MODEST REMARKS
UPON THE
BISHOP OF _LONDON'S_
LETTER CONCERNING
THE LATE EARTHQUAKES.

_By One of the People called_ QUAKERS.

_And now, O ye Priests, this Commandment is

not lay it to Heart, to give Glory unto my

Blessings: Yea, I have cursed them already

base before all the People, as ye have not_
kept _my Way, but have been_ PARTIAL _in the
Law_.

Malachi, ii. 1_st_. 2_d._ and 3_d._ _Verses_.
