God hath taken a way the sackcloth and many of the Saints doe see cause to put on the garment of reioycing and are wayting for the Bridegrooms coming Thirdly the Witnesses having lain three dayes and a halfe dead which is in conformity to Christs death they must stand on their feet againe as blessed bee God they now do in this Iland Fourthly when the Witnesses stand on their feet great feare shall fall on them that see them and are not the enemies of Christ and his people in great feare in these daies who can but see it Fiftly and are not many of the Saints of Christ raised up by the Spirit of God into a glorious admiration of God and into a safe condition out of the reach of the malice and power of their enemies and their enemies be hold them but they cannot hurt Rev. 13 6.
