A47127	The benefit, advantage and glory of silent meetings both as it was found at the beginning, or first breaking forth of this clear manifestation of truth, and continues so to be found by all the faithful and upright in heart at this day / writ for the stirring up and encouraging of those more especially who are lately convinced unto the love of them, and diligent improving them unto those ends and uses for which they serve by George Keith.

the_o practice_n of_o a_o holy_a life_n and_o conversation_n do_v most_o natural_o proceed_v the_o speak_n of_o or_o concern_v the_o truth_n and_o this_o be_v the_o order_n of_o christ_n who_o say_v
