A60506	The Quakers spiritual court proclaim'd Being an exact narrative of two several tryals had before that new-high-court of justice, at the Peele in St. John's Street; together with the names of the judges that sate in judgment, and of the parties concern'd in the said tryals: also sundry errors and corruptions, in principle and practice among the Quakers, which were never till now made known to the world. Also a direction to attain to be a Quaker, and profit by it. All which, with many new matters and things of remark among those men, are faithfully declared and testified. By Nathaniel Smith student in physick, who was himself a Quaker, and conversant among them for the space of about XIV. years.

for_o geo._n fox_n do_v hold_v the_o same_o and_o geo._n say_v that_o those_o that_o do_v believe_v any_o other_o way_n be_v of_o the_o old_a opinion_n but_o this_o must_v be_v keep_v secret_a lest_o

most_o miserable_a but_o let_v i_o say_v what_o i_o can_v i_o can_v not_o persuade_v he_o from_o it_o because_o geo._n fox_n hold_v the_o same_o which_o i_o find_v too_o true_a by_o discourse_v with_o he_o a●er_o this_o i_o discourse_v with_o george_n fox_n about_o the_o beast_n of_o the_o field_n and_o creep_a thing_n he_o do_v affirm_v that_o they_o have_v reason_n as_o well_o as_o man_n and_o that_o all_o the_o difference_n betwixt_o man_n and_o they_o be_v only_o that_o man_n be_v fall_v from_o his_o first_o estate_n and_o that_o the_o beast_n be_v not_o that_o man_n be_v worse_a than_o the_o beast_n i_o ask_v he_o what_o difference_n there_o be_v betwixt_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o man_n and_o of_o a_o beast_n he_o say_v that_o god_n breathe_v into_o man_n the_o breath_n of_o life_n and_o so_o he_o do_v into_o all_o creature_n and_o that_o all_o the_o virtue_n in_o all_o thing_n be_v of_o the_o light_n and_o when_o they_o be_v at_o a_o end_n they_o do_v return_v to_o god_n again_o for_o he_o look_v upon_o god_n not_o as_o be_v a_o spirit_n but_o a_o great_a light_n as_o the_o light_n of_o the_o day_n and_o the_o night_n as_o the_o devil_n and_o that_o these_o be_v two_o great_a being_n of_o themselves_o and_o be_v without_o any_o cause_n as_o the_o day_n have_v for_o the_o sun_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o light_n and_o its_o absence_n the_o cause_n of_o the_o night_n but_o this_o he_o do_v not_o understand_v i_o wish_v he_o may_v understand_v that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n which_o be_v the_o first_o move_v cause_n of_o that_o divine_a light_n and_o also_o that_o there_o be_v angel_n or_o devil_n all_o which_o he_o and_o other_o that_o believe_v not_o the_o same_o may_v come_v to_o know_v the_o truth_n of_o it_o too_o soon_o for_o if_o there_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o what_o he_o believe_v then_o what_o need_v man_n learn_v any_o thing_n and_o certain_o if_o this_o be_v true_a as_o he_o say_v than_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v true_a that_o that_o be_v a_o new_a light_n which_o he_o have_v for_o it_o be_v not_o like_o that_o which_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n have_v for_o they_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v angel_n which_o be_v

lest_o in_o time_n it_o may_v grow_v and_o so_o bring_v they_o into_o arantism_n this_o i_o resolve_v in_o myself_o and_o in_o part_n put_v it_o forward_o for_o meet_v with_o some_o that_o be_v
