Truth is all that is truth.
The Mortimer I spake of, is the first of the six: there were six Mortimers Earles of March. Edmond was the last, and Roger the first; that Mortimer was the Grandfathers Grandfather of this Edmond.
E. K. There seemeth some one to call her, whom I hear now.
Ma …… I come.
△. She took up her Skrolls on the ground, of which some were very old, and she put up her book.
Ma …… This may stand you in some stead.
△. Mitte lucem tuam & veritatem tuam, Jesu Christe, Lux vera, & veritatis perennis Fons.

△. Wc prefented our selves, ready for instruction receiving, and presumed not to call my good Minister spiritual, but by humble prayer referred all to God his good pleasure.
E K. The Golden Curtain which covereth all the Stone hangeth still, but I heare a voice or sentence thrice repeated, thus.
A voice …… Sanctum, Signatum, & ad tempus.
△. The sense hereof may be divers wayes understood, and more then I can imagine, but which sense is to our instruction would I faine know.
A voice. …… Sanctum, quia hoc velle suum; sigillatum quia determinatum ad tempus.
E K. Hard spceches, but he could not perfectly discern them.
A voice …… Ad tempus & ad tempus (inquam) quia rerum consummatio. All things are at hand.
The Seat is prepared.
Justice hath determined.
The Judge is not yet willing.
Mercy thrusteth it self betwixt the Divinity. But it is said,
The Time shall be shortned.
E K. Saw no creature: But the voice came behind him over his head, till now; when he espied one standing on the Table besides the silke cloth on which the Stone stood, he seemed like a Husbandman all in red apparel, red hose close to his legs, a red jacket, red buttoned cap on his head, yea, and red shooes. He asked E. K, how he did, and E. K. answered, Well thank God.
△. By your apparel it should seem you have somewhat to say concerning the Commons of this Realme, and not of high School-points, or Sciences. I am desirous to know who sent you? What is your message? and what is your name? for a name you have peculiar as all Creatures else.
△. He paused a good while; whereupon I asked him if he considered my speeches?
…… I consider your speeches, for I have left nothing behind.
E. K. He kneeleth down and seemeth to say somewhat, his speech is quick, round, and ready. He seemeth to pray in a strange Language. I perceived these words among many other, Oh Gahire Rudna gepbna oh Gahire, &c.
His Countenance was directed towards the Stone.
…… Vestra non meæ facio.
E K.
