shall_v not_o see_v the_o earth_n to_o bend_v round_o he_o also_o affirm_v that_o when_o it_o be_v 12._o of_o the_o clock_n with_o we_o that_o then_o it_o be_v 12._o of_o the_o clock_n all_o the_o

not_o hold_v his_o discourse_n than_o he_o begin_v to_o father_n all_o this_o his_o error_n upon_o his_o spirit_n of_o revelation_n and_o say_v that_o it_o be_v reveal_v to_o he_o that_o it_o be_v so_o and_o therefore_o it_o must_v stand_v for_o truth_n ●e_n think_v that_o i_o will_v submit_v to_o that_o as_o many_o other_o do_v which_o believe_v all_o that_o he_o and_o some_o other_o say_v be_v a_o divine_a truth_n and_o must_v not_o be_v contradict_v by_o any_o but_o at_o the_o last_o reason_n do_v overpower_v these_o divine_a revelation_n this_o be_v in_o the_o great_a room_n or_o hall_n in_o lancaster_n castle_n at_o another_o time_n i_o speak_v of_o spirit_n and_o say_v that_o there_o be_v spiritual_a body_n and_o angel_n but_o he_o deny_v all_o and_o say_v that_o the●e_n

there_o be_v no_o distinct_a spirit_n nor_o angel_n for_o he_o can_v never_o see_v they_o in_o the_o divine_a light_n and_o further_o do_v affirm_v that_o if_o there_o be_v any_o he_o shall_v have_v see_v they_o but_o he_o never_o see_v any_o therefore_o there_o be_v none_o this_o and_o the_o like_a word_n he_o speak_v and_o hold_v forth_o to_o i_o to_o have_v i_o to_o believe_v and_o become_v a_o atheist_n or_o ranter_n for_o they_o both_o hold_v the_o same_o and_o it_o be_v their_o principle_n and_o whosoever_o hold_v the_o same_o be_v of_o the_o like_a principle_n this_o be_v speak_v in_o margaret_n fell_n room_n in_o the_o aforesaid_a castle_n then_o i_o discourse_v with_o he_o about_o the_o soul_n and_o i_o affirm_v that_o it_o have_v a_o spiritual_a body_n after_o this_o ●ife_n he_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v the_o breath_n of_o god_n and_o that_o in_o wicked_a man_n it_o be_v oppress_v with_o sin_n but_o it_o shall_v be_v redeem_v and_o return_v to_o god_n that_o give_v it_o that_o be_v that_o all_o soul_n shall_v return_v to_o glory_n peace_n and_o happiness_n and_o not_o to_o answer_v for_o any_o sin_n after_o this_o life_n after_o this_o jo._n stub_n and_o i_o be_v together_o in_o my_o chamber_n we_o do_v discourse_n about_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n after_o this_o life_n he_o say_v that_o he_o do_v believe_v that_o there_o be_v no_o punishment_n after_o this_o life_n and_o that_o which_o be_v in_o this_o life_n be_v for_o disobedience_n to_o the_o light_n and_o further_o he_o say_v that_o as_o all_o die_v in_o adam_n so_o in_o the_o second_o adam_n that_o be_v christ_n all_o be_v make_v alive_a and_o that_o all_o shall_v go_v one_o and_o the_o same_o way_n when_o they_o be_v dead_a and_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o have_v any_o punishment_n for_o sin_n hereafter_o but_o what_o be_v it_o be_v in_o this_o life_n and_o that_o the_o soul_n shall_v go_v to_o god_n that_o give_v it_o and_o further_o he_o say_v it_o be_v not_o his_o principle_n alone_o for_o geo._n fox_n do_v hold_v the_o same_o and_o geo._n say_v that_o those_o that_o do_v believe_v any_o other_o way_n be_v of_o the_o old_a opinion_n but_o this_o must_v be_v keep_v secret_a lest_o it_o shall_v cast_v a_o stumbling-block_n before_o the_o weak_a but_o as_o they_o come_v to_o grow_v up_o in_o the_o truth_n they_o will_v come_v to_o see_v it_o in_o the_o light_n but_o i_o be_v altogether_o against_o he_o and_o bring_v this_o scripture_n of_o the_o apostle_n against_o they_o which_o say_v if_o we_o have_v hope_v but_o in_o this_o life_n only_o we_o be_v of_o all_o man_n most_o miserable_a but_o let_v i_o say_v what_o i_o can_v i_o can_v not_o persuade_v he_o from_o it_o because_o geo._n fox_n hold_v the_o same_o which_o i_o find_v too_o true_a by_o discourse_v with_o he_o a●er_o this_o i_o discourse_v with_o george_n fox_n about_o the_o beast_n of_o the_o field_n and_o creep_a thing_n he_o do_v affirm_v that_o they_o have_v reason_n as_o well_o as_o man_n and_o that_o all_o the_o difference_n betwixt_o man_n and_o they_o be_v only_o that_o man_n be_v fall_v from_o his_o first_o estate_n and_o that_o the_o beast_n be_v not_o that_o man_n be_v worse_a than_o the_o beast_n i_o ask_v he_o what_o difference_n there_o be_v betwixt_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o man_n and_o of_o a_o beast_n he_o say_v that_o god_n breathe_v into_o man_n the_o breath_n of_o life_n and_o so_o he_o do_v into_o all_o creature_n and_o that_o all_o the_o virtue_n in_o all_o thing_n be_v of_o the_o light_n and_o when_o they_o be_v at_o a_o end_n they_o do_v return_v to_o god_n again_o for_o he_o look_v upon_o god_n not_o as_o be_v a_o spirit_n but_o a_o great_a light_n as_o the_o light_n of_o the_o day_n and_o the_o night_n as_o the_o devil_n and_o that_o these_o be_v two_o great_a being_n of_o themselves_o and_o be_v without_o any_o cause_n as_o the_o day_n have_v for_o the_o sun_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o light_n and_o its_o absence_n the_o cause_n of_o the_o night_n but_o this_o he_o do_v not_o understand_v i_o wish_v he_o may_v understand_v that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n which_o be_v the_o first_o move_v cause_n of_o that_o divine_a light_n and_o also_o that_o there_o be_v angel_n or_o devil_n all_o which_o he_o and_o other_o that_o believe_v not_o the_o same_o may_v come_v to_o know_v the_o truth_n of_o it_o too_o soon_o for_o if_o there_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o what_o he_o believe_v then_o what_o need_v man_n learn_v any_o thing_n and_o certain_o if_o this_o be_v true_a as_o he_o say_v than_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v true_a that_o that_o be_v a_o new_a light_n which_o he_o have_v for_o it_o be_v not_o like_o that_o which_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n have_v for_o they_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v angel_n which_o be_v spirit_n and_o also_o devil_n that_o be_v spirit_n but_o how_o any_o such_o a_o one_o can_v true_o know_v god_n and_o teach_v his_o truth_n and_o all_o the_o truth_n which_o belong_v to_o that_o great_a divine_a power_n i_o know_v not_o but_o leave_v it_o for_o other_o to_o judge_n after_o this_o when_o i_o understand_v that_o this_o be_v take_v root_n among_o some_o of_o the_o chief_a of_o they_o i_o be_v resolve_v that_o wherever_o i_o find_v they_o hold_v these_o tenant_n or_o the_o like_a to_o it_o i_o will_v use_v my_o best_a endeavour_n to_o over-turn_a if_o possible_a i_o can_v lest_o in_o time_n it_o may_v grow_v and_o so_o bring_v they_o into_o arantism_n this_o i_o resolve_v in_o myself_o and_o in_o part_n put_v it_o forward_o for_o meet_v with_o some_o that_o be_v already_o infect_v with_o it_o by_o such_o argument_n as_o i_o bring_v against_o it_o be_v something_o convince_v that_o there_o be_v spirit_n and_o that_o man_n shall_v have_v a_o be_v after_o this_o life_n then_o these_o thing_n put_v i_o to_o a_o stand_n whether_o i_o shall_v come_v among_o they_o or_o not_o seeing_z they_o we●e_v ●alling_v from_o the_o scripture_n and_o from_o truth_n itself_o for_o this_o will_v lead_v into_o all_o error_n but_o then_o again_o i_o think_v that_o it_o may_v be_v possible_a that_o i_o may_v over-turn_a this_o grand_a error_n and_o by_o that_o mean_n may_v do_v much_o good_a but_o there_o be_v many_o of_o the_o chief_a of_o they_o which_o hold_v the_o same_o and_o when_o i_o will_v discourse_v with_o they_o than_o i_o must_v submit_v to_o they_o and_o also_o must_v repent_v for_o
