
will
still
be
your
God
,
and
you
shall
be
his
People
still
,
and
rest
in
him
for
ever
when
in
this
World
you
shall
be
no
more
.
Oh
,
dear
Friends
,
my
soul
loveth
you
,
wherefore
I
cannot
forget
you
,
but
often
remember
you
,
especially
since
the
Lord
hath
been
pleased
to
visit
that
place
with
such
fore
Affliction
,
and
to
give
it
to
drink
so
deeply
of
the
Cup
of
his
Righteous
Judgments
,
and
oh
my
soul
desires
that
the
Lord
may
keep
and
hide
your
Souls
in
the
hollow
of
his
hand
,
whatever
Affliction
he
suffers
to
come
upon
your
Bodies
;
and
oh
that
he
may
inable
you
to
wade
through
all
,
and
to
bear
all
with
Patience
and
Contentedness
,
and
think
not
any
of
you
the
Lord
cares
not
for
you
,
or
that
he
dis-regards
you
,
●ecau●e
he
doth
or
may
permit
the
Beesom
of
his
Righteous
Ju●gements
,
(
which
he
hath
sent
forth
to
sweep
away
the
W●cked
)
to
sweep
away
many
of
your
Bodies
from
off
the
Earth
,
neither
murmur
against
the
Lord
,
who
may
do
what
pleaseth
him
,
and
yet
all
his
doings
are
Equal
and
Righteous
altogether
;
and
how
strange
soever
his
doings
appear
to
the
carnal
reasoning
fleshly
part
,
yet
assuredly
he
intends
good
in
all
his
deallings
towards
all
the
honest
,
simple
,
innocent
upright
hearted
ones
;
and
it
is
inwardly
well
with
such
whatsoever
outwardly
the
Lord
suffereth
to
befall
them
,
and
it
shall
be
well
with
their
Souls
eternally
,
whatever
the
Lord
permits
to
come
upon
their
Bodies
;
and
truly
the
sence
of
these
things
I
know
doth
cause
Joy
to
spring
inwardly
in
the
midst
of
outward
Sorrows
,
and
Comfort
in
the
midst
of
Heaviness
,
Rest
in
the
time
of
Trouble
,
and
Content
and
Satisfaction
in
the
midst
of
Affliction
,
and
maketh
that
soul
to
bear
all
with
patience
,
without
murmuring
against
the
Lord
;
and
makes
such
to
say
,
The
will
of
God
be
done
;
well
it
is
the
Lord
that
suffereth
it
thus
to
be
,
and
why
should
I
murmur
against
him
,
seeing
he
knoweth
what
is
best
for
me
,
and
will
not
suffer
any
thing
to
besal
me
,
but
what
through
his
Love
and
Mercy
shall
work
for
my
good
,
as
I
cleave
to
him
,
and
am
faithful
unto
him
;
though
my
Earthen
Vessel
may
be
broken
to
peices
,
and
be
turned
to
the
dust
,
and
be
taken
away
,
as
the
Wicked
are
,
who
know
not
God
;
yet
nevertheless
I
know
it
shall
not
be
with
my
soul
as
it
shall
be
with
the
Wicked
,
for
it
shall
go
ill
with
them
that
Die
and
be
cut-off
in
their
Sins
,
but
through
the
love
of
the
Lord
it
is
,
and
shall
be
well
with
my
soul
,
for
that
shall
Live
and
never
Die
,
whatever
comes
upon
my
Earthen
Vessel
;
wherefore
I
will
not
say
in
a
murmuring
way
,
Lord
why
is
it
thus
,
that
as
to
outward
appearance
thou
takest
away
the
Righteous
with
the
Wicked
,
and
cu●est
off
them
that
fear
thy
Name
with
them
that
fear
thee
not
,
as
if
thou
hadst
no
regard
to
thy
people
,
nor
respect
to
them
that
call
upon
thy
Name
,
nor
care
over
those
who
serve
thee
with
an
upright
Heart
;
but
I
will
be
still
,
and
know
that
the
Lord
he
is
God
,
and
may
do
as
seemerh
good
in
his
Eye
,
whose
workings
are
Mysterious
,
and
his
doings
very
Strange
,
and
his
actings
very
Marvellous
in
the
eyes
of
many
;
who
is
even
to
wonderful
for
his
people
,
unto
whom
he
intends
good
altogether
,
for
oh
he
loveth
them
,
and
they
are
dear
unto
him
as
the
Apple
of
his
Eye
,
they
are
his
Portion
which
he
hath
chosen
,
and
his
Inheritance
for
ever
,
which
he
hath
purchased
for
himself
;
who
is
God
over
all
blessed
for
evermore
.
Oh
,
dear
Friends
Brethren
and
Sisters
,
my
dear
unfeigned
Love
extends
to

Pity

Tenderness

Compassion
and
Care
towards

watcheth
in
his
holy
fear
;
whose
tender
bowels
is
more
largely
open
towards
his
tender
innocent
hearted
ones
,
then
their
weakness
is
able
to
comprehend
.
Oh
the
Lord
Almighty
be
with
you
,
and
the
Arm
of
his
Power
incompass
you
about
,
and
bear
you
up
,
and
keep

from
Fainting
and
Falling
as
some
have
done
(
to
the
dishonour
of
the
Lord
,
and
grief
of
your
Souls
)
and
preserve
you
unto
the
end
of
your
Daies
,
that
you
may
finish
your
Course
with
Joy
,
and
lay
down

hath
often
had
you

also
longed

visit
you
with
a
few
Lines
,
but
desirous
to
wait
the
Lords
time
;
read
and
feel
my
love
in
that
which
is
more
precious
and
excellent
then
all
Words
whatsoever

wherein
we
are
hid
together

THE
original
of
the
foregoing
Lines
was
chiefly
write
to
Friends
in
the
Town
of
Colchester
,
but
having
freedom
in
the
Lord
,
and
even
pressed
thereunto
by
his
Love
;
I
thought
meet
to
send
Copies
thereof
to
go
among
Friends
in
Suffolk
,
Norfolk
,
or
elsewhere
,
as
Friends
have
freedom
to
Communicate
them
one
to
another
.
And
dear
Friends
,
let
this
signifie
unto
you
that
my
soul
loveth
you
,
and
have
a
remembrance
of
you
,
and
a
Brotherly
care
and
affection
towards
you
in
the
Truth
,
wherein
I
desire
your
Prosperity
,
Tranquility
and
Preservation
,
in
this
day
of
Tryal
,
in
this
hour
and
power
of
Darkness
;
even
as
I
desire
for
my
own
Soul
,
the
Lord
my
God
even
your
God
is
my
Witness
;
desiring
that
I
and
you
(
with
all
who
love
the
Lord
in
Sincerity
,
and
that
make
meation
of
his
Name
in
Truth
and
Righteousness
)
may
all
be
kept
close
in
Heart
and
Mind
unto
the
Lord
,
standing
upon
our
watch
in
the
Light
,
with
the
loines
of
our
minds
girded
up
unto
God
,
having
on
the
Brest-plate
of
Righteousness
,
and
the
Helmet
of
Salvation
to
guide
,
stear
and
order
us
aright
,
that
we
may
not
be
Bewildred
in
this
day
of
Storms
and
Tempests
,
and
especially
to
have
and
hold
fast
the
Shield
of
Faith
,
by
which
we
may
be
able
to
quench
and
send
off
all
the
Fiery
Darts
of
the
Wicked
,
within
and
without
;
yea
to
have
on
the
whole
Armour
of
Light
,
being
fitted
for
the
Fiery
Tryals
and
Tribulat
on
s
,
that
so
nothing
may
come
upon
us
unawares
,
before
we
be
fitted
for
it
;
oh
that
it
might
not
be
with
any
of
those
who
profess
Righteousness
,
as
i●
was
with
the
People
in
the
daies
of
Noah
,
who
were
Eating
and
Drinking
,
and
Sporting
themselves
,
Marrying
and
giving
in
Marriage
,
and
knew
not
till
the
Flood
came
and
swept
them
away
;
but
oh
that
we
may
all
stand
upon
our
Watch-Tower
,
and
all
hold
fast
our
Integrity
in
the
Lord
,
and
keep
close
to
our
first
Love
,
and
none
to
deale
unkindly
towards
the
Wife
of
his
youth
,
by
casting
her
off
,
and
going
after
other
Lovers
,
but
all
be
tender
over
her
,
and
still
love
her
with
your
whole
Hearts
,
and
cleave
unto
her
,
for
she
is
a
Spotless
Virgin
,
and
never
was
Defiled
with
the
alluring
man
of
Pleasure
,
she
is
very
Beautiful
,
Amiable
and
Comely
in
the
Eyes
of
the
pure
in
heart
,
and
the
Glory
of
the
Lord
God
is
her
Dowry
,
and
blessed
for
evermore
is
the
soul
that
is
joyned
with
her
in
a
perpetual
Covenant
,
never
to
be
broken
.
We
all
in
this
Prison
,
who
suffereth
upon
Truth
account
are
in
a
measure
of
Health
at
present
,
through
the
Love
and
Goodness
of
our
God
,
blessed
and
praised
be
his
Name
for
evermore
;
whose
tender
Compassion
faileth
not
towards
them
who
love
him
,
therefore
are
his
people
not
Consumed
,
but
preserved
as
Lambs
in
the
midst
of
devouring
Wolves
,
by
him
the
good
Shepherd
of
Israel
;
who
stopeth
the
Mouths
of
Lyons
,
and
chaineth
up
the
Beast
of
Prey
for
his
little
Flocks
sake
,
whom
he
so
dearly
loveth
,
that
they
may
behold
his
Power
,
and
admire
his
Love
,
and
trust
in
his
Name
,
and
return
the
Praise
unto
him
whose
Mercies
are
over
all
his
Works
,
glory
to
God
in
the

;
my
Love
salutes
you

SOME
Prison
Meditations
OF
AN
Humble
Heart
:
Given
forth
from
a
Child
in
Israel
,
whose
soul
very
dearly
loveth
his
Heavenly
Fathers
Children
,
much
desiring
(
and
travelling
in
Spirit
for
)
their
Prosperity
in
the
Truth
,
even
as
for
his
own
soul
;
and
the
Author
hereof
believing
and
knowing
that
this
following
Treatise
may
(
if
the
Lord
will
)
be
of
service
unto
many
,
of
the
tender
,
honest
,
simple
,
single
,
upright-hearted
ones
,
who
are
following
on
to
know
the
Lord
in
the
footsteps
of
Righteousness
;
and
who
desireth
to
pass
over
on
to
the
end
,
in
the
strait
way
of
Holiness
;
therefore
,
even
for
their
sakes
,
is
this
following
Treatise
Published
from
a
constraint
of
Gods
love
,
in
singleness
and
simplicity
of
Heart
.
OH
,
Oh
my
Soul
,
be
not
unmindful
of
the
large
mercy
and
goodness
of
the
Lord
shewed
towards
thee
,
neither
forget
the
exceeding
loving
kindness
of
the
Holy
One
manifested
unto
thee
,
oh
my
Soul
;
oh
let
the
sence
of
what
the
Lord
thy
dear
,
tender
,
pitiful
,
compassionate
God
hath
done
for
thee
,
continually
be
fresh
in
and
upon
thee
,
oh
my
Soul
;
for
the
Lord
thy
God
hath
freely
done
that
for
thee
,
which
none
besides
him
the
mighty
one
could
do
:
Oh
my
Soul
the
Lord
hath
brought
thee
out
of
the
Pit
,
even
out
of
the
horrible
Pit
,
and
out
of
the
Mire
and
Clay
,
wherein
thou
once
stuck
so
fast
,
as
that
thou
couldst
never
have
been
able
to
have
gotten
out
by
all
means
possible
thou
couldst
have
invented
,
but
must
have
sunkdeeper
and
deeper
therein
,
and
so
have
perished
for
ever
,
had
not
the
Lord
God
of
infinite
mercy
helped
thee
,
who
did
cast
his
eye
of
pity
and
compassion
upon
thee
,
and
out
of
his
meer
mercy
,
love
and
free
grace
,
stretched
out
his
hand
to
help
thee
,
oh
my
soul
,
when
none
besides
him
could
help
thee
,
and
by
his
arm
of
his
loving
kindness
lifted
thee
up
out
of
the
horrible
pit
,
out
of
the
mire
and
clay
,
and
hath
set
thy
feet
upon
a
Rock
which
stands
sure
,
and
can
never
be
moved
,
and
thereon
he
establisheth
thy
goings
,
praises
,
pure
living
righteous
praises
to
the
Lord
thy
God
be
rendered
by
thee
,
oh
my
soul
,
even
forever
and
for
evermore
.
Oh
my
Soul
,
remember
thou
wast
once
even
like
a
poor
filly
Sheep
without
a
Shepherd
,
wandering
upon
the
barren
Mountains
and
dry
Heaths
in
the
Wilderness
and
solitary
places
,
full
of
Trouble
,
Sorrow
and
Perplexity
,
and
knew
not
the
way
to
the
Fold
of
Rest
,
oftentimes
mourning
and
weeping
alone
,
as
a
Dove
without
her
Mate
,
when
no
eye
saw
thy
sorrow
but
the
Lord
alone
;
often
saying
in
thy
heart
,
whose
State
and
Condition
is
so
miserable
as
mine
?
who
so
Poor
and
Desolate
as
I
?
none
knowing
how
it
is
with
me
but
the
Lord
alone
:
And
indeed
the
Lord
then
saw
thee
and
knew
how
it
was
with
thee
,
oh
my
soul
,
and
he
the
tender
God
of
unfathomable
bowels
of
Compassion
behold
thee
in
that
day
,
when
thou
didst
eat
thy
bread
Weeping
,
and
mingled
thy
drink
with
Tears
,
and
he
the
compassionate
one
heard
thy
secret
crys
,
and
knew
thy
secret
desires
,
and
thy
sighing
and
groaning
entred
into
his
ears
,
and
thy
tears
which
thou
dropped
upon
his
Alter
laid
open
unto
the
view
of
the
eye
of
thy
tender
merciful
God
,
and
his
tender
bowels
was
moved
with
pity
towards
thee
,
and
for
his
own
Seeds
sake
he
had
compassion
upon
thee
,
oh
my
soul
,
and
helped
thee
in
the
day
of
thy
Trouble
,
and
delivered
thee
out
of
Distress
,
who
freely
reached
forth
his
Arm
unto
thee
,
and
took
thee
by
the
Hand
,
and
brought
thee
out
of
the
Wilderness
and
desolate
Places
,
and
set
thy
feet
in
the
right
way
which
hath
led
thee
to
a
City
of
Habitation
,
and
to
the
Fold
of
Rest
;
and
now
the
Lord
(
who
both
sought
thee
,
and
found
thee
out
,
and
brought
thee
out
of
the
Wilderness
,
and
from
off
the
barren
Mountains
)
he
is
become
thy
Shepherd
,
oh
my
soul
,
and
how
canst
thou
want
any
good
thing
,
he
oftentimes
feedeth
thee
,
and
even
causeth
thee
to
lie
down
in
green
Pastures
,
&
leadeth
thee
by
the
still
Waters
,
even
Shilc's
brook
,
which
runs
softly
,
and
he
spreadeth
thy
Table
in
the
sight
of
thy
Enemies
,
and
anointeth
thy
Head
with
the
oyl
of
Cladness
,
and
causeth
thy
Cup
to
overflow
with
new
Wine
,
and
hath
brought
thee
to
sit
under
thy
own
Vine
,
and
under
thy
Fig-tree
,
and
none
shall
make
thee
afraid
,
oh
my
soul
:
Oh
the
Goodness
of
the
Lord
,
oh
the
Kindness
of
the
Lord
,
oh
the
Mercy
of
the
Lord
,
oh
the
Pity
of
the
Lord
,
oh
the
Compassion
of
the
Lord
God
of
tender
Bowels
is
even
Unutterable
,
Unspeakable
,
Unfathomable
and
Incomprehensible
;
Oh
the
Heighth
,
oh
the
Depth
,
oh
the
Length
,
oh
the
Breadth
of
the
Love
of
the
Lord
:
Oh
my
soul
!
truly
when
thou
meditatest
of
the
goodness
of
the
Lord
,
and
considerest
of
his
loving
kindness
and
mercy
shewed
towards
thee
;
oh
,
how
can
but
the
sence
thereof
pitch
thee
even
upon
a
stand
of
admiration
:
Oh
surely
,
surely
when
thou
,
oh
my
soul
,
lookest
back
into
his
Works
,
&
considerest
how
much
he
hath
wrought
in
thee
,
and
for
thee
,
thou
canst
see
no
end
of
his
praises
;
oh
praises
,
oh
living
praises
,
holy
righteous
praises
unto
the
pure
holy
righteous
Lord
God
be
ascribed
by
thee
,
oh
my
soul
,
for
ever
and
for
evermore
.
Oh
my
Soul
as
thou
art
kept
in
the
fresh
sence
and
remembrance
of
the
great
Loving
Kindness
,
the
great
Mercy
,
the
great
Pity
and
unspeakable
Compassion
of
the
Lord
thy
tender
God
which
he
hath
,
and
daily
doth
manifest
unto
thee
,
oh
my
soul
;
oh
,
how
canst
thou
but
in
the
sence
of
Gods
unspeakable
Love
abound
in
Love
,
in
Pity
,
in
Mercy
,
in
Kindness
,
in
Tenderness
and
Compassion
towards
all
People
,
but
especially
towards
all
Souls
who
are
Seeking
,
Thirsting
,
Hungring
,
Breathing
,
Crying
and
Painting
after
Righteousness
,
Peace
,
everlasting
Rest
and
eternal
Happiness
:
Oh
,
my
soul
,
the
Lord
thy
God
knoweth
the
frame
of
thy
Spirit
,
the
Lord
knoweth
the
tenderness
of
thy
Bowels
,
and
the
openness
of
thy
Bosom
towards
all
the
Seekers
after
Righteousness
,
towards
all
the
Travellers
to
Sion
,
and
towards
all
the
Mourners
therein
:
Oh
,
my
soul
,
remember
how
that
at
sometimes
when
the
great
Fountain
,
the
great
Deep
hath
opened
,
and
issued
forth
of
his
fulness
into
thee
,
oh
my
soul
;
and
when
Joy
hath
come
into
thy
heart
as
a
River
,
and
Gladness
as
a
mighty
Stream
,
Refreshings
as
showers
in
the
Spring
,
and
Consolation
as
due
upon
the
tender
Plants
,
and
when
thou
couldst
sing
for
joy
of
heart
,
and
shout
aloud
even
Praises
and
Halelujahs
to
thy
God
,
that
then
,
even
then
thou
,
oh
my
soul
,
remembrest
the
Poor
and
Needy
in
his
own
Eyes
,
and
think'st
thou
hearest
his
cry
sounding
in
thy
Ear
,
and
his
soul
saying
in
secret
;
Oh
how
many
is
there
who
Eateth
of
the
largest
Loaves
,
and
Drinkest
of
the
largest
full
Flagons
;
but
oh
,
alas
for
me
,
I
have
scarce
a
drop
of
Refreshment
,
hardly
a
crum
of
Consolation
,
but
my
Tears
is
my
Meat
and
Drink
Day
and
Night
,
whilest
my
Enemy
saith
unto
me
,
where
is
thy
God
▪
Oh
I
go
bowed
down
all
the
day
long
,
and
none
knoweh
my
Sorrow
but
the
Lord
alone
;
Oh
,
I
am
even
as
an
Owl
in
th●
Desart
,
and
as
the
Pelican
in
the
Wilderness
,
I
am
as
the
alon●
Quail
in
the
stubble
Fields
,
and
as
the
Dove
mourning
for
th●
loss
of
her
Mate
,
and
as
the
alone
Sparrow
upon
the
House
top
,
and
as
a
Woman
forsaken
and
grieved
in
Spirit
;
Oh
,
whose
Condition
is
like
mine
!
is
there
any
amongst
the
Sons
and
Daughters
of
Men
like
unto
me
?
is
there
any
so
Poor
as
I
?
oh
,
is
there
any
so
Needy
as
I
?
oh
,
is
there
any
so
Weak
and
Feeble
as
I
?
is
there
any
so
Foolish
as
I
?
oh
,
is
there
any
so
Dry
and
Barren
as
I
?
oh
,
is
there
any
so
Cold
and
Fruitless
to
God-ward
as
I
?
is
there
any
so
Desolate
as
I
?
Oh
my
leanness
,
oh
my
leanness
,
oh
how
long
,
how
long
shall
it
be
thus
with
me
?
oh
how
long
,
how
long
shall
I
sit
mourning
as
by
the
River
of
Babylon
with
my
Harp
laid
aside
?
oh
when
,
when
shall
I
walk
again
in
Sion
,
and
travel
in
the
Streets
of
Jerusalem
?
with
a
new
Song
in
my
Mouth
,
and
everlasting
Joy
upon
my
Head
,
and
living
Praises
in
my
Heart
unto
the
Lord
who
dw●lleth
in
his
Sion
,
and
his
presence
is
great
in
his
Jerusalem
;
but
oh
alass
for
me
,
I
am
as
one
cast
out
of
his
sight
,
and
one
who
walketh
dejected
all
the
day
long
;
Oh
when
will
the
Lord
cause
the
days
of
my
Mourning
to
be
over
,
and
the
nights
of
my
Sorrow
to
pass
away
,
and
my
Sighings
and
Groanings
to
vanish
,
and
all
Tears
to
b●
wiped
from
mine
Eyes
?
oh
when
will
the
Lord
give
me
Beauty
instead
of
Ashes
,
the
Oyl
of
Joy
for
Mourning
,
and
the
Garment
of
Praise
for
the
Spirit
of
Heaviness
,
that
I
(
a
Poor
Dry
Barren
one
)
might
become
a
Tree
of
Righteousness
,
bringing
forth
Fruit
of
Holiness
abundantly
to
the
praise
of
the
Lord
God
,
that
he
in
and
through
me
might
be
glorified
?
Oh
when
shall
my
Winter
be
over
,
and
the
terrible
Storms
be
gone
?
oh
when
shall
the
cold
nipping
Frosts
be
expelled
,
&
the
Darkness
and
Gloominess
be
extinguished
?
oh
when
will
the
Sun
of
Righteousness
break
forth
unto
me
in
his
Glory
,
and
his
warm
Beams
refresh
and
warm
my
poor
cold
Soul
?
oh
when
will
the
Spring
come
,
when
shall
I
know
a
Spring-time
●
the
Lord
?
oh
when
will
Summer
come
?
oh
when
will
the
singing
of
Birds
come
?
oh
when
shall
I
hear
the
voice
of
the
Turtle
in
my
Land
?
oh
when
will
the
Showers
from
on
high
fall
down
upon
my
Soul
?
oh
when
shall
I
receive
the
early
and
latter
Rain
?
oh
when
shall
I
come
to
sit
under
my
own
Vine
,
and
under
my
Fig-tree
,
and
none
to
make
me
afraid
?
Oh
how
long
shall
my
Beloved
be
hid
from
me
,
as
in
the
clifts
of
the
Rocks
,
and
as
in
the
secret
places
of
the
Stairs
?
sometimes
indeed
he
shews
himself
unto
me
,
as
behind
the
Wall
,
and
as
through
a
Lattis
,
and
then
my
Bowels
,
my
tender
Bowels
are
moved
for
him
:
Oh
when
,
oh
when
shall
I
have
a
full
enjoyment
of
him
whom
my
soul
loveth
?
oh
that
I
could
but
plainly
hear
his
Voice
,
and
perfectly
see
his
Face
;
for
oh
indeed
sweet
is
his
Voice
,
and
his
Countenance
is
very
comly
;
my
soul
desireth
him
in
the
Night
season
,
and
in
the
Morning
I
seek
him
early
;
but
oh
I
cannot
find
him
whom
my
soul
loveth
,
for
he
hath
with-drawn
himself
from
me
,
and
〈◊〉
is
the
cause
of
my
Leanness
,
Coldness
,
Barrenness
and
Unfruitfulness
to
God-ward
,
which
is
the
cause
of
my
Sorrow
,
Tears
,
Sighing
,
Groaning
,
Mourning
and
walking
Dejected
all
the
day
long
.
Oh
,
indeed
there
was
a
time
once
when
my
Beloved
knocked
at
the
Door
of
my
Heart
,
saying
again
and
again
,
open
,
open
,
unto
me
;
my
Head
is
wet
with
Dew
,
and
my
Locks
filled
with
the
Drops
of
the
Night
;
open
,
open
unto
me
,
and
let
me
in
;
but
oh
wo's
me
,
I
was
gotten
into
a
Bed
of
false
Ease
and
wrong
Security
,
and
was
loath
to
come
out
;
but
I
made
many
excuses
,
and
said
,
I
have
put
off
my
Coat
,
how
shall
I
put
it
on
?
I
have
washed
my
Feet
how
shall
I
defile
them
,
&
c
?
and
I
lingered
so
long
,
as
that
my
Beloved
withdrew
himself
;
and
at
last
I
rose
(
in
my
own
time
,
not
when
he
called
)
to
open
to
my
Beloved
,
and
he
was
gone
,
and
then
I
called
him
,
but
he
did
not
answer
me
,
I
sought
him
,
but
did
not
find
him
;
and
oh
,
my
Bowels
,
my
Bowels
is
even
pained
for
him
,
and
my
Soul
panteth
after
him
,
even
as
the
Hart
painteth
after
the
water
Brooks
;
Oh
that
I
could
but
find
him
whom
●y
soul
loveth
,
oh
I
would
hold
him
,
I
would
hold
him
fast
,
I
would
not
let
him
go
;
he
should
lie
all
night
in
my
Bosom
,
I
would
be
watchful
and
diligent
that
I
grieve
him
not
,
and
very
fearful
of
displeasing
of
him
,
and
would
take
heed
of
giving
him
any
cause
whereby
to
leave
me
,
and
thus
to
hide
his
Face
from
me
;
but
oh
,
alass
for
me
,
when
shall
I
find
him
,
when
will
he
come
I
long
for
?
Oh
when
,
when
shall
I
have
my
full
enjoyment
of
him
?
oh
,
when
will
he
bring
me
into
his
Banquetting-House
,
and
his
Love
be
even
as
a
Banner
over
me
,
his
left
hand
under
my
Head
,
and
his
right
Imbrasing
of
me
,
staying
me
with
Flagons
,
comforting
me
with
Apples
,
making
me
Sick
of
Love
,
giving
me
of
his
spiced
Wine
,
and
of
the
juce
of
his
Pomgranets
?
oh
,
if
thus
I
could
come
to
enjoy
him
whom
my
Soul
Loveth
,
then
would
all
Tears
be
wiped
away
from
mine
Eyes
,
and
I
forget
my
Sorrow
,
because
of
Joy
and
Gladness
,
and
then
should
I
look
no
more
Sorrowful
,
but
should
Rejoyce
,
as
Hannah
did
,
and
say
;
Oh
my
Heart
rejoyceth
in
the
Lord
,
and
my
Horn
is
exalted
in
the
Lord
,
and
my
Mouth
is
enlarged
over
my
Enemy
(
who
said
unto
me
,
I
shall
be
always
Barren
and
Unfruitful
)
because
I
rejoyce
in
his
Salvation
,
who
hath
regarded
my
low
Estate
;
oh
,
now
I
the
Barren
shall
bear
Seven
,
and
she
who
hath
had
many
Children
wax
Feeble
,
now
I
the
parched
Ground
become
a
Pool
,
and
I
the
dry
Heath
Springs
of
Water
,
now
I
the
solitary
place
Rejoyee
,
and
I
the
Desart
blossom
as
a
Rose
,
I
the
Poor
one
made
Rich
,
and
I
the
Weak
one
made
Strong
,
I
the
Foolish
one
made
Wise
,
I
the
Empty
one
overflow
with
Fulness
;
now
the
days
of
my
sore
Mourning
turned
into
Joy
,
and
the
nights
of
my
Sorrow
turned
into
Pleasure
,
and
the
seasons
of
my
seeking
him
whom
my
soul
loveth
turned
into
times
of
sweet
reposes
with
him
in
his
bed
of
solace
▪
But
oh
,
alass
for
me
,
I
may
speak
of
these
things
,
but
oh
,
when
,
when
will
it
be
thus
with
me
?
oh
how
long
shall
I
wait
,
how
long
shall
I
seek
,
how
long
shall
I
call
and
utter
my
voice
weeping
,
saying
,
oh
come
away
,
come
away
unto
me
,
thou
whom
I
mourn
for
,
whom
I
long
after
,
whom
my
soul
loveth
;
oh
I
have
waited
so
long
that
I
am
weary
,
and
begin
to
be
almost
without
hope
of
his
coming
any
more
unto
me
:
Well
what
shall
I
do
,
and
whether
shall
I
go
?
I
will
even
lay
me
down
in
Sorrow
,
and
make
it
my
Bed
,
and
make
Grief
my
Sheets
,
and
Tears
my
Pillow
,
and
Sighing
and
Mourning
my
Sleep
,
untill
he
come
whom
my
soul
loveth
;
for
verily
I
cannot
,
I
cannot
be
satisfied
with
another
besides
him
.
Oh
,
who
amongst
the
Son●
and
Daughters
of
Men
shall
I
make
my
moan
unto
?
unto
whom
shall
I
complain
and
ease
my
heart
unto
?
where
shall
I
find
one
who
is
sensible
of
my
condition
,
that
can
simpathize
with
me
,
and
that
can
speak
a
word
in
season
unto
my
poor
soul
,
oh
,
is
it
thus
with
any
as
it
is
with
me
?
Yes
,
yes
,
I
believe
there
is
many
hath
been
,
and
many
now
are
in
thy
condition
:
Oh
,
where
may
I
find
one
of
them
,
that
I
might
ease
my
heart
unto
him
,
and
spread
my
condition
before
him
?
for
,
oh
verily
my
Bowels
is
very
open
to
those
who
be
in
my
condition
;
well
,
have
patience
,
be
quiet
,
and
be
still
,
and
lend
an
ear
unto
me
,
and
I
may
speak
a
little
how
it
is
with
me
,
and
it
may
be
(
if
the
Lord
will
)
to
thy
comfort
;
for
,
oh
truly
my
soul
loveth
thee
,
oh
my
heart
is
moved
with
compassion
towards
thee
,
oh
my
bowels
,
my
bowels
is
open
unto
thee
,
and
my
soul
greatly
simpathizeth
with
thy
soul
,
and
could
even
wish
my
soul
(
for
a
time
)
in
thy
souls
stead
;
oh
,
though
indeed
I
am
but
a
Child
,
yet
truly
I
am
in
some
measure
sensible
of
thy
condition
,
and
can
read
it
by
my
own
;
and
oh
how
willingly
would
I
help
thee
,
according
to
my
ability
;
oh
,
truly
methinks
I
would
even
be
a
help
unto
all
who
stand
in
need
of
help
,
but
especially
unto
thee
thou
poor
soul
;
What
art
thou
Poor
?
so
am
I
;
what
art
thou
Weak
and
Feeble
?
so
am
I
oftentimes
;
what
art
thou
Empty
?
so
am
I
oftentimes
;
what
art
thou
Cold
and
Barren
?
so
am
I
sometimes
;
what
art
thou
as
one
Desolate
and
Destitute
?
so
am
I
sometimes
;
what
doest
thou
eat
thy
Bread
Weeping
,
and
mingle
thy
Drink
with
thy
Tears
?
it
is
so
with
me
at
sometimes
,
when
I
want
the
enjoyment
of
him
whom
my
soul
loveth
,
for
t●uly
it
is
with
me
sometimes
as
it
is
with
thee
;
for
sometimes
,
I
have
not
the
enjoyment
of
my
Beloved
,
as
I
have
at
other
times
,
but
sometimes
he
seems
to
be
withd-rawn
and
to
hide
his-Face
from
me
;
oh
then
it
is
with
me
as
it
is
with
thee
;
oh
then
Sorrows
take
hold
upon
me
,
and
Trouble
surroundeth
me
about
as
a
Wall
,
and
Mourning
covers
me
as
a
Garment
,
and
none
seeth
my
Tears
but
the
Lord
;
oh
then
my
Leanness
,
my
Leanness
,
my
Coldness
and
Barrenness
is
my
greatest
Burden
,
which
causeth
me
to
go
bowed
down
in
Spirit
,
saying
in
my
heart
,
Oh
,
whether
is
my
Beloved
gone
,
and
what
is
the
cause
he
hath
with-drawn
himself
from
me
?
wherefore
is
it
thus
with
me
,
what
is
the
matter
,
what
shall
I
do
,
what
will
the
Lord
leave
me
,
what
will
my
God
forsake
me
,
what
will
the
Lord
now
cast
me
off
who
hath
done
so
much
for
me
?
oh
what
is
the
cause
that
it
is
thus
with
me
?
wherefore
is
the
Windows
of
Heaven
shut
up
,
and
the
Showers
of
Refreshment
from
on
high
with-held
from
me
?
oh
once
I
could
say
the
Lord
is
my
Shepherd
,
and
my
soul
doth
not
want
;
he
causeth
me
to
seed
,
and
even
to
lie
down
in
green
Pastures
,
and
leadeth
me
by
the
still
Waters
,
and
spreadeth
my
Table
with
Dainties
,
and
anointeth
my
Head
with
the
Oyl
of
Gladness
,
and
causeth
my
Cup
to
overslow
with
new
Wine
:
But
oh
,
alass
for
me
now
,
I
am
in
a
Dry
and
Thirsty
Land
where
no
Water
is
;
Oh
,
what
hath
the
Lord
cast
me
off
for
ever
?
oh
my
Tears
is
my
Meat
and
Drink
,
whilst
my
Enemy
saith
unto
me
,
where
is
thy
God
,
dost
thou
think
he
will
ever
appear
again
unto
thee
?
why
dost
thou
thus
Hunger
,
Thirst
,
Cry
and
Paint
after
him
?
alas
,
it
is
in
vain
for
thee
to
wait
for
him
;
once
indeed
thou
hadst
the
enjoyment
of
him
,
once
thou
wentst
with
a
Multitude
,
with
them
to
the
House
of
God
,
with
the
voice
of
Joy
and
Praise
,
with
a
Multitude
that
keep
holy
day
;
but
,
alas
thou
must
not
look
for
such
a
day
again
:
And
thus
the
Adversary
of
my
soul
endeavoureth
to
add
Sorrow
to
my
Sorrow
,
and
to
encrease
the
weight
of
my
Burden
,
that
so
I
might
sink
and
never
rise
;
But
,
oh
the
Lord
my
God
is
near
to
help
me
,
even
in
that
time
when
I
can
scarce
perceive
him
,
and
when
I
am
(
as
Peter
was
)
ready
to
sink
,
then
his
invisible
arm
of
Mercy
is
ready
to
save
me
,
and
a
secret
hope
the
Lord
preserveth
alive
in
me
,
which
is
as
an
Anchor
unto
my
soul
,
which
keeps
me
from
suffering
Shipwrack
,
a
hope
that
the
Lord
will
appear
again
to
me
to
my
Joy
,
whereby
some
encouragement
I
feel
stirring
in
me
to
wait
upon
the
Lord
patiently
,
and
to
trust
in
him
,
though
I
do
not
see
him
;
and
to
relie
upon
him
and
hope
in
his
tender
bowels
,
when
he
seems
to
be
far
o●f
me
,
and
to
roul
my self
upon
him
,
and
surely
he
will
appear
again
to
thy
Joy
,
oh
my
soul
,
who
canst
not
be
satisfied
without
his
presence
,
even
the
presence
of
the
Lord
thy
God
,
which
thou
desirest
more
then
all
things
else
whatsoever
;
wherefore
the
Lord
seeing
it
is
so
with
thee
,
that
thou
desirest
his
presence
more
then
all
other
things
;
surely
,
surely
he
will
not
cast
thee
off
for
ever
,
surely
he
will
appear
again
to
thy
joy
,
wherefore
,
why
art
thou
so
much
cast
down
,
oh
my
soul
,
and
why
art
thou
thus
disquieted
within
thee
?
oh
hope
,
hope
thou
in
thy
God
,
for
thou
shalt
yet
praise
him
,
the
Lord
will
yet
again
command
his
loving
kindness
in
the
day
time
,
and
in
the
night
season
,
his
song
shall
be
with
thee
,
even
prai●●s
to
the
God
of
thy
Life
;
oh
wait
patiently
upon
the
Lord
,
and
trust
in
the
living
God
,
whose
compassions
fails
not
towards
those
who
love
him
;
oh
,
he
will
send
out
his
Light
and
Truth
into
thee
again
,
and
it
shall
bring
thee
unto
his
holy
Hill
,
and
to
his
Tabernacle
,
and
then
shalt
thou
go
to
the
Altar
of
God
,
of
God
thy
exceeding
joy
,
and
upon
thy
Harp
shalt
thou
praise
the
Lord
thy
God
,
thy
Delight
and
Joy
,
oh
,
it
is
good
for
thee
both
to
hope
and
quietly
to
wait
upon
the
Lord
,
for
the
Lord
is
good
to
the
Man
that
waits
upon
him
,
unto
the
Soul
which
seeketh
him
,
and
cannot
be
satisfied
without
him
;
oh
,
wait
patiently
upon
him
even
as
a
Servant
waiteth
upon
his
Master
,
and
as
a
Maiden
at
the
hand
of
her
Mistress
,
so
do
thou
wait
for
the
Lord
,
and
even
as
the
Husbandman
who
soweth
his
Seed
in
the
Earth
,
hath
long
patience
for
it
until
he
receiveth
the
early
and
latter
Rain
;
so
do
thou
wait
patiently
upon
the
Lord
,
who
will
be
unto
thee
as
the
early
and
latter
Rain
in
due
season
;
wait
upon
him
,
he
who
is
to
come
,
will
come
,
and
will
not
tarry
,
and
his
reward
will
be
with
him
,
even
fulness
of
Joy
,
Comfort
,
Peace
,
Rest
and
sweet
Satisfaction
unto
thee
;
for
surely
,
surely
,
the
Lord
will
never
leave
thee
nor
forsake
thee
,
if
thou
forsake
him
not
;
indeed
he
may
seem
to
hide
his
Face
from
thee
for
a
time
,
but
without
doubt
he
will
appear
again
to
thy
Comfort
,
who
cannot
live
without
him
?
oh
my
soul
,
the
Lord
heareth
thee
often
saying
in
secret
,
alass
,
What
is
the
Glory
of
the
World
unto
me
?
what
is
the
Honour
and
Praise
of
the
World
unto
me
?
what
is
the
Favours
,
Friendship
and
Estimation
of
the
World
to
me
?
what
is
the
Vanities
,
vain
Sports
,
Delights
&
Pleasures
of
the
Sons
and
Daughters
of
Men
to
me
?
oh
,
surely
all
these
things
are
but
as
Drofs
and
Dung
unto
me
,
in
comparison
of
the
Lord
my
God
,
who
is
the
Fountain
of
everlasting
Joy
,
Delight
and
Pleasure
;
oh
,
if
I
enjoy
him
fully
I
have
enough
;
he
is
the
joy
of
my
Heart
,
the
rejoycing
and
glading
of
my
Spirit
,
the
strength
of
my
Reins
,
the
girdle
of
my
Loines
;
wherefore
,
how
can
I
live
without
him
?
oh
my
soul
,
the
Lord
intends
good
unto
thee
by
all
his
dealings
with
thee
,
if
he
withdraw
for
a
time
,
and
hide
his
Face
from
thee
for
a
season
,
it
is
thereby
to
let
thee
see
what
thou
art
without
him
,
how
Poor
,
how
Weak
,
how
Feeble
,
how
Foolish
,
how
Empty
,
how
Dead
,
how
Dry
,
how
Cold
,
how
Barren
and
Unfruitful
art
thou
without
the
Lord
?
that
so
thou
being
made
truly
sensible
of
thy
own
Weakness
and
Inability
,
may
be
the
more
sensible
of
the
needfulness
of
the
supporting
Power
,
and
upholding
Arm
,
and
saving
Grace
of
the
Lord
thy
God
,
and
the
more
to
relie
and
depend
upon
the
Lord
;
oh
my
soul
,
though
the
Lord
withdraw
his
presence
from
thee
,
thou
comest
the
more
to
know
what
the
want
of
his
presence
is
,
and
comest
to
learn
to
prize
the
sweet
enjoyment
of
his
presence
the
more
,
and
to
hold
him
fast
and
cleave
unto
him
,
and
to
be
very
vigilent
and
careful
thou
dost
not
grieve
him
,
nor
do
the
thing
that
may
cause
him
to
withdraw
himself
from
thee
,
oh
my
soul
.
Oh
my
soul
,
thou
must
learn
to
know
how
to
Want
,
and
how
to
Abound
;
how
to
be
Full
,
and
how
to
be
Empty
;
how
to
be
Rich
,
and
how
to
be
Poor
;
and
in
every
Condition
to
be
content
,
and
not
to
murmur
against
the
Lord
;
the
Lord
can
open
and
none
can
shut
,
and
he
can
shut
and
none
can
open
;
the
Lord
ean
open
the
windows
of
Heaven
and
shower
down
abundantly
upon
thee
,
oh
my
soul
,
and
even
make
a
Plenty
in
thy
Land
,
even
cause
thy
Store
to
abound
with
Corn
,
and
thy
Fats
over
flow
with
new
Wine
;
and
he
can
also
shut
up
the
windows
of
Heaven
for
a
time
,
&
make
a
Famine
in
thy
Land
,
if
he
pleaseth
and
thou
must
not
say
unto
him
(
in
a
murmuring
way
)
why
dealest
thou
thus
with
me
?
for
indeed
he
may
do
what
he
will
do
,
and
yet
all
his
doings
are
Just
&
Righteous
altogether
,
and
in
all
his
dealings
with
thee
,
he
thy
dear
,
tender
nursing
Father
,
intends
good
unto
thee
,
oh
my
soul
.
Oh
my
soul
,
when
the
Fountain
openeth
,
and
the
great
Deep
overfloweth
,
and
fills
thee
with
plenty
of
all
things
needful
for
thee
,
even
then
,
oh
my
soul
,
dread
and
fear
thou
before
the
Lord
,
and
take
heed
of
being
lifted
up
in
Heart
,
of
being
puffed
up
in
Mind
,
of
being
exalted
in
Spirit
,
and
beware
of
a
false
Ease
,
and
wrong
Liberty
and
false
Security
,
which
may
soon
steal
upon
thee
at
such
a
time
,
if
thou
do
not
abide
upon
the
Watch
,
and
dread
the
Lord
,
and
drink
the
draughts
of
Joy
in
the
pure
fear
and
trembling
,
never
departing
there-from
,
in
what
ever
thou
enjoy
of
the
Lord
,
or
receive
from
the
Lord
,
or
do
and
suffer
for
the
Lord
,
keep
low
in
Heart
,
meek
in
Mind
,
humble
in
Soul
,
tender
in
Bowels
,
contrite
in
Spirit
,
and
then
,
oh
my
soul
,
thou
art
in
a
safe
condition
;
truly
,
my
soul
,
when
thou
appearest
Wise
,
Strong
,
Rich
and
Full
enough
,
even
then
thou
art
rather
in
greater
danger
then
when
thou
appearest
Weak
,
Poor
and
Empty
in
thy
own
eyes
,
although
thou
art
not
then
without
danger
,
but
hast
cause
to
fear
and
watch
in
all
conditions
;
oh
my
soul
,
when
thou
appearest
Weak
,
Poor
and
Feeble
in
thy
own
eyes
,
even
then
take
heed
of
distrust
and
doubting
,
but
hold
fast
thy
Trust
in
the
Lord
,
and
let
thy
Confidence
in
his
Name
be
firm
,
and
Hope
in
his
tender
Bowels
be
sure
,
and
constantly
relie
and
depend
upon
him
,
and
honour
him
in
believing
in
him
,
and
if
he
kill
thee
,
yet
trust
thou
in
him
,
and
never
leave
him
;
for
,
alas
whether
shouldst
thou
go
,
he
hath
the
word
of
eternal
Life
,
who
is
worthy
to
be
Glorified
,
Magnified
,
Honoured
and
Praised
,
Feared
,
Served
,
Loved
,
and
Obeyed
forever
,
and
for
evermore
.
Oh
my
soul
,
thou
dearly
lovest
thy
Fathers
Children
;
oh
,
the
Lord
knoweth
how
near
and
dear
his
dear
Babes
and
tender
Lambs
are
unto
thee
,
oh
my
soul
;
oh
,
thou
knowest
them
in
the
Spirit
of
Love
,
wherein
thou
delightest
to
Imbrace
them
(
even
those
whom
,
outwardly
,
thou
never
saw
)
and
(
in
spirit
)
to
clasp
them
about
,
and
kiss
them
with
a
Kiss
of
Peace
,
and
hug
them
in
the
Bosom
of
Indearedness
;
ah
,
thy
Bowels
,
thy
Bowels
is
open
unto
them
,
and
thy
Love
is
dear
indeed
towards
them
,
as
the
Lord
thy
God
knoweth
;
and
oh
that
love
might
abound
in
thee
more
and
more
,
and
in
the
hearts
of
all
the
Children
of
Light
,
it
may
abound
one
towards
another
,
as
in
Days
past
,
and
Years
which
are
gone
,
that
it
may
appear
to
all
we
are
of
God
who
is
Love
,
and
that
we
all
are
true
Disciples
of
Christ
in
that
we
love
one
another
,
not
only
in
Shew
and
in
Word
,
but
in
Deed
and
in
Truth
,
loving
one
another
fervently
with
a
pure
heart
.
Oh
my
soul
,
thou
desirest
to
simpathize
with
thy
Fathers
Children
,
in
their
Tryals
,
Sufferings
and
Afflictions
;
and
(
in
spirit
)
to
bear
a
part
with
them
therein
;
oh
,
thou
desirest
even
to
Mourn
with
them
that
Mourn
,
and
to
Weep
with
them
that
Weep
in
secret
;
and
to
Rejoyce
with
them
that
Rejoyce
,
and
to
Travel
in
Spirit
with
and
for
the
Travellers
to
Sion
,
and
with
the
Travellers
in
Sion
,
and
to
watch
with
those
Watch-men
,
which
the
Lord
hath
set
upon
the
walls
of
Jerusalem
,
who
for
Sions
sake
cannot
be
still
,
and
for
Jerusalems
sake
cannot
hold
their
peace
;
who
cease
not
to
cry
day
and
night
to
the
Lord
,
and
can
give
him
no
rest
until
he
establish
Jerusalem
,
and
make
her
a
praise
in
the
whole
Earth
for
evermore
.
Oh
my
soul
,
be
watchful
and
wary
that
thou
dost
not
in
the
least
degree
seek
Glory
,
Honour
and
Praise
to
thy self
,
and
to
be
had
in
esteem
by
others
;
but
,
oh
wait
to
feel
self
wholly
Baptized
into
Death
,
and
made
of
no
Reputation
;
and
take
heed
that
thy
left
hand
know
not
what
thy
right
hand
doth
,
and
do
nothing
to
be
seen
of
men
,
or
whereby
to
be
accounted
of
by
others
;
but
in
all
thou
dost
,
appeal
unto
him
who
seeth
imsecret
,
and
he
it
is
who
will
reward
thee
openly
▪
seek
thou
to
be
only
known
,
and
manifested
,
to
the
pure
u●erring
Witness
in
all
Consciences
,
and
to
stand
justified
and
approved
by
it
,
and
that
is
enough
,
no
Honour
,
no
Glory
,
no
Praise
but
to
God
alone
;
oh
,
strive
not
for
Lordship
and
Mastership
over
others
,
but
rather
strive
to
be
most
Meekest
,
Lowest
,
Humblest
,
Tender
and
Contite
in
Mind
and
Spirit
,
condesending
even
to
the
Lowest
,
and
serving
the
Meanest
in
love
;
seeking
Peace
and
Unity
amongst
Brethren
,
with
all
self-denyal
,
bearing
,
forbearing
and
forgiving
for
the
Seeds
sake
;
bearing
with
the
infirmities
of
the
Weak
and
Feeble
,
watching
for
the
good
in
all
,
without
respect
of
Persons
;
but
not
to
watch
for
evil
in
any
,
for
that
is
abominable
in
the
eyes
of
the
Lord
;
and
seek
thou
the
glory
of
God
alone
,
the
honour
of
his
Name
,
exaltation
and
spreading
forth
of
his
Truth
,
the
freedom
,
growth
and
reign
of
the
Seed
of
God
in
the
hearts
of
all
,
the
prosperity
of
his
tender
Lambs
;
Babes
and
Children
,
that
they
may
all
stand
in
this
day
of
Tryal
,
and
be
preserved
in
this
hour
of
Darkness
and
Temptation
,
and
even
to
seek
the
good
of
all
,
yea
the
good
of
thy
greatest
Enemies
,
and
have
nothing
but
love
and
good
will
towards
thy
greatest
Persecutors
,
seeking
the
Salvation
of
all
people
,
but
not
the
Destruction
of
any
.
And
,
oh
my
soul
,
be
circumspect
;
and
vigilent
,
to
walk
so
as
becometh
the
Gospel
,
and
thee
to
be
an
adorning
to
the
Truth
of
God
,
and
to
be
as
an
holy
example
and
righteous
pattern
unto
all
people
,
where-ever
I
come
,
that
I
may
be
unto
the
Lord
as
a
sweet
smell
and
delectable
savour
,
that
the
blessing
of
the
Lord
my
God
may
be
pou●ed
down
upon
me
yet
more
and
more
,
that
I
might
become
fruitful
unto
the
Lord
my
God
,
and
be
an
instrument
in
his
hand
amongst
the
Sons
and
Daughters
of
men
,
to
the
praise
,
glory
,
honour
and
renown
of
the
Lord
Almighty
,
for
evermore
;
oh
my
soul
,
watch
and
fear
before
the
Lord
,
and
take
heed
thou
dost
not
that
thing
to
please
others
which
thou
knowest
is
not
approved
by
the
Lord
;
keep
thy
eye
unto
the
Lord
,
&
look
not
ou●
at
others
,
to
walk
by
Imitation
,
and
if
thou
seest
him
or
her
,
one
or
another
(
whatever
they
be
accounted
of
)
do
those
things
which
the
Lord
allows
thee
not
to
do
,
do
not
thee
do
them
because
another
doth
them
,
but
watch
and
keep
close
unto
the
Lord
,
and
take
counsel
of
him
.
Oh
my
soul
,
do
not
judge
,
or
justifie
those
things
which
thou
hast
not
a
true
discerning
in
,
because
an
other
judges
or
justifies
them
,
but
rather
be
passive
in
that
matter
,
and
stand
still
and
wait
upon
the
Lord
for
a
perfect
understanding
in
all
things
.
Oh
my
soul
,
seek
not
Liberty
to
the
Flesh
,
beware
of
that
counted
Freedom
,
which
is
indeed
Bondage
,
which
hath
stollen
upon
many
in
their
latter
days
;
oh
my
soul
,
indeavour
to
put
off
those
things
,
which
in
their
plac●
are
said
to
be
Lawful
,
which
are
a
means
to
hinder
thy
growth
into
the
Eternal
:
And
oh
,
walk
wisely
before
all
men
,
giving
no
offence
to
the
Jew
nor
Gentile
,
nor
to
the
Church
in
God
,
knowing
that
there
is
that
which
is
Lawful
,
but
not
Expedient
;
there
is
that
which
is
Lawful
,
but
it
Edifies
not
;
wherefore
forbare
what
may
be
forborn
,
and
yet
be
not
brought
under
the
power
of
any
thing
below
the
life
,
but
seek
after
those
things
which
make
for
Edification
,
Love
,
Peace
and
Unity
;
for
God
is
the
author
of
Peace
,
and
not
the
author
of
Confusion
,
Strife
,
Contention
and
Debate
:
Oh
my
soul
,
thou
dost
greatly
desire
that
I
might
not
appear
,
in
the
sight
of
any
of
the
Lords
Lambs
and
little
ones
,
to
be
mor●
then
what
I
really
am
in
and
through
the
grace
of
God
,
by
which
I
am
what
I
am
,
and
his
grace
which
he
hath
freely
bestowed
upon
me
hath
nor
been
in
vain
,
praises
to
his
Name
forever
;
oh
,
I
would
not
be
accounted
of
by
any
little
one
to
be
more
then
what
●
am
in
the
Lord
,
but
rather
let
me
be
hid
,
lest
honour
should
be
ascribed
unto
that
,
unto
which
it
doth
not
belong
;
for
indeed
all
honour
belongs
to
God
alone
;
alas
all
Flesh
is
as
Grass
,
and
what
is
Man
,
he
is
but
a
Vessel
wherein
God
may
●ppear
or
disappear
as
he
pleaseth
,
and
indeed
the
Lord
is
jealous
of
his
Glory
,
and
he
will
not
give
it
unto
another
;
wherefore
my
soul
seek
the
glory
,
honour
and
praise
to
God
alone
,
unto
whom
only
it
is
due
for
ever
and
evermore
.
Oh
my
soul
,
thou
doest
not
want
the
love
,
the
dear
unfeigned
love
of
the
Lords
dear
Babes
,
tender
Lambs
and
Children
,
and
oh
thou
desirest
thou
mayst
not
want
their
prayers
for
thee
,
oh
my
soul
,
that
I
may
be
preserved
in
this
day
of
trial
,
and
be
enabled
by
the
Lord
to
finish
my
Testimony
for
him
,
to
his
praise
and
my
comfort
,
joy
and
peace
for
evermore
.
Oh
my
soul
,
fear
thou
before
the
living
God
,
and
very
diligently
take
heed
lest
thou
who
stand'st
should
fall
,
as
several
hath
done
,
to
their
own
woe
,
and
to
the
dishonour
of
God
,
and
to
the
causing
his
unchangable
Truth
to
be
evil
spoken
of
,
and
many
seekers
after
Righteousness
to
stumble
,
&
the
hands
of
Sions
Enemies
thereby
strengthened
against
the
Faithful
of
the
Lord
,
whose
hearts
are
made
sad
,
whom
the
Lord
hath
not
made
sad
;
even
in
the
sence
of
the
sad
condition
of
those
who
once
in
some
measure
were
acquainted
with
the
Lord
,
once
tasted
of
his
Goodness
and
Graciousness
,
of
his
sweet
unspeakable
Love
and
Peace
,
and
even
in
some
measure
,
tasted
and
handled
of
the
word
of
Life
,
and
of
the
powers
of
the
World
to
come
;
who
were
delivered
out
of
spiritual
Egypt
by
an
out-stretched
Arm
and
mighty
Power
,
and
by
the
same
Power
carried
through
the
spiritual
Sea
and
Wilderness
,
and
did
in
measure
eat
of
the
spiritual
Meat
,
and
drink
of
the
spritual
Rock
,
which
was
made
unto
them
as
a
pillar
of
Fire
by
night
,
and
a
pillar
of
a
Cloud
by
day
,
&c.
and
yet
behold
they
are
drawn
back
again
by
the
Enemy
of
their
Soul
,
through
their
yielding
unto
his
Temptations
,
and
receiving
his
P●o●fers
,
and
are
turned
as
the
Dog
to
his
Vomit
,
and
as
the
Sow
that
was
washed
to
her
wallowing
again
in
the
mire
;
and
hath
even
mad●
Shipwrack
of
Faith
and
a
good
Conscience
,
and
are
proved
treacherous
Children
,
denying
their
Father
who
begat
them
,
and
casting
off
their
Mother
who
travelled
in
pain
to
bring
them
forth
,
and
hating
the
Womb
that
bore
them
,
and
the
Paps
which
gave
them
suck
,
and
this
hath
come
upon
them
through
Carelesness
and
Sloathfulness
,
and
through
Reasoning
and
Consulting
with
the
Enemy
of
their
Souls
,
and
through
looking
at
the
Trouble
,
Tryal
,
Sufferings
,
Streights
and
Difficulties
which
appeared
in
their
way
,
and
through
lusting
after
the
Flesh-pots
of
Egypt
,
through
looking
back
into
the
Ease
,
Pleasure
,
Riches
and
Honour
of
this
World
,
which
hath
carried
them
away
captive
again
into
Egypt
,
into
the
house
of
Bondage
again
;
wherefore
,
oh
my
soul
,
watch
,
watch
and
stand
fast
in
that
Liberty
which
the
true
Christ
the
Power
of
God
hath
brought
thee
into
,
and
take
heed
thou
be
not
intangled
again
in
the
yoak
of
Bondage
.
Oh
my
soul
,
if
there
be
some
who
once
were
in
some
measure
Fresh
,
Green
,
Tender
,
Living
and
Fruitful
unto
God
,
who
now
have
lost
their
Freshness
,
Greenness
,
Tenderness
and
Fruitfulness
towards
God
,
and
now
Coldness
,
Deadness
and
Barrenness
is
come
upon
them
to
God-ward
,
and
their
Love
and
Zeal
for
the
Lord
waxed
cold
;
oh
my
soul
,
if
it
hath
thus
happened
unto
some
,
oh
,
how
canst
thou
but
fear
before
the
Lord
,
least
the
same
should
happen
unto
thee
also
.
And
if
some
there
be
whose
minds
are
gotten
into
a
full
Liberty
,
and
are
at
ease
in
the
Flesh
,
living
above
the
Cross
of
Christ
Jesus
,
which
Crucifies
to
the
World
,
and
grown
Careless
and
Negligent
,
spending
their
time
often
with
vain
Talking
,
foolish
Jesting
,
and
needless
Communication
;
how
ought
all
to
spend
their
time
in
waiting
upon
the
Lord
,
in
meditating
and
exercising
themselves
in
the
things
of
God
,
being
very
watchful
over
their
Thoughts
,
Words
,
Works
and
Actions
,
having
the
pure
fear
of
the
Righteous
God
fresh
in
their
hearts
,
standing
in
awe
of
him
always
,
least
they
should
Sin
against
him
in
Thought
,
Word
&
Deed
,
lying
down
&
rising
up
in
his
pure
fear
,
Eating
&
Drinking
and
doing
all
things
in
the
pure
fear
of
the
Lord
,
knowing
a
stay
to
their
Minds
,
a
stop
to
their
Thoughts
,
a
bridle
to
their
Tongues
,
a
watch
before
their
Mouth
,
and
a
fearing
in
their
Hearts
,
least
they
should
not
be
watchful
enough
over
their
Lives
and
Conversations
,
yea
even
over
their
very
Carriage
and
Gesture
,
their
words
being
very
few
,
sober
and
savoury
,
even
savouring
of
the
grace
of
God
in
their
hearts
,
they
desiring
and
endeavouring
to
walk
so
as
that
they
might
in
Life
,
Carriage
and
Conversation
be
as
holy
Patterns
and
righteous
Examples
of
Love
,
of
Peace
,
of
Holiness
and
Purity
,
of
Meekness
and
Lowliness
,
of
Tenderness
and
Pity
,
of
Mercy
and
Compassion
,
of
Patience
and
long
Suffering
,
of
Sobriety
and
Gentleness
&c.
that
so
they
might
walk
as
becometh
Saints
,
B●a●eless
and
Harmless
,
as
Sons
of
God
,
without
rebuke
,
in
the
midst
of
a
crooked
and
perverse
Generation
,
amongst
whom
to
shine
as
Lights
to
the
adorning
of
the
Truth
of
God
professed
by
them
,
and
to
the
Glory
,
Honour
and
〈◊〉
of
the
Lord
God
,
and
to
the
Joy
,
Comfort
,
Refreshment
,
Peace
and
Consolation
of
their
own
Souls
:
Oh
this
condition
is
very
sweet
,
blessed
and
happy
;
wherefore
●leave
,
cleave
,
and
keep
close
unto
the
Lord
thy
tender
compassionate
God
,
and
then
assuredly
the
Lord
will
cleave
unto
thee
,
and
will
not
leave
thee
,
oh
my
soul
;
wherefore
lift
up
thy
head
in
the
strength
of
the
Lord
,
and
look
up
unto
the
holy
one
,
whose
dwelling
is
on
high
in
the
holy
place
;
and
with
thee
,
oh
my
soul
,
as
thou
art
kept
humble
in
H●art
,
contrite
in
Spirit
,
meek
in
Mind
and
trembleth
at
his
Word
;
and
look
not
at
thy
own
Weakness
,
Feebleness
and
Inability
,
but
keep
thy
eye
unto
the
Lord
and
trust
in
his
Name
,
relie
and
depend
upon
his
Arm
,
and
hope
in
his
tender
Bowels
,
who
maketh
the
Poor
Rich
,
the
Weak
Strong
,
the
Simple
Wise
;
wait
thou
patiently
upon
him
,
and
look
not
out
at
the
greatness
of
others
measures
,
neither
look
thou
at
the
smalness
of
thy
own
,
least
Faintness
,
Weariness
and
Discouragement
should
thereby
come
in
upon
thee
,
and
thou
murmur
because
thy
measure
is
no
greater
,
but
be
thou
contented
,
and
truly
satisfied
with
thy
portion
,
and
be
faithful
unto
the
Lord
in
thy
measure
,
and
being
faithful
in
the
little
,
thou
shalt
be
made
ruler
over
much
,
and
enter
into
the
joy
of
the
Lord
;
wait
upon
him
,
who
hath
freely
given
in
thee
what
thou
hast
of
him
,
and
he
can
give
thee
more
;
there
was
nothing
in
thee
(
that
was
of
thee
)
which
induced
the
Lord
to
communicate
that
measure
of
his
fulness
unto
thee
,
which
he
hath
dispensed
to
thee
,
but
of
his
own
meer
mercy
,
tender
love
and
free
grace
,
who
of
his
own
free
will
hath
begotten
thee
again
unto
a
living
hope
,
so
that
thou
well
knowest
,
that
it
is
not
he
that
willeth
,
nor
he
that
runneth
,
but
God
who
sheweth
mercy
:
Oh
thou
hadst
not
awakened
out
of
the
sleep
of
Sin
and
Corruption
,
had
not
the
mighty
God
thundred
from
his
dwelling
place
upon
thee
,
and
awakened
thee
;
oh
my
soul
,
surely
thou
hadst
never
been
raised
out
of
the
dust
of
Sin
,
and
grave
of
Iniquity
,
had
not
the
Lord
of
his
own
free
will
raised
thee
up
,
and
brought
thee
forth
by
his
own
Almighty
power
:
Oh
my
soul
,
surely
thou
hadst
never
(
as
of
thy self
)
turned
unto
the
Lord
,
had
not
the
Lord
of
his
own
free
will
turned
thee
,
and
after
thou
wast
turned
thou
Repentedst
,
and
after
thou
wast
Afflicted
thou
smotest
upon
thy
Thigh
,
yea
thou
wast
consounded
,
because
thou
borest
the
shame
of
thy
youth
;
and
surely
,
my
soul
,
after
the
Lord
had
turned
thee
in
measure
to
him
,
thou
hadst
not
followed
him
in
the
narrow
and
strait
Way
,
through
the
Cross
in
the
Self-denial
,
had
not
the
Lord
thy
God
drawn
thee
after
him
by
the
cords
and
woings
of
his
tender
Love
;
and
surely
thou
hadst
turned
back
again
from
the
Lord
into
the
Mire
and
Durt
again
,
and
hadst
never
Stood
untill
this
Hour
,
but
must
have
Fainted
and
Dyed
ere
this
Day
,
had
not
the
Lord
of
his
own
free
will
Kept
thee
,
Preserved
thee
,
Upheld
thee
,
and
Supported
thee
by
his
own
almighty
Power
,
whose
Grace
hath
been
sufficient
for
thee
,
both
in
the
day
of
Prosperity
,
and
in
the
day
of
Adversity
,
in
the
time
of
Tryal
,
in
the
hour
of
Temptation
;
and
so
let
all
Flesh
be
silent
in
thee
,
oh
my
soul
,
and
the
Lord
only
Exalted
,
and
the
Boaster
for
ever
Excluded
,
and
God
alone
have
the
Glory
,
and
self
wholly
slain
,
and
the
Lord
alone
Honoured
and
Praised
,
and
his
unspeakable
Love
and
free
Grace
,
Admired
,
and
his
holy
Name
Feared
and
Obeyed
,
by
whose
Grace
thou
art
what
thou
art
,
and
his
Grace
bestowed
upon
thee
hath
not
been
in
vain
;
blessed
,
blessed
be
the
Lord
,
and
pure
holy
praises
to
him
,
and
glory
and
halleujah
to
him
in
the
highest
,
Amen
saith
my
soul
.
Oh
,
Lord
,
what
was
I
and
what
was
my
Fathers
house
?
I
was
neither
a
Prophet
nor
a
Prophets
Son
;
what
was
I
,
that
the
King
of
Glory
should
cast
his
eye
upon
me
,
even
when
I
lay
as
among
the
Pits
?
what
was
I
that
he
should
hold
forth
the
Scepter
unto
me
,
and
I
should
find
favour
in
his
sight
?
who
regarded
my
low
Estate
,
and
raised
me
out
of
the
Dust
,
and
brought
me
from
off
the
Dunghill
to
sit
among
Princes
.
Oh
my
Soul
,
the
Lord
hath
done
much
for
thee
since
the
day
he
formed
thee
in
the
Womb
,
and
brought
thee
forth
for
his
Praise
;
he
hath
made
the
crooked
things
strait
before
thee
,
and
rough
smooth
,
and
Mountains
he
hath
laid
low
before
thee
,
and
removed
many
a
Hill
out
of
thy
way
,
and
he
hath
made
a
way
for
thee
in
the
Wilderness
,
and
a
path
through
many
a
Thicket
,
he
hath
lopt
the
Bough
with
terrour
,
and
the
great
one
of
stature
hath
been
hewn
down
;
he
did
cut
up
the
Thicket
of
the
Forrest
with
Iron
,
and
Lebanon
did
fall
by
a
mighty
one
;
oh
,
he
hath
made
the
hard
things
easie
unto
thee
;
oh
,
how
hath
his
Love
made
thee
willing
to
bow
thy
neck
to
the
Yoak
,
and
to
take
up
the
Cross
,
and
totally
to
despise
the
Shame
,
and
to
follow
the
Lamb
through
some
Tryals
and
Tribulations
,
whose
love
hath
drawn
thee
after
him
,
whose
love
hath
(
as
it
were
)
made
thee
to
forget
thy
fathers
House
?
Oh
,
how
hath
his
love
caused
me
to
cast
off
other
lovers
,
and
to
love
the
Lord
my
God
,
who
is
now
become
my
Treasure
,
and
my
heart
is
with
him
?
so
that
if
I
be
shut
up
in
Prison
,
if
I
enjoy
him
;
oh
,
then
Days
,
Months
and
Years
may
pass
over
my
head
,
and
Time
is
not
thought
long
,
nor
Sufferings
hard
,
because
of
the
enjoyment
of
the
presence
of
the
Lord
my
Treasure
,
whom
my
soul
loveth
,
for
whose
sake
I
am
willing
to
suffer
;
whose
pure
sweet
refreshing
,
comfortable
Presence
makes
a
Prison
delightsome
to
me
;
●raises
,
pure
living
praises
to
my
God
for
ever
,
who
hath
been
with
me
in
six
Troubles
,
and
in
the
seventh
he
hath
not
lef●
me
:
he
is
my
Buckler
,
my
Shield
,
my
Strength
,
my
Rock
,
my
Safe-Guard
,
my
strong
Tower
;
wherefore
I
'le
not
fear
the
threats
of
the
Wicked
,
neither
regard
the
cruelty
of
the
ungodly
,
nor
heed
the
purposes
of
my
Enemy
,
nor
mind
the
determinations
of
unrighteous
Men
;
through
the
strength
of
my
God
I
will
not
fear
,
though
the
Earth
be
removed
and
carried
into
the
midst
of
the
Sea
;
and
though
the
Mountains
shake
,
through
the
swelling
thereof
;
though
the
Heathen
rage
,
and
the
People
imagine
vain
things
,
and
the
Rulers
take
counsel
against
me
,
I
le
not
fear
what
man
can
do
unto
me
,
for
the
Lord
is
with
me
,
and
I
shall
not
be
moved
,
and
th●
Lord
will
help
me
;
and
that
right
early
;
yet
alas
for
me
,
poor
,
poor
worm
,
I
am
but
a
Child
weak
and
feeble
,
but
indeed
having
had
great
experience
of
the
love
of
my
God
,
and
of
his
tender
Fatherly
care
over
me
,
how
can
I
but
confidently
trust
,
hope
,
rely
and
depend
upon
my
God
,
believing
that
he
,
the
mighty
one
,
will
enable
me
,
the
weak
one
,
to
wade
through
and
endure
those
tryals
he
pleases
to
exercise
me
withal
;
who
through
his
love
and
mercy
hath
caused
my
Tryals
to
work
for
my
good
,
praises
to
his
name
for
evermore
,
who
hath
nine
times
delivered
me
out
of
the
hands
of
unreasonable
men
,
out
of
their
Prisons
and
Holes
,
where
I
have
suffered
for
the
Testimony
of
my
God
,
through
his
enabling
of
me
,
without
murmuring
against
him
;
praises
unto
him
alone
,
no
honour
,
no
glory
,
but
unto
God
,
saith
my
soul
,
who
hath
kept
me
by
his
power
from
bowing
to
the
Beast
,
or
drinking
of
the
Whores
Cup
;
pure
praise
to
my
dear
God
for
evermore
,
who
will
free
me
once
again
from
Bonds
in
his
own
time
.
I
am
willing
to
wait
thy
season
,
oh
my
God
,
who
art
with
me
;
and
oh
let
me
never
depart
from
thee
,
O
Lord
,
and
then
I
know
thou
wilt
never
leave
me
,
but
thou
wilt
be
my
God
,
to
help
me
still
,
and
to
support
me
still
,
and
to
comfort
me
still
,
and
refresh
me
still
,
and
quicken
me
still
,
and
to
feed
me
still
with
Bread
from
Heaven
,
fresh
Manna
Morning
by
Morning
,
and
give
me
to
drink
of
the
River
of
thy
Pleasure
Daily
;
who
wilt
enable
me
to
stand
faithful
to
thee
unto
the
end
of
my
days
,
that
I
may
finish
my
Testimony
for
thee
,
thy
Name
and
Truth
in
this
thy
day
,
even
with
Joy
,
and
lay
down
my
Head
in
Peace
,
in
thy
tender
Bosom
of
endless
Love
,
oh
my
tender
God
,
and
therein
repose
,
with
thy
dear
Children
for
evermore
,
and
have
my
full
satisfaction
of
love
in
thee
,
thou
Fountain
of
Love
,
and
therein
fetch
my
full
breath
for
evermore
;
oh
let
it
be
so
,
oh
let
it
be
so

oh
my
dear
God
,
for
thy

Seed
sake

to
thy

who
is
worthy

Oh
my
soul
thou
dearly
loveth
the
whole
Flock
of
God
where-ever
they
are
scattered
upon
the
face
of
the
Earth
;
oh

thou
greatly
desireth
their
Prosperity
and
Tranquility
,
and
that
the
Lord
may
prosper
and
bless
them
withal
spiritual
Blessings
in
Christ

:
Oh
,
the
Lord
God
keep
all
his
Children
every
where
in
this
hour
&
power
of
Darkness
,
and
preserve
his
dear
Babes
and
tender
Lambs
in
this
day
of
great
Tryal
and
manifold
Temptation
;
Oh
the
Lord
keep
all
those
who
make
mention
of
his
Name
in
Sincerity
and
Truth
,
from
bowing
in
the
least
degree
unto
the
Beast
,
and
from
drinking
the
least
drop
of
the
Whores
Cup
,
although
she
should
be
permitted
to
drink
their
Blood
;
Oh
,
the
Lord
God
Almighty
keep
his
Sheep
and
Lambs
,
who
were
once
scattered
abroad
,
in
the
cloudy
dark
day
,
whom
he
hath
sought
and
found
out
,
and
gathered
out
of
the
desart
Places
,
and
waste
howling
Wilderness
,
whom
he
hath
brought
from
off
the
barren
Mountains
and
dry
Heaths
,
into
the
low
,
low
,
low
fresh
green
Valley
,
where
the
pure
sweet
refreshing
consolating
springs
of
Life
Eternal
encompasseth
them
about
;
Oh
,
the
Lord
keep
them
still
and
quiet
,
minding
their
Feeding
,
and
not
at
all
h●●●
he
raging
of
the
Sea
,
nor
regard
the
unmerciful
Waves
thereof
,
which
often
looks
very
high
,
as
if
they
would
quite
o●●
flo●
the
Val●●y
of
the
low
Places
,
and
drown
all
who
flee
not
unto
the
Mountains
for
Refuge
and
Safety
;
but
oh
let
not
the
h●ep
and
Lambs
,
and
little
ones
fear
,
nor
at
all
flee
to
the
H●ll●
for
Refuge
,
for
behold
the
Lord
the
high
and
mighty
one
,
the
holy
one
of
Israel
is
their
Shepherd
,
and
he
even
continually
watcheth
over
them
,
and
greatly
careth
for
them
,
and
he
it
is
who
hath
giving
bounds
to
the
raging
Sea
,
and
he
limits
the
proud
Waves
thereof
,
and
shutteth
up
her
Floods
as
he
pleaseth
;
he
can
let
forth
the
Wind
,
and
suffer
a
Storm
,
and
he
can
make
a
Calm
when
he
pleaseth
,
he
can
cause
the
Sea
and
the
Wind
to
obey
him
;
and
therefore
the
Children
of
God
need
not
to
fear
none
besides
the
Lord
,
who
will
suffer
nothing
to
besal
them
,
but
what
shall
work
for
good
to
all
his
chosen
fai●hful
ones
;
wherefore
it
is
good
for
all
the
Children
of
the
Lord
confidently
to
trust
in
the
Lord
,
and
not
at
all
fear
,
though
their
Enemies
pursue
hard
after
them
,
and
say
in
their
hearts
,
Come
,
come
,
we
will
pursue
them
,
we
will
overtake
them
,
our
Lusts
shall
be
satisfied
upon
them
,
we
will
have
the
desire
of
our
Hearts
concerning
them
,
we
will
draw
our
Swords
,
and
our
Hands
shall
destroy
them
,
and
we
will
try
whether
their
Gods
(
in
whom
they
say
they
trust
)
be
able
to
deliver
them
from
the
stroke
of
our
Hands
;
Well
,
let
not
Israel
heed
the
boasting
and
threatning
of
his
Enemies
,
nor
regard
the
p●rposes
of
his
Adversaries
,
though
they
pursue
hard
after
him
,
and
say
,
We
will
bring
them
back
again
into
Egypt
,
or
else
we
will
totally
Destroy
them
;
Yet
let
not
Israel
fear
,
for
the
Lord
his
God
is
between
him
and
his
Enemies
,
and
fights
for
him
against
his
Adversaries
,
and
he
in
his
Anger
will
look
down
upon
them
,
and
trouble
their
Host
,
and
take
off
their
Chariot
wheels
,
and
will
blow
in
his
Wrath
upon
them
,
and
the
Sea
of
his
righteous
Indignation
shall
cover
them
,
and
they
shall
sink
as
Lead
in
the
bottom
of
his
righteous
Judgments
,
and
he
will
get
himself
a
Name
through
the
destruction
of
Sion●
Enemies
,
and
Honour
and
Magnifie
himself
through
the
deliverance
of
his
Chosen
,
who
will
work
wonders
for
his
Redeemed
,
insomuch
as
the
Dukes
of
Edom
shall
be
amazed
,
and
even
trembling
▪
shall
take
hold
upon
the
mighty
men
of
Moab
,
and
all
Nations
shall
shiver
and
quake
before
the
mighty
God
of
Israel
,
who
is
dreadful
in
Holiness
,
fearful
in
Praises
,
doing
Wonders
:
Oh
,
let
Israel
honour
his
God
in
believing
in
him
,
and
in
trusting
in
his
Name
,
in
relying
and
depending
upon
his
Arm
of
everlasting
strength
,
and
patiently
without
murmurings
to
wait
upon
the
Lord
,
for
he
that
is
to
come
will
come
,
and
wil●
not
tarry
,
whose
work
is
before
him
,
and
his
reward
is
with
him
,
even
Joy
for
the
Mourners
in
Sion
,
and
Beauty
for
Ashes
,
Gladness
for
the
heavy
hearted
in
Jerusalem
,
Freedom
for
Bondage
,
Freedom
from
Weights
,
Burdens
and
grievous
Oppressions
.
Oh
let
all
the
Children
of
the
Lord
wait
without
fainting
,
upon
the
Lord
,
for
yet
a
little
while
and
the
voice
will
be
heard
,
saying
rejoyce
,
and
even
sing
for
joy
ye
Saints
,
Servants
and
Prophets
of
the
most
High
,
and
triumph
in
the
Lord
Almighty
over
the
Beast
and
false
Prophet
,
and
over
the
Whore
which
hath
corrupted
the
Earth
,
who
hath
long
sat
as
a
Queen
,
and
said
in
her
heart
she
should
never
see
Sorrow
,
with
whom
the
Nations
of
the
Earth
hath
committed
Fornication
,
and
she
hath
made
Nations
,
Kindreds
,
Tongues
and
People
drunk
with
the
wine
of
her
Fornication
,
who
hath
long
deceived
the
Nations
with
her
golden
Cup
,
which
hath
been
filled
with
Abominations
,
and
in
her
is
found
all
the
Blood
of
the
Martyrs
,
and
Servants
of
J●sus
,
which
hath
been
shed
upon
the
Earth
,
and
she
hath
rid
upon
the
Beast
that
rose
out
of
the
Sea
,
who
received
his
seat
,
great
power
and
authority
from
the
Dragon
,
who
persecuted
the
true
woman
that
was
clothed
with
the
Sun
,
and
had
a
Crown
of
twelve
Stars
upon
her
head
;
who
sought
to
devour
her
Man-child
,
and
made
war
against
the
remnant
of
her
Seed
who
keep
the
Commands
of
God
,
and
have
the
Testimony
of
Jesus
;
these
cannot
worship
the
Beast
nor
his
name
,
nor
receive
his
mark
,
but
these
worship
God
alone
,
and
are
followers
of
the
Lamb
through
many
tribulations
,
whose
garments
are
made
white
in
his
Blood
,
by
whom
they
are
redeemed
from
amongst
men
;
these
the
Beast
and
false
Prophet
have
sought
to
Kill
,
Persecute
and
root
out
from
off
the
face
of
the
Earth
;
but
wo

to
the

false
Prophet

and
the
Whore
,
for
the
day
of
their
Judgment
is
come
,
&
Misery
,
Calamity
,
Distress
&
Destruction
is
coming
upon
them
;

be
Destroyed

Burnt

Fire

for
strong

the
Lord
God
Almighty
who
Judgeth
her
;
and
now
sing
O
Heavens
,
and
rejoyce
ye
who
live
therein
,
over
mystery
Babylon
the
great
,
for
it
is
fallen
,
it
is
fallen
as
a
mighty
Milstone
into
the
bottom
of
the
Sea
,
never
more
to
arise
again
,
Amen
,
Hallelu●ah
.
And
the
Lord
will
thunder
from
Heaven
upon
thy
Enemies
,
oh
Sion
,
and
will
break
thy
Adversaries
to
peices
,
and
will
give
strength
to
thy
King
,
and
exhalt
the
horn
of
his
Anointed
,
and
he
shall
Reign
,
and
Rule
,
and
Prosper
,
and
execute
Justice
and
true
Judgment
in
the
Earth
;
in
his
days
Judah
shall
be
saved
,
and
Israel
shall
dwell
safely
,
and
sit
under
his
own
Vine
,
and
none
shall
make
him
afraid
;
then
shall
it
be
said
to
Jerusalem
fear
not
,
and
to
Sion
let
not
thy
hands
be
slack
,
the
Lord
in
the
midest
of
thee
is
mighty
,
he
hath
saved
thee
,
he
hath
set
thee
free
from
thy
Trouble
he
will
rejoyce
over
thee
with
Joy
,
he
'll
joy
over
thee
with
Singing
,
then
it
shall
be
said
,
sing
oh
Daughter
of
Sion
,
and
shout
oh
Israel
,
and
rejoyce
withal
thy
heart
,
oh
Daughter
of
Jerusalem
,
for
the
Lord
hath
taken
away
thy
Judgment
,
he
hath
cast
out
thy
Enemies
,
and
thy
Warfare
is
acomplished
,
and
thy
great
Travel
is
finished
,
and
now
thou
shalt
rest
from
thy
Labour
,
and
they
who
have
Laboured
and
Mourned
with
thee
,
and
for
thee
,
shall
rejoyce
for
Joy
with
thee
,
and
suck
and
be
satisfied
with
the
sweet
consolation
of
thy
Breast
,
and
milk
out
,
and
be
delighted
in
the
abundance
of
thy
Glory
;
oh
the
Lord
thy
Husband
,
thy
maker
(
the
God
of
hosts
is
his
Name
)
will
extend
Peace
,
Joy
,
Comfort
,
&
everlasting
Refreshment
as
a
mighty
Stream
,
and
endless
Consolations
as
a
River
;
oh
then
shall
they
be
Comforted
in
thee
after
their
Sorrow
,
and
be
born
up
upon
thy
Sides
,
and
dandled
upon
thy
Knees
;
for
as
a
Woman
comforteth
her
only
Son
,
so
will
the
Lord
comfort
Jerusalem
;
in
the
sence
whereof
her
Children
shall
rejoyce
,
and
their
Souls
be
right
glad
,
and
flourish
as
an
herb
,
and
their
Spirits
shall
praise
and
sing
glory
unto
him
who
is
Lord
and
King
of
Heaven
and
Eart●
,
who
is
worthy
,
worthy
of
all
Glory
,
Praise
and
Honour
for
ever

and
for
evermore

Amen
saith
my
soul

The
thing
which
the
Lord
hath
purposed
must
be
accomplished
in
his
season
,
and
the
thing
that
he
hath
determined
must
be
fulfilled
in
despite
of
all
the
powers
of
Darkness
;
Oh
,
that
all
thy
Babes
and
Lambs
may
willingly
wait
thy
appointed
time
,
O
Lord
God
Almighty
;
oh
dear
God
,
keep
all
thy
people
retire
in
thy
Name
,
that
so
what
ever
thou
suffers
to
befal
their
Bodies
,
their
Souls
may
be
safe
bundled
up
in
the
bundle
of
Life
,
wrapped
therein
for
evermore
,
for
a
terrible
day
is
like
to
be
upon
all
Flesh
,
and
who
can
be
able
to
abide
it
?
Oh
,
dear
God
,
increase
the
Patience
of
thy
People
,
strengthen
the
Faith
of
thy
Chosen
;
oh
,
support
the
Weak
,
and
uphold
the
little
Ones
,
which
cannot
go
alone
;
oh
,
that
none
of
thy
Flock
may
faint
,
nor
grow
weary
;
oh
,
that
all
thine
might
stand
in
the
day
of
Tryal
,
and
be
kept
in
the
hour
of
Temptation
,
and
born
up
under
all
Sufferings
,
that
so
in
the
end
they
may
come
forth
as
Gold
seven
times
refined
in
the
Fire
,
that
they
may
shine
as
Stars
in
the
Firmament
of
thy
Power

OH
arise
,
arise
,
thou
holy
righteous
Seed
of
the
Covenant
of
Life
Eternal
;
Arise
,
arise
,
thy
Light
is
come
,
and
the
Glory
of
thy
God
is
risen
upon
thee
;
Oh
thou
lovely
one
,
Nations
shall
come
to
thy
Light
,
and
Kings
to
the
brightness
of
thy
Rising
;
Ah
thou
beautiful
one
,
thy
Sons
shall
come
from
far
,
and
thy
Daughters
from
the
ends
of
the
Earth
;
Arise
,
arise
thou
beautiful
one
,
who
art
altogether
lovely
:
Oh
how
sweet
is
thy
Love
,
thou
lovely
one
?
oh
how
excellent
is
thy
Love
,
thou
choice
one
?
oh
thy
love
,
thy
love
is
more
precious
then
Rubies
,
more
sweeter
then
Hony
,
oh
thy
love
is
better
then
Wine
;
Oh
how
hath
thy
love
overcome
the
hearts
of
many
,
and
won
them
unto
thee
?
oh
thy
love
draws
many
after
thee
;
oh
how
doth
thy
love
cause
many
to
cast
off
all
their
other
Lovers
to
follow
thee
,
thou
lovely
one
?
oh
thou
art
become
unto
many
Souls
(
who
loveth
thee
,
thou
lovely
one
)
even
the
chiefest
of
ten
thousands
,
whose
eyes
are
opened
to
see
thy
Beauty
,
and
to
behold
thy
Comeliness
,
thou
beautiful
one
;
oh
thou
art
hid
from
the
Polluted
,
neither
can
the
Unclean
behold
thy
excellent
Beauty
,
the
Vulture's
eye
cannot
perceive
thy
Comeliness
,
nor
they
who
hath
eyes
full
of
Adultery
,
and
cannot
cease
from
Sin
,
and
have
hearts
exercised
with
coveteous
practises
,
and
are
gone
a
whoring
after
many
Lovers
;
oh
from
these
thou
art
hid
,
thou
lovely
one
,
even
as
a
Garden
inclosed
,
as
a
Spring
shut
up
,
as
a
Fountain
sealed
from
them
:
Oh
arise
thou
choice
one
,
and
let
thy
Beauty
appear
unto
those
who
have
not
seen
thy
Beauty
;
and
let
them
taste
of
thy
Love
,
that
so
they
may
cast
off
all
other
Lovers
,
and
follow
thee
;
cast
off
all
,
and
cleave
unto
thee
with
their
whole
hearts
.
Oh
arise
,
arise
thou
beloved
one
,
and
shine
forth
in
thy
excellent
Glory
,
that
even
the
Nations
may
be
ravished
with
thy
Beauty
,
and
Kingdoms
overcome
with
thy
Love
,
and
be
drawn
after
thee
,
that
a
blessing
in
thee
they
may
obtain
;
Oh
,
arise
and
let
thy
Fruitfulness
appear
,
thou
precious
one
,
and
let
Joy
and
Gladness
fill
thy
heart
,
thou
lovely
one
,
for
the
days
of
thy
rejoycing
is
come
and
coming
,
and
the
days
of
thy
mourning
,
oh
Sion
,
is
fleeing
away
;
Oh
thou
beloved
one
,
thou
hast
been
even
as
a
Woman
forsaken
and
grieved
in
Spirit
,
and
few
or
none
of
the
Sons
or
Daughters
of
Men
hath
looked
upon
thee
with
an
eye
of
pity
;
oh
thou
hast
been
as
the
Owle
in
the
Desart
,
and
as
the
alone
Sparrow
upon
the
house
top
,
and
as
the
alone
Quail
in
the
stubble
fields
,
and
as
a
Dove
mourning
alone
without
her
Mate
;
who
hast
set
solitary
alone
as
in
the
Wilderness
,
and
none
among
the
Sons
of
Men
to
comfort
thee
;
&
oh
thou
beloved
anointed
one
,
thou
hast
been
like
unto
a
man
of
Sorrow
,
and
very
deeply
acquainted
with
Grief
;
often
Smitten
,
often
Grieved
,
often
Afflicted
,
often
Wounded
,
often
Pierced
and
Oppressed
,
even
as
a
Cart
that
is
pressed
with
Sheaves
,
and
yet
the
Sons
and
Daughters
of
Men
hath
not
esteemed
thee
;
although
indeed
,
thou
patient
one
,
thou
hast
been
wounded
by
their
Transgressions
,
and
grieved
,
smitten
and
pierced
,
and
bruised
by
their
Iniquities
,
and
hath
born
the
weight
of
their
Sins
,
and
the
burden
of
their
Transgressions
,
even
while
they
like
Sheep
have
gone
astray
,
every
one
following
his
own
way
,
&
Feasting
themselves
as
for
a
day
of
Slaughter
,
whilst
thou
hast
been
Mourning
because
of
the
Iniquity
of
the
People
;
Eating
and
Drinking
and
rising
up
to
Play
,
whilst
thou
hast
been
Weeping
and
Groaning
in
secret
,
because
of
the
multitude
of
their
Transgressions
,
who
hath
heaped
Sin
upon
Sin
,
and
Iniquity
upon
Iniquity
,
and
hath
loaded
thee
therewith
,
which
hath
been
as
an
impress
of
ten
thousands
upon
thee
,
thou
tender
one
,
and
unto
thee
they
had
no
regard
,
they
took
no
notice
of
thy
Sorrow
and
Burdens
:
But
oh
thou
beloved
one
,
thy
God
,
thy
tender
God
,
who
hath
loved
thee
with
an
everlasting
Love
,
took
notice
of
thy
Sorrow
,
and
he
saw
thy
Grief
,
and
beheld
thy
sore
Weights
and
Burdens
,
and
took
cognizance
of
thy
grievous
Oppressions
,
and
he
heard
the
voice
of
thy
Weeping
,
and
thy
Tears
which
thou
droppedst
upon
his
Alter
lay
in
the
view
of
the
eye
of
his
pitiful
Soul
,
and
he
beheld
thy
great
Travel
,
and
thy
Sighing
and
Groaning
entered
into
his
Ears
,
and
his
tender
,
tender
Bowels
of
infinite
Love
,
Mercy
,
Pity
and
everlasting
Compassion
,
was
and
is
moved
towards
thee
,
and
he
hath
determined
to
comfort
thee
,
with
an
everlasting
Comfort
,
thou
patient
suffering
one
,
and
the
Nights
of
thy
Sorrow
,
shall
vanish
away
for
ever
,
and
the
Days
of
thy
Mourning
,
shall
be
over
.
Oh
thou
beloved
one
,
lift
up
thy
Head
,
lift
up
thy
Head
,
in
the
strength
of
thy
God
,
and
gird
up
thy
Loines
with
Courage
in
the
power
of
his
Might
,
for
thy
Winter
is
almost
over
and
gone
,
and
shall
no
more
come
,
the
Storms
are
vanishing
away
and
shall
no
more
appear
,
the
nipping
Frosts
are
dissolving
by
the
Sun
of
Righteousness
,
who
is
arisen
upon
thee
with
healing
in
his
wings
;
Ah
,
lift
up
thy
voice
like
the
sound
of
a
Trumpet
,
and
shout
like
the
voice
of
a
King
,
and
sing
for
joy
,
thou
beloved
one
;
for
thy
Spring
is
come
,
thou
lovely
one
;
thy
Summer
is
come
,
thou
lovely
one
;
the
singing
of
Birds
is
come
,
thou
beautiful
one
;
and
the
voice
of
the
Turtle
is
heard
in
thy
Land
,
thou
delicate
and
choice
one
;
let
thy
heart
be
filled
with
Melody
,
thou
blessed
one
,
who
art
cloathed
with
Chastity
,
and
keepeth
thy
Virginity
in
the
Chamber
of
Purity
;
oh
,
thy
beloved
is
come
,
and
into
his
Banqueting-House
he
is
bringing
thee
,
where
his
Banner
over
thee
is
Love
,
where
he
will
stay
thee
with
Flaggons
,
and
comfort
thee
with
Apples
,
and
cause
thee
to
drink
of
his
spiced
Wine
,
and
of
the
juice
of
his
Pomgranets
;
oh
Sion
,
rejoyce
thou
in
his
Love
,
for
the
days
of
the
glading
of
thy
heart
is
come
,
thou
tender
one
,
who
hast
been
tossed
with
tempest
&
not
comforted
;
thou
hast
been
termed
Desolate
and
Forsaken
;
thou
hast
been
as
one
Barren
and
Unfruitful
:
but
now
arise
,
arise
,
lengthen
thy
Cords
,
and
strengthen
thy
Stakes
,
and
enlarge
the
Curtains
of
thy
Habitation
;
for
lo
thou
fruitful
one
,
thou
shalt
break
forth
on
the
right
hand
and
on
the
left
,
and
thy
Seed
shall
inherit
the
Gentiles
,
and
thy
Off-spring
the
People
;
the
North
shall
give
up
,
and
the
South
shall
not
keep
back
;
they
shall
come
from
the
East
,
and
from
the
West
,
&
flock
unto
thee
as
Doves
to
the
Window
;
thy
Sons
shall
come
from
far
,
and
thy
Daughters
be
nursed
at
thy
sides
,
thou
shalt
cause
many
wast
places
to
be
builded
,
and
many
Buildings
to
fall
,
and
desolate
places
to
be
Inhabited
,
and
Inhabited
places
to
be
laid
desolate
,
and
barren
Mountains
to
become
fruitful
Valleys
,
and
fruitful
Places
to
become
barren
Mountains
,
and
the
Wilderness
become
a
Vinyard
of
sweet
Grapes
,
the
Forrest
as
a
City
of
Habitation
,
the
parched
Ground
to
become
a
Pool
,
and
dry
Heaths
springs
of
Water
;
oh
arise
,
arise
,
thou
beloved
one
,
and
let
thy
Fruitfulness
be
manifested
to
the
Nations
,
break
forth
in
thy
excellent
Glory
,
shine
forth
in
thy
glorious
Beauty
as
clear
as
the
Morning
without
Clouds
,
fair
as
the
Moon
,
and
bright
as
the
Sun
,
that
thou
mayst
appear
as
a
royal
Diadem
in
the
hand
of
the
Lord
,
and
as
a
Crown
of
Glory
in
the
hand
of
thy
God
,
that
far
off
Nations
may
see
thy
Beauty
,
and
remote
Kings
may
see
thy
excellent
Glory
,
and
be
won
by
thy
Love
unto
thee
,
that
they
who
hath
Hated
thee
may
Love
thee
,
bccause
of
thy
Love
that
did
extend
to
them
,
even
whilst
they
hated
and
rejected
the
woings
of
thy
Love
;
oh

my
soul
loves
thee
in
thy
Love
,
th●u
lovely
one
;
oh
kiss
me
,
kiss
me
with
the
Kisses
of
thy
M●uth
,
for
thy
Love
is
better
then
Wine
,
oh
thou
beautiful
one
,
thy
Love
overcomes
my
heart
,
thy
Love
draweth
me
after
thee
;
oh
thou
art
ple●sant
unto
me
,
thy
presence
is
more
desirable
then
all
things
my
heart
can
desire
;
oh
;
if
thou
hidst
thy
Face
,
thou
bountiful
one
,
then
am
I
bowed
down
,
for
the
smiles
of
thy
comely
Countenance
is
the
rejoycing
of
my
Heart
,
and
the
glading
of
my
Soul
,
the
refreshing
of
my
Spirit
,
as
marrow
to
my
Bones
,
and
strength
to
my
Reins
;
oh
,
thou
art
my
Joy
in
Sorrow
,
my
Comfort
in
Mourning
,
my
Help
in
Need
,
my
Strength
in
Weakness

my
Bread
in
Hunger
,
my
Water
in
Thirst
,
my
Refuge
from
Storms
,
my
Shelter
from
Heat
,
and
as
the
shadow
of
a
Rock
to
me
in
a
weary
Land
;
oh
,
how
can
I
but
love
thee
in
thy
Love
,
thou
lovely
one
;
oh
,
thou
art
my
Mother
who
hath
travelled
in
great
pain
to
bring
me
forth
,
thou
art
the
Womb
that
bore
me
,
and
the
Paps
that
gave
me
suck
,
the
Cradle
of
my
rest
,
and
the
Bed
of
repose
;
oh
can
I
forget
thee
?
how
can
I

,
and

drew
it
after

thou

Breasts

thy
Arms
;
oh
,
thy
Love
,
thy
Love
ovcrcomes
my
Heart
,
thy

even

sick
of
Love
;

of

Love
which
I
have
known
to
be
stronger
then
Death

and

and
let
me

oh
dear
Friends
,
much
hath
the
Lord
done
for
us
,
and
let
his
doings
be
still
marvelous
in
our
eyes
,
&
let
his
own
Works
shew
forth
his
Praise
,
whose
Mercies
endureth
for
ever
;
dear
Friends
,
the
Lord
God
of
Compa●●●on
sought
and
found
us
out
,
in
the
cloudy
,
dismal
,
dark
Day
,
when
we
were
scattered
upon
the
barren
Mountains
and
dry
Heaths
,
wandering
as
silly
Sheep
without
a
Shepherd
;
but
now
hath
he
gathered
us
together
,
and
even
made
us
a
Family
like
a
Flock
,
and
brought
us
down
into
the
low
Valley
,
and
hath
given
us
fresh
and
green
Pasture
to
Feed
in
,
and
streams
of
living
Water
to
Drink
of
;
and
now
the
Lord
(
the
Almighty
Jehovah
)
is
our
Shepherd
,
and
his
everlasting
powerful
Name
our
Fold
,
and
therefore
are
we
not
Consumed
,
though
the
Beasts
of
the
Field
have
come
forth
against
us
,
to
destroy
us
,
and
the
roaring
devouring
Lyons
have
been
very
greedy
of
their
Prey
,
yet
are
we
preserved
unto
this
day
,
because
the
Lord
hath
been
our
defence
on
the
right
hand
,
and
on
the
left
,
who
hath
and
doth
Fight
for
mount
Sion
;
and
as
the
Hills
are
round
about
Jerusalem
,
so
hath
the
Lord
been
,
still
is
,
and
will
be
round
about
his
People
,
as
the
munition
of
Rocks
for
evermore
,
and
their
Bread
shall
not
fail
,
and
their
Water
shall
be
sure
;
O
let
all
that
fear
the
Lord
trust
in
him
whose
Mercies
are
everlasting
.
Oh
dear
Friends
,
the
Lord
once
found
us
in
a
sollitary
Place
,
and
in
a
waste
howling
Wilderness
,
Hungry
&
Thirsty
;
Naked
and
Desolate
,
our
way
hedged
up
as
with
Bryers
and
Thorns
,
and
there
must
we
have
Perished
,
had
not
the
tender
God
of
Bowels
looked
upon
us
with
an
eye
of
Pity
and
Compassion
,
and
helped
us
in
the
day
of
our
Distress
;
how
did
he
lop
the
Bough
with
Terrour
,
and
the
strong
one
of
stature
he
hewed
down
;
he
did
cut
up
the
Thicket
of
the
Forest
,
as
with
Iron
,
and
Lebanon
did
fall
by
a
strong
Arm
,
and
made
a
way
for
us
in
the
Wilderness
,
and
a
path
through
the
Thickets
;
he
laid
low
the
Mountains
before
us
,
and
removed
away
the
Hills
,
and
made
the
crooked
Paths
strait
before
us
,
and
was
a
Refuge
to
us
from
the
Sto●m
,
and
a
Shelter
to
us
from
the
Heat
,
and
as
the
shadow
of
a
Rock
unto
us
in
a
weary
Land
;
and
now
hath
he
brought
us
into
a
right
Way
,
which
leads
to
a
City
of
Habitation
,
to
a
quiet
dwelling
Place
,
where
the
Lord
feeds
his
Flock
,
and
causeth
them
to
lie
down
at
Noon-day
;
oh
marvellous
are
the
Works
of
the
Lord
,
and
the
Living
can
sing
of
his
Mercies
,
his
tender
Compassion
faileth
not
towards
the
House
of
Jacob
,
he
is
a
Father
unto
Israel
,
and
Ephraim
is
his
first
Born
;
let
Judah
shew
forth
is
Praises
,
whose
Mercy
endureth
for
ever
.
Oh
dear
Children
of
my
heavenly
Father
,
remember
we
once
sate
as
by
the
Rivers
of
Babylon
,
and
Weeping
we
thought
upon
Sion
,
Mourning
in
the
sence
of
our
separation
from
her
,
even
as
a
Woman
Mourneth
for
her
only
Son
;
and
then
we
could
not
sing
▪
the
Lords
Song
in
a
strange
Land
,
but
were
as
a
Dove
without
her
Mate
,
and
the
alone
Sparrow
upon
the
House
top
;
as
the
Pelican
in
the
Wilderness
,
and
as
the
alone
Quaile
in
the
stubble
Field
;
as
a
Woman
forsaken
and
g●ieved
in
Spirit
,
asking
the
way
to
Sion
with
our
Faces
thither-ward
,
saying
in
our
hearts
we
would
be
joyned
again
unto
the
Lord
in
a
perpetual
Covenant
never
to
be
broken
.
And
how
graciously
hath
the
Lord
returned
again
our
Captivity
,
as
streams
in
the
South
,
and
hath
brought
us
on
the
way
to
Sion
,
with
Joy
and
Gladness
,
and
our
Sighing
and
Mourning
is
in
measure
fled
away
;
oh
the
Lord
is
worthy
to
be
Feared
,
and
his
holy
Name
is
worthy
to
be
Honoured
,
and
Magnified
in
the
Congregation
of
the
Righteous
,
for
his
Mercies
abids
for
ever
.
Oh
dear
Babes
,
we
who
once
did
sit
in
Darkness
,
have
seen
a
great
and
glorious
Light
,
and
unto
us
who
once
sat
under
the
Region
and
shadow
of
Death
is
the
Light
of
Life
risen
,
and
the
blessed
day
sprung
from
on
high
shineth
in
our
Habitat●on
,
and
the
Lord
is
unto
us
an
everlasting
Light
,
and
let
us
for
evermore
walk
in
his
Light
,
as
becometh
Children
of
Light
,
shining
(
in
our
holy
Lives
and
blameless
unspoted
Conversations
)
as
Lights
in
the
World
,
to
the
Praise
and
Glory
of
God
whose
Goodness
and
Mercy
is
without
end
.
Dear
Babes
,
the
Lord
hath
brought
us
forth
of
the
Prison
House
,
and
lifted
us
up
out
of
the
dark
miery
Dungeon
;
h●
hath
raised
us
out
of
the
Dust
,
and
taken
us
as
from
the
Dunghil
,
to
set
us
among
Princes
,
and
to
inherit
the
seat
of
Renown
,
which
is
the
Chair
of
Humility
.
Oh
the
Height
and
Depth
,
Length
and
Breadth
of
the
Love
,
Goodness
and
Mercy
of
the
Lord
,
let
our
hearts
be
rent
and
broken
before
him
,
and
humbled
in
his
Presence
,
and
let
us
walk
before
his
Holiness
,
and
tremble
at
his
Word
,
and
bow
down
unto
his
holy
Name
,
and
stand
in
awe
of
the
Lord
,
for
whom
Praises
waits
in
Sion
.
Now
seeing
the
Lord
hath
done
so
much
for
our
Souls
,
let
us
wait
upon
him
for
Strength
and
Power
daily
,
thereby
to
endure
,
to
answer
the
largness
of
his
Love
in
all
Obedience
and
Faithfulness
to
him
,
who
hath
broke
our
Bands
asunder
and
snapt
our
Cords
in
●ieces
;
and
now
dear
Friends
,
let
us
stand
stedfast
in
that
Liberty
whereinto
the
Lord
by
his
Truth
hath
brought
us
,
and
not
be
intangled
with
the
Yoke
of
Bondage
as
too
to
many
are
,
who
were
once
made
Free
by
the
Lord
;
oh
how
have
some
for
fear
of
Persecution
started
aside
out
of
the
narrow
Way
,
into
the
broad
Way
;
and
some
for
the
Love
,
Favour
and
Honour
of
this
World
are
departed
from
the
Faith
,
and
have
made
Shipwrack
of
a
good
Conscience
;
and
some
through
the
deceitfulness
of
Riches
;
and
some
through
the
Cares
and
Cumbrances
of
this
World
,
the
Seed
of
God
is
Choked
again
,
and
the
Earth
is
come
over
it
again
,
and
the
World
hath
eaten
up
their
Hearts
,
and
their
Minds
are
become
carnal
again
,
and
the
Goodness
of
the
Lord
is
forgotten
by
them
,
and
the
Spirit
of
Slumber
hath
shut
them
up
;
and
for
these
doth
my
Soul
mourn
in
secret
,
and
travel
for
their
Restoration
,
and
in
the
sence
of
what
is
come
upon
them
,
how
can
we
but
Fear
and
Dread
the
Lord
,
and
Watch
and
Pray
,
and
keep
close
to
the
saving
preserving
power
of
his
Grace
which
hath
kept
us
unto
this
day
,
Praises
to
his
Name
for
ever
.
Oh
Babes
,
we
had
need
continually
to
stand
upon
our
watch
Tower
having
the
Loins
of
our
Minds
girded
up
unto
God
,
with
the
Girdle
of
Truth
,
having
on
the
Breast-plate
of
Righteousness
and
the
Shield
of
Faith
,
the
Helmet
of
Salvation
and
the
Sword
of
the
Spirit
,
the
Word
of
God
,
that
we
may
be
able
to
send
off
the
Fiery
Darts
of
the
Ememy
within
,
and
be
able
to
shun
his
Wiles
,
and
to
keep
out
of
his
Snares
,
that
we
may
never
be
betrayed
of
the
simplicity
and
innocency
of
Truth
as
it
is
in
Jesus
.
Oh
how
hath
he
prevailled
over
some
,
and
drawn
them
into
a
self
separation
,
and
particularily
from
the
Body
which
is
joyned
unto
Christ
the
Head
,
from
whom
the
Body
receiveth
Vertue
,
whereby
every
Member
is
Nourished
,
and
all
comes
to
supply
its
Plaee
and
Office
in
the
Body
,
and
so
is
of
service
to
the
Body
,
as
it
keeps
its
Order
;
and
so
every
Member
being
in
unity
one
with
another
,
are
as
meet
helps
one
to
another
;
and
so
the
Strong
in
some
things
may
help
the
Weak
,
and
the
Weak
in
some
things
may
help
the
Strong
;
so
that
the
Hand
cannot
say
unto
the
Foot
,
I
have
no
need
of
thee
,
but
every
Member
to
be
as
Servants
one
to
another
,
and
all
in
Subjection
to
Christ
the
Head
,
that
the
encrease
of
the
Body
may
be
witnessed
unto
the
Edifying
of
it self
in
Love
.
Dear
Friends
,
if
some
who
under
pretence
of
ceasing
from
Man
,
and
Words
,
and
Forms
,
&c.
doth
absent
from
the
Assemblies
of
the
Righteous
,
and
withdraw
from
the
Meetings
of
the
People
of
God
,
&c.
yet
I
hope
the
Lord
will
preserve
you
from
that
Spirit
,
and
I
hope
the
Love
and
Power
of
his
Truth
will
stir
up
your
Hearts
and
constrain
you
to
be
very
diligent
and
faithful
in
meeting
together
in
the
holy
Fear
and
Name
of
the
Lord
God
,
to
wait
diligently
upon
,
him
in
the
measure
of
his
Light
,
Life
and
Truth
received
,
that
so
ye
may
daily
receive
Teaching
,
Counsel
and
Instruction
from
the
Lord
,
and
receive
of
his
heavenly
Dew
and
Vertue
,
whereby
you
may
daily
be
Quickned
,
Warmed
and
Inlivened
in
the
inward
man
,
and
be
kept
alive
unto
God
,
Green
and
Fresh
as
the
Willow
by
the
Rivers
side
,
as
the
Lillies
in
the
Vallies
,
and
as
a
watered
Garden
,
giving
a
sweet
smell
and
delectable
savour
,
that
the
Blessings
from
on
high
may
be
showred
down
upon
you
more
and
more
,
that
your
Fruit
may
encrease
to
the
praise
of
his
holy
Name
.
So
dear
Babes
;
I
commit
you
unto
the
Preservation
and
Protection
of
the
Lord
God
,
who
in
this
the
day
of
great
Tryals
hath
mightily
stopped
the
raging
Sea
,
and
hath
limited
the
proud
Waves
thereof
,
and
hath
shut
up
her
Floods
as
he
hath
seen
meet
;
oh
let
every
poor
little
tender
honest
hearted
one
put
their
trust
in
the
Lord
,
if
they
be
never
so
Poor
,
Weak
and
Feeble
in
their
own
Eyes
,
let
them
cast
their
care
upon
the
Lord
,
for
he
careth
for
them
,
and
rely
upon
the
arm
of
his
Mercy
,
and
hope
in
his
tender
Bowels
,
and
he
will
be
Strength
to
thee
who
(
without
him
)
art
Weak
;
and
he
will
be
Riches
to
thee
who
(
without
him
)
art
Poor
;
believe
and
trust
thou
in
him
,
and
hearken
not
to
the
false
Accuser
,
neither
joyn
to
the
Consulter
;
but
be
still
and
know
the
Lord
is
God
al-sufficient
for
thee
,
and
all
those
that
lean
upon
him
for
Help
,
and
that
depend
upon
him
for
power
,
he
is
able
and
ready
to
save
in
the
hour
of
Temptation
,
to
support
in
the
day
of
Tryal
,
to
uphold
in
the
greatest
Storm
,
and
to
keep
in
Patience
until
it
be
over
and
gone
,
and
a
Calm
comes
again
.
Dear
Friends
and
Brothren
,
in
that
Love
which
is
unspea●able
doth
my
Soul
dearly
salute
you
and
imbrace
you
,
simpathising
with
you
in
your
Tryals
,
desiring
to
Mourn
with
all
them
that
Mourn
,
and
to
Rejoyce
with
them
that
Rejoyce
,
and
unto
him
you
are
left
,
who
is
able
to
Comfort
the
Mourners
among
you
,
and
is
ready
to
left
up
the
Light
of
his
refreshing
Countenance
upon
the
heavy
hearted
,
and
bowed
down
under
the
burdens
of
the
Righteous
Seed
,
&
to
strengthen
the
feeble
Knees
and
to
heal
the
Wounded
,
and
bind
up
the
broken
in
heart
,
that
they
that
hath
,
or
doth
sit
in
the
solitary
place
of
Mourning
may
be
filled
with
the
Joy
of
the
Lord
,
and
that
they
that
yet
are
bowed
down
with
the
false
Accuser
of
the
Brethren
,
and
lie
mourning
in
the
pit
of
Distrust
,
Unbelief
and
Desparation
,
may
mount
upon
the
wings
of
Faith
,
unto
th●
holy
hill
of
Zion
,
thereon
to
stand
with
the
Lamb
,
and
to
sing
the
new
Song
which
none
can
sing
but
the
Redeemed
of
the
Lord
,
so
be
it
saith
my
Soul
.
From
your
true
Friend
and
Companion
in
the
Faith
and
Patience
,
and
long
Suffering
of
Jesus
,
who
is
often
with
you
in
Spirit
,
though
in
Body
Separated
and
Confined
from
you
,
being
still
close
shut
up
in
Prison
,
with
several
of
the
Lords
Lambs
,
whose
good
Pres●nce
is
with
us
,
blessed
be
h●s
Name
,
upon
whom
we
wait
for
Deliverance
,
believing
that
the
Almighty
God
,
who
delivered
Just
Lot
from
the
Wicked
Sodomits
,
whose
Ungodliness
vexed
his
Righteous
Soul
from
day
to
day
;
and
who
delivered
his
People
of
Old
out
of
Egypt
,
and
freed
them
out
of
the
Hands
of
oppressing
Pharaoh
;
and
who
delivered
David
out
of
the
Paw
of
the
Lyon
,
out
of
the
Paw
of
the
Bear
,
and
from
the
hands
of
the
uncircumcised
Philistine
;
who
delivered
Jeremiah
out
of
the
low
miery
Dungeon
,
and
Daniel
out
of
the
Lyons
D●n
;
who
delivered
the
three
Children
out
of
the
Fiery
Furnace
,
and
Paul
and
Sila●
out
of
the
Prison-House
(
he
the
Living
God
,
who
changeth
not
,
whose
hand
is
not
shortned
that
it
cannot
save
)
will
at
this
day
deliver
his
People
out
of
all
their
Sufferings
,
and
free
them
of
their
Burdens
,
Weights
and
grievous
Oppressions
in
his
own
time
,
Blessed
are
all
they
that
durst
not
look
out
at
time
,
as
some
have
done
to
their
one
hurt
,
but
wait
pariently
upon
the
Lord
,
who
can
change
Times
and
Seasons
as
he
pleaseth
;
who
dwelleth
in
the
Heavens
,
and
also
ruleth
over
the
Kingdoms
of
men
,
and
setteth
up
and
throweth
down
as
he
pleaseth
;
who
seeth
all
the
Works
of
the
Sons
of
men
,
and
pondereth
all
their
doings
;
he
is
a
God
of
Knowledg
,
and
by
him
actions
are
weighed
;
he
excelleth
in
Strength
,
Power
,
Wisdom
and
Mercy

and
his
Throne
is

and
his
Kingdom

who
is
God
over
all
blessed
for

.
Let
none
get
into
a
false
security
because
of
the
present
Calm
,
the
Lord
can
suffer
a
Storm
,
and
make
a
Calm
again
,
when
he
pleaseth
;
let
all
Watch
and
Pray
,
and
Fear
before
the
Lord
,
and
wait
upon
him
to
be
fitted
for-Tryals
,
that
so
no
Storm
may
come
upon
you
before
you
are
aware
of
it
,
and
before
you
be
ready
for
it
.
Dear
Babes
,
Read
and
Feel
my
Love
in
the
Truth
,
and
therein
let
not
your
Love
be
wanting
one
to
another
,
but
live
in
Love
,
Unity
and
Peace
,
and
the
God
of
Love
and
Peace
be
with
you
,
and
his
Blessings
rest
upon
you
,
Farwel

A
Testimony
to
the
True
Light
that
lightens
every
Man
that
comes
into
the
World
.
The
People
that
did
sit
in
Darkness
have
seen
a
great
and
glorious
Light
,
and
unto
those
that
were
under
the
Region
and
Shadow
of
Death
is
the
Light
of
Life
arisen
,
and
the
Blessed
Day
sprung
from
on
high
,
and
shineth
in
their
Tabernacles
;
and
that
which
they
have
seen
,
heard
,
felt
and
tasted
of
,
the
same
they
have
and
do
bear
Testimony
unto
,
though
few
there
be
that
have
received
their
Testimony
.
For
who
hath
believed
our
Report
,
and
unto
whom
is
the
Arm
of
the
Lord
Revealed
.
But
come
ye
,
O
House
of
Israel
,
and
let
us
walk
in
the
Light
of
the
Lord
.
THE
Light
revealed
within
is
the
(
narrow
)
Way
to
Life
Eternal
;
and
the
Door
into
the
Fold
of
Everlasting
Rest
:
The
Light-is
the
Entrance
into
the
fresh
and
green
Pasture
wherein
the
Lord
feedeth
his
Elock
,
and
causeth
them
to
lie
down
in
peace
and
quietness
,
out
of
the
reach
of
the
Beasts
of
prey
:
The
Light
leads
and
draweth
those
that
obey
it
,
out
of
Darkness
,
and
from
under
the
region
and
shadow
of
Death
into
the
Land
of
the
Living
,
there
to
dwell
under
the
region
&
shadow
of
Light
and
Life
:
The
Light
breaks
the
Bonds
of
Sin
in
pieces
,
and
snappeth
●he
Cords
of
Iniquity
asunder
,
and
sets
the
Soul
free
from
the
Bondage
of
Corruption
,
to
serve
the
Lo●d
in
the
Life
of
Righteousness
:
The
Light
draweth
and
leadeth
those
that
believe
in
it
,
and
obey
it
,
out
of
the
Alienation
and
Separation
from
God
,
into
the
Everlasting
Covenant
of
Life
and
Love
,
where
the
Soul
is
in
unity
with
the
Lord
:
The
Light
searcheth
the
Heart
,
and
operateth
in
the
secrets
of
the
Minds
of
those
that
obey
it
,
and
like
unto
Leaven
worketh
the
Heart
and
Mind
into
its
own
nature
,
frame
and
quality
:
The
Light
is
Pure
,
Holy
and
Undefiled
,
and
hath
no
unity
with
the
least
impure
Thought
,
Word
or
Work
,
but
Judgeth
and
Condemns
it
:
The
Light
is
Meek
,
Contrite
,
Lowly
and
Humble
,
&
condemns
that
honour
that
is
corrupt
,
and
is
from
below
,
and
standeth
in
respect
of
Persons
;
and
it
seeketh
the
honour
of
God
only
:
The
Light
Baptizeth
self
into
Death
,
slayes
the
Boaster
,
puts
Flesh
to
silence
,
that
God
may
speak
in
his
Temple
,
who
is
not
to
be
denied
the
Mouth
to
speak
by
:
The
Light
is
the
heavenly
Treasure
in
the
earthen
Vessel
,
that
brings
honour
and
glory
unto
God
:
The
Light
hath
no
fellowship
with
Darkness
;
he
that
saith
he
is
in
the
Light
,
and
hath
unity
with
the
Light
,
and
yet
loveth
and
walketh
in
Darkness
,
lyeth
,
and
the
Light
hath
no
room
,
place
or
entertainment
in
his
heart
:
The
Light
teacheth
those
that
love
it
to
love
Enemies
;
its
fruit
is
Love
,
no
Envy
,
no
Malice
,
no
Hatred
,
no
Bitterness
,
no
Enmity
,
no
Prejudice
,
no
Discord
,
no
Backbiting
,
no
Reviling
,
no
evil
Whispering
proceedeth
from
the
Light
;
the
Light
condemns
it
all
,
and
that
ground
from
whence
it
springs
:
The
Light
hath
no
unity
with
any
unfruitful
works
of
Darkness
,
but
reproves
them
:
The
Light
teacheth
to
render
Good
for
Evil
,
and
to
forgive
Enemies
,
and
to
pray
for
Persecutors
,
and
to
have
love
and
good
will
to
all
People
,
and
to
seek
and
desire
the
Eternal
good
and
wel-fare
of
all
Souls
;
he
that
hates
and
envies
his
Enemies
abideth
not
in
the
Light
;
Envy
is
of
the
Evil-one
;
he
that
saith
he
walketh
in
the
Light
,
and
hates
his
Brother
,
lyeth
,
and
errs
from
the
Truth
:
The
Light
teacheth
to
love
God
with
thy
whole
heart
,
and
thy
Neighbour
,
or
Brother
,
as
thy self
;
He
that
saith
he
loves
God
and
hates
his
Brother
,
is
a
Lyer
,
he
that
loveth
him
that
begetteth
,
doth
also
love
those
that
are
begotten
of
him
;
Love
thinketh
no
Ill
to
Enemies
,
much
less
to
Brethren
:
The
Light
leadeth
his
Children
into
Love
,
Peace
and
Unity
with
God
,
and
one
with
another
in
the
Life
of
Righteousness
;
oh
the
unity
the
unity
of
Brethren
in
the
Light
,
Love
and
Life
of
God
is
exceeding
precious
and
comely
,
it
s
compared
like
to
precious
Oyl
,
poured
on
the
Head
,
that
runs
down
on
the
Beard
,
even
Aarons
Beard
,
that
went
down
to
the
skirts
of
his
Garment
,
and
like
the
dew
of
Hermon
,
and
like
the
dew
that
descended
upon
the
Mountain
of
Sion
,
where
the
Blessing
is
,
and
where
the
Lord
maketh
unto
his
People
a
Feast
of
fat
things
:
The
Light
teacheth
,
and
maketh
to
be
of
one
Heart
,
of
one
Mind
,
of
one
Soul
,
and
(
in
all
those
that
walk
in
it
)
begetteth
one
consent
to
serve
and
worship
the
only
wise
God
,
in
the
one
Spirit
and
one
Truth
:
The
Light
giveth
a
good
Understanding
,
a
clear
Discerning
,
a
sound
Judgment
:
The
Light
leadeth
not
into
strife
and
contention
,
nor
into
rents
▪
divisions
and
parties
,
nor
into
a
particularity
and
self-separation
from
the
Body
,
nor
into
self-conceitedness
,
nor
into
high
airy
notions
,
nor
into
a
climing
up
in
imaginations
after
high
discoveries
;
(
and
so
slight
the
day
of
small
things
,
and
neglect
thy
obedience
to
the
present
gift
,
through
an
expectation
of
something
greater
to
come
yet
unrevealed
;
and
such
,
like
Lucifer
,
mounts
high
in
their
Conceits
and
Imaginations
,
but
will
fall
to
the
side
of
the
Pit
;
)
but
the
Light
condemns
all
this
,
and
judges
that
Spirit
that
leadeth
thereinto
;
which
Spirit
soweth
Discord
among
Brethren
,
which
is
Abomination
;
and
that
Spirit
leadeth
some
to
speak
evil
of
Dignities
,
and
to
dispise
Dominion
,
and
to
rebel
against
the
Order
and
Government
of
the
Lamb
:
The
Light
judgeth
that
Spirit
that
setteth
up
,
and
keepeth
up
(
out
of
the
comly
descent
order
of
Truth
)
that
thing
that
tends
to
strife
and
breaking
unity
among
Brethren
:
The
Light
teacheth
those
that
love
it
,
to
seek
and
endeavour
for
Love
,
Peace
and
Unity
among
Brethren
,
with
all
Self-denial
:
The
Light
teacheth
to
take
away
the
occasion
of
stumbling
in
thy
Brothers
way
:
The
Light
teacheth
to
be
very
wary
and
careful
of
giving
Enemies
advantage
to
strengthen
themselves
against
Truth
,
and
the
Wicked
occasion
to
reproach
it
,
and
those
that
live
in
it
:
The
Light
teaches
to
live
and
walk
in
a
holy
godly
Life
,
and
blameless
Conversation
,
as
becometh
the
Gospel
of
Truth
,
and
as
becometh
Saints
of
the
Most
High
:
The
Light
,
in
those
that
love
it
,
crucifieth
the
Flesh
with
the
lusts
and
affections
thereof
,
and
teacheth
those
that
love
it
,
how
to
possess
their
Vessels
in
Sanctification
and
Honour
:
The
Light
crucifieth
the
Heart
unto
the
World
and
worldly
things
,
and
redeemeth
the
Mind
from
the
Earth
and
earthly
things
:
and
teacheth
to
use
the
World
as
if
thou
usedst
it
not
:
The
Light
draweth
the
Mind
out
of
the
many
things
(
where
all
offend
)
into
the
one
thing
needful
,
which
giveth
not
,
nor
receiveth
an
offence
,
but
judges
the
offences
,
and
that
ground
from
whence
they
come
:
The
Light
is
Supernatural
,
and
is
to
over-rule
the
Naturals
,
and
to
keep
them
within
the
bonds
of
the
Government
of
Truth
,
and
to
limit
the
affectionate
part
from
leading
and
drawing
the
Heart
and
Mind
into
things
below
,
into
created
Objects
,
and
into
Bondage
to
the
cares
of
this
Life
,
and
troubles
and
cumbrances
of
this
World
,
which
doth
not
profit
but
hinder
to
God-ward
:
The
Light
is
the
Girdle
of
the
Loins
,
of
the
Mind
,
of
those
that
love
it
,
to
gird
up
their
Hearts
and
Minds
unto
God
,
that
in
him
their
peace
may
be
perfect
:
The
Light
is
a
stop
to
those
Thoughts
which
are
reproveable
by
it
:
The
Light
is
a
Bridle
to
the
Tongue
,
and
they
that
know
it
so
to
be
,
dare
not
say
(
in
a
self-will
)
our
Tongues
are
our
own
,
and
we
will
speak
:
The
Light
ruleth
over
the
Souls
and
Bodies
of
those
that
believe
in
,
love
,
follow
and
obey
it
,
and
teacheth
and
enableth
such
to
yield
their
Members
Servants
of
Righteousness
unto
God
,
even
as
they
have
(
when
they
were
Servants
to
Sin
)
yeilded
their
Members
Servants
to
Unrighteousness
,
and
of
Iniquity
unto
Iniquity
:
The
Light
is
the
Author
of
the
true
and
living
Faith
,
which
giveth
victory
over
the
World
,
and
is
a
shield
unto
the
Soul
to
fend
off
the
fiery
darts
of
the
Devil
,
and
worketh
by
Love
to
the
purifying
of
the
Heart
:
The
Light
is
the
Author
to
the
true
Hope
,
which
is
an
Anchor
unto
the
Soul
,
sure
and
stedfast
,
and
is
held
in
a
pure
Conscience
void
of
Offence
towards
God
and
Man
:
The
Light
is
the
Author
of
true
Patience
,
long
Suffering
,
Forbearance
,
Forgiveness
and
Contentedness
;
it
teacheth
to
be
patient
in
all
Tryals
,
Tribulations
,
Troubles
Straits
and
Difficulties
,
and
teacheth
in
all
conditions
to
be
contented
,
and
not
to
murmur
against
the
Lord
whatsoever
he
permit
to
come
to
pass
:
The
Light
teacheth
his
Children
to
love
one
another
fervently
,
with
a
clean
heart
;
oh
,
how
good
is
God
to
Israel
,
to
them
that
are
of
a
clean
heart
:
The
Light
teacheth
to
endeavour
to
keep
the
unity
of
the
Spirit
in
the
bond
of
Peace
:
The
Light
teacheth
the
Younger
to
yield
and
submit
themselves
to
the
Elder
,
in
the
Lord
,
and
to
hearken
unto
Counsel
,
Instruction
and
Reproof
;
he
teacheth
all
his
Children
to
be
subject
one
to
another
;
he
cloathes
them
with
Humility
,
ado●neth
them
with
Meekness
,
and
beautifies
them
with
lowliness
of
Spirit
:
The
Light
teacheth
the
Strongest
to
condesend
to
the
Weakest
,
and
to
serve
the
Meanest
in
Love
,
to
bear
with
the
infirmities
of
the
Feeble
,
to
help
and
hold
up
the
Halting
,
and
to
draw
forward
the
backward
with
the
Cords
of
Love
,
and
to
cast
a
Garment
over
thy
Brothers
Nakedness
:
The
Light
in
those
that
love
it
,
puts
out
the
eye
that
watcheth
for
evil
,
and
condemneth
that
part
that
boasteth
it self
,
and
rejoyceth
at
anothers
fall
,
and
strengthens
it self
with
prejudice
against
another
through
his
failing
,
which
thing
is
as
most
abominable
filth
in
the
pure
eye
of
the
Light
:
The
Light
doth
not
countenance
evil
in
any
,
but
judges
and
discovers
it
,
though
hid
under
a
profession
of
Truth
The
Light
is
like
unto
the
Touchstone
that
trys
Silver
from
Tin
,
it
tryeth
and
discovereth
the
Good
from
the
Bad
;
it
tryeth
Motions
,
Thoughts
,
Words
,
Works
and
Spirits
:
The
Light
is
a
Stone
which
God
hath
laid
in
Sion
,
Elect
and
Precious
,
which
they
that
believe
,
shall
not
be
ashamed
,
and
unto
those
that
believe
he
is
very
Precious
;
but
unto
them
that
believe
not
,
he
is
as
a
Stone
of
stumbling
,
and
a
Rock
of
offence
,
at
whom
the
seeming
wise
Master-Builders
have
,
and
do
stumble
;
and
he
whom
t●●●ise
Professors
of
this
Age
,
and
great
Rabbies
,
and
Learned
Orators
set
at
nought
,
the
same
is
become
the
Head
and
Chief
Corner
Stone
in
Gods
House
;
by
the
vertue
of
which
Stone
they
that
b●●ieve
in
him
are
quickened
,
and
made
living
Stones
;
meet
to
be
joyned
unto
him
(
the
Light
)
in
whom
the
Building
being
fitly
framed
together
,
groweth
up
unto
an
holy
Temple
in
the
Lord
:
The
Light
was
in
the
beginning
before
the
Darkness
was
,
and
is
now
made
manifest
to
extinguish
the
Darkness
,
and
to
fill
the
dark
corners
of
the
Earth
with
the
bright
beams
of
his
Glory
;
he
is
the
First
and
the
Last
;
he
was
before
Time
,
and
will
remain
when
that
which
in
time
is
passed
away
:
The
Light
is
the
Beginning
and
the
End
,
the
Foundation
and
Top-stone
,
the
Root
and
Off-spring
of
David
,
and
the
Bright
Morning-Star
,
whose
blessed
Day
Abraham
saw
,
and
was
glad
;
he
dwelt
among
the
seven
golden
Candlesticks
,
and
was
with
the
Church
in
the
Wilderness
,
in
the
days
of
old
:
He
is
the
Light
of
the
holy
City
,
New-Jerusalem
,
which
John
(
in
the
Lords
Day
)
saw
coming
down
from
God
,
prepared
as
a
Bride
adorned
for
her
Husband
:
The
Light
giveth
the
Churches
to
know
,
that
it
is
he
that
searcheth
the
Heart
,
and
tryeth
the
Reins
,
from
whom
no
Hypocrite
in
Sio●
can
be
hid
;
who
said
,
I
come
quickly
,
and
my
Reward
is
with
me
,
to
give
unto
every
one
according
as
his
Work
But
who
shall
abide
the
Day
of
his
Coming
,
(
in
which
the
Heavens
pass
away
with
a
great
noise
,
and
the
Elements
melt
with
fervent
heat
)
and
who
shall
stand
when
he
appeareth
,
who
is
like
Refiners
Fire
,
and
like
Fullers
Soap
,
purifying
his
Sanctuary
,
and
cleansing
his
Temple
in
which
he
delights
to
dwell
?
He
is
the
Word
that
was
in
the
beginning
,
by
whom
all
things
were
made
that
was
made
;
and
in
him
there
is
Life
,
and
his
Life
is
the
Light
of
men
;
and
he
is
the
true
L●ght
that
lighteth
every
man
that
cometh
into
the
World
;
he
is
the
Express
Image
of
his
Fathers
Glory
,
and
is
called
the
Son
of
God
,
in
whom
dwelleth
all
fulness
of
Joy
,
Happiness
and
Eternal
Felicity
;
who
is
God
over
all
,
and
above
all
,
blessed
,
blessed
for
ever
and
evermore
,
Amen
.

Amen

To

DEar
Suffering

,
whom
the
Wolves
seek
to
Rend
and
Devour
,
in
the
tender
Love
of
the
great
Shepherd
and
Bishop
of
your
Souls
,
is
my
heart
opened
to
you
,
to
visit
you
with
a
few
Lines
,
and
in
the
name
of
my
God
and
your
God
,
my
Father
and
your
Father
,
I
say
unto
you
,
he
whom
you
serve
hath
seen
your
Afflictions
,
and
hath
beheld
your
Sufferings
,
and
hath
took
notice
of
your
Burdens
,
and
cognizence
of
your
grievous
Oppressions
,
and
hath
heard
your
Groanings
,
and
hath
beheld
your
Tears
;
he
assuredly
will
in
his
own
time
rebuke
your
Enemies
,
and
plead
your
innocent
Cause
with
your
Oppressors
,
and
ease
you
of
,
and
free
you
from
your
great
Afflictions
;
therefore
,
dear
suffering
Lambs
of
my
heavenly
Father
,
lift
up
your
Heads
in
the
Name
of
the
Lord
God
,
and
take
Courage
and
be
Strong
in
his
Power
and
Truth
which
is
in
you
,
and
with
you
,
and
on
your
sides
,
and
it
is
the
Truth
that
shall
prevail
against
all
its
Enemies
,
and
its
Opposers
shall
be
Confounded
,
and
the
Truth
of
our
God
shall
Flourish
over
all
;
therefore
,
dear
Hearts
,
still
cleave
to
the
precious
Truth
of
God
made
known
unto
you
,
and
let
nothing
separate
you
from
it
;
oh
,
blessed
be
the
Lord
that
he
hath
begotten
such
a
Love
in
you
to
him
and
his
Truth
,
that
such
is
your
love
thereunto
,
that
you
are
willing
to
undergo
Reproaches
,
Abuses
and
spoyling
of
your
Goods
,
Imprisonment
,
and
to
be
separated
from
your
Friends
and
Relations
for
Truths
sake
;
oh
,
dear
Lambs
,
great
is
your
Reward
if
you
abide
to
the
end
,
and
faint
not
in
well
doing
;
oh
,
my
heart
is
open
to
you
in
the
tender
Love
and
Bowels
of
Emanuel
,
and
my
soul
is
refreshed
in
your
Faithfulness
,
and
though
many
of
your
Faces
I
never
saw
,
yet
I
am
one
with
you
in
your
Sufferings
,
wherein
my
soul
simpathiseth
with
you
,
and
hath
unity
with
your
Testimony
for
the
Lord
,
and
my
spirit
doth
praise
the
Lord
,
the
God
of
your
Salvation
,
on
your
behalf
,
in
that
he
hath
so
mightily
upheld
you
,
and
born
you
up
in
his
Arms
,
in
the
midst
of
your
Tryals
;
though
you
of
your selves
are
Weak
,
yet
the
Lord
is
Strong
,
whose
Strength
you
know
by
experience
is
manifested
in
Weakness
;
therefore
trust
hope
and
depend
you
upon
the
Lord
forever
,
who
is
and
will
be
your
exceeding
great
reward
;
cast
your
care
upon
him
,
for
he
your
God
careth
for
you
and
yours
;
he
is
a
Father
to
the
Fatherless
,
and
a
Husband
to
the
Widow
,
he
is
the
Comforter
of
the
Comfortless
,
and
gladeth
the
heavy
hearted
.
Oh
,
be
still
,
quiet
,
patient
and
contented
in
your
Minds
;
and
wait
upon
the
Lord
,
and
be
not
at
all
terrifyed
by
your
Adversaries
;
but
in
the
lowly
fear
of
the
Lord
God
rejoyce
in
that
he
hath
counted
you
worthy
,
not
only
to
believe
,
but
to
suffer
for
his
Name
sake
;
oh
,
your
Reward
no
man
can
take
away
,
as
you
continue
faithful
to
the
Lord
;
dear
Lambs
,
my
Bowels
yearn
towards
you
,
and
in
the
Fathers
love
I
salute
you
,
desiring
that
Grace
,
Mercy
and
Peace
may
rest
upon
you
,
and
the
blessing
of
the
most
High
distil
upon
you
as
dew
upon
the
tender
Herbs
,
that
you
,
ye
tender
Plants
,
may
grow
and
be
like
Willows
by
the
Water
Courses
,
and
as
Cedars
by
the
Rivers
side
,
that
your
Leaf
may
not
wither
,
neither
cease
bearing
Fruit
;
so
dear
suffering
Lambs
,
as
none
is
to
be
(
through
Joy
)
Exalted
above
what
is
meet
,
so
none
(
through
Sorrow
)
is
to
be
Dejected
,
or
cast
down
,
but
every
one
,
in
all
Conditions
,
is
to
learn
to
be
Contented
with
the
will
of
the
Lord
,
and
none
to
murmur
against
the
Lord
,
because
of
the
Prosperity
of
the
Wicked
,
and
Advancement
of
Sions
Enemies
;
for
though
they
seem
to
Fl●u●ish
like
a
green
Bay-Tree
,
yet
they
will
become
like
Grass
upon
the
House
top
,
that
withereth
before
it
is
grown
up
.
So
unto
the
Lord
God
I
commit
you
,
who
careth
for
all
his
,
and
is
a
present
help
in
the
time
of
need
,
and
leaveth
not
his
Sheep
and
Lambs
when
the
Wolves
come
to
Devour
;
but
he
the
mighty
God
standeth
by
his
People
,
and
sighteth
for
mount
Sion
,
and
defends
the
Hills
thereof
,
and
will
put
to
flight
her
Enemies
,
and
with
the
Breath
of
his
Mouth
expel
and
scatter
the
Clouds
,
Fogs
and
Mists
that
ariseth
out
of
the
bottomless
pit
of
Darkness
;
that
then
,
oh
Sion
,
thy
Glory
may
appear
as
the
Morning
without
Clouds
,
and
as
the
Sun
in
its
Brightness
thy
Beauty
may
shine
forth
,
and
thy
Enemies
be
Astonished
and
Confounded
forever
.
This
is
the
salutation
of
my
Love
,
who
am
your
Fellow
Sufferer
and
Companion
,
in
the
Patience
and
Tribulation
of
Jesus
,
the
Lord
God
be
with
you
,
and
support
the
weak
and
little
ones
among
you
,
and
keep
you
all
Faithful
to
the
end
,
and
preserve
you
in
Love
and
Unity
one
with
another

Amen

Dearly
Beloved
FRiends
,
Brethren
and
Sisters
in
the
Heavenly
Spiritual
Relation
of
the
Immortal
Incorruptible
Seed
of
Life
Eternal
,
of
which
you
are
born
again
,
and
become
Heirs
of
an
Inheritance
that
is
Everlasting
,
by
Faith
in
Christ
Jesus
,
in
and
from
whom
Joy
and
Peace
,
Mercy
and
Grace
be
multiplyed
in
and
unto
all
your

Amen
.
Blessed
be
God
the
Father
of
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ
,
who
through
his
abundant
Mercy
and
free
Grace
hath
called
us
,
and
with
the
Arms
of
his
Everlasting
Kindness
hath
gathered
us
,
and
by
his
Almighty
Power
hath
raised
us
up
,
to
be
unto
him
a
People
,
to
live
unto
him
in
his
Life
,
and
to
walk
before
him
in
Truth
and
Righteousness
,
and
to
Serve
and
Worship
him
in
his
own
Way
and
Spirit
,
and
to
bear
Testimony
thereunto
,
and
against
the
contrary
,
in
Word
and
Doctrine
,
in
Life
and
Conversation
;
and
for
our
Testimonies
sake
the
Nations
are
angry
with
us
,
and
the
Earth
is
moved
,
and
the
Waters
troubled
,
and
swell
against
us
,
as
if
we
should
be
swollowed
up
,
and
wholly
over-whelmed
with
the
Floods
of
the
Wrath
of
the
Dragon
,
who
seeks
to
drown
the
blessed
and
glorious
appearance
of
the
man
Child
;
who
is
to
rule
the
Nations
in
Justice
,
in
Mercy
,
in
Judgment
,
in
Righteousness
and
Truth
;
well
,
my
dear
Friends
,
though
at
this
day
we
are
a
suffering
People
,
and
as
it
were
Killed
all
the
day
long
,
and
appointed
Sheep
for
the
Slaughter
,
and
are
set
as
a
prey
for
the
Beast
of
the
Field
,
and
Lyons
of
the
Forrest
,
and
though
the
Jaws
of
Death
,
and
Gates
of
Hell
seem
to
be
opened
wide
against
us
,
as
if
we
should
be
swallowed
up
quick
,
and
be
extinguished
from
being
a
People
;
yet
notwithstanding
we
can
rejoyce
in
the
Lord
our
God
,
because
our
sufferings
are
infflicted
upon
us
not
for
evil
doing
,
but
for
well
doing
,
and
our
Enemies
have
found
no
just
Cause
given
them
of
us
,
thus
to
give
us
up
to
the
Spoylers
,
and
into
the
hands
of
Wicked
,
Ungodly
,
Unreasonable
men
;
but
altogether
without
a
Cause
given
of
us
,
have
they
taken
an
occasion
against
us
(
as
Daniel's
Persecutors
did
against
him
)
concerning
the
Law
,
Commands
and
Worship
of
our
God
,
so
that
at
this
day
our
God
knows
it
,
Angels
and
Men
know
it
,
and
our
Enemies
one
day
shall
be
made
to
know
it
to
their
sorrow
,
that
we
are
a
Suffering
Persecuted
People
,
singly
for
our
Conscience
towards
God
,
and
for
our
Obedience
and
Faithfulness
to
him
;
therefore
,
my
dearly
beloved
Ones
,
rejoyce
in
the
Lord
,
and
lift
up
your
Heads
in
his
Name
,
over
all
the
Wrath
and
Cruelty
of
the
Ungodly
,
and
think
not
strange
concerning
the
Fiery
Tryals
that
are
come
to
try
you
,
and
to
prove
your
Love
to
God
his
Way
and
Truth
,
as
though
some
strange
thing
had
happened
unto
you
;
but
rejoyce
in
the
lowly
fear
of
the
Lord
,
inasmuch
as
you
are
made
partakers
of
the
Sufferings
of
the
Seed
,
that
when
its
glory
shall
be
more
and
more
revealed
in
and
upon
your
Souls
,
you
may
rejoyce
with
exceeding
Joy
,
in
that
you
suffer
on
Gods
account
,
not
as
Murderers
and
Evil
doers
;
but
as
true
Christians
,
and
Followers
of
Christ
Jesus
,
and
true
Worshipers
of
the
God
of
Daniel
in
Spirit
and
in
Truth
.
And
my
dear
Friends
,
if
ye
suffer
the
spoyling
of
your
Goods
,
Bonds
,
Banishment
or
Death
for
meeting
together
in
the
Fear
and
Name
of
the
Lord
,
to
wait
upon
him
,
and
for
performing
you
Duty
and
Obedience
unto
him
,
and
for
keeping
of
your
Consciences
void
of
offence
towards
him
,
truly
the
Cause
is
good
,
and
worth
the
suffering
for
,
it
is
not
our
own
Cause
,
but
the
Lords
;
therefore
let
us
commit
it
unto
him
unto
whom
we
c●n
make
our
Appeal
,
and
spread
our
Complaint
before
him
,
and
pour
forth
our
Cries
unto
him
who
se●th
our
Troubles
,
and
beholdeth
the
grievous
Oppression
,
and
manifold
Burdens
,
Afflictions
and
Sufferings
of
his
Poor
,
Abused
,
Tribulated
,
Persecuted
People
,
whose
innocent
Cause
he
the
Almighty
Jevovah
,
of
worm
Jacob
,
will
assuredly
plead
for
them
,
against
their
Enemies
,
and
wo
will
be
to
the
Oppressors
and
Spoylers
of
Gods
Heritage
.
Dear
suffering
Lambs
,
cast
your
Care
upon
the
Lord
,
he
careth
for
you
,
and
for
your
little
ones
,
and
hold
fast
Faith
and
a
good
Conscience
,
whatever
you
suffer
,
hold
fast
the
Truth
you
have
received
that
none
may
take
your
Crown
of
Joy
,
Comfort
,
Peace
and
Blessing
from
you
,
and
keep
in
the
meekness
,
patience
and
long
suffering
of
Jesus
,
suffering
the
spoyling
of
your
Goods
Joyfully
,
glorifying
the
Lord
in
suffering
,
according
to
his
will
,
giving
him
Thanks
and
Praise
,
instead
of
Murmuring
,
that
he
hath
counted
you
worthy
not
only
to
Believe
,
but
also
to
Suffer
for
his
blessed
Name
sake
,
knowing
in
your selves
you
have
in
Heaven
a
far
better
induring
substance
;
therefore
cast
not
away
your
Faith
,
Hope
and
Confidence
which
hath
such
great
Recompence
of
Reward
;
but
truly
Friends
you
have
need
to
abide
in
the
patient
long
suffering
Spirit
of
Jesus
,
that
after
you
have
done
the
will
of
God
,
and
suffered
for
the
same
,
you
may
receive
the
Promise
;
if
any
man
faint
,
and
turn
back
,
he
looses
his
reward
of
his
sufferings
;
but
I
hope
,
my
dear
Friends
,
you
are
not
of
the
number
of
those
that
turn
back
unto
Perdition
,
but
of
them
that
believe
,
and
receive
the
end
of
your
hope
,
even
the
Salvation
of
your
Souls
.
And
dear
Friends
;
take
Courage
,
and
put
on
Strength
,
and
lift
up
your
Heads
in
the
Name
of
the
Lord
,
who
is
with
his
People
,
and
from
them
he
will
not
go
,
he
is
on
our
side
,
and
taketh
our
part
,
we
know
it
,
and
our
Enemies
will
feel
it
to
their
sorrow
,
he
will
fight
for
us
,
let
us
hold
our
peace
,
and
be
still
from
reasoning
with
Flesh
and
Blood
,
though
he
suffer
us
to
be
tryed
,
as
Gold
is
tryed
in
the
Fire
,
yet
not
wholly
to
be
Destroyed
,
after
he
hath
done
such
great
things
for
us
,
and
appeared
on
our
behalf
,
and
hath
manifested
himself
to
be
our
God
,
and
we
to
be
his
People
,
and
after
he
hath
Blessed
us
,
and
Prospered
us
,
and
Preserved
us
through
all
the
Wrath
and
Cruelty
of
men
hitherto
,
and
now
hath
made
us
a
Family
like
a
Flock
,
and
put
his
Jewels
upon
us
,
and
Cloathed
us
with
the
Garment
of
Salvation
,
and
Arayed
us
with
the
Robe
of
Righteousness
,
and
Beautified
us
with
his
Comliness
,
and
Betrothed
us
unto
Himself
,
in
Mercy
,
in
Judgment
,
in
Righteousness
and
in
Truth
;
will
he
now
suffer
us
wholly
to
be
extinguished
from
being
a
People
?
shall
our
Enemies
have
their
full
desires
of
us
,
to
root
us
out
wholly
from
amongst
them
,
that
they
may
blaspheme
our
God
,
and
say
he
was
not
able
to
Deliver
them
out
of
our
hand
?
surely
no
,
remember
what
Balack
King
of
Moab
had
Consulted
,
&
what
Balaam
Son
of
Beor
answered
him
,
even
from
Shittim
unto
Gilgal
,
that
you
may
know
the
Righteousness
of
the
Lord
,
who
keepeth
Covenant
with
his
People
,
neither
doth
his
tender
Compassions
fail
unto
the
House
of
Jacob
;
therefore
let
us
trust
in
the
God
of
our
hope
;
who
delivered
Just
Lot
from
the
vexation
of
the
wicked
Sodomits
,
and
his
Poor
Oppressed
Israel
out
of
the
hand
of
cruel
Pharaoh
;
who
delivered
David
from
the
paw
of
the
Bear
,
and
the
paw
of
the
Lyon
,
and
from
the
hand
of
the
uncircumcised
Philistine
;
who
delivered
Daniel
out
of
the
Lyons-Den
,
and
the
three
Children
out
of
the
Fiery
Furnace
;
good
Jeremiah
out
of
the
low
miery
Dungeon
,
and
●●ul
and
Silas
out
of
the
Prison-House
;
he
the
Living
God
,
whose
Arm
is
not
shortned
,
nor
abated
in
Strength
,
Power
and
Might
,
will
assuredly
deliver
his
oppressed
People
at
this
day
,
in
his
own
time
,
when
he
hath
tryed
them
throughly
,
and
hath
Purged
his
Gold
,
and
refined
his
Silver
,
and
separated
the
Chaff
from
his
Wheat
,
and
made
up
his
precious
Jewels
,
and
manifested
the
approved
in
his
sight
,
then
will
he
arise
,
as
in
Mount
Paron
,
and
be
wrath
,
as
in
the
Valley
of
Gideon
;
to
bring
to
pass
his
Work
,
his
strange
Work
,
at
the
hearing
thereof
,
the
Ears
of
many
doth
and
shall
Tingle
,
and
the
Heathen
be
Astonished
and
Confounded
,
and
fall
before
the
glorious
Majesty
of
the
God
of
worm
Jacob
;
then
shall
●ion
Rejoyce
,
and
Israel
be
right
Glad
,
and
the
Mourners
be
Comforted
,
and
the
heavy
Hearts
be
Refreshed
,
and
the
Oppressed
Delivered
from
the
Yoak
.
The
Lord
God
Almighty
hasten
the
Accomplishment
of
his
own
Work
,
in
his
own
time
,
to
his
own
Glory

Amen

So
my

beloved
Friends
,
my

is
open
to
you
,
and
my
Soul
simpathises
with
you
in
your
Sufferings
,
and
my
Crys
and
Prayers
are
to
the
Lord
for
you
,
knowing
that
great
and
many
are
your
Tryals
that
doth
att●nd
many
of
you
;
poor

,
how
willingly
could
I
help
you
.
But
unto
the
Lord
the
Great
Shepherd
and
Bishop
of
your
Souls
,
the
Keeper
of
the
Flock
of
Israel
,
I
must
commit
you
,
and
resign
you
up
to
him
who
careth
for
you
,
and
watcheth
over
you
,
and
intends
good
unto
you
;
for
he
loveth
you
,
though
he
suffers
hard
things
to
befall
you
,
which
will
work
for
your
good
,
and
bring
many
of
you
more
neerer
to
the
Lord
,
and
make
you
more
and
more
like
him
;
that
though
the
Hills
shall
be
removed
,
and
the
Mountains
depart
,
yet
his
Everlasting
Kindness
shall
not
be
removed
,
neither
the
Covenant
of
his
Peace
be
taken
from
you
his
People
,
that
keep
Covenant
with
him
your
God
;
so
the
Almighty
be
with
you
,
in
all
your
Tryals
and
Temptations
,
and
his
Arms
of
tender
mercy
bear
up
all
the
Weak
and
Little
Ones
among
you
,
whose
desires
are
Upright
before
him
,
that
none
such
may
fall
through
the
Fury
of
the
Adversary
,
and
Temptations
of
the
Enemy
;
but
that
you
all
may
be
kept
by
the
power
of
your
God
,
through
Faith
in
his
Everlasting
Name
,
to
the
end
,
to
finish
your
Testimony
in
Faithfulness
,
with
Joy
,
to
his
Glory
,
and
your
Endless
Peace
,
Happiness
and
Filicity
in
him
the
God
of
your
Hope
,
Amen
.
The
God
of
Peace
be
with
you
,
and
Comfort
you
with
his
Love
;
oh
,
Lord
God
Everlasting
,
keep
all
thy
dear
People
in
this
hour
and
power
of
Darkness
,
hide
them
in
the
hollow
of
thy
Hand
,
and
let
the
Banner
of
thy
Love
be
over
them
,
dispose
of
them
,
O
Lord
,
as
seemeth
good
unto
thee
;
only
let
not
thy
Faithfulness
to
them
,
and
their
Faith
to
thee
be
wanting
,
and
let
them
be
tendered
by
thee
,
as
the
first
Fruits
unto
thee
,
after
the
long
Night
of
Apostacy
,
that
eclipsed
thy
Glory
from
the
face
of
the
Earth
:
My
dear
love
remains
with
you
;

to
believe

wait
for

WHen
I
was
but
young
in
Years
,
the
Lord
God
(
of
Light
,
Life
and
Power
,
of
tender
Love
,
of
infinite
Compassion
and
everlasting
bowels
of
Mercy
)
was
pleased
then
(
in
some
measure
)
to
visit
me
by
or
with
his
pure
Light
in
my
own
Conscience
,
which
many
a
time
did
check
and
reprove
me
for
my
Sins
,
and
brought
my
Evil-doings
to
my
remembrance
,
and
judged
me
in
my
own
Heart
for
Evil
,
and
sometimes
brought
trouble
upon
my
Mind
for
my
Sins
,
but
I
was
not
then
sensible
that
it
was
the
Light
of
Christ
Jesus
(
who
is
the
true
Light
that
lighteth
every
man
that
cometh
into
the
World
)
which
then
in
my
own
Conscience
did
check
,
reprove
and
judge
me
for
Evil
,
and
sometimes
broke
my
false
ease
and
rest
in
Sin
;
insomuch
as
I
could
not
go
on
in
Sin
,
Wildness
and
Vanity
,
without
being
somewhat
troubled
,
terrified
and
reproved
for
my
Sin
at
one
time
or
other
;
though
when
I
was
among
idle
Children
,
voic
of
the
fear
of
God
,
I
ran
into
Sin
and
Wickedness
with
them
;
and
for
the
present
time
,
I
acted
in
Sin
with
great
Delight
and
Joy
;
but
when
I
came
to
be
still
,
quiet
and
alone
in
the
Fields
,
or
elsewhere
;
then
would
the
pure
Witness
of
God
arise
in
me
with
its
reproofs
,
and
set
my
Sins
in
order
before
me
,
and
brought
my
Evil
Doings
to
my
remembrance
,
which
I
had
acted
out
of
the
pure
fear
of
the
Lord
God
,
and
then
Trouble
for
a
time
took
hold
on
me
,
and
Sin
became
my
burden
;
but
I
soon
got
from
under
that
Burden
,
at
Ease
and
Liberty
again
,
and
ran
into
Sin
and
Vanity
again
;
and
thus
year
after
year
I
went
on
in
rebellion
against
the
Witness
of
God
in
my
own
Conscience
,
taking
delight
and
pleasure
in
those
things
I
knew
were
Evil
;
yet
the
Lord
God
(
whose
tender
Bowels
of
Pity
and
Compassion
did
then
in
Mercy
hover
over
me
for
good
to
me
in
that
day
)
did
sometimes
stop
me
from
speaking
and
acting
that
Evil
I
intended
to
speak
or
do
,
&
preserved
me
out
of
many
gross
Evils
,
which
many
others
were
addicted
unto
,
and
overcome
with
.
And
in
those
days
when
I
was
alone
in
the
Fields
I
cryed
and
prayed
unto
the
Lord
,
and
desires
were
stirring
in
me
after
the
knowledge
of
him
,
his
Way
and
Truth
;
but
I
prayed
to
a
God
I
knew
not
;
I
imagined
a
God
afar
off
;
and
did
not
then
know
it
was
the
Lord
that
did
search
my
Heart
,
and
discovered
unto
me
my
Thoughts
,
and
judged
me
for
Sin
;
I
then
knew
not
that
that
was
the
Light
,
Way
and
Truth
of
God
in
my
own
Heart
,
which
sometimes
begot
desires
in
me
to
know
the
Truth
,
and
to
walk
therein
;
but
my
mind
was
abroad
(
as
it
is
with
many
at
this
day
,
who
have
desires
after
Truth
and
Righteousness
,
but
are
seeking
abroad
in
Carnal
Ordinances
,
Forms
,
Likenesses
,
Beggarly
Elements
,
Rudiments
of
the
World
,
Ceremonies
and
Traditions
of
men
)
and
knew
not
that
that
in
me
was
Truth
,
which
sometimes
stopt
me
from
Lying
and
Swearing
;
and
when
I
knowingly
told
a
Lye
,
it
would
accuse
me
,
when
no
man
could
accuse
me
for
it
;
and
as
I
grew
in
years
,
for
I
may
truly
say
,
there
was
something
stirring
in
me
(
at
times
)
after
the
Lord
ever
since
I
was
6
or
7
years
of
Age
,
and
when
I
came
to
be
about
14
years
old
,
and
to
be
a
Prentize
,
and
in
outward
Thraldom
and
Bondage
,
it
pleased
the
God
of
infinite
loving-kindness
,
to
visit
me
more
then
formerly
,
by
his
pure
Light
and
Spirit
,
which
encreased
in
striving
with
me
daily
,
that
I
scarce
knowingly
committed
any
Evil
,
but
the
Light
would
soon
judge
me
for
it
;
yea
,
the
Lord
God
with
his
pure
Light
and
Gift
did
persue
me
hard
,
and
followed
me
close
,
calling
to
me
in
my
Heart
,
with
his
still
Voice
,
to
come
out
of
Sin
,
out
of
evil
Words
and
Works
;
but
I
(
like
Samuel
when
he
was
a
Child
)
knew
not
that
it
was
the
Lord
that
did
call
;
for
he
was
(
though
near
me
)
as
a
Stranger
to
me
;
and
I
knew
not
his
Voice
,
but
went
ast●ay
as
a
wandering
Sheep
,
yet
had
I
desires
to
know
the
way
to
the
●old
,
and
to
know
where
the
Lord
feedeth
his
Flook
,
and
causeth
them
to
lie
down
in
Peace
,
Quietness
&
Rest
,
where
none
can
make
afraid
;
for
indeed
it
was
Rest
my
Soul
wanted
,
and
true
Peace
in
God
my
Soul
many
a
time
longed
for
,
and
panted
after
;
for
,
oh
,
I
was
oftentimes
wounded
,
wounded
,
wounded
because
of
Sin
,
and
for
want
of
the
enjoyment
of
the
Love
and
Peace
of
God
,
I
went
many
a
time
bowed
down
in
Spirit
day
after
day
,
with
an
a
king
Mind
,
grieved
Soul
and
wounded
Conscience
,
with
my
Eyes
full
of
Tears
,
and
my
Heart
full
of
Sighing
,
thinking
in
my
Heart
there
was
few
(
if
any
)
in
my
State
and
Condition
;
sometimes
wishing
,
and
saying
in
my
Heart
,
Oh
,
that
I
were
in
a
desert
solitary
place
outwardly
(
for
so
was
my
condition
inwardly
)
where
no
man
inhabits
,
where
I
might
have
Mourned
and
Wept
out
my
fill
,
and
have
poured
out
my
Tears
unto
the
tender
God
of
tender
Bowels
of
Mercy
,
and
have
spread
my
Complaints
before
him
whom
my
Soul
did
then
sometimes
,
in
measure
,
long
,
thirst
and
pant
after
,
even
as
the
Hart
panteth
after
the
water
Brooks
:
And
many
a
time
I
did
get
into
a
solitary
place
to
ease
my
Heart
a
little
,
in
pouring
out
my
Tears
and
Complaints
to
the
Lord
;
for
in
those
daies
many
were
my
Prayers
and
Tears
,
for
great
was
the
burden
and
load
which
I
oftentimes
went
under
day
after
day
,
which
made
me
cry
Night
and
Day
to
the
Lord
for
Peace
and
Rest
;
yet
I
then
,
not
knowing
that
it
was
the
Light
of
Christ
in
my
Conscience
,
that
did
break
my
Rest
and
Peace
in
Sin
,
neither
knew
it
to
be
a
stay
to
the
Mind
,
and
a
bridle
to
my
Tongue
;
I
many
a
time
got
into
a
false
ease
and
liberty
,
in
idleness
and
wildness
of
Youth
,
but
it
was
broke
again
,
and
Sorrow
and
Trouble
would
take
hold
on
my
Mind
,
and
true
Desires
would
again
be
Renewed
in
me
after
the
Lord
,
and
breathing
and
thirsting
after
Righteousness
;
and
oh
,
my
Heart
and
Soul
was
many
a
time
made
tender
and
soft
;
and
oh
,
pity
,
pity
and
tender
bowels
of
compassion
was
in
me
towards
any
that
I
thought
was
in
my
condition
,
and
a
tender
love
was
hid
in
my
Heart
towards
those
that
I
then
thought
were
the
People
of
God
;
and
I
can
truly
say
,
my
Bowels
and
Heart
is
open
still
,
and
oftentimes
Pity
,
Love
,
Compassion
and
Tenderness
issues
forth
in
me
towards
those
that
now
are
in
that
condition
I
then
was
in
;
oh
,
my
Soul
,
my
Soul
cannot
but
in
some
measure
simpathize
with
them
,
and
in
Spirit
bear
a
part
of
their
Burdens
and
Sorrows
in
my
Bosom
,
&
that
not
without
some
secret
cries
in
my
Heart
unto
the
tender
God
of
Bowels
of
Pity
on
their
behalf
;
and
partly
for
their
sakes
is
this
published
,
hoping
(
that
if
the
Lord
will
)
it
may
be
of
service
unto
some
of
them
,
and
if
the
Lord
order
it
so
to
be
to
them
,
or
any
,
then
will
my
end
herein
be
answered
thereby
.
And
in
those
daies
I
frequented
the
Meetings
of
the
People
called
Independants
(
viz.
)
William
Bredges's
Congregation
in
great
Yarmouth
,
whom
I
then
thought
were
the
People
of
God
,
and
yet
I
then
saw
that
many
of
their
Lives
and
Conversations
,
even
some
of
the
chief
of
them
were
not
consistant
with
what
they
professed
in
words
;
and
when
I
have
been
amongst
them
in
the
time
of
their
singing
Psalms
,
the
pure
Witness
of
God
in
my
own
Heart
hath
(
as
it
were
)
stoped
my
Mouth
that
I
could
not
Sing
with
them
;
but
my
Heart
in
the
time
of
their
singing
was
broken
into
tenderness
,
and
many
were
the
tears
of
my
Eyes
;
and
verily
my
outward
●an
,
or
earthen
Vessel
,
hath
quaked
and
trembled
(
this
was
before
I
was
by
Scorners
called
a
Quaker
,
or
had
seen
any
of
those
People
)
and
shaken
like
a
Leaf
that
is
shaken
with
the
Wind
(
which
might
be
a
sign
of
that
shaking
,
which
since
the
Lord
hath
suffered
to
come
upon
unto
him
that
was
dead
,
but
is
alive
,
and
lives
for
evermore
.
And
in
all
the
times
of
my
trouble
of
mind
,
and
travel
of
Spirit
I
never
made
known
how
it
was
with
me
,
nor
declared
my
condition
to
any
Creature
,
though
never
so
intimate
with
them
,
but
kept
it
secret
in
my
Heart
,
pouring
out
my
complaints
to
God
,
but
not
unto
any
man
,
yet
I
could
gladly
have
had
some
to
have
known
how
it
was
with
me
;
but
I
was
straitned
in
my self
,
and
kept
it
in
obscurity
;
and
in
those
dayes
I
knew
not
what
it
was
that
wrought
and
strove
with
me
,
and
did
so
frequently
judge
and
reprove
me
for
Sin
,
and
gave
me
power
over
many
Evils
which
others
were
overcome
withal
,
and
raised
strong
desires
in
me
after
the
Lord
,
and
discovered
unto
me
the
thoughts
of
my
Heart
,
I
say
,
I
knew
not
then
what
it
was
,
I
was
then
not
sencible
that
it
was
the
Light
of
Christ
Jesus
,
or
a
measure
of
the
Spirit
of
Truth
;
neither
did
I
then
know
I
should
have
taken
heed
thereunto
,
as
unto
a
Light
shining
in
a
dark
place
,
untill
the
Day
had
more
and
more
dawned
;
and
until
Christ
the
Day-Star
had
arisen
in
my
Heart
,
over
all
my
Enemies
;
but
my
mind
was
still
gazing
abroad
,
and
imagining
a
God
afar
off
,
and
he
was
very
nigh
me
,
but
I
knew
him
not
,
but
was
hunting
abroad
in
my
Imaginations
for
that
which
was
within
me
,
the
Pearl
of
great
Price
was
hid
in
my
Heart
,
but
I
knew
it
not
,
the
Kingdom
of
God
was
at
hand
,
but
I
was
gazing
for
it
abroad
,
whilst
it
(
in
measure
)
was
working
in
my
Heart
,
like
Leaven
hid
in
three
measures
of
Meal
,
&c.
the
Door
into
the
Fold
,
the
Entrance
into
Rest
was
within
,
but
I
was
seeking
it
abroad
;
my
Saviour
was
nigh
,
but
I
imagined
him
afar
off
,
and
knew
him
not
nigh
;
neither
did
any
man
in
those
dayes
direct
my
mind
unto
the
Light
and
Gift
of
Christ
in
my
own
Heart
:
And
as
for
the
Teachers
of
the
People
,
even
they
in
the
highest
Profession
of
God
in
words
,
were
ready
(
they
being
so
ignorant
and
unsensible
of
the
Gift
of
God
in
themselves
)
to
speak
Blasphemy
of
the
pure
spiritual
Light
of
Christ
within
(
as
many
Professors
do
at
this
day
,
yet
notwithstanding
make
a
large
Profession
and
Confession
of
Christ
in
Words
,
though
in
Works
deny
him
)
and
to
say
,
that
which
troubles
a
man
for
his
sins
is
a
temptation
of
Sathan
,
and
thereby
instead
of
directing
the
mind
to
the
Light
,
draw
away
the
mind
more
from
the
Light
,
and
such
are
blind
,
and
are
under
the
wo
,
that
call
Light
Darkness
,
Good
Evil
,
and
are
in
that
Spirit
they
were
,
who
(
though
great
Professors
)
said
concerning
Christ
,
He
is
Mad
,
and
hath
a
Devil
,
why
hear
ye
him
?
but
as
some
then
replyed
,
and
said
,
Are
these
the
works
of
him
that
hath
a
Devil
?
Can
the
Devil
open
the
Eyes
of
the
Blind
?
so
I
may
say
,
Is
it
the
Devils
work
to
discover
Sin
,
and
judge
,
condemn
and
trouble
a
man
(
in
the
unconverted
state
)
for
Sin
?
or
is
it
not
his
work
to
lull
People
a
sleep
in
Sin
,
and
to
cry
peace
to
them
in
their
Iniquities
,
and
to
keep
them
satisfied
with
a
profession
of
God
without
the
possession
of
a
holy
undefiled
Life
?
Is
it
his
work
to
destroy
his
own
Kingdom
,
which
is
Sin
?
surely
,
no
,
that
is
only
and
alone
the
Work
of
Christ
,
the
Light
of
the
World
,
made
manifest
within
to
destroy
the
Devil
and
his
works
;
he
brings
Trouble
upon
the
Transgressor
and
ministers
Judgement
against
the
Evil
doer
;
he
kindles
a
Fire
in
the
earthly
Heart
,
and
raiseth
Trouble
,
Wars
and
great
Tribulation
within
,
before
he
be
known
to
be
the
Prince
of
Peace
,
the
Sabboth
,
the
everlasting
Rest
for
the
Soul
.
And
now
I
know
infallibly
that
that
which
in
those
dayes
did
bring
trouble
upon
me
for
my
Sins
,
and
checked
and
judged
for
Evil
,
and
begat
good
desires
in
me
after
the
Lord
,
was
the
pure
Witness
of
God
,
the
manifestation
of
his
Spirit
,
the
Light
of
his
Son
Christ
Jesus
,
a
measure
of
his
free
Grace
and
Truth
in
my
own
Heart
;
and
if
ten
Thousand
should
assert
or
affirm
the
contrary
,
I
know
their
Testimony
will
be
a
Lye
.
But
,
oh
,
alas
for
me
!
after
all
this
long
Visitation
of
the
Love
,
Goodness
and
Mercy
of
the
Lord
to
my
Soul
;
and
after
all
this
trouble
of
Mind
,
travel
of
Spirit
,
desiring
and
seeking
after
the
Lord
;
I
got
,
oh
,
I
got
into
a
false
ease
in
the
fleshly
Nature
,
and
in
a
wrong
liberty
and
false
security
,
(
as
it
is
with
many
Professors
at
this
day
,
who
once
were
low
,
broken
and
tender
in
Heart
,
mourning
under
the
load
and
burden
of
of
Sin
,
having
sincere
desires
to
serve
God
in
holiness
of
Life
,
who
are
now
gotten
into
the
form
and
likeness
of
that
they
then
hungred
and
thirsted
after
,
and
are
therewith
satisfied
,
and
feeding
themselves
with
others
Words
,
and
without
Knowledge
,
without
Life
,
and
so
are
gotten
at
ease
in
the
Pride
,
Fashions
and
Vanity
of
the
World
,
and
are
at
liberty
in
the
Flesh
,
counting
it
their
Freedom
to
do
those
things
that
once
was
their
Burden
and
Bondage
)
and
I
became
careless
,
and
by
disobedience
I
quenched
the
strivings
of
the
Light
of
Christ
in
me
,
insomuch
as
the
Burden
,
Trouble
and
Sorrow
which
once
lay
heavy
upon
my
Mind
,
I
felt
little
of
,
although
the
Original
and
real
cause
which
occasioned
the
Burden
,
Sorrow
and
Trouble
(
which
was
my
sins
)
was
not
taken
away
,
but
augmented
,
and
I
through
Rebellion
had
almost
murdered
the
just
and
holy
one
in
me
,
and
had
so
grieved
and
wounded
the
Spirit
of
the
Lord
,
that
it
had
almost
ceased
striving
with
me
,
though
at
sometimes
it
would
bring
former
things
to
my
remembrance
;
and
then
some
trouble
and
sorrow
would
seize
upon
me
for
a
time
;
but
I
soon
got
over
it
again
,
and
turned
from
the
Grace
into
Wantonness
,
and
so
forgot
the
Lord
,
whom
I
had
formerly
desired
and
sought
after
,
and
my
Heart
ran
a
whoreing
after
my
old
Lovers
,
with
my
Face
turned
back
again
to
Egypt
(
the
Land
of
Darkness
,
Wickedness
,
the
Bondage-House
of
Sin
and
Corruption
)
which
before
was
partly
turned
towards
Canaan
,
the
Land
of
Light
,
Life
and
Rest
,
and
so
ran
into
such
Evils
as
I
had
formerly
been
kept
out
of
by
a
secret
Power
,
which
I
then
knew
not
,
and
I
grew
wanton
,
careless
and
wicked
,
and
my
Mind
and
Heart
taken
off
seeking
the
Lord
,
and
run
into
,
and
after
the
Vanity
,
Pleasures
and
Idleness
of
the
World
,
delighting
much
in
Musick
and
Dancing
,
Sporting
and
Gaming
,
and
so
made
merry
over
the
pure
Witness
of
God
,
by
sinning
and
rebelling
against
it
,
and
by
rejecting
its
reproof
and
strivings
;
Oh
,
oh
,
the
patience
and
long-suffering
of
the
Lord
was
large
towards
me
in
that
day
,
who
long
waited
to
be
Gracious
to
my
Soul
Day
after
Day
,
Year
after
Year
,
who
in
his
Justice
might
have
cut
me
off
in
my
Sins
and
Rebellion
,
and
even
have
made
me
an
Example
of
his
Wrath
;
but
oh
,
his
mercy
,
his
mercy
and
long-suffering
was
exceeding
large
to
me
,
which
by
my
Soul
is
not
to
be
forgotten
;
but
in
and
by
the
Spirit
of
Truth
(
which
brings
former
things
to
my
remembrance
,
and
sheweth
things
to
come
)
am
I
to
be
kept
in
a
living
sence
and
remembrance
of
the
great
mercy
,
long-patience
,
long-forbearance
and
long-suffering
of
the
Lord
God
of
Compassion
towards
me
,
and
in
the
sense
thereof
he
is
worthy
to
be
praised
and
honoured
by
my
Soul
,
who
would
not
that
I
should
perish
from
his
presence
forever
:
For
after
all
this
the
Lord
,
the
tender
God
of
tender
bowels
of
compassion
,
was
pleased
to
visit
my
poor
Soul
again
,
even
for
his
pure
Seeds
sake
,
which
he
had
not
forgotten
;
but
he
remembred
the
Poor
and
Needy
,
the
Captive
exile
,
to
deliver
him
out
of
the
hand
of
him
that
was
too
strong
for
him
,
and
to
loose
him
,
that
he
might
not
wholly
die
in
the
Pit
,
and
perish
in
the
miery
Clay
;
and
Gods
precious
Truth
,
&
pure
Way
of
Righteousness
,
and
everlasting
Gospel
of
Light
,
Life
and
Peace
I
heard
preached
and
declared
by
his
precious
Servants
(
who
were
and
are
by
scoffing
Ishmael's
Brood
,
in
scorn
called
Quakers
,
whom
I
now
own
in
the
Lord
)
and
the
pure
Witness
of
God
in
my
own
Heart
bore
Testimony
to
the
Truth
declared
by
them
;
but
long
it
was
after
I
was
in
some
measure
convinced
of
the
Truth
,
before
I
steely
gave
up
my
Heart
to
obey
the
Truth
;
but
the
Lord
in
time
did
overcome
my
Heart
by
the
Power
of
his
Love
,
his
inspeakable
Love
,
and
made
me
willing
to
resign
up
my
Heart
in
obedience
to
him
,
and
this
Truth
,
and
to
bow
down
to
the
Yoak
,
and
to
take
up
the
daily
Cross
,
which
I
learned
by
loving
and
taking
heed
to
the
Light
,
and
to
dispise
the
Shame
,
and
to
follow
the
Lord
in
that
way
(
viz.
the
Light
which
before
had
judged
me
for
Sin
,
begat
desires
in
m●
to
know
the
Way
)
which
I
knew
not
while
my
mind
was
abroad
,
and
knew
not
the
Lord
nigh
,
who
now
teacheth
and
guideth
me
by
his
Light
and
Spirit
in
the
way
of
Truth
and
Righteousness
,
wherein
I
have
found
Peace
,
Rest
and
true
satisfaction
for
my
Soul
,
and
witness
my
Teacher
nigh
,
though
it
hath
been
my
portion
,
with
many
other
Berthren
,
sometimes
to
eat
the
Bread
of
Adversity
,
and
to
drink
the
Water
of
Affliction
,
yet
my
Teacher
and
Comforter
can
none
remove
from
me
;
but
he
is
and
hath
been
with
me
in
the
Prison
house
,
and
in
the
low
Dungeon
;
so
that
which
now
keeps
me
in
Peace
and
Unity
with
the
Lord
,
and
in
Fellowship
with
his
People
,
the
same
thing
(
and
not
another
)
was
it
that
did
formerly
check
,
reprove
and
judge
me
for
Evil
,
and
brought
trouble
upon
me
for
my
Sins
,
and
that
raised
desires
in
me
after
the
Lord
,
as
I
have
explicated
in
the
fore-going
Lines
,
though
I
deny
not
but
that
I
have
now
a
greater
measure
of
Light
and
Grace
then
I
had
then
;
yet
the
Light
(
in
quality
and
nature
)
is
the
same
;
for
although
the
Light
or
Seed
of
the
Kingdom
(
which
consisteth
of
Joy
,
Peace
and
Righteousness
in
the
Holy
Ghost
)
be
in
the
unbeliever
and
unconverted
,
even
as
the
least
of
all
other
Seeds
,
yet
nevertheless
,
where
or
in
whomsoever
it
be
received
in
the
Faith
,
Love
and
Obedience
of
it
,
in
such
it
grows
and
increases
until
it
become
the
greatest
in
them
,
and
under
its
shadow
they
come
to
sit
with
great
delight
,
and
its
Fruit
becomes
sweet
to
their
taste
;
and
as
a
little
Leaven
in
three
measures
of
Meal
,
it
worketh
and
operateth
in
the
Hearts
and
Minds
of
those
that
believe
in
the
Light
,
until
it
hath
wrought
out
the
old
leaven
of
Malice
,
Sin
and
Corruption
,
and
leavened
the
Heart
and
Soul
into
its
own
nature
,
frame
and
quality
;
so
the
same
Light
which
did
condemn
me
for
Sin
when
I
was
in
disobedience
to
it
,
the
sam●
hath
and
doth
save
me
from
Sin
,
and
now
justifies
me
as
I
am
kept
in
the
Faith
and
Obedience
of
it
,
and
now
it
ministers
Peace
and
Rest
unto
me
,
and
before
it
ministred
Trouble
and
Condemnation
:
So
this
I
assert
and
affirm
experimentally
for
an
unerrable
invincible
Truth
,
(
against
all
the
Opposers
,
Gainsayers
,
Fighters
and
Undervaluers
of
the
Light
)
viz.
that
the
Light
of
Christ
(
who
is
the
true
Light
that
lighteth
every
one
that
cometh
into
the
World
)
even
in
the
Conscience
of
that
man
or
woman
that
is
in
Unbelief
,
and
in
the
Unconverted
State
,
is
one
in
nature
and
quality
with
the
Light
in
that
man
or
woman
that
is
in
the
belief
of
it
,
and
converted
by
it
;
and
the
Light
of
Christ
in
the
Conscience
of
the
Drunkard
and
Swearer
,
that
doth
check
,
judg
and
reprove
him
for
his
Sins
,
if
it
be
believed
in
,
loved
and
obeyed
,
is
able
to
save
him
from
his
Sins
;
but
that
man
or
woman
that
loveth
Evil
and
hateth
the
Light
,
and
will
not
come
to
the
Light
,
but
reject
it
,
such
do
not
feel
nor
witness
the
saving
healing
vertue
,
and
restoring
redeeming
power
of
the
Light
,
but
is
only
unto
them
a
Judg
and
Condemner
;
but
they
that
receive
it
in
the
love
and
belief
thereof
,
such
in
,
through
and
by
the
Light
receive
power
to
become
the
Sons
of
God
,
and
joynt
Heirs
with
Christ
of
the
Kingdom
of
God
which
endures
forever
.
So
blessed
,
blessed
be
the
Lord
my
tender
God
,
who
is
worthy
,
worthy
to
be
praised
,
praised
by
my
Soul
in
the
sence
of
his
Love
,
Goodness
and
Grace
,
whose
Mercy
hath
been
,
and
is
wonderful
towards
me
,
unto
whom
be
honour
,
glory
,
praise
,
thanksgiving
and
obedience
for
evermore
.
And
my
Soul
having
obtained
mercy
of
the
Lord
,
and
having
tasted
of
his
Goodness
and
Graciousness
,
and
experienced
his
Tender
Fatherly
Dealings
with
and
towards
my
Soul
,
my
Heatt
is
opened
with
Love
and
Good
will
to
all
People
,
Desiring
their
Good
and
Eternal
Welfare
in
God
.
To
those
that
are
young

ANd
you
who
are
yet
young
and
tender
in
Years
,
mind
the
Light
of
Christ
in
your
Consciences
which
checketh
and
reproveth
for
Evil
,
and
idle
words
and
works
,
and
it
will
learn
you
(
if
you
love
it
)
to
fear
and
mind
the
Creator
in
the
daies
of
your
Youth
,
before
the
Evil
daies
come
,
and
the
Years
when
ye
shall
say
,
We
have
no
pleasure
in
them
:
Oh
say
not
any
of
you
,
We
are
young
,
and
have
many
Years
yet
to
spend
,
wherefore
we
will
take
the
pleas●re
and
delights
of
our
Youth
,
and
seek
the
Lord
afterward
,
and
Repent
when
we
are
old
,
&c.
But
remember
the
Lord
God
your
Maker
giveth
unto
you
Life
,
Breath
and
Being
,
and
how
soon
he
may
cut
the
threed
of
your
lives
,
and
take
you
away
from
all
your
delights
and
vanities
,
you
know
not
;
for
many
he
taketh
away
in
their
Youth
:
Wherefore
trifle
not
away
your
precious
time
in
Sin
and
Vanity
,
in
vain
Sports
and
Gameings
,
or
any
Wickedness
,
lest
your
Hearts
come
to
be
hardened
in
Ungodliness
,
and
you
grow
old
in
Iniquity
,
and
when
it
is
too
late
you
diligently
seek
repentance
,
but
you
find
it
not
;
wherefore
take
warning
,
and
mind
those
things
in
time
,
before
it
be
too
late
,
that
concern
the
eternal
Peace
,
Rest
,
and
Happiness
of
your
immortal
Soul
,
and
first
seek
the
Kingdom
of
God
rather
then
the
Riches
,
Glory
and
Honour
of
this
World
,
which
is
all
passing
away
,
and
will
not
help
in
the
day
of
Calamity
,
and
hour
of
Distress
and
Misery
which
will
overtake
the
Wicked
,
and
all
those
that
forget
God
,
as
a
Thief
in
the
Night
;
therefore
mind
and
fear
the
Lord
your
Maker
,
and
take
heed
unto
the
Light
in
all
your
Consciences
,
which
is
pure
and
holy
,
and
hath
no
unity
with
any
evil
thought
,
word
or
work
,
and
love
and
believe
in
the
Light
,
that
you
may
become
Children
of
the
Light
;
if
you
love
the
Light
it
will
save
you
from
your
Sins
,
and
redeem
you
from
a
vain
Conversation
,
and
learn
you
to
take
up
a
daily
Cross
to
your
own
Wills
,
Desires
,
Lusts
and
Affections
,
and
to
Yoak
down
the
vain
,
wild
,
wanton
corrupt
Nature
,
that
defileth
and
polluteth
your
Hearts
and
Minds
,
Lives
and
Conversations
;
and
so
you
will
come
to
be
changed
and
born
again
of
the
Seed
incorruptible
,
of
the
Word
of
God
which
is
nigh
in
the
Heart
to
be
obeyed
and
done
;
but
if
you
delight
in
evil
doing
,
and
hate
the
Light
of
Christ
in
your
own
Consciences
,
which
judgeth
you
for
Sin
,
and
will
not
come
to
the
Light
,
but
live
and
abide
in
Darkness
,
and
will
not
receive
God's
Counsel
and
Warnings
,
nor
hearken
unto
his
Reproofs
,
nor
have
none
of
his
Ways
,
but
will
follow
your
own
ways
,
wills
and
works
,
and
fulfill
the
lusts
and
desires
of
your
own
Hearts
,
and
vain
devices
and
imaginations
of
your
own
Minds
,
and
will
not
that
the
Light
should
rule
over
you
,
to
govern
you
in
the
pure
fear
of
the
Lord
,
and
to
lead
you
into
holiness
of
Life
,
to
guide
you
into
the
way
of
Truth
and
Righteousness
,
then
will
the
Light
be
your
Condemnation
,
and
leave
you
without
excuse
when
the
Lord
renders
unto
you
according
to
your
Works
,
and
the
wages
of
Sin
is
Death
,
but
the
gift
of
God
is
Eternal
Life
through
Jesus
Christ
:
Therefore
,
dear
People
,
love
it
and
imbrace
it
whilst
it
is
near
you
,
even
knocking
at
the
Door
of
your
Hearts
;
oh
,
hearken
to
it
,
and
let
it
have
place
in
your
Hearts
,
and
refuse
not
the
Love
and
Mercy
of
the
Lord
tendered
to
you
in
the
Light
,
nor
harden
not
your
Hearts
against
the
eternal
good
,
peace
and
happiness
of
your
own
Souls
,
lest
the
Day
of
your
Visitation
pass
over
,
and
the
Night
of
everlasting
Darkness
,
Sorrow
,
Misery
and
Calamity
overtake
you
,
and
shut
you
up
forever
,
To
all
People
that
live
and
delight
in
wickedness
.
The
shew
of
their
Countenance
doth
witness
against
them
,
they
declare
their
Sin
like
Sodom
,
and
hide
it
not
.
Because
I
have
called
,
and
ye
refused
,
&c.
Ye
have
set
at
nought
all
my
Counsel
,
and
would
have
none
of
my
Reproof
,
&c.
I
will
laugh
at
your
Calamity
,
and
mock
when
your
Fear
cometh
,
&c.
Behold
the
day
cometh
that
shall
burn
as
an
Oven
,
and
the
Wicked
,
and
they
that
do
wickedly
shall
be
as
Stubble
,
&c.
Now
consider
this
all
you
that
forget
God
,
lest
I
tear
you
in
Pieces
,
and
there
be
none
to
deliver

AND
you
,
oh
People
,
that
are
void
of
the
pure
fear
of
the
Lord
God
,
and
have
given
up
your
Hearts
to
work
Wickedness
with

,
who
rush
into
Sin

Ungodliness
,
as
the

drinking
up
Iniquity

as

oh
repent

repent

cease
from
the
evil
of
your
doings

leave
off
your
wicked
ways
,
lest
the
Lord

Oh
,
tremble
ye
careless
Ones
before
the
Lord
Almighty
,
who
can
consume
you
in
a
Moment
;
and
cut
you
off

oh

dread
the
Lord
God

fear
his
great
and
dreadful
Name

for
the
hour
of
his
Judgment
is
come

stand
in
awe
of
him
who
made
the
Heaven

the
Earth
,
the
Sea
and
Fountains
of
Waters
;
who
giveth
the
Sun
for
a
Light
by
Day
,
and
the
Ordinances
of
the
Stars
and
Moon
for
a
Light
by

,
who
divided
the
Sea
when
the
Waves

roar

who
hath
his
way
in
the
Whirlwind
and
in
the
Storm
,
and
the
Clouds
are
as
the
dust
of
his
Feet

who
meeteth
out
the
Heavens
with
a
span
,
and
measureth
the
Waters
of
the
Sea
in
the
hollow
of
his
Hand

he
comprehendeth
the
Dust
of
the
Earth
▪
as
in
a
Measure

and
weigheth
the
Mountains
as

Seales

in

whom
all
Nations

but
as

Oh
,
will
you
not
fear
the
Lord
,
and
dread
his
Majesty
,
and
tremble
before
his
Presence
,
who
is
a
terrible
one
to
the
Workers
of
Iniquity
that
will
not
Repent
;
who
cometh
with
Fire
,
and
his
Chariot
,
like
a
Whirlwind
,
to
render
his
Anger
(
against
the
Wicked

Ungodly
)
in
Fury

his
Rebukes

Fire

for
by

Fire

he
cut
down
the
strongest
Oakes

Ceders

will
plead
with
all
Flesh

the
slain
of

wherefore
repent

repent

tremble
before
the
Lord
God

ye
Workers
of
Iniquity
,
for
the
day
,
the
mighty
,
terrible
,
dreadful
day
of
the
Lord
God
Almighty
is
come

a
coming
,
and
wo

wo
to
the
Bryars

Thorns
that
cumber
the
Earth

for
the
day
shall
burn

the
Wicked

wickedly

not
take
warning

Wretchedness

Miserableness

Deplorableness
of
your
Conditions

shall
be
as
Stubble

and
the
Day
will
burn
them
up
both
Root
and
Branch
,
and
the
Fire
will
burn
up
the
Bryars

Thorns
,
and
clense
the
Earth
,
that
Truth
,
Righteousness
,
Justice
and
Mercy
may
spring
and
flourish
therein
,
and
the
Mouth
of
Iniquity
be
stopt
forever
:
And
the
day
of
the
Lord
God
will
be
upon
every
one
that
is
proud
,
and
lifted
up
against
the
Lord
and
his
anointed
;
and
the
loftiness
of
the
stoutest
in
Heart
against
the
Lord
shall
be
laid
low
,
and
the
haughtiness
of
Men
shall
be
humbled
,
and
the
Lord
God
(
holy
,
just
and
true
)
shall
be
exalted
in
that
day
,
when
the
Wicked
shall
flee
to
the
Rocks
,
and
hide
themselves
as
in
the
Caves
of
the
Earth
,
for
the
fear
of
the
Lord
,
and
the
Glory
of
his
Majesty
,
when
he
cometh
to
shake
terribly
the
Earth
,
and
to
overthrow
the
Seat
of
Wickedness
forever
,
and
to
punish
the
World
for
their
Sins
,
and
the
Wicked
for
their
Iniquity
,
and
cause
the
Arrogancy
of
the
Proud
to
cease
,
and
to
lay
low
the
Haughtiness
of
the
Terrible
:
Wherefore
,
oh
People
,
prepare
,
prepare
by
true
Repentance
,
with
speed
,
to
meet
the
Lord
in
the
way
of
his
Judgments
,
before
his
dreadful
Fury
break
forth
against
you
,
as
devouring
Fire
:
Oh
,
bring
forth
Fruits
worthy
of
Repentance
and
amendment
of
Life
;
oh
,
why
will
you
die
and
perish
in
your
Iniquities
forever
?
the
Lord
desireth
not
the
destruction
of
a
Sinner
,
but
rather
he
should
return
in
time
,
from
his
Wickedness
,
and
learn
Righteousness
and
Live
;
yea
,
Let
the
Wicked
forsake
his
Wickedness
,
and
the
Vngodly
man
his
Thoughts
,
and
turn
unto
the
Lord
with
his
whole
Heart
,
and
he
will
have
mercy
upon
him
;
for
with
the
Lord
there
is
great
Mercy
,
and
plentious
Redemption
;
who
also
is
just
in
all
his
Ways
,
and
equal
in
all
his
Doings
,
and
righteous
in
all
his
Judgments
,
and
he
will
not
be
mocked
by
any
,
such
as
People
sow
such
must
they
●●ap
,
and
the
wages
of
Sin
is
Death
.
Oh
,
how
many
have
been
the
War●ings
of
the
Lord
to
the
People
of
this
Nation
Time
after
Time
,
Year
after
Year
,
Line
upon
Line
,
Precept
upon
Precept
?
but
how
few
have
ponderously
weighed
them
,
received
them
,
and
laid
them
to
Heart
?
And
how
hath
the
Lord
in
part
executed
his
righteous
Judgments
in
and
upon
this
poor
Nation
?
and
how
few
have
learned
Righteousness
thereby
?
but
the
greatest
part
of
thy
Inhabitants
,
oh
England
,
are
still
daily
adding
Sin
unto
Sin
,
and
heaping
of
Iniquity
upon
Iniquity
,
and
so
fitting
themselves
for
a
day
of
Slaughter
:
And
instead
of
being
truly
humbled
under
the
hand
of
God
,
and
to
mourn
in
Sack-cloath
and
Ash●s
,
many
are
sporting
themselves
in
Musick
and
Dancing
,
in
ringing
of
Bells
,
Camping
and
Wrestling
,
and
many
other
Games
and
Vanities
,
as
Bull-baiting
and
Bare-baiting
,
by
which
the
Creatures
are
oppressed
to
make
them
Sport
;
also
their
wi●ked
Stage-playes
and
Games
,
which
are
abomination
to
the
Lord
,
and
ashame
to
a
Nation-professing
Christianity
.
O!
how
doth
Swearing
and
Drunkenness
abound
,
and
many
take
pleasure
to
overcome
one
another
in
the
Sin
of
Drunkenness
,
which
is
abomination
to
the
Lord
.
And
you
that
are
Tavern
and
Ale-House-keepers
,
put
not
your
Guests
upon
spending
the
good
Creatures
of
God
upon
their
Lust
,
for
your
own
Gain
and
Interest
sake
;
but
rather
restrain
them
,
lest
you
become
guilty
with
them
of
their
Sins
,
and
so
partake
with
them
of
their
Plagues
.
And
all
your
observable
Days
and
Times
,
in
which
you
take
liberty
to
sport
your selves
in
Games
and
Vanity
,
ought
to
be
left
off
,
for
your
Customs
are
vain
;
you
that
observe
a
Time
(
as
you
pretend
)
in
honour
of
Christ
,
which
you
spend
in
excess
of
Eating
and
Drinking
,
Musick
and
Dancing
,
Gaming
and
Revelling
;
in
these
things
you
dishonour
Christ
,
and
not
honour
him
,
but
grieve
his
holy
Spirit
,
and
add
Sin
unto
Sin
;
and
the
greater
will
be
the
condemnation
of
such
,
except
they
Repent
;
and
truly
,
a
great
and
sore
Plague
is
come
upon
many
People
,
ev●n
hardness
,
hardness
of
Heart
:
So
that
indeed
;
neither
the
Warnings
nor
W●ings
,
Mercies
nor
Judgments
of
the
Lord
will
take
impression
on
them
,
to
move
them
to
Repentance
;
and
in
the
sence
of
this
my
Heart
is
grieved
,
and
my
Soul
mourneth
in
secret
because
of
the
hardness
of
their
Hearts
,
which
doth
signifie
the●
to
be
as
Vessels
of
wrath
fitted
for
Destruction
.
Oh
,
how
doth
all
manner
of
Wickedness
abound
,
and
Ungodliness
appear
with
open
Face
,
and
blush
not
at
rebuke
?
oh
,
how
doth
Pride
super-abound
,
and
Peoples
Hearts
so
puffed
up
therewith
,
that
many
scarc●
know
what
to
eat
,
drink
or
put
on
?
oh
,
the
●ields
are
even
white
for
the
Harvest
,
Sinners
grown
ripe
for
Vengance
,
Iniquity
is
coming
to
its-full
height
,
the
Fats
overflow
with
Wickedness
;
oh
,
how
are
the
Proud
counted
happy
,
and
the
Workers
of
Iniquity
set
up
?
but
the
Meek
of
the
Earth
are
despised
,
and
the
humble
and
contrite
Ones
are
killed
all
the
day
long
,
and
counted
as
Sheep
for
the
Slaughter
,
and
they
that
reprove
Sin
in
the
Gate
are
Hated
and
Persecuted
,
and
he
that
departeth
from
Iniquity
,
and
learns
Righteousness
,
maketh
himself
a
Prey
:
Oh
,
the
Lord
hath
seen
it
,
and
it
displeaseth
and
grieveth
him
,
because
of
the
multitudes
of
the
Transgressions
and
Abominations
of
the
Sons
of
men
,
and
Viole●ce
and
Cruelty
that
filleth
the
Earth
;
but
the
Lord
will
arise
as
a
man
of
War
,
and
ease
himself
of
his
Enemies
,
and
aveng●
himself
of
his
Adversaries
;
for
because
Judgment
is
not
speedily
executed
against
an
Evil
work
,
therefore
the
Heart●
of
the
Sons
and
Daughters
of
men
are
set
in
them
to
do
wickedly
;
but
what
will
be
the
end
thereof
?
Oh
England
,
oh
England
,
how
of●●n
would
the
Lord
in
mercy
have
gathered
thy
Inhabitants
unto
himself
,
as
a
Hen
gathereth
her
Chickens
under
●e●
Wings
,
but
thou
wouldest
not
?
therefore
hath
the
Lord
in
Judgment
partly
made
thee
desolate
:
Oh
,
thy
great
City
,
thy
great
City
,
whose
Abominations
reached
Heaven
,
and
her
Sins
came
up
before
the
Most
High
;
how
hath
the
Lord
God
(
mighty
in
Power
,
and
righteous
in
Judgment
)
layed
her
Glory
in
the
Dust
,
covered
her
Dignity
with
Ashes
,
and
marr'd
her
Beauty
with
Burning
!
Oh
,
how
hath
he
made
of
a
City
an
Heap
;
of
a
defenced
City
,
a
Ruin
;
of
a
Palace
of
Strangers
,
to
become
a
ruinous
Heap
!
And
oh
,
how
few
of
thy
Inhabitants
,
oh
England
,
have
weightily
laid
it
to
Heart
,
or
have
seriously
,
and
diligently
taken
notice
of
the
cause
of
the
Destruction
thereof
!
the
Lord
Could
have
destroyed
the
People
with
their
Habitations
;
but
the
Lord
in
Mercy
spared
them
,
that
his
Mercy
might
move
them
to
Repentance
!
Oh
,
England
,
how
hath
Judgment
after
Judgment
been
executed
upon
thine
Inhabitants
?
how
hath
the
Lord
visited
thee
with
Plague
,
Fire
and
Sword
,
yet
their
Hearts
are
still
stout
against
the
Lord
and
his
People
;
their
minds
haughty
,
and
they
will
not
bow
their
Hearts
to
the
Lord
,
nor
break
off
from
their
evil
doings
,
and
wicked
wayes
;
therefore
is
his
Hand
stretched
forth
still
,
and
they
that
will
not
take
Warning
and
Repent
,
must
feel
his
heavy
stroke
.
Oh
,
say
not
any
of
you
in
your
Hearts
,
Tush
,
the
Lord
hath
done
his
worst
?
oh
,
the
Lord
he
hath
begun
,
and
he
can
make
a
full
end
,
and
who
amongst
you
can
stay
his
Hand
,
or
escape
his
stroke
when
he
smites
?
or
where
can
you
hide
your selves
from
the
Lord
?
therefore
bow
,
fear
and
tremble
before
him
,
and
submit
your selves
,
and
meet
him
by
True
and
Unfeigned
Repentance
,
and
that
is
the
way
for
you
to
escape
the
Stroke
of
his
Fury
.
The
Lord
is
a
God
full
of
long-suffering
,
and
full
of
patience
and
forbearance
;
and
long
woeth
Sinners
,
and
waiteth
day
after
day
to
be
Gracious
,
even
to
the
Rebellious
;
but
his
patient
forbearing
will
come
to
an
end
,
towards
those
that
will
by
no
means
repent
and
be
reclaimed
from
the
evil
of
their
wayes
,
and
against
such
his
Anger
and
Wrath
will
break
forth
as
Fire
,
and
they
like
Stubble
,
ready
dry
,
will
be
consumed
therein
:
Therefore
you
that
have
not
yet
wholy
sinned
out
the
day
of
your
Visitation
,
prize
,
prize
that
littletime
you
have
,
and
make
good
use
thereof
,
in
diligently
minding
and
seeking
,
after
those
things
that
concern
your
eternal
Peace
,
before
you
go
hence
and
be
no
more
.
Oh
,
dear
People
,
every
where
,
my
love
is
to
you
,
and
pity
and
tender
compassion
is
in
my
Heart
for
you
,
and
your
good
and
welfare
eternally
I
desire
,
especially
you
,
unto
whom
I
am
known
in
the
Fe●●
even
you
my
Neighbours
and
Countrymen
,
whose
resident
is
in
Kirtly
,
Peakfield
,
Layestouff
,
and
those
parts
:
Oh
,
my
Soul
tenders
your
eternal
happiness
,
and
desires
the
Salvation
of
your
Souls
,
yea
,
love
and
good
will
is
in
my
Heart
towards
you
,
and
to
all
People
;
oh
,
that
you
your selves
did
tender
,
and
seek
after
the
Salvation
of
your
Souls
more
then
you
do
:
Remember
when
sometimes
you
have
been
in
great
jepardy
of
your
Lives
at
Sea
,
and
the
Lord
hath
in
Mercy
delivered
you
,
how
little
have
some
of
you
Eyed
the
Mercy
and
delivering
Hand
of
the
Lord
therein
?
but
have
been
ready
to
ascribe
the
honour
of
your
deliverance
to
the
Anchor
,
Cable
and
Man-hood
,
&c.
More
then
to
the
Lord
;
and
when
you
have
been
in
great
danger
of
your
Lives
;
and
saw
no
way
but
you
must
perish
;
have
you
not
then
cryed
to
the
Lord
to
deliver
you
(
and
the
Guilt
of
your
Iniquities
being
hung
upon
your
Consciences
)
have
you
not
been
ready
to
make
Promises
,
in
your
distress
,
to
the
Lord
,
that
if
he
spared
your
Lives
you
would
repent
;
and
return
unto
him
,
and
fear
and
serve
him
,
and
forsake
the
Evil
wayes
;
and
when
the
Lord
hath
answered
your
desires
,
and
in
mercy
hath
given
you
your
Lives
for
a
Prey
,
when
you
came
to
Land
,
have
you
then
performed
your
Vows
and
Promises
to
the
Lord
,
or
have
you
not
gone
on
in
Sin
and
Evil
still
?
let
Gods
witness
in
every
Conscience
speak
;
for
unto
that
I
make
my
appeal
:
Consider
seriously
how
it
stands
between
God
and
your
own
Souls
,
and
how
greatly
it
concerneth
you
Sea-men
(
and
so
it
doth
all
other
People
)
to
mind
their
latter
●nd
,
and
to
be
ready
for
sudden
death
;
it
is
a
blessed
thing
to
be
fit
to
dye
,
and
to
feel
peace
with
God
.
Dear
People
,
your
Souls
are
immortal
,
and
must
hereafter
be
in
a
sence
and
feeling
of
Joy
,
Peace
and
Rest
;
or
else
of
Sorrow
,
Misery
and
Torment
,
even
to
all
Eternity
;
wherefore
it
concerns
every
particular
one
,
to
mind
above
all
other
things
,
and
seek-after
the
eternal
peace
and
happiness
of
your
Souls
in
time
,
before
it
be
too
late
;
it
is
Sin
,
Wickedness
,
Unbelief
,
and
Hardness
of
Heart
,
that
doth
separate
People
from
the
Lord
,
and
that
draws
down
the
wrath
and
curse
of
God
upon
them
;
wherefore
people
must
first
be
separated
and
clensed
from
that
to
wit
,
Sin
)
which
separates
them
from
the
Lord
,
and
from
his
Love
,
Peace
and
Blessing
,
before
they
can
witness
their
Reconciliation
unto
God
in
his
Son
,
and
enjoy
his
Love
,
Peace
and
Blessings
.
Oh
,
dear
People
,
I
beseech
you
,
do
not
deceive
your
own
Souls
,
by
being
satisfied
with
a
talk
of
being
saved
and
redeemed
by
Christ
,
&c
,
whilst
you
remain
in
your
Sins
,
for
whom
Christ
saves
he
saveth
from
their
Sins
,
not
in
their
Sins
;
and
they
that
witness
Christ
to
be
their
Redeemer
,
are
redeemed
from
a
vain
Conversation
,
and
have
their
Consciences
purged
from
dead
works
,
and
their
Hearts
clensed
and
washed
in
his
Blood
(
which
is
his
Life
and
Light
)
from
Sin
and
Corruption
,
that
so
they
might
serve
him
in
newness
and
holiness
of
Life
:
Therefore
consider
,
be
still
,
serious
and
ponderous
in
Heart
,
and
retire
your
minds
inward
to
the
pure
Light
of
Christ
in
your
own
Consciences
,
that
true
and
faithful
Witness
of
God
,
which
keeps
a
Record
of
the
deeds
done
in
the
Body
,
and
according
to
his
Record
must
every
man
be
judged
according
to
his
works
,
so
take
heed
unto
the
Light
,
&
it
will
shew
you
your
conditions
,
and
how
it
stands
with
your
poor
Souls
to
Godward
;
that
will
deal
plainly
with
you
,
&
will
not
deceive
you
;
though
indeed
,
your
Teachers
(
who
preach
for
Hire
,
&
divine
for
Money
)
have
,
&
do
deceive
you
,
by
crying
Peace
to
you
,
&
lulled
you
asleep
in
your
Sins
,
&
have
(
as
it
were
)
daubed
you
up
with
untempred
Morter
,
and
(
as
it
were
)
sewing
Pillows
under
your
Arm-holes
,
so
long
as
you
put
into
their
Mouthes
,
&
give
them
hire
,
&
help
to
maintain
their
God
,
which
is
their
Belly
:
But
wo
to
such
Teachers
that
feed
with
the
Fat
,
and
clothe
with
the
Wool
;
and
for
filthy
Lucre
and
Gain
from
their
Quarters
will
cry
peace
unto
the
Wicked
,
unto
whom
(
while
they
remain
in
their
wicked
state
)
there
is
no
true
peace
,
saith
the
Living
God
;
oh
,
they
are
Blind
Leaders
of
the
Blind
,
and
how
many
are
faln
into
the
Pit
of
Perdition
,
that
have
been
led
by
them
?
Therefore
,
dear
People
,
cease
from
your
Teachers
,
who
have
not
profitted
you
at
all
,
but
keep
you
ever
learning
,
but
never
able
to
bring
you
to
the
knowledg
of
the
Truth
,
which
until
you
do
come
to
know
freedom
from
the
bondage
of
Sin
and
Corruption
,
you
cannot
witness
;
therefore
to
the
Light
in
all
your
Consciences
come
,
for
that
is
Truth
,
and
love
it
,
and
obey
it
,
and
you
will
by
it
receive
power
over
Sin
,
and
be
enabled
to
cast
off
the
Yoak
of
Iniquity
,
and
to
take
up
the
Yoak
of
Christ
,
and
embrace
that
Cross
which
crucifies
to
the
World
,
and
worldly
things
unto
the
Lust
and
Wickedness
thereof
,
and
such
are
true
Disciples
of
Jesus
that
learn
of
him
who
is
meek
and
low
in
their
Hearts
,
and
that
do
deny
themselves
,
and
take
up
the
daily
Cross
to
their
own
Wills
,
Thoughts
,
Words
,
Works
,
Desires
and
Affections
,
and
follow
him
through
many
Tribulations
,
in
the
narrow
way
of
Holiness
;
for
it
is
not
he
that
calls
Lord
,
Lord
,
but
he
that
doth
the
Will
of
God
that
inheriteth
the
Kingdom
of
God
;
not
the
Sayers
,
or
Knowers
of
the
Will
of
God
are
justified
but
the
Doers
of
the
Will
are
justified
;
not
they
that
only
confess
(
with
the
Mouth
,
day
after
day
,
that
they
are
miserable
Sinners
,
&c.
(
as
both
Priest
and
People
do
)
and
yet
still
Year
after
Year
remain
the
same
,
if
not
grow
worse
)
shall
find
mercy
;
but
they
that
(
not
only
confess
)
but
forsake
,
and
turn
from
the
evil
(
in
Heart
Life
and
Conversation
)
unto
that
which
is
good
,
shall
find
mercy
and
forgiveness
,
and
remission
of
Sins
.
Oh
,
mind
the
good
thing
in
you
which
is
grieved
and
burdened
with
the
evil
,
and
turn
in
your
minds
to
it
,
and
it
will
let
you
see
those
things
that
are
reproveable
:
Drunkard
turn
in
thy
mind
to
the
Light
in
thy
own
Conscience
,
and
it
will
shew
thee
,
judge
and
reprove
thee
for
thy
Drunkenness
;
Swearer
turn
into
the
Light
,
and
it
will
judge
thee
for
Swearing
,
for
Lying
,
Pride
,
Envy
,
Malice
,
Reviling
,
Cheating
,
Defrauding
,
Covetousness
,
Fornication
;
yea
,
All
things
that
are
reprovable
are
made
manifest
by
the
Light
,
and
that
which
maketh
manifest
is
Light
;
thou
that
hatest
the
Light
,
and
lovest
thy
Evil
deeds
,
and
wilt
not
come
to
the
Light
,
because
it
will
reprove
thee
,
there
thou
hast
learned
thy
condemnation
;
For
this
is
the
condemnation
of
the
World
,
that
Light
is
come
into
the
World
,
and
men
love
Darkness
rather
then
the
Light
,
because
their
deeds
are
evil
;
but
they
that
do
good
love
the
Light
,
and
bring
their
deeds
to
the
Light
,
to
try
them
whether
they
be
wrought
in
God
;
and
such
are
justified
by
the
Light
:
So
while
you
have
the
Light
,
believe
in
the
Light
,
that
you
may
become
Children
of
the
Light
;
so
unto
the
Light
(
in
all
your
Consciences
)
I
am
made
manifest
,
and
in
true
unfained
love
,
and
bowels
of
pity
,
tenderness
and
compassion
to
your
immortal
Souls
have
I
cleared
my
Conscience
,
in
giving
you
warning
to
Repent
and
turn
from
the
evil
of
your
own
ways
unto
the
Lord
,
while
you
have
a
time
,
before
the
door
of
Mercy
be
shut
against
you
forever
,
and
time
unto
you
be
no
more
.
From
one
that
tenders
the
Eternal
happiness
and
good
of
your
Immortal
Souls

AND
all
dear
People
that
are
scatered
among
the
many
Sects

,
who
have
honest
sincere
desires
and
thirstings
after
the

;
oh
,
love

compassion
is
in
my
Heart
towards
you

and

pities
you

cannot

Oh
,
Christ
is
risen
he
is
not

his
Appearance
is
now
more
hidden
,
more
invisible
,
more

therefore
stay
not

Shadows
,
rest
not
in
the
Likeness
without
Life
;
pitch
not
your
Tent
in
the
Form
,
without
the
Power
;
Come
,
come
away
,
you
thirsty
Ones
,
from
the
Wells
of
man's
digging
,
which
can
hold
no
Water
,
that
will
rightly
and
kindly
satisfie
your
thirsty
Souls
,
and
wait
to
know
the
Spring
opened
in
your
own
Hearts
,
which
cometh
from
Christ
,
the
Fountain
of
living
Water
,
and
drink
thereof
,
and
be
satisfied

go
no

forth

Cisterns

but
wait
within
,
in
the
Light
,
for
the
Springs
of
Life
to
refresh
your
thirsty
Souls
.
Oh!
come
out
of
the
Shadows
to
the
Substance
,
Christ
(
the
Light
)
in
you
,
except
you
be
Reprobates

Oh!
the
Spirit
and
the
Bride
says
,
Come
;
and
he
that
drinketh
says
,
Come
;
and
let
him
that
is
athirst
come
,
and
drink
of
the
Water
of
Life
freely
;
why
do
you
spend
your
Time
for
that
which
is
not
Bread
,
and
your
●abour
for
that
which
doth
not
truly
satisfie
your
Souls
?
Oh!
feed
no
longer
upon
the
Husk
,
upon
Words
without
Life
,
upon
Knowledge
without
Power
;
for
that
will
puff
you
up
in
your
own
Eyes
,
and
elevate
you
in
your
own
Conceits
,
and
shut
you
out
from
the
Tree
of
Life
;
and
though
you
may
seem
to
grow
Rich
and
increase
with
Goods
,
and
want
nothing
;
yet
when
your
Eyes
come
to
be
opened
,
you
will
see
your selves
Poor
,
Blind
and
Naked
;
for
he
that
covereth
himself
with
a
Covering
of
Words
and
Knowledg
,
and
a
Profession
without
Life
,
his
Covering
is
not
the
Fine
Linnen
,
whit●
and
clean
,
which
the
Wife
Virgins
that
follow
the
Lamb
are
cloathed
with
,
who
have
Oyl
in
their
Vessels
,
the
Light
,
Life
and
Substance
in
themselves
;
but
they
that
only
get
Words
and
Knowledge
into
the
Comprehension
,
and
grow
rich
in
the
Brain
,
and
have
their
Religion
in
their
Head
,
and
know
not
the
pure
undefiled
Religion
in
the
Heart
,
such
are
Foolish
Virgins
,
that
have
Oyl
only
in
their
Lamps
;
and
though
such
may
blaze
,
and
give
a
seeming
great
Light
in
Words
,
yet
such
one
day
will
want
Oyl
,
and
their
Lights
will
go
out
;
the
Lord
will
dry
up
all
standing
Waters
that
have
no
Spring
;
he
will
blast
all
Professions
out
of
the
Light
,
all
Gatherings
out
of
the
Name
and
Power
of
God
,
the
Lord
will
scatter
;
therefore
come
away
(
from
among
them
)
you
Unsatisfied
and
Thirsty
Ones
,
whose
Souls
pant
after
the
Lord
,
and
are
weary
of
the
Husks
,
and
hunger
after
the
Substance
:
And
deceive
not
your
own
Souls
by
creating
to
your selves
a
false
Peace
,
by
applying
the
Promises
to
your selves
,
and
acting
Faith
(
as
you
say
)
upon
a
Promise
;
but
seriously
consider
in
the
Fear
of
the
Lord
,
and
examine
your
own
Hearts
,
with
the
Light
of
Christ
in
your
own
Consciences
,
whether
you
be
in
that
State
and
Condition
that
the
Promises
of
Life
Eternal
are
unto
,
yea
or
nay
:
There
is
great
Difference
between
man's
applying
the
Promises
,
forcing
him
to
believe
they
belong
to
him
;
and
God's
applying
them
,
and
sealing
them
to
the
Soul
by
his
own
Spirit
:
The
Promises
of
God
are
Yea
and
Amen
in
Christ
Jesus
,
the
Covenant
of
Light
and
Life
;
and
those
that
are
converted
into
him
,
pertake
with
him
of
the
Promises
of
Life
eternal
;
but
he
that
is
in
Christ
,
is
a
New
Creature
,
the
old
things
are
passed
away
,
and
all
things
become
new
;
and
such
walk
not
after
the
Flesh
,
but
after
the
Spirit
,
and
so
come
to
be
Heirs
with
Christ
of
that
Kingdom
that
is
without
End
.
But
for
any
to
set
themselves
to
believe
,
that
they
are
elected
in
Christ
Jesus
unto
Life
eternal
,
and
so
count
the
Promises
of
God
are
theirs
,
when
they
are
not
become
New
Creatures
in
Christ
,
but
are
in
their
Sin
,
such
deceive
their
own
Souls
;
for
Vnless
a
man
(
said
Christ
)
be
born
again
,
he
cannot
enter
into
God's
Kingdom
.
So
all
you
hungry
Souls
,
turn
in
your
Minds
to
the
Light
of
Christ
Jesus
in
your
Consciences
,
and
wait
in
it
,
to
know
Bread
in
your
own
Houses
,
Christ
in
you
,
the
Bread
of
Life
,
which
the
living
Soul
feeds
on
,
and
lives
by
,
that
you
may
know
the
fresh
and
green
Pasture
,
and
with
us
feed
therein
,
and
drink
of
the
still
Waters
,
and
rest
with
us
(
in
the
Light
)
in
the
Fold
;
that
so
we
may
all
know
and
have
one
Shepherd
,
and
be
all
of
one
Sheepfold
.
To
those
that
are
backslided
from
the
Truth
.
Remember
therefore
from
whence
thou
art
faln
,
and
Repent
,
and
do
thy
first
works
,
&c.
Return
,
oh
,
backsliding
Israel
,
&c.
I
will
heal
thy
backsliding
,
&c.
But
if
you
will
not
hear
,
my
Soul
shall
weep
in
secret
,
&c.
Because
the
Lord's
Flock
is
gone
into
Captivity

AND
you
who
have
tasted
of
the
Power
of
an
Endless
Life
,
and
were
convinced
of
the
precious
immutable
Truth
of
God
,
and
had
in
measure
received
it
in
the
love
and
obedience
of
it
,
and
by
it
were
in
part
set
free
from
the
bondage
of
Sin
and
Corruption
,
and
redeemed
out
of
the
pollutions
of
the
World
,
but
now
are
Apostatized
from
the
Lord
,
and
have
forsaken
his
precious
Truth
and
People
,
and
like
Demas
embraced
this
present
World
again
,
and
are
turned
like
the
Dog
to
his
Vomit
,
and
like
the
Swine
that
were
washed
,
to
wallow
in
the
Mire
again
,
and
have
made
ship-wrack
of
Faith
and
a
good
Conscience
,
and
have
proved
treacherous
both
to
God
and
his
People
,
and
have
denyed
the
Womb
that
bore
you
,
and
the
Brest
that
gave
you
suck
,
and
have
turned
from
the
Grace
of
God
into
wantonness
,
and
done
dispite
to
the
Spirit
of
Truth
,
and
hath
trampled
the
Blood
of
the
Covenant
(
wherewith
you
were
in
measure
sanctified
)
under
your
Feet
as
an
unholy
thing
,
and
have
slain
the
Just
,
and
crucified
the
Righteous
in
your selves
.
Oh
,
poor
,
poor
Hearts
!
my
Soul
pities
you
,
and
mourns
in
secret
over
you
,
and
cannot
but
lament
the
sadness
and
deplorableness
of
your
Conditions
;
oh
,
better
you
had
never
known
the
Truth
,
then
after
you
have
known
it
to
turn
from
it
to
your
old
Lovers
again
:
Oh
,
whither
will
you
go
you
Backsliding
ones
?
where
,
and
in
what
will
you
hide
your selves
from
the
Lord
,
now
you
are
departed
from
him
?
if
you
go
from
Sea
to
Sea
,
he
will
find
you
out
;
and
what
can
defend
you
from
his
wrath
?
oh
,
where
and
in
what
can
you
find
true
Peace
,
Rest
and
happiness
for
your
Souls
,
seeing
you
have
forsaken
him
in
whom
alone
it
is
to
be
enjoyed
?
Oh
,
are
you
not
sensible
that
you
want
true
Peace
?
Oh
,
you
that
have
forsaken
the
Father's
House
of
plenty
,
and
are
gone
out
among
the
Swine
who
feed
upon
the
Husks
;
oh
,
poor
Hearts
!
do
you
not
sometimes
a
little
come
to
your selves
,
and
then
remember
the
Father's
House
?
and
do
you
not
then
find
some
inclination
and
desire
to
return
again
?
if
you
do
return
,
how
know
you
but
that
he
will
have
compassion
on
you
,
and
receive
you
into
his
House
again
?
though
you
have
been
spending
your
Portion
among
Harlots
,
and
have
deal
so
treacherously
by
him
,
and
so
much
wounded
and
grieved
him
,
and
his
Children
;
yet
notwithstanding
if
you
can
throughly
return
unto
him
with
your
whole
Hearts
,
he
can
and
will
receive
you
,
and
heal
your
Backslidings
,
&
blot
out
your
Sins
,
&
forgive
you
your
Transgressions
against
him
,
and
love
you
freely
.
Therefore
return
,
return
you
backsliding
Ones
,
why
,
why
will
you
die
and
perish
forever
;
oh
,
repent
and
do
the
first
Works
,
turn
your
minds
inward
to
the
pure
and
just
One
in
your selves
,
which
you
have
grieved
,
wounded
and
oppressed
,
as
a
Cart
is
oppressed
with
Sheaves
:
Oh
that
you
might
look
upon
him
whom
you
have
pierced
,
and
behold
him
whom
you
have
wounded
,
and
even
mourn
and
lament
over
him
:
Oh
,
to
the
pure
,
holy
,
faithful
Witness
of
God
in
your
own
Consciences
,
which
you
were
at
first
turned
unto
you
must
come
,
and
the
righteous
Judgment
of
the
Lord
you
must
own
,
and
wait
in
;
yea
,
a
dreadful
Cup
you
must
drink
before
you
can
enjoy
true
lasting
peace
in
God
:
Oh
that
you
could
be
willing
to
drink
it
,
and
to
pass
again
through
the
Fire
and
Sword
,
yea
,
through
Death
,
to
come
to
eat
again
of
the
Tree
of
Life
,
and
live
forever
:
Oh
,
that
all
you
that
are
betrayed
(
like
Sampson
)
of
their
strength
by
the
Adulterous
mind
,
so
as
that
the
Philistine
,
the
uncircumcised
Nature
hath
prevailed
over
you
,
and
put
out
your
Eyes
,
that
you
are
become
Blind
,
and
cannot
see
that
beauty
and
comeliness
in
the
Lord
and
his
Truth
which
you
once
saw
;
oh
that
the
Lord
would
be
pleased
to
visit
you
again
,
that
(
like
as
the
Hair
of
Sampson
grew
again
,
his
strength
increased
;
so
that
he
slew
more
of
his
Enemies
at
his
Death
,
then
he
did
in
all
his
Life
)
so
the
Seed
of
God
may
be
raised
again
in
your
Hearts
,
and
the
strength
therein
and
thereby
may
be
renewed
and
grow
,
that
by
your
dying
again
unto
that
which
is
contrary
to
the
Will
of
God
,
you
may
witness
greater
Victory
in
the
Lord
over
your
Enemies
,
and
know
more
of
them
slain
then
ever
you
did
.
Oh!
you
that
find
and
are
sensible
that
the
Lord
hath
not
wholly
given
you
over
,
but
is
yet
striving
with
you
by
his
pure
Witness
in
you
to
return
unto
him
,
his
Truth
and
People
again
;
Oh!
return
before
it
be
too
late
,
and
before
the
Door
of
Mercy
be
forever
shut
against
you
;
for
then
,
if
you
seek
the
Blessing
with
Tears
,
as
Esau
did
,
you
will
not
obtain
it
;
and
though
you
call
,
Lord
,
Lord
open
unto
us
,
we
have
Eaten
and
D●unk
in
thy
Presence
,
and
in
thy
Name
we
have
cast
out
Devils
,
and
have
had
power
over
unclean
Spirits
,
and
have
done
many
great
Works
;
yet
notwithstanding
he
will
say
,
Depart
from
me
ye
Workers
of
Iniquity
,
I
know
you
not
:
Therefore
be
sober
and
serious
,
and
ponderously
consider
,
and
let
these
things
take
deep
Impression
in
your
Hearts
,
which
are
wrote
in
true
Love
,
Pity
and
Bowels
of
Compassion
to
your
Immortal
Souls
,
by
a
Mourner
over
you
,
and
a
Travailer
in
Spirit
for
your
Restoration
.
To
those
that
profess
the
Truth
,
yet
walk
contrary
to
the
Truth
in
Life
and
Conversation
.
For
many
walk
,
of
whom
I
have
told
you
often
,
and
now
I
tell
you
we●ping
,
that
they
are
Enemies
to
the
Cross
of
Christ
,
&c.

ANd
all
you
who
make
a
Profession
of
the
Light
and
Truth
in
Words
,
but
in
Works
deny
it
,
whose
Conversations
are
loose
and
vain
,
and
not
consistant
with
your
Profession
,
nor
answerable
,
but
repugnant
to
Truth
,
you
do
not
conduce
to
the
honour
of
Truth
,
but
produce
a
dishonour
thereunto
by
your
loofe
disorderly
walking
,
whereby
you
also
give
the
Enemies
of
Truth
advantage
against
the
Truth
for
them
to
reproach
the
Truth
,
and
those
that
walk
and
live
in
the
Truth
,
and
also
you
are
a
stumbling
Block
in
the
way
of
the
simple-hearted
,
that
hath
a
Love
and
Desire
towards
Truth
,
and
a
Grief
and
Burden
to
the
Faithful
that
love
the
Truth
,
and
live
in
it
,
and
seek
the
Glory
and
Honour
thereof
;
and
also
you
deceive
your
own
Souls
,
by
being
satisfied
with
a
Profession
of
Truth
,
without
the
possession
thereof
;
and
you
have
no
true
peace
where
you
are
,
nor
unity
with
the
Lord
,
nor
fellowship
with
his
People
;
for
the
unity
and
fellowship
of
the
Saints
is
in
the
Light
and
holy
Life
of
God
;
and
they
that
are
out
of
the
Light
(
though
they
profess
it
)
are
out
of
the
unity
of
Faith
,
and
fellowship
of
the
Sons
of
God
,
and
such
are
but
gotten
into
the
outward
Court
where
the
Gentiles
,
the
uncircumcised
in
Heart
can
come
;
but
blessed
are
all
they
that
do
the
Will
of
God
,
and
keep
his
Commandments
,
and
have
right
to
the
Tree
of
Life
,
and
enter
through
the
Gate
into
the
City
,
where
no
unclean
thing
can
come
:
So
all
you
that
profess
the
Truth
,
and
walk
contrary
to
the
Truth
,
come
to
be
faithful
and
obedient
to
the
Truth
,
that
in
the
Way
of
Truth
and
Righteousness
you
may
walk
as
becometh
Truth
;
and
that
in
the
Light
you
may
shine
as
Lights
in
your
holy
Lives
and
blameless
unspotted
Conversations
,
to
the
praise
and
glory
of
God
,
and
to
the
peace
,
rest
,
comfort
and
happiness
of
your
own
Souls
:
verily
no
Hypocrite
in
Sion
can
be
hid
from
the
Lord
,
who
giveth
the
Churches
to
know
that
it
is
he
that
searcheth
the
Heart
and
tryeth
the
Reins
,
who
saith
,
I
come
quickly
,
and
my
reward
is
with
me
,
to
give
to
every
one
according
as
his
work
shall
be
.
To
all
those
that
are
Convinced
of
the
Truth
but
still
remain
in
the
World's
Ways
.
If
you
know
these
things
,
happy
are
you
if
you
do
them
:
He
that
knoweth
the
Fathers
Will
,
and
doth
it
not
,
is
worthy
of
many
stripes
,
John
13.

AND
all
you
that
are
convinced
of
the
Truth
&
Way
of
God
,
but
do
not
resign
up
your
Hearts
in
obedience
to
walk
therein
,
but
still
remain
in
the
broad
way
of
the
World
,
partaking
with
them
of
their
Sins
,
Idolatry
and
falfe
Worship
;
and
though
you
see
the
Vanity
and
Evil
thereof
,
yet
(
for
by-ends
and
carnal
self-interests
,
to
save
your selves
from
Reproach
and
Suffering
)
you
joyn
with
them
therein
against
the
pure
Witness
of
God
in
your
own
Consciences
;
and
if
you
continue
partaking
with
them
of
their
Sins
,
how
can
you
but
expect
also
to
partake
of
their
Plagues
,
except
you
haste
out
from
among
them
,
and
embrace
and
receive
the
Truth
in
the
Love
and
Obedience
of
it
?
Oh!
come
out
,
come
out
from
amongst
them
,
and
be
you
separated
,
and
touch
no
more
the
Unclean
Thing
,
that
the
Lord
may
receive
you
unto
himself
,
and
become
your
God
,
and
you
become
his
People
.
Oh!
you
that
know
the
Fathers
Will
,
and
do
it
not
,
are
you
not
worthy
of
many
Stripes
?
Oh
,
poor
Hearts
!
shun
not
the
Cross
any
longer
,
neither
be
ashamed
of
the
Reproach
,
nor
ashamed
of
the
Lord
and
his
People
before
Men
;
but
give
up
your
Hearts
to
obey
the
Lord
and
his
precious
Truth
,
and
take
up
the
daily
Cross
,
that
crucifies
unto
the
World
and
Worldly
Things
,
unto
the
Sin
;
Wickedness
,
Formal
Worships
,
Vain
Customs
,
Ceremonies
,
Pride
and
Vanity
thereof
,
and
follow
the
Lamb
in
the
narrow
Way
of
Holiness
;
and
be
willing
to
Suffer
with
Christ
,
and
you
shall
Reign
with
him
;
and
love
not
your
Lives
unto
Death
,
and
you
shall
have
a
Crown
of
Life
.
Oh!
how
long
hath
the
Lord
been
woing
many
of
you
day
after
day
,
if
not
year
after
year
,
and
hath
long
waited
(
knocking
at
the
Door
of
your
Hearts
)
in
his
Grace
to
be
Gracious
unto
you
,
who
desireth
not
that
you
should
perish
in
your
Rebellion
and
Disobedience
?
Oh!
that
the
sense
of
his
Goodness
;
Mercy
and
Patient
forbearing
towards
you
might
overcome
your
Hearts
,
and
make
you
willing
to
resign
up
your selves
to
walk
in
the
Way
of
Truth
,
before
the
Lord
cease
striving
with
you
(
who
hath
said
,
His
Spirit
shall
not
always
strive
with
Man
)
lest
the
Day
of
your
Visitation
pass
over
your
Heads
.
Therefore
come
forward
you
that
halt
and
linger
behind
in
the
Borders
of
Babylon
,
and
Subburbs
of
Egypt
;
and
come
nigh
you
that
stand
afar
off
gazing
to
see
what
will
become
of
us
;
He
that
is
not
with
me
(
said
Christ
)
is
against
me
;
he
that
gathereth
not
with
me
,
scattereth
abroad
;
none
can
serve
(
two
Masters
)
God
and
Mammon
.
To
those
that
are
Newly
Convinced
of
the
Truth
.
Ye
were
like
Sheep
going
astray
,
but
are
now
returned
unto
the
Shepherd
and
Bishop
of
your
Souls
:
He
shall
gather
his
Lambs
in
his
Arms
,
and
carry
them
in
his
Bosom
,

AND
all
you
who
are
newly
convinced
of
the
precious
Truth
and
Way
of
God
,
and
have
in
measure
received
Truth
in
the
love
and
belief
of
it
,
and
have
and
daily
do
give
up
your
hearts
to
obey
the
Truth
,
and
to
walk
in
the
Way
of
Righteousness
,
and
Path
of
Holiness
:
Dear
Ones
,
unto
you
my
Heart
is
open
in
the
tender
Bowels
of
my
heavenly
Fathers
Love
;
and
happy
and
blessed
of
the
Lord
God
are
you
,
if
you
do
not
faint
,
nor
grow
weary
in
your
Minds
,
nor
turn
back
again
,
as
some
have
done
,
but
persevere
on
to
the
End
.
Oh!
dear
Babes
,
whom
the
Lord
,
mighty
in
Power
,
hath
by
his
out
stretched
Arm
brought
out
of
Egypt
,
the
Land
of
Darkness
and
House
of
Bondage
,
and
hath
set
your
Faces
towards
Canaan
,
the
good
Land
of
Liberty
,
Light
,
Rest
and
Peace
:
Oh
,
travail
on
,
travail
on
ye
weak
Ones
in
the
strength
of
the
Lord
,
and
drawings
of
his
Light
,
and
look
not
back
to
Egypt
again
,
remember
Lot's
Wife
;
and
fear
not
(
the
God
of
the
World
,
the
Prince
of
the
Power
of
the
airy
mind
,
even
that
wicked
Spirit
that
once
had
dominion
in
and
over
you
,
and
kept
you
Bond-slaves
in
darkness
to
Sin
and
Corruption
)
though
he
(
the
Enemy
of
your
Souls
Liberty
,
Peace
and
Rest
)
may
pursue
hard
after
you
with
his
whole
Host
of
Temptations
,
Snares
and
Allurements
,
both
inward
and
outward
;
and
also
a
Sea
of
Troubles
,
Straits
,
Difficulties
and
Sufferings
may
appear
in
your
Way
,
both
within
and
without
,
and
Mountains
of
Fears
,
Doubts
and
carnal
Reasonings
on
every
side
,
and
also
something
in
you
ready
to
murmur
,
complain
and
say
,
Oh!
that
we
had
tarried
still
in
Egypt
,
and
not
set
one
step
towards
Canaan
;
for
the
Way
is
so
strait
,
and
the
Path
so
narrow
,
the
Sufferings
so
hard
,
and
the
Difficulties
and
Dangers
so
great
and
various
,
that
we
fear
we
shall
perish
by
the
way
,
and
not
get
to
our
desired
Rest
;
therefore
let
us
turn
back
again
,
before
we
go
any
further
.
Oh!
fear
not
,
neither
turn
back
,
but
stand
still
from
reasoning
carnally
,
and
look
not
at
the
Straits
,
Tryals
,
Dangers
,
Sufferings
and
Losses
that
may
appear
before
you
;
neither
look
at
your
own
Weakness
,
Feebleness
and
Inability
,
nor
at
the
Strength
and
Temptation
of
your
Enemy
;
but
look
up
(
ye
little
ones
)
unto
the
Lord
,
and
trust
you
in
the
Strength
of
his
Arm
,
for
he
is
God
all-sufficient
for
you
;
therefore
cast
your
care
upon
him
,
and
he
will
make
a
Way
for
you
through
the
Sea
,
and
divide
the
Waters
of
the
great
Deep
,
and
make
a
Way
for
you
in
the
Wilderness
,
and
a
Path
through
the
Thickets
,
and
make
the
Crooked
Strait
before
you
,
and
the
Rough
Smooth
;
he
will
throw
down
the
Mountains
,
and
remove
away
the
Hills
,
and
lead
you
in
a
Way
you
know
not
,
and
in
a
Path
you
never
before
trod
in
,
and
will
make
the
hard
things
easie
unto
the
Willing
and
Obedient
,
that
turn
not
back
again
to
their
old
Lovers
,
but
love
Truth
and
Righteousness
,
and
follow
on
to
know
the
Lord
in
his
Way
;
all
such
he
will
give
to
drink
of
the
Brook
by
the
Way
,
and
feed
with
Bread
from
Heaven
,
whereby
you
shall
be
refreshed
,
and
your
Strength
renewed
daily
,
in
which
Strength
you
shall
be
able
to
travail
on
without
fainting
,
and
to
run
and
not
be
weary
,
until
you
come
to
your
desired
Rest
,
and
see
the
Travail
of
your
Souls
,
and
be
satisfied
with
the
Enjoyment
of
that
you
have
travailed
after
.
So
the
Lord
be
with
you
and
keep
your
Eye
single
unto
himself
,
that
your
Hearts
may
be
full
of
Light
,
that
nothing
may
cause
you
to
stumble
and
fall
into
the
Snares
of
the
Enemy
,
who
hath
hindred
many
that
once
begun
to
run
well
;
oh
!
mind
and
keep
to
that
in
your
own
Hearts
which
makes
you
truly
sensible
of
your
particular
States
and
Conditions
,
and
in
that
sense
daily
wait
upon
the
Lord
diligently
and
patiently
for
the
sweet
Refreshings
from
his
Presence
,
and
for
the
distillings
of
his
Heavenly
Dew
,
that
so
the
tender
Plants
of
Righteousness
and
Lilly
of
Holiness
may
grow
and
spring
in
all
your
Hearts
;
that
the
little
See●
of
Life
may
become
as
a
great
Tree
,
and
every
one
of
you
may
witness
a
sitting
under
your
own
Vine
(
Christ
in
you
the
Hope
of
Glory
)
and
none
to
make
you
afraid
.
And
dear
Friends
,
look
not
out
at
others
,
but
keep
at
home
in
the
Light
,
the
Tent
;
Jacob
shall
dwell
alone
,
and
not
be
numbred
among
the
Nations
;
Esau
he
hunts
abroad
,
and
grows
weary
and
faint
,
and
then
sells
his
Birthright
for
a
Mess
of
Pottage
:
What
if
some
stumble
,
and
fall
from
the
Truth
?
let
not
that
shake
you
;
Truth
is
the
same
still
,
and
changeth
not
;
and
if
you
see
some
turn
aside
from
us
into
a
Self
separation
from
the
Body
of
Friends
,
and
endeavour
to
draw
Disciples
after
them
,
let
not
that
cause
you
to
stumble
and
question
the
Certainty
of
Truth
;
neither
be
you
drawn
away
and
tost
about
like
Children
by
them
;
but
keep
to
the
Light
,
and
in
it
follow
the
Foot-steps
of
the
Flock
;
but
follow
not
the
Foot-steps
of
the
Wandering
Sheep
,
that
have
left
their
Flock
and
are
gone
astray
,
who
are
like
to
perish
by
the
devouring
Beast
and
Enemy
of
their
Souls
,
except
in
time
they
return
again
to
the
Fold
:
And
if
you
see
some
(
amongst
our selves
)
setting
or
keeping
up
that
thing
or
practice
which
is
out
of
the
comly
desent
Order
of
the
Body
,
and
not
consistant
with
Truth
's
Government
,
let
not
that
beget
an
Occasion
of
stumbling
in
your
Minds
;
but
be
still
,
and
keep
your
Eye
single
to
the
Lord
,
and
walk
as
you
have
them
for
an
Example
(
that
are
over
you
in
the
Lord
)
who
fully
follow
Christ
Jesus
:
And
as
for
that
which
is
only
set
up
and
●eld
up
by
Man
,
out
of
Truth
's
Order
,
it
will
die
and
pass
away
,
and
Truth
will
out-live
all
.
So
unto
the
Lord
,
who
hath
called
you
out
of
Darkness
into
his
marvellous
Light
,
do
I
commit
you
to
be
preserved
unto
himself
unto
the
End
;
For
,
many
are
called
,
but
few
chosen
;
he
that
abides
to
the
End
,
the
same
shall
be
s●ved
.
To
the
true
Mourner
in
Sion
.
To
appoint
to
them
that
mourn
in
Sion
,
and
to
give
them
the
Oyl
of
Joy
for
Mourning
,
&c.
Blessed
are
you
that
mourn
,
for
you
shall
be
comforted
.
They
that
sow
in
Tears
shall
reap
in
Joy
,
&c.

OH
,
lift
up
thy
head
thou
bowed
down
,
thou
Mourner
in
Sion
,
who
art
as
one
alone
in
a
solitary
place
,
and
few
seeth
thee
,
or
knoweth
thy
Sorrow
,
or
truly
sensible
of
thy
Grief
,
or
behold
thy
Tears
,
who
art
(
in
thine
own
Eye
)
as
a
Woman
forsaken
and
grieved
in
Spirit
;
as
a
Wife
of
Youth
rejected
,
who
appears
in
thy
own
Eyes
as
it
were
Miserable
and
Wretched
,
mourning
in
the
sence
of
thy
own
(
as
thou
thinkest
)
Unworthiness
,
Failings
,
Inability
,
Emptiness
and
Poverty
,
who
art
ready
to
say
(
with
sorrow
)
Where
is
there
any
so
Poor
,
Empty
,
Barren
and
Unfruitful
to
God
as
I
?
Oh
,
I
can
do
nothing
for
the
Lord
except
(
like
Mary
)
Weep
behind
him
(
thinking
my self
scarce
worthy
to
see
his
Face
)
and
wash
his
Feet
with
my
Tears
▪
whilst
others
sit
at
the
Table
with
him
,
and
eat
of
the
Fatness
of
his
House
,
and
drink
of
the
New-wine
of
his
Kingdom
;
but
alas
for
me
!
my
Tears
are
my
Meat
and
Drink
,
because
of
the
oppression
of
my
Enemy
,
who
saith
to
my
Soul
,
Where
is
thy
God
?
dost
thou
think
thou
snalt
ever
be
worthy
to
behold
his
Face
,
to
receive
his
Love
,
and
to
have
the
Smiles
of
his
Countenance
?
And
thou
(
O
mourning
one
)
by
hearkening
to
,
and
believing
thy
Enemy
,
becometh
(
in
thy
own
eye
)
like
an
alone
Sparrow
upon
the
Flouse-top
;
and
as
the
alone
Quail
in
the
Stubble-field
;
and
as
a
Dove
alone
,
mourning
for
the
loss
of
her
Mate
;
and
so
thou
layest
thee
down
in
Sorrow
,
and
makest
it
thy
Bed
,
and
Grief
thy
Sheets
,
Tears
thy
Pillow
,
and
Sighing
and
Mourning
thy
Sleep
.
whilst
thou
believest
thy
Enemy
,
and
entertainest
those
Fears
,
Doubtings
and
Carnal
Reasonings
(
which
he
infuseth
into
thy
Heart
)
as
thy
Companion
:
But
arise
I
say
unto
thee
(
in
the
Name
of
my
God
,
and
thy
God
,
of
my
Father
,
and
thy
Father
)
arise
out
of
thy
Bed
,
for
thy
Beloved
is
at
hand
,
and
knocketh
at
the
door
of
thy
Heart
;
arise
out
of
thy
Bed
of
Sorrow
,
Fears
and
Doubtings
and
by
Faith
let
him
in
whom
thy
Soul
loveth
;
say
not
,
I
am
not
worthy
of
him
,
but
rather
say
,
Lord
,
I
believe
,
help
thou
my
unbelief
,
strengthn
my
Faith
,
make
me
more
worthy
of
thee
:
Oh
,
shut
him
out
no
longer
by
unbelief
and
doubtings
,
and
by
reasoning
with
and
hearkening
unto
the
Enemy
of
thy
Souls
Joy
,
Peace
and
Comfort
,
who
would
always
keep
thee
from
thy
Beloved
,
and
would
daily
add
Sorrow
to
thy
Sorrow
,
and
Affliction
to
thy
Grief
,
and
Weight
to
thy
Burden
,
that
he
might
(
if
he
could
)
wholly
sink
thee
down
into
the
Pit
of
Desparation
forever
:
Wherefore
hearken
no
longer
unto
him
,
for
he
was
a
Lyar
from
the
beginning
;
entertain
him
not
,
nor
his
false
Instigations
any
longer
(
n●r
by
unbelief
keep
not
him
out
any
longer
whom
thou
lovest
and
much
desirest
)
but
by
that
small
measure
of
Faith
thou
sometimes
feel'st
in
God
,
though
it
be
but
as
a
Grain
of
Mustard
seed
,
endeavour
to
thrust
and
keep
out
the
Enemy
,
and
to
remove
the
Mountains
of
Fears
and
Doubtings
out
of
the
way
,
and
by
Faith
embrace
him
whom
thy
Soul
desires
more
then
Rubies
or
much
fine
Gold
;
that
so
the
N●gh●s
of
thy
Sorrow
and
Mourning
for
him
in
thy
Bed
of
Fears
and
Doubtings
may
be
turned
into
sweet
reposes
with
him
in
his
Bed
of
Solace
;
that
thou
mayst
say
with
gladness
of
heart
,
the
False
Accuser
is
cast
out
,
and
my
Beloved
is
come
,
is
come
,
and
his
reward
is
with
him
;
he
hath
taken
me
from
my
mourning
state
into
his
Banqueting-house
of
Joy
,
Peace
,
Rest
and
true
Satisfaction
,
and
his
Banner
over
me
is
Love
;
and
now
my
Sorrow
is
turned
into
Joy
;
and
I
that
once
sate
mourning
in
the
Pit
of
doubtings
and
unbelief
,
hath
the
Lord
(
upon
the
wings
of
Faith
)
raised
up
to
come
to
sing
in
the
hight
of
Sion
,
and
to
flow
to
the
goodness
of
my
God
,
who
hath
exalted
my
Horn
in
him
,
and
enlarged
my
Mouth
over
my
Enemy
,
whose
Mouth
was
enlarged
over
me
in
the
day
I
bowed
under
him
through
unbelief
and
doubtings
:
Oh
,
then
feebleness
possessed
my
Loins
,
weakness
my
Knees
,
and
faintness
my
Heart
;
so
that
when
I
rose
up
to
go
(
towards
my
Beloved
)
I
fell
by
doubtings
and
fears
;
but
now
,
I
that
stumbled
,
am
(
by
Faith
in
the
Power
of
my
God
)
girt
with
Strength
,
and
the
Bow
of
the
mighty
man
(
that
prevailed
against
me
broken
in
pieces
,
who
so
often
wounded
me
with
his
Darts
,
that
I
was
like
to
poor
Lazarus
,
full
of
Wounds
,
Bruises
and
Sores
;
but
the
Great
Physician
of
Souls
hath
healed
me
with
the
Oyl
of
Faith
and
Salvation
;
and
now
I
find
that
it
is
the
Lord
that
bindeth
up
the
broken
in
heart
,
&
healeth
all
their
wounds
;
Oh
,
blessed
be
the
Lord
who
hath
exalted
my
low
Estate
,
and
brought
me
from
off
the
Dunghil
,
and
given
me
a
Mansion
in
the
Father's
House
,
and
a
place
at
the
Table
with
his
Children
;
though
I
once
,
by
hearken
to
my
Enemy
,
said
,
I
was
a
Dog
,
and
not
worthy
to
eat
of
the
Childrens
Bread
;
and
so
I
kept
good
things
from
me
by
yeilding
to
my
Adversary
,
who
would
still
have
feed
me
with
his
food
,
even
the
dust
of
the
Earth
,
that
so
I
might
have
continued
always
Weak
,
Lean
,
Barren
and
Feeble
,
and
never
to
have
been
able
to
overcome
him
;
but
the
Lord
my
tender
God
(
who
thought
upon
me
in
the
day
of
my
distress
,
when
I
was
poor
and
needy
)
hath
rebuked
him
,
and
hath
put
him
under
my
Feet
,
the
mighty
the
Lord
hath
brought
down
from
his
Seat
,
and
exalted
him
of
low
degree
,
he
hath
delivered
Jacob
out
of
the
hand
of
him
that
was
too
strong
for
him
,
and
though
he
was
a
Worm
,
and
no
Man
,
and
the
cry
was
,
How
shall
Jacob
arise
?
yet
the
Arm
of
his
God
hath
raised
him
from
the
Earth
,
and
hath
set
his
Feet
upon
the
Necks
of
his
Enemies
,
and
hath
given
him
power
to
tread
upon
the
Mighty
as
the
Potter
treadeth
Clay
;
and
this
is
the
Lord's
doings
and
it
is
marvelous
in
the
eyes
of
his
Servants
,
blessed
be
his
name
for
ever
,
it
is
the
Lord
that
lifteth
up
the
weak
Hands
that
hung
down
,
and
strengthens
the
feeble
Knees
,
and
m●kes
strait
their
Paths
,
that
that
which
is
Lame
may
not
be
turned
out
of
the
Way
,
but
that
rather
it
may
be
Healed
,
that
the
Hal●ing
may
go
upright
,
and
the
Lame
may
leap
as
an
Hart
,
and
the
Tongue
of
the
Dumb
might
sing
of
the
goodness
of
the
Lord
and
the
Mourner
rejoyce
in
him
whose
Mercy
endureth
forever
.
So
believe
,
hope
and
trust
you
in
the
Lord
all
ye
that
love
him
,
and
mourn
and
long
for
him
,
and
in
patience
and
contentedness
(
without
fainting
in
your
minds
)
wait
for
him
;
for
the
Lord
is
good
to
the
man
that
waits
upon
him
,
to
the
Soul
that
seeketh
him
;
and
it
is
good
both
to
hope
and
quietly
to
wait
upon
the
Lord
,
more
then
he
that
wanteth
and
waiteth
for
the
Morning
;
for
with
the
Lord
there
is
great
Mercy
and
plentious
Redemption
,
who
redeemeth
Jacob
out
of
all
his
Trouble
,
and
is
with
him
in
the
Fire
and
in
the
Water
,
and
in
all
his
Afflictions
he
forsook
him
not
:
Therefore
trust
you
,
hope
,
relie
and
depend
you
upon
the
Lord
,
all
you
that
love
him
,
and
cast
your
care
upon
him
,
for
he
cares
for
you
,
whose
tender
compassion
and
faithfulness
will
never
fail
to
the
House
of
Israel
.
A
General
Salutation
of
Love
to
the
Children
of
Light
.
AND
all
dearly
beloved
Friends
,
everywhere
,
who
are
faithful
to
the
Lord
and
his
Truth
in
your
several
measures
and
places
,
my
very
dear
and
unfained
love
in
the
precious
Truth
of
our
God
extends
unto
all
the
honest
and
upright
in
Heart
,
who
love
and
delight
in
Truth
and
Righteousness
,
and
seek
the
Praise
,
Honour
and
Glory
of
God
alone
,
Grace
and
Love
be
with
you
,
Mercy
and
Peace
attend
you
,
Joy
and
Comfort
fill
you
,
and
the
Blessing
of
the
Most
High
rest
upon
and
remain
in
&
with
you
Day
and
Night
,
and
the
Lord
keep
you
all
in
the
Faith
of
the
Elect
Seed
,
in
which
is
your
Victory
over
the
World
,
in
which
stand
fast
,
and
keep
your
Dominion
in
the
Lord
over
the
Earth
&
earthly
things
,
that
the
Earth
may
be
the
Foot-stool
of
your
Minds
,
&
Heaven
your
Throne
,
and
you
to
sit
together
in
the
heavenly
places
in
Christ
Jesus
,
and
to
use
the
World
as
if
you
used
it
not
,
being
loose
in
heart
to
that
which
perisheth
with
the
using
;
oh
,
that
all
Friends
that
are
free
from
,
and
void
of
the
Cares
of
this
Life
,
and
Cumbrances
of
this
World
may
prize
(
and
stand
fast
in
)
their
Freedom
,
and
not
be
forward
and
hasty
(
in
the
affectionate
part
)
to
run
their selves
into
Bondage
to
those
things
that
profit
not
,
but
hindreth
to
God-ward
,
and
prove
as
Bryars
and
Thorns
to
the
choaking
or
quenching
of
the
growth
of
the
Seed
of
Life
in
the
Heart
;
there
is
a
mind
that
hunts
and
desires
after
(
and
is
ready
(
if
it
be
not
limitted
)
to
form
and
create
unto
it self
)
a
Freedom
that
stands
not
in
the
Liberty
of
the
Sons
of
God
;
the
Liberty
of
the
Sons
of
God
and
Children
of
the
Light
stands
in
that
which
is
a
Yoke
to
the
World's
Liberty
,
and
their
Freedom
stands
in
that
which
is
Bondage
to
the
carnal
Mind
,
and
crucifies
unto
the
World
and
wordly
things
;
also
there
is
a
mind
that
is
ready
to
endeavour
and
seek
to
put
off
,
and
to
keep
out
of
those
things
(
which
in
their
proper
place
may
be
said
to
be
lawful
)
that
it
seeth
it
hindreth
the
growth
into
the
Eternal
,
and
endangereth
the
Souls
standing
to
God-wards
;
and
truly
that
is
the
more
purer
mind
that
serves
(
one
Master
)
God
alone
;
Indeed
dear
Friends
,
I
am
ready
to
desire
that
this
mind
(
which
was
in
Christ
Jesus
)
may
have
dominion
in
our
Hearts
more
and
more
;
that
as
Strangers
and
Pilgrims
we
may
be
in
and
to
the
World
and
the
love
thereof
,
and
the
Lord
●lone
become
object
of
our
Love
,
and
his
Truth
the
covering
of
our
Eyes
,
that
so
the
desire
of
our
Souls
may
be
unto
him
,
and
unto
the
remembrance
of
his
Name
,
which
is
like
precious
Oyntment
pour'd
forth
,
giving
a
pleasant
smell
,
and
a
sweet
delect●ble
savour
,
and
therefore
do
the
Virgins
love
him
,
and
remember
his
Love
more
then
Wine
;
yea
,
more
then
Father
,
Mother
,
Husband
,
Wife
,
Children
,
Silver
,
Gold
,
Houses
,
Lands
;
yea
,
he
is
the
chiefest
to
them
of
ten
thousand
,
and
the
Upright
love
him
,
for
he
is
altogether
comely
.
Oh!
dearly
beloved
Friends
,
much
hath
the
Lord
God
of
power
done
for
us
,
since
the
day
he
found
us
laid
among
the
Pits
,
and
raised
us
up
from
the
Dunghil
of
our
own
Corruption
,
and
s●id
unto
us
Live
,
who
were
dead
in
Sins
and
Trespasses
;
oh
,
how
greatly
hath
he
blessed
and
prospered
us
in
despite
of
the
spirit
that
hath
so
eagerly
sought
and
endeavoured
to
devour
us
,
and
extinguish
us
from
being
a
People
,
and
hath
even
made
us
a
Family
like
a
Flock
;
and
though
Balak
and
Balaam's
spirit
(
the
Beast
,
Jezabel
and
false
Prophets
)
have
sought
Inchantments
against
us
,
to
Curse
us
,
yet
the
God
of
blessings
has
greatly
Blest
us
in
our
Sufferings
,
Tribulations
and
Afflictions
,
and
has
made
Joseph
as
a
fruitful
Bough
by
the
Wall
,
whose
Branches
grow
over
the
Wall
(
that
doth
and
will
let
until
it
be
taken
out
of
the
way
)
though
the
Archers
of
Babylon
have
shot
at
him
,
and
grievously
wounded
him
,
yet
his
Bow
(
notwithstand
his
great
Affliction
)
hath
abode
in
Strength
,
and
the
Hands
of
his
Arms
have
been
made
strong
by
the
hand
of
the
mighty
God
of
Jacob
,
who
has
blest
Joseph
,
and
unto
the
uttermost
bounds
of
the
everlasting
Hills
shall
he
be
blessed
forevermore
.
Oh
,
dear
Friends
,
if
any
People
now
in
being
upon
the
Earth
have
cause
to
speak
well
of
the
Lord
,
and
to
trust
in
his
holy
Name
,
we
are
the
People
;
for
mightily
and
wonderfully
hath
the
mighty
God
done
and
wrought
for
us
,
though
the
blind
World
sees
it
not
:
Oh!
how
have
we
been
as
Lambs
among
Lyons
,
and
yet
not
devoured
,
but
wonderfully
preserved
by
the
secret
Power
and
invisible
Arm
of
the
Lord
our
Shepherd
,
who
hath
been
our
Defence
when
the
Beasts
of
the
Forrest
have
come
forth
to
Devour
,
and
the
Wolves
have
been
greedy
of
their
Prey
,
then
hath
the
Lord
sought
for
Mount
Sion
,
and
defended
the
Hill
thereof
;
and
though
some
said
,
We
'll
pursue
,
we
'll
overtake
,
our
Lust
shall
be
satisfied
on
them
;
we
'll
draw
our
Swords
,
and
our
Hands
shall
destroy
them
;
yet
how
hath
the
Lord
blown
in
his
Wrath
upon
them
,
the
Sea
of
his
Judgment
hath
covered
them
,
and
they
are
sunk
as
Lead
in
the
bottom
of
the
mighty
Waters
,
and
we
yet
(
through
mercy
)
are
alive
,
and
have
a
being
among
the
Living
,
to
speak
well
of
the
Lord
,
and
to
make
mention
of
the
Goodnes●
of
our
Good
,
and
to
declare
of
his
Kindness
,
and
to
praise
him
for
his
Works
,
which
are
marvelous
in
our
Eyes
:
Oh!
his
Love
,
his
Mercy
and
tender
fatherly
care
over
and
towards
us
,
extends
beyond
the
demonstration
of
Words
;
and
oh
let
the
sense
thereof
be
engraven
upon
the
table
of
our
Hearts
,
that
it
may
humble
us
,
and
keep
us
low
before
the
Lord
,
and
be
an
Obligation
upon
every
Soul
of
us
,
to
bind
and
engage
us
unto
the
Lord
and
his
Truth
forever
.
How
mightily
hath
the
Lord
limitted
and
quieted
the
raging
Sea
,
and
made
a
Calm
!
oh
,
that
all
Friends
might
take
notice
of
the
great
Mercy
and
Love
of
the
Lord
to
us
in
this
particular
,
and
mind
the
end
of
the
Lord
therein
;
and
let
us
all
take
heed
we
Sin
not
,
because
Grace
and
Mercy
to
us
abounds
,
lest
it
provoke
the
Lord
to
Anger
,
and
be
a
moving
cause
to
induce
him
to
let
forth
the
Wind
,
and
suffer
a
Storm
again
.
Oh
,
that
none
might
get
into
a
false
ease
and
liberty
and
wrong
security
,
because
of
the
present
Calm
;
but
all
to
keep
retire
in
that
which
fitteth
and
maketh
ready
for
Tryals
when
they
come
,
in
,
by
and
through
which
we
have
been
upheld
&
preserved
hitherto
,
even
by
the
secret
Power
&
Arm
of
the
Lord
,
which
is
not
shortned
that
it
cannot
save
,
but
is
the
same
that
ever
it
was
;
and
it
hath
been
our
Helper
in
six
Troubles
,
and
in
the
seventh
has
not
been
wanting
to
us
,
to
help
us
when
there
hath
been
none
to
help
,
and
to
support
and
uphold
us
when
there
hath
been
none
to
uphold
,
but
Loads
,
Burdens
and
Oppressions
have
been
heaped
upon
us
,
and
to
comfort
us
,
when
nothing
but
Sorrow
and
Trouble
from
the
World
compassed
us
about
,
and
when
we
have
had
nothing
,
as
from
men
,
but
the
Bread
of
Adversity
&
the
Water
of
Affliction
;
even
then
hath
the
Lord
our
tender
God
been
the
Comforter
of
our
Hearts
,
the
Refresher
of
our
Souls
,
the
Rejoycer
of
our
Spirits
,
and
the
Lifter
up
of
our
Hands
when
we
have
been
bowed
down
with
the
Oppressions
of
our
Enemies
;
his
●resence
hath
been
with
us
in
the
Prison-house
,
and
in
the
low
Dungeon
,
and
hath
not
left
us
to
this
day
,
and
assuredly
never
,
never
,
never
will
leave
us
,
if
we
leave
not
him
,
but
will
be
with
us
until
we
have
finished
our
Course
and
fulfilled
the
dayes
of
our
appointed
Time
,
and
our
Change
come
.
So
dear
Friends
,
unto
the
Lord
I
commit
you
,
who
knoweth
how
it
is
with
all
his
Babes
and
Children
,
and
beholdeth
all
their
Tryals
,
Straits
and
Sufferings
,
inward
and
outward
,
and
his
ear
is
open
to
the
cry
of
the
Poor
,
and
groanings
of
the
Needy
,
who
is
God
all-sufficient
for
all
those
that
trust
,
hope
,
relie
and
depend
upon
him
,
and
able
to
keep
them
by
his
power
through
Faith
in
his
Name
,
unto
his
heavenly
Kingdom
:
So
the
Lord
be
with
you
all
,
and
the
Almighty
protect
and
defend
you
,
and
keep
you
from
Evil
,
unspotted
from
the
World
,
and
preserve
you
in
Love
,
Peace
and
Unity
with
himself
,
and
one
with
another
in
his
innocent
unfained
Love
,
in
his
Light
,
Life
,
Power
and
Truth
,
and
make
and
keep
you
all
of
one
Heart
,
and
one
Mind
,
and
one
Soul
;
that
you
all
with
one
consent
may
still
worship
and
serve
the
Lord
God
in
the
one
Spirit
and
the
one
Truth
,
in
which
I
dearly
greet
,
salute
and
embrace
you
all
,
and
remain
your
Friend
and
Companion
in
the
Patience
and
Tribulation
of
Jesus
;

dear
Friends

Dear
Friends
,
IN
the
Love
which
waxeth
not
Old
,
neither
is
subject
to
Change
,
which
God
hath
shed
abroad
in
the
hearts
of
those
that
believe
in
the
Light
,
through
the
operation
of
his
Eternal
Spirit
;
in
this
Love
which
openeth
our
Hearts
unto
the
Lord
,
and
one
another
,
doth
the
unfeigned
Salutation
of
my
Soul
reach
forth
unto
you
,
as
in
which
Love
Iabide
,
I
cannot
forget
the
Family
of
Love
,
and
Houshold
of
Faith
,
neither
can
length
of
Time
,
nor
distance
of
Place
,
●onds
nor
Tribulations
extinguish
the
remembrance
of
you
,
whom
the
Lord
●ath
chosen
(
out
of
the
Elect
Seed
)
from
out
of
the
Fa●ilies
of
the
Earth
,
to
place
his
Name
among
,
and
to
manifest
his
▪
Power
and
Glory
in
and
through
you
his
People
,
to
the
praise
of
your
God
,
in
your
Generation
:
dear
Friends
,
who
are
called
to
be
made
pertakers
of
the
Blessed
Everlasting
Inheritance
of
the
Saints
in
Light
,
and
through
Faith
in
the
Light
of
Life
you
are
called
and
raised
up
,
to
bear
Testimony
unto
him
whom
the
Nations
Despise
;
but
unto
you
that
believe
in
him
he
is
Pretious
,
and
you
that
have
seen
his
B●auty
and
beheld
his
Comliness
,
and
have
tasted
of
his
Love
,
and
have
savoured
the
sweetness
of
his
pre●ious
Oyntment
,
which
hath
healed
your
Wounds
,
and
cured
your
Diseases
,
and
with
which
your
Souls
have
been
Bathed
,
Warmed
and
sweetly
Refreshed
;
unto
you
that
have
tasted
of
his
Divine
Vertues
,
who
is
the
Light
of
●he
World
,
he
is
the
chiefest
of
ten
Thousand
;
who
hath
called
and
chosen
you
out
of
the
World
,
to
follow
him
in
the
Regeneration
,
and
to
bear
his
Image
before
the
World
,
and
to
shew
forth
his
Testimony
against
the
World
,
therefore
do
the
World
hate
you
,
and
desire
and
seek
your
Destruction
,
and
would
tempt
you
,
and
by
cruelty
force
you
from
the
beloved
of
you●
Souls
;
but
dear
Hearts
,
every
one
cleave
in
spirit
unto
the
Lord
,
and
hold
fast
his
bless●d
Tru●h
,
received
into
your
Hearts
,
that
the
Enemy
within
,
nor
his
Instruments
without
by
all
their
Tempta●●ons
and
Cruelty
,
may
never
move
you
to
decline
,
nor
degenerate
from
that
blessed
Testimony
which
God
hath
given
you
to
bear
for
him
,
in
the
midst
of
a
Wicked
and
U●godly
Generation
;
who
must
fill
up
the
measure
of
their
Iniquity
,
that
Judgment
may
come
upon
them
to
the
full
,
and
the
measure
of
your
Sufferings
must
also
be
fulfilled
;
therefore
,
dear
Lambs
,
hold
fast
Faith
and
a
good
Conscience
,
and
p●t
on
Courage
and
Strength
unto
the
end
;
and
hold
fast
the
Word
of
Patience
,
that
you
may
be
kept
in
the
hour
of
Temptation
,
and
the
Preservation
of
your
Souls
you
may
come
to
witness
by
the
Power
of
God
,
through
all
Tryals
,
Troubles
,
Losses
,
Straits
,
Afflictions
and
Tribulations
,
that
the
Lord
suffereth
to
befal
you
,
trust
you
in
him
,
and
depend
upon
his
everlasting
Arm
,
which
is
your
help
,
stay
and
strength
,
God
will
restrain
the
Wrath
of
our
Enemies
,
and
dissipate
the
Purposes
,
and
confound
the
Evil
Devises
of
our
Adversaries
,
so
far
as
it
seemeth
good
unto
him
;
the
Lord
God
Everlasting
who
keepeth
Covenant
with
his
People
,
and
whose
tender
Mercy
,
Compassion
and
Fatherly
Care
faileth
not
towards
the
House
of
Jacob
;
his
blessed
soul
refreshing
strengthening
Presence
be
with
all
his
People
,
to
Feed
,
Nourish
and
Strengthen
them
,
and
Cherish
them
,
Support
and
Uphold
them
,
Comfort
and
Consolate
them
in
all
their
sufferings
for
his
Names
sake
,
and
bear
up
all
his
little
Ones
,
for
whom
my
Soul
is
in
Travel
,
and
the
Lord
keep
all
his
in
the
Covenant
of
his
everlasting
Love
,
that
if
our
Earthen
Vessels
be
Broken
,
and
turned
to
the
Dust
for
the
Testimony
of
Jesus
,
our
Souls
may
rest
with
the
Lord
;
so
whether
we
Live
w●
may
Live
to
God
,
or
whether
we
Dye
we
may
Dye
unto
God
,
that
whether
we
Live
or
Dye
we
may
be
the
Lords
,
and
he
be
glorified
in
us
either
by
Life
or
Death
,
which
is
the
desire
of
your
Friend
and
Brother
in
the
love
of
Truth
.

A
Loving
Exhortation
and
Warning
to
SEA-MEN
,
and
all
others
whom
it
doth
concern
.
YOV
that
go
down
to
the
Sea
in
Ships
,
that
do
Business
in
great
Waters
,
where
you
see
the
Works
of
the
Lord
,
and
his
Wonders
in
the
deep
;
great
Cause
have
you
to
fear
and
love
the
great
God
of
Heaven
and
Earth
,
who
giveth
you
Life
and
Being
,
who
is
the
God
of
all
your
Mercies
,
who
in
Mercy
hath
oftentimes
preserved
you
in
great
Danger
and
Peril
,
and
delivered
you
when
you
have
been
ready
to
Perish
:
Oh
,
forget
not
his
Mercy
towards
you
;
but
Repent
speedily
,
and
Fear
and
Dread
his
great
Name
,
and
stand
in
Awe
,
and
Sin
no
more
against
him
,
whose
Power
is
over
all
,
who
commands
the
Winds
and
the
Seas
,
and
they
obey
him
:
When
sometimes
you
have
been
in
Great
Jeopardy
of
Your
Lives
,
and
the
Lord
hath
in
Mercy
delivered
you
,
how
little
have
some
of
You
Eyed
the
Mercy
and
delivering
Hand
of
the
Lord
therein
;
●ut
have
been
Ready
to
ascribe
the
Honour
of
your
Deliverance
to
the
Anchor
,
Cable
and
Manhood
,
more
then
to
the
Lord
;
and
when
you
have
been
in
Great
Danger
of
your
Lives
,
and
saw
no
Way
,
but
you
must
Perish
,
have
you
not
then
cryed
to
the
Lord
to
deliver
you
?
(
and
the
Guilt
of
your
Iniquities
being
heavy
upon
your
Consciences
)
have
you
not
been
ready
to
make
Promises
to
the
Lord
in
your
Distress
,
that
if
he
spared
your
Lives
,
ye
would
Repent
,
and
turn
unto
him
,
and
Fear
,
and
Serve
him
,
and
forsake
your
Evil
Ways
?
And
when
the
Lord
hath
answered
your
Desires
,
and
in
Mercy
hath
given
you
your
Lives
for
a
Prey
,
when
you
came
to
Land
,
have
you
then
performed
your
Vows
and
Promises
to
the
Lord
?
or
have
you
not
gone
on
in
Sin
and
Evil
still
?
let
God's
Witness
in
every
Conscience
speak
,
for
unto
that
I
make
my
Appeal
:
Consider
how
greatly
it
concerneth
you
Sea-men
(
and
so
it
do●h
all
other
People
)
to
mind
their
latter
End
,
and
to
be
ready
for
suddain
Death
;
let
every
particular
One
consider
seriously
how
it
stands
between
God
and
their
own
Souls
:
Oh
,
it
is
a
blessed
Thing
to
be
fit
to
Dye
,
and
to
feel
Pe●ce
with
God
;
it
is
their
Sins
and
Iniquities
that
make
People
unfit
for
God's
Kingdom
;
they
that
dye
in
their
Sins
must
perish
,
as
Christ
said
unto
some
,
Except
you
repent
you
shall
likewise
perish
;
without
Holiness
and
Purity
none
can
see
God
:
The
Soul
of
Man
is
Immortal
,
and
can
never
Dye
,
but
must
(
when
it
leaves
the
Body
)
be
in
a
feeling
Sence
of
Joy
and
Peace
,
or
Wo
and
Misery
forever
;
The
Wicked
and
all
that
forget
God
must
be
turned
into
Hell
:
Oh
that
all
People
,
Young
and
Old
,
may
repent
and
return
to
the
Lord
with
their
whole
Hearts
,
and
he
will
shew
them
Mercy
!
Prize
your
time
,
for
it
is
precious
,
and
you
know
not
how
short
it
is
:
Oh
fear
and
dread
the
Eternal
God
that
giveth
you
Life
and
Being
,
and
can
take
it
away
when
he
pleaseth
;
It
is
not
a
talking
of
being
Saved
and
Redeemed
by
Christ
,
and
of
his
dying
for
you
,
will
stand
you
in
any
stead
,
that
live
in
Sin
and
Vanity
;
Christ
said
,
A
Man
must
be
born
again
,
or
else
he
cannot
see
the
Kingdom
of
God
:
So
dear
People
,
both
Young
and
Old
,
mind
the
Pure
Divine
Light
of
Christ
Jesus
in
your
own
Consciences
,
that
which
Checketh
and
Reproveth
you
;
when
you
speak
or
act
that
which
is
Evil
,
and
come
to
Obey
it
;
for
it
is
the
Way
of
Life
,
and
will
Lead
you
,
if
you
obey
it
,
out
of
all
Sin
,
Vngodliness
and
Worldly
Lusts
,
into
the
Way
of
Life
,
and
teach
you
to
live
Soberly
,
Righteously
and
Godly
in
this
present
Evil
World
;
Then
Peace
with
God
will
be
the
Portion
of
your
Souls
.
