EDITH (reverentially). Christ is the Word, The everlasting oath of God. I dare not. ENDICOTT. You own yourself a Quaker, — do you not ? I own that in derision and reproach I am so called. ENDICOTT. Then you deny the Scripture To be the rule of life. EDITH. Yea, I believe And you deny That the Lord's Day is holy. Every day Is the Lord's Day. It runs through all our lives, As through the pages of the Holy Bible "Thus saith the Lord." ENDICOTT. You are accused of making An horrible disturbance, an...d affrighting The people in the Meeting-house on Sunday. What answer make you ? I do not deny That I was present in your Steeple-house On the First Day ; but I made no disturb- ance. ENDICOTT. Why came you there ? Because the Lord commanded. His word was in my heart, a burning fire Shut up within me and consuming me, And I was very weary with forbearing ; I could not stay. ENDICOTT. 'T was not the Lord that sent you ; As an incarnate devil did you come ! On the First Day, when, seated in my chamber, I heard the bells toll, calling you together.
