THE DIVELL IN KENT OR His strange Delusions AT SANDWITCH LONDON Printed in the Yeer MDCXLVII Sandwitch May 13 1647. The Examination of John Mowlin of Sandwitch Taylor taken before Henry Foster Mator William Wilson Andrew Goffrich and others his Majesties Justices there THe said Examinant saith that yesterday was five weeks he being at work on his table there fell from above to according his own phrase a power upon him and that he being wel and strong in his joynts was cast into a great depth of mourning in so much that tears did abundantly gush from him as he sewed by his wife there appeared a Vision before him of which he was ready to demand this question What are thou but had not strength to bring it forth And the first words that were pronounced by the apparition were Thy joy shall be such as no man shall take from thee upon which words this Examinant had much comfort and then the Vision which he saw being in the shape of a man in a sad coloured coat without a seam with a powerfull voice said I am he that have holes in my hands and feet And the next voice that came from him said I am α and ω the beginning and the ending the first and the last And the next voice was Behold I am even at the very door which was all that was spoken at that time And this Examinant was all the night following admiring at what he had seen and heard and the next morning this Scripture came to his mind Through the tender mercies of our God whereby the day spring from on high hath visited us And the next day following this Examinant having seen and heard as before was questioning with himself whether it should be declared to any or not and about nine of the clock it was told this Examinant it was given him to declare to those baptized persons with whom he was a member And the next Lords day this Examinant was appointed by the Vision to be at one Goody Foreman's house at three of the clock in the afternoon which he did accordingly perform where there were present about sixteen persons viz. Thomas _____ William Wood Anne Palmer Goody Higgins Goody Boykins Master Bateman Goody Godfrey of high street Goody Nokes John Smith Henry Stringer and others whom he knew not and in the presence of all the parties aforesaid hee did declare what before he had expressed And some of them were great opposites to what this Examinant had spoken but who they were hee doth not well remember But upon their opposition this Scripture the night following came into his mind The plowers have made long furrows upon my back applying this to the opposers aforesaid And the next night following a word was given him I have loved thee see that the appearance of thy love be seen then said this Examinant he was constrained to love God because he had loved him first And a while after the next words were that Those whom God had chosen did do whatsoever he commanded them Then this Examinant questioned with himself what God would have him do and had an inward suggestion to goe to John Foremans house and there it should be told him what he should do And about nine of the clock the last Fast day this Examinant went to Foremans house where the woman lay upon her bed sick and sate down and she asked him if hee had any thing to say unto her and shee said If you have a word to speak speak it To which this Examinant gave her no answer but suddenly after this Examinant asked her how long she had been sick she answered three yeers and three quarters And the next words of this Examinant were to the woman Daughter the same Jesus that appeared to me with holes in his hands and feet make thee every whit whole and then he went away And about 3 of the clock in the afternoon following the woman came to the Examinants house rejoycing but what her expressions were he knoweth not And a while after another voice came to this Examinant and said Behold she prayeth and as Ananias was sent to Paul when he prayed to baptize him so was this Examinant called forth to dip this woman whom God had made every whit whole In the name of the Father Son and holy Ghost and accordingly he did dip her at Beagrams And afterward upon another calling this Examinant did likewise dip one Goody Herwoed to whom before that this Examinant had been sent and hee said to her first that The pride of thy heart is an abomination to the Lord. And the next was Thus saith the Lord the fourth Angell standeth over thee with fire in his viall to consume thee except thou repent And the third was We be to you Hypocrites except you repent you shall perish all which was revealed to this Examinant before he told it her And within lesse then half an hour before this Examinant went away she was smitten and mourned bitterly and so this Examinant departing had heard that she had kept her bed three or four dayes afterward and did scarce speak sometimes three or four hours together and the last Saturday morning saith this Examinant The word was given from above with power Behold she prayeth and so this Examinant went the same morning up into the chamber unto her about six of the clock she lying a bed and the first words he spake to her were Arise sister the same Jesus which smote thee down hath sent me that thou shouldst arise be baptized in the name of the Father Son and holy Ghost and immediately she arose and followed this Examinant to a place called Brewers Bridge where he dipt her though she had been dipt before And he further said that a Voice about ten dayes agoe spake to this Examinant as he lay in his bed and said John Arise and immediately hee arose and went to work and wrought untill 12 of the clock that day and the Voice said Go to the man that was born blind and then the blind man appeared in a Vision and about one of the clock this Examinant went to him and spake to him as he sate at his door Henry Arise and he answered he would and then this Examinant told him he was sent to him that he should receive his sight Henry answered Come let us see what will be done And so he arose and this Examinant bid him lay his hands about his middle and hee said Father thou art in thy throne get hononr and great name and then this Examinant laid his thumbs on his eyes and said Henry open thine eyes and receive thy sight and he opened his eyes but did not see All these words this Examinant spake to him leaving God that sent him as he said to work the effect according to his good pleasure Here followeth the unfolding of the strange delusion of the aforesaid John Mowlin by a Vision appearing to Thomas Lipeat of Sandwitch aforesaid
