[Footnote 487: Canon Curteis remarks of the early Quakers, 'What was

translating into modern equivalents.'--G.H. Curteis, _Dissent in
Relation to the Church of England_, 268.]

atmosphere of religious excitement, could sometimes enter thoroughly
into the spirit of the more religious Friends.'--H.H. Dobney, _Free
