December the 25th. 1677.

This Word visited me, saying, How great is the goodness, that is treasured up for those that love and long for the mighty God, and the everlasting Saviour. Therefore dress and trim your selves every Day for your Bridegroom, who doth take great pleasure to find you all comely, sitting at the deep Manifestation Gate, and there waiting. Oh sweet Jesus, if thou wilt this Gate open, and give us out thy Love from thence, then we will not remove, because of the sweet and pleasant savour that do's issue forth from thee. Oh, come with all pulling force, that as a bright Cloud, we may be of a dissolving Nature, for all Love's impressions from thee, that we our selves may be one with thy Celestial Nature unchangeably.
