sackcloth-profession_n of_o saint_n in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o little_a horn_n the_o beast_n and_o whorish_a spirit_n or_o as_o i_o may_v say_v judas_n spirit_n of_o self-love_n and_o hypocrisy_n

from_o he_o that_o these_o two_o be_v his_o witness_n in_o the_o four_o five_o and_o six_o verse_n of_o that_o seven_o chapter_n of_o the_o revelation_n in_o the_o four_o verse_n these_o two_o

society_n of_o saint_n as_o st._n john_n write_v but_o in_o this_o place_n 12._o the_o light_n that_o be_v hold_v forth_o be_v this_o eternal_a council_n of_o god_n that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v this_o

visible_o see_v upon_o the_o earth_n in_o the_o day_n and_o hour_n of_o his_o suffering_n or_o time_n of_o his_o sackcloth_n prophesy_v he_o and_o his_o spirit_n in_o one_o person_n be_v the_o candlestiks_n in_o who_o this_o mystery_n of_o god_n and_o truth_n of_o his_o council_n do_v burn_v and_o shine_v forth_o to_o the_o world_n and_o therein_o they_o be_v a_o certain_a witness_n of_o

glorious_o man_n or_o woman_n magistrate_n or_o minister_n or_o church_n 19_o can_v be_v call_v these_o two_o candlestick_n because_o the_o church_n eat_v take_v up_o and_o move_v by_o christ_n and_o such_o as_o be_v unwilling_a be_v make_v willing_a to_o bear_v the_o testimony_n of_o god_n by_o the_o almighty_a work_n of_o christ_n in_o they_o that_o believe_v but_o now_o christ_n and_o his_o

by_o the_o candlestick_n one_o upon_o the_o right_a side_n of_o the_o bowl_n and_o the_o other_o upon_o the_o left_a side_n thereof_o now_o these_o two_o olive-tree_n be_v jesus_n christ_n ☜_o and_o
