Touching her Education In the time of her Mothers deep afflictions of Spirit and sore Temptations shee was well trained up in the Scriptures by her godly faithfull Grand-mother M ris Wight of Daintree And when the Lords time of Love was that he vouchsafed to manifest his Grace in Christ to her Mothers soule then the Lord brought her home to her shee being then about nine yeares old Shee gave her selfe much to read and study the Scriptures Which though shee then understood not aright yet the Lord by his Holy Spirit brought to her remembrance and opened to her since her restoring what formerly shee had read for great comfort and soul-refreshing to her selfe and to many others as hereafter followeth Which is a great encouragement to all that feare God to train up ther children in the holy Scriptures as 2 Tim. 3. 15. Chap. 1.5 Prov. 22. 6. Deut. 6. 6 7. Gen. 18. 19. III. Touching her afflictions From her childhood she was of a tender heart and oft afflicted in Spirit Her Temptations were not so great till shee was about twelve yeares old since which they have continued with more violence till April 6. 1647. it being about foure yeares Shee is not sixteen yeares old as her Mother saith till September following The beginning of her more violent Temptations was thus Her superiour bid her doe a small thing judging it meet and lawfull Shee did it doubtingly fearing it was unlawfull and as shee did it a great Trembling in her hands and body fell upon her being condemned in her selfe About a moneth after returning home having been abroad she had lost her hood and knew shee had lost it Her Mother asked her for her hood Shee suddenly answered My Grand-mother hath it Her heart condemned her instantly and trembled againe exceedingly And these were the first chiefe occasions of her deep despaire And upon this shee had cast into her Conscience that shee was both a thiefe and a lyar and was terrified ever since that shee was shut out of Heaven and must be damn'd damn'd damn'd In the last four yeares shee was oft in such extremities shee could beleeve nothing but Hell and Wrath to be her Portion and other times that there was no heaven nor no hell but in our Conscience and that shee was damn'd already being an unbeleever and therefore if shee could but dispatch this life of hers there was an end of her sorrows A subtle deceit of the old Serpent Hence shee oft attempted wickedly to destroy her selfe as by drowning strangling stabbing seeking to beat out her eyes and braines wretchedly bruising and wounding her selfe The chiefe cause of such weaknesse since Many particulars whereof follow in her own Relations But the Lord who is her life and loved her then in her bloud he wonderfully prevented her destruction many wayes Sometimes by one or other at that instant sometimes staying her in the acting when no creature was by Sometimes by bringing to her minde some choice Scripture as this No weapon form'd against thee shall prosper Isa. 54.17 or this None shall take them out of my hand or out of my Fathers hand Ioh. 10.28 29.

M r Daniel Floyd but it was soon ecclipsed againe and shee remained in grievous horror day and night concluding shee was a Cast-away a Reprobate walking daily in the midst of fire and brimstone as one in Hell already Till the Lord who had loved her with an everlasting love and in loving kindnesse prevented her ruine at last restored comforts to her and to those that had prayed and mourned for her Isa. 57. 18.
