O how happy would it be if Men would take but half that pains care and diligence in self-denial and in the innocent simple ways of God and his Law in Nature for the procuring and obtaining the Noble Treasures both of Time and Eternity how knowing seeing hearing tasting and feeling would Men be in the Divine Mysteries to the praise of the Lord and Eternal Comfort of themselves 475. Be not offended or think the worse of right hand way because it is very uneven narrow and but little Company and those that are but poor and mean most or all of them Footmen for the Apostles themselves was forced to leave their Horses and travel on foot after a little entrance into this way 476. Some of the Wise Men when first entred into this Divine Path or Right Hand way have kept their Horses and Coats but such as continued them long was either forced to leave them and go on foot or else turn into the Left Hand way 477. For all the Men and Women that are Travellers in this innocent Path or Way their Cloaths are mean plain simple and of their Natural Colour their Meats and Drinks very simple such as are easily procured 478. In this way there are no Inns nor Ale-Houses but a few poor Cottages their Beds are clean Straw and the most currantest Money that goes amongst those poor People is self-denial and content and their Watch-word is Let all Flesh be silent 479. There are not many Trades amongst them that travel in this way for they need them not because a few things will sustain their wants 480. Most of these Men have each of them two Gardens which they spend their whole time to Manure and Dress one is Internal and the other External the Herbs and Fruits that grows in the Internal do by their blessed Juices and most fragrant Scents replenish and nourish the Soul and the Herbs Fruits and Seeds of the External Garden do not only imploy the Body in that pleasant Labour of dressing and manuring of its Fruits but it also supports it with Food that affords both dry and moist nourishment to the highest degree of Innocency in this World therefore those that enter into this way needs but a little Land and less Money and though every Man must have two Gardens yet he needs buy but one for one is his Eternal Inheritance which ought in an especial manner be looked after and Dressed or else it will be quickly over-run with bitter Herbs and sower harsh Fruit. 481. If thou keepest thy Internal Garden free and clear of those harsh bitter Weeds which are very apt to overspead the good Herbs then it will afford most blessed Fruits which will be Cordials unto the Soul on a Dying Bed and raise the Soul to Eternal Life 482. Let God be thy Teacher and look not outward nor lissen after other Teachers but learn and know the inspoken word of the Lord or the Divine Principle in thy own Soul who is the true Preacher of Life 483. Let that Scripture be fulfilled where the Prophet saith The time shall come when every Man shall be taught of the Lord in the center of their Hearts 484. Learn to know thy Teacher in thy self and then thou wilt need no Houses of Brick Stone Timber or outward Temples to meet for Gods Worship but every Man shall withdraw himself from the noise of Men and worship the Lord alone in the Center of their Souls 485. Above all things learn to know the power and vertue of lowness and silence from Words for when Man ceaseth from speaking then the Lord ariseth and teacheth the Soul the ways of Wisdom 486. The true Worship of the Lord is innocent and simple in the ways of Nature which is his Handmaid 487. Consider and look with an inward Eye into the wonderful variety and great Beauty of the Vegitations of the Earth how pleasant they are to thy inward and outward Eyes and how they all praise their Lord in meekness and silence and bear Fruit to the Creators praise and thy Comfort they grudge not nor grumble when thou usest them for thy necessity 488. Learn by all to know and praise the one only Fountain whence all proceeds and have their Being 489. Withdraw thy self from the many and entertain profound silence and the Lord will arise in the Center of thy Soul and shew thee the Truth which is not seen but felt on the opening of the Intellectual World 490. Know that all Ceremonies Forms Modes and Mediums in Religion the Lord have suffered by reason of weakness and want of true sight in Divine and Human Mysteries 491. As the Saviour of the World faith Not in this Mountain or the other place but the true Worshipper● are those that worships the Lord in the inward part of the Heart in loneness and si●ence 492. Remember and let it be one principal point of thy unfeigned Religion to desire no more of the things belonging to the Body than is needful and natural for whatsoever is more beclouds the Intellectual powers of the Souls spirit for the Essences of all our Meats and Drinks departs not from us but becomes Essential as is mentioned before 493. The true Religion is for a Man to know God in the Center of his Heart and to obey the Voice of Wisdom and regulate himself in all inward and outward things 494. The Life of a true Christian is to depart from all Intemperance superfluity uncleanness in Meats Drinks Cloathing Imployments and Communication and to withdraw into loneness and Silence and to will as God his Guide wills 495. And remember that he that lives as he ought needs but a few things and those easie to be procured a small Cottage a little Garden a Spade Corn and Water white Garments a little Wood a Straw-Bed which are the most useful and necessary and will support Nature to the highest degree and a little labour and less care will procure them 496. Straw-Hats will serve instead of Beavors and Castors 497. Wooden Shooes instead of Leather for their Journeys are but small 498. White Linnen and Woollen instead of rich Colours for there is no need of rich Garments to cover the outside when the inside is arrayed with Virtue 499. The Fire of Wood supplies the want of Candles made of the Fat of the Beasts no Violence enters into their Tents 500. A little Corn and a few Herbs do bountifully supply Nature with both drie and moist nourishment to full satisfaction there is no need of the trading with Butchers 501. A few Vessels serves their Drinks is brued to their Hands by the preserver of the World A piece of Bread and a spoonful of Oatmeal or Flower mixed with a pint of Spring Water makes a Breakfast or a good Supper 502. Milk as it comes from the Cow is highly esteemed and counted great Food being eaten with good Bread there is but little need
the spirit then also the Oyl does with the true spirit become either suffocated or evaporated for this very cause all Herbage that has lost its spirit does neither smell well nor weigh heavy for that fragrant smell proceeds from the Essential spirits and the weight and ponderousness is from the Oyl the very same is to be understood in all Grains as Wheat Barly Rye and the like the true colour also do arise and proceed both from the Essential spirit and Oyly quality 2. Therefore all Vegitative Foods especially such as are made of Corn as Wheat Rye Barly or the like are far more agreeable and harmonial than Flesh and Fish easier of digestion affording a finer livelier and more brisker spirit and less phlegm or gross Juices which the Natural heat and sharp pleasant Minstruum or Runnet of the Stomach can easily digest and send down into the passages and so free the Joynts and other parts of the Body from Inconveniencies This is manifest by External Operations for how quickly will Bread dissolve being put into Water nay the whole dry Corn it self being infused grows soft and tender in a little time but how long may one infuse Flesh Fish Cheese or Butter before they dissolve or grow more tender Vegetative Foods do also keep the Body cool and pleasant preventing Fumes and Vapours from flying into the Head because such Foods do not generate them as all fat Victuals does for their crude obstructive phlegmatick Juices that lodge in the Stomach and Vessels that cause Fumes and Vapours as also Fevers for the principal cause that Fevers are so frequent is that surplusage of matter that proceeds from Intemperance in Foods both in quantity and quality for when People over-charge Nature then the digestive faculty cannot make a perfect separation but the gross Juices does load stop and fur the passages whence is generated thick Blood and impure Spirits so that Nature becomes stagnated which does immediately stir up and awaken the Centerial Fires in all parts of the Body and makes the whole burn with an unnatural heat uneasie and burthensom which is that we call a Fever 4. Therefore in a special manner after full Meals of Flesh or Fish or other fat Foods Men ought to be cautious of drinking too plentifully of strong spirituous Drinks a cup of good Water to most Constitutions has had far better success to carry off a full Meal of such Foods than strong Liquors for good Water is endued with a mild friendly quality of a dissolving dissipating digestive nature and therefore help● Concoction better than Spirituous Drinks as may be gathered from most or all External Operations for Water especially River Water or Spring Water such as will Wash Boil and Brew well will dissolve and dissipate hard Coagulated Bodies sooner than strong Drink or Spirits as Water will dissolve Sugar sooner than Beer Wine or Brandy for in the last especially it will lie a great while before it dissolves 5. Vegetative Foods affords not only the greatest and most vigorous spirits in the Bodies of either Men or Beasts but more fine and innocent free from the seeds of violence passion and inclinations to Beastiality 6. For the forementioned Reasons those that live wholly on Vegitations can drink more strong spirituous Drinks and with far less prejudice than those that live on Flesh and Fish for they will not so soon fume up into their Heads nor so much heat their Bodies finding their Stomachs free from those Crudities and flatulent Juices wherewith the others are pestered and consequently the digestive Property more powerful the Drink is presently dispatched and the grosser parts evaporated by the Uretors without any let or hindrance but the case is otherwise in the Stomachs of such as eat Flesh and fat Foods the truth of this may further appear by Men that do drink much strong Drink after full Meals such will be made drunk before and also sick before those that take the like quantity whose Stomachs are rather empty than full and the latter are in far less danger of Surfets it being seldom known that such that are both great Eaters and great Drinkers too do live long but on the contrary great Drinkers that eat but small quantities of Food do often live to old Age or if a great Eater chance to out-live Youth they seldom but have the Gout from all which it follows that Animal Foods which are for the most part fat are nothing so Excellent or Commendable as Vegitations which none can understand or know but Doctor Experience talk will not convince any Man no not Men of the greatest Reasons Obj. Some will be apt to object and say that it is nonsence to discourse after this manner viz. to affirm that fat Animal Foods are not so good as poor lean Vegitations and Victuals made thereof for we see will they say that fat things are desired by all or most and if Flesh be not fat it is counted worth little because fat is counted to be of a brave healing nourishing Nature and Operation and therefore our Nurses endeavour to make sucking Children to take it even against their Stomachs Answ. To which I answer that I am not ignorant that this is indeed the vulgar Opinion but for that very reason to be suspected nay if you will hearken to the Voice of Wisdom utterly to be expelled for Doctor Experience and that most excellent Phylosopher Right Reason will tell you that it is a grand mistake to think that Vegitations and Foods made thereof though they have not gross greasy qualities as Animal Food● have are therefore to be counted poor lean and of but little Nourishment for are we not every day taught the contrary though not in Man yet in all other Creatures Will not a little cold Grass and dry Hay and especially Corn make several sorts of Beasts fat and that too very firm and substantial And what is your brave Butter and Cheese but the digested Juice of Grass and Vegitations all dried Grains as Wheat Barly Rye and many other sorts are endued with an excellent Spirit and pure Oyl much finer and freer from grossness and phlegm than Flesh or the product of Flesh the Oyl of Grains being as it were vollatile like a Spirit so that when it comes into the Stomach it is brisk and lively most easily separated and digested as being turned into an Unctious substance from whence the fatness of these Creatures that live on Corn does proceed which Unctious quality does also contain a bright lofty exhillerating spirit that makes all such Creatures so strong lively and brisk that they have no need of the fat either of Flesh or Fish The very same would happen to Man if he could content himself with Vegitative Foods and good Drinks made thereof 7. Such as live on Vegitative Foods are hardly ever subject to drought though they can when they eat drink with more pleasure to the Stomach though not so much to the Pallate as
Nature 47. Pear-pies being full ripe makes a fine gentle friendly Food of easie Concoction 48.

There is also a brave sort of Food made of Wheat and Milk called Furmity some make it plain and others add Fruit to it the plain is the best but they are both very good affording a firm substantial nourishment of a mild friendly operation the frequent use of this is a grand enemy to the generation of sower windy Humours 55. Boiled Wheat buttered is a noble Dish and with this alone a Man may make a better and more satisfactory Meal than with Princely variety it affords a sweet friendly and most agreeable nourishment easie of concoction and generates fine thin Blood 56. Take good white Pease boil them when near done add green Sage and Onions cut small then season it with Salt and Butter but in the Winter when green Sage is not good then take that which is dried according to our Directions in The Way to Health long Life and Happiness which is to be preferred before green This is a brave strong substantial Pottage very grateful to the Pallate and agreeable to the Stomach 57. Directions to make several sorts of Herb Pottage viz. Take what quantity you please of good Water make it boiling hot then have your Herb or Herbs ready washed not cut as the usual custom is put them into your boiling hot Water let your Vessel continue on the Fire till your Liquor begins to boil then take it off the Fire and let your Herbs remain in your boiling Liquor 2 or 3 minutes after which take your Herbs out then brew your hot Infusion with a little small ground Oatmeal which you must have ready tempered with a spoonful or two of cold Water adding Salt and Butter to it which ought to be brewed with your Oatmeal This Pottage or Gruel you may eat with Bread or without as you find most agreeable to your Stomach All Herb Pottages made after this method are far more commendable for all good purposes than that made the common and usual way for the hot Liquor in a moments time draws forth all the fine spirituous mild friendly opening cleansing Vertues and leaves the more gross raw or crude quality behind even as the first hot Liquor put on Malt does attract the best and most spiritual Vertues and strength of the Malt for in most or all Infusions the fine spirituous qualities separate and do first give themselves forth into any proper Minstruum or Liquor 58.
