the_o primitive_a church_n when_o saint_n john_n write_v those_o word_n that_o they_o be_v antechristes_n they_o be_v know_v to_o be_v saint_n and_o holy_a martyr_n for_o some_o age_n together_o if_o this_o i_o say_v be_v grant_v then_o it_o follow_v that_o all_o these_o man_n jangling_n in_o book_n and_o pulpit_n against_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n to_o prove_v they_o antechristes_n fale_v to_o

antechristes_n in_o this_o sense_n as_o forerunner_n of_o true_a antechriste_n and_o contrary_a to_o christ_n neither_o be_v there_o any_o thing_n peculiar_a to_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n though_o we_o shall_v confess_v they_o to_o be_v never_o so_o wicked_a in_o life_n but_o the_o very_a truth_n be_v that_o principal_o and_o above_o other_o in_o this_o sense_n the_o name_n of_o antechriste_n be_v proper_a to_o heretic_n and_o sectary_n who_o under_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n do_v impugn_v christ_n and_o leave_v the_o common_a receive_a union_n of_o faith_n do_v find_v out_o contrary_a

and_o nicholaites_n then_o new_o spring_v up_o and_o for_o this_o cause_n also_o do_v he_o say_v antichristi_fw-la facti_fw-la sunt_fw-la they_o be_v make_v antichristes_n and_o not_o bear_v so_o for_o that_o by_o their_o own_o malice_n they_o make_v themselves_o such_o in_o depart_v from_o union_n and_o now_o whether_o pope_n or_o the_o protestant_n do_v participate_v more_o of_o this_o quality_n of_o heretical_a antichriste_n by_o break_v union_n in_o faith_n and_o religion_n from_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o christendom_n i_o leave_v to_o the_o discreet_a reader_n to_o ponder_v and_o thus_o much_o may_v serve_v about_o call_v the_o pope_n antichriste_n as_o for_o rome_n babylon_n whether_o it_o be_v babylon_n or_o no_o little_a import_v it_o to_o the_o matter_n we_o have_v in_o hand_n so_o we_o agree_v in_o the_o sense_n for_o not_o only_a saint_n john_n in_o his_o apocalips_n but_o saint_n peter_n also_o in_o his_o epistle_n do_v call_v rome_n babylon_n and_o we_o deny_v it_o not_o for_o it_o be_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o great_a confusion_n of_o iniquity_n idolatry_n and_o persecution_n that_o the_o infidel_n emperor_n use_v and_o be_v to_o use_v against_o god_n saint_n but_o that_o either_o saint_n john_n or_o saint_n peter_n do_v call_v be_v babylon_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o christian_n that_o be_v in_o it_o at_o that_o time_n i_o think_v sir_n
