the Dragons Chain loosened and the smoak of the bottomless pit ascended whereby the air is darkned and what are you seeking long life here in thick darkness yea as in Egypts Land which may be felt and are not your spirits as black as Hell and as bloody as your Scarlet Robes And do they not thirst after the blood of the Saints to drink thereof who cannot drink the Cup of your Fornication Nay your day which is in darkness is short the time is at hand wherein you shall be taken with the Beast and the Dragon and cast alive into the Lake which burns with fire and brimstone for ever for by your Sorceries is the Earth corrupted And shall not a devouring fire cleanse and purifie it again yea the smoak of your burning shall ascend up for ever and for evermore yea dry trees twice dead and pluckt up by the roots yea bundles bundles for the fire are ye prepared both high and low noble and ignoble great and small even as you would have devoured so shall you be overcome for God Almighty in whose hand ye are wil plead with you who are posting on greedily after your prey but a hook shall you have in your nostrils and the prey taken from between your teeth and ye bound in chains and cast into utter darkness where shall be weeping wailing and gnashing of teeth for ever and for evermore except ye repent but if the Lord open the eyes of any of you so that you come to see where you are and be as fire-brands pluckt out of the burning should we not rejoice yea and sing for joy together to the Lord God the Lamb for ever who hath redeemed us out of Kindreds Tongues and Nations and put a new song into our mouths and how can we but praise and magnifie his Name over all for ever who hath done great things for his people whose Name is worthy to be blessed exalted and magnified over all for ever So let not the Merchants of Babylon think it a small thing for us to return back again from New Jerusalem the City of the great King to their City Babylon to sit under their Willows by the Rivers of Babylon for there we cannot sing an Hebrew song but must feed of the broth of their abominable things which our souls hate and hath no pleasure therein but as living witnesses bear our Testimony for the Lord our God against their abominations as he calls us thereunto And so let none worship the Beast nor bow to his image for the everlasting Gospel is preached again and the Angel doth flye through the midst of Heaven and the cry is gone forth Fear God and give glory to him for the hour of his judgements is come worship him that made Heaven Earth the Sea and the fountains of living waters for Babylon the great is come up in remembrance and the Judgment seat is set her plagues are begun which shal never have end the mouth of the Lord God Almighty hath spoken it So be still ye Nations and keep silent ye Isles afar off yea tremble ye Mountains melt away ye little Hills for the Lord our God is risen in power and great glory and is come to reign and the Nations are angry at his appearance who is come and coming in ten thousands of his Saints to judge the world in righteousness and to convince them of all their ungodly deeds hard speeches they have ungodlily committed yea Gog and Magog are gathering together to the battel of the great Day of God Almighty yea and he that rides on the white Horse is gone forth conquering and to conquer yea and the slain of the Lord shall be many and the Fowls are gathering together to the Supper of the Lord God that they may eat the flesh of Kings and the flesh of Captains and the flesh of mighty men for Gogs numberless number hath appeared are appearing and have drunk blood and do thirst after it and they shall be filled yea as they have done so it shall be returned again into their bosoms yea double unto her double according to her works Holy God of Life and let thy servants the Prophets sound forth thy praises in the Earth yea let the Law go forth of Sion and the Word of the Lord from Jerusalem and let the inhabitants of the Earth hear the sound thereof for Babylon the great is fallen is fallen and the smoak of her torment ascends for ever and for ever Therefore rejoice ye holy Prophets and sing for joy ye Saints of the most High for the Lord our God and the Lamb reigneth on Mount Sion and in Jerusalem before his Antients gloriously and the redeemed of the Lord are with him with Palms in their hands and songs of deliverance in their mouths yea sing ye Babes rejoice ye Lambs for your King comes riding upon an Ass Colt yea upon the Fole of an Ass yea and his Lambs he carries in his arms and gently leads those that be with young So praises praises living praises be given to his holy Name over all for ever whose Name is worthy to be praised exalted and magnified over all for ever So praise him O all ye sons and daughters and sing aloud of his noble acts for the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea and the Lyon and the Lamb lye down together and thou hast caused the root of Jesse to spring out of a dry ground yea of a little one is there become thousands O Lord who can but speak well of thy Name yea and tell of thy marvellous works and speak of thy wonders in days past yea and how thy loving-kindness extends to the ends of the Earth for when we were in our blood and no eye pityed us thou hadst compassion on us and washed us and poured oyle into our wounds and said unto us Live and caused us to rest under the shadow of thy wing when we were distressed on every side yea when our Enemies were many yea when the Floods overwhelmed us and our hope was almost gore yea then did thy secret arm of power uphold us although we saw it not yea thou brokest in upon us with thy living presence whereby we were refreshed and our strength was renewed and as we grew up in thy presence then delightedst in us and sought to do us good 〈◊〉 thou girt us about with the girdle of Truth and puttest a Bow into our hands and in thy strength hath it been bent and arrews have been sent forth whereby our Enemies have been smitten and at the appearance of thy presence have they fell yea holy Lord God Almighty strong and mighty hast thou been in pleading our cause with our enemies both within us and without us yea thou hast delivered us from the paw of the Lyon and the Bear and hast caused us to triumph in victory over our Enemies yea thou hast done great things for us and how can wo but speak well of thy Name and tell of thy wondrous works and let the people know that thou waitest to be gracious unto all Whose loving-kindness is stretcht out to the ends of the earth who in the secret of your hearts cryes Come if you wil return come and see if there be not balm in Gilead and saving-health in Israel and salvation in the Light of the Lord our God which at present in the setret of your hearts condemns you for your sin and reproves you in secret when no eye sees you it condemns you and sets your sins in order before you yea and shews you all that ever you have done as you hearken to it love it and believe in it yea love that which condemns you for your evil deeds for it is the gift of God which comes from God and leads to God again from whence man is fallen yea it wil heal your backslidings and pardon your iniquities and blot out your transgressions that they may be remembred no more and so your hearts will become upright before God for the cleansing you will come

Something written to the MAGISTRATES OF LONDON AND MIDDLESEX Who sit on the Seat of Justice who are as examples to the rest of the Nation or to whomsoever this may come that they may see the fruits of their doings and repent thereof Wi●h a sound of God's Judgements against Babylon and her Merchants Also A manifestation of God's Love to his People and an invitation to all people to turn unto the Lord who waits to be gracious yea whose loving-kindness is stretcht out to the ends of the Earth By one who hath been a sufferer for the Truth 's sake JOHN TYSO LONDON Printed in the Year 1663. Something written to the Magistrates of London and Middlesex c. O Ye men of London who fit as Heads and are as Leaders to the rest of the Nation in your proceedings and to ye the inhabitants of the Subburbs thereof do I speak yea to you chief men in Middlesex who sit in the seat of Justice What think ye the Lord hath forsaken the earth Or is it in your hearts the Holy One of Israel sees you not Consider and lay it to heart slight it not for God wil plead with you for these things What is Truth wholly become a prey amongst you and Justice and true Judgement turned backward that Equity cannot enter And have you not only the Names of Justice and the words thereof painted upon the Walls in your Courts and your hearts hardened against God and his Truth where it is made manifest And is not this Scripture fulfilled in your generation That he that departs from iniquity becomes a prey And are not the proud counted happy And are not them that work wickedness set up O ye men in Authority consider these things and lay it to heart for do not our eyes behold these things in your Courts of Judicatory And are not these things brought forth amongst you the prophane licentious persons drunkards and swearers whores and whoremongers are set at liberty and the poor despised Members of Truth kept in bonds for the exercise of a pure Conscience towards God and Man for know this it is for this very thing we suffer outward bonds and imprisonments with the spoiling of our goods because we fear the Lord and cannot run into the same excess with others but keep our Consciences void of offence towards God and man So consider how cruel and hard-hearted you have been towards us yea like Pharoah's Task-Masters have you oppressed the Seed of Jacob but know this the mighty God of Jacob in whom we trust wil as sure plead our Cause as ever he did Israel's of old who hath and wil give us strength and patience to wait upon him for deliverance in his own time So think not that pride cruelty and oppression and them that delight therein shall for ever reign and Truth be for ever slain in the streets of spiritual Sodom and Egypt where Christ was and is crucified by the generation of Cain Ismael and Esau who were murderers scoffers and persecutors of all the righteous Seed of God from Abel to this very day but know this yes assuredly Plagues Plagues is prepared Vials Vials of the Wrath of Almighty God is to be poured forth without mixture upon the seat of the Beast and upon the inhabitants of the Earth whereby they shall gnash their teeth for very pain and blaspheme the God of Heaven who hath power over these plagues that repeat not of their evil deeds but curse their God and their King which is Abaddon the Angel of the bottomless pit And so let none glory in their acts of cruelty nor boast in their own strength nor say as it was said in the Revelations Who is able to make war with the Beast For the little stone is cut out of the Mountain which hath and wil smite the great Image yea and God's Plough is entered into the fallow ground yea and all the bryars and brambles call Cedars and sturdy Oaks shall not hinder its passage through the Earth but in the fulness of time they shall be as stubble fully dryed fit for the fire and the wrath of the Lord God Almighty shall kindle upon them and burn and not be quenched til Judgment be brought forth into victory and Truth and Equity come to reign and Righteousness run down our streets for this is what the Lord requires of every man To do justly love mercy and walk humbly with his God and to love his Neighbor as himself as the Scripture faith and until then not a blessing but a curse is to be expected And this is to all you in Authority in whom the gift of God is not wholly slain but some tenderness is left in you your Consciences are so far enlightened that you cannot join in your hearts with the unjust proceeding of others take heed how you join hand in hand with the wicked neither be silent for fear of man when unjust Judgment is given against any for if you do God wil not hold you guiltless at his Judgement-seat but as you are faithful to God so shal you have your reward but if you are silent and wink at the unjust proceedings of others whereby Truth and good men come to suffer God wil require it at your hands and that which he hath given shall be taken from you and ye bound hand and foot and cast into utter darkness as wel as others where shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth for ever For know this God did not set you in places of trust to seek your selves but to act for him and to be an encouragement to good men and a terror to the wicked and as you are faithful thereunto you wil come over all the slavish fear of man although they be higher in power then yourselves and so you wil answer the end for which God hath set you which is not to please men but to do the wil of God which cannot be done by you if you seek to save self but God wil deliver the oppressed by another hand and ye shall be cast out as dung upon the face of the Earth And what think you ye Merchants of Babylon who reign as Kings and put the day of the Lord afar off and push with your horns and cry Tush away where is the promise of his coming doth not all things continue as they were since the Fathers fell asleep and is not our Kingdom restored again into its strength and vigor as before And are net the Towers of Babel rebuilt And doth not the Whore our Mother sit as a Queen with her Golden Cup in her hand And have not we made Laws and Decrees that all both small and great shall drink thereof And how should she see sorrow or we have cause to lament her downfall which you say is so near Why hear this ye Merchants of Babylon who are crept out of your holes and dens and are spread like Locusts upon the face of the Earth and at your return is
