¶ The .xiii. Chapter. ¶ A beast ryseth out of the see with seuen heades and ten hornes. Another beast c&obar;meth out of the earth with two hornes.

A   And I sawe a beaste ryse out of þe; see, hauyng seuen heddes, and ten hornes, and vpon his hornes ten crounes, ∧ vpon his heed, þe; name of blasphemy. And þe; beast which I sawe, was lyke a catte of þe; mountayne, and hys fete were as þe; fete of a beare, ∧ hys mouth as the mouth of a lyon. And þe; dragon gaue hym his power ∧ his seate, ∧ gret auctorite: and I sawe one of his heedes as it were wounded to deeth, ∧ his dedly wo&ubar;de was healed. And all the worlde wondred at the beast, ∧ they worshypped þe; dragon, whych gaue power vnto the beast, and they worshypped þe; beast sayinge: who is lyke vnto the beast? who is able to warre with hym?

B   And ther was geuen vnto hym a mouth, that spake great thynges ∧ blasphemyes, ∧ power was geuen vnto hym, to do .xlii. monethes. And he opened his mouth vnto blasphemy agaynst God, to blaspheme his name ∧ his tabernacle, ∧ them that dwell in heauen. And it was geuen vnto hym to make warre with the Saynctes, ∧ to ouercome th&ebar;. C   And power was geuen him ouer all kynred, and people, and tonge, and nacion, and all þt; dwell vpon þe; erth worshypt hym: whose names are not written in the boke of lyfe of the l&abar;be, which was kylled from the begynnynge of the worlde. If eny man haue an eare let hym heare. He þt; leadeth into captyuyte, shall go into captyuyte: note he that kylleth with a swearde, must be kylled with a swearde. Heare is the pacyence, ∧ the fayth of the saynctes.

And I behelde another beast c&obar;m&ibar;ge vp out of the erth, and he had two hornes lyke a lambe, ∧ he spake as dyd the dragon. And he dyd all þt; the fyrste beast coulde do in his presence, ∧ he caused the erth, ∧ them which dwel therin, to worshyppe the fyrst beast, whose dedly wounde was healed. And he dyd grett wonders, so þt; he made fyre come doune from heauen in þe; syght of men. And deceaued them that dwelt on the erth, by þe; meanes of those sygnes whyche he had power to do in the syght of the beast, sayinge to them that dwelt on þe; erth: þt; they shuld make an ymage vnto the beast, whych had the wounde of a swearde, and dyd lyue.

D   And he had power to geue a sprete vnto the ymage of the beast, ∧ that the ymage of the beast shuld speake, and shuld cause, þt; as many as wolde not worshyppe the ymage of þe; beast, shuld be kylled. And he made all, both small ∧ gret, ryche ∧ poore, fre ∧ bond, to receaue a marke in theyr ryght h&abar;des or in theyr forheddes. And þt; no man myght by or sell, saue he that had the marke or the name of the beast, other the n&obar;bre of his name. Here is wysdome. Let hym that hath wytt, count the n&obar;bre of the beast. For it is the nombre of a man, and his n&obar;bre is syxe hondred, threscore, and syxe.
