Thursday, a meridie circa 5 horam. Praga:. Note, my wife being in great perplexity for want of money, requested E.K. and me that the effect of the annexed petition might be propounded to God and his good angels, to give answer or counsel in the cause. Hereupon 1 prayed a little to the same purpose, and read the petition, &c. We desire God of his great and infinite mercies to grant us the help of his heavenly ministers, that we may by them be directed how or by whom to be aided and relieved in this necessity that we are in, of sufficient and needful provision for meat and drink for us and our family, wherewith we stand at this instant much oppressed: and the rather, because it might be hurtful to us and the credit of the Actions wherein we are vowed and linked unto his Heavenly Majesty (by the ministry and comfort of his holy angels) to lay such things as are the ornaments of our house, and the coverings of our bodies, in pawn either unto such as are rebels against his Divine Majesty, the Jews, or the people of this city, which are malicious and full of wicked slanders. I Jane Dee humbly request this thing of God, acknowledging myself his servant and handmaiden; to whom I commit my body and soul. E.K. wrote this for Jane Dee. E.K.: 'Here is one with a leather coat and a spade, with a white coronet on his head. He hath a bag on one side of him, and on the other side a round bottle. It seemeth like a husbandman, but a young fair man he is.' SPIRIT: 'Give ear unto me, thou woman, is it not written that women come not into the synagogue? Much less ought they to come before the testimony of the will of God to be fulfilled mightily, and to come against the world and against the pomp of ceremony and iniquity. But because thou hast humbled thyself, and hast refused to tarry before me, as it becometh thee, 1 will answer to thy infirmities. 'I cannot give thee that thou desirest, really, yet 1 bow my head, and so 1 counsel thee: let thy husband arise and gird himself together, and let him take his eyes with him, and let him hasten out of this place: for my thinks t;. 174 t;.
