lord_n and_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n have_v feed_v many_o with_o a_o few_o love_n he_o command_v his_o disciple_n to_o gather_v up_o the_o fragment_n that_o nothing_o he_o lose_v john_n 6._o 12._o and_o when_o god_n be_v please_v to_o pour_v out_o of_o his_o spirit_n upon_o some_o of_o his_o faithful_a servant_n in_o our_o generation_n he_o have_v also_o some_o of_o his_o handmaid_n who_o gather_v up_o the_o crumb_n of_o that_o spiritual_a bread_n which_o the_o lord_n bless_v and_o distribute_v among_o his_o disciple_n of_o which_o number_n this_o holy_a marron_n be_v one_o now_o there_o be_v three_o argument_n where_o by_o it_o may_v appear_v that_o god_n will_v not_o have_v these_o fragment_n which_o she_o have_v gather_v into_o her_o basket_n to_o be_v lose_v viz._n first_o because_o god_n make_v they_o by_o his_o bl●ssing_n food_n to_o her_o soul_n in_o the_o gather_n and_o receive_v they_o into_o her_o own_o heart_n and_o also_o to_o the_o soul_n of_o several_a young_a virgin_n in_o her_o family_n unto_o who_o the_o lord_n make_v some_o of_o these_o crumb_n the_o bead_n of_o eternal_a life_n second_o because_o when_o she_o have_v lose_v the_o manuscript_n where_o in_o these_o and_o many_o other_o of_o her_o experience_n be_v write_v in_o a_o sea_n storm_n wherein_o she_o suff●●ed_v shipwreck_n yet_o god_n who_o preserve_v her_o life_n do_v also_o preserve_v these_o ●xperiences_n in_o her_o heart_n where_o it_o seem_v they_o be_v write_v not_o with_o ink_n but_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n three_o because_o she_o be_v presle_v in_o spirit_n to_o communicate_v they_o more_o public_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n do_v bring_v they_o ag●in_v to_o her_o remembrance_n and_o she_o have_v be_v make_v willing_a to_o publish_v they_o as_o her_o

the_o last_o day_n joel_n 2_o 28_o 29_o 31_o 32._o now_o for_o as_o much_o as_o this_o little_a book_n be_v present_v to_o thou_o christian_a reader_n as_o a_o basket_n full_a of_o fragment_n be_v not_o offend_v with_o the_o broakenness_n of_o any_o matter_n which_o thou_o may_v meet_v with_o in_o the_o read_n thereof_o consider_v that_o god_n who_o have_v make_v they_o a_o blessing_n to_o

first_o her_o extraordinary_a teach_n of_o god_n by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o word_n when_o she_o can_v not_o enjoy_v the_o ordinary_a mean_n of_o his_o own_o appointment_n this_o godly_a woman_n after_o god_n have_v begin_v the_o good_a work_n of_o grace_n in_o her_o soul_n will_v not_o loose_v any_o opportunity_n she_o can_v get_v either_o in_o public_a or_o private_a for_o her_o precious_a so●l_n but_o will_v often_o break_v thorrow_o some_o difficulty_n and_o endure_v some_o hard_a hip_n to_o enjoy_v such_o opportunity_n and_o this_o she_o do_v at_o that_o time_n when_o many_o professor_n slight_v and_o neglect_v ogr●evous_a sin_n yea_o contemn_v the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n now_o observe_v that_o a●_n she_o follow_v the_o lord_n and_o wait_v upon_o he_o in_o the_o use_n of_o the_o mean_n of_o grace_n when_o she_o can_v enjoy_v it_o so_o the_o lord_n be_v please_v of_o the_o exceed_a riches_n of_o his_o free_a grace_n not_o only_o to_o so_o her_o soul_n good_a by_o his_o presence_n and_o power_n therein_o but_o also_o when_o she_o can_v n●t_o ●njoy_v the_o 〈◊〉_d meme●_n of_o grace_n the_o lord_n wait_v to_o be_v gracious_a unto_o her_o soul_n and_o follow_v she_o with_o the_o 〈◊〉_d teach_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o word_n as_o she_o have_v witness_v in_o many_o particular_n in_o this_o her_o book_n and_o if_o thy_o experience_n courteous_a reader_n can_v seal_v unto_o the_o testimony_n that_o she_o give_v of_o those_o spiritual_a teach_n yet_o do_v not_o st●mble_v at_o they_o do_v not_o judge_v she_o for_o she_o have_v receive_v a_o unction_n from_o the_o holy_a one_o and_o be_v teach_v of_o god_n in_o the_o read_n of_o her_o book_n thou_o will_v meet_v with_o some_o sudden_a and_o unexpected_a transition_n from_o one_o thing_n to_o another_o and_o thou_o may_v think_v it_o to_o be_v some_o what_o abrupt_o yet_o censure_v not_o too_o rash_o but_o rather_o consider_v that_o even_o this_o also_o may_v yea_o do_v hold_n some_o
