A91924	The righteousnes of God to man, wherein he was created; with a discovery of the fall, by the strength and subtilty of the serpent: and of the recovery of man, by the seed of the woman, which bruises the serpents head. Also, a declaration against the beast and his followers, who act by his power; and a warning to the people not to joyn with the beast, nor to uphold the harlot, least you be taken with the beast and the false prophet, and cast into the lake together alive, and there be none to deliver you. A few words to O. C. and to the officiers and souldiers of the army in general. With, a true declaration how I lived before I knew the truth, and how I came to know the truth, and overcame deceit. Given forth for the simples sake, that they may learn righteousness; ... / By a sufferer for the righteous seed sake, in the common goal of Edmonds Bury in Suffolk, who is called George Rofe.	Rofe, George, d. 1664.	1656 (1656)	Wing R1788; Thomason E885_3; ESTC R200681	15,447	19

my_o people_n by_o my_o own_o power_n and_o thou_o shall_v know_v that_o i_o have_v speak_v to_o thou_o when_o i_o visit_v for_o those_o suffering_n of_o my_o people_n than_o thou_o shall_v not_o be_v

i_o rest_v where_o man_n can_v make_v i_o afraid_a here_o follow_v a_o true_a declaration_n how_o i_o live_v before_o i_o know_v the_o truth_n how_o i_o come_v to_o know_v the_o truth_n and_o overcome_v deceit_n for_o many_o year_n together_o in_o my_o youth_n i_o live_v after_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o heathen_a in_o pride_n and_o vanity_n and_o sport_v and_o game_n and_o propanesse_n and_o much_o wantonness_n as_o the_o common_a profane_a one_o in_o the_o world_n now_o do_v whereby_o the_o just_a the_o light_n of_o christ_n in_o i_o be_v slay_v and_o the_o covenant_n of_o god_n

the_o light_n of_o christ_n in_o i_o do_v arise_v and_o judge_n and_o codemne_v i_o for_o my_o wickedness_n and_o oftentimes_o i_o be_v smote_n by_o the_o witness_n of_o god_n so_o that_o terror_n come_v upon_o i_o that_o i_o have_v not_o know_v what_o to_o do_v but_o have_v be_v smote_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o lord_n into_o many_o fear_n of_o what_o shall_v become_v of_o i_o hereafter_o and_o have_v often_o weep_v exceed_o in_o secret_a and_o in_o my_o bed_n so_o that_o i_o have_v wet_v much_o clothes_n with_o tear_n but_o when_o i_o be_v among_o my_o kindred_n after_o the_o flesh_n or_o among_o other_o heathenish_a company_n the_o beast_n act_v so_o strong_o and_o lead_v i_o so_o much_o that_o i_o be_v ashamed_a to_o tell_v any_o what_o i_o ail_v but_o rather_o submit_v to_o the_o power_n of_o the_o beast_n to_o join_v with_o the_o heathen_a in_o wickedness_n than_o to_o tell_v they_o that_o i_o have_v be_v in_o torment_n for_o my_o wickedness_n and_o thus_o i_o go_v on_o in_o rebellion_n against_o the_o light_n of_o my_o conscience_n from_o time_n to_o time_n though_o i_o know_v by_o it_o i_o do_v not_o that_o which_o be_v right_a and_o be_v condemn_v in_o my_o

and_o one_o time_n i_o be_v smote_n with_o terror_n down_o to_o the_o earth_n so_o that_o i_o cry_v out_o exceed_o for_o a_o long_a time_n together_o and_o lay_v with_o my_o face_n towards_o the_o

like_a wickedness_n for_o which_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n have_v often_o be_v upon_o i_o and_o i_o can_v not_o see_v any_o way_n how_o to_o escape_v the_o wickedness_n which_o the_o devil_n daily_o lead_v i_o into_o but_o give_v myself_o to_o read_v much_o in_o the_o scripture_n and_o yet_o the_o power_n of_o the_o wicked_a one_o prevail_v against_o i_o so_o that_o i_o receive_v no_o strength_n against_o he_o by_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o scripture_n though_o the_o scripture_n show_v i_o in_o part_n what_o i_o shall_v do_v yet_o the_o power_n against_o sin_n be_v not_o there_o to_o be_v find_v but_o sin_n get_v the_o upper_a hand_n and_o rule_v over_o i_o and_o therein_o i_o be_v lead_v captive_a and_o make_v a_o prey_n upon_o by_o the_o devil_n who_o deceive_v i_o through_o subtlety_n and_o when_o i_o have_v read_v and_o study_v what_o i_o can_v in_o my_o own_o will_n for_o many_o year_n together_o i_o can_v not_o find_v out_o a_o way_n to_o know_v god_n nor_o
