a
Stripling
of
the
Lamb's
Army
.
WHereas
one
of
their
Champions
,
and
great
Goliahs
,
did
in
a
vaunting
,
high
,
and
vain
Luciferian
Boast
,
nominate
and
appoint
two
several
Weapons
,
(
as
he
called
them
)
whereby
he
would
try
their
God
to
be
the
only
true
and
living
GOD
,
and
all
other
Sects
,
or
Sorts
of
People
,
to
serve
only
the
God
of
this
World
,
or
their
Lusts
and
Bellies
,
instead
of
the
only
true
GOD.
Now
the
Weapons
he
named
are
these
,
viz.
To
fast
from
all
manner
of
Food

everlasting
LORD

Mankind

out

bear
witness

his
great

glorious
Name

which
this
proud
and
vain
Boaster
,
with
George
Fox
,
and
other
of
their
Adherents
,
have
so
greatly
dishonoured

him
,
