A46371	The reflections of the reverend and learned Monsieur Jurieu, upon the strange and miraculous exstasies of Isabel Vincent, the shepardess of Saov in Dauphiné who ever since February last hath sung psalms, prayed, preached, and prophesied about the present times in her trances : as also upon the wonderful and portentous trumpetings and singing of psalms that were heard by thousands in the air, in many parts of France, in the year 1686 : taken out of the pastoral letters of the 1st and 15th day of October last : to which is added, A letter of a gentleman in Dauphiné, to a friend of His in Geneva, containing the discourses and prophesies of the shepherdess / all faithfully translated out of the French copies ...	Jurieu, Pierre, 1637-1713.	1689 (1689)	Wing J1212; ESTC R14047	30,643	66

the_o wise_a sort_n laugh_v at_o it_o and_o in_o a_o few_o day_n they_o say_v no_o more_o of_o it_o for_o instance_n there_o be_v a_o public_a notoriety_n of_o fact_n which_o i_o find_v still_o in_o this_o country_n that_o in_o the_o year_n 1672_o when_o the_o english_a be_v upon_o the_o coast_n with_o a_o formidable_a naval_a army_n just_a ready_a to_o enter_v into_o the_o river_n and_o port_n of_o this_o country_n to_o finish_v what_o the_o french_a have_v already_o so_o far_o advance_v there_o be_v two_o ebb_n in_o one_o day_n and_o that_o without_o any_o flow_n at_o all_o which_o retard_v the_o enemy_n fleet_n and_o give_v time_n to_o that_o of_o this_o country_n to_o oppose_v their_o design_n at_o that_o time_n every_o body_n take_v notice_n of_o it_o many_o person_n of_o good_a credit_n assure_v i_o of_o it_o but_o who_o be_v there_o that_o give_v any_o attention_n to_o so_o great_a a_o marvel_n and_o do_v not_o this_o deserve_v well_o to_o be_v formal_o put_v among_o the_o public_a record_n the_o inhabitant_n of_o maesland-slayce_a be_v more_o exact_a upon_o the_o occasion_n of_o a_o prodigy_n that_o be_v see_v in_o the_o air_n by_o certain_a seaman_n a_o little_a

that_o no_o soul_n that_o have_v a_o true_a sense_n of_o god_n will_v temerarious_o pronounce_v that_o the_o age_n of_o miracle_n be_v now_o past_a so_o that_o god_n do_v nothing_o any_o long_a immediate_o or_o above_o the_o common_a law_n of_o nature_n all_o that_o have_v be_v write_v against_o presage_n in_o this_o age_n be_v but_o so_o many_o sport_n of_o wit_n that_o serve_v to_o no_o other_o end_n but_o to_o call_v the_o providence_n of_o god_n in_o question_n these_o gentleman_n think_v they_o have_v do_v wonder_n when_o they_o have_v tack_v together_o a_o parcel_n of_o prodigy_n that_o be_v think_v significant_a and_o yet_o nothing_o follow_v they_o they_o ought_v to_o remember_v that_o their_o knowledge_n be_v too_o narrow_a to_o comprehend_v every_o thing_n and_o that_o they_o be_v not_o ingenious_a enough_o to_o dive_v into_o the_o design_n of_o providence_n nor_o into_o all_o the_o resemblance_n that_o be_v betwixt_o the_o event_n and_o the_o sign_n which_o god_n give_v to_o mankind_n to_o forewarn_v they_o of_o they_o all_o prodigy_n and_o presage_n be_v not_o necessary_o design_v to_o betoken_v dismal_a and_o sad_a event_n their_o use_n be_v to_o render_v man_n mind_n attentive_a to_o the_o work_n of_o god_n and_o to_o excite_v in_o th●m_n a_o belief_n of_o a_o divine_a providence_n if_o god_n leave_v some_o ambiguity_n in_o presage_n if_o he_o send_v they_o not_o at_o all_o time_n and_o if_o we_o can_v discern_v the_o reason_n why_o he_o send_v they_o one_o time_n and_o not_o another_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v concern_v for_o this_o be_v the_o most_o usual_a course_n of_o god_n almighty_n he_o discover_v himself_o in_o part_n and_o hide_v himself_o in_o part_n he_o leave_v some_o difficulty_n in_o every_o thing_n and_o stone_n of_o stumble_v for_o rebellious_a and_o unbelieving_a spirit_n and_o this_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n i_o have_v to_o say_v upon_o the_o occasion_n of_o this_o maxim_n that_o the_o age_n of_o miracle_n be_v now_o past_a see_v here_o now_o a_o second_o who_o have_v inform_v these_o gentleman_n that_o this_o same_o time_n of_o miracle_n be_v so_o past_a as_o never_o to_o return_v again_o i_o will_v not_o be_v think_v absolute_o to_o assure_v any_o that_o a_o age_n be_v now_o come_v in_o which_o there_o shall_v be_v man_n and_o saint_n see_v with_o miracle_n as_o in_o former_a day_n but_o real_o i_o see_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o likely_a hood_n of_o it_o notwithstanding_o and_o it_o may_v be_v miracle_n be_v as_o necessary_a to_o consummate_v the_o establish_n of_o the_o reign_n of_o jesus_n

of_o the_o rest_n of_o ●he_n pagan_n and_o the_o fall_v of_o babel_n be_v such_o great_a work_n that_o according_a to_o the_o order_n in_o which_o god_n ordinary_o do_v extraordinary_a work_n they_o who_o shall_v accomplish_v they_o may_v very_o probable_o be_v furnish_v with_o miracle_n to_o amaze_v man_n and_o beat_v down_o the_o rebellion_n of_o their_o spirit_n above_o all_o the_o conversion_n of_o the_o jew_n can_v never_o be_v wrought_v without_o miracle_n i_o believe_v i_o may_v safe_o affirm_v it_o without_o rashness_n for_o this_o be_v the_o character_n of_o that_o nation_n the_o jew_n seek_v a_o sign_n and_o the_o opiniatrety_n of_o this_o unhappy_a people_n be_v now_o mount_v to_o such_o a_o pitch_n that_o god_n must_v be_v force_v to_o employ_v all_o his_o most_o powerful_a engine_n to_o overcome_v it_o as_o to_o the_o conversion_n of_o the_o infidel_n nation_n which_o we_o also_o expect_v it_o be_v true_a that_o it_o may_v be_v accomplish_v without_o

never_o be_v bring_v about_o until_o god_n shall_v advertise_v we_o of_o it_o by_o such_o event_n and_o sign_n as_o be_v not_o perform_v by_o man_n will_v the_o better_o show_v we_o the_o finger_n of_o god._n for_o what_o relate_v to_o the_o fall_n of_o babylon_n and_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o church_n which_o we_o expect_v in_o a_o little_a time_n this_o be_v so_o great_a a_o work_n that_o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n at_o all_o that_o god_n give_v we_o such_o extraordinary_a sign_n and_o presage_n of_o it_o and_o those_o so_o very_o significant_a it_o may_v be_v there_o be_v never_o see_v so_o many_o as_o have_v happen_v within_o these_o three_o year_n without_o look_v nay_o high_o one_o must_v be_v very_o dull_a in_o my_o opinion_n not_o to_o see_v and_o not_o to_o feel_v the_o
