shall_v take_v a_o little_a notice_n of_o his_o passage_n wherein_o he_o tell_v his_o reader_n he_o shall_v make_v he_o smile_v by_o which_o those_o that_o be_v serious_a may_v see_v what_o spirit_n this_o man_n be_v of_o who_o scoff_v at_o revelation_n and_o make_v ado_n about_o my_o go_n as_o he_o say_v into_o the_o country_n when_o he_o be_v at_o london_n and_o there_o be_v neither_o preacher_n nor_o people_n now_o i_o declare_v and_o that_o in_o truth_n that_o at_o that_o time_n i_o go_v into_o the_o country_n to_o a_o meeting_n of_o our_o friend_n and_o i_o be_v tell_v that_o it_o be_v t._n p_n day_n to_o be_v there_o according_a to_o his_o usunl_a manner_n and_o have_v time_n enough_o before_o our_o meeting_n to_o go_v to_o his_o meeting_n i_o do_v go_v not_o upon_o

alter_v his_o day_n on_o that_o day_n i_o be_v there_o before_o whether_o it_o be_v to_o prevent_v my_o meeting_n with_o he_o or_o not_o i_o shall_v leave_v &_o i_o do_v say_v that_o we_o do_v not_o place_v our_o go_v to_o inquire_v for_o a_o place_n or_o person_n upon_o immediate_a revelation_n and_o i_o shall_v refer_v my_o reader_n to_o that_o passage_n of_o he_o to_o his_o reader_n that_o say_v they_o make_v we_o who_o be_v a_o great_a people_n to_o desert_v our_o place_n whether_o we_o meet_v with_o he_o and_o his_o people_n or_o no_o so_o that_o i_o have_v good_a cause_n still_o to_o trust_v in_o the_o revelation_n of_o god_n power_n which_o do_v not_o only_o confound_v and_o drive_v he_o away_o from_o disturb_v heaven_n disturb_v note_n t._n p._n come_v into_o his_o meeting_n when_o i_o be_v speak_v to_o the_o people_n in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o the_o people_n be_v general_o still_o and_o after_o he_o come_v in_o he_o endeavour_v to_o stir_v up_o the_o bad_a but_o the_o lord_n power_n be_v with_o we_o and_o t._n p._n go_v away_o and_o take_v the_o rough_a of_o the_o people_n with_o he_o &_o then_o we_o have_v a_o peaceable_a and_o a_o quiet_a meeting_n for_o about_o three_o hour_n and_o though_o he_o tell_v his_o reader_n that_o we_o be_v so_o rude_a that_o one_o will_v have_v think_v that_o we_o come_v out_o of_o a_o bear-garden_n yet_o i_o say_v this_o be_v a_o great_a untruth_n for_o such_o behaviour_n be_v not_o on_o our_o part_n who_o be_v sober_a and_o keep_v in_o god_n fear_n and_o to_o scriptural_a expression_n but_o on_o thou_o who_o say_v

may_v see_v be_v thy_o power_n as_o great_a as_o thy_o will_n that_o whip_v scourge_v and_o put_v we_o in_o the_o stock_n shall_v be_v the_o weapon_n or_o argument_n that_o thou_o will_v use_v instead_o of_o the_o sword_n of_o the_o spirit_n which_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o true_a minister_n weapon_n so_o that_o its_o manifest_a that_o a_o measure_n of_o the_o old_a persecute_v
