Samuel Crisp
Samuel Crisp (1670—1704) was a brilliant young priest in the Church of England whose hunger for truth and righteousness led him to leave off all formal, shadowy religion and join with the despised people called Quakers to worship God in spirit and truth. The first part of this document consists of letters explaining his reasons for leaving the national church, and describing how “the appearing of the Daystar in his heart” scattered the clouds and caused the shadows to flee away. The second part contains extracts from his writings on the subjects such as divine worship, gospel ministry, the true church, and the seriousness with which all men should prepare for the great day of the Lord.
I set out, having in company a young man who had been bred at college, whose name was Samuel Crisp; a meek spirited youth, having received the knowledge of the truth the right way.
