Two sorts of latter days, proved from Scripture. First, the latter days of perilous times, the which are to be ended before the great and glorious latter days have their beginning. Proved when the elder people or nation is to serve the younger. And by that servitude made blessed. The old and new testament made to agree. And truth vindicated against all heresies. By M. Marsin

since_o the_o apostasy_n from_o the_o truth_n the_o wife_a and_o best_a of_o man_n can_v not_o do_v it_o but_o god_n can_v give_v the_o simple_a wisdom_n when_o he_o please_v and_o with_o he_o there_o

of_o the_o truth_n but_o by_o unravel_v to_o they_o their_o mistake_n to_o the_o bottom_n for_o our_o author_n have_v lose_v the_o right_a apprehension_n of_o the_o world_n or_o time_n to_o come_v
