Filled with the sand taken out of the bottom of this
River which was all the week till the Sabbath, and then
Ceased, and that every Friday in the evening this
Arabian would walk through the streets of that city, and
Then this Glass to the Jewes who counterfiled Christionity,
Saying ye Jewes shut up your shops, for now the sabbath
Comes. I should not speak of these Glasses, saith he, but that
The authority of my father has great power over me, and
Induces me to believe the miracle is from God, Let the
Reader believe what he thinks fit of these relations, which
I thought, for the strangeness of them not unpleasant to insert
I shall conclude with the consequences which my Jewish
Author deduces from them namly 1 that America or the west
Indies was accidentally in habited by a part of the ten tribes
Which pased thither out of Tartary by the streights of
Annian 2 that the ten tribes are not in any one place but in
Many because the prophets have foretold their return shall
Be into Palestine out of divers places 3 that the ten tribes
Did not return at the building of the second temple 4 that
This day they retain the Jewish religion 5 that the
propheices concerning their return to their country are of
necessety to be fulfilled 6 that from all the coast of the world they
Meet in Assyria and Egypt go preparing an easy pleasant
Way, and abounding in all things as Isaiah saith Chap XI
And from thence they shall fly to Jerusalem as birds to
Their nests Lastly that the Kingdom shall be no more
D divided but the twelves tribes shall be sbuject to one
Prince who is under the messiah the son of David and
That they shall never be driven again out of their
Land
