A79857	A voice from the temple to the higher povvers. Wherein is shewed, that it is the work and duty of saints, to search the prophesies and visions of holy Scripture, which concern the later times: and that Jesus Christ will reveal the understanding of them, neer the end of their accomplishment. And so much, is here clearly proved, and the objections to the contrary answered. Also severall prophesies are here opened, concerning the time of the end; as what is the present work of the Lord in the world: and wherein the saints (whether the higher powers or others) are now to move and follow him. Likwise [sic] what will be the work of the Lord forward, and all along from year to year, till the mysterie of God be finished, both among the Christian gentiles, and Jewes. By John Canne.

either_o of_o monarchy_n or_o antichistime_n but_o rather_o seek_v to_o oppress_v the_o body_n and_o soul_n of_o the_o people_n under_o the_o heavy_a burden_n of_o they_o both_o 2._o thou_o be_v to_o

let_v they_o make_v answer_n in_o his_o word_n what_o peace_n so_o long_o as_o the_o whoredom_n of_o jezabel_n and_o her_o witchcraft_n be_v so_o many_o what_o peace_n so_o long_o as_o the_o 4_o
