was See also:born at See also:Lille on the 13th of See also:January 1616. From an See also:early See also:age she was under the See also:influence of See also:religion, which took in course of See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O.

Holland, See also:England and See also:Scotland. Her religious See also:enthusiasm, peculiarity of views and disregard of all sects raised both zealous persecutors and warm adherents. On her See also:death at See also:Franeker, See also:Friesland, on the 3oth of See also:October 168o, she See also:left a large number of followers, who, however, dwindled rapidly away; but in the early 18th See also:century her influence revived in Scotland sufficiently to See also:call forth several denunciations of her doctrines in the various Presbyterian See also:general assemblies of 1701, 1709 and 1710. So far as appears from her writings and See also:con-temporary records, she wa ,, a visionary of the See also:ordinary type, distinguished only by the audacity and persistency of her
pretensions.
Her writings, containing an See also:account of her See also:life and of her visions and opinions, were collected by her See also:disciple, See also:Pierre Poiret (19 vols., See also:Amsterdam, 1679-1686), who also published her life (2 vols., 1679). For a See also:critical account see Hauck, Realencyklopadie (See also:Leipzig, 1897), and Etude sur Antoinette Bourignon, by M. E. S. (See also:Paris, 1876). Three of her See also:works at least have been translated into See also:English:—An Abridgment of the See also:Light of the See also:World (See also:London, 1786) ; A See also:Treatise of Solid Virtue (1699) ; The Restoration of the See also:Gospel Spirit
(1707).
