Es said: When God saw that Looeamong&#8217;s warrior angels had come upon the earth<br \/>\nregions, discovered by Columbo, God withdrew, saying:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">2. Behold, I will use this as a testimony unto Jehovih and against this false Kriste, in time<br \/>\nto come. For I will withdraw my angel hosts and give up, for a season, the central lands of<br \/>\nGuatama.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">3. And it shall come to pass, that mortals in these lands shall not prosper in peace, nor<br \/>\nrighteousness, nor in learning, nor in science, nor in inventions, nor in anything good<br \/>\nunder the sun. For Looeamong&#8217;s warrior angels shall obsess them, and they shall build up,<br \/>\nand then destroy, and the people of Aliattes, the Yodopans, shall be destroyed, and the<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"fontstyle0\">I&#8217;huans and their cities shall be ruined.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">4. Now it did come to pass, as spoken by God, the central lands of Guatama, from sea to<br \/>\nsea, fell under the dominion of the warrior angels of Looeamong, the false Kriste, and<br \/>\nthey became warriors and destroyers; nor rose they in peace, nor wisdom, nor in anything<br \/>\ngood under the sun. But they lived as pilferers, debauchees, warriors, murderers and<br \/>\nidolaters of the false Kriste.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">5. God had said: I will go to the northward, to the western coast of Uropa, and my angel<br \/>\nhosts shall inspire another people to migrate to Guatama for conscience sake (Jehovih&#8217;s<br \/>\nsake).<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">6. And it shall be proved, in time to come, that they whom I shall take across the ocean,<br \/>\nshall inherit Guatama; and they shall prosper in peace and virtue and wisdom and<br \/>\nlearning and inventions. And man, in after time, shall witness the difference betwixt the<br \/>\npeople of Looeamong&#8217;s possessions as compared with mine own in the northern regions.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">7. And so, God sent his angel hosts amongst the factions of western Uropa, and inspired<br \/>\nmortals to rise up, and depart out of that country for conscience sake. And they that were<br \/>\ninspired of God crossed over the ocean, and landed in Guatama, and they named the place<br \/>\nof their landing Plymouth Rock, saying: For God&#8217;s sake and for liberty, help us, O Thou,<br \/>\nour Creator.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">8. But they said not: For Kriste&#8217;s sake, nor for sake of the Holy Ghost.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">9. Nevertheless, Looeamong&#8217;s angel warriors had accompanied them across the ocean;<br \/>\nand, when they beheld what mortals had done, they departed, by means of the mortal<br \/>\nships returning to Uropa, for these angels were too low in grade to cross the ocean<br \/>\nwithout the presence of mortals.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">10. And, when they had come to the other side, they reported to Looeamong&#8217;s angel<br \/>\ngenerals what had been done by mortals, in Guatama, and these angel generals sent a<br \/>\ndispatch to Hapsendi, Looeamong&#8217;s heavenly kingdom, to learn his will and pleasure.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">11. Looeamong sent back word as followeth, to wit: Send thou a sufficient inspiring host<br \/>\nto obsess all mortals who have thus possessed Guatama, lest the country fall into<br \/>\nJehovih&#8217;s hands. Spare them not; possess all, or ruin all, in the name of Kriste and the<br \/>\nHoly Ghost.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">12. And thus it came to pass, as regardeth this false Kriste and his affairs with God:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">13. The latter had inspired, for sake of Jehovih, certain other people in north-western<br \/>\nUropa, who were Faithists in heart, but not practisers of the rites and ceremonies, who<br \/>\ncalled themselves Quakers, to migrate to Guatama, to shape the destiny of the inhabitants<br \/>\nto peace and virtue and wisdom; and these Quakers were covenanted to Jehovih, to never<br \/>\nengage in war, nor to quarrel, nor to contend with any man for opinion&#8217;s sake.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">14. So Looeamong&#8217;s obssessing angels did fall upon the colonies of settlers in Guatama,<br \/>\nand obsess them to flay and to burn and to exterminate the Quakers, for Kriste&#8217;s sake, as<br \/>\nmortals said.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">15. And the angels of Looeamong inspired mortals to lay in wait for any such other<br \/>\nFaithists as might migrate to Guatama.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">16. God had said: Suffer these hardships to my people to be recorded, for in kosmon, they<br \/>\nshall be testimony of the power of heaven on mortals.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">17. To the end, that these things might become historical, God suffered Looeamong&#8217;s<br \/>\nangels to raise up, and obsess one, Cotton Mather, who devoted his time and labor to the<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"fontstyle0\">establishing of this false God.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">18. And the said Cotton Mather not only accomplished these wicked deeds, but he put<br \/>\nhimself on record as a worshiper of Kriste. Thus, as followeth, were his words, to wit:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">\u201cT<\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">O YE AGED AND BELOVED <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">J<\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">OHN <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">H<\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">IGGINSON<\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">:<br \/>\nThere be now at sea a shippe (for our friend Esias Holdcraft, of London, did<br \/>\nadvise me by the last packet that it would sail sometime in August), called ye<br \/>\n&#8216;Welcome,&#8217;R. Greenwas, master, which has aboard a hundred or more of ye<br \/>\nheretics and malignants called Quakers, with W. Penn, who is ye scamp at ye<br \/>\nhead of them. Ye General Court has accordingly given secret orders to Master<br \/>\nMalachi Huxtett, of ye brig &#8216;Porpoise,&#8217;to waylaye ye said &#8216;Welcome,&#8217;as near ye<br \/>\ncoast of Codd, as may be, and make captives of ye Penn and his ungodly crew,<br \/>\nso that ye Lord may be glorified and not mocked on ye soil of this new<br \/>\ncountry with ye heathen worshippers of these people. Much spoil can be made by<br \/>\nselling ye whole lot to Barbadoes, where slaves fetch good prices in rumme and<br \/>\nsugar; and we shall not only do ye Lord great service by punishing ye wicked,<br \/>\nbut shall make gayne for his ministers and people. Yours, in ye bowels of Christ,<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">Cotton Mather.\u00bb<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">19.
