THE PREFACE An inlet into the Land of Promise the new Hierusalem and a gate into the ensuing Discourse worthy of serious consideration MY Deare One All or None Every one under the Sunne Mine own My most Excellent Majesty in me hath strangely and variously transformed this forme And behold by mine owne Almightinesse In me I have been changed in a moment in the twinkling of an eye at the sound of the Trump And now the Lord is d●scended from Heaven with a shout with the voyce of the Arch-angell and with the Trump of God And the sea the earth yea all things are now giving up their dead And all things that ever were are or shall be visible are the Grave wherein the King of Glory the eternall invisible Almightinesse hath lain as it were dead and buried But behold behold he is now risen with a witnesse to save Zion with vengeance or to confound and plague all things into himself who by his mighty Angell is proclaiming with a loud voyce That Sin and Transgression is finished and ended and everlasting righteousnesse brought in and the everlasting Gospell preaching Which everlasting Gospell is brought in with most terrible earth-quakes and heaven-quakes and with signes and wonders following Amen And it hath pleased my most Excellent Majesty who is universall love and whose service is perfect freedome to set this forme the Writer of this Roll as no small signe and wonder in fleshly Israel as you may partly see to the ensuing Discourse And now my deare ones every one under the Sun I will onely point at the gate thorow which I was led into that new City new Hierulalem and to the Spirits of just men made perfect and to God the Judge of all First all my strength my forces were utterly routed my house I dwelt in fired my father and mother forsook me the wife of my bosome loathed me mine old name was rotted perished and I was utterly plagued consumed damned rammed and sunke into nothing into the bowels of the still Eternity my mothers wombe out of which I came naked and whetherto I returned again naked And lying a while there rapt up in silence at length the body or outward forme being aw●ke ●ll this while I heard with my outward eare to my apprehension a most terrible thunder-clap and after that a second And upon the second thunder-clap which was exceeding terrible I saw a great body of light like the light of the Sun and red as fire in the forme of a drum as it were whereupon with exceeding trembling and amazement on the flesh and with joy unspe●k●ble in the spirit I clapt my hands and cryed out Amen Halelujah Halelujah Amen And so lay trembling sweating and smoaking for the space of half an houre at length with a loud voyce I inwardly cryed out Lord what wilt thou do with me my most excellent majesty and eternall glory in me answered sayd Fear not I will take thee up into mine everlasting Kingdom But thou shalt first drink a bitter cup a bitter cup a bitter cup wherupon being filled with exceeding amazement I was throwne into the belly of hell and take what you can of it in these expressions though the matter is beyond expression I was among all the Devils in hell even in their most hideous how And under all this terrour and amazement there was a little spark of transcendent transplendent unspeakable glory which ●urvived and sustained it self triumphing exulting and exalting it self above all the Fiends And confounding the very blacknesse of darknesse you must take it in these tearmes for it is infinitely beyond expression Vpon this the life was taken out of the body for a season and it was thus resembled as if a man with a great brush dipt in whiting should with one stroke w●pe out or sweep off a picture upon a wall c. after a while breath and life was recurned into the form againe whereupon I saw various streames of light in the night which appeared to the outward eye and immediately I saw three hearts or three appearances in the form of hearts of exceeding brightnesse and immediately an innumerable company of hearts filling each corner of the room where I was And me thoughts there was variety and distinction as if there had been severall hearts and yet most strangely and unexpressibly complicated or folded up in unity I clearely saw distinction diversity variety and as clearly saw all swallowed up into unity And it hath been my song many times since within and without unity universality universality unity Eternall Majesty c. And at this vision a most strong glorious voyce uttered these words The spirits of just men made perfect the spirits c with whom I had as absolut cleare full communion and in a two fold more familiar way then ever I had outwardly with my dearest friends and nearest relations The visions and revelations of God and the strong hand of eternall invisible almightinesse was stretched out upon me within me for the space of foure dayes and nights without intermission The time would faile if I would tell you all but it is not the good will and pleasure of my most excellent Majesty in me to declare any more as yet then thus m●ch further That amongst those various voyces that were then uttered within these were some Blood blood Where where upon the hypocriticall holy heart c. Another thus Vengeance vengeance vengeance Plagues plagues upon the Inhabitants of the earth Fire fire fire Sword sword c. upon all that bow not down to eternall Majesty universall love I 'le recover
