say_v and_o so_o call_v the_o son_n of_o david_n of_o the_o tribe_n of_o judah_n when_o as_o indeed_o he_o be_v david_n lord_n he_o be_v david_n lord_n as_o he_o be_v the_o creator_n but_o as_o he_o

●●age_n of_o david_n as_o he_o be_v a_o redeemer_n he_o may_v be_v and_o be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o david_n and_o whatsoever_o david_n do_v in_o point_n of_o war_n it_o be_v justify_v by_o jesus_n christ_n as_o he_o be_v his_o lord_n for_o it_o be_v say_v in_o scripture_n that_o david_n walk_v with_o a_o perfect_a heart_n before_o the_o lord_n in_o all_o thing_n only_o in_o the_o matter_n of_o

the_o revelation_n of_o john_n the_o first_o beast_n that_o be_v like_o a_o lion_n for_o he_o act_v as_o in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n who_o be_v the_o lion_n himself_o of_o the_o tribe_n of_o judah_n as_o jacob_n do_v prophesy_v when_o he_o bless_v his_o son_n now_o i_o will_v have_v the_o reader_n to_o understand_v that_o all_o these_o four_o beast_n speak_v of_o here_o they_o be_v man_n though_o they_o be_v call_v by_o the_o revelation_n of_o john_n beast_n also_o he_o do_v distinguish_v they_o into_o four_o several_a form_n the_o first_o like_o a_o lion_n the_o second_o like_o a_o calf_n the_o three_o beast_n have_v a_o face_n like_o a_o man_n and_o the_o four_o beast_n be_v like_o a_o fly_a eagle_n these_o four_o beast_n as_o i_o say_v before_o be_v all_o man_n and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o good_a man_n only_o this_o i_o will_v have_v the_o reader_n to_o mind_n that_o they_o be_v call_v beast_n in_o relation_n to_o the_o work_n that_o they_o be_v to_o do_v and_o so_o they_o act_v after_o that_o manner_n as_o such_o beast_n use_v to_o do_v as_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o lion_n be_v to_o destroy_v and_o tear_v in_o piece_n and_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o calf_n be_v to_o act_v simple_o and_o foolish_o and_o yet_o innocent_a also_o now_o the_o three_o beast_n have_v a_o face_n like_o a_o man_n that_o be_v he_o act_v as_o a_o rational_a man_n by_o wisdom_n and_o policy_n and_o the_o four_o beast_n be_v like_o a_o fly_a eagle_n that_o be_v he_o act_v in_o swiftness_n and_o strength_n and_o according_a to_o other_o property_n that_o be_v in_o a_o eagle_n and_o so_o according_a to_o the_o nature_n and_o property_n of_o these_o four_o beast_n do_v man_n act_v and_o do_v act_n in_o this_o world_n therefore_o call_v four_o beast_n when_o as_o they_o be_v no_o other_o but_o man_n but_o i_o shall_v leave_v the_o distinction_n of_o the_o person_n of_o the_o other_o three_o to_o those_o that_o be_v better_o read_v in_o history_n than_o i_o be_o neither_o be_v it_o reveal_v unto_o i_o who_o the_o person_n be_v therefore_o i_o shall_v speak_v no_o more_o than_o be_v reveal_v unto_o i_o but_o the_o reader_n may_v understand_v what_o the_o four_o beast_n be_v by_o what_o be_v afore-written_a therefore_o i_o shall_v say_v no_o more_o of_o it_o but_o go_v unto_o the_o 8_o verse_n chap._n x._o in_o the_o eight_o verse_n it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o four_o beast_n have_v each_o of_o they_o six_o wing_n about_o they_o and_o they_o be_v full_a of_o eye_n within_o and_o they_o rest_v not_o day_n and_o night_n say_v holy_a holy_a holy_a lord_n god_n almighty_a which_o be_v and_o which_o be_v and_o which_o be_v to_o come_v the_o chief_a thing_n in_o this_o verse_n to_o be_v know_v be_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o those_o six_o wing_n which_o the_o four_o beast_n have_v which_o be_v full_a of_o eye_n within_o the_o meaning_n be_v this_o that_o each_o of_o these_o four_o beast_n have_v six_o wing_n that_o be_v they_o have_v six_o wing_n apiece_o and_o these_o six_o wing_n apiece_o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o revelation_n which_o give_v they_o wisdom_n to_o order_n and_o manage_v the_o affair_n of_o their_o battle_n and_o these_o six_o wing_n be_v employ_v thus_o two_o of_o they_o be_v to_o be_v employ_v before_o in_o the_o forefront_n of_o the_o battle_n and_o two_o of_o they_o be_v to_o be_v employ_v in_o the_o rear_n or_o hinder_v part_n of_o the_o army_n lest_o the_o enemy_n shall_v come_v upon_o the_o back_n of_o they_o and_o the_o other_o two_o wing_n be_v to_o be_v employ_v in_o the_o middle_n that_o in_o case_n their_o enemy_n shall_v put_v they_o to_o the_o worst_a both_o before_o and_o behind_o that_o they_o may_v fly_v away_o with_o those_o two_o wing_n in_o the_o midst_n and_o this_o be_v very_o good_a revelation_n and_o wisdom_n and_o call_v by_o the_o revelation_n of_o john_n six_o wing_n for_o the_o scripture_n do_v call_v revelation_n and_o good_a counsel_n wing_n as_o that_o say_v revel_v 12._o verse_n 14._o it_o be_v say_v there_o be_v give_v unto_o the_o woman_n two_o wing_n of_o a_o great_a eagle_n that_o she_o may_v flee_v into_o the_o wilderness_n which_o wing_n be_v no_o other_o but_o revelation_n as_o i_o have_v open_v in_o the_o interpretation_n of_o the_o eleven_o of_o the_o revelation_n and_o where_o we_o find_v in_o the_o scripture_n that_o god_n have_v command_v his_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n to_o fly_v from_o one_o place_n to_o another_o in_o case_n of_o persecution_n it_o be_v not_o mean_v that_o god_n will_v give_v they_o wing_n to_o fly_v but_o he_o will_v give_v they_o wisdom_n and_o revelation_n to_o get_v from_o it_o and_o in_o this_o sense_n they_o may_v be_v say_v to_o have_v wing_n to_o fly_v away_o and_o in_o this_o sense_n the_o four_o beast_n aforesaid_a may_v be_v say_v to_o have_v each_o of_o they_o six_o wing_n and_o as_o for_o their_o be_v full_a of_o eye_n within_o that_o be_v they_o have_v a_o spirit_n of_o discern_v both_o of_o spiritual_a and_o of_o temporal_a thing_n therefore_o it_o be_v say_v that_o these_o four_o beast_n full_a of_o eye_n before_o and_o behind_o that_o be_v they_o have_v the_o eye_n of_o faith_n before_o and_o the_o eye_n of_o reason_n behind_o that_o be_v they_o do_v discern_v by_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n before_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n and_o how_o he_o become_v flesh_n and_o shed_v his_o blood_n as_o afterward_o be_v express_v by_o these_o four_o beast_n and_o the_o eye_n of_o reason_n be_v behind_o it_o do_v discern_v and_o see_v how_o the_o matter_n go_v in_o this_o world_n for_o though_o it_o be_v say_v they_o be_v full_a of_o eye_n yet_o they_o have_v but_o two_o eye_n apiece_o that_o be_v the_o eye_n of_o faith_n and_o the_o eye_n of_o reason_n but_o neither_o of_o these_o two_o eye_n do_v offend_v they_o as_o it_o do_v many_o thousand_o now_o adays_o and_o because_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n may_v not_o stumble_v at_o this_o interpretation_n because_o i_o say_v there_o be_v but_o two_o eye_n when_o as_o john_n say_v they_o be_v full_a of_o eye_n you_o may_v remember_v that_o i_o have_v write_v before_o concern_v the_o seven_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o but_o one_o spirit_n only_o that_o one_o spirit_n have_v seven_o several_a working_n in_o the_o seven_o church_n of_o asia_n so_o likewise_o these_o beast_n have_v but_o two_o eye_n yet_o they_o be_v full_a of_o discern_v both_o of_o spiritual_a and_o temporal_a matter_n for_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n do_v see_v up_o into_o heaven_n and_o the_o glory_n thereof_o and_o the_o eye_n of_o reason_n do_v see_v the_o utmost_a part_n of_o this_o world_n here_o below_o for_o these_o two_o eye_n do_v see_v as_o much_o as_o can_v be_v see_v if_o they_o have_v have_v forty_o eye_n they_o can_v have_v see_v no_o more_o but_o in_o regard_n they_o do_v see_v so_o much_o they_o be_v say_v by_o the_o revelation_n of_o the_o spirit_n that_o they_o be_v full_a of_o eye_n before_o and_o behind_o etc._n etc._n again_o it_o be_v say_v that_o these_o four_o beast_n rest_v not_o day_n and_o night_n say_v holy_a holy_a holy_a lord_n god_n almighty_a which_o be_v and_o be_v and_o be_v to_o come_v that_o be_v

observe_v that_o these_o four_o beast_n give_v glory_n and_o honour_n unto_o christ_n here_o as_o he_o be_v god_n the_o father_n as_o isaiah_n the_o 6_o and_o 3_o where_o it_o be_v say_v and_o one_o

that_o be_v this_o they_o be_v clothe_v in_o their_o mind_n while_o they_o live_v in_o this_o world_n with_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n which_o purify_v the_o ●eart_n and_o not_o by_o the_o

and_o these_o four_o and_o twenty_o elder_n be_v justify_v by_o faith_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o lamb_n they_o may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v clothe_v in_o white_a raiment_n that_o be_v they_o be_v

etc._n and_o in_o the_o 5_o verse_n it_o be_v say_v that_o there_o be_v seven_o lamp_n of_o fire_n burn_v before_o the_o throne_n which_o be_v the_o seven_o spirit_n of_o god_n the_o meaning_n of_o those_o seven_o lamp_n which_o burn_v before_o the_o throne_n i_o declare_v they_o be_v the_o seven_o church_n of_o asia_n that_o be_v the_o soul_n of_o the_o true_a believer_n which_o be_v of_o the_o

distance_n as_o if_o they_o be_v in_o present_a sight_n because_o god_n and_o faith_n know_v that_o time_n will_v be_v swallow_v up_o into_o eternity_n therefore_o it_o be_v that_o john_n do_v say_v in_o his_o vision_n that_o he_o see_v such_o and_o such_o thing_n already_o when_o as_o the_o thing_n which_o he_o speak_v that_o he_o see_v be_v not_o accomplish_v at_o that_o time_n nor_o many_o

but_o according_a to_o their_o faith_n it_o shall_v be_v unto_o they_o so_o much_o concern_v the_o seven_o lamp_n and_o the_o seven_o spirit_n of_o god_n i_o suppose_v the_o seed_n of_o faith_n may_v understand_v the_o true_a meaning_n of_o it_o chap._n ix_o in_o the_o six_o verse_n john_n say_v and_o before_o the_o throne_n there_o be_v a_o sea_n of_o glass_n like_o unto_o crystal_n and_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o throne_n and_o round_o about_o the_o throne_n be_v four_o beast_n full_a of_o eye_n before_o and_o behind_o here_o you_o that_o have_v faith_n may_v see_v that_o there_o be_v in_o heaven_n above_o the_o star_n a_o crystal_n sea_n like_o unto_o glass_n or_o a_o sea_n of_o glass_n like_o unto_o crystal_n that_o be_v the_o glorious_a water_n or_o sea_n above_o the_o star_n be_v set_v forth_o by_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v most_o pure_a and_o most_o esteem_v of_o by_o the_o reason_n of_o man_n here_o in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o this_o world_n but_o as_o certain_a as_o there_o be_v a_o sea_n and_o water_n in_o this_o world_n else_o the_o creature_n therein_o can_v not_o live_v so_o likewise_o there_o be_v a_o sea_n and_o water_n above_o the_o star_n though_o of_o another_o nature_n differ_v from_o this_o here_o below_o yet_o they_o be_v real_a substance_n as_o these_o be_v but_o because_o mortal_a man_n can_v declare_v nor_o make_v know_v the_o nature_n and_o substance_n of_o they_o neither_o can_v mortal_a man_n understand_v it_o if_o it_o can_v be_v declare_v therefore_o the_o revelation_n of_o john_n call_v it_o a_o sea_n of_o glass_n like_o unto_o crystal_n because_o crystal_n be_v high_o esteem_v of_o by_o the_o reason_n of_o man_n but_o however_o it_o be_v for_o certain_a that_o there_o be_v a_o sea_n and_o water_n above_o the_o star_n let_v it_o be_v like_o what_o it_o will_n for_o this_o i_o will_v have_v the_o reader_n to_o understand_v that_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v be_v not_o make_v of_o thing_n which_o do_v appear_v according_a to_o paul_n word_n then_o of_o necessity_n they_o must_v be_v make_v of_o thing_n that_o do_v not_o appear_v that_o be_v of_o thing_n above_o the_o star_n from_o whence_o the_o original_a of_o all_o life_n come_v but_o in_o what_o condition_n thing_n be_v and_o be_v in_o there_o in_o heaven_n no_o man_n can_v tell_v but_o by_o faith_n therefore_o if_o the_o revelation_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o faith_n will_v call_v the_o water_n above_o the_o star_n a_o sea_n of_o glass_n like_o unto_o crystal_n who_o shall_v gainsay_v it_o neither_o be_v it_o to_o be_v look_v upon_o as_o a_o allegory_n as_o many_o do_v vain_o imagine_v but_o a_o real_a spiritual_a substance_n for_o this_o must_v be_v understand_v by_o the_o reader_n that_o god_n create_v or_o make_v all_o creature_n of_o something_o he_o have_v matter_n and_o substance_n to_o make_v every_o creature_n of_o he_o do_v not_o make_v live_v substance_n of_o a_o allegory_n that_o be_v as_o if_o we_o shall_v say_v god_n make_v all_o

that_o slay_v abel_n the_o grandfather_n of_o all_o persecute_v devil_n for_o worship_v of_o god_n contrary_a to_o the_o tradition_n of_o their_o father_n so_o that_o the_o blood_n of_o righteous_a
