MOreouer / wher-as thou hast seene / [ A] that the Worlde together with y• Man∣hod / werea 1.1 turned into Silence {reversed ;}eauen as the Dead; all these seuen Dayes: That is it / which the Angell in times-passed (and is now in thissame Daye fulfilled) hath sayde vnto Esdras / as a thinge for to comtopasse:b 1.2 The World (saith hee) shall be turned into the olde Si∣lence
/ seuen Dayes: like-as in the first Iudgment.
2. Beholde / These seuen Dayes / are now de∣clared / and passed-thorough ouer the Worlde: and y• Worlde hath ben turned in those-same / into the olde Silence. and not vnderstanded nor know∣en anye-thinge therof: eauen like-as it came-to-passe in the first Iudgment / c 1.3 ouer the former Worlde / which also knew not of Gods Lightes nor of his Woorkes {reversed ;}what Gods purpose was therin; before that the Deluge or Floudde came ouer thesame.
3. Euenso is now also in thissame Daye (ac∣cording to the Woorde of the Angell vnto Esdras) thed 1.4 Most-highest reuealed on the Seate of his Iudgment. In which thissame Daye of Iudg∣ment / of the most-high God / all the Propheaties of God / shall becom fulfilled· the Lordes Dead / rise-vppe 1.5 from the Death and made liuinge· and all Vngodlie / rooted-out from the Earth.
[ B] 4. Howbeit / all This shall rest vnknowen to the last wicked Worlde / which shall perrish tho∣rough the Fyre (eauen-like as also thef 1.6 former wicked World which perrished through the Wa∣ter / vnderstoode not their owne Destruction / nor the Preseruation of the Righteous) or they shall not vnderstande any-thinge therof / g 1.7 nether-yet also they all which remaine lyinge-still in the vn∣godlie Beeing of the last wicked Worlde / h 1.8 before that the foresaide Destruction / i 1.9 and the Condem∣nation with the hellish Fire / fall vpon them / and roote them all out from-of ye Earth / and condemne
them in the Hell, euerlastinglye.
5. MOreouer / in that the Heart and the ve∣ry-inmost Minde of the Godhead / vn∣locked or opened-abrode it-self: and that thou sawest / that it was so full of Grace / Powers of God / k 1.10 and so full of all godlie Goods and Bewti∣fulnes: Thatsame is the Mostholie of the true Tabernacle of God / and the Most-secreatest of his godlie Wysdom. which also no Man / l 1.11 with any Minde of the sinfull Fleash can comprehend· nor see or perceaue with any Eyes of earthlie Vnder∣standinge. For them 1.12 fleashlie Minde / with the earthlye Vnderstandinge of the sinfull Fleash {reversed ;}which is a Fore-skinne before the Heartes of the vncircumcised and vnregenerated Men; couereth his inwarde Sight / and estraungeth him / from the Mostholie of the vncouered heauenlie Cleernes of God.
6. ANd in that God {reversed ;}out of thesame Fulnes [ C] of his Grace / Loue / and Power of Life; declared and reuealedn 1.13 a New Daye / which is so aboundant in Cleernes / and so full of eternall Ioye: Thatsame is theo 1.14 New Life / which God {reversed ;}to an euerlasting Life of all repentant Men; bring∣eth-fourth out of the inmost Heart of his Minde. and is also the Newe Ierusalem, / which now in the last Time descendeth from Heauen / and wher∣in the right Perfection is to be inherited. Which Light / is the Eight Daye / wher-out the Seruice of the Loue {reversed ;}through the holie Spirit of Loue; hath his Ministration. Through whose Appeeringe
ouer the Earth / all the Dead {reversed ;}which are disceassed in the Lordep 1.15 Iesus Christ; do rise-vpp from the Death / and areq 1.16 made liuinge. and all Genera∣tions of Heauen and of Earth / r 1.17 becom iudged {reversed ;}in the Iudgment of God; with Right and Equitie.
7. Beholde / this Eight Daye / is the New Daye / s 1.18 which the Lorde himself reuealeth: in which all the Righteous and Holyones of God / do reioyce them. Wher-of also ther is writen in the Booke of the Psalmes. Yea / it is the New Daye of the Lorde / which will now eauen at the very-last / enlardge itself {reversed ;}with all Fulnes of Life / Grace / and Loue; ouer the vniuersall Worlde / t 1.19 to the Re∣newinge of the Earth with Righteousnes / and to the Saluation of all People that loue the Righte∣ousnes. After the which Daye / v 1.20 ther is not also any Daye of Saluation more for to com / seeing that thesame verelie / is the Perfection· and the Fulfillinge of the Scriptures· as also the very true Righteousnes itself.
[ D] 8. Therfore respect-well now thissame New Daye / that thou maystx 1.21 walke in his Light: For / ouer all those that haue a good regarde vnto the∣same / and that walke {reversed ;}through the Seruice of the Loue; in his Light / ther comethy 1.22 great Ioye / Peace / and Rest / and the euerlastinge Life. All which also / shall bee kept-safe from the horrible Plages / z 1.23 that are cominge ouer the Vngodlie.
9. Thus keepe or retaine-well now all This in thy Heart: and take good-heede vntoa 1.24 this pre∣tious Time. For in thesame ther shall be shewed
vnto Thee HN / the lastb 1.25 Iudgment of God / which is now cominge and passing-thorough ouer the Worlde: Which also is committed vnto Thee {reversed ;}out-of Manye; for to reueale. For God hath chosen Thee therto / for to reueale {reversed ;}out of his Se∣creatne••; all this vnto thee which thou seest and hearest: and that thou shouldest also testifie thesame amonge all People {reversed ;}which loue the Righteousnes; on the Earth· and warne them all concerning the Plages of the Vngodlie / c 1.26 and from the horrible Condemnatiō of the reprobate or damnable Men / whichd 1.27 dispise the Loue of God / To-thende that they mought turne them repentantlie / to the Righ∣teousnes· and the Dispisers haue none occasion / toe 1.28 excuse them of their Condemnation.
10. FOr all thissame that Testimony-of-trueth [ E] declared vnto mee / I reioy••ed mee much / with great Ioye: Chiefliest / for that the Time {reversed ;}cominge-on; did now approch / in the which / God {reversed ;}in his Iudgment;f 1.29 will woorke the Righteousnes on the Earth / and roote-out all Falshod. Yet thought I in my Heart:
11. O my God! In what-sort shall Al-thinge now {reversed ;}I pray thee; be ordered / and thy Iudgment com-to-passe? and wher-through or in what ma∣ner / shall {reversed ;}I beseech thee; the vpright Iudgment becom declared to the Man / that hee mought vn∣derstande thesame? For the Man is becom {reversed ;}in his Memorie or Vnderstandinge; whollie ignorant of thy Trueth / and voide of feelinge of thy Light: andg 1.30 syeth in Silence / as the Dead: and is also
{reversed ;}in all his Searchinge-prouidence; ronne-to-an-ende / in the Knowledge of Good and Euell. For-that-cause also / hee hath vtterlie lost the right Dif∣ference betwixt Sinne and Righteousnes: In such-sort / that hee with his Vnderstandinge / is com intoh 1.31 a darke Minde / eauen as into an heauie Traunce / wherin one knoweth not / i 1.32 how / or what to doo.
