Excerpt: ... 1 found both her and her preacher very light and airy; too light 11 receive the weighty things of God. In her lightness she came and asked me, ' If she should cut my hair?' 1 was moved to reprove her, and bid her cut down the corruptions in herself with the sword of the Spirit of God; so after I had admonished her to be more grave and sober, we p issed away. Afterwards in her frothy mind she made her boast, that she ' came behind me, and cut off the curl of my hair;' but she spoke falsely. From Wrexham we came to West-cljester; and it being the fair-time, we staid there awhile, and visited friends. Fur I had travelled through every county in Wales, preaching the everlasting gospel of Christ: ancNa brave people there is now, who have received it, and sit under Christ's teaching. But before I left Wales, I wrote to the magistrates of Beaumaris concerning their imprisoning John-ap-John; letting them see their condition, the fruits of their christianity, and of their teachers. Afterwards I met with some of them near London; but oh! how ashamed they were of their action! From West-chester we came to Liverpool, where was at that time a fair: and as I rode through the fair, there stood a friend upon the cross, declaring the truth to the people; who seeing me ride by, and knowing I had appointed a meeting to be the next day upon a hill not far off, gave notice to the people, 'That George Fox, the servant of 'the Lord, would have a meeting next day upon such a 'hill; and if any feared the Lord, they might come and 'hear him declare the word of life to them.'

repent repent repent! George Fox is calling people to repent but not in the Ian Paisley fire-and-brimstone way. But in the most loving way you can imagine. His faith in God's spirit passed down through Moses, Abraham, the old testament prophets through to Jesus, John and the disciples was, how to the americans say? Awesome. For any Quaker or Christian that needs to be reminded of the reality of God in our everyday life as a loving creator - no myths, no secrets - this is a must read.
