A69171	A treatise, touching Antichrist VVherein, the place, the time, the forme, the workmen, the vpholders, the proceeding, and lastly, the ruine and ouerthrow of the kingdome of Antichrist, is plainly laid open out of the word of God: where also manie darke, and hard places both of Daniell and the Reuelation are made manifest.

at_o some_o one_o time_n or_o other_o or_o else_o of_o the_o whole_a rabble_n of_o man_n in_o their_o succession_n which_o in_o that_o apostasy_n shall_v bear_v a_o swinge_n for_o many_o year_n who_o

yea_o of_o all_o the_o nation_n &_o kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n in_o like_a manner_n as_o paul_n 1._o cor._n 4.1_o by_o man_n in_o the_o singular_a number_n understand_v many_o which_o kind_n of_o

of_o man_n even_o as_o our_o saviour_n take_v unto_o he_o our_o humane_a nature_n although_o notwithstanding_o such_o as_o shall_v become_v antichrist_n shall_v be_v possess_v with_o a_o devilish_a

unfaithful_a yet_o he_o be_v not_o any_o particular_a &_o mortal_a man_n such_o as_o it_o appear_v math._n 24._o that_o famous_a antichrist_n shall_v be_v but_o even_o satan_n himself_o that_o old_a

apocalypse_n cap._n 13._o vers_fw-la 18._o be_v wrong_o interpret_v of_o any_o certain_a name_n title_n or_o call_v of_o any_o one_o man_n the_o letter_n whereof_o shall_v contain_v the_o number_n of_o 666._o for_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o that_o place_n meddle_v not_o with_o the_o arithmetical_a signification_n of_o letter_n wherewith_o any_o word_n be_v frame_v but_o of_o the_o time_n and_o number_n of_o year_n wherein_o those_o thing_n shall_v be_v accomplish_v that_o be_v there_o speak_v of_o for_o the_o scripture_n never_o use_v to_o deal_v in_o such_o manner_n of_o sorcer_n &_o
