unity peace and concord and be united together in one bond of love and peace and never learn war any more and that they may all come to the true worship of the one God of life power and light in and overall and never to have hatred one against another concerning professed religious worship nor differ and strive about that by which the souls of all mankind come to be saved nor about the way of attaining thereunto And that all Nations and Peoples may receive the vertue of the life it self by which man may come to live for ever in that noble state of prudence innocencie wisdom in the durable dominion of divine honour ruling in the excellencie of the omnipotent power of the most infinite God of life over all that which at first in divine wisdome was sub●ected under man who then bore the Image of the immortal God of power and live in the glorious state of peace and quietness out of wrath envie and trouble and that man may be brought into that noble state of uprightness and come to be directed guided with that by which he may be renowned for ever and leave the memorial of his righteousness for a sweet savour unto many Generations to come Therefore all ye wise and prudent ancient and honorable devout zealous and religious ones let all your minds be turned from the varieties of conceptions in the vain imaginations and the vain thoughts of the dark mind which leadeth forth into the carnal conceivings of things without the pure substance of the one immortal life which in man lies hid from all that carnal wisdom which naturally ruleth in man who is fallen from the dominion and life of the God of wisdom whose delight is to dwell in his people and reveal in them his secrets and make known unto them by that which searcheth the heart the unsearchable riches of the mysteries of his will instructing them as a tender father in the perfect way of life that unto them who feel his power an eternal inheritance he may give and at last receive them in the armes of his love with him to reign in the light of endless glory for ever Wherefore let all tongues be silent and let every evil motion be denied and the passage of every vain thought be stopt and let dread and fear possess him that hath done evil and let the inward parts be searched with the light of life which is in the heart of every one of you and let your minds be wholly turned from all the visible carnal fading glory to the light of truth in you which being by you loved will lead you into meekness and into true humilitie which leadeth to and goeth before eternal honour and bringeth to be honorable in his power who ruleth in the hearts of Emperors and Kings who fear before him and he only who searcheth the heart is to be sought after above all things and the operation of his mightie power is to be felt in the inward parts judging that which hath kept man from the knowledge of his life and condemning and overturning that which hath hindered man from the sense of the feeling thereof in him the which being turned unto and loved followed obeyed will bring judgement upon that in you all which hath long kept you from the dominion of pure divine glory and love in the slavery of fleshly worldly glory which hath more and more begotten you into that which lusteth after the beauty which is to perish with them that die in it Now therefore awake ye all to righteousuesse stand in aw and sin not comune with your own hearts and be still and in the cool of the day and quietnesse of your mindes listen ye then to the voice of the Word in your hearts and prize and tender that which moveth in you against that which is evil and come to be guided by that in you which is light which cometh from him who is the God of love whose love is already shed abroad in the hearts of many which constraineth them to wait in his light to receive his power and further discoveries of his will who willeth that all men should be saved from eternal death damnation and not die under the horrible terrors of his fierce wrath nor perish in the darknesse of unbelief and rebellion against that power which made man at first upright and now from a fatherly pity doth call after all mankind that they may return from evil and come unto him and be saved from wrath to come and find plenteous redemption in the life of his power and be gathered into the comlinesse of his love and translated into the kingdom of his Immortality and reign with him who sitteth upon the Throne of unspeakable glory ruling in and over all the kingdoms of men For behold the day-star of the morning is risen and his glitterings is enlightning the dark parts of the World and unto all Nations is it arising to declare in the hearts of many the springing forth of the day of judgement upon the vail and night of darknesse which hath long covered that from man by which all man-kinde might come to see the fountain of endlesse love which now through judgement by the brightness of the light is brought near unto all people whose hearts are open to receive it and the light of the morning star which ariseth in the hearts of the beloved chosen seed is bringing to judgement the hidden things of dishonesty and in secret reproving the double-mindednesse of man that deceit defraud hypocrisie out of him may be cleansed and the ground of all vanity tyranny and lust discovered and removed that death upon death with judgement through the light may come that by the light life Immortality may come forth arise in the strength of immortal power breaking through that which separated man from unity peace and truth that unto it all nations may become subject and by the force of its lowlinesse be drawn together to the Hill of holinesse and rest together in the heavenly felicity upon the mount of refuge for ever For the Son of Righteousness is risen with healings in his wings and an overshadowing power is with him they that come to the fruit of his love are filled with peace to their souls and so comes to that which may be received in the heart and which is given to heal all nations and spring up in the midst of them as a tree of life whose fruit shall never fail whose years shall never have an end And this glorious light of life power of love is springing forth of darknesse in the hearts of thousands in the Northern parts of the World and is shining forth in the brightnesse of righteousnesse towards the utmost parts of the South and unto all kinreds upon the face of the earth reaching from the East to the West to declare and give the knowledge of immortal power which in the hearts of the humble harmlesse and single-minded may be felt and received if they rebel not against the light in the conscience nor remain in the strength of their own carnal knowledge but be willing to come out of all that which they must die unto or perish with and leave all that which never brought them to the enjoyment of everlasting rest to their souls Now therefore all ye tall Cedars of the earth whose heads are lifted up on high over others and whose mindes are exalted above the principle of meeknesse in your selves this are you all to know even that power of eternal life which is to rule in over you see that by the greatness of your honour glory in this present World your hearts be not thereby lifted up in pride ambition and wrath so as thereby to keep your selves from the attaining unto a pearl of far more greater price of a more durable substance for great is the riches honor dignity that is coming near unto you if you let not your hearts be hardened against it in the strength and perversnesse of your own wils despising the day of your visitation of love and rejecting the message of life to your souls and contemning that by which you might come to live for ever and have dominion over death and hell escape the torment which all them fall into in the day of their death who die out of the Covenant of life and peace the which Covenant that you may attain unto and come to live in for ever let love and mercie be received in you and then brought forth by you and let humilitie and fear be placed in your hearts with it in tenderness to rule over others and let the light in you which lets you see the thing that is evil lead and guide you to speak and do the thing that is good right and just and let your words be few sound sober and meek hate not them who from good will to your souls brings the reproof of life unto you or publish the word of repentance among you or proclaim this message of love and peace within your borders let not such be harmed for a day and time of visitation is coming neer upon you all and happy may you be if you receive instruction and love the light And this is something of that voyce and language which the power of life filled my heart with in love towards all people and might have been in words more at large declared among some of them had I not been hindered by hard-hearted men in this present unjust imprisonment after I had given up my body and life for that end and therein to obey that power by which I and all men living were made unto the which power most men being dead knoweth not the life I now live and therefore by them am I imprisoned reviled reproached and persecuted with the rest of them who are in scorn called Quakers H.
