be_v not_o to_o be_v understand_v without_o a_o angelic_a understanding_n the_o great_a thing_n i_o desire_v to_o know_v of_o she_o be_v whether_o mr._n mason_n who_o have_v be_v dead_a some_o week_n

he_o die_v he_o tell_v his_o northamptonshire-friend_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v surprise_v if_o they_o hear_v he_o be_v dead_a but_o though_o he_o may_v think_v himself_o mortal_a three_o or_o four_o day_n before_o he_o die_v yet_o i_o be_o well_o assure_v that_o five_o or_o six_o week_n before_o he_o have_v think_v otherwise_o for_o about_o that_o time_n he_o tell_v his_o most_o

for_o i_o can_v be_v free_a to_o lend_v they_o out_o for_o many_o reason_n and_o have_v deny_v to_o do_v it_o to_o a_o minister_n that_o be_v his_o intimate_a acquaintance_n and_o what_o of_o they_o

but_o pecking-work_n against_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o kingdom_n if_o any_o person_n will_v spread_v the_o doctrine_n in_o course_n as_o it_o be_v deliver_v in_o the_o four_o year_n ministry_n than_o all_o will_v see_v how_o he_o clear_v and_o prove_v all_o thing_n by_o scripture_n which_o he_o preach_v but_o the_o paper_n that_o he_o keep_v by_o he_o be_v but_o part_n of_o the_o doctrine_n and_o the_o midnight-cry_a contain_v the_o three_o part_n which_o he_o often_o preach_v upon_o that_o christ_n will_v have_v a_o davidical_a kingdom_n here_o and_o that_o it_o will_v be_v usher_v in_o by_o a_o dreadful_a tribulation_n and_o that_o this_o will_v be_v do_v in_o a_o short_a time_n he_o also_o often_o declare_v that_o he_o know_v himself_o to_o be_v the_o harbinger_n send_v before_o

the_o book_n to_o he_o that_o be_v to_o be_v seal_v till_o the_o time_n of_o the_o end_n and_o have_v give_v he_o the_o revelation_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o the_o testimony_n of_o jesus_n which_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n he_o also_o declare_v to_o we_o about_o three_o week_n before_o he_o sicken_v that_o now_o he_o have_v full_o and_o whole_o do_v the_o work_n the_o lord_n have_v send_v he_o upon_o as_o to_o the_o message_n before_o christ_n face_n and_o that_o he_o have_v but_o very_o few_o word_n more_o to_o say_v to_o we_o for_o he_o shall_v soon_o be_v part_v from_o we_o and_o be_v with_o christ_n he_o tell_v we_o also_o that_o christ_n have_v take_v the_o matter_n into_o his_o own_o hand_n and_o that_o he_o will_v visible_o perform_v what_o he_o have_v send_v he_o to_o declare_v he_o say_v that_o god_n have_v do_v the_o part_n of_o a_o god_n to_o this_o nation_n in_o give_v they_o warning_n and_o they_o shall_v know_v that_o they_o be_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o

yet_o god_n will_v vindicate_v this_o cause_n and_o that_o soon_o too_o two_o day_n after_o he_o sicken_v he_o begin_v to_o tell_v we_o how_o god_n have_v pour_v in_o his_o love_a kindness_n into_o his_o soul_n in_o a_o extraordinary_a manner_n and_o so_o it_o continue_v all_o his_o sickness_n and_o the_o last_o word_n he_o speak_v to_o we_o be_v that_o he_o be_v full_a of_o the_o
