cry out. O Lord, rebuke him! for he will not be rebuked by me. Then all diſappeared.
12 hat in Nov. 1729. I thought I was ſtanding in the open fields, and ſaw a man coming to me with a big cup of blood in his hand, which when I beheld, He told me, He had a commiſſion to divide that cup into leſſer cups among five cities; then I ſaw five cups in his other band, ſo to be divided; he named Edinburgh, Glaſgow and Ayr: as for the other two I do not poſitively remember them. Which blood was to purge theſe cities of blood, for I will purge them till I bring my remnant to ſay, What have we to do any more with idols?
13. On this ſame month I ſaw two living creatures having ſix wings, two covered their faces, two covered their feet, and with two they did fly, and they cried, Holy, holy Lord God almighty, glory be to thee, who hath ſaid, I will not give my glory to another, nor my praiſe to graven images.

15. It was laid before me, that the Lord was about to purſue the blood of his ſervants, from the year 1661 to this day, and nothing will purge blood but blood, and when it is accompliſhed, it will be ſaid as the queen or Sheba ſaid to Solomon, that the one half was not told of what ſhe had found. For I have two words drawn, that of a foreign and that of an inteſting enemy, and if ye find any favour, it will be at the land of foreign enemy.
16. At another time I was awakened with a cry, ſaying, This is the ſecond time I have come unto thee with thiswarning
