will_n that_o man_n shall_v believe_v righteous_o of_o i_o even_o as_o i_o have_v reveal_v myself_o in_o the_o scripture_n when_o not_o draw_v aside_o with_o one_o own_o reason_n but_o open_v with_o

xxxiii_o after_o some_o day_n there_o come_v to_o this_o b._n maid_n a_o principal_a officer_n who_o deliver_v to_o her_o a_o seal_v letter_n which_o he_o say_v come_v from_o a_o person_n of_o

lay_v hold_n on_o i_o with_o a_o pure_a heart_n and_o with_o a_o strong_a faith_n the_o same_o shall_v attain_v to_o all_o that_o remain_v and_o shall_v even_o in_o all_o thing_n be_v able_a to_o find_v it_o yea_o amen_o i_o the_o lord_n even_o the_o lord_n who_o speak_v with_o my_o voice_n as_o the_o voice_n of_o thunder_n have_v witness_v this_o and_o speak_v this_o and_o there_o be_v none_o that_o can_v withstand_v i_o for_o i_o be_o rise_v up_o and_o do_v many_o sign_n and_o wonder_n and_o bless_v be_v that_o person_n who_o love_v i_o and_o keep_v my_o commandment_n for_o at_o the_o

according_a as_o i_o do_v in_o thy_o conscience_n witness_n to_o thou_o in_o the_o truth_n and_o be_v godlily-minded_n and_o so_o shall_v thou_o with_o i_o be_v well_o lead_v and_o shall_v dwell_v with_o i_o in_o the_o light_n and_o not_o be_v cast_v out_o into_o the_o darkness_n this_o be_v enough_o for_o thou_o and_o i_o say_v no_o more_o a_o little_a while_n after_o the_o aforesaid_a officer_n send_v a_o letter_n seal_v in_o his_o own_o name_n which_o the_o bless_a maid_n receive_v think_v that_o he_o have_v inquire_v something_o of_o the_o lord_n from_o a_o remorse_n of_o conscience_n and_o this_o i_o think_v too_o for_o as_o much_o as_o he_o have_v frequent_o say_v to_o i_o that_o he_o wish_v to_o discourse_v with_o i_o about_o god_n and_o in_o what_o manner_n one_o might_n advance_v in_o piety_n and_o hence_o i_o can_v not_o but_o conclude_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v give_v he_o a_o gracious_a answer_n but_o we_o be_v strike_v with_o a_o mighty_a astonishment_n when_o we_o read_v the_o lord_n fierce_a answer_n which_o behold_v i_o the_o lord_n have_v in_o abhorrence_n the_o blood-guilty_a and_o the_o false_a and_o he_o that_o be_v wicked_a shall_v not_o stand_v before_o i_o therefore_o take_v away_o the_o evil_a from_o before_o my_o eye_n that_o this_o my_o word_n may_v not_o become_v to_o thou_o a_o terrible_a judgement_n in_o the_o day_n of_o my_o wrath_n for_o i_o be_o a_o consume_a fire_n the_o elect_a virgin_n make_v a_o difficulty_n of_o send_v he_o present_o this_o dreadful_a testimony_n whereupon_o she_o send_v he_o back_o his_o letter_n seal_v without_o have_v open_v it_o and_o write_v to_o he_o at_o the_o same_o time_n that_o she_o have_v receive_v a_o very_a harsh_a answer_n which_o startle_v she_o the_o which_o if_o he_o desire_v to_o see_v he_o may_v send_v for_o which_o he_o do_v the_o next_o day_n after_o some_o few_o day_n he_o come_v to_o visit_v we_o and_o speak_v about_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o letter_n he_o tell_v we_o what_o have_v be_v in_o it_o which_o be_v such_o a_o question_n as_o at_o which_o he_o may_v for_o ever_o blush_v but_o he_o confess_v that_o he_o have_v not_o well_o do_v in_o it_o however_o he_o endeavour_v to_o excuse_v himself_o with_o this_o that_o in_o the_o first_o letter_n among_o other_o religion_n question_n he_o have_v demand_v something_o concern_v the_o word_n sacrament_n which_o have_v not_o be_v exact_o answer_v to_o he_o do_v not_o think_v it_o be_v the_o lord_n who_o speak_v by_o she_o and_o this_o he_o say_v be_v the_o reason_n why_o he_o have_v put_v such_o sort_n of_o question_n into_o the_o second_o letter_n which_o notwithstanding_o he_o wish_v he_o have_v never_o do_v he_o also_o confess_v that_o the_o first_o letter_n be_v write_v by_o himself_o and_o not_o by_o a_o person_n of_o quality_n as_o he_o have_v before_o pretend_v as_o we_o then_o read_v over_o again_o the_o first_o answer_n we_o see_v clear_o that_o it_o agree_v exact_o to_o he_o contain_v a_o express_a mention_n of_o deceit_n and_o falsehood_n as_o also_o that_o one_o ought_v not_o to_o resist_v the_o lord_n to_o who_o all_o thing_n be_v discover_v and_o from_o who_o nothing_o be_v hide_v last_o that_o he_o shall_v take_v care_n not_o to_o be_v mistake_v so_o to_o mislead_v himself_o nor_o to_o do_v any_o thing_n which_o may_v not_o succeed_v well_o with_o he_o or_o lead_v he_o into_o evil._n so_o that_o in_o the_o first_o the_o lord_n will_v answer_v he_o not_o to_o his_o question_n but_o to_o his_o heart_n and_o in_o the_o last_o he_o have_v give_v he_o very_o sharp_a menace_a word_n that_o so_o he_o may_v not_o persist_v to_o kick_v against_o the_o prickle_n god_n grant_v that_o these_o testimony_n may_v pierce_v into_o his_o heart_n that_o he_o may_v be_v convert_v and_o do_v true_a repentance_n xxxiv_o upon_o this_o encounter_n the_o b._n maid_n become_v somewhat_o more_o reserve_v and_o resolve_v not_o to_o receive_v for_o the_o future_a any_o letter_n that_o shall_v be_v seal_v from_o any_o person_n whatsoever_o since_o she_o must_v do_v it_o in_o doubt_n and_o can_v not_o know_v whether_o it_o be_v write_v from_o a_o heart_n that_o
