Fox also called many Women on his Spirit of Discerning Witche s and Sorceresses of which no proof could be found for such things was he beaten by many in the Streets No wonder Having cautioned you against this Book I proceed concerning VVilliam Pen that he was a false Prophet hath been proved and more proof we have of his not being Inspired and Infallible that he shufled in the last Persecution is well known A Quaker who valued him told me that when a Constable came to him in the Meeting to lay hold on him and said I doubt Sir you have been the Speaker which was true Mr. Pen pointed to one afar of who had also spoken That is he Whilst the Constable went to him Mr. Pen ran away out at a Back Door This Quaker said He could hardly believe his own Ears or Eyes and could not Sleep quietly several Nights after that such a pretious Speaker as Friend William was would so speak and do Contrary Doctrins have been delivered from one and the same Infallible Spirit In one Book against the Conformist he says Tell the Church c. The Church was not to be Judge of matters of Conscience In another Book for his own Courts against the Separate Quakers he says It was For the late Liberty granted them by Authority it is now declared Scripture is an exact Rule of Faith and Obedience And now the external Form of an Oath with us is abated them they swallow down such Words in the Presence of God c. which have from the Spirit been denyed to be lawful especially about Meum and Tuum I cannot believe the story Mr. Pen tells of his Father that he should say to him on his Death Bed Son if you continue in your plain simple way of Living you will put an end to all Preachers to the end of the World Is it likely so brave and worthy a Gentleman as his Father was should thus express himself for my part I cannot believe on Mr. Pen 's Testimony however if it be true I shall only say this The Father was such a Prophet as is the Son I now leave him and go to one of their greatest Men tho least censured by us Robert Barclay the Scotish-man his Theol. vere Christ Apol. in this Book is false History unfound Divinity course Latine In his Preface to King Charles II. he thus says of the Quakers Non in Angulos aut obscura loca irrepentes aut semet abscondentes sicut omnes alii professores Dissentientes fecerunt In nullis privati Conventiculis aut Secretis locis c. That they bore their Testimony always openly and none but they that by this were they known to be the People of God c. The last time I here appeared a Bristol Friend was brought forth to Testifie against me before all the People That Bristol Friends never left their Publick Meetings When I asked him in the Presence of God whether he was not one of them 〈◊〉 le●● the Meeting a long time The Man was in great distress between Credit and Conscience at last confest he had left it Months together And slunk away out of this place that when I turn'd from the People to speak to him again he was gon Barclay tells that King That the Quakers were true to him in his Adversities and he did appeal to the King's Conscience concerning their Innocency Now if King Charles thought them so he should appeal to his Ignorance not Conscience For we here all know Fox and others call'd often on Oliver Cromwel to strengthen his Forces against the Kings Return And in the name of the Lord justified what was done to the Family and the Malignants and said C. Love was acted by a bad Spirit to seek to bring him in And revil'd the Presbyterians as Apostates for attempting it Now Oh how faithful they were always to him and how Generations to come would tell what great things God had done for him In the Book he says of all Persecutions Proveniunt a Spiritu Cain et verirati contraria Well then in Pensylvania Cain would have slain G. Keith their Brother Abel Tho this Barclay be accounted by some among us better than others among them it may be a mistake He calls our Praying and Preaching abominable Idolatry He was indeed Subtit in making that Book in declining some greater Controversies between us and them and insisting on the Fall Justification by Works Perfection and other things where Popish Socinians and other Authors had stockt him with Arguments Some perhaps may wonder I have said nothing all this while of George Whitehead The true reason is I take him to be such a Fool that he is not worth Observation I heard him once Expound in Bristol Meeting Solomon's Fool not only to be a Holy but Sinless man too as I have Printed I hope others are convinced so now that have read his late Antidote to that prodigious piece of Sense called The Snake in the Grass To all the many Charges that Author brings out of their Peters how they had flattered Oliver Cromwel contrary to what they had said to King Charles and all in the name of the Lord. He only says in short This Charge is foul and false How false and not attempt to disprove one of his Evidences No doubt he knew all to be true Again he tells us how others applyed themselves to Oliver Did they say I do it in the name of the Lord pretending to a Spirit of Infallibility and Inspiration No He says also The Act of Indemnity forbids mentioning those things True by way of Reviling but not in a way of Disputation Was not that Act in Force when Pen and others twitted the Dissenters with Garments roll'd in Blood I therefore concern not my self about so weak an Adversary and declare I never will For that Quaker who Prophesied London should be Burnt within two Days when it was so it is enough to prove him not a Prophet sent of God seeing in the midst of the Flames he so often Propesied to the People The Fire should end here and then there where he would stop and the Fire should proceed no further but the Fire raged still Well it is sufficient for me to know Friends never believed their own Prophets nor regarded them therefore I pray them excuse us that we in this thing follow their Example What follows from all that I have said Historically after another hath spoken Doctrinally 1. That these Men were not true Prophets nor sent by the God of truth Are there any here so weak that I need say to them Then were they false Prophets and sent by the Devil the Father of Lyes 2. That great was their madness that tho so vile boasted of Perfection George Fox said he was Equal with God as perfect as Christ c. 3. That they were miserably deluded who almost Adored such Men Glory be to thee George Fox Holy One I close all with a great and
