( 15 )
Follows that sin, besides 'tis a great schism,
'Tis ceremonious, 'tis Pagan Judism;
Judism? why Beloved, have you ere been
Where the black Dog of Newgate you have seen?
Hair'd like a Turk, with eyes like Antichrist,Description
of Anti-christ.
He doth and hath ye Brethren long entic't.
Claws like a Star-chamber Bishop, black as hell,
and doubtless he was one of those that fell.

My Book, must reign three days, and three half days,
Why that is three years and a half beloved.
Or else as many precious men have proved,
One thousand two hundred and threescore dayes;
Why now the time's almost expir'd, time stayes
For no man; friends then Antichrist shall fall,
Then down with Rome, with Babel, down with all,
Down with the Devil, the Pope, the Emperour,And hey
then up we go

With Cardinals, and th' King of Spain's great power;
They'l muster up, but I can tell you where,
At Armageddon, there, Beloved, there,
Fall on, fall on, kill, kill, haloo, haloo,
Kill Amalek, and Turk, kill Gog and Magog too.
But who dear friends fed Daniel thus forsaken,

As 'tis in th' English his name ends in uck,
And so his name is called Habacuck.
