My glory saith the Lord will I not give to another What will ye be Lords over Gods Heritage O will ye cause the poor to wander without bread and take away the clothing from the naked and leave him desolate that hath no deliverer in the earth O what are ye doing will ye put out our eyes whom the Lord hath opened and then cause us to grind in your Mill Is this to be eyes to the blind and feet to the lame O consider what ye are doing ye Leaders of the people Why should my people be destroyed for lack of knowledge saith the Lord What shall the Lord alwayes be limited that ye will not suffer him to teach his People O consider consider the Eternal sees you and all your wayes are naked and bare before him whose eternal eye runs through all the dark parts of the Earth and neither the Evil nor the Good is hid from his all-seeing Eye O why will ye plot evil against the Lords Heritage ye little know what a work ye have undertaken the People whom ye are fighting against are blessed of the Lord the dust of Jacob that cannot be numbred are they of and they are of the ten thousands of Israel and the off-spring of Jacobs God which himself hath determined to establish and bring them into a Land a good and a large Land where he will make them a praise to Generations and the Children unborn shall call them the Blessed of the Lord because of Righteousness which is the girdle of their loyns and the savour of their oyntment which is poured forth shall their names be had in everlasting remembrance O pure righteous living Father of Heaven and Earth do with thy People and Children what thou wilt they are thine own only keep them faithfull in thine own life power and dominion preserve them God eternal thy Word of Patience to keep and Testimony to bear against all the false wayes and Worship that is now setting up and establishing by a Law Lord God Almighty arise in the Consciences of thy Enemies and in their inward parts do thou convince them that are making void thy Law thy pure righteous Law in their own Consciences show them they are persecuting thy People and wasting thy Heritage whom thou hast chosen for thy peculiar Treasure O Lord what are we do with thine own what thou pleasest we are thy People and the sheep of thy pasture Thy Name is one and thy People one what wilt thou do for thy great Name Do what is good in thine own eyes only blesse thy People and in thy Arms carry thy Lambs that none may take their Crown from them O Lord God Almighty A Form of Common-Prayer that is the Swearers Prayer the Lyars and the Drunkards Prayer which prayes in the drunken spirit but the Spirit of the Lord is not known by any such to teach them how to pray as they ought Therefore wo to the crown of Pride to the Drunkards of England whose glorious fading beauty is on the head of the fat valleys Wo unto them saith the Lord God that are covered and not with my Spirit that pray and not with my Spirit these are a stink in my nostrils and as a fire that burneth all the day long that dig deep to hide their counsel from the Lord and whose work is in the dark that none should know it Wo unto them that go down into Egypt again for help and whose hope is not in the Lord but in the broken Reed of Pharaohs house which house must be laid waste and desolate without inhabitants and the memorial thereof from generation to generation warred with Now come to the Spirit which is within the Vail the Lord is that Spirit and when ye turn to the Lord the Vail shall be rent and the Covering destroyed and taken away that is on the head of the fat valleys then shall living Waters flow out of Jerusalem in that day and the Spirit poured from on high that shall teach you how to pray as ye ought Then shall ye look upon Him whow ye are now piercing and persecuting piercing by your prayers which are sin whilest in the persecution of the innocent Lambs of Christ ye are found I say then shall ye be in bitterness and mourn as one that mourneth for his first-born that must be destroyed and then it is not your calling the Innocent Plotters and declaring against them as Murderers which will clear you from the just and righteous judgments of the righteous God who hears the sighing of the Prisoners in the Pit and whose ears are open unto their cry The Lord openeth the eyes of the blind the Lord looseth the bands of the prisoners Then shall ye Bishops mourn and ye Priests mourn and all ye Magistrates every one that have a hand in persecuting shall mourn apart when ye look upon Him whom ye have pierced both in your selves and the Lord Children which in his sight are dear and precious and by him compared to the most fine Gold O how are the precious Sons of Sion counted and esteemed by you builders of Babylon who are in Confusion and covered with thick darkness What do ye teach the poor people to pray and call God their Father What do ye teach them to sing Davids Psalms and the Songs of Sion in the Waters of Babylon and Land of Darkness Is not that vain Worship that is taught by the Commandments and Precepts of men Can the dead praise the Lord And have ye not read that the Prayers of the Wicked is Abomination to the Lord Did not Peter bid Simon Magus first Repent and then Pray that the thought of his heart might be forgiven him which was that the Gift of God could be brought and sold for Money And have ye not need to repent of this sin as well as Simon which are selling your Gifts for Money all over the Nation What will ye pray and teach others so to do whilest in the gall of bitterness and bond of iniquity your selves O consider what ye are doing will ye whip persecute and imprison any that pray and preach only as the Spirit of the Lord guides and gives them utterances Are these the weapons which the Apostle Paul did fight and War withal or are they Antichrists weapons and such as the high Priests and those learned Rabbies did use against Christ our Lord and Master which said if this be done in the green ●●ee what will be done in the dry Consider these things ye Bishops and all that would be counted Ministers of Christ what a foundation are ye laying for persecution have ye so soon forgotten your own sufferings that ye are causing them thus to suffer that had no hand at all in yours Consider the words in your own Book of Common-Prayer do ye desire that ye may shew forth the light of a good example for the glory of the Lord and conversion of your enemies Is this the way Christ took and commanded his
