The XIII. Chapter.
A And I sawe a beest rise out of the see,
hauinge seuen heades, and x. hornes,
and vpon his hornes x. crownes, and
vp&obar; his heed, the names of blasphemy. noteAnd
the beest which I sawe was lyke a catt of
the mountayne, and his fete were as the fete
of a bear, note and his mouth as the mouthe
of a lyon. And þe; drag&obar; gaue him his power
and his seate, and greate auctorite: and I
sawe one of his heades as it were wounded
to death, and his dedly wounde was healed.
And all the worlde w&obar;dred at the beest, and
they worshipped the dragon which gaue
power vnto the beest, and they worshipped
the beest, sayenge: who is like vnto the beest?
who is able to warre with him?
And there was geuen vnto him a mouth
to speake greate thinges ∧ blasphemies, and
power was geuen vnto him, to do xlij. monethes.
And he opened his mouth vnto blasphemy
agaynst God, to blaspheme his name,
and his tabernacle and them that dwell
in heauen. noteAnd it was geuen vnto him to
make warre with the sayntes, and to ouercome
them. And power was geuen him ouer
all kynred, tonge, and nacion: note and all that
-- --
dwell vpon the earth worshipt him: whose
names are not wrytten in the boke of life of
the lambe, which was kylled from the beginnynge
of the worlde. Yf eny man haue
an eare, let him heare. He that leadeth in to
captiuite, shal go in to captiuite: note he that
killeth with a swearde, must be killed with
þe; swearde. noteHeare is the pacience, and the
faith of the saynctes.
And I behelde another beest commynge
vp out of the earth, and he had two hornes
like a lambe, and he spake as dyd the drag&obar;.
And he dyd all that the first beest coulde do
in his presence, and he caused the earth, and
them which dwell therin, to worshippe the
fyrst beest, whose deedly wo&ubar;de was healed.
C And he dyd greate wonders, so that he made
fyre come downe from heau&ebar; in the sight
of men. And deceaued them that dwelt on
the earth by þe; meanes of those signes which
he had power to do in the sight of the beest,
sayenge to them that dwelt on the earth:
that they shulde make an ymage vnto the
beest, which had the wounde of a swearde
and dyd liue.
And he had power to geue a sprete vnto
the ymage of the beest, and that the ymage
of the beest shulde speake, and shulde cause,
that as many as wolde not worshippe the
ymage of the beest, shulde be kylled. And he
made all bothe smale and greate, ryche and
poore, fre and bond, to receaue a marke in
their right hondes, or in their forheades.
And that no man might by or sell, saue he þt;
had þe; marke, or the name of the beest, ether
the nombre of his name. Here is wi&esset;dome.
Let him that hath wyt, count the nombre
of the beest. For it is the nombre of a man,
and his nombre is sixe hondred, thre score
and sixe.
