The Admirable and Glorious Appearance of the Eternal God in his Glorious Power in and through a CHILD of the Age of betwixt Eight and Nine Years upon her dying Bed opening her Mouth to speak forth his Praise and Extol his Reverent Holy Name and Power A short Relation whereof together with her Exercise throughout her Sickness is hereafter collected or so much thereof as was by us certainly Remembred UPON the 13th day of the 7th month 1682. did the Lord Visit Sarah the Daughter of Thomas and Ann Camme of Camsgill with Sickness the which for about two days was but gentle upon her but afterwards grew more hot and extream increasing almost continually till she was in Mercy taken to rest with the Lord. Many sweet and comfortable Expressions passed from her all along in her Sickness when she was sencible being satisfied she should be taken away often signifying the same to us saying also That she was neither afraid nor unwilling to Dye but freely given up thereto in the will of her God desiring us many times to be Content and if at any time she saw us her Parents or Sister so concerned as to weep she would cry Oh! do not so do not so and take us in her Arms tenderly Kissing and Imbracing us About an hour and a half before her departure the Lord in tender Mercy was pleased to give her a time of ease and perfect sense and also in a wonderful and more especial manner in opening her mouth to speak forth and declara his high Praises who out of the Mouth of Babes and Sucklings can perfect the same and verily did at that time through this tender Child to the admiration of all that were about her and unspeakable Joy of her Parents and Relations part of those Memorable and Weighty sayings that through the Operation of the Power and Spirit of Jesus through her were uttered were presently written down as spoken and the rest added thereto as brought to our Remembrance for that end chiefly that God may have the glory of his own Work who is worthy forever The abovesaid 13th day being the 4th day of the Week and the day following her Sickness was not so Extream as afterwards it grew to be but more mild and gentle as beforesaid but upon the 6th day of the Week being the 15th day of the Month her Distemper increased to a great height of Extremity so that her Pain and Exercise was great yet notwithstanding she was very patient under the same only many Deep Sighs and Heart-afflicting Groans proceeded from her wherefore her Father asked her If she could not breath and pray to the Lord for Help and Assistance Her answer was She could and did and further said It was her Belief that the Lord the great God of Heaven and Earth he would keep her and preserve her Soul whatever might become of her Body and often she sweetly supplicated the Lord for his Assistance and Help also blessed praised his Holy Name And thus she continued in exceeding great Pain and Exercise yet very patient under it and sensible till about the middle of the first day of the Week following not having slept above a quarter of an Hour all those several days of her Sickness so that through want of Sleep and the violence of the Distemper her head grew light and she was at several times not so sensible in her Expressions yet very Harmless and Innocent for she still retained so much sense as to know all that were about her earnestly desireing and begging to be helped home to her own Bed saying That she could not Rest nor Sleep till she came there and the like and thus she lay till about the middle of the morrow being the second day of the week and the 18th day of the month only weakened and spent very much and then as we were helping her a little up upon the Bed she on a sudden as we thought fainted her head bowing down into her bosom whereupon we lifted it up but perceiving that she did not faint but lay still in her Fathers arms we waited by her a little while her Father being sensible and signifying the same to the Family that was standing by that there was a more then ordinary Exercise upon her Mind and Spirit notwithstandi●g she lay so quiet and still yea more then she had done for four days before for her Extremity had been so great that she turned every way and removed her Head Hands and Feet often from place to place before that time but after a little space through the power of an endless Life she was revived both in Body and Spirit and bore up her head and sate upright in the Bed as if she had been well looking upon her Parents Brother and Sister with several others about her with an exceeding Cheerful and Beautified Countenance being overshaddowed with the Glory of the Eternal God and his living precious Power filling her Soul by the Operation whereof her Mouth was wonderfully opened in many weighty and living Expressions many of which as to the Substance and sense as near as we could remember are inserted as followeth viz. My Sins are forgiven me and I shall have a Resting-place in Heaven Then looking upon her Mother she held out her Arms to her and renderly Embraced and Kissed her saying Oh! my Dear Mother there 's also a place prepared for thee in Heaven and thou shalt as certainly enjoy it as any here I do not said she desire my Mothers death or to be removed from you yet we shall meet in Heaven whether she said in a short time or in Gods time we could not certainly understand for her Voice after a while speaking grew low and weak and then she would pause a little and lye still till the Lords Power again revived and gave her Utterance in the time of her Stilness seeing her Mother and most about her weep she said Oh! do not weep do not so you should not do so I am well I am well never better since I had a day and kissed most about her one by one saying Do not cry but be content in the will of God for I am so Her Father perceiving that 't was an Exercise to her to see those about her to sorrow desired all besides himself who were on the Bed with her to withdraw for a while but quickly she called them in again and began to speak on this wise Shall I go down to the horrible Pit nay the Lord hath redeemed my Soul to praise his Name on High forever Oh!
