raw_a and_o dough-baked_a fancy_n that_o be_v scatter_v in_o his_o annotation_n on_o the_o apocalypse_n i_o proceed_v to_o his_o advertisement_n where_o i_o will_v use_v all_o possible_a brevity_n that_o can_v be_v i_o have_v already_o note_v out_o of_o the_o first_o page_n how_o unreasonable_o according_a to_o his_o own_o confession_n some_o forty_o year_n ago_o he_o betake_v himself_o to_o the_o study_n of_o the_o apocalypse_n i_o doubt_v too_o soon_o say_v he_o and_o i_o do_v not_o doubt_v but_o too_o negligent_o but_o then_o say_v he_o i_o read_v brightman_n napier_n pareus_n etc._n etc._n and_o after_o that_o mede_n potter_n and_o many_o more_o beside_o dounhamus_fw-la de_fw-la antichristo_fw-la broughton_n and_o other_o such_o and_o also_o the_o answerer_n of_o bellarmine_n he_o converse_v with_o his_o fellow-labourer_n mr._n stevens_n during_o the_o schism_n against_o the_o church_n of_o england_n who_o have_v write_v of_o it_o and_o be_v much_o upon_o it_o in_o his_o discourse_n but_o i_o dare_v not_o be_v draw_v to_o a_o deep_a study_n of_o it_o and_o when_o since_o i_o read_v mr._n durham_n dr._n more_n etc._n etc._n and_o grotius_n and_o dr._n hammond_n and_o many_o annotator_n i_o confess_v despair_n and_o more_o needful_a business_n make_v i_o do_v it_o but_o superficial_o this_o be_v his_o own_o account_n of_o his_o preparedness_n to_o write_v on_o the_o apocalypse_n when_o he_o have_v scamble_v through_o a_o multitude_n of_o author_n careless_o and_o superficial_o he_o be_v for_o any_o certain_a sense_n of_o the_o main_a and_o most_o weighty_a vision_n of_o that_o divine_a write_n as_o unresolved_a of_o the_o truth_n of_o thing_n as_o when_o he_o first_o begin_v so_o that_o have_v nothing_o to_o deliver_v to_o satisfy_v the_o understanding_n reader_n or_o confirm_v the_o faith_n of_o they_o that_o want_v a_o guide_n yet_o as_o if_o he_o labour_v under_o the_o scripturient_n disease_n even_o to_o a_o tenesmus_n can_v not_o forbear_v to_o write_v on_o the_o apocalypse_n though_o he_o have_v nothing_o to_o write_v wherefore_o according_a to_o his_o own_o confession_n the_o case_n stand_v thus_o that_o his_o mind_n want_v those_o faculty_n which_o in_o the_o bodily_a nourishment_n answer_v to_o the_o concoctive_a and_o expulsive_a faculty_n which_o secernes_fw-la that_o which_o be_v exerementitious_a from_o what_o be_v good_a nourishment_n he_o want_v i_o say_v this_o secern_a faculty_n be_v not_o edify_v by_o the_o read_n or_o rather_o gutle_v up_o so_o many_o book_n as_o he_o have_v hasty_o read_v be_v not_o

so_o he_o have_v put_v they_o out_o all_o alike_o or_o rather_o vomit_v they_o up_o altogether_o without_o any_o digestion_n or_o concoction_n contrary_a to_o the_o boast_n of_o that_o considerate_a

they_o publish_v to_o the_o world_n this_o i_o declare_v to_o the_o end_n that_o no_o man_n may_v be_v so_o foolish_a as_o to_o think_v the_o apocalypse_n real_o the_o less_o intelligible_a for_o r._n

certainty_n of_o revealment_n be_v the_o measure_n of_o the_o frame_n of_o the_o vision_n of_o the_o apocalypse_n and_o as_o they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v understand_v by_o the_o lazy_a perfunctory_a
