maidens in whatever things was
useful in the creation.'--R.
ABRAHAM._

_'It was the age of long
discourses and ecstatic
exercises.'--MORLEY'S CROMWELL._

_'George Fox's preaching, in those
early years, chiefly consisted of
some few, but powerful and
piercing words, to those whose
hearts were already in some
measure prepared to be capable of
receiving this doctrine.'--SEWEL'S
HISTORY._

_'But at the first convincement
when friends could not put off
their hats to people, nor say you
to a particular but thee and thou;
and could not bowe nor use the
world's fashions nor customs ...
people would not trade with them
nor trust them ... but afterwards
people came to see friends honesty
and truthfulness.'--G. FOX._

_'The light which shows us our
sins is that which heals us.'--G.
FOX._

_'GOD works slowly.'--BISHOP
WESTCOTT._
