john_n say_v he_o see_v another_o sign_n great_a and_o marvellous_a it_o be_v say_v to_o be_v another_o sign_n because_o he_o speak_v in_o the_o chapter_n before_o much_o of_o that_o temporal_a babylon_n with_o the_o plague_n and_o fall_v of_o it_o but_o in_o this_o fifteen_o chapter_n these_o plague_n have_v relation_n only_o to_o this_o mystery_n babylon_n therefore_o say_v to_o be_v another_o sign_n in_o heaven_n great_a and_o marvellous_a it_o be_v great_a and_o marvellous_a indeed_o for_o he_o see_v the_o utter_a destruction_n and_o end_n of_o the_o world_n therefore_o call_v they_o the_o seven_o last_o plague_n before_o upon_o the_o other_o babylon_n but_o these_o seven_o plague_n be_v the_o last_o plague_n that_o be_v to_o be_v pour_v out_o upon_o the_o earth_n therefore_o call_v by_o the_o spirit_n marvellous_a because_o the_o whole_a wrath_n or_o final_a wrath_n of_o god_n be_v fill_v up_o or_o finish_v upon_o the_o whore_n beast_n false_a prophet_n and_o

the_o saint_n be_v call_v by_o the_o spirit_n the_o belove_a city_n so_o that_o this_o belove_a city_n must_v needs_o be_v compass_v about_o because_o the_o saint_n do_v live_v in_o the_o four_o

the_o beast_n have_v that_o arise_v out_o of_o the_o sea_n further_o the_o spirit_n of_o revelation_n in_o john_n do_v include_v all_o evil_a king_n and_o evil_a magistrate_n into_o one_o evil_a beast_n show_v that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o evil_a beast_n in_o who_o the_o evil_a spirit_n do_v reign_v in_o persecute_v man_n for_o conscience_n sake_n because_o they_o will_v not_o worship_v the_o beast_n image_n so_o that_o you_o that_o can_v discern_v between_o the_o spirit_n of_o reason_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o faith_n for_o these_o two_o spirit_n lie_v both_o hide_v in_o their_o

these_o two_o spirit_n do_v work_v or_o operate_v in_o man_n man_n come_v to_o be_v a_o good_a beast_n or_o a_o evil_a beast_n so_o that_o who_o ever_o do_v discern_v clear_o between_o the_o two_o seed_n may_v read_v or_o count_v the_o number_n of_o the_o good_a beast_n and_o the_o number_n of_o the_o evil_a beast_n for_o this_o i_o say_v they_o be_v both_o but_o two_o man_n that_o be_v to_o

all_o other_o of_o that_o seed_n to_o do_v well_o and_o to_o worship_n god_n aright_o as_o david_n do_v and_o not_o to_o persecute_v man_n for_o conscience_n sake_n so_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o spirit_n of_o reason_n the_o devil_n it_o run_v through_o the_o line_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o reason_n and_o cause_v evil_a king_n and_o evil_a head-magistrate_n and_o other_o to_o do_v injustice_n and_o to_o worship_v a_o false_a god_n and_o persecute_v for_o conscience_n sake_n as_o king_n ahab_n do_v so_o that_o all_o good_a king_n and_o head-magistrate_n who_o have_v be_v guide_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n though_o many_o thousand_o of_o they_o they_o may_v be_v count_v by_o the_o spirit_n but_o one_o good_a beast_n because_o that_o one_o good_a spirit_n of_o god_n do_v act_n in_o they_o while_o they_o be_v here_o in_o this_o world_n so_o likewise_o though_o there_o have_v be_v many_o thousand_o evil_a king_n and_o evil_a head-magistrate_n yet_o they_o may_v be_v count_v by_o
