Sunday, a meridie hora 3 circiter. Uriel being called by E.T. there appeared one clothed with a long robe of purple: all spanged with gold; and on his head a garland or wreath of gold: his eyes sparkling: of whom I asked whether the characters noted for the table were perfect. He answered: 'They are perfect. There is no question.' 6: 'Are you Uriel?' Then presently came in one, and threw the brave spirit down by the shoulders: and beat him mightily with a whip: and took all his robes and apparel of him: and then he remained all hairy and ugly. And still the spirit was beaten of him, who came in after him. And that spirit, which so beat him, said to the hearing of my skryer: 'Lo, thus are the wicked scourged.' 6: 'Are you Uriel, who speaketh that?' URIEL: 'I am he. Write down and mark this: for it is worthy of the noting. This was thy persecutor Lundrumguffa. I brought him hither, to let thee see how God hath punished thy enemy.' E.T.: 'He drew the wicked spirit away by the legs and threw him into a great pit, and washed his hands, as it were, with the sweat of his own head. For he seemed to be all in a sweat.' Hereupon my skryer saw Uriel go away: and he remained out of sight a little while. Then he came in again, and another with him, and jointly these two said together: 'Glorify God for ever.' And then Uriel did stand behind, and the other did sit down in the chair with a sword in his right hand, all his head glistering like the sun. My skryer saw an innumerable company of angels about him, and Uriel did lean on the square table by. He that sat in the chair (whom we take to be Michael) said then: 'Go forward: God hath blessed thee I will be thy guide Thou shalt attain unto thy seeking The world begins with thy doings Praise God The angels under my power, shall be at thy commandment. Lo, I will do thus much for thee Lo, God will do thus much for thee Thou shalt see me: and I will be seen of thee And I will direct thy living and conversation. Those that sought thy life, are vanished away. Put up thy pen. ' So he departed.
