there_o be_v none_o in_o the_o world_n at_o this_o day_n but_o myself_o answer_n who_o do_v you_o blind_a quaker_n think_v shall_v be_v the_o judge_n of_o a_o prophet_n that_o have_v a_o commission_n from_o god_n be_v not_o a_o true_a prophet_n the_o law_n giver_n and_o ought_v not_o every_o one_o to_o submit_v unto_o his_o law_n have_v not_o a_o prophet_n a_o prerogative_n power_n as_o a_o king_n have_v do_v not_o a_o true_a prophet_n stand_v in_o the_o king_n of_o heaven_n room_n as_o a_o ambassador_n do_v in_o the_o place_n of_o a_o earthly_a king_n and_o shall_v those_o that_o be_v to_o be_v subject_a to_o the_o law_n of_o the_o king_n go_v to_o try_v whether_o the_o king_n law_n be_v good_a or_o just_a nay_o those_o that_o be_v the_o king_n friend_n ought_v not_o to_o try_v whether_o the_o king_n law_n or_o declaration_n be_v just_a because_o his_o friend_n happiness_n lie_v in_o yield_a obedience_n unto_o it_o and_o if_o his_o friend_n ought_v not_o to_o try_v the_o king_n much_o less_o his_o enemy_n so_o i_o say_v though_o dorothy_n carter_n be_v a_o friend_n to_o the_o prophet_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o it_o lie_v not_o in_o her_o power_n neither_o be_v it_o for_o she_o to_o try_v the_o doctrine_n of_o a_o prophet_n but_o to_o submit_v unto_o the_o doctrine_n and_o power_n of_o a_o prophet_n for_o therein_o lie_v she_o and_o all_o other_o safety_n and_o whereas_o you_o say_v that_o i_o have_v exclude_v dorothy_n carter_n and_o all_o other_o man_n upon_o earth_n from_o salvation_n i_o do_v here_o testify_v that_o she_o be_v one_o of_o the_o bless_a of_o the_o lord_n with_o many_o other_o in_o the_o world_n at_o this_o day_n though_o i_o will_v not_o allow_v dorothy_n carter_n nor_o no_o other_o to_o have_v power_n to_o try_v a_o true_a prophet_n doctrine_n though_o they_o be_v believer_n of_o it_o that_o do_v not_o exclude_v they_o from_o salvation_n but_o give_v they_o the_o more_o assurance_n of_o it_o in_o that_o they_o suffer_v themselves_o to_o be_v try_v by_o a_o prophet_n and_o his_o doctrine_n therefore_o i_o do_v exclude_v d●rothy_n carter_n and_o all_o man_n upon_o earth_n in_o point_n of_o trial_n or_o judgement_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o a_o prophet_n that_o have_v a_o commission_n from_o god_n as_o i_o have_v and_o if_o those_o of_o the_o same_o truth_n with_o a_o prophet_n may_v not_o try_v a_o prophet_n
