Postscript.

HAving come much short of what was spoken and declared at large by this Faithful man, concerning the things of God, & his Kingdom, as they were plenti∣fully opened unto him, upon his dying bed; and because we could not omit to men∣tion what we certainly retained in Me∣mory, we have here collected a short Ac∣count of the the Heads of those things he declared of, with some Words expresly, as he spoke them.

As First, He spake much concerning The living Bread that came down from Heaven, the Heavenly Manna, the Souls Page  20 Food, Saying, Buy it without Money, and without Price, eat and live for ever, drink and live for ever, Exhorting to know this Bread In our own Houses, &c.

If you know the Truth (said he) the Truth shall set you free; Truth, Truth, Truth, Oh the precious Truth, it is all, and more then all.

And at another time said, Oh! thy Pure Everlasting Light, which is so much despi∣sed amongst men; thy precious light by which I see thy Glory.

And at another time, two Friends stan∣ding by his Bed side, he turned his Face to them and said, I know you both, pray for me. And some time after another Friend R. T. came in, and asking him how he did? His Answer was, I have had a great Skirmish, but through Mercy I have overcome; and said also, Avoid Satan; I defie thee, get thee behind me Satan. I have got the Victory: And then in Exhortation said, Resist the Devil and he will flee from you, that subtil Serpent, that goes about like a Roaring Lion, seeking whom he may devour. And spake much that the Devil would Page  21 have Christ To fall down and worship him, and how the Devil carried Christ up to shew him the Glory of the World, saying, All this will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.

And again exhorted Friends saying, Press forward to the End of your Dayes, my dear Brethren and Sisters that are here pre∣sent with me, I know ye not (that is, after the outward man) but be ye all Faithful.

He also spake very much concerning David (as well he might) being made a large Partaker of David's Experiences of the Goodness and Mercies of the Lord un∣to his Soul, as David did. Oh David, said he, A man after God's own heart; and how David praised the Lord, and to shew the Goodness of God to David, he spake ve∣ry much.

And often times in great Admiration of the Truth, and its Glorious Appearance, he uttered these and the like Words, Oh the Glory of England, the Appearance of Truth England's Glory. And that The Lord hath begun a Good Work in England, and he will carry it on notwithstanding all Op∣position.

Page  22 He exhorted much to Faithfulness, and to obey the Truth, and walk in the Truth, The Truth of God, said he, is precious. He did often express an Indignation against I∣dolatry, False Prophets, and Hirelings, and said, The False Prophet, and Hireling Priest the Lord will cut down, and he will teach his People himself. And he declà∣red much concerning Israel of old, and of their being brought into the good Land; the promised Land; And after God had delivered Israel, said he, Then Israel sang Praises unto the Lord; out of Egypts Bon∣dage they were delivered, and brought into the Good Land, the same it is this day, where none can make afraid, which he often said; and spake how the Lord brought all his through Trials, Reproaches, and Troubles, saying, It is no matter what Trials, Re∣proaches, Troubles and Afflictions we meet withal here; the Lord will bring and carry us through them all. And likewise about the New-man, Not the Old-man, said he, but the New-man Christ Jesus that is revea∣led, doth bring back again out of the Fall.

Thomas Farnbury (the man of the house Page  23 where he died) who not counted one of the People called Quakers, yet a friendly and honest man, gave this Testimony con∣cerning him, That it was the Divine Nature and Power of God that spake in him, more then at other times.

This is the Substance of what we kept in Memory, being but a small part of those sweet and living Expressions given forth by this patient Sufferer, and Servant of the Lord, who by the Power of the Lord (after looked upon as a dead, or dying man) was raised up to declare of the won∣derous works of God in a most sweet and heavenly manner, who began to speak, a little after the twelfth hour of the Night, & spake till about the the third Hour, and afterwards continued (making sweet Me∣lody in his Heart to God) till between the ninth and tenth Hour in the Morning, and then departed out of this earthly House, like a patient Lamb: 2 Cor. 5. 1. For we know, that if our earthly House of this Tabernacle were disolved, we have a Building of God, an House not made with Hands, Eternal in the Heavens.
