He had already seen him in the clear horizon: And he suspected not the secrets revealed unto him. Neither are these the words of an accursed devil. Whither, therefore, are ye going? This is no other than an admonition unto all creatures; unto him among you who shall be willing to walk uprightly: But ye shall not will, unless God willeth, the Lord of all creatures.
