God Psal 46.4 And surely seeing the Light gives the knowledge of our duty shews sin and evil if the Light be obeyed or truly improved it will lead out of evil and guide man in his duty to God so preserve him from the punishment And by this Light we were first called and are in it and need not thy Exhortation who art a treacherous Backslider from it P. 5 6 7. And if hearkning diligently to the Voice of Christ be the the condition joyned to the Covenant and that the Law is manifesst within and we must wait upon him that has called us with earnest prayers c. and that experience is to be had in the Mystery and Life and Salvation not in the Scripture and that the Creature is to retire it self in stillness and not to take part with the Enemy c. as thou hast largely confest What must we wait in hearken in receive Life and Salvation in or experience the Mystery And to what must we retire And by what shall we know the Voice of Christ and pray if not in and by his Light within For thou hast confessed that the spirit of the Wicked one worketh in the Children of Disobedience to do evil so the Spirit of Christ doth work in the Believer to do well which is Trurh but against thy self As also those that have been faithful to their Captain though never so little were committed to their trust shall enter into the possession And p. 8. thou tells us of some that were deceived by not keeping humble and low to follow the Lord and how hard it will be for these to be renewed except they hearken to the Voice of the Lord behind them and O that we may never forget to wait upon the Fountain of Wisdom c. Thou art one of those that art exalted thou hast not kept in humility thou hast not followed the Lord thou hast grown wanton and kick'd against his Light within thou hast not waited for his Counsel as thou oughtest but hast lusted after evil till leanness is entred into thy Soul till gross darkness is come over thee and confusion is thy snare thou hast made lies and falsehood thy refuge like an impudent immodest hard-hearted Woman Who did help thee to compose and word thy lying Pamphlet We hear Ro. Co. commends it Was he thy Patron An angry dark conceited man who glories in his folly and yet thinks he is wise though he is as full of nonsence and confusion as thou art but his and thy clamorous lying Tongues God will cut off and stop your Mouths In p. 4. thou tellst us That the Disciples whom Christ called Brethren did not call themselves the Seed This is thy blindness for were not the Children of the Kingdom called the good Seed and the Children of the Promise counted for the Seed Were they not of one holy Seed and off-spring seeing he that sanctifieth and they that are sanctified are all of one And were not they a Royal Seed a holy Priesthood And who were the Remnant of the Seed of the Woman that kept the Commands of God And it is remarkable that though thou hast often belied us yet in p. 1. hast confessed That we the people called Quakers of a truth God hath called us out of the broad way of wickedness and many Jewels were we adorned with So then we were a people called and adorned of the Lord and not with the Jewels of the Egyptians which falsly thou hast instanced in the Case Besides we are in the same Way Truth and Principles which God at first called us into though such perfidious Backsliders and Apostates as thou thy self and some others are have abused the Truth rejected his Call and cast his Law behind your backs to your own condemnation and destruction if you do not return and repent Here follows a Collection of some of thy Lyes and Slanders in thy Book against the Chosen people of God called Quakers which are rejected and returned back upon thee Lye 1.

That when they are confuted by plain Scripture they will put it off by Evasions These with several more Lyes in thy Pamphlet intended against the Quakers we return back upon thee E.A. as one that hast impudently slandered Gods people called Quakers And though thou art back-slidden and turned into lyes and lightness yet thou art fain to make use of many words and expressions thou hast learned amongst the Quakers to make thy false Coin go the more currant But the Lord hath made thee and that Reviler Ro. Co. sufficiently manifest and your wickedness will sink you down into the pit if you do not return to the Light within which you have abused and repent Thou tellest If the Lord shall call thee out of this Tabernacle of Clay That will be a sad day if thou goest on in this wickedness and impudency a sad end and terrible death will seiz upon thee if thou doest not repent in time VVhen thou art on thy Death-Bed remember thou wert warned in thy Life-time Thy vain light mind and spirit which hath brought forth Lyes against the Innocent will not be able to contend with the mighty God in that day wherein he will judge the Secrets of thee and all other Transgressors and Revolters according to the Gospel and that Light within which thou hast so much slighted and opposed Thou upbraidest some with a Common Belief of being saved by the Merits of Jesus Christ as not having Faith when we see not the Fruits of it brought forth p. 5. But what fruits hast thou brought forth and what are those Saints thou speakest of being Companions with p. 6 VVhat Saints can own thee in thy Lyes and Slanders VVhere are the Fruits of thy Faith that hast thus reviled an innocent People in general making some particular disobedient persons thy Cloak in what thou hast done But this Covering will be too narrow for thee and all such Back-●●iders who hast been forced to confess to the Principle of Truth amongst us after thou hast essayed to declare against it VVhereas thy chiefest colour is the back-sliding or transgression of some disobedient persons like thy self And not any Truth or Reason that thou canst produce against our Principles We are Witnesses to the Truth against Deceit and Impudency ANNE TRAVERS ELIZ.
