which day the strong shall be as towe and the maker of it as a spark And from the Lord I am to warn you that you judge righteous Judgment that then so you be not found some of those which shall imbrue your hands in the blood of the Saints and so cast the righteous Law of God behind your backs and so hate to be reformed for now the Lord is arising in his sons and in his daughters a faithfull witnesse for himself Crying even in the Ears of the Almighty It is time for thee to arise Lord for men have made void thy Law That so you be not found bearing the Sword in vain and so punishing the Innocent and let the guilty go free Therefore from the Lord you are warned to mind that of God in your Consciences which will bring you to see Judgment running down as a stream and equity as a mighty

of Christ in thy conscience loving it and abiding in it it will lead thee up unto God hating it it will be thy condemnation The Law of God is just and is according to that in my Conscience which I own which is a Law against evil doers as man-slayers thieves and adulterers and drunkards and such like In the name of the Lord and by his word I do pronounce woes and plagues from the Lord against all such as scoffe at the Light of Christ and the Language of Christ as thou didst This is the day of thy visitation whether thou wilt hear or forbear Thus was I moved of the Lord to write unto thee who
