September the 13th. 1677.

In the Night I had a Vision of the Doctor, whom I did see in great concern about building a foursquare Room all of clear Glass: neither Timber nor Stone was in any part to be added thereto. And I viewed it from first to last, till I saw it finished by his own hand. Who with great alarity said to me: Here we will wait in all reservedness, till the Glory of the Son of God appear. But I an∣swered, This will be hardly secure, for we shall be seen through this Glass, and envious Spirits will break in, and so disturb our attending here. No, said the Doctor, we shall here learn the Art of the Divine Magia: whereby we shall keep all Inva∣ders out. Or else that indeed would not be a sufficient Fence for us, in regard found there is none, who are resolved to enter in there with us; but we both will abide there, till others of the same Spirit shall come into us.
