it_o have_v please_v god_n beyond_o all_o my_o former_a thought_n on_o this_o scripture_n providential_o to_o lead_v i_o to_o such_o a_o review_n of_o it_o as_o thereby_o to_o show_v i_o that_o the_o

according_a to_o scripture_n of_o which_o i_o have_v before_o and_o do_v now_o offer_v my_o evidence_n from_o it_o so_o full_a that_o i_o can_v but_o be_v assure_v myself_o it_o be_v so_o and_o hope_v every_o consider_v person_n will_v be_v also_o assure_v as_o that_o the_o 1260_o day_n shall_v end_v 97._o and_o if_o so_o there_o be_v so_o great_a thing_n to_o be_v do_v from_o this_o year_n to_o that_o time_n that_o we_o may_v very_o well_o be_v in_o a_o continual_a expectation_n what_o god_n will_v gracious_o please_v to_o do_v this_o year_n and_o every_o follow_a year_n till_o all_o thing_n

even_o then_o begin_v to_o sound_v when_o those_o 1260_o day_n shall_v end_v i_o come_v therefore_o to_o the_o close_a consideration_n of_o this_o great_a portion_n of_o prophecy_n i_o have_v propose_v to_o discourse_n of_o and_o here_o i_o find_v six_o great_a effect_n that_o must_v needs_o come_v according_a to_o this_o prophecy_n before_o the_o 1260_o day_n be_v end_v see_v then_o

of_o the_o seven_o that_o come_v and_o shall_v move_v so_o quick_o and_o speed_v all_o its_o event_n when_o the_o six_o be_v at_o a_o end_n before_o that_o because_o of_o the_o slow_a motion_n of_o the_o six_o the_o two_o woe_n be_v say_v to_o come_v hereafter_o rev._n 9.12_o that_o be_v by_o leisure_n so_o thr_fw-mi sixth_z trumpet_n though_o its_o motion_n shall_v be_v more_o swift_a at_o

but_o so_o much_o time_n leave_v as_o be_v necessary_a to_o bring_v these_o great_a effect_n to_o pass_v one_o after_o another_o with_o which_o prophecy_n have_v charge_v itself_o before_o the_o 1260_o day_n end_n effect_v 1_o the_o spirit_n of_o life_n must_v enter_v from_o god_n into_o the_o witness_n in_o so_o remarkable_a a_o manner_n set_v they_o upon_o their_o foot_n that_o all_o that_o see_v shall_v behold_v they_o with_o terror_n they_o shall_v say_v this_o be_v the_o finger_n of_o god_n this_o be_v from_o heaven_n something_o of_o this_o have_v be_v do_v in_o ireland_n and_o

that_o all_o that_o behold_v they_o shall_v say_v whereunto_o will_v this_o thing_n grow_v observe_v it_o therefore_o whenever_o you_o see_v those_o suffering_n oppress_a protestant_n in_o france_n and_o piedmont_n like_o foot_n of_o brass_n now_o burn_v in_o a_o furnace_n that_o they_o may_v come_v out_o refine_v and_o purify_v and_o rest_v upon_o themselves_o in_o open_a view_n then_o expect_v

a_o counterpart_n or_o sample_n of_o what_o be_v do_v in_o heaven_n so_o the_o loud_a voice_n in_o heaven_n just_a after_o the_o text_n v._o 15._o be_v so_o hear_v in_o heaven_n that_o they_o resound_v on_o earth_n so_o the_o war_n in_o heaven_n c._n 12.7_o be_v counterpart_v in_o that_o famous_a battle_n of_o theodosius_n the_o great_a on_o earth_n with_o eugenius_n and_o argobastes_n so_o when_o the_o purity_n of_o the_o witness-churche_n be_v from_o that_o time_n decree_v establish_v in_o heaven_n it_o be_v as_o if_o the_o witness_n be_v call_v up_o into_o heaven_n and_o ascend_v

they_o out_o in_o what_o they_o do_v for_o so_o heaven_n in_o this_o prophecy_n often_o signify_v even_o power_n and_o authority_n thus_o heaven_n signify_v rev._n 12.4_o where_o the_o star_n of_o heaven_n mean_v supreme_a prince_n that_o the_o roman_a dragon_n or_o imperial_a power_n brush_v down_o with_o his_o tail_n or_o train_n of_o army_n and_o there_o be_v a_o eye_n of_o the_o same_o

be_v a_o great_a effect_n of_o and_o according_a to_o prophecy_n and_o because_o it_o be_v to_o lead_v and_o go_v before_o the_o face_n of_o many_o other_o great_a effect_n of_o prophecy_n and_o all_o before_o 97._o it_o therefore_o require_v to_o be_v do_v within_o a_o little_a time_n and_o when_o you_o see_v it_o know_v that_o it_o be_v a_o dawn_n of_o the_o morningstar_n and_o that_o one_o of_o the_o foremost_a in_o the_o train_n of_o these_o great_a effect_n for_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o your_o eye_n and_o so_o that_o the_o rest_n be_v come_v on_o and_o the_o very_a

their_o kingdom_n from_o the_o beast_n that_o ten_o of_o the_o great_a city_n must_v needs_o fall_n and_o it_o be_v very_o remarkable_a that_o as_o here_o it_o be_v say_v the_o ten_o of_o the_o city_n fall_v first_o in_o c._n 17._o it_o be_v say_v first_o they_o shall_v hate_v the_o whore_n that_o be_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n but_o than_o it_o be_v intimate_v that_o the_o reason_n be_v the_o

when_o they_o withdraw_v their_o kingdom_n from_o the_o beast_n they_o present_o will_v hate_v the_o whore_n and_o make_v her_o desolate_a and_o naked_a but_o either_o and_o both_o way_n the_o ten_o
