[ 21 ] bringing a great army of French, Spainyards; Romiſh, and a part of every nation about them, to bring on a ſtroke on this land for broken covenants, or ſlighted goſpel, and the abounding ſins of the land, and the blood of thoſe who teſtified to the covenants, for, aith he, I will make the earth full of the blood of my enemies in this land! But I know a great many in this land will join with them, but ſuch ſhall fall with them, ſo as to have neither name nor remembrance in it afterward. But I have reſerved 7000 men that have not bowed the knee to Baal, which ſhall be the eed that ſhall do me ſervice in this land. I will have a glorionsglorious [sic] church in this land, which ſhall be admired of all the earth.

41. April 2. It was ſaid to me, How long ſhall this generation defer to hear my warnings? I will make this land without bread or water, for I am more concerned for this land, while they forbear to hear my Warnings, than for the wilderneſs of Zin wherein no man dwells. This land ſhall be brought to that paſs, that one ſhall hardly find a man to aſk how he fended in the ſtorm.

42. April. 5. About the midle of the day, there appeared to me a great light, and it was ſaid unto me, I have no great commiſſion for thee at this time, being to go to the north of Scotland to tell them, That now their cup is full, and ere long it ſhall be as empty as ever it was full; for many of them hall never have a full cup in this place again, and it ſeems to be one of the laſt warnings.

43. April 15. it was ſaid unto me, I have given out a long roll of warnings, but this generation hath mocked at them, and now I am to go to the main land of Scotland, and to tell them that thoſe warnings they receive from this place darkly, hall ſhortly be accompliſhed; for I have a remnant of tender-hearted chriſtians here, who will lay it co heart, but this place is hardened by mocking and coffing ſo that any tender-hearted chriſtian dare not let it be known they lay it to heart, let they be mocked by their neighbours. But this generation ſhall have few more warnings, till they be warned with the ſword in their own boſoms! The firt year shall lay the land deſolate. Their deſign is to put their pretended king upon the throne, but they shall aoon put the wild fox that runs in the wood upon the throne as they shall put him or any of that race upon it, as my ſervants, hanged on gibbets for adhering to my intereſt, have tetified and declared.
