B09558	A looking-glass for George Fox the Quaker, and other Quakers; wherein they may see themselves to be right devils. In answer to George Fox his book, called, Something in answer to Lodowick Muggletons book, which he calls The Quakers neck broken. Wherein is set forth the ignorance and blindness of the Quakers doctrine of Christ within them; and that they cannot, nor doth not know the true meaning of the Scriptures, neither have they the gift of interpretation of Scripture. As will appear in those several heads set down in the next page following. / Written by Lodowick Muggleton ...	Muggleton, Lodowick, 1609-1698.	1667 (1667)	Wing M3046; ESTC R10137	83,636	106

himself_o do_v interpret_v this_o scripture_n to_o the_o eunuch_n or_o do_v it_o belong_v to_o a_o mortal_a man_n i_o think_v you_o will_v not_o be_v so_o gross_o ignorant_a to_o say_v that_o christ_n himself_o go_v into_o the_o eunuch_n chariot_n and_o interpret_v those_o scripture_n to_o he_o sure_o if_o the_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n have_v belong_v only_o unto_o christ_n and_o not_o unto_o man_n as_o fox_n do_v assert_v than_o christ_n must_v have_v come_v from_o heaven_n and_o have_v go_v into_o the_o chariot_n in_o philip_n stead_n because_o philip_n be_v a_o man_n and_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n do_v not_o belong_v to_o man_n as_o fox_n the_o quaker_n say_v may_v not_o any_o man_n that_o have_v but_o the_o light_n of_o sense_n and_o reason_n in_o his_o understanding_n see_v the_o gross_a darkness_n of_o these_o quaker_n which_o pretend_v to_o be_v in_o the_o clear_a light_n of_o all_o the_o seven_o church_n but_o to_o my_o knowledge_n the_o dark_a of_o all_o in_o point_n of_o doctrine_n and_o as_o for_o that_o say_n of_o scripture_n we_o shall_v be_v all_o teach_v of_o god_n it_o be_v not_o mean_v that_o god_n will_v teach_v every_o particular_a man_n and_o woman_n himself_o do_v you_o fox_n believe_v so_o why_o then_o do_v you_o prattle_v to_o the_o people_n when_o you_o meet_v as_o if_o you_o will_v interpret_v the_o meaning_n of_o scripture_n and_o teach_v the_o people_n the_o knowledge_n of_o christ_n for_o you_o be_v but_o a_o man_n why_o do_v not_o you_o let_v christ_n teach_v the_o people_n himself_o see_v you_o will_v have_v all_o teach_v of_o god_n and_o allow_v no_o man_n to_o interpret_v scripture_n nor_o teach_v the_o people_n for_o if_o you_o say_v christ_n do_v interpret_v scripture_n and_o not_o muggleton_n because_o muggleton_n be_v a_o man_n and_o the_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n you_o say_v belong_v to_o christ_n and_o not_o to_o muggleton_n for_o muggleton_n be_v but_o a_o man_n so_o quaker_n be_v all_o teach_v of_o god_n and_o not_o by_o man_n i_o marvel_v why_o there_o be_v so_o many_o men-teacher_n among_o the_o quaker_n see_v teach_v knowledge_n of_o heavenly_a thing_n and_o the_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n belong_v to_o god_n and_o christ_n and_o not_o to_o man_n if_o i_o be_v of_o your_o faith_n i_o will_v give_v over_o teach_v and_o talk_v of_o the_o scripture_n and_o leave_v it_o to_o god_n and_o christ_n to_o who_o it_o do_v and_o it_o will_v be_v well_o for_o you_o speaker_n of_o the_o quaker_n if_o you_o have_v do_v so_o before_o you_o take_v upon_o you_o to_o preach_v christ_n within_o you_o you_o have_v undertake_v to_o teach_v that_o which_o you_o say_v god_n will_v do_v and_o to_o interpret_v scripture_n which_o you_o say_v do_v belong_v unto_o christ_n but_o i_o see_v all_o those_o people_n that_o will_v be_v teach_v of_o god_n and_o have_v the_o scripture_n interpret_v unto_o they_o by_o christ_n himself_o and_o will_v not_o receive_v the_o interpretation_n from_o man_n i_o say_v those_o people_n be_v more_o ignorant_a and_o dark_a in_o their_o mind_n than_o those_o that_o be_v teach_v by_o man_n and_o i_o be_o sure_a the_o quaker_n people_n will_v have_v know_v more_o truth_n if_o they_o have_v be_v teach_v by_o man_n that_o have_v a_o commission_n from_o god_n as_o reeve_n and_o muggleton_n have_v than_o they_o do_v by_o all_o that_o god_n ever_o teach_v they_o in_o their_o life_n and_o the_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n we_o have_v give_v if_o understand_v will_v have_v inform_v their_o judgement_n more_o than_o all_o the_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n that_o christ_n ever_o do_v interpret_v unto_o the_o quaker_n people_n since_o the_o name_n of_o quaker_n be_v put_v upon_o they_o yet_o we_o be_v but_o mortal_a man_n and_o must_v die_v but_o to_o clear_v the_o scruple_n that_o may_v arise_v in_o man_n mind_n because_o i_o speak_v thus_o i_o shall_v show_v in_o a_o few_o word_n how_o man_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v teach_v of_o god_n and_o how_o the_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n may_v be_v say_v to_o belong_v unto_o christ_n first_o when_o god_n choose_v any_o one_o man_n or_o more_o to_o be_v his_o choose_a prophet_n messenger_n or_o minister_n god_n do_v furnish_v such_o with_o wisdom_n and_o understanding_n and_o revelation_n to_o declare_v the_o mind_n of_o god_n to_o the_o people_n what_o god_n will_v have_v the_o people_n do_v and_o look_v how_o many_o people_n or_o who_o ever_o do_v believe_v this_o messenger_n send_v of_o god_n they_o may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v

spirit_n have_v our_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n may_v be_v say_v to_o belong_v unto_o christ_n and_o that_o it_o be_v the_o true_a interpretation_n of_o christ_n himself_o because_o we_o have_v our_o commission_n from_o he_o to_o teach_v the_o people_n and_o to_o interpret_v scripture_n to_o as_o many_o as_o believe_v we_o to_o their_o great_a peace_n and_o satisfaction_n of_o their_o

to_o be_v forgive_v and_o to_o loose_v the_o sin_n of_o those_o that_o do_v true_o believe_v their_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n and_o thus_o they_o do_v open_v the_o book_n of_o conscience_n in_o the_o

for_o all_o man_n have_v not_o say_v paul_n know_v that_o those_o man_n that_o have_v faith_n dare_v not_o persecute_v man_n for_o conscience_n though_o he_o have_v reason_n so_o to_o do_v much_o

this_o i_o myself_o know_v by_o experience_n to_o be_v true_a for_o i_o have_v fall_v sometime_o into_o the_o hand_n of_o unreasonable_a man_n for_o i_o have_v be_v pull_v out_o of_o the_o house_n

they_o consult_v to_o lay_v in_o wait_n in_o all_o the_o alley_n to_o catch_v i_o as_o i_o come_v out_o that_o they_o may_v do_v i_o some_o further_a mischief_n and_o no_o body_n know_v who_o do_v it_o they_o think_v to_o break_v my_o bone_n if_o not_o kill_v i_o but_o they_o be_v somewhat_o prevent_v for_o we_o pass_v through_o a_o man_n garden_n a_o private_a way_n so_o that_o the_o layer_n

of_o paul_n word_n for_o it_o have_v be_v always_o my_o desire_n ever_o since_o to_o be_v deliver_v from_o the_o rude_a multitude_n who_o do_v not_o go_v by_o the_o law_n of_o reason_n but_o do_v

according_a to_o thy_o own_o say_n chap._n xxxiv_o answer_n to_o this_o i_o do_v confess_v that_o those_o magistrate_n that_o persecute_v i_o in_o derbyshire_n and_o do_v imprison_v i_o in_o derby_n

their_o reason_n will_v have_v lead_v they_o to_o have_v punish_v i_o with_o a_o great_a corporal_n punishment_n than_o imprisonment_n if_o the_o law_n can_v have_v do_v it_o nay_o because_o they_o be_v reasonable_a man_n they_o can_v not_o go_v beyond_o their_o own_o law_n for_o their_o malice_n will_v have_v reach_v unto_o death_n have_v the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n reach_v unto_o it_o and_o that_o will_v have_v please_v you_o quaker_n very_o well_o for_o i_o know_v some_o at_o that_o time_n be_v sorry_a i_o escape_v so_o well_o and_o so_o soon_o out_o of_o prison_n and_o i_o find_v by_o the_o writing_n of_o richard_n farnsworth_n and_o you_o also_o that_o you_o be_v sorry_a in_o your_o heart_n that_o i_o escape_v without_o any_o further_a punishment_n as_o whip_v and_o the_o like_a and_o this_o i_o say_v further_o have_v reason_n the_o devil_n act_v in_o the_o magistrate_n and_o the_o priest_n so_o far_o in_o punishment_n upon_o i_o as_o will_v have_v satisfy_v the_o desire_n of_o you_o quaker_n and_o their_o own_o malice_n yet_o it_o have_v be_v but_o reason_n the_o devil_n still_o and_o it_o will_v have_v be_v but_o the_o malice_n of_o the_o devil_n execute_v and_o the_o desire_n of_o the_o devil_n satisfy_v so_o that_o i_o do_v justify_v that_o my_o persecutor_n be_v reasonable_a man_n and_o do_v nothing_o unto_o i_o but_o what_o reason_n the_o devil_n lead_v they_o unto_o and_o i_o do_v expect_v no_o other_o favour_n from_o reasonable_a man_n than_o what_o their_o law_n will_v bear_v they_o out_o in_o but_o this_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o that_o when_o reasonable_a man_n do_v judge_v right_o between_o man_n and_o man_n in_o thing_n temporal_a this_o be_v high_o esteem_v of_o by_o i_o and_o warrantable_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n but_o for_o reasonable_a man_n to_o meddle_v with_o the_o conscience_n of_o man_n that_o break_v no_o temporal_a law_n this_o be_v altogether_o condemn_v by_o i_o and_o of_o god_n also_o but_o farnsworth_n and_o fox_n the_o quaker_n revile_v against_o i_o because_o i_o flee_v away_o from_o the_o devil_n malice_n indeed_o the_o first_o time_n i_o be_v in_o derbyshire_n i_o do_v go_v to_o backwel_n but_o i_o

second_o time_n also_o but_o i_o have_v open_v this_o more_o large_a in_o ●he_n neck_n of_o the_o quaker_n break_v and_o as_o for_o those_o magistrate_n devil_n that_o persecute_v i_o i_o know_v it_o be_v reason_n the_o devil_n in_o they_o also_o i_o know_v they_o be_v urge_v on_o by_o the_o priest_n of_o the_o parish_n for_o the_o priest_n do_v ride_v upon_o the_o mayor_n spirit_n he_o be_v but_o low_a in_o reason_n and_o ignorant_a of_o the_o law_n of_o reason_n therefore_o it_o be_v that_o i_o pass_v the_o sentence_n of_o eternal_a damnation_n upon_o none_o of_o my_o enemy_n in_o that_o

all_o one_o in_o that_o but_o you_o out_o of_o a_o voluntary_a will_n will_v worship_v and_o sacrifice_v yourselves_o in_o meeting_n contrary_a to_o the_o law_n make_v by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o

not_o why_o shall_v you_o suffer_v so_o much_o for_o a_o lie_n i_o know_v you_o will_v take_v i_o for_o your_o enemy_n to_o speak_v thus_o yet_o this_o i_o say_v i_o always_o love_v the_o persecute_a

they_o suffer_v for_o a_o mere_a lie_n as_o all_o you_o quaker_n do_v for_o there_o be_v none_o of_o you_o do_v suffer_v for_o truth_n yet_o i_o say_v whoever_o do_v persecute_v you_o for_o

they_o damn_v to_o eternity_n for_o that_o which_o know_v the_o true_a god_n and_o the_o true_a worship_n will_v never_o persecute_v any_o though_o we_o know_v their_o worship_n to_o be_v false_a but_o man_n that_o be_v false_a worshipper_n themselves_o will_v persecute_v both_o the_o false_a worshipper_n and_o the_o true_a this_o i_o do_v know_v by_o experience_n in_o that_o man_n have_v
