13.2_o be_v for_o this_o reason_n because_o he_o can_v keep_v it_o no_o long_o but_o be_v out_o of_o hand_n to_o be_v bind_v i_o answer_v not_o so_o the_o dragon_n do_v not_o resign_v because_o he_o see_v he_o must_v be_v bind_v a_o thousand_o year_n but_o rather_o out_o of_o subtlety_n see_v by_o christian_a emperor_n his_o heathenish_a idolatry_n throw_v down_o and_o himself_o for_o a_o little_a time_n cast_v out_o of_o his_o throne_n that_o now_o he_o may_v in_o another_o way_n and_o under_o another_o form_n of_o idolatry_n as_o former_o i_o have_v say_v creep_v in_o again_o therefore_o he_o resign_v to_o antichrist_n and_o indeed_o his_o policy_n do_v not_o fail_v he_o for_o by_o mean_n of_o this_o beast_n he_o get_v in_o again_o yet_o now_o so_o subtle_a be_v he_o that_o all_o the_o time_n of_o the_o beast_n kingdom_n till_o just_a towards_o the_o end_n when_o the_o beast_n and_o his_o party_n be_v grow_v so_o desperate_a as_o that_o now_o they_o will_v join_v with_o the_o devil_n or_o any_o to_o uphold_v their_o cause_n he_o will_v not_o show_v himself_o what_o he_o be_v and_o therefore_o appear_v but_o very_o rare_o as_o the_o dragon_n from_o that_o day_n till_o the_o time_n of_o the_o last_o battle_n but_o rather_o still_o as_o a_o saint_n with_o antichrist_n mask_v on_o lest_o be_v discover_v his_o subject_n shall_v flinch_v from_o he_o and_o he_o be_v cast_v out_o again_o here_o be_v all_o the_o ground_n that_o ever_o i_o have_v meet_v with_o for_o that_o opinion_n which_o make_v the_o thousand_o year_n of_o satan_n bind_v and_o the_o saint_n

and_o the_o time_n betwixt_o the_o witness_n rise_v and_o the_o six_o vial_n be_v so_o short_a we_o may_v very_o well_o conclude_v that_o the_o first_o working_n among_o the_o jew_n themselves_o in_o a_o way_n of_o stir_v will_v be_v upward_o even_o as_o high_a as_o the_o time_n of_o the_o witness_n resurrection_n and_o for_o this_o reason_n because_o the_o jew_n shall_v about_o the_o time_n of_o

text_n have_v make_v a_o manifest_a distinction_n betwixt_o these_o two_o time_n 2_o becanse_o it_o be_v improper_a to_o say_v that_o christ_n witness_n against_o antichrist_n shall_v prophesy_v all_o the_o 1260_o day_n and_o yet_o be_v kill_v too_o for_o put_v case_n the_o beast_n all_o this_o time_n do_v put_v some_o to_o death_n yet_o so_o long_o as_o christ_n at_o the_o same_o time_n and_o in_o the_o same_o place_n have_v always_o other_o in_o their_o room_n his_o witness_n be_v not_o kill_v a_o man_n be_v not_o without_o witness_n though_o some_o witness_n be_v take_v away_o in_o case_n other_o stand_v up_o and_o appear_v in_o their_o room_n nay_o those_o witness_n which_o all_o the_o 1260_o day_n be_v put_v to_o death_n by_o the_o beast_n do_v most_o ominent_o in_o die_a bear_n witness_n for_o christ_n for_o to_o this_fw-mi for_o the_o truth_n be_v a_o live_a stand_a testimony_n to_o it_o that_o kill_v therefore_o can_v not_o be_v a_o kill_n as_o witness_n he_o who_o for_o truth_n sake_n love_v not_o his_o life_n to_o the_o death_n be_v even_o in_o die_v a_o most_o glorious_a witness_n of_o the_o truth_n 3_o it_o be_v say_v for_o 10._o that_o when_o the_o two_o witness_n lie_v dead_a the_o dweller_n on_o the_o earth_n rejoice_v for_o this_o reason_n because_o they_o be_v dead_a who_o torment_v they_o now_o do_v the_o dweller_n on_o the_o earth_n thus_o rejoice_v all_o the_o ●260_n day_n when_o be_v they_o then_o torment_v will_v the_o text_n bear_v it_o to_o say_v they_o be_v torment_v all_o this_o time_n and_o yet_o rejoice_v too_o this_o the_o author_n or_o upholder_n of_o this_o opinion_n must_v necessary_o assert_v nay_o why_o do_v they_o rejoice_v at_o their_o death_n why_o because_o be_v dead_a they_o fear_v no_o hurt_n from_o they_o which_o whilst_o they_o prophesy_v they_o do_v for_o they_o feel_v of_o they_o as_o ver_fw-la 5_o 6._o therefore_o their_o prophesy_a and_o kill_v must_v be_v as_o two_o distinct_a thing_n and_o so_o at_o two_o distinct_a time_n 4_o because_o how_o can_v they_o be_v witness_n all_o this_o time_n if_o dead_a do_v a_o man_n when_o he_o have_v a_o cause_n to_o be_v try_v go_v to_o dead_a man_n that_o they_o will_v stand_v witness_n for_o he_o or_o to_o live_v or_o how_o do_v they_o prophecy_n if_o dead_a can_v dead_a man_n prophecy_n or_o be_v prophesy_v man_n dead_a 5_o why_o be_v they_o say_v to_o be_v kill_v only_o in_o the_o street_n or_o one_o street_n of_o the_o great_a city_n ver_fw-la 8._o and_o not_o in_o the_o whole_a city_n see_v in_o this_o sense_n they_o have_v be_v within_o the_o 1260_o day_n more_o or_o less_o kill_v all_o over_o the_o great_a city_n i.e._n throughout_o the_o whole_a papal_a jurisdiction_n 6_o what_o difference_n will_v there_o be_v according_a to_o this_o opinion_n betwixt_o their_o be_v kill_v and_o put_v into_o grave_n if_o we_o take_v both_o for_o a_o bodily_a death_n which_o this_o opinion_n do_v 7_o and_o last_o how_o according_a to_o this_o opinion_n be_v they_o all_o the_o three_o day_n and_o a_o half_a keep_v unbury_v or_o how_o at_o the_o end_n of_o these_o three_o day_n and_o a_o half_a shall_v those_o witness_n which_o be_v kill_v rise_v again_o for_o shall_v we_o think_v thus_o that_o the_o body_n of_o saint_n martyr_v by_o divers_a mean_n and_o in_o sundry_a place_n for_o the_o space_n of_o 1260_o year_n together_o shall_v all_o that_o time_n lie_v unbury_v be_v keep_v out_o of_o grave_n and_o then_o 2._o this_o time_n expire_v life_n enter_v into_o these_o body_n and_o they_o rise_v again_o the_o text_n according_a to_o this_o interpretation_n do_v strong_o enforce_v both_o for_o if_o we_o conceive_v their_o kill_a to_o be_v corporal_a by_o the_o same_o reason_n must_v their_o burial_n and_o their_o resurrection_n also_o we_o be_v necessitate_v therefore_o from_o the_o clear_a text_n and_o reason_n itself_o to_o reject_v this_o opinion_n and_o seek_v another_o that_o therefore_o which_o be_v more_o consonant_a to_o the_o word_n and_o do_v not_o wrap_v we_o up_o in_o such_o a_o labyrinth_n of_o intricacy_n be_v to_o interpret_v the_o three_o day_n and_o a_o half_a which_o be_v the_o time_n of_o their_o be_v kill_v of_o
