A96517	To the present authority of Parliament now sitting, and to all other rulers and officers belonging to this nation of England, who now bears chiefest rule. Some words of reflection to you all, touching those who bear rule before you, whom the Lord hath justly put down from their seats ... but this chiefly to you who are the present rulers [to] put you in minde of the cry of the neglect of the righteous; also to yourselves a warning and true admonition. / [by] Bryan Wilkinson.

and_o break_v you_o to_o piece_n but_o if_o you_o seek_v to_o honour_v he_o then_o will_v he_o honour_v you_o if_o you_o seek_v to_o set_v up_o yourselves_o and_o the_o false_a prophet_n who_o teach_v

in_o his_o balance_n and_o you_o will_v be_v find_v want_v to_o do_v that_o which_o shall_v be_v for_o he_o but_o on_o the_o contrary_a that_o which_o be_v against_o he_o for_o this_o thing_n will_v be_v abominable_a unto_o he_o &_o you_o will_v be_v find_v do_v that_o which_o be_v evil_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o lord_n will_v be_v against_o you_o for_o this_o thing_n more_o than_o it_o be_v against_o they_o which_o be_v before_o you_o they_o be_v example_n unto_o you_o make_v who_o come_v after_o they_o for_o these_o overturning_n among_o you_o

his_o day_n wherein_o many_o be_v offer_v gift_n unto_o he_o but_o cain_n sacrifice_n will_v not_o be_v accept_v nor_o esau_n tear_n obtain_v the_o blessing_n again_o nor_o judas_n repentance_n do_v at_o all_o avail_n when_o he_o have_v betray_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o innocent_a into_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o priest_n and_o elder_n now_o if_o you_o say_v all_o this_o be_v true_a but_o what_o be_v it_o to_o we_o we_o have_v no_o such_o thought_n to_o do_v as_o the_o other_o ruler_n do_v before_o we_o as_o to_o suffer_v any_o for_o conscience_n sake_n to_o be_v beat_v whip_v or_o imprison_v or_o to_o have_v their_o good_n spoil_v or_o to_o give_v up_o the_o innocent_a into_o the_o hand_n of_o wicked_a man_n but_o the_o true_a work_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v the_o thing_n which_o we_o aim_v at_o and_o the_o exaltation_n of_o his_o son_n that_o he_o alone_o may_v reign_v according_a to_o our_o former_a engagement_n and_o promise_n which_o we_o make_v unto_o he_o if_o it_o be_v so_o then_o may_v it_o be_v say_v the_o lord_n be_v with_o you_o but_o if_o any_o of_o you_o draw_v back_o from_o this_o the_o just_a god_n will_v have_v no_o pleasure_n in_o such_o but_o his_o just_a hand_n will_v be_v against_o they_o but_o so_o many_o of_o you_o as_o do_v desire_n to_o do_v that_o which_o may_v be_v right_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o lord_n all_o self-end_n self-interest_n

be_v the_o light_n which_o christ_n jesus_n have_v enlighten_v you_o withal_o which_o be_v spiritual_a and_o you_o join_v with_o this_o it_o will_v make_v you_o like_v it_o and_o like_o he_o from_o whence_o it_o do_v proceed_v even_o christ_n the_o power_n of_o god_n to_o every_o one_o who_o believe_v and_o as_o you_o come_v to_o be_v like_o he_o then_o will_v you_o do_v the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o not_o your_o own_o then_o will_v you_o cease_v from_o your_o own_o work_n and_o do_v the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n now_o if_o you_o say_v what_o be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o we_o be_v to_o do_v in_o this_o day_n of_o his_o power_n that_o he_o will_v have_v his_o son_n to_o reign_v in_o or_o what_o can_v we_o do_v if_o he_o take_v the_o government_n unto_o himself_o my_o answer_n be_v that_o the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o this_o day_n of_o his_o power_n be_v that_o every_o one_o may_v be_v bring_v to_o be_v subject_a to_o his_o own_o power_n the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o this_o every_o one_o be_v to_o know_v in_o themselves_o which_o will_v keep_v in_o obedience_n unto_o he_o as_o they_o keep_v unto_o it_o and_o teach_v they_o how_o to_o exercise_v their_o conscience_n both_o towards_o god_n and_o man_n i_o say_v that_o this_o be_v the_o lord_n work_v which_o he_o be_v begin_v to_o work_v now_o your_o work_n and_o your_o place_n be_v to_o cherish_v such_o and_o to_o be_v a_o praise_n unto_o they_o who_o do_v thus_o witness_v the_o power_n of_o god_n in_o themselves_o in_o who_o heart_n the_o righteous_a law_n of_o god_n be_v set_v up_o which_o do_v regulate_v their_o way_n and_o so_o teach_v they_o the_o exercise_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n both_o towards_o god_n and_o towards_o man_n and_o as_o you_o yourselves_o be_v subject_a unto_o he_o who_o have_v enlighten_v you_o with_o his_o light_n with_o it_o he_o will_v let_v you_o see_v who_o be_v from_o the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o no_o otherwise_o you_o can_v see_v and_o as_o you_o yourselves_o be_v subject_a to_o the_o high_a power_n the_o power_n of_o god_n then_o with_o the_o light_n you_o will_v see_v how_o to_o exercise_v your_o power_n among_o those_o who_o be_v not_o subject_a to_o the_o high_a power_n and_o so_o be_v a_o terror_n to_o all_o evil_a doer_n now_o ruler_n be_v not_o a_o terror_n to_o good_a work_n nor_o to_o they_o that_o do_v well_o and_o this_o i_o can_v speak_v by_o experience_n who_o have_v have_v a_o share_n of_o such_o suffering_n among_o the_o lord_n people_n now_o of_o late_a who_o have_v suffer_v as_o evil_a doer_n yet_o innocent_a and_o do_v no_o evil_a but_o good_a and_o so_o the_o power_n which_o be_v a_o terror_n to_o he_o that_o do_v evil_a we_o have_v praise_n of_o the_o same_o though_o much_o we_o suffer_v by_o blind_a persecute_v magistrate_n who_o be_v from_o the_o power_n of_o god_n in_o themselves_o and_o so_o turn_v the_o edge_n of_o the_o sword_n against_o the_o innocent_a and_o deep_o have_v many_o suffer_v now_o of_o late_a year_n both_o in_o their_o body_n and_o estate_n by_o such_o blind_a persecute_v magistrate_n that_o never_o know_v the_o power_n of_o god_n in_o themselves_o from_o which_o they_o shall_v have_v act_v nor_o never_o know_v the_o power_n that_o be_v ordain_v of_o god_n but_o act_v by_o their_o own_o will_n be_v many_o of_o they_o man_n of_o prejudice_v spirit_n and_o their_o
