# Revelations of Divine Love/Chapter 4

THE FIRST REVELATION
CHAPTER IV
"I saw . . . as it were in the time of His Passion . . . And in the same Shewing suddenly the Trinity filled my heart with utmost joy"
IN this [moment] suddenly I saw the red blood trickle down from under the Garland hot and freshly and right plenteously, as it were in the time of His Passion when the Garland of thorns was pressed on His blessed head who was both God and Man, the same that suffered thus for me. I conceived truly and mightily that it was Himself shewed it me, without any mean.
And in the same Shewing suddenly the Trinity fulfilled my heart most of joy. And so I understood it shall be in heaven without end to all that shall come there. For the Trinity is God: God is the Trinity; the Trinity is our Maker and Keeper, the Trinity is our everlasting love and everlasting joy and bliss, by our Lord Jesus Christ. And this was shewed in the First [Shewing] and in all: for where Jesus appeareth, the blessed Trinity is understood, as to my sight.
And I said: Benedicite Domine! This I said for reverence in my meaning, with mighty voice; and full greatly was astonied for wonder and marvel that I had, that He that is so reverend and dreadful will be so homely with a sinful creature living in wretched flesh.
This [Shewing] I took for the time of my temptation, ​—for methought by the sufferance of God I should be tempted of fiends ere I died. Through this sight of the blessed Passion, with the Godhead that I saw in mine understanding, I knew well that It was strength enough for me, yea, and for all creatures living, against all the fiends of hell and ghostly temptation.
In this [Shewing] He brought our blessed Lady to my understanding. I saw her ghostly, in bodily likeness: a simple maid and a meek, young of age and little waxen above a child, in the stature that she was when she conceived. Also God shewed in part the wisdom and the truth of her soul: wherein I understood the reverent beholding in which she beheld her God and Maker, marvelling with great reverence that He would be born of her that was a simple creature of His making. And this wisdom and truth: knowing the greatness of her Maker and the littleness of herself that was made,—caused her to say full meekly to Gabriel: Lo me, God's handmaid! In this sight I understood soothly that she is more than all that God made beneath her in worthiness and grace; for above her is nothing that is made but the blessed [Manhood] of Christ, as to my sight.

MARK ROBINSON, Esq Vice-Admiral of the Red; and a Member of the Bath and West of England Society for the Encouragement of Agriculture, Arts, Manufactures, and Commerce.
This officer is, we believe, a son of the late Rear-Admiral of that name, who, when Captain of the Shrewsbury, lost a leg in the action off Cape Henry, Sept. 5, 1781. He was made a Commander some time previous to the conclusion of the war with the colonies; and during the ensuing peace, commanded the Trimmer sloop. His post commission bears date Sept. 21, 1790; and at the commencement of hostilities with the French republic, he obtained the command of the Brilliant frigate, stationed in the North Sea, and afterwards employed at the reduction of Calvi, in Corsica. He subsequently commanded the Arethusa of 38 guns, in Sir John B. Warren’s expedition against Quiberon.
​In the summer of 1804, our officer was appointed to the Swiftsure of 74 guns; in which ship, after cruising for some time on the coast of Spain, he accompanied Lord Nelson to the West Indies in pursuit of the combined fleets of France and Spain. He afterwards commanded the Royal Sovereign, a first rate, and the Gibraltar of 80 guns.
Captain Robinson was advanced to the rank of Rear-Admiral, April 28, 1808; and Vice-Admiral, Aug. 12, 1812. He married, Feb. 5, 1799, Mrs. Shirley, of Pulteney Street, Bath, who died at that place on the 12th Jan. 1811, aged 65 years.

GEORGE ROBINSON, Esq. [Commander.]
Obtained his first commission in 1790, and lost a leg whilst serving as second lieutenant of the Thames 32, Captain James Cotes, in an action with the French frigate Uranie, of far superior force.
This combat took place on the 24th Oct. 1793, in lat. 47° 2' N. long. 7° 22' W., and was continued with great spirit on both sides, from about 10-30 a.m. until 2-20 p.m., when the enemy hauled off to the southward, making all the sail she could, and leaving the British ship in too crippled a condition to pursue her, as will be seen by the following enumeration of her damages and loss, taken from Captain Cotes’s official letter, dated at Gisors, in France, April 9th, 1795:–
The bowsprit, all three lower masts, and the main-top-mast, badly woumlod in a number of places; the bobstays, bowsprit-shrouds, jib-stay, ond haliards, all the standing and spring-stays, most of the lower and top-mast rigging, and the fore part of the mizen-top, shot away; the main-top-sail-yard cut through in the slings; the fore and main-yards rendered unserviceable, the former left hanging by the trusses alone, and nearly half way down to the deck, the latter having neither lift nor brace remaining; the courses and all the after sails completely riddled; the gangways and that part of the main-deck before the main-mast, from the waterway to the hatchways, torn up; the bitts demolished; three guns dismounted, almost every breeching and tackle carried away; the gaff obliged to be lowered, to prevent the mizen-mast going over the side; nine shot between wind and water; and 34 officers and men, out of 134, the total number, including boys, on board, killed and badly wounded.
The Thames mounted thirty-two long twelve and six-pounders, without a single carronade; her opponent twenty, eight long eighteens, twelve long eights, and four thirty-six-pounder carronades, with a complement of at least 330 men. ​The condition of the French ship can he judged of only from her appearance after the action had ceased, when several men were seen over her sides, busily employed in stopping shot-holes, and it was evident that all her pumps were at work.
In the course of the same day, the Thames was obliged to surrender to a French squadron, consisting of three large frigates and a corvette, under the command of Monsieur Allemand, by whom the Uranie had been sent in chase of a brig about forty-eight hours before. Previous to their being landed at Brest, the whole of the British prisoners were completely pillaged by the republican crews, over whom their officers had little or no control: it is, however, but fair to state, that the latter did all they could to mitigate the sufferings of their captives.
On the 23d June 1795, Lieutenant Robinson was promoted to the rank of commander; and in Jan. 1796, he obtained a pension of £91 5s. per annum; which, May 8th, 1816, was increased to £200.

Distinguished himself on many occasions, and received several severe wounds, whilst serving as lieutenant of the Speedy sloop, successively commanded by Captains Jahleel Brenton and Lord Cochrane, on the Gibraltar station, in 1799 and the two following years. Although highly praised by both those distinguished officers, in their several public letters, and most strongly recommended by the latter for promotion, after the capture of El Gamo, he did not obtain the rank of commander until Aug. 15th, 1806; Earl St. Vincent not considering, as he intimated to his lordship, that “an action in which only three men were killed on the side of the British, was of sufficient importance to entitle Lieutenant Parker to advancement.” This shamefully treated gentleman died at Limerick, in the year 1824.

GEORGE PARKER, Esq Rear-Admiral of the Red.
At the commencement of the war with France, in 1793, we find this officer serving as First Lieutenant of the Crescent frigate, commanded by the present Sir James Saumarez. After the capture of le Réunion, already mentioned at p. 178, he was promoted to the rank of Commander in the Albicore sloop, on the North Sea station. His post commission bears date April 7, 1795. His next appointment was to the ​Squirrel, of 20 guns, and from that ship he removed, towards tinclose of 1796, into the Santa Margaritta frigate, in which, after serving for some time on the Irish station, he visited Jamaica, North America, the Mediterranean, and Leeward Islands. He retained the command of the Santa Margaritta during the remainder of the war.
In the summer of 1805, Captain Parker commanded the Stately, of 64 guns, in the North Sea. From thence he was sent to the Baltic, where, on the 22d March, 1808, in company with the Nassau, another 64-gun ship, he fell in with the Prince Christian Frederick, a Danish 74, which surrendered after a running fight of near two hours, and soon after grounded near the island of Zealand. It being found impossible to get the prize afloat, the wind blowing strong on the shore, from whence the English ships were only two cables’ length distant, and the Danes preparing their artillery, it was found necessary to set her on fire, by which means she was totally destroyed. The loss of the British on this occasion was trivial when compared with that sustained by the enemy. The former had 5 men killed and 44 wounded; the latter 55 slain and 88 wounded.
Captain Parker was soon after appointed to the Aboukir, of 74 guns, and continued in that ship until the autumn of 1813, when he exchanged into the Bombay, another third rate, attached to the Mediterranean fleet. He was advanced to the rank of Rear-Admiral, June 4, 1814.

HYDE PARKER, Esq. [Post-Captain of 1807.]
Eldest son of the late Admiral Sir Hyde Parker, Knt. by Anne, daughter of John Palmer Boteler, of Henley, Esq., and grandson of the gallant veteran, whose obstinate contest with a Dutch squadron, off the Dogger Bank, and untimely end, have been noticed at pp. 175–177, of our first volume.
We first find the subject of this sketch serving on board the Narcissus frigate, commanded by Captain (now Vice-Admiral) Donnelly, who speaks highly of his conduct when employed in her boats, under the orders of Lieutenant John Thompson, at the destruction of about a dozen settees in Heires bay, July 11, 1804. His commission as a Lieutenant bears date Sept. 24, in the same year; he was made a Commander Jan. 22, 1806; appointed to the Prometheus fireship, in April, 1807; and advanced to post-rank, Oct. 13, following.
From this period we lose sight of Captain Parker, until his appointment to the Tenedos frigate, April 15, 1812. During the remainder of the war he was very actively employed on the North American station, where he assisted at the capture of the U.S. ship President, in Jan. 1815.
Captain Parker’s last appointment was. Mar. 15, 1818, to the Iphigenia of 42 guns; in which ship he visited Quebec, and subsequently served on the Jamaica and Mediterranean stations. Whilst in the West Indies no less than 85 of his ​officers and men fell victims to the climate. He was put out of commission June 12, 1821.
This officer married, July 16, 1821, Caroline, youngest daughter of Sir Frederic Morton Eden, Bart.

# Response to Criticism by Court of Appeals

​In response to media requests for comments, the Arkansas Supreme Court issues the following statement for immediate release:
The Supreme Court is aware that the Court of Appeals has criticized the Supreme Court’s transfer of a limited number of ineffective-assistance-of-counsel cases. This criticism is based on three factual errors made by the Court of Appeals: (1) that the Supreme Court lacked the authority to transfer cases, (2) that the transfer "summarily" occurred "without explication or further explanation," and (3) that the Supreme Court improvidently retained "exclusive use" of the Criminal Justice Coordinator’s (CJC) staff.
The Supreme Court believes these errors must be addressed. First, the Supreme Court’s authority for the reassignment of cases is clearly set out in Arkansas Supreme Court Rule 1-2(g) as well as Amendment 80 to the Arkansas Constitution. Second, members of the Supreme Court met with members of the Court of Appeals on at least four occasions over several months prior to the transfer to explain and discuss it. The Supreme Court’s staff assisted the Court of Appeals and held a CLE program for their staff regarding these cases. Third, to date, this reassignment resulted in nine new case submissions for the Court of Appeals. Of those nine cases, on only three would the CJC’s staff have assisted the Supreme Court. This slight reduction in the CJC workload allowed them to better focus on the 220 criminal justice post-conviction cases that were not transferred.
The Supreme Court has complete confidence that the Court of Appeals’ twelve judges and 28 lawyers can handle these cases. This is especially true given that these cases are universally handled by intermediate courts of appeal throughout the United States.

The letter of the Commander of the Faithful, may God prolong his days to me, wherein he commands me to buy for him there full-grown foreign virgin slave-girls, and to write him a description of each one of them, and her value, has reached me.
Concerning the first girl - may Allah lengthen the days of the Commander of the Faithful, for her throat is slender, her back broad, her eyes black as antimony, her cheeks sweet; verily her bosom is rounded and the flesh of her limbs is like gold mingled with silver, and she resembles that which is said;
The ornament of her who is fair is the blackness of her eye,
As if she were silver well mingled with gold.
And her price, O Commander of the Faithful, is thirty thousand dirhems.
And with regard to the second girl, verily she is superbly beautiful, of just stature and perfect proportion. So gentle is her speech, that hearing it, the sick would recover health. And her price, O Commander of the Faithful, is thirty thousand dirhems.
And as to the third girl, truly her glance is languishing, her hand exquisite, her form faultless; she is grateful for little, obedient to her friend; her elegance is astonishing, as though she were descended from a gazelle. And her price, O Commander of the Faithful, is eighty thousand dirhems.
