commodity_n to_o other_o kingdom_n rome_n in_o her_o latitude_n with_o all_o her_o merchant_n and_o those_o that_o symbolize_v with_o she_o be_v here_o to_o be_v understand_v and_o that_o rome_n and_o no_o other_o be_v here_o mean_v i_o prove_v by_o these_o reason_n 1._o babylon_n be_v here_o in_o my_o text_n call_v the_o great_a city_n and_o in_o s._n john_n time_n what_o be_v the_o great_a city_n but_o rome_n itself_o for_o suppose_v a_o man_n be_v in_o france_n and_o shall_v hear_v another_o say_v that_o such_o and_o such_o a_o work_n be_v to_o be_v do_v in_o the_o great_a city_n who_o will_v

not_o know_v that_o he_o mean_v london_n in_o s._n john_n time_n the_o roman_a empire_n prevail_v the_o great_a city_n be_v rome_n itself_o and_o therefore_o the_o holy_a ghost_n say_v that_o babylon_n be_v the_o great_a city_n say_v express_o that_o by_o babylon_n be_v mean_v rome_n 2._o this_o city_n and_o whore_n of_o babylon_n be_v say_v to_o sit_v upon_o a_o beast_n revel._n 17._o 7._o now_o if_o we_o look_v into_o the_o book_n of_o daniel_n whereby_o much_o of_o the_o revelation_n be_v to_o be_v interpret_v we_o shall_v find_v mention_n make_v of_o four_o beast_n to_o

of_o the_o grecian_n and_o the_o four_o of_o the_o roman_n now_o before_o john_n time_n the_o three_o first_o beast_n be_v dead_a and_o go_v the_o four_o and_o last_o only_o remain_v the_o roman_a empire_n and_o what_o city_n or_o people_n have_v so_o ride_v the_o roman_a empire_n as_o rome_n have_v do_v 3._o s._n john_n tell_v we_o that_o this_o beast_n that_o carry_v the_o woman_n this_o city_n be_v to_o have_v seven_o head_n and_o ten_o horn_n revel._n 17._o 7._o which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n interpret_v in_o the_o same_o chapter_n say_v these_o seven_o head_n be_v seven_o mountain_n

into_o now_o though_o some_o think_v while_o they_o look_v through_o false_a perspective_n that_o they_o see_v some_o other_o city_n sit_v upon_o seven_o hill_n yet_o let_v any_o man_n show_v we_o these_o three_o meet_v together_o in_o any_o other_o city_n who_o know_v any_o other_o city_n who_o building_n have_v be_v lay_v on_o seven_o hill_n so_o famous_a that_o the_o city_n itself_o be_v

a_o true_a church_n be_v sodom_n a_o true_a church_n be_v egypt_n a_o true_a church_n rome_n be_v sodom_n egypt_n and_o true_o babylon_n oh_o what_o abundance_n of_o hurt_n and_o mischief_n have_v this_o dangerous_a position_n do_v that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v a_o true_a church_n i_o myself_o have_v know_v some_o that_o have_v relinquish_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o write_v against_o she_o who_o again_o stagger_v in_o their_o faith_n i_o wish_v i_o may_v not_o say_v they_o be_v revolt_v when_o they_o see_v this_o opinion_n countenance_v and_o publish_v by_o great_a

she_o as_o for_o the_o church_n of_o england_n it_o be_v a_o schismatical_a heretical_a church_n wherein_o no_o salvation_n be_v to_o be_v have_v the_o safe_a way_n therefore_o be_v to_o join_v with_o we_o where_o according_a to_o all_o man_n both_o we_o and_o you_o you_o may_v be_v sure_a of_o your_o salvation_n and_o indeed_o the_o argument_n be_v very_o strong_a and_o home_n if_o the_o premise_n
