happen'd in the same Intervals of time yet many of them were attended with different consequences others with very â—ike Events as will appear from the ensuing â—ines Quest. 29. Wherefore did Iohn say at the opening of every of the â—our first Seals that he heard one of the Beasts say * Come see why Come and see except it were to shew us that the Interval of every Seal the seventh only excepted comprehends the space of a mystical Hour viz. 333â…“ Years For is not the Face of some Animal stirr'd up or awaken'd in every Mystical Hour which may be therefore said to be on the Watch Veniâ— vide Come and sâ—e Quest. 30. If the Events which were to come to pass and are in great measure elapsed from the time of our Lord's Ascension to this present day do better answer to the Intervals of 333â…“ Years assigned to each of the first six Seals than to any other whatsoever doth not this elegantly prove the truth of the said Intervals Quest. â—1 What may we understand by Iohn's Vision of a White Horse and him that sat thereon who held a Bow in his Hand and went out at the opening of the fâ—â—st Seal conquering and to conquer Is not he â€ He that sat thereon that sat thereon our Lord Jesus Christ And doth not the * The White Horse white Horse mean hâ—s Ministers arayed in the white Robes of Righteousness and inward Holiness bringing the Gospel unto Men viz. the glad Tidings oâ— Pâ—ace â€ What was the Bow in his Hand and doth not the Bow in his Hand signify the Power and Energy of his Heavâ—nly Gospel and Doctrine Which Gospel indeed in those Primitive times Conquer`d many thousands of Men and subjected them to the Obedience and Faith of Christ. From the Year of Christs Biâ—th 366 And moreover did not this puâ—e and exceeding prevalent Dispensation of the Gospel remain on Earth at least the space of 333 Years and â…“ after ouâ— Lords's Ascension or from his â—â—carnation 366 which Interval indeed reacht beyoâ—d Constantiâ—e and his Sons nay beyond Iulian the Apostate Iordan Valens Valentinian and indeed the power and purity of the Evangelical Doctrin did still prevail in the World notwithstanding the sottish Superstitions foolish Traditions and wrangling debates of some concerning Arrius and his Disciples Quest. 32. What may we understand by Iohn's Vision of a red Horse What the red Horse is at the opening of the second â€ The second Seal Seal Is it not Soldiers and Captains of Armies and such as stir up terrible Wars in the World to the shedding oâ— much Blood and who is he that rides upon this red Horse * He that rides upon the Horse but some great Angel or Daemon who by God's permission inspires and prompts Men to Bloody Wars which Wars doubtless came chiefly in those parts of the World where the Gospel had been Preached and were sent by the most holâ— God as a Just Punishment on Men for dispising the Gospel And indeed they who delivered the faithful Servants of God to various kinds of Death in the first Interval because they believed in God and Christ are slain themselves together with their Children by others in the second Interval God punishing the Iniquity of the Fathers uâ—on the Children even to the third and fourth Generation Besides do not the events or historical effects plainly answer to this second Interval to wit from the Year of our Saviour Christ's Resurrection 333 to the 666 or from the Year of his Birth 366 to the Year 700 for within that Interval of time was not the whole Westâ—rn Empire miserably torn and at last almost totally erased and aboliâ—hed in the said Interval Moreover also Rome her self as it were â—he Empress of the World was often taken and after some Revolutions she was burnt within the same Interval bâ—t the chief Authors of these terrible Wars werâ— the Goâ—hs Vandals Hunnes and Persians with thâ—iâ— Kings and Leaders Then about the latter end of this Interval viz. about 600 and odd Years after the Birth of Christ comes Mahomeâ— with his followâ—rs who were at that time call'd Saracens and these indeed were the Authors of dreadful Wâ—rs in many places Quest. 33. What â—s to be understood by Iohn`s Vision of a black What he â—lack Horse wasâ— â—orâ—e and him that sat thereon holding a Balance in his Hand when the third Seal was to be opened Is not teâ—rible Famine hereby signified and indeed that which is natural anâ— exteâ—nal as well as that which is spiâ—itâ—al anâ— internal And indeed both â—f these compleatly happened within the third Interval of time to wit from the year of Christ's Resurrection 666 to the year 1000 as the History of those times do clearly evince for in this Interval there was a great Spiritual Fâ—mine or Want of the Celestial Bread of Life and the time of this Interval was the same with that of the Church of Pergamus above recited within which Interval God promised to feed the Faithâ—ul with hidden Manna Rev. 2.17 for all that whole Interval was full of Ignorance in the extremity of Darkness and very few famous Men flourished in it Lastly as to what pertains to natural or outward Famine that indeed in a manner continually attends horrid and bloody Wars Quest. 34. What is meant by the * The pale Horse palâ— Horse and him that sate thereon whose name was Death whom Hell followed having power to kill with the Sword with Famine and with Death and with the Beasâ—s of the Earth which was to come to pass when the fourâ—h Seal â€ The 4 th Seal open'd was opened Doth it not seem to be the whole and entire Body of all the Wick that have gone before with Addition of many others For what doth the killing with the Sword signifie but Wâ—r Scarcitâ— and Famine And was noâ— Death which was the name of him that sat thereon the Deviâ— himself whom Hell followed Lastly what is signified by the Beasts of the â—arth but foul and unclean Spirits or Terrestrial Demons which miserably beguile and deceive the Ignorant and Unthinking Mobile with their Cheats and Delusions For in Holy Writ the Devil and unclean Spirits are called Beasts of the Field or Beasts of the Earth as it is said of the Serpent in Genesis that he was more subtile than any Beast of the Field which doubtless could not be understood of common Beasts Moreover doth not the event or Historical effect apparently answer this Interâ—val viz. from the Year * From the year of the Resurrection 1000 to 1333. oâ— Christ's Resurrection 1000 to the year 1333 within which time the foulest Superstitions and most detestable Idolatry abounded among Christians falsly so called also the Pride Covetousness and Luxury of the Antichristian Clergy within this Interval exceeded all bounds besides many damnable Opinions and Hereâ—ies were preached and published by the Antichrisâ—ian Emissaries to wit the

to 4â—0â— The interval of the first Trumpet from the year of the World 4180 to 444â— 89. And from the Nativity of Christ â—hus 1 218 2 478 3 738 4 998 5 1258 6 1518 7 1778 Â 2038 The interval of the first Trumpet begins at the year of Christ's Nâ—tivity 218 which â—s the 184th year from Christ's Resurrection which number â—â—4 answeâ—s to half an hour â—ithin which time the Saints ofâ—ered many prayers to God by â—esus Christ. Revel 8.3.4.5 90. Now the said Events plainly answer â—o those Intervals At the sound of the â—â—rst Trumpet there followâ—d Haâ—l and â—ire mixt with Blood The Interval of his Trumpet is from the year of Christ`s Nativity 218 to the year 478 within â—hich space of time the Roman Empire â—â—gan to be vexed with grievous Wars At â—â—e â—â—und of the second Trumpet a great â—â—â—ning Mountain was cast into the Sea â—nd tâ—e tâ—iâ—d part of the Sea it selâ— waâ—â—â—rn'd into Blood the interval of this â—rumpet is from the year 478 to the 738 â—iâ—hin which interval or space of time â—â—â—re was most cruel and hideous Wars in ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰ Roman Empire At the sound of the â—â—iâ—d Trumpet a great Star fell from Heaâ—en upon those that were living and upâ—n the fountains of Waters and burned like a Lamp by reason whereof the waters were made bitter and killed many The interval of this Trumpet is from the year â—â—8 to the year 998 by this Starâ— without all peradventure the Pope oâ— Rome is to be understood who within thiâ— interval advanced himself above all otheâ— Bishops whom he corrupted with himselâ— At the sound of the fourth Trumpet froâ— the year 998 to the year 1258 the thirâ— part of the Sun Moon and Stars waâ— smitten and daâ—kened This doubtleâ— signifies that the Emperour and Empereâ— together with the Nobility and Princes oâ— the Empire should be very much eclipseâ— and darkned within this interval and thâ— too by the power of the Pope who iâ—â—he same interval set himself above the â—â—â—perour 91. When the fifth Angel sounded ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰ Trumpet a Star fell fâ—om Heaven aâ—â— to him was given the key of the boâ—tâ—â—â—less pit c. And when the bottomless ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰ was open'd and a smoak ascended froâ— thence and from that â—moak procâ—edeâ— locusts uâ—on the Earth which câ—uelly vâ—â—â—ed and tormented Mankind câ—rtâ—â—inly ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰ all these is meant the School Men and Dâ—â—ctors who have so miserably gaâ—l'd aâ—â— disquieted Men with their pâ—rvâ—rse Opiâ—â—nions and Controversies and infested theâ— with their sharp and venemous stings that many choose rather to die than to live and this happened â—rom the year 1258 to 1518 but their chief time was 5 Months viz. 150 years to wit from the year 1368 to 15â—8 92. Lastly at the sound of tâ—e sixth Trumpet the four Angels bound at the River Euphrates are loosed which doubtless signifies the vast and mighty powâ—r of the Turks which they had prepared 390 yeaâ—s ago that is from the year 1228 and poured in upon Eâ—rope like an inundation to slay the third paâ—t of Mankind as it were the third part of the World and this began from the year 1518 whosoever doubts oâ— the truth hereof let him consult the Turkâ—sh Hiâ—â—oâ—â— and he will find how great success the Turk has had in Eurâ—pe and what progress he hath made â—rom that time to this very day 93. The interâ—als of the Seals and Trumpets being known the mysteâ—y of the seven Phials with the intervals oâ— every one of them unsolds and displays it self 94. For the interval of the last Trumpet comprehends thâ— intervalâ— of all â—he seven Phials and the interval oâ— each Pâ—ial contains 3â— years 9â— Therefore the intervals of the Phiâ—â—s are thus computed The Interval of the first Phial from the Year 1518 to the Year 1558 1 And so of all the rest to the seventh 1592 2 1629 3 1666 4 1703 5 1740 6 1777 7 96. Now the event of these things wonderfully answers those Intervals for in the Year 1518 that is according to the vulgar Computation in the year 1515 which if we believe Uscherus fails of the true Computation three or four Years Luther was rais'd up who was as it were the first Phial poured out on the Earth of the Antichristian World for he did as it were sensibly touch the Kingdom of Antichrist from the top to the bottom again From the year 1558 to the year 1595 the second Phial was poured out for then the whole Sea of the Antichristian Worâ—d became as the Blood of the Slain and thence began fierce and bloody Wars almost in all parts of the Antichristian Kingdom so that the very Sea seem'd to be dyed with Blood From the year 1592 to the year 1692 the third Phial was poured out upon the Rivers and Fountains of Water and they were turn'd into Blood And this also answers to the said Interval for certain Dukes and Noble-men were kill'd with the Sword under that Interval Again from the 1629 to the year 1666 the fourth Phial was pour'd out upon the Son of Antichrist because in that Interval Jesus Châ—ist the Son of Righteouâ—ness shone clearly in the Hearts of many which scorcht and burnt up those Men who had the mark of the Beast And from the year 1666 to the year 1703 the fifth Phial is poured out upon the Throne of the Beast which very thing is already begun wherefore we joyfully expect his Ruin and Downfal till the aforesaid year 1703. The effusion of the sixth Phial hath reâ—pect to the Slaughter and Destruction oâ— the Turks to make way for the Kings of the East that is the Iews and Israelites to return into their own Country Lastly the effusion of the seventh Phials bring utter destruction to the Kingdom of Antichrist and all the Enemies of the Gospel Babylon is utterly overthrown and New-Ierusalem appears as a Bride adorn'd for her Husband 97. But it remains that we explain what the four Beasts and 24. Elders are By four Beasts t is meant the whole Assembly of the Saints and term'd four from their four great Revolutions aforeâ—mention'd and likened to four Beasts And by the 24 Elders are undeâ—stood the twelve Prophâ—â—â— and â—welve Apostles of Christ who are thosâ— Pâ—ophets in the Law in the second Book of Esdras Chap. 1. where God expresly promised and nominated them together with Abraham Isaac and Iacob for Captains and Leaders to the Iewish and Israelâ—tish People when the Kingdom of God shall be restored to them 98. First of all therefore the Prophets shall be born into the World in the beginning of the Millenium who are the Captains and Ring leaders to all that shall be born afterwards and the Apostles shall be the last of all who shall remain on Earth to the coming of Christ. 99. But as touching Abraham Isaac and Iacob they are of an higher rank than the rest whether Prophets or Apostles 100. Moreover it is worth our diligent enquiry whether Isaac be

meaning of the Locusts proceeding from the Smoak upon the Earth Is not this some evil Angel or Genius to whom permission was given to open the Infernal Pit it self whereby he set at liberty a great multitude of lying and seducing Spirits and sent 'em into the World to deceive all such as had not the Seal of God in their Foreheads And doth not this Interval or State of Affairs very aptly agree with that vast multitude of Scholars and orders of Monks that mightily swarm'd within this Interval to wit from the year of Christ 1254 to the year 1514 and most intolerably vex'd and tormented the Conscience of many with the pungent Stings and Thorns of their School-Debates and of Rank were chieâ—ly Thomas Aquinas Bonaventure Henricus Gandavensis Iohn of Paris Iohn Dun a Scotch-man Durandus Occamus â— with many others who lived within this Interval For tho' some notable Sayings may be found among them yet were they miserably deceived in many other things by thoseâ— unclean Spirits and Daemons and wherefore are those Locusts said to have Faces as it were the Faces of Men but to signifie the subtilty of wit which seemed to be in them And finally What do their Hairs like the Hairs of Women denote Is it not that perswasive way of reasoning by which they draw Pâ—oselytes to themselves And whereas they had Teeth as it were the Teeth of Lyons this intimates that they were like Lyons in fierceness to destroy and tear in pieces all that dissented from them Quest. 50. Wherefore is it said that there was power given to these Locusts not to kill Men but only to torment them with their Stings Is it not hereby meant that these Locusts were not Soldiers that fought themselves with a carnal weapon but only certain orders of Scholars Monks and Friars who with their peâ—nicious Doctrineâ— ambiguous Qâ—estions and Disputations miserably divided and peâ—plex'd the Souls and Consciences of Men insomuch that it is said that it should come to pass in those days Men should seek Death and shâ—uld not find it and should dâ—sire to die and Dâ—aâ—h should â—â—y from them Quest. 51. Why is it said these Locusts â—hould have power to hurt Men five Months The time of the Locusts five Months Doth it â—llude to the usual time of their â—ontinuance or rather unto â—ome certain Mystery for we are to underâ—tand that those Locusts were to â—ontinue â— 5 â— parts of the whole â—â—me wherein the mystery of Iâ—â—quity was to prevail viz. 520 ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰ even as it were to the end of ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰ sixâ—h Trumpet which contains â—â—e Interval of two Trumpets Quâ—st 52. What are those â—ngels which were loosed at â—â—e gâ—eat River Euphrates What the Angels are which are bâ—und at Euphrates â—ithin the Interval of the sixth Trumpet viz. from the year of Christ's â—irth 1514 to the year 1774 Are they â—ot certain powerful Angels deâ—uted Goâ—ernors or Guardians over the Provinces of â—â—e Earth bordering on the Riveâ— Euâ—hrates And what are those Horse-men â—â—e number whereof was twenty thousand â—â—mes ten thousand Are they not Turks â—or these inhabit the Provinces situated aâ—out the River Euphrates who within the â—â—xth Interval under which we now are viz. â—â—om the year 1514 powerfully invaded â—urope the third part of the Eastern Hemiâ—â—here and slew many thousands of Christians so called for indeed they were not all true Christians which maâ— be said to be the third part of Men. And are not the Guns which the Turks used in their Wars against the Christiaâ—â— described heâ—e which being but of a laâ—e Invention were noâ— found out before the Inâ—eâ—val of the sixth Trumpet which kill Men with Fire Brimstone and Smoak seeming to flow out of the Horses moâ—ths tho' it proceeds from the mouths of the Guns Again do not these Horses Allegorically signifie Empire and Dominion And whereas the best part of the Interval of this sixth Trumpet is not as yet begun neither will end till the Year 1774 if therefore those Christians tho' falsly so call'd do not Repent must they not expect a â—artâ—â—r Stroak and a more fatal Blow from those Armies of Horse-men And eâ—pecially such as arâ— guilty of abominable Idolatry and worship Devils and Idols of Gold Silver Brass Stone and Wood as chap. 9. v. 20. has it And why is it said that those four Angels were ready at aâ— Hour and a Day and a Month and a Yâ—aâ— Was it not to signiâ—ie that the Poweâ— of the Turks was in a continual readiness for near 391 years ago and increased before the Interval of the sixth Trumpet as may be gathered from History CHAP. X. QUest 53. Doth not the whole tenth Chapter of the Revelaâ—ions and from the beginning of the eleventh Chaâ— to verse the fifteenth contâ—in the â—ffects or events of the sixth Trâ—mâ—et viz. from 1514 to the Year 15â—4 From Anâ— 1514 tâ— 1574 And is not the mighâ—â— Angel whom Iohn saw coming down from Heaven c. aâ—d â—olding a little Book in his Hand the Aâ—gel of the Philadelphian Church afore mention'd whose Interval begins at tâ—e Year of Christ's Nativity 1700 1â—00 And do not the Intervalâ— of â—he seven Thunders also The 7 Thundeâ—â— belong unto the sixth Trumpet or some part thereof And whereas Iohn wâ—s â—â—â—â—manded to conceal what the seven Thuâ—ders had uttered will it not be gâ—eat Presumption for any one to attemâ—t tâ— reveal it before its due time For â—ow can any one unfold them before they are â—â—vealed Quest. 54. Wherefore was it said â—o Iohn after that he had eaten the â—oâ—k that he must Prophesie again before many People Nations Tongues and Kâ—ngs must he not live again within this Intâ—â—â—â—al viz. before the Year 1774 And therefore will he not belong to the 144000 that were Sealed who shall be the first Fruits of the first Resurrection above-cited CHAP.
