but_o yet_o for_o the_o comfort_n of_o the_o saint_n two_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v note_v first_o 7._o that_o under_o the_o sound_n of_o the_o six_o angel_n that_o pronounce_v the_o woe_n the_o death_n of_o the_o beast_n be_v declare_v 7._o and_o that_o his_o determinate_a time_n be_v quite_o finish_v and_o though_o he_o strive_v mighty_o like_o a_o die_a hog_n for_o life_n at_o the_o last_o gasp_n 7._o yet_o he_o shall_v never_o reign_v again_o in_o majesty_n establish_v by_o a_o usurp_a law_n 44._o over_o christ_n and_o his_o saint_n as_o he_o have_v do_v for_o his_o time_n time_n and_o divide_v of_o a_o time_n 27._o his_o 42._o month_n and_o his_o three_o day_n and_o half_a be_v upon_o the_o point_n of_o expire_a and_o the_o lord_n christ_n be_v beginning_n 17._o nay_o have_v begin_v to_o take_v the_o kingdom_n and_o to_o reign_v of_o who_o kingdom_n there_o shall_v be_v no_o end_n second_o note_v that_o under_o the_o sound_n of_o the_o six_o angel_n the_o witness_n be_v to_o be_v kill_v but_o to_o arise_v from_o death_n and_o ascend_v up_o to_o god_n in_o the_o cloud_n and_o their_o rise_n be_v the_o inhabitant_n of_o the_o earth_n woe_n even_o to_o such_o as_o have_v no_o hope_n but_o in_o this_o life_n it_o will_v be_v and_o it_o begin_v to_o be_v a_o time_n of_o woe_n to_o they_o for_o all_o creature_n comfort_n help_n and_o communion_n shall_v be_v take_v away_o and_o dead_a to_o they_o and_o i_o believe_v we_o be_v under_o that_o sound_n oppression_n and_o injustice_n do_v so_o mighty_o abound_v in_o the_o kingdom_n and_o magistracy_n of_o the_o world_n for_o when_o the_o seven_o angel_n sound_v than_o christ_n or_o the_o anoint_v â—ho_o be_v king_n of_o righteousness_n and_o king_n of_o peace_n shall_v reign_v in_o the_o kingdom_n and_o magiâ—tracy_n of_o the_o world_n 6._o for_o a_o certain_a space_n or_o a_o thousand_o year_n as_o the_o scripture_n speak_v which_o yet_o general_o do_v not_o appear_v though_o this_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n do_v begin_v to_o appear_v in_o and_o among_o the_o saint_n that_o be_v scatter_v abroad_o the_o beast_n be_v give_v up_o his_o last_o breath_n and_o his_o violent_a kick_n and_o sprawl_v trouble_v the_o whole_a world_n for_o a_o little_a time_n for_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o beast_n be_v the_o life_n of_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o the_o earth_n therefore_o i_o believe_v the_o witness_n be_v not_o in_o kill_v 17._o but_o in_o rise_v from_o death_n and_o that_o the_o world_n must_v see_v ere_o long_o which_o will_v be_v a_o three_o woe_n to_o they_o when_o they_o shall_v see_v poor_a despise_a saint_n who_o no_o man_n regard_v 8_o to_o partake_v of_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o city_n of_o god_n and_o they_o themselves_o put_v by_o there_o be_v one_o passage_n of_o

enmity_n against_o every_o appearance_n of_o god_n so_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v rise_n up_o of_o much_o bitterness_n in_o the_o east_n west_n north_n and_o south_n among_o the_o son_n of_o man_n against_o god_n though_o they_o think_v not_o so_o for_o they_o think_v their_o cruelty_n be_v godliness_n and_o they_o think_v their_o malice_n be_v zeal_n and_o they_o think_v their_o oppress_a imprison_a and_o murder_v the_o saint_n under_o the_o name_n of_o erroneous_a roundhead_n do_v god_n good_a service_n and_o it_o appear_v they_o be_v four_o evil_a angel_n because_o they_o be_v bind_v up_o like_o prisoner_n 15._o in_o so_o bad_a a_o place_n as_o in_o the_o river_n euphrates_n and_o they_o be_v prepare_v for_o this_o time_n that_o be_v for_o a_o hour_n a_o day_n a_o month_n and_o a_o year_n to_o slay_v the_o three_o part_n of_o man_n ☞_o it_o appear_v they_o be_v four_o evil_a angel_n if_o we_o consider_v first_o what_o the_o great_a river_n euphrates_n be_v i_o believe_v this_o euphrates_n be_v the_o spirit_n of_o the_o beast_n or_o the_o very_a serpent_n himself_o which_o like_o a_o great_a river_n overflow_v every_o son_n and_o daughter_n of_o the_o first_o adam_n 12._o and_o this_o river_n euphrates_n be_v to_o be_v dry_v up_o when_o the_o six_o angel_n pour_v out_o his_o viol_n so_o that_o the_o way_n of_o the_o king_n of_o the_o earth_n may_v be_v prepare_v the_o meaning_n to_o i_o be_v this_o that_o when_o this_o spirit_n of_o the_o beast_n 27._o be_v dry_v up_o destroy_v and_o subdue_v than_o the_o king_n of_o the_o east_n or_o such_o in_o and_o upon_o who_o the_o son_n of_o righteousness_n rise_v first_o 6_o which_o be_v the_o elect_a or_o city_n zion_n they_o come_v and_o take_v the_o kingdom_n and_o the_o anoint_n in_o they_o who_o be_v the_o lord_n our_o righteousness_n reign_v in_o the_o earth_n that_o be_v in_o mankind_n forever_o and_o ever_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o beast_n or_o serpent_n be_v call_v euphrates_n 14._o because_o as_o the_o river_n euphrates_n in_o the_o history_n overflow_v a_o great_a part_n of_o the_o earth_n so_o this_o spirit_n of_o darkness_n overflow_v mankind_n and_o drown_v they_o in_o ignorance_n pride_n covetousness_n malice_n disobedience_n discontent_n and_o deceive_a zeal_n but_o when_o this_o be_v dry_v up_o as_o it_o must_v be_v when_o the_o seven_o angel_n sound_v than_o the_o nation_n appear_v for_o god_n and_o the_o saint_n be_v call_v king_n of_o the_o east_n for_o their_o knowledge_n 2._o and_o for_o their_o faithfulness_n to_o god_n for_o as_o the_o wise_a man_n or_o king_n of_o the_o east_n find_v out_o where_o jesus_n christ_n lie_v when_o he_o be_v bear_v but_o will_v not_o tell_v herod_n who_o lay_v wait_v to_o kill_v he_o but_o go_v another_o way_n so_o these_o spiritual_a king_n of_o the_o east_n 10._o or_o as_o daniel_n call_v they_o the_o wise_a or_o understand_a people_n 14._o they_o know_v where_o the_o anoint_v appear_v and_o they_o know_v that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n be_v spiritual_a 27_o for_o the_o anoint_v teach_v they_o all_o thing_n and_o they_o have_v experience_n of_o the_o love_n sincerity_n humility_n peace_n and_o the_o like_a which_o be_v the_o law_n and_o wall_n of_o that_o kingdom_n and_o likewise_o they_o know_v that_o the_o spiritual_a power_n of_o darkness_n as_o ignorance_n pride_n envy_n discontent_n hypocrisy_n self-love_n and_o the_o like_a be_v the_o serpent_n that_o will_v destroy_v christ_n or_o the_o anoint_v for_o if_o pride_n rule_v which_o be_v the_o serpent_n in_o the_o child_n of_o disobedience_n than_o humility_n which_o be_v christ_n in_o the_o saint_n must_v be_v destroy_v and_o if_o malice_n reign_v than_o love_n which_o be_v christ_n in_o the_o saint_n must_v die_v and_o so_o of_o all_o the_o rest_n and_o the_o saint_n know_v this_o therefore_o in_o the_o second_o place_n they_o be_v call_v king_n of_o the_o east_n because_o they_o do_v not_o betray_v christ_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o herod_n the_o serpent_n 4._o but_o they_o hold_v forth_o the_o power_n of_o christ_n in_o faith_n and_o patience_n till_o god_n finish_v his_o work_n 14._o and_o thereby_o destroy_v the_o enemy_n now_o when_o pride_n covetousness_n injustice_n envy_n self-love_n and_o the_o like_a be_v dry_v up_o like_o a_o river_n that_o can_v run_v than_o the_o way_n be_v prepare_v for_o these_o king_n of_o the_o east_n 2._o to_o take_v the_o kingdom_n and_o to_o reign_v in_o with_o christ_n and_o righteousness_n for_o ever_o and_o these_o four_o angel_n be_v bind_v up_o in_o this_o river_n euphrates_n
