of_o they_o that_o be_v in_o that_o day_n be_v go_v to_o rest_n with_o the_o lord_n for_o ever_o and_o after_o they_o have_v receive_v the_o truth_n in_o the_o love_n of_o it_o there_o be_v a_o

notwithstanding_o all_o the_o difference_n they_o stand_v the_o day_n and_o the_o lord_n be_v with_o they_o and_o they_o suffer_v joyful_o the_o spoil_n of_o their_o good_n and_o imprisonment_n and_o some_o lose_v their_o dear_a life_n now_o friend_n after_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o persecution_n be_v over_o there_o be_v a_o rest_n and_o the_o enemy_n take_v some_o advantage_n after_o that_o but_o i_o hope_v that_o be_v make_v up_o again_o but_o now_o friend_n the_o thing_n that_o lie_v chief_o upon_o i_o be_v how_o we_o have_v answer_v the_o lord_n call_v out_o of_o many_o evil_n and_o that_o in_o no_o wise_a we_o may_v go_v back_o to_o egypt_n again_o as_o i_o be_o afraid_a too_o many_o be_v go_v into_o that_o which_o the_o lord_n by_o his_o right_a hand_n bring_v out_o of_o they_o that_o which_o be_v displease_v unto_o he_o and_o now_o i_o do_v desire_n as_o for_o my_o own_o soul_n you_o may_v look_v back_o through_o all_o those_o thing_n and_o see_v the_o lord_n deal_n all_v along_o from_o one_o time_n to_o another_o and_o do_v not_o despise_v the_o day_n of_o small_a thing_n though_o the_o lord_n have_v give_v riches_n and_o make_v up_o your_o loss_n both_o in_o london_n and_o bristol_n especial_o bristol_n i_o mean_v what_o you_o have_v lose_v by_o suffer_v for_o truth_n and_o as_o he_o have_v make_v it_o up_o to_o you_o many_o way_n the_o desire_n of_o my_o soul_n be_v that_o none_o of_o we_o that_o have_v partake_v of_o the_o lovingkindness_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o we_o may_v do_v nothing_o that_o may_v cause_v he_o to_o withdraw_v his_o holy_a spirit_n from_o we_o for_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o we_o shall_v be_v as_o miserable_a as_o any_o people_n whatsoever_o for_o what_o can_v we_o do_v without_o the_o lord_n we_o can_v stand_v of_o ourselves_o because_o all_o our_o fresh_a spring_n be_v in_o he_o and_o therefore_o we_o be_v to_o watch_v and_o pray_v continual_o that_o we_o may_v not_o be_v carry_v away_o by_o the_o great_a enemy_n of_o our_o soul_n or_o turn_v out_o of_o the_o way_n for_o he_o will_v be_v ready_a to_o betray_v the_o simplehearted_n therefore_o i_o do_v desire_n that_o in_o the_o simplicity_n of_o our_o heart_n we_o may_v look_v about_o we_o and_o see_v how_o many_o way_n the_o enemy_n have_v take_v to_o betray_v the_o simplicity_n of_o the_o truth_n since_o the_o break_n forth_o of_o it_o and_o now_o friend_n
