Thursday, mane horam circiter 8. Cracovia. d: 'I have (0 Lord), according to my simple ability, endeavoured myself to declare to Stephen those things 1 was willed. And now, 0 Lord, we await thy further direction: not presuming to propound (as now) matter, such as our frail state might move us unto: but therein we crave thy aid, thy light and wisdom, &c.' E.K.: 'Here is a great head with wings like a cherubin: all of fire, the eyes are very big, as big as your hat, and his head as big as this table.' SPIRIT: 'He that is asleep, let him sleep on. He that goeth awry, let him not return into the way. Behold, the Lord hath forgotten the earth, and it is a burden to me that 1 am here, therefore 1 go.' E.K.: 'He is gone, and flyeth in a strange order, upward in a spiral line in, manner. VOICE: 'Put all things to silence that the Lord had touched, the receptacle and the books, and see you open them not, nor touch them until you hear more from me. 'Take this one lesson: you are in favour with me, and for the rest care not., E.K.: 'Now is a red thing like a cloud come allover the Stone.'
