13.7_o 371_o a_o three_o argument_n to_o prove_v antichrist_n this_o beast_n be_v from_o his_o identity_n with_o the_o 2d_o beast_n which_o all_o acknowledge_v to_o be_v antichrist_n for_o antichrist_n do_v not_o always_o appear_v in_o one_o shape_n but_o sometime_o in_o one_o shape_n and_o sometime_o in_o another_o sometime_o as_o dominus_fw-la in_o temporalibus_fw-la and_o so_o he_o

the_o elder_a 372._o this_o opinion_n may_v not_o seem_v improbable_a that_o both_o the_o 2_o beast_n hold_v out_o one_o antichrist_n for_o the_o first_o reason_n be_v one_o elephant_n propter_fw-la

hold_v out_o antichrist_n than_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v not_o at_o all_o set_v down_o the_o term_n of_o antichrist_n continuance_n in_o the_o world_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o whole_a

we_o do_v not_o find_v any_o such_o express_a term_n of_o time_n about_o the_o second_o beast_n how_o long_o he_o shall_v continue_v as_o to_o that_o number_n of_o the_o beast_n 666._o i_o have_v show_v at_o large_a ut_fw-la supra_fw-la that_o it_o can_v hold_v out_o the_o number_n of_o his_o beginning_n nor_o of_o his_o end_v which_o a_o little_a arithmetic_n or_o human_a wisdom_n may_v
