AMidst the various Clans of Enthusiasts who being led astray thro blind ways by their distemper'd Brains and fantastick Notions . the Wills in the Whisp , which they mistake for a true light , none seem more positive of being guided right , and conscquently more stubborn and daring than those I am going to give you an account of .

One Mason , Minister of Bishops-Stafford , near Buckingham , a Man of a very good Life and Reputation , however now disorder'd , affirm'd to his People , that our Saviour appear'd to him on Monday the 16th of this instant April in his Chamber , and told him , that he should appear publickly on Earth at Pentecost , and judge sinners : This Story , and the Sanctity of the Man , so wrought upon the unthinking Multitude , that they flock every day into the Fields in great Companies , employing their time Night and Day in dancing and singing Hallelujahs , in expectation of his coming to Reign on Earth ; when the Sinners are to be trampled under foot , and the Righteous to be all brought to Bishops-Stafford , from whence they are to take a Progress to Jerusalem , and in their way to call in all the wandring Jews . They have prepared a great many fat Beasts to make a Sacrifice , and are so positive of the truth of this , that 't is almost dangerous to contradict them ; whole Families , Men , Women and Children , leaving their Habitations together , as if they had utterly done with all Affairs of this World . Their Number at first was but small , but in a few days encreas'd to Two Hundred , and I have since received news that they are multiplied to Five ; and I imagine that nothing but finding their own Folly will be able to convince them ; so that when their Tarantula is over , we may expect them and their Pastor to return to their several Vocations , and wait the good hour with as much patience as other People .

Had I not received this Account from a Man of undoubted Reputation , my Friend , I should scarce have credited it : But I hope this Paper may be secured from the Character of being Grubstreet , since it is in the power of every Person that pleases , in a few hours , to satisfie himself of the truth of this Relation ; who himself concludes with this Sentence , after he himself had been to see them , on Monday the 23d of this instant , Such a strange Sight , such Confusion and Madness , I never expected to see , unless in Bedlam .
