A38960 Strange and wonderful visions being something concerning a child that lay fourteen days and nights in a trance, and spoke not a word for nine weeks together, and when she came to her speech, she spake wonderful things : as also, of a man in Germany, under the like circumstance, but exprest more fully, what he had seen of the joys of heaven, and the torments of hell.

if_o i_o have_v be_v take_v up_o with_o my_o body_n and_o carry_v much_o swift_a than_o a_o arrow_n out_o of_o a_o bow_n till_o i_o come_v before_o the_o gate_n of_o hell_n where_o i_o can_v

it_o be_v so_o intolerable_a here_o i_o hear_v many_o ghastly_a &_o terrible_a voice_n crying_z mountain_n fall_v upon_o we_o hill_n cover_v we_o that_o we_o be_v not_o place_v before_o the_o face_n of_o god_n woe_n o_o woe_n to_o we_o damn_n to_o all_o eternity_n and_o after_o a_o while_o i_o find_v myself_o surround_v with_o many_o thousand_o devil_n who_o tempt_v i_o to_o despair_v but_o i_o

proceed_v and_o indeed_o this_o be_v such_o a_o gift_n when_o the_o holy_a ghost_n carry_v i_o in_o the_o golden_a chariot_n christ_n out_o of_o the_o hellish_a darkness_n into_o the_o splendour_n of_o the_o divine_a glory_n for_o christ_n alone_o be_v the_o way_n the_o truth_n and_o the_o life_n neither_o can_v any_o one_o come_v to_o the_o father_n of_o glory_n but_o by_o he_o and_o when_o

because_o the_o lord_n will_v no_o long_o endure_v that_o hypocrisy_n and_o show_v of_o holiness_n which_o be_v so_o common_a in_o the_o world_n because_o it_o be_v determine_v in_o the_o council_n of_o the_o holy_a trinity_n that_o no_o man_n shall_v see_v christ_n face_n to_o face_n to_o all_o eternity_n but_o he_o who_o have_v behold_v here_o in_o this_o time_n in_o faith_n and_o in_o

how_o it_o be_v with_o he_o after_o he_o come_v into_o the_o body_n again_o the_o lord_n be_v please_v to_o ratify_v and_o confirm_v the_o revelation_n he_o have_v give_v to_o he_o after_o his_o return_n to_o life_n again_o by_o these_o follow_a miracle_n the_o ●●rst_a be_v that_o immediate_o upon_o his_o return_n to_o life_n he_o find_v himself_o in_o more_o perfect_a health_n and_o vigour_n then_o ever_o he_o have_v enjoy_v before_o and_o that_o without_o the_o use_n of_o any_o medicine_n or_o any_o human_a help_n whatsoever_o it_o be_v observe_v that_o as_o his_o hear_v be_v the_o last_o sense_n he_o lose_v so_o it_o be_v the_o first_o sense_n he_o recover_v upon_o his_o return_n to_o the_o body_n for_o he_o hear_v the_o voice_n of_o those_o that_o be_v in_o the_o room_n before_o he_o and_o the_o use_n of_o his_o other_o sense_n 2._o another_o wonder_n be_v that_o the_o light_n which_o have_v be_v communicate_v to_o his_o soul_n whilst_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n continue_v with_o he_o after_o his_o return_n to_o life_n and_o give_v he_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o mystery_n contain_v in_o the_o scripture_n though_o he_o have_v never_o read_v they_o 3._o another_o miraculous_a thing_n observe_v be_v that_o he_o can_v and_o do_v discourse_n whole_a lay_n and_o night_n together_o without_o either_o exhaust_v the_o treasure_n of_o his_o mind_n or_o the_o strength_n of_o his_o body_n in_o which_o thing_n he_o challenge_v those_o minister_n that_o slander_v he_o to_o do_v the_o like_a 4._o moreover_o his_o life_n and_o health_n be_v preserve_v for_o many_o week_n together_o without_o any_o outward_a bodily_a meat_n or_o drink_n he_o also_o experience_v after_o he_o begin_v to_o eat_v that_o the_o most_o exquilit_fw-la dainty_n of_o this_o world_n can_v not_o overcome_v the_o relish_n of_o those_o inconceiveable_a sweet_n which_o he_o have_v taste_v in_o the_o other_o world_n and_o which_o ever_o after_o continue_v uppermost_a with_o he_o 5._o another_o wonder_n be_v that_o he_o never_o sleep_v for_o many_o week_n together_o and_o when_o his_o stepmother_n after_o much_o ado_n have_v persuade_v he_o to_o eat_v something_o in_o hope_n that_o it_o may_v procure_v sleep_n to_o he_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o his_o watchfulness_n continue_v with_o he_o nine_o month_n together_o 6._o the_o last_o wonder_n be_v that_o for_o one_o and_o forty_o night_n after_o his_o return_n to_o the_o body_n he_o continue_v to_o hear_v the_o music_n of_o angel_n as_o he_o have_v hear_v it_o in_o the_o other_o world_n and_o himself_o be_v wont_a to_o sing_v with_o they_o whole_a night_n together_o during_o this_o time_n of_o his_o hear_v the_o angelical_a melody_n it_o happen_v that_o a_o certain_a woman_n have_v continue_v with_o he_o one_o night_n till_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o company_n be_v go_v and_o hear_v he_o say_v ever_o and_o anon_o do_v you_o hear_v how_o sweet_o the_o angel_n sing_v she_o become_v thereby_o inflame_v with_o a_o strong_a desire_n to_o partake_v of_o that_o celestial_a harmony_n whereupon_o he_o bid_v she_o lay_v her_o ear_n to_o his_o ear_n which_o she_o have_v no_o soon_o do_v but_o she_o hear_v it_o likewise_o and_o in_o a_o strange_a transport_v of_o joy_n break_v forth_o into_o the_o high_a praise_n of_o god_n some_o time_n after_o his_o return_n to_o life_n he_o have_v the_o follow_a vision_n of_o the_o new_a heaven_n and_o earth_n which_o he_o express_v as_o follow_v hans_n englbrecht_n vision_n of_o the_o new_a heaven_n and_o earth_n be_v in_o a_o extacy_n i_o see_v myself_o place_v on_o a_o transparent_a earth_n the_o heaven_n that_o surround_v be_v as_o bright_a as_o the_o sun_n and_o in_o the_o same_o i_o behold_v a_o sun_n infinite_o bright_a and_o more_o glorious_a than_o that_o
