The
Serious
Peoples
Reasoning
and
speech
with
the
worlds
Teachers
&
Professors
.
THe
Worlds
Teachers
and
Professors
say
,
The
Quakers
are
fools
,
because
they
will
not
wear
Ribbands
,
and
Idiots
,
and
novices
because
they
will
not
wear
feathers
in
their
caps
,
and
great
Scarfes
a
top
of
their
hats
,
and
to
hang
over
their
hat
brims
and
shoulders
and
their
backs
,
therefore
are
they
like
fools
,
Idiots
and
no
body
.
I
,
But
sayes
the
serious
people
to
these
professors
and
Teachers
of
the
World
you
are
more
like
novices
,
Idiots
,
and
fools
,
with
your
Scarfes
a
top
of
the
crown
of
your
hats
,
hanging
over
their
brims
upon
your
backs
,
and
your
hearers
and
people
with
feathers
in
their
Caps
,
which
are
no
where
like
Christians
,
but
are
more
like
the
Idiots
,
and
the
fools
and
novices
,
who
have
lost
your
sincerity
,
whose
minds
are
taken
up
with
these
foolish
things
,
which
destroys
your
seriousness
,
and
so
you
are
not
like
the
Saints
,
you
professors
and
Teachers
and
people
,
but
are
like
the
heathen
in
your
gorgious
Apparel
.
The
Priests
and
professors
and
the
worlds
table
talk
is
,
The
Quakers
will
not
wear
gold
Lace
,
will
not
wear
Ribbands
in
their
hats
,
nor
at
their
knees
,
nor
about
their
wastes
,
nor
a
bunch
of
Ribbands
before
them
;
nor
Ribbands
at
their
Gloves
,
nor
broad
Tassels
upon
their
shoes
,
nor
Ribbands
at
their
hands
,
nor
a
bunch
of
Ribbands
at
their
backs
as
big
as
ones
fist
,
as
our
women
and
members
of
our
Churches
do
,
and
a
bunch
of
Ribbands
at
their
bosomes
,
and
down
their
bosomes
;
and
three
or
four
Gold
Laces
upon
their
Coats
,
and
Petticoats
;
and
the
Quakers
like
a
company
of
fools
and
novices
cry
against
us
,
and
say
we
are
all
daubed
about
and
drest
with
pride
:
how
must
the
poor
live
if
we
m●st
not
wear
their
Lace
?
and
gold
and
silver
,
and
Ribbands
on
our
backs
?
I
,
But
saith
the
serious
people
,
art
not
thou
burthened
with
all
this
garb
upon
thy
back
,
and
this
vanity
?
and
doest
not
thou
spend
much
time
in
decking
thy self
?
and
doest
not
see
thy self
ill-favored
with
all
these
Ribbands
tashling
about
thy
hands
,
&
flaping
upon
thy
hat
,
and
great
bunches
as
big
as
a
hand
flaping
at
the
backs
of
women
like
a
Besome
,
and
thy
great
things
a
top
of
thy
shoes
staring
;
and
if
you
say
how
should
the
poor
live
if
you
do
not
wear
that
;
Give
them
all
that
money
which
you
bestow
upon
all
that
gorgious
attire
&
needles
things
,
to
nourish
them
,
that
they
may
live
without
making
vanities
,
and
needless
things
,
and
costly
Attire
for
you
.
And
through
that
you
will
live
,
and
they
will
live
both
;
giving
the
poor
all
that
which
you
lay
out
in
needless
toys
and
Ribbands
;
and
then
you
shall
not
be
like
fools
and
Fidlers
,
and
the
dancing
leight
women
with
all
their
bunches
of
Ribbands
and
toys
about
them
,
saith
the
serious
people
.
But
saith
the
worlds
Teachers
and
professors
;
These
Quakers
are
good
for
nothing
but
to
crosse
people
,
and
crosse
us
.
Ans.
Your
minds
that
live
in
vanities
and
Ribbands
,
and
delight
in
such
fooleries
you
are
so
peevish
,
and
so
fretful
,
and
so
pettish
,
if
the
bunch
of
Ribband●
be
not
right
as
you
would
have
them
upon
your
backs
,
&
hang
right
upon
your
breasts
,
and
your
Laces
set
right
upon
your
coats
and
Gloves
,
and
your
dressing
and
Ribbands
right
upon
your
heads
,
that
through
your
peevishness
,
and
brickleness
of
your
minds
that
live
in
these
earthly
things
,
neither
your
men
,
nor
your
maids
can
tell
how
to
please
you
,
nor
your
Taylors
to
shape
your
garments
right
for
you
;
and
so
that
which
the
Quakers
crosse
,
is
but
your
earthly
minds
that
live
in
these
earthly
toyes
,
and
so
they
are
more
your
friends
then
you
are
aware
of
,
saith
the
serious
people
;
and
we
know
you
,
for
abundance
of
of
you
are
gotten
up
lately
with
your
ribbands
on
your
backs
and
knees
,
and
your
Feathers
in
your
hats
,
and
your
bunches
of
Ribbands
about
your
wastes
,
and
dabling
of
your
Gloves
,
and
putting
on
gold
and
silver
,
which
is
contrary
to
the
Apostles
doctrine
;
for
we
have
known
the
time
when
many
of
you
did
not
wear
such
things
which
you
have
lately
got
up
,
and
put
on
,
more
like
fools
then
serious
people
,
who
are
out
of
the
Apostles
doctrine
;
who
saith
it
is
not
the
wearing
of
gold
nor
costly
apparel
;
and
so
through
your
vanity
,
you
have
lost
sincerity
,
and
gone
from
the
Apostles
doctrine
,
and
so
are
turned
into
the
lusts
of
the
eye
,
pride
of
life
,
and
lusts
of
the
flesh
.
Away
with
you
say
the
professors
and
Teachers
of
the
world
,
you
are
a
company
of
mad
men
,
you
are
not
fit
to
live
upon
the
earth
.
I
,
But
say
the
serious
people
,
you
are
the
mad
men
that
destroys
the
Creation
and
the
creatures
of
God
upon
your
lusts
,
and
the
lusts
of
your
eye
,
the
lusts
of
the
flesh
,
and
the
pride
of
life
,
which
is
not
of
the
Father
,
but
of
the
world
,
by
which
you
destroy
the
Fathers
works
,
and
the
pri●●
of
the
creatures
which
were
given
forth
to
be
used
by
the
wisdom
,
by
which
they
were
created
to
the
glory
of
the
Creator
.
Priest
▪
and
professors
and
Teachers
,
say
they
;
You
are
not
fit
to
be
talked
to
,
you
would
have
all
to
be
fools
like
your selves
,
we
have
freedom
to
plait
our
hair
,
and
hang
it
about
with
Ribbands
and
lay
it
over
our
browes
,
this
is
our
liberty
,
and
to
set
spots
on
our
faces
of
half
moons
,
and
a
coatch
and
horses
,
and
curl
and
powder
our
hair
,
and
tie
it
up
with
Bibbands
and
Jewels
.
I
,
But
say
the
serious
people
,
this
is
not
like
the
Christians
fashions
nor
the
Apostles
doctrine
,
which
saith
,
it
is
not
the
plaiting
of
the
hair
and
putting
on
of
gold
;
nor
like
Christs
doctrine
,
who
saith
they
should
not
take
thought
what
to
eat
and
to
drink
,
nor
what
to
put
on
,
for
the
Gentiles
did
so
:
but
you
are
taking
thought
for
your
gold
Lace
and
Ribbands
and
changeable
suits
,
and
cannot
tell
what
to
eat
,
nor
what
to
drink
,
not
what
to
put
on
:
you
are
more
like
the
fools
,
and
the
heathen
,
say
the
serious
people
,
then
Christians
;
And
you
tie
up
your
hair
,
and
childrens
hair
,
as
the
Ostlers
ties
up
the
horses
tails
,
and
maynes
,
and
hang
●ib●ands
at
their
ears
;
as
you
do
,
so
do
the
Grooms
and
Ostlers
in
the
wilde
horses
and
Mares
heads
,
as
you
do
your
men
and
women
,
and
so
are
a
people
that
have
forgotten
God
and
all
sincerity
;
And
so
you
are
a
people
that
take
more
pleasure
in
the
creatures
then
in
the
Creator
.
And
as
for
your
patches
and
half
moones
,
and
horses
and
Coaches
on
your
faces
,
you
are
more
like
fools
,
and
of
Jezabels
stock
(
who
betrayed
the
just
)
that
painted
Harlot
,
and
so
the
Just
have
you
betrayed
in
your selves
,
and
have
vexed
and
grieved
the
good
spirit
of
God
in
you
by
your
vanity
,
one
vanity
after
another
,
so
you
are
more
like
Jezabel
then
Christians
;
what
a
crinckling
is
here
with
your
feet
and
a
mincing
?
how
suit
you
with
such
as
the
Prophet
cryed
against
who
shall
be
covered
with
ashes
,
And
instead
of
a
sweet
smell
,
a
stink
The
Priests
and
professors
of
the
world
say
,
These
fool●
the
Quakers
,
cannot
endure
to
see
us
with
two
or
three
Rings
on
our
fingers
,
nor
I
s
in
our
ears
,
nor
bracelets
about
our
neeks
,
nor
cuffs
,
nor
double
●uffs
,
nor
g●eat
●●shling
band
strings
,
they
cannot
endure
we
should
wear
a
●aced
Cap
of
twenty
shillings
price
,
or
less
or
more
,
and
a
pair
of
double
Cuffs
u●●n
our
hands
,
and
double
white
Boot-hoose
tops
,
these
novice
Quakers
cannot
endure
to
see
us
with
this
garb
upon
our
backs
.
And
how
should
poor
people
live
if
we
should
not
wear
them
?
Say
the
serious
people
,
all
your
gold
Rings
,
your
Cuffs
,
your
great
band-strings
,
your
Lace
,
your
Jewels
,
your
Bracelets
,
your
gorgious
apparel
and
Attire
,
turn
it
all
into
money
,
and
give
it
the
poor
to
buy
them
bread
,
and
I
will
warrant
you
that
they
and
you
will
have
all
enough
,
and
there
will
be
no
want
amongst
you
,
for
you
are
alwayes
wanting
rings
,
or
Ribbands
,
gold
hat-Bands
,
Laces
or
Bracelets
,
you
are
,
alwayes
wanting
one
thing
or
another
,
if
ye
see
another
fashion
,
the
other
is
old
;
and
you
want
to
get
into
it
,
and
you
envy
others
that
are
gotten
into
the
fashion
before
you
.
And
here
is
the
Devil
the
king
of
pride
,
that
murtherer
,
that
leads
people
to
consume
and
destroy
the
creatures
upon
their
lusts
,
for
his
lusts
they
do
;
and
so
you
are
more
like
fools
that
are
slaves
to
the
Devil
,
who
is
out
of
the
truth
that
leads
you
to
destroy
the
works
and
creatures
and
Creation
of
God
,
and
all
your
want
is
of
God
;
for
you
want
God
and
his
wisdom
to
order
you
.
The
Teachers
and
professors
of
the
world
say
,
The
Quakers
are
offended
at
us
because
our
women
have
a
dressing
come
down
to
the
midle
of
their
backs
,
and
a
great
pair
of
Cuffs
upon
their
bands
,
and
how
must
the
poor
people
live
if
they
should
not
do
so
?
The
makers
of
these
things
,
say
the
serious
people
,
let
them
make
plain
things
,
and
do
you
wear
plain
things
,
and
that
money
which
you
lay
out
of
these
costly
things
,
give
you
to
them
;
for
who
are
you
like
in
the
Scriptures
?
you
are
not
like
the
Christians
,
for
what
service
is
there
in
your
wearing
a
bunch
of
ribbans
at
your
womens
backs
?
do
they
scare
flies
away
?
and
at
their
breasts
,
tashling
at
their
Arms
,
and
a
great
company
of
Ribbands
tashling
at
their
hams
and
their
heads
,
do
you
wear
them
to
scaire
flies
from
your
hams
?
why
do
you
wear
that
great
bunch
before
?
what
is
the
service
of
it
,
that
you
are
thus
drest
?
Are
you
drest
for
a
sight
,
and
a
shew
,
that
people
should
wonder
and
stare
at
you
?
or
are
you
drest
according
to
the
Scripture
,
and
the
Apostles
doctrine
and
commands
?
give
some
example
for
your
fruits
among
the
Saints
;
saith
the
serious
people
,
we
have
seen
Bedlam
people
,
and
mad
men
hang
Ribbans
in
their
Caps
,
and
at
their
horns
ends
,
and
mad
people
hang
about
with
clouts
;
so
you
are
more
like
fools
and
mad
people
then
the
Quakers
;
and
it
is
a
wonder
that
you
professors
,
and
Teachers
,
and
people
should
be
so
offended
at
the
Quakers
,
for
they
see
no
people
out-strip
you
,
except
it
be
the
Mountebancks
,
and
stage
players
,
&
French
Lackies
;
Therefore
it
is
time
for
you
to
lay
away
your
Ribbands
,
&
your
gold
and
your
rings
,
and
your
Bracelets
,
and
your
Lace
,
and
your
gold
,
and
your
silver
Lace
,
and
your
bunch
of
Ribbands
,
and
all
your
superfluity
,
and
turn
it
into
money
,
and
give
it
to
the
poor
Trades-men
that
makes
these
things
;
so
that
they
may
not
labour
to
serve
your
lusts
&
wils
to
consume
it
upon
your
lusts
,
and
that
shall
bring
more
honour
to
God
in
giving
that
which
you
waste
on
superfluity
to
the
poor
Trads-men
that
works
for
your
cons●ming
wills
and
lusts
.
Therefore
consider
saith
the
serious
people
,
for
God
will
destroy
the
world
that
lies
in
pride
and
wickedness
,
which
the
Devil
is
the
Prince
of
,
and
that
shall
come
to
an
end
,
and
it
must
be
destroyed
by
the
word
,
and
the
glory
of
the
world
will
fade
away
,
but
the
glory
of
the
Lord
will
not
,
nor
his
word
which
lives
,
abides
and
remains
and
endures
for
ever
.
Therefore
consider
all
you
children
of
pride
,
amongst
whom
the
Devil
is
,
who
is
your
King
and
R●ler
,
who
is
called
the
King
of
pride
,
who
are
alwayes
in
want
,
for
the
murthere●
and
devourer
causes
you
to
waste
the
Creation
of
God
,
and
destroy
it
,
and
so
your
want
is
for
want
of
God
and
his
wisdom
.
The
Lord
God
of
power
and
of
heaven
and
earth
,
who
will
Rule
you
with
his
hammar
,
with
his
sword
,
with
his
word
which
is
a
fire
for
all
the
children
of
pride
;
and
the
hammer
is
beating
,
and
the
sword
is
going
,
and
the
fire
is
kindling
which
will
make
all
the
proud
to
rage
with
a
burning
fire
;
Heark
cries
the
Priests
and
professors
,
and
Teachers
of
the
world
,
we
cannot
get
a
Quaker
to
the
Ale
house
,
nor
Tavern
,
nor
to
feast
with
us
,
not
to
dance
with
us
,
nor
to
hear
our
Fidlers
,
nor
Musick
(
a
company
of
precise
people
)
there
is
none
knowes
how
to
have
them
.
Say
you
s●
?
Saith
the
serious
people
,
that
is
because
they
will
not
to
the
T●●●●n
with
you
,
and
have
the
Fidlers
,
and
Pipes
,
and
Pots
,
and
you
Banquetting
,
and
Feasting
,
and
your
houting
more
like
mad
men
out
of
your
wits
,
then
men
that
fears
God
,
who
thus
destroyes
the
Creation
upon
your
lusts
.
The
Quakers
are
come
into
the
wisdom
of
God
the
〈◇〉
of
the
Creation
by
which
all
things
were
Created
,
so
that
if
they
eat
,
and
drink
,
it
must
be
to
the
praise
and
glory
of
God
;
being
in
〈◇〉
fear
so
they
cannoth
have
fellowship
with
the
destroyers
and
mar●●●s
of
the
workmanship
of
God
;
and
the
Creation
.
The
Priest●
and
professors
&
Teachers
of
the
world
Say
,
the
Quakers
will
not
d●f●
their
hats
,
nor
scrape
a
leg
,
nor
make
a
courtsie
(
a
company

Clowns

Saith
the
serious
people
,
where
do
you
read
in
Scriptures
that
the
Apostles
t●ught
any
one
that
they
should
scrape
a
Leg
,
and
make
a
Curtsie
,
or
put
off
their
hats
,
for
great
men
will
stand
with
their
hats
on
,
one
to
another
,
and
sometimes
they
will
bow
and
stir
them
,
but
they
will
seldome
bow
to
the
poor
,
or
scrape
a
Leg
to
a
begger
;
so
if
he
hath
got
a
feather
in
his
hat
,
&
a
few
Ribbands
on
his
breeches
,
and
hair
powdred
,
and
if
she
hath
gotten
a
bunch
of
Ribbens
on
her
back
,
then
theres
your
servant
Madam
,
your
servant
Sir
,
your
humble
servant
,
Mr.
then
scrape
and
curtsie
and
doff
the
hat
,
and
you
Sir
,
and
this
pleaseth
proud
flesh
,
but
to
say
(
thou
friend
)
makes
him
or
her
mad
,
which
is
a
proper
loving
word
,
and
Scripture
order
and
practice
,
and
a
sound
word
,
that
cannot
be
condemned
.
Therefore
such
proud
ones
that
bowes
not
unto
poor
people
,
and
scrape
not
unto
poor
people
,
and
〈◇〉
them
&
not
you
them
,
and
yet
they
must
be
Courtsied
to
,
and
sc●●ped
to
,
and
Capt
because
they
have
some
more
of
the
Earth
and
proud
●●●●●ell
and
their
poor
brethren
must
not
be
scrapt
,
nor
bowed
unto
,
is
not
here
respecting
persons
?
And
so
are
judged
by
the
Law
of
liberty
.
And
as
for
your
saying
it
is
your
liberty
,
to
wear
Cuffs
,
Rings
Beads
,
Jewels
,
powder
your
hair
,
gold
and
silver
lace
,
bunches
of
r●●bands
at
your
backs
,
great
scarfes
about
your
hats
,
feathers
and
Ribbands
,
great
things
a
top
of
your
shoos
;
Childrens
hair
tyed
up
(
like
horse
maines
with
ribbands
)
Like
horses
tailes
,
Lusty
great
lasses
,
and
women
full
of
paint
,
&
patches
of
horses
,
and
half
moones
upon
their
faces
;
this
is
our
liberty
saith
the
professors
and
teachers
of
the
world
,
and
all
is
ours
,
and
it
is
the
Saints
liberty
;
Nay
,
this
is
the
liberty
of
the
flesh
,
and
the
King
of
prides
kingdom
,
in
his
dominion
in
the
Earth
destroying
the
creatures
and
devouring
the
creatures
&
this
liberty
is
your
own
bondage
who
are
servants
of
corruption
,
&
this
liberty
wil
be
your
burthen
,
&
your
vanity
will
fly
you
in
the
end
,
though
you
will
not
fly
it
in
your
life
time
,
and
will
stand
you
in
no
stead
,
who
will
be
found
as
Dives
,
that
rich
glutton
,
that
fared
sumptuously
every
day
,
and
the
poor
begger
hath
a
greater
share
in
the
Kingdome
with
Abraham
Isaac
and
Jacob
then
you
;
and
sits
in
his
bosome
in
that
Kingdome
,
when
the
other
is
in
the
Lake
.
Therefore
you
that
live
wantonly
upon
earth
,
you
kill
the
just
,
and
the
Devil
is
your
King
,
(
who
is
unjust
)
and
your
Law-giver
,
who
teacheth
you
to
destroy
and
devour
,
and
to
consume
,
and
you
that
live
in
pleasures
on
the
Earth
are
dead
while
you
live
,
and
have
denyed
the
faith
,
and
are
turned
wanton
,
that
eat
and
drink
and
rise
up
to
play
,
and
go
to
dancing
,
and
are
like
the
children
of
Israel
that
danced
before
the
calfe
,
and
like
unto
Herodias
daughter
that
danced
to
please
that
glutton
&
gorgious
man
,
who
was
reproved
;
who
took
off
the
head
of
Iohn
Baptist
that
reproved
him
to
satisfie
the
lust
of
the
dance
;
and
there
,
is
the
end
of
those
that
live
wantonly
upon
Earth
,
that
kill
the
just
,
that
are
sporting
themselves
,
and
living
in
pleasures
in
the
day
time
,
such
are
gone
out
from
the
power
of
God
,
and
are
as
the
heathen
and
not
as
the
Saints
who
were
redeemed
out
of
the
Earth
,
and
its
vanities
and
pleasures
to
know
the
election
before
the
world
began
.
The
priests
and
professors
of
the
world
say
,
The
Quakers
those
fools
cannot
indure
our
puppit
plaies
,
nor
our
stage
plaies
,
nor
our
May-gaines
.
nor
our
shov●l
boards
,
nor
our
Tables
nor
Dice
nor
our
sports
nor
showes
,
nor
that
we
sh●uld
make
pictures
of
things
in
heaven
,
and
things
in
earth
,
nor
our
little
Babies
that
we
sell
,
nor
our
●mages
,
these
fooles
the
Quakers
cannot
indure
these
things
Are
you
not
ashamed
saith
the
serious
people
,
for
shame
hold
your
tongues
,
do
you
call
your selves
teachers
,
and
professors
,
and
Christians
,
and
name
the
name
of
Christ
,
and
professe
the
Apostles
words
?
Why
it
is
our
recreation
say
they
;
Recreation
?
Away
,
away
,
the
recreation
is
in
the
Law
of
God
,
the
delight
is
there
day
and
night
,
and
the
exercise
is
there
,
and
the
glorying
is
in
the
Crosse
of
Christ
that
crucifies
to
the
World
.
Are
not
you
ashamed
to
talk
of
Fidlers
,
Mountebancks
and
stage
players
,
&
Images
and
pictures
,
and
showes
,
and
your
shovel
boards
,
and
plaies
,
and
games
and
Dice
?
Away
for
shame
hold
your
tongues
,
for
they
are
works
of
the
flesh
,
and
works
of
vanity
and
delights
of
fools
that
live
in
their
pleasures
and
lusts
of
the
world
,
who
are
enem●es
to
the
Crosse
of
Christ
,
that
crucifies
to
the
world
,
and
which
is
the
Saints
glory
;
who
glories
in
the
Creator
,
but
those
that
follow
their
pleasures
,
glories
in
the
Creature
more
then
in
the
Crea
or
;
who
are
swearing
almost
at
every
word
,
and
cursing
at
every
word
,
that
there
is
such
nasty
streets
,
with
such
nasty
unsavoury
words
,
and
such
cursing
and
swearing
,
that
it
is
even
a
shame
and
loathsome
to
speak
of
,
a
den
of
Dr●●ons
,
like
as
Hell
were
broken
open
;
and
this
is
your
noise
in
your
streets
,
Tavernes
and
Ale-houses
.
Ha
,
Ha
,
cries
the
professors
and
reachers
of
the
world
,
what
do
the
Quakers
do
▪
They
bid
you
mind
the
light
of
Christ
within
you
.
I
,
saith
the
serious
people
,
if
you
did
mind
the
light
within
you
,
it
would
never
let
you
swear
nor
curse
,
nor
follow
pleasures
nor
follow
the
fashons
of
the
world
,
nor
the
vanities
,
nor
the
fooleries
,
nor
images
nor
let
you
destroy
the
creation
on
your
lusts
,
and
creatures
,
&
so
many
in
the
Nation
to
starve
for
want
of
food
,
it
would
bring
you
to
put
off
your
g●rgious
apparel
,
gold
and
silver
,
and
Rings
and
Ribbands
:
But
the
light
would
lead
you
to
Christ
the
wisdome
of
God
from
whence
it
comes
,
and
that
would
lead
you
to
order
the
creatures
to
the
glory
of
God
the
Creator
of
them
,
which
Checks
you
and
reproves
you
,
and
brings
you
●ut
of
Dives
state
,
to
poor
Lazarus
kingdome
,
but
if
you
hate
it
,
it
will
be
your
condemnation
.
And
to
you
that
is
the
word
of
the
Lord
God
,
For
when
men
are
lifted
up
in
pride
,
they
shall
not
come
nigh
them
without
scraping
and
bowing
the
hat
four
or
five
times
;
and
this
is
the
honour
below
to
fools
,
which
is
like
Snow
in
Summer
,
and
rain
in
harvest
,
unseasonable
;
Two
men
and
two
women
of
the
World
meets
the
one
the
other
,
and
being
much
offended
the
one
at
the
other
;
For
saith
the
one
,
I
bowed
three
times
to
him
and
he
scarce
bowed
once
to
me
,
and
scarce
stirred
his
hat
,
he
is
not
so
civil
and
courtious
as
he
was
wont
to
be
;
I
wonder
what
is
the
matter
;
I
courtsied
three
times
▪
the
first
almost
to
the
ground
,
and
she
scarce
bowed
to
me
,
she
made
but
halfe
a
courtsie
,
which
is
not
as
she
used
to
be
,
for
she
used
to
be
more
courtious
.
Why
how
now
saith
the
serious
people
,
you
were
finding
fault
with
the
Quakers
before
?
Who
now
cannot
please
one
another
with
your
courtsies
,
and
scrapes
,
and
your
hats
some
does
it
too
little
,
some
too
much
;
for
I
saw
one
of
the
World
,
a
great
professor
,
&
a
Teacher
,
and
he
came
to
another
that
had
been
a
Teacher
,
and
they
bowed
one
to
the
other
till
they
out-bowed
one
another
,
and
this
the
one
said
to
the
other
,
away
with
these
complements
,
So
the
most
of
your
time
is
spent
saith
the
serious
people
in
capping
one
to
the
other
,
and
courtsying
,
and
thinking
what
you
shall
eat
,
and
what
you
shall
drink
,
and
your
complements
and
fashons
.
And
this
takes
you
off
the
service
of
God
,
and
the
civilitie
which
is
in
the
truth
,
that
is
out
of
all
that
;
for
true
civilitie
stand
in
truth
and
love
that
envies
not
,
but
the
love
of
the
world
will
envie
and
be
envious
at
others
that
will
not
give
them
their
fashion
,
their
complement
,
their
courtsie
,
their
Cap
,
and
their
scrape
,
which
they
call
civilitie
,
and
that
is
not
civilitie
which
will
envie
,
for
civilitie
stands
out
of
envie
,
in
truth
and
love
that
envies
not
.
Priests
and
professors
of
the
World
say
they
,
These
clownish
Quakers
will
not
drink
in
one
,
neither
say
good
morrow
,
or
good
Evening
,
but
say
thou
to
every
one
;
Let
him
be
great
or
smale
,
they
will
thou
him
,
a
company
of
clowns
and
ill-bred
people
,
they
are
not
fit
to
dwell
upon
the
earth
.
How
now
?
Saith
the
serious
people
,
why
do
you
say
so
?
why
do
you
thus
rage
?
For
it
is
a
temptation
in
drinking
one
to
an
other
,
it
is
more
civility
to
set
down
the
cup
,
let
every
one
take
the
creatures
in
their
service
,
and
drink
as
he
needs
,
they
stand
to
serve
,
and
not
to
tempt
one
another
to
drink
more
then
doth
him
good
,
I
,
I
,
We
thought
ye
would
destroy
all
good
fellowship
,
cries
the
Teachers
and
professors
of
the
world
.
Nay
cries
the
serious
people
,
the
good
fellowship
is
in
the
spirit
,
which
gives
an
understanding
and
a
good
wisdome
,
that
is
pure
and
gentle
from
above
;
with
that
to
order
the
creatures
,
to
the
glory
of
the
Creator
,
and
the
morning
is
good
,
and
the
evening
is
good
,
for
all
things
that
God
made
were
good
;
But
bad
people
say
the
morning
is
bad
,
&
the
evening
is
bad
,
when
it
doth
not
please
them
:
And
so
to
such
we
tell
them
it
is
a
good
morning
and
a
good
Evening
,
which
they
call
bad
;
And
them
that
do
not
know
all
things
that
God
made
to
be
good
,
we
tell
them
that
they
are
;
And
them
that
say
the
morning
and
the
evening
is
bad
,
we
tell
them
it
is
good
,
but
the
night
of
darknesse
is
bad
,
where
all
the
works
of
darknesse
are
done
.
And
the
morning
of
judgement
is
good
;
but
he
will
think
it
is
bad
,
that
his
works
and
him
must
be
tryed
by
fire
which
cannot
be
quenched
.
And
those
are
the
clownes
that
do
not
know
the
Morning
good
,
and
the
Evening
good
,
but
must
be
saying
the
words
to
one
another
all
their
life
time
.
And
they
that
say
thou
to
a
particular
are
not
clownes
,
for
it
is
sound
Scripture
language
;
David
was
not
a
clowne
,
nor
the
prophets
,
nor
Christ
,
nor
the
Apostles
that
thou'd
particulars
;
and
you
'd
generalls
(
or
many
)
but
those
be
clownes
that
be
out
of
the
sound
speech
;
and
surely
these
Teachers
and
Professors
might
have
known
,
ere
now
,
and
have
taught
the
World
singular
and
plural
numbers
,
and
have
learned
their
Accedente
and
their
Grammar
ere
now
,
and
not
have
called
them
clownes
that
come
into
the
practice
of
the
singular
and
plural
;
a
clown
is
untaught
and
one
that
hath
learned
and
doth
not
practice
.
