A voyce. Lo, judgement is the end of Justice in things that are handled uprightly: whereof youfinde the Omnipotencie and 'truth of him that judgeth Omnipotently: Which beholding your Combat)hjth girded himself together,and beboldeth the Lifts, and he judgeth uprightly: For,he hath sworn it-Arm not your selves therefore asweahjings : But provide as mightie and couragious Souldiers, for your ,o»% defence. I am without corruption (faith the Lord) and lean not with the windes ofBasannah.

. A. O Lord, give me leave to request thee, &c. ^

A voyce. But I ant just, and judgement herself. Enter Mt therefore into my holy placer: Nd*

ther \neel down before my sanctuaries ; faying, the Lord hath Chosen us , He liveth, and it is true ,forever . For I have said, It may be undetermined. I will also fee-, whether you be strong- in-

wardly , or privily rotten* For with the world your weakjieffe is great. Whosoever overcomethshall rejoyce. Fut I will be a God in tny Covenant and will hold on my promise : Fight thereforeas it becometb you, and cast off the world. Make flesh fubjeU , and strangle your Adverfaty*

For unto such belongeth the entrance into tny Chambers) and the use of ntj will, as the Horn of myglorie. For it is written, light dwelleth not in darkjtejse : Neither hath darkjtesse comprehendedlight: For darkyiesfe is the Cave of err our, and the reward of sinners. , Hhusfayeth he, whichbeboldeth your sorrows: And it is a fight for many daies, which appeareth neither in the one, nor in 'the other : nor giveth he answer untill the end.

E-HQ- There is one come in like a Ghost, and he taketh all the hangingsaway, which beautified the place like to Curtains- Now all the fides ofthe stone are darkish ,and the Cloud standeth in the very middle thereofiNowthe bands seem brighter then - - because the place issodarkilb,

a O Lord, many daies Combat is assigned us. And forasmuch as Militia est vita hominis fu -p er a err am, we are now m a great uncertainty of our Combat ending.

E. K- There standeth the number of 40- upon a great Labels, and no-thing else. sr*

A. This 40. ( 0 Lord) what betokeneth it, dayes , weeks, or years ? Well: Whatso-ever it be, Blessed be the name of the Highest. Our God, King, and Father,

E- K* Now is one come in very brave, like a Preacher; I take him to beancVilone.

A. Benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini. .

E- K. He faith nothing;Not so much as, Amen.

. Are you so foolish to think the power of God will descend into so base a place >

£. K- The power of God descending, ddeendeth to beautifie the place ;And whatsoever he beautifieth, he doth it mercifully: And so through hismercy hedescendeth among us,that put our trust in his mercies-

.A if true : But , jwto those that are righteous.

A. Christ his coming hath been to save sinners. His conversation was among sinners,"alt, lame, blinde, and diseafe'd. So likewise : Now our frailty , or impurity will not ex-c lude his presence, or the Ministery of his faithfull Angels.

.. What , in this base manner ?

a. Do you miflike the manner ?

.. Can any that hath any drop of wisdom Ukg it ?

A. Are you wife? .

...... Or else l could not seerthy imperfections.

A, Which be they? Accuseme.

i . What greater imperfection, then to imagine much more believe, that the Angel's of God, will j

Who causcth thee to come here ?
