In this book is the figure of the dividing the land of Israel among the tribes of Israel ... wherein is the figure of the bigness of the priest's portion, and temple therein, and of the Levite's portion, and of the city Jehovah Shammah ... and of the ground for food for them that minister in the city ... and of Prince Jesus his portion ... and of the bigness of the city New Jerusalem ... and all or most of the signs of Christ's coming explained [in] verse, with other mysteries, by the aforesaid [sic] author.

Kings from the Earth shall speak this Speech to thee in scorn How art thou fall'n O Lucifer from Heav'n thou Son of Morn Lo thus the fierce-look'd Man that was so prudent mighty and Would fight against the King of Kings is broken without hand After that he was grown great in twenty three hundred days Was beaten by the Cedar-branch and so has lost the Bays For he an Army hath that throw stones with a Sling full well The Sword can't hurt them and they are called chosen faithfull And then the Lord an Egypt-flood doth make there with broad streams Wherein no Galley goes with Oars nor Ship sails in those Leams And then a whirlwind with great rain and hailstones fly so faââ The tacklings are loosed that they cannot strengthen the Mast There 's an end of the Ships of Chetham that afflict Ashur and that afflict Eber c. Two Prophets two and forty months oppose the Man of sin Who is the eighth and of the seventh sort chiefest ruler in The City Rome 'fore it is burnt and wept over by Kings Saying alas when Heav'n is glad and Hallelujah sings In Cuds they preach where Christ our Lord Jesus was crucify'd And their words true believ'd by few by signs are justify'd For if that any man will hurt them in their Prophecy By fire that comes out of their mouth thereof they 're sure to dye And they have pow'r to hinder rain twelve hundred sixty days And to turn waters into blood if the World won't God praise And they also the Earth can smite with Plagues both great anâ small Whilst that Euphrate's Angels fight with head and tail and all By their Horses whose heads are like the heads of Lions fierce Out of whose mouths go fire and smoak and brimstone that ãâã pierce Those men that have not God's seal in their foreheads ãâã that will Persist in thefts and sorceries and the Saints seek to kill An hour a day a month a year these Angels pow'r doth last And they the third part of bad men into death's lap doe cast And five months pow'r 'fore this is giv'n to Locusts for to sting Such wicked men with grievous pains but not to death thââ bring After the third part of the Sun is smit and eke the Moon And eke the Stars that one third part of all their light is gââ Which Plague succeeds the Wormwood-drink that killeth many men And the burnt Mountain cast i' th' Sea precedeth that Plââââ then The third part of the Sea proves blood that one in three doe dyâ As well in Ships as those that in the bottom thereof lye And before this fire Hail and Blood are cast upon the Earth Which burn the third of trees and grass and so begins a dunk Which doth encrease to such a price I think I reckon well Barly is for a Noble sold Wheat one pound a Bushel And Oyl proves scarce and Wine proves scant God's ãâã none can controul Because the Drunkard can't get Wine he then begins to bâââ When these Prophets have said and done what they ought sââ and doe Then he that was ' live dead and lives doth kill them like foe And they dead are not put in Graves that all men may thââ see Who'f late were sad but then are glad ' cause from them thââ are free John then and there doth prophesie 'fore Nations Kings ãâã People In the Quire which his Reed laid out and Pope-Gods 's in ãâã Steeple For he that said what if I will he tarry till I come Will make it known he still doth live and 't is believ'd by sâââ For Heylin his Geography doth to this purpose say John went alive into his Grave and there himself did lay As Page five hundred thirty sev'nth doth witness where ãâã sed Some learned Men doe think he sleeps and that he is not dâââ Now of the sev'n last Plagues I tell that are to Angels gâââ By one of the four Seraphims chief Ministers in heav'n Whose office it is night and day the service to begin In the Temple of that fashion Moses Temple was in With a great Vessel made of Glass and other things I count Which Moses saw when he with God was on the burââ Mount. But whilst the Angels take the Plagues the strength of them is so In the Temple where they are giv'n no Man can therein go Then Moses and Christ Jesus sing and many more accord Thou onely art holy O God who fears not thee O Lord. For then God with a great voice bids the sev'n Angels go forth And pour the Vials of the wrath of God upon the Earth The first comes then and a noysome and grievous Sore doth fall Upon the Men that on the Man of Sin as God doe call The second Vial makes the Sea as dead Man's blood to be Then ev'ry living Soul doth dye that is in the great Sea. The third Angel's Vial doth make waters to drink not good For in the Fountains and Rivers they 're turned into Blood. The fourth Angel's Vial doth make the Sun scorch Men with fire Yet they blaspheme the Name of God and from Sin don't retire The fifth Angel's Vial doth make the Pope-God's Kingdom dark And pain doth make them gnaw their tongues yet they good-will not work The sixth Angel's Vial doth make Euphrate's River dry That the East Kings in Mageddon may be there instantly The seventh Angel's Vial doth make a great Earthquake and Hail That Cities fall and Talent stones hit men yet they doe rail But before this The Isr'elites and Jews shall ask the way To Palestine and Sion Hill and be found there that day When Magog's force more swift than horse shall make that Land to tremble And some to run for fear o'Gun and i' th' desart assemble For Magog grows exceeding great as I doe understand Toward the South and to the East and to the pleasant Land. And when six thousand years are come since God the World did build That the great Sabbath is begun my Signs are all fulfill'd Which Verses I mean in the plain literal sence And although Astronomers declare in their Books that one Star is bigger than all the Globe of Earth and Water yet I believe them not For that John in his Revelation speaking of things that must be hereafter Rev. 4.1 which he saw in a Vision in Heaven when he was called up thither to that purpose saith thus That lo there was a great Earthquake and the Sun became black as sackcloth of hair and the Moon became as blood and the Stars of heaven fell unto the Earth even as a Fig-tree casteth her green Figs when she is shaken of a mighty wind And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together and every Mountain and Island were moved out of their places And the Kings of the earth and the great Men and the chief Captains and the mighty Men and every bondman and every freeman hid themselves in the dens and rocks of
