in_o your_o profession_n by_o which_o principle_n of_o god_n you_o oft_o see_v that_o you_o be_v wrong_n and_o that_o you_o do_v that_o which_o be_v not_o well-pleasing_a the_o sight_n of_o god_n in_o your_o profession_n for_o that_o principle_n of_o god_n in_o you_o the_o light_n judge_v and_o condemn_v you_o for_o many_o of_o your_o action_n which_o you_o act_v and_o sometime_o the_o lord_n

and_o stay_v of_o your_o mind_n you_o continue_v not_o long_o in_o that_o condition_n but_o you_o consult_v with_o the_o subtlety_n which_o draw_v you_o from_o god_n witness_n what_o you_o shall_v do_v and_o so_o wait_v not_o in_o that_o which_o bring_v you_o into_o tenderness_n to_o receive_v god_n counsel_n in_o that_o but_o you_o take_v counsel_n of_o the_o serpent_n and_o your_o own_o

make_v and_o be_v uphold_v and_o you_o must_v be_v subject_a unto_o the_o measure_n of_o he_o in_o you_o and_o this_o his_o measure_n if_o you_o submit_v to_o it_o that_o will_v bring_v you_o to_o cease_v from_o your_o own_o will_n and_o work_n and_o to_o wait_v in_o silence_n and_o patience_n to_o see_v and_o feel_v christ_n the_o power_n of_o god_n to_o work_v all_o your_o work_n in_o you_o and_o for_o you_o and_o if_o you_o own_o the_o light_n that_o will_v plain_o show_v unto_o you_o how_o god_n former_o appear_v unto_o you_o and_o how_o you_o go_v from_o his_o appearance_n so_o the_o light_n will_v own_o that_o which_o god_n open_v unto_o you_o at_o any_o time_n but_o it_o will_v deny_v and_o condemn_v your_o own_o imagination_n which_o you_o mix_v with_o that_o which_o god_n

with_o it_o and_o bear_v many_o thing_n for_o its_o sake_n for_o i_o have_v true_a unity_n and_o fellowship_n with_o that_o in_o you_o and_o i_o know_v it_o and_o be_o know_v of_o it_o but_o i_o can_v have_v unity_n with_o many_o of_o your_o practice_n which_o you_o have_v be_v in_o because_o they_o have_v cause_v the_o seed_n in_o you_o with_o which_o i_o have_v unity_n exceed_o to_o suffer_v you_v not_o be_v guide_v and_o lead_v into_o they_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n and_o so_o against_o all_o such_o practice_n i_o do_v bear_v witness_n in_o the_o spirit_n of_o meekness_n and_o
