D. The Lord Albert Laskie being at Styck-husen behinde us, with the Earle John of Embden and Friesland, &c. E.K. The Curten seemeth to be far backward in the stone: and the stone to be clear between the Curten and the fore-part. Under the Curten I see the leggs of men up to the knees. D. Then appeared one, and said: Il...... Room for a Player. Jesus, who would have thought, I should have met you here? E.K. He is all in his ragged Apparel, down from the Girdle steed: But above he hath a white Satten Gerken. D. By the mercies of God we are here: And by your will and propriety, and the power of God you are here. Il...... Tush, doubt not of me, for I am I.L. E.K. My thinketh that the gravity of this Action requireth a more grave gesture, and more grave speeches. Bear with me, though I say so unto you. Il...... If I must bear with thee, for speaking foolishly, which art but flesh, and speakest of thy own wisdom: How much more oughtest thou to be contented with my gesture, which is appointed of him, which regardeth not the outward form, but the fulfilling of his will; and the keeping of his Commandments: which is God: whose wisdom unto the world is foolishnesse, but unto them that fear him, an everlasting joy, mixed with gladnesse, and a comfort of life hereafter: Partaking infallible joyes, with him that is all comeliness and beauty. How say you to this, Sir, Ha? E.K He turneth up his heels to E.K. E.K. I do not understand your words: for because do onely repent your sayings. Il...... It is the part of him that is a servant to do this duty: Of him that watcheth, to look what he seeth: For the greatest point of wisdom, is, reverently, to consider thy calling. It is said, do that, which is appointed, for he that doth more, is not a true servant. E.K. How can that be? Il....... Speak when thy time cometh. Sir, here is mony: but I have it very hardly. Bear with me, for I can help thee with no more. Come on Andras, where are you Andras? E.K. Now cometh one in a Gown to him. The Gown is bare like a prentice of London, a young man. Il...... Did not I bid thee go yonder, and fetch me money. Andras...... Whither. Il...... This is one of them that forgetteth his businesse so soon as it is told him. And...... Sir, I went half way. Il...... And how then? Speak on, Speak on. And...... Then being somewhat weary: I stayed, the rather because I met my friends, The third day I came thither: but I found him not at home. His family told me, that he was newly gone forth. Il...... And you returned a Coxcombe. Well thus it is: I placed thee above my servants; and did what I could to promote thee: and endeavoured dayly to make thee free. But I am rewarded with loytring, and have brought up an idle person. Go thy way, I will deliver thee to the Officer The Officer shall deliver thee to the Prison: and there thou shalt be rewarded. For such as do that they are commanded, deserve freedom: but unto those that loytre, and unto such as are idle, vengeance, and hunger belongeth., E.K. He taketh him by the arm, and delivereth him to a man with a staffe in his hand: and he putteth him in at a door. E.K. Now Il himself goeth into a house, which all this while appeared on the left hand. Il...... Come on. [E.K.] Now he bringeth another by the hand.] Il...... My thinketh you should be a fit man to do my message. E.K. Now he whispereth him in the ear, and pointeth out h.... Il...... I warrant the man, be not abashed. A strange matter. [Pointing to E.K.] Il...... I have business in Denmark, and this fellow is afraid to go thither: Tell him, thou comest from me, and that I will come my self shortly. I know he will do so much for me, he hath had much acquaintance with me...... I care not, if I had some man to keep me Company. [E.K.] This new come man said so.] E.K. He whispereth again with his man in his ear. Il...... These good fellows are not ready, or else they might go with thee. Go thy way in Gods name: See that you do your businesse. I keep such servants, as none in all the Countrey keepeth. E.K. He keepeth no servants. Il...... Meddle with that, you have to do with all. I pray this man, and that man, and every one deceiveth me. Good Lord, where should a man finde a true friend now adayes? I will go and tell the knave that he provide for himself. For it will be marvellous hard weather. You were best to do so, least you blow your Nails. E.K. He speaketh to one within the house. Il...... Thus you see me (masters) how I am troubled with my servants. How now what aileth thee? [E.K. There cometh a woman round about his house, and she seemeth to passe by him. She is in English Attire.] Il...... I will know what aileth her to cry. What aileth thee? Woman. One of my Children is dead. Il...... Alas poor Childe: How can Children resist cold? she might have kept it warmer. Cold pierceth, where shot cannot enter. D. This woman is not of our company? I trust, None of our Children, shall perish in this cold. Il...... Ha, A, your Children? you keep them warm: It will do them no hurt. Those that are warned, eschue danger to come: For many things are prevented by the quality of wisdom. D. I trust, we shall safe arrive at the place appointed, in Cracow, or elsewhere. D. But as concerning Vincent Seve, brother in Law to the Lord Albert Laskie, I pray you to shew us the truth of his state. E.K. I see him walking in a street; and a thick man, with him; And Gerlish seemeth to come after him. The thick man his beard is somewhat like my Lord his beard, he cometh after Vincent. Vincent hath a black satten Dubblet on, cut with crosse cuts; He hath a ruffe about his neck, along one edged with black, or blue. D. I beseech you. I.L. to shew us what Town that is. Il...... Speaking to him that sheweth it: for I shew it not. D. O God. Il...... I remembe not the name of any such Town. Quem Deus non amat, non novit. E.K. Now the Town appeareth again, the Sea runneth by it. There is an old rotten Church standing at the Town end. The Town seemeth to be 60. or 80. miles off. E.K. It seemeth to be Embden in my judgement. E.K. But Vincent and Gerlish seem not to be in one Town, or street. D. I beseech you to say unto us whether A.L. be furnished with money, at Graye John his hand, so as may serve our turn, or no. Il...... If I have not told you already, I will. You grudge at me. [E.K.] He speaketh to E.K. Il...... Judge my words with reason, and thou shalt finde them true, Touch them with understanding, and thou shalt finde them profound. My words are true, Because I am sent by Truth: Neither are we to speak gravely, when we take upon us the persons of Buyers and Sellers. Whosoever doth the will of his Master truely in this World, shall be laughed to scorn: But whoso speaketh worldly and sendeth out shadows, is accounted a pillar of the Earth. Happy are those which are not foolish, neither in works say, There is no God; Such request, such answer. Such earthly minde, such heavenly motions. Yet Heaven speaketh truth, and the Earth lyeth. This is not my office which I have taken in hand; yet because I have dealt with you as a worldly, I was the fittest to answer your worldly expectation. D. As you have dealt with us, not according to your office, but according to our worldly expectation: So now do we desire to understand somewhat according to our higher and heavenly expectation, of our doing the determined will of the Highest. E.K. He is gone, and all the Stone as red as blood. D.[2] E.K. Now he is come again, and standeth in the fire. Il...... Thus saith the Lord, I have taught you how to live, I have set you Statutes, and have wished you my Peace; Follow me, and I will be your God: For unto them that are wise, shall there be more wisdom given; But unto them that are become foolish, my wisdom is a... These five years to come, are the Deliverance... Yea, sorrw shall bring forth her Children. My Honour shall be defaced, and my holy Places pluckt. No man hath ever seen such a world: For Now shall they say unto the Mountains, Come and cover us, and unto the Waters, Swallow us up: for we know there is no God; neither is there any care of Mankind. I will plague the people, and their blood shall become Rivers. Fathers shall eat their own Children, And the Earth shall be barren: The Beasts of the field shall perish, And the Waters shall be poisoned. The Air shall infect her Creatures, And in the Deep shall be roaring. Great Babylon shall be built, And the son of wickednesse, shall sit in Judgment. But I will reserve two Kingdoms untouched, And I will root out their wickednesse. Yea, thus saith the Lord, From the North shall come a Wirlwind, And the Hills shall open their mouths: And there shall a Dragon flie out, such as never was. But I will be glorified by you, and by those that are not yet dead. And you shall have power, such as I will be glorified by. Keep therefore the Statutes which I taught you, Forget not my words: For unto those that look back, there is great wo. Happy are they that continue to the end. Amen. E.K. Now he is gone. D....... E.K. Now he is come again. Il...... Thus saith Jehova: I am the beginning and the end, The root and life of all Righteousnesse. I say, (by my self) I am with you, And will blesse you in Righteousnesse. Cease therefore to move me, for I am Almighty, And inquire not of me, what I have determined; For Time groweth, and I am a Just God. Therefore Cease, Cease, I say: I in my self say Cease. Call not upon my name in defiled places; Least the wicked ones hear what I determin. I will visit you at your journeys end: I will testifie my promise to you. Be in haste therefore: And flie from sin; And flie the society of such as are accursed: For I am jealous over my people. Yea I will not suffer them to drink or taste of their vessels. Be you unto me a people, that I may behold my people: And I will be unto you both, A God for ever. E.K. IL. saith Amen, and falleth all in pieces, as small as ashes. E.K. Now all is Clear, and the Curtain is come again. D. Deo Omnipotenti sit omnis Honor laus& gloria, in secula seculorum. Amen.
