to_o the_o argue_n from_o the_o space_n the_o mahometan_n false_a prophetism_n and_o tyranny_n have_v be_v in_o the_o world_n that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n must_v at_o the_o far_a be_v in_o

take_v from_o the_o ver●_n letter_n or_o most_o unavoidable_o necessary_a sense_n of_o what_o we_o find_v in_o that_o book_n of_o the_o revelation_n relate_v hereunto_o which_o also_o none_o sh●ll_v be_v able_a to_o deny_v when_o the_o reason_n for_o so_o give_v the_o sense_n be_v due_o consider_v and_o that_o all_o chronology_n and_o history_n undoubted_o agree_v i_o begin_v therefore_o with_o such_o principle_n as_o will_v strong_o argue_v from_o the_o consideration_n of_o mahometanism_n according_a to_o general_n rule_v of_o scripture_n princip_n i_o that_o the_o mahometan_a falsehood_n and_o tyranny_n have_v be_v a_o judgement_n upon_o the_o christian_a world_n no_o christian_a of_o what_o persuasion_n soever_o can_v or_o will_v i_o think_v deny_v that_o it_o have_v arisen_a for_o

it_o accord_v to_o the_o whole_a tenor_n of_o scripture_n as_o the_o jew_n kill_v the_o lord_n of_o life_n and_o call_v his_o blood_n on_o they_o and_o on_o their_o child_n and_o their_o so_o

such_o a_o relation_n betwixt_o a_o judgement_n and_o a_o sin_n be_v especial_o most_o argumentative_a when_o the_o sin_n in_o its_o appearance_n be_v engrave_v on_o the_o judgement_n now_o whoever_o
