The IX. Chapter.
A And the fyfte angell blewe, ∧ I sawe
a starre fall from heau&ebar; vnto þe; earth.
noteAnd to him was geu&ebar; the kaye of the
bottomlesse pytt. And he opened the bottomlesse
pytt, and there arose the smoke of a
greate fornace. And the Sonne, and þe; ayer
were darkned by the reason of the smoke of
the pytt. And there came out of the smoke
locustes vpon the earth: and vnto th&ebar; was
geuen power as the scorpions of the earth
haue power. And it was sayde vnto them,
that they shulde not hurt the grasse of the
earth: note nether eny grene thinge: nether eny
tre: but onely those men which haue not the
seale in their forhedes, and to them was c&obar;maunded,
that they shulde not kyll th&ebar;, but
that they shulde be vexed fyue monethes,
and their payne was as the payne that c&obar;meth
of a scorpion, when he hath stonge a
man.
B And in those dayes shal m&ebar; seke deeth,
and shal not fynde it: and shal desyre to dye,
and death shal flye from them. note
And the similitude of the locustes was lyke
vnto horses prepared vnto battayll, and
on their heades were as it were crownes, lyke
vnto golde: and their faces were as it had
bene the faces of men. And they had heere
as the heere of wemen. And their tethe were
as the tethe of lyons. And they had habbergions,
as it were habbergions of yron.
And the sounde of their wynges, was as þe;
sounde of charettes wh&ebar; many horsses runne
together to battayle. And they had tayles
lyke vnto scorpions, and there were stynges
in their tayles. And their power was to
hurt m&ebar; fyue monethes. And they had a kinge
ouer them, which is the angel of the bottomlesse
pyt, whose name in the hebrew tonge,
is Abadon: but in the greke tonge, Apollion.
One wo is past, and beholde two woes
come yet after this.
C And the sixte angel blewe, and I herde a
voyce from the foure corners of the golden
aultre which is before God, sayenge to the
sixte angel, which had the trompe: Lowse
the foure angels, which are bounde in the
greate ryuer Eufrates. And þe; foure angels
were lowsed, which were prepared for an houre,
for a daye, for a moneth, and for a yeare,
for to slee the thyrde parte of men. And the
nombre of horsmen of warre, were twenty
tymes x M. And I herde þe; nombre of them.
And thus I sawe the horses in a vision, and
them that sat on th&ebar; hauynge fyry habbergions
of a yalowe and brymstony colo&highr;, and
the heades of þe; horses werre as the heades
of lyons.
D And out of their mouthes went
forth fyre, and smoke, and brymstone. And of
these thre was the thirde parte of men kylled:
that is to saye, of fyre, smoke, and brymstone,
which proceded out of the mouthes of
th&ebar;: For their power was in their mouthes
-- --
and in their tayles: for their tayles were like
vnto serp&ebar;tes, and had heades, and with th&ebar;
they dyd hurt: And the remnaunt of the m&ebar;
which were not kylled by these plages, rep&ebar;ted
not of the dedes of their hondes, þt; they
shulde not worshippe deuels, and ymages
of golde, and syluer, and brasse, ∧ stone, and
of wod, which nether can se, nether heare,
nether go. Also they repented not of their
murthur, and of their witchcraft, nether of
their whordome, nether of their thefte.
