reason_n the_o root_n which_o do_v send_v forth_o refresh_v thought_n motion_n and_o action_n many_o time_n the_o seed_n of_o reason_n do_v this_o which_o be_v as_o a_o river_n of_o water_n to_o

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

of_o god_n be_v compare_v to_o fire_n and_o to_o water_n as_o christ_n shall_v baptize_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o with_o fire_n and_o christ_n will_v give_v every_o true_a believer_n water_n

the_o earth_n to_o persecute_v the_o saint_n this_o devil_n with_o all_o the_o seed_n who_o have_v fight_v under_o his_o banner_n though_o in_o several_a form_n and_o manner_n he_o and_o they_o with_o the_o beast_n and_o false_a prophet_n with_o all_o their_o adherent_n shall_v be_v cast_v into_o a_o lake_n of_o fire_n and_o brimstone_n where_o they_o shall_v be_v torment_v for_o ever_o and_o

of_o heaven_n and_o devour_v they_o etc._n etc._n so_o that_o this_o chapter_n be_v but_o a_o rehearsal_n of_o what_o be_v say_v before_o in_o the_o 18_o and_o 19_o chapter_n both_o of_o the_o destruction_n of_o mystery_n babylon_n and_o of_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o saint_n yet_o i_o think_v it_o something_o necessary_a to_o open_v the_o meaning_n of_o gog_n and_o magog_n because_o i_o have_v not_o meet_v with_o those_o word_n before_o neither_o have_v speak_v of_o they_o in_o that_o book_n aforesaid_a but_o as_o for_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o matter_n in_o this_o 20_o chapter_n i_o have_v say_v as_o much_o as_o need_v be_v say_v of_o it_o in_o one_o place_n or_o other_o in_o this_o treatise_n and_o in_o the_o interpretation_n of_o the_o eleven_o of_o the_o revelation_n and_o to_o repeat_v one_o thing_n twice_o over_z will_v be_v needless_a and_o as_o for_o the_o chief_a head_n contain_v in_o the_o 21_o 22_o chapter_n i_o have_v open_v they_o in_o the_o say_a interpretation_n of_o the_o eleven_o of_o the_o revelation_n so_o that_o i_o shall_v interpret_v a_o little_a what_o be_v mean_v by_o those_o word_n of_o john_n revelation_n the_o 22_o chapter_n 18_o 19_o verse_n and_o so_o conclude_v this_o epistle_n chap._n lxxxi_o these_o word_n of_o john_n have_v be_v a_o occasion_n of_o many_o persecute_v and_o ignorant_a man_n and_o woman_n spirit_n to_o persecute_v and_o rail_v against_o the_o pure_a truth_n that_o ever_o be_v declare_v and_o against_o the_o true_a messenger_n who_o god_n have_v choose_v and_o send_v who_o he_o have_v endue_v with_o the_o spirit_n of_o revelation_n and_o interpretation_n of_o scripture_n more_o than_o all_o the_o man_n in_o the_o world_n beside_o in_o that_o when_o thing_n have_v be_v declare_v and_o scripture_n interpret_v beyond_o the_o common_a sense_n that_o learned_a man_n have_v declare_v and_o interpret_v they_o have_v say_v with_o great_a anger_n and_o zeal_n that_o we_o have_v either_o add_v to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n or_o else_o we_o have_v diminish_v from_o it_o therefore_o to_o satisfy_v the_o reader_n i_o shall_v open_v how_o a_o man_n may_v be_v say_v to_o add_v unto_o the_o pprophecy_n of_o this_o book_n of_o john_n revelation_n and_o how_o he_o may_v be_v say_v to_o diminish_v or_o take_v away_o the_o word_n of_o this_o pprophecy_n of_o this_o book_n the_o word_n of_o john_n be_v these_o verse_n 18._o for_o i_o testify_v unto_o every_o man_n that_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o the_o pprophecy_n of_o this_o book_n if_o any_o man_n shall_v add_v unto_o these_o thing_n god_n shall_v add_v unto_o he_o the_o plague_n that_o be_v write_v in_o this_o book_n verse_n 19_o and_o if_o any_o man_n shall_v take_v away_o from_o the_o word_n of_o the_o book_n of_o this_o pprophecy_n god_n shall_v take_v away_o his_o part_n out_o of_o the_o book_n of_o life_n and_o out_o of_o the_o holy_a city_n and_o from_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v write_v in_o this_o book_n i_o will_v have_v the_o reader_n to_o mind_n and_o he_o may_v know_v whether_o a_o man_n do_v add_v unto_o this_o book_n or_o take_v from_o it_o for_o this_o be_v to_o be_v mind_v that_o who_o ever_o do_v undertake_v to_o be_v a_o minister_n of_o christ_n without_o a_o commission_n from_o he_o or_o shall_v undertake_v to_o give_v the_o interpretation_n of_o the_o scripture_n without_o have_v the_o gift_n of_o interpretation_n which_o gift_n he_o can_v have_v except_o he_o have_v a_o commission_n from_o god_n or_o from_o he_o that_o do_v receive_v it_o from_o god_n for_o how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o any_o man_n shall_v give_v true_a interpretation_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o of_o that_o book_n of_o the_o revelation_n of_o saint_n john_n and_o yet_o not_o know_v the_o true_a god_n nor_o the_o

they_o only_a that_o do_v add_v unto_o this_o book_n and_o they_o only_a that_o do_v take_v from_o it_o they_o may_v be_v say_v to_o add_v to_o it_o because_o they_o give_v this_o and_o that_o
