A91474	The watcher: or, The stone cut out of the mountains without hands, striking at the feet of the image, whose head is gold, and brest of silver, and thighs of brass, and legs of iron, and feet part iron and part clay, Dan. 2. 31, 32, 33, 34, 35. Or, A discovery of the ground and end of all forms, professions, sects and opinions, and also how they now are made as friends, and joyn hand in hand against the substance, the life and power of God, which is now made manifest in his sons and daughters (according to his promise) as hath been plainly manifest in several meetings betwixt the people called Quakers, and the people called Baptists, which is here describ'd. And also a description of the true Church, ... / VVritten by a friend to all tender hearted ones, who hunger and thirst after God, who are hoping and seeking in forms for life, to the directing of their mindes, where and how to finde the true light which leads into the true life and power of Godliness, the end of all forms, where I rest with all who in spirit read me, who am known to them who are without, by the name, Iames Parnell.

and_o yet_o they_o call_v this_o a_o ordinance_n of_o christ_n &_o thus_o they_o begin_v to_o add_v their_o own_o tradition_n &_o imagination_n &_o all_o be_v by_o nature_n the_o child_n of_o wrath_n

by_o the_o will_n and_o tradition_n of_o man_n as_o they_o be_v still_o uphold_v as_o the_o false_a prophet_n always_o be_v &_o then_o they_o have_v their_o long_a robe_n like_o the_o pharise_n but_o

uppermost_a room_n at_o feast_n &_o greeting_n in_o the_o market_n as_o it_o be_v now_o and_o then_o they_o steal_v the_o apostle_n word_n as_o the_o false_a prophet_n steal_v the_o word_n from_o

therefore_o they_o profit_v not_o the_o people_n at_o all_o and_o then_o with_o feign_a or_o study_v word_n through_o covetousness_n they_o make_v merchandise_n of_o the_o people_n as_o they_o do_v now_o and_o so_o make_v a_o prey_n upon_o the_o sheep_n as_o they_o do_v now_o &_o begin_v to_o seek_v about_o for_o great_a live_n and_o fat_a benefice_n and_o leave_v a_o lesser_a and_o run_v to_o
