a_o short_a relation_n or_o testimony_n of_o the_o work_n of_o the_o light_n of_o christ_n in_o i_o from_o my_o childhood_n by_o one_o who_o be_v now_o a_o witness_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n who_o the_o world_n can_v receive_v which_o do_v convince_v of_o sin_n of_o righteousness_n and_o of_o judgement_n and_o bring_v all_o thing_n to_o remembrance_n and_o show_v i_o thing_n to_o come_v glory_n to_o the_o lord_n for_o ever_o w_n b_o come_v see_v a_o man_n which_o tell_v i_o all_o thing_n that_o ever_o i_o do_v be_v not_o this_o the_o christ_n joh_n 4_o 29_o in_o the_o eternal_a light_n and_o life_n of_o god_n wherewith_o stand_v all_o mankind_n be_v light_v do_v i_o now_o stand_v and_o rejoice_v over_o the_o world_n and_o all_o its_o glory_n and_o enmity_n over_o the_o beast_n and_o false_a prophet_n with_o in_o and_o without_o have_v receive_v power_n from_o the_o father_n of_o life_n in_o the_o way_n of_o his_o judgement_n after_o which_o my_o soul_n have_v long_o breathe_v and_o thirst_v even_o from_o a_o child_n though_o then_o i_o know_v not_o what_o my_o soul_n pant_v for_o but_o now_o know_v the_o mystery_n of_o god_n everlasting_a kingdom_n be_v reveal_v to_o the_o babe_n that_o fear_v he_o but_o to_o other_o its_o parable_n when_o i_o be_v about_o 10_o year_n old_a i_o do_v remember_v that_o sometime_o i_o desire_v to_o go_v and_o sit_v alone_o quiet_a in_o some_o desert_n place_n where_o i_o may_v bemoan_v myself_o and_o weep_v in_o secret_a even_o until_o my_o heart_n be_v break_v not_o know_v wherefore_o and_o do_v begin_v to_o pray_v in_o fear_n to_o god_n with_o tear_n though_o i_o know_v not_o who_o or_o where_o he_o be_v but_o have_v little_a to_o speak_v only_o some_o thing_n cry_v in_o i_o and_o breathe_v confident_o believe_v that_o god_n hear_v i_o where_o ever_o he_o be_v and_o will_v pity_v i_o and_o save_v i_o at_o which_o thanks_n do_v arise_v unto_o he_o not_o know_v it_o be_v a_o seed_n in_o i_o which_o be_v and_o be_v belove_v of_o god_n contrary_a to_o the_o course_n of_o this_o world_n to_o which_o the_o blessing_n and_o promise_n be_v that_o do_v arise_v in_o the_o quiet_a of_o my_o mind_n to_o break_v down_o that_o which_o the_o serpent_n and_o my_o own_o will_n have_v wrought_v in_o my_o heart_n contrary_a to_o god_n that_o thereby_o i_o may_v enjoy_v peace_n in_o the_o everlasting_a covenant_n of_o light_n for_o at_o any_o time_n when_o i_o have_v do_v or_o speak_v that_o which_o be_v contrary_a to_o god_n i_o be_v soon_o check_v for_o it_o judge_v and_o condemn_v and_o put_v in_o fear_n by_o his_o witness_n in_o my_o conscience_n which_o behold_v all_o my_o way_n and_o wo●ds_n though_o never_o so_o secret_a and_o be_v the_o same_o that_o job_n speak_v of_o which_o set_v a_o print_n upon_o his_o heel_n and_o mark_v his_o step_n job_n 13.27_o in_o which_o light_n i_o can_v see_v all_o that_o ever_o i_o have_v do_v and_o do_v remember_v the_o first_o oath_n that_o ever_o i_o swear_v be_v provoke_v by_o another_o lad_n and_o that_o i_o be_v smite_v with_o tremble_a scarceable_a to_o stand_v on_o my_o foot_n by_o the_o witness_n of_o god_n in_o my_o conscience_n which_o i_o know_v not_o then_o what_o it_o be_v but_o can_v have_v flee_v any_o way_n from_o it_o be_v put_v in_o such_o horrible_a fear_n and_o condemn_v by_o it_o when_o i_o have_v do_v any_o evil_n so_o there_o be_v no_o place_n at_o last_o where_o the_o worker_n of_o iniquity_n may_v hide_v himself_o from_o the_o dreadful_a presence_n of_o god_n as_o david_n say_v so_o about_o 15_o year_n old_a i_o go_v among_o the_o soldier_n be_v the_o time_n of_o war_n not_o hee_v the_o true_a guide_n the_o light_n and_o spirit_n of_o god_n which_o strive_v often_o with_o i_o to_o lead_v i_o in_o meekness_n and_o fear_n out_o of_o all_o strife_n which_o come_v from_o the_o lust_n that_o war_n against_o the_o soul_n i_o then_o be_v entertain_v and_o become_v one_o among_o they_o both_o in_o garrison_n and_o army_n where_o for_o a_o season_n i_o be_v keep_v and_o preserve_v out_o of_o much_o wickedness_n by_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n in_o i_o though_o i_o know_v not_o then_o where_o he_o be_v nor_o long_o after_o yet_o by_o his_o secret_a hand_n of_o power_n unexpected_a and_o undeserved_a be_v i_o preserve_v when_o many_o be_v slay_v on_o my_o right_a hand_n and_o on_o my_o left_a hand_n glory_n and_o praise_n to_o his_o power_n for_o ever_o and_o ever_o but_o about_o 17_o year_n old_a i_o be_v under_o the_o command_n of_o he_o call_v major_a general_n massey_n where_o i_o find_v many_o wicked_a and_o ungodly_a man_n and_o some_o that_o have_v turn_v from_o goring_n army_n among_o they_o through_o which_o company_n the_o honest_a principle_n in_o i_o be_v betray_v and_o even_o murder_v and_o i_o begin_v to_o be_v harden_v from_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n for_o i_o be_v but_o a_o youth_n and_o of_o a_o bashful_a countenance_n natural_o and_o be_v soon_o check_v for_o any_o evil_n and_o feel_v the_o condemnation_n for_o it_o quick_o but_o now_o i_o can_v swear_v and_o vapour_n among_o they_o and_o drink_v till_o i_o be_v sometime_o drink_v and_o grow_v in_o it_o until_o i_o even_o take_v delight_n in_o swear_v and_o drunkenness_n yet_o oft_o time_n when_o i_o be_v go_v from_o my_o company_n alone_o and_o quiet_a fear_v and_o dread_n from_o the_o witness_n of_o god_n in_o i_o will_v seize_v upon_o i_o in_o great_a and_o horrible_a terror_n and_o in_o the_o night_n in_o dream_n be_v i_o often_o fearful_o scare_v and_o torment_v with_o fearful_a sight_n and_o vision_n of_o hell_n and_o devil_n death_n and_o damnation_n which_o indeed_o in_o that_o state_n be_v my_o just_a portion_n and_o so_o in_o the_o cool_a of_o the_o day_n i_o hear_v the_o voice_n of_o god_n and_o be_v afraid_a like_a adam_n in_o the_o transgression_n and_o though_o i_o will_v have_v hide_v my_o sin_n like_o he_o yet_o the_o lord_n do_v search_v it_o out_o and_o now_o i_o know_v god_n speak_v unto_o man_n once_o yea_o twice_o yet_o man_n perceive_v it_o not_o in_o a_o dream_n in_o a_o vision_n of_o the_o night_n when_o deep_a sleep_n fall_v upon_o man_n in_o slumbering_n upon_o the_o bed_n that_o he_o may_v withdraw_v man_n from_o his_o purpose_n and_o hide_v pride_n from_o he_o job_n 33_o 14_o and_o in_o this_o company_n i_o continue_v near_o 2_o year_n until_o all_o be_v disband_v about_o which_o time_n i_o be_v so_o smite_v by_o god_n witness_n the_o light_n in_o my_o conscience_n that_o i_o begin_v to_o leave_v of_o my_o swear_n and_o lewdness_n and_o my_o profane_a compapany_n become_v even_o loathsome_a and_o burdensome_a unto_o i_o and_o i_o never_o swoar_v a_o oath_n from_o that_o time_n to_o this_o day_n which_o be_v about_o 10_o year_n ago_o so_o at_o length_n i_o become_v a_o little_a zealous_a to_o hear_v the_o priest_n and_o begin_v to_o look_v into_o the_o scripture_n to_o get_v they_o to_o talk_v of_o as_o many_o profane_a one_o do_v now_o to_o make_v a_o cover_n and_o then_o think_v i_o must_v be_v guide_v by_o the_o priest_n who_o have_v the_o learning_n and_o the_o tongue_n which_o they_o call_v the_o original_n not_o know_v then_o that_o their_o original_n begin_v at_o babel_n where_o god_n confound_v the_o language_n and_o the_o people_n before_o be_v of_o one_o language_n in_o the_o begin_n which_o be_v the_o original_a so_o their_o original_n be_v from_o babel_n which_o be_v confusion_n where_o they_o still_o be_v and_o all_o their_o follower_n who_o will_v partake_v of_o their_o plague_n if_o they_o come_v not_o forth_o to_o the_o light_n which_o be_v the_o original_n before_o babel_n or_o the_o priest_n or_o latin_a greek_a and_o hebrew_n be_v which_o pilate_n set_v over_o he_o that_o

the_o scripture_n can_v be_v understand_v without_o it_o not_o consider_v that_o they_o who_o have_v latin_n greek_a and_o hebrew_n crucify_v the_o son_n of_o god_n who_o be_v in_o the_o begin_n
