a_o testimony_n and_o warn_v give_v forth_o in_o the_o love_n of_o truth_n and_o be_v for_o the_o governor_n magistrate_n &_o people_n inhabit_v on_o the_o island_n of_o barbadoes_n which_o be_v a_o call_v to_o turn_v to_o the_o lord_n o_o you_o magistrate_n and_o inhahitant_n of_o the_o island_n of_o barbadoes_n o_o consider_v how_o often_o the_o god_n of_o heaven_n have_v visit_v you_o send_v his_o faithful_a servant_n and_o messenger_n among_o you_o to_o call_v to_o repentance_n and_o amendment_n of_o life_n and_o to_o warn_v you_o that_o so_o you_o may_v have_v escape_v the_o many_o judgement_n which_o his_o hand_n have_v bring_v upon_o you_o divers_a time_n both_o by_o fire_n often_o and_o pestilence_n and_o storm_n all_o which_o happen_v to_o your_o great_a damage_n in_o outward_a thing_n also_o many_o have_v be_v take_v away_o by_o sudden_a death_n as_o you_o well_o know_v to_o the_o sorrow_n of_o some_o and_o amazement_n for_o the_o present_a though_o indeed_o very_o soon_o forget_v again_o as_o many_o have_v be_v eye-witness_n thereof_o for_o when_o the_o last_o great_a fire_n be_v in_o town_n i_o be_v in_o one_o house_n near_o adjoin_v where_o be_v many_o of_o the_o chief_a woman_n of_o the_o town_n who_o be_v there_o to_o escape_v the_o danger_n and_o look_v on_o the_o fire_n and_o see_v it_o like_v to_o take_v hold_n on_o their_o house_n great_a terror_n be_v then_o in_o their_o heart_n who_o then_o in_o the_o time_n of_o affliction_n remember_v to_o call_v upon_o god_n where_o i_o hear_v some_o of_o they_o say_v lord_n have_v mercy_n and_o spare_v we_o this_o time_n and_o sure_o we_o will_v repent_v and_o amend_v our_o life_n whereas_o you_o know_v that_o you_o do_v lie_v to_o god_n for_o you_o still_o go_v on_o in_o the_o same_o excess_n after_o and_o unto_o this_o day_n so_o out_o of_o your_o own_o mouth_n you_o will_v be_v condemn_v for_o you_o be_v then_o spare_v alive_a and_o many_o of_o your_o house_n do_v escape_v the_o fire_n and_o now_o you_o be_v afraid_a of_o war_n for_o indeed_o the_o sword_n it_o be_v already_o furbish_a for_o a_o slaughter_n all_o tree_n that_o bring_v not_o forth_o fruit_n to_o god_n must_v be_v cut_v down_o by_o the_o sword_n of_o his_o mouth_n neither_o can_v any_o true_o say_v that_o god_n be_v unrighteous_a in_o his_o deal_n towards_o the_o son_n of_o man_n because_o that_o his_o visitation_n have_v be_v many_o to_o turn_v people_n from_o the_o way_n which_o be_v not_o good_a that_o so_o he_o may_v have_v mercy_n on_o all_o &_o abundant_o pardon_v those_o who_o through_o true_a repentance_n and_o amendment_n of_o life_n do_v hearken_v unto_o his_o reproof_n of_o instruction_n which_o be_v the_o way_n of_o life_n as_o say_v the_o scripture_n so_o now_o consider_v how_o his_o messenger_n have_v be_v slight_v among_o you_o and_o send_v away_o empty_a and_o some_o you_o imprison_v who_o come_v from_o far_o to_o seek_v for_o fruit_n among_o you_o fruit_n of_o mercy_n that_o so_o god_n may_v show_v mercy_n in_o the_o day_n of_o visitation_n which_o sure_o will_v come_v on_o all_o that_o dwell_v on_o the_o earth_n some_o also_o who_o have_v be_v long_a inhabitant_n among_o you_o myself_o and_o another_o woman_n we_o be_v move_v to_o go_v to_o your_o house_n of_o worship_n to_o call_v upon_o you_o to_o repentance_n that_o so_o among_o god_n faithful_a one_o you_o may_v be_v make_v partaker_n of_o like_a precious_a mercy_n in_o this_o day_n of_o lovingkindness_n which_o be_v know_v to_o those_o who_o be_v give_v up_o with_o the_o whole_a mind_n and_o whole_a heart_n to_o follow_v the_o lamb_n whithersoever_o he_o go_v and_o indeed_o in_o the_o shed_n abroad_o of_o god_n love_n in_o our_o heart_n it_o be_v in_o which_o i_o with_o the_o other_o friend_n come_v among_o you_o but_o you_o know_v you_o make_v a_o mock_n at_o it_o o_o therefore_o take_v heed_n that_o god_n who_o be_v just_a in_o all_o his_o way_n and_o righteous_a in_o all_o his_o judgement_n do_v not_o laugh_v at_o your_o calamity_n and_o mock_v when_o your_o fear_n come_v yea_o whenas_o your_o fear_n come_v like_o a_o whirlwind_n that_o none_o can_v stop_v it_o then_o shall_v you_o call_v but_o he_o will_v not_o hear_v and_o cry_v but_o he_o will_v not_o answer_v and_o so_o though_o we_o do_v not_o break_v any_o law_n for_o it_o be_v not_o charge_v against_o we_o at_o your_o court_n yet_o be_v we_o commit_v to_o prison_n and_o be_v hale_v along_o by_o the_o bellman_n of_o the_o town_n who_o at_o first_o handle_v we_o rough_o but_o we_o tell_v he_o we_o shall_v not_o resist_v he_o nor_o seek_v to_o go_v from_o he_o see_v he_o be_v command_v to_o carry_v we_o thus_o have_v god_n servant_n be_v handle_v in_o your_o island_n likewise_o the_o oppression_n of_o god_n people_n who_o be_v dweller_n among_o you_o be_v very_o great_a because_o that_o for_o conscience_n sake_n towards_o god_n they_o can_v send_v horse_n nor_o go_v in_o arm_n their_o good_n be_v take_v from_o they_o almost_o to_o the_o ruin_n of_o some_o family_n outward_o so_o all_o these_o thing_n and_o more_o the_o great_a god_n both_o of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n take_v notice_n of_o and_o sure_o if_o there_o be_v not_o a_o speedy_a course_n take_v for_o to_o ease_v these_o heavy_a burden_n and_o oppression_n of_o his_o people_n who_o be_v indeed_o make_v a_o prey_n upon_o for_o turn_v from_o iniquity_n and_o persecute_v for_o live_v godly_a in_o christ_n jesus_n yea_o sure_o even_o god_n the_o lord_n who_o know_v how_o to_o deliver_v his_o people_n who_o in_o all_o age_n do_v marvellous_o appear_v for_o those_o who_o trust_v in_o he_o who_o be_v now_o ride_v on_o conquer_a and_o to_o conquer_v we_o know_v he_o be_v god_n who_o change_v not_o but_o be_v the_o same_o this_o day_n yesterday_o and_o forever_o with_o who_o there_o be_v no_o variableness_n nor_o shadow_n of_o turn_v i_o say_v he_o will_v not_o turn_v away_o from_o any_o who_o turn_v unto_o he_o and_o put_v their_o whole_a trust_n in_o he_o for_o he_o have_v say_v my_o ear_n be_v not_o heavy_a that_o it_o can_v hear_v neither_o be_v my_o hand_n shorten_v that_o it_o can_v save_v nor_o will_v he_o in_o any_o wise_a cast_v off_o any_o who_o come_v unto_o he_o so_o now_o there_o be_v many_o that_o can_v draw_v near_o unto_o the_o throne_n of_o his_o grace_n and_o can_v come_v unto_o he_o as_o unto_o a_o faithful_a creator_n who_o have_v promise_v that_o the_o rod_n of_o the_o wicked_a shall_v not_o always_o rest_v on_o the_o back_n of_o the_o righteous_a lest_o they_o turn_v to_o folly_n so_o i_o say_v that_o god_n will_v show_v forth_o more_o and_o more_o of_o his_o mercy_n unto_o thousand_o who_o love_v he_o and_o keep_v his_o command_n and_o his_o indignation_n will_v be_v know_v upon_o thousand_o of_o they_o that_o hate_v he_o and_o keep_v not_o his_o command_n for_o if_o any_o say_v they_o love_v god_n and_o keep_v not_o his_o command_n such_o be_v liar_n and_o do_v not_o the_o truth_n so_o these_o be_v his_o command_n thou_o shall_v love_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n with_o all_o thy_o heart_n and_o with_o all_o thy_o mind_n and_o with_o all_o thy_o strength_n and_o thy_o neighbour_n as_o thyself_o so_o to_o fear_n god_n &_o to_o keep_v his_o command_n be_v the_o whole_a duty_n of_o man_n as_o say_v the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n now_o i_o say_v they_o who_o take_v away_o good_n from_o any_o will_v not_o be_v so_o do_v unto_o they_o who_o do_v imprison_v any_o when_o what_o be_v do_v be_v for_o the_o answer_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n towards_o god_n such_o will_v not_o be_v do_v so_o unto_o such_o as_o go_v about_o to_o kill_v with_o the_o sword_n or_o any_o carnal_a weapon_n they_o will_v not_o that_o another_o shall_v do_v so_o to_o they_o but_o christ_n say_v he_o which_o kill_v with_o the_o sword_n shall_v be_v kill_v with_o the_o sword_n so_o all_o his_o follower_n or_o disciple_n must_v not_o take_v up_o any_o carnal_a weapon_n for_o their_o weapon_n be_v spiritual_a and_o mighty_a through_o god_n to_o the_o pull_v down_o of_o the_o spiritual_a wickedness_n they_o must_v take_v his_o yoke_n which_o be_v easy_a and_o his_o burden_n which_o be_v light_n they_o must_v take_v up_o the_o cross_n daily_o which_o be_v the_o power_n of_o god_n unto_o salvation_n unto_o all_o that_o believe_v and_o obey_v the_o truth_n they_o must_v walk_v in_o the_o light_n as_o he_o be_v in_o the_o light_n and_o so_o become_v child_n of_o the_o light_n and_o of_o the_o day_n by_o put_v off_o all_o the_o work_n of_o darkness_n and_o of_o the_o night_n and_o these_o be_v christ_n command_n to_o all_o his_o little_a flock_n for_o who_o
