one month (taking a day for a year, by Daniel's week expounded) or may be in one deciſive battle her powers may be broken-And this Proteſtant Prince is plainly pointed at by the Propheteſs Cybelles to be a Pruſſian who will be endued with the ſpirit of Joſhua truly zealous for the cauſe of Chriſt, and a defender of the Proteſtant faith, a lover of all who profeſs the ſame a faint a ſoldier a lover of God and good people. He ſhall be often perplexed, and almoſt overcome, but at laſt victorious, and die in peace, and be crowned among the ſaints in heaven.
But before theſe things come to paſs. I perceived. When in the Spirit the four quarters of the earth by turns, ſhall be in a manner laid waſte and deſolate by wars earthquakes plagues, peſtilence and famine; the air wa ers, ea ab es, and fruits of the earth, ſhall become a flying poiſon to the living, yet in all theſe days of adverſity it ſhall go well with the elect the broken hearted ſhall be comforted, thoſe that mourn in Zion ſhall be preſerved plague or peſtilence ſhall have no power of them, they only ſhall behold it with their eyes, though houſands fall on their right hand, and ten houſand on their left, yet unto them it ſhall ot come right but the wicked ſhall be ſwept way as with an overflowing flood of God's rath; and then ſhall the righteous who are f, enjoy as it were a heaven on earth; for he prayer which our Lord taught his diſciples all then be fulfilled Thy kingdom come. Thy ill be done on earth as it is in heaven. This, ear. Sir, this I ſend you God grant you joy nd proſperity in the conſideration thereof.
