“That there is universal Light, the universality of all ages has plentifully testified. There is nothing more constant now that can plead either such antiquity or general consent. Not a nation in the world ever knew an age in which it was destitute of the discovery of internal Light. The content of mankind, the goodness and justice of God, and the reason of the things itself, plead strongly for the universality of this Light.”
Testimony Stated and Vindicated 1673, William Penn
