of_o that_o but_o just_a a_o motion_n of_o the_o earth_n in_o this_o city_n and_o the_o royal_a camp_n and_o other_o part_n beyond_o the_o sea_n that_o it_o be_v predictive_a and_o foretell_v of_o a_o

as_o the_o conveyance_n of_o its_o description_n of_o the_o great_a work_n and_o change_v god_n will_v make_v for_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n till_o it_o appear_v that_o course_n of_o earthquake_n

then_o by_o its_o own_o appearance_n for_o if_o first_o christ_n convey_v his_o kingdom_n by_o earthquake_n as_o type_n and_o pledge_n it_o be_v but_o reasonable_a to_o expect_v when_o he_o alarm_n the_o world_n with_o earthquake_n he_o have_v something_o to_o do_v more_o than_o ordinary_a in_o the_o advancement_n of_o it_o else_o his_o so_o great_a use_n of_o they_o in_o his_o word_n will_v be_v but_o as_o the_o sound_n of_o the_o mountain_n and_o amuse_v in_o vain_a by_o the_o so_o often_o use_v of_o earthquake_n he_o teach_v we_o to_o expect_v by_o they_o see_v as_o on_o one_o side_n he_o use_v earthquake_n in_o his_o word_n to_o express_v great_a thing_n for_o his_o kingdom_n by_o so_o on_o the_o other_o side_n he_o use_v earthquake_n that_o be_v so_o in_o fact_n to_o and_o in_o his_o providence_n to_o foretell_v some_o change_n for_o his_o kingdom_n follow_v they_o according_a to_o his_o word_n 2._o the_o nation_n and_o place_n where_o this_o motion_n of_o the_o earth_n come_v be_v such_o as_o be_v close_o concern_v in_o the_o change_n that_o god_n be_v about_o to_o make_v be_v either_o of_o the_o protestant_a profession_n or_o of_o the_o ten_o king_n that_o yet_o give_v their_o kingdom_n to_o the_o beast_n that_o god_n be_v please_v therefore_o to_o guide_v the_o motion_n of_o unquiet_a vapour_n over_o so_o many_o country_n and_o city_n it_o be_v like_o the_o

that_o this_o city_n be_v to_o bear_v so_o happy_a a_o part_n in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v preserve_v for_o his_o servant_n david_n be_v sake_n and_o that_o god_n in_o christ_n be_v the_o holy_a one_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o it_o 3._o that_o which_o above_o all_o assure_v i_o so_o be_v that_o sure_a word_n of_o prophecy_n that_o time_n be_v so_o near_o for_o the_o
