reason_n have_v get_v power_n in_o man_n so_o as_o to_o be_v the_o chief_a and_o head_n of_o many_o people_n he_o may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o angel_n though_o a_o angel_n of_o darkness_n because_o he_o be_v in_o chain_n of_o darkness_n for_o the_o spirit_n of_o reason_n be_v in_o chain_n of_o darkness_n almost_o in_o all_o man_n so_o that_o all_o man_n that_o be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o devil_n and_o of_o themselves_o may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v in_o chain_n of_o darkness_n and_o in_o this_o sense_n all_o man_n that_o be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o true_a god_n and_o of_o the_o right_a devil_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o devil_n angel_n and_o so_o the_o devil_n and_o his_o angel_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v reserve_v in_o chain_n of_o darkness_n unto_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o

that_o these_o four_o angel_n be_v prepare_v to_o accomplish_v all_o this_o their_o design_n in_o a_o year_n time_n but_o these_o four_o angel_n be_v bind_v some_o certain_a time_n before_o they_o

that_o be_v bind_v before_o the_o time_n be_v not_o come_v to_o go_v forth_o now_o they_o be_v loose_v to_o slay_v the_o three_o part_n of_o man_n as_o they_o will_v willing_o have_v do_v before_o and_o for_o that_o purpose_n they_o muster_v up_o their_o army_n as_o in_o the_o 16_o verse_n john_n see_v the_o number_n of_o the_o army_n of_o the_o horseman_n and_o they_o be_v two_o hundred_o

horse_n and_o as_o for_o the_o fire_n smoke_n and_o brimstone_n that_o issue_v out_o of_o the_o rider_n mouth_n it_o signify_v a_o threefold_a destruction_n of_o man_n as_o thus_o when_o a_o man_n be_v burn_v with_o fire_n alone_o second_o a_o man_n may_v be_v smother_v with_o smoke_n so_o that_o he_o die_v and_o if_o a_o man_n be_v burn_v with_o brimstone_n that_o be_v a_o more_o terrible_a

some_o that_o be_v there_o issue_v out_o of_o their_o mouth_n a_o more_o cruel_a usage_n or_o sentence_n of_o death_n to_o some_o then_o to_o other_o so_o that_o they_o have_v a_o threefold_a way_n to_o put_v they_o to_o death_n but_o all_o of_o they_o issue_v out_o of_o their_o mouth_n only_o to_o signify_v that_o have_v a_o commission_n to_o kill_v three_o several_a way_n chap._n xxix_o so_o in_o the_o nineteenth_o verse_n for_o their_o power_n be_v in_o their_o mouth_n and_o in_o their_o tail_n for_o their_o tail_n be_v like_a unto_o serpent_n and_o have_v head_n and_o with_o they_o they_o do_v hurt_v so_o that_o the_o power_n of_o this_o great_a army_n to_o kill_v with_o fire_n and_o smoke_n and_o brimstone_n it_o be_v in_o their_o mouth_n and_o in_o their_o tail_n that_o be_v

their_o horse_n be_v so_o numerous_a and_o so_o pamper_a that_o they_o seem_v more_o like_a unto_o the_o head_n of_o so_o many_o lion_n rather_o than_o horse_n they_o be_v so_o dreadful_a and_o the_o

and_o these_o be_v in_o the_o forefront_n of_o the_o army_n and_o do_v act_v as_o if_o they_o have_v be_v lion_n and_o as_o if_o there_o have_v be_v nothing_o else_o in_o their_o mouth_n but_o fire_n
