October the 1st. 1677.
The Mount of Elijah.
UPON this I did much strive to thwart my Sense, which was in great mutiny against this Gospel transmu∣tation. And as my Faith did get up, so Reasons Club did beat me down; so pas∣sing some hours in great controversie here-about in my self. After my natu∣ral repose, I saw my self, with some others, standing as on a Hill, where no visible fence was, but the loftiness of the place. Which the Inhabitants that were in the Plain below, observing us there to walk, were in great indignation, and summon∣ed us for to come down, to share in what was in common. Which not yield∣ing to, they provided Instruments of War, as Arrows and Guns to shoot at us, which passed over us, and beside us, so that no harm befell us. For we withstood them all in great confidence of that fortitude, which those lower Inhabitants could see nothing thereof. And the shout of the Voice went forth, The Spirit of Elijah will be seen again on the Mountain of Faith.
