"She contendeth she knew James Naylor formerly, for he is now no more James Naylor, but refined to a more excellent substance; and so she saith she came with him from Eccles to Bristol." _Q._ "What made thee lead his horse into Bristol, and cry, 'Holy, holy, holy!' and to spread thy garment before him?" _A._ "I was forced thereto by the power of the Lord." _Q._ "Whether didst thou kneel before him?" _A._ "I was forced thereto by the power of love." _Q._ "Dost thou own him to be the Prince of Peace?" _A._ "He is a perfect man; and he that is a perfect man is the Prince of Peace." _Q._ "Hast thou a husband?" _A._ "I have a man which thou callest my husband." _Q._ "What made thee leave him, and to follow James Naylor?" _A._ "It is our life to praise the Lord, and the Lord my strength is manifest in James Naylor." _Q._ "Oughtest thou to worship James Naylor upon thy knees?" _A._ "Yea, I ought so to do." Hannah Stranger, Thomas Stranger, and Timothy Wedlock were next examined. It is not necessary to reproduce their interrogations; they much resemble what has been given above. Dorcas Erbury was next called. She was widow of William Erbury, once a minister. _Q._ "Where dost thou live?" _A._ "With Margaret Thomas." _Q._ "Wherefore dost thou sing, 'Holy, holy, holy'?" _A._ "I did not at that time; but those that sang did it discharging of their duty." _Q._ "Dost thou own him to be the Holy One of Israel?" _A._ "I do, and with my blood will seal it." _Q._ "And dost thou own him for the Son of God?" _A._ "He is the only begotten son of God." _Q._ "Wherefore didst thou pull off his stockings, and lay thy clothes beneath his feet?" _A._ "He is worthy of it, for he is the Holy One of Israel." _Q._ "Christ raised those that had been dead; so did not he?" _A._ "He raised me." _Q._ "In what manner?" _A._ "He laid his hand on my head after I had been dead two days, and said, 'Dorcas, arise!' and I arose, and live, as thou seest." _Q._ "Where did he this?" _A._ "At the gaol in Exeter." _Q._ "What witness hast thou for this?" _A._ "My mother, who was present." _Q._ "His power being so much, wherefore opened he not the prison doors and escaped?" _A._ "The doors shall open when the Lord's wish is done." The Bristol magistrates sent Naylor and his deluded followers to London, to be examined before Parliament. On the 31st October it was ordered that a Committee should be appointed to consider the information given touching "the misdemeanour and blasphemies of James Naylor and others at Bristol and elsewhere, and to report thereon."
