WHose new Interpretati­on, not with Froath filled up, or Interlar­ded with differing Opinions of others, such old peices having No affinity and agreement with this BRITISH gar­ments or displayed COATE by blessed Prophets pend: So what the Ʋeritie of those fouer great Beasts, divers one from [Page 4]another, which should arise &c. Whoso would understand & know their mistery for this very time reserved, hitherto with the Kingdome of Heavens great seale shut up.

Distinguishing not only Nations but Times: The very truth of it: N'o­ther then the severall Coate, Armes, given or borne by him, the first of great Brittains Kingdoms or Monarchie.

Not unlike Jacobs united Familie his Wives▪ Children, and Children of the Hand-maids. The aforesaid Crowns foure, concerning whose peice of super-ar­tificiall Heraldry unknown to those Heralds of the King of great Babylon (Dan. 3.) e­ven at hand proclame the ancient of dayes, the aproach of that great day of his. So goe thy way Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end, [Page 5]which: Not only the Time, but unfolds unto what Nation or Language, revea­led those glad Tydings, as by the Word (Sealed) given to understand thereby. Even where the great Seale the Jmpression thereof, those fouer Coates or Beasts, styled Kings which shall arise, &c. And the Coine stampt therwith and the like, &c.

And so the first in the likenesse of a Lyon with Eagels wings, &c. first displays the armes of England and France, and then standing upon the feet like a man, a Lyon rampant (to wit) Scotlands coate, where the other the Jrish Instrument, or Harpe evident also out of Tune, &c. That no need to say, J am Joseph, or o­ver-verball to be in this case.

No more requisit then their asking [Page 6]either whether or no thy sonns coate this of so many colours or peices, as in the field, now those inumerable co­lours, &c. That were HE living, our Father JACOB would say, some evill beast had devoured us, to behold such blood shed amongst brethren and cruelty, as Since the Creation such a flood, the old Serpent never casting out of his mouth, and so like Joseph sold to the Midianits, our wofull estate, sale and rapine made, by Malignant bre­thren &c. But such miserable Ship­wracke with us being no news, shall re­turne to those misteries of Heraldry.

The frequent Oraments of your House wherefore to explain them farther, but needlesse; nor endlesse Figures here borrowed out of old Orators Bookes, suffices [Page 7]for figurative Demonstrations such, to render their meaning truly, running the way of the plaine rather for the ancient of dayes his comming to prepare the way. So for my Commission thus.

And farther as to you not unknown especially at what time your Mother became a VVriter or Secretary, con­cerning the unsealing or interpreting this obscure peice to open the Vission of Daniel, though no obscure persons of the seed of the KINGS and of PRIN­CES. Even in the yeere 1625. under­taken this burthen, following his steps, who declares when HE wrote first in BELCHAZARS first yeere, the last of those Caldeans of great Babylon.

Also shewed in that great plague yeere, when the City shut up: This Vission then [Page 8]opened, whereof even Then a Signe ro Token, not without a touch given in those words. But thou O Daniel shut up, &c. (Dan. 12.) And thus where every word a mistery, cannot passe over them, as none of the least His being so often saluted or stiled so highly of the Angel: O Daniel greatly beloved man, as much to say too, O KJNG of great Britaine! as Kings and Prophets; Bre­thren, Let him that reads Daniel under­stand.

And as it extends to this time also, beares Date forty foure; directly the present Yeare as these beareing Record of time and place, &c. of whose stor­ming daies thus. And Daniel spake and said, J saw and behold upon the great Sea, the foure Winds strove, and foure great Beasts came up. divers one from another [Page 9](to say) from beyond sea, the occasion of such divission, ready to be swallow'd up in these swelling Seas.

The first like a LYON, and Eagels wings, (Daniel 7.) J beheld till the VVings were pluckt thereof: And lifted up from the Earth, and made stand upon the Feete like a MAN: And a MANS HEART was given unto it, viz. The LYONS Passant (regardant) turn'd into the Rampant, &c. After her decease, a Virgin Prin­cesse of renown'd MEMORY, ENGLAND stil'd great Britaine, and then these foure severall Coates given, &c.

(And this Sayling on; or pursuing the Subject:) And behold another Beast, [Page 10]a second like to a BEARE, and it rai­sed it selfe upon one side: And had three Ribbs in the mouth of it, between the teeth of it. N'other then as it were dis­played The three LYLLIES: The Armes of FRANCE, to the full given by this KINGDOME, where Nothing but a meere Shadow, or the bare Coate of it Left, Leaves in stead of Fruite: Besides, how by a She-Beare, as this N'other: Three devi­ded KINGDOMS rent in peices. The Ribbe or Side, beares VVitnesse thereof, The second SEXE its Cha­racter.

And so farther from This saying, too well prooved; (Arise and devoure much FLESH:) even what Date it bears needlesse to say: Her MOTTO [Page 11]the Mother not of the Living Child, but of Divissions and Massacres, where inclusive the ador'd Sacrament called the MASSE: Thus uttered Her Voice, Let it bee neither Thine, nor Mine, but devide it: destroy it utterly, &c. No such Coate then, like to have any Affinitie with Solomons Ivory Ra­ment or Robe: as the Ensigne of Peace, the LILLY of the field, but rather a Slippe come out of the Bear-garden, unworthy to behold the Sunne: be­came degenerate and so wild: Sometime to none of the Flowers of Parradise inferiour.

And another like LEOPARD, Lyon-like SCOTL ANDS Coate the truth of it displaied Thus: Which had foure Heads, and foure VVings on the backe of it, as it were a Heralds [Page 12]Coate, or KING AT ARMS, &c. So great BRITAJNS foure KINGDOMS or Crownes proclaimes by them: And this the Summe of it; shewing Then revealed the time of END, when united These foure aforesaid, &c. As hereby farther appeares. (And Dominion was given unto it:) No small addition, after Her dayes raigning forty foure Yeares, for Scotland to give such a Large Coate by a Prince as unfortunate in His Progenie and Successor; As in his Predisessors or Parents: VVhere­fore liken'd to the LEOPARDS Spoted skinn those sable spots or drops.

And behold a fourth BEAST like a HARPYE, or some such Monster, having great Jron Teeth, [Page 13]and Nayls of brasse, to be short, the J­rish Harpe demonstrated, likewise the ve­ry wrest as it were a little Horne, of which Jnstrument not a little out of tune, as insues, stamping all underfoote Gods Law, Humaine Law.

And so farre for the Harpe, Like the very forequarter or ribbs informe or like­nesse, as strung in that manner ribb­wayes, whose short Horne the expresse Character of tirrants of no long continu­ance, raising up and setting lower, like the wrest according to their will made a law, changing and altering when they please.

Informing moreover concerning the blaspheming blasts of the little Horne, that had eies like a man, and such a mouth, as [Page 14]much to say, that mouth speaking such great things, a Womans and no Mans.

Her Proclamations at her com­mand, the great Seale, the Elders and the Nobles, so with the Story goeing on of that Idolatrious time, Come see now that cursed Womans spirit, she cast downe, &c. cunjured up, as it were, walks up and down, that like her selfe of her unnatu­rall Dogs, Acteon like eaten (of her none left to bury) Jezebel by name, Woe to the House, whose signification, so no other then a stolne peice by the Poet, very like to be, as that for another: Borrow­ed from Elias, Elevation, also the fable of Phateon, That Prophets being sought for as though some where had falne or miscarried.

Whose misteries or morralls in so high esteeme among the Heathen against many may rise in Judgement, of whom reverenced no more Divine Oracles further more, to weigh or unite those times, with our heavie dayes, Likewise Peace, though voiced, Jacobs voice like and the hands of Esau, yet such divisions and slaying of all hands, nothing but peace, put the question as though he sought nothing else, is it peace, and thus saith the King, is it peace.

And ever and againe, Thus saith the KING, &c. Js it peace, JEHƲ. New Propositions as it were. And Sir as long as her Sorcerors inforce doeing what she pleaseth, what hast thou to doe with peace, also at her last cast (when this Motto, who is on my side who) who troode HER underfoote, her inchanting voice, [Page 16] Had he Peace that slew his Master? (As it were to looke to his Head) This blood-thirsty Mistres of Charmes and Spells like Satans falling those aspiring Spirits.

So alike the time possest, now see what a double portion powr'd out of the curse what one leavs, another taks, He that escapes the Sworde of Hazael Je­hu slayes, and hee escaping Jehus Sword Elisha slayes, because the Land devided as those waters by him parted with the mantell of Elias, wherewith Sayled over Jordan River, and such virtue in it, be­in worne out by them, much more vi­gere then and Spirit in their Books be­ing perused and studyed upon.

And Mother and Daughter alike too. Now she cast into a languishing [Page 17]bed, confumed to nothing an Anato­my, &c. scarce any thing to bury.

The occasion of this LANDS deep CONSVMPTION SHE, And wast made thereof: Woe to the House of God, and the House of PAR­LIAMENT both, the nursing mo­ther of DRAGONS, those Sonns of BELJALL in armes, foras her name is, so is she MARRAH: The GALL of bitternesse.

But because the Daughter of a King as JEHƲ speake, Here forborne the Re­mainder, buryed in silence, for so births PREROGATIVE surmounts or goes before that gain'd by Marrage as desent and blood, a Character not to be blot­ted out, where with follows the state of [Page 18]VIRGINITY, the presidence theirs, Not in subjection as others.

And for ELJAS progresse in the SPIRIT: The returne of those long expected dayes, Let the READER be pleased for his satisfaction to turne but (to the Apocalyps the 11) And see in his COMMISSION to the Gentills. What date it beares there, concerning the revealed time of the Resurrection, &c. e­ven behold the Sevententh Centurye it mea­sured out by moneths and dayes, amoun­ting unto three years and halfe, the halfe of seaven like the time nothing, but divission, including the great mi­sticall weeke, exprest severall & divers wayes. A touch of which time folded up with that sevenfold marriage, put the question in the resurection whose wife, &c.

VVherefore of the last (turned) [Page 19]Houre-Glasse of time, Thus (Revel. &c.) And in the same Houre a great Earth Quake and the tenth part of the CI­TY fell, and slaine Seven Thousand, De­cima Pars, &c. and thus pend with the Character of the present when Elias his dayes shall appeare againe, their Resur­rection or Revolution, as it were by a beseiged City its modell, and yeelded or rendered up by the affrighted rem­nant, when such publike Thanksgi­ving, saying, Wee give thee thanks O LORD GOD Almighty, which art and wast, and art to come. Vtter'd (times) tre­ble voices, to weigh the time, &c.

And as a Reformation time, to the greatest part hatefull & unsufferable: so the day of Judgements tydings as wellcome, like the writs of Parliament that news to [Page 20]many also dreadfull, and detestable to the world, these makes it sufficiently plaine, and the Nations were angry the time of the dead was come that they should be judged, &c. (ergo or viz.) to be manife­sted to the Gentills, and so like the last Supper aforehand, shewing his death, likewise commands the little booke open'd to be received and eaten, as much to say, The last day revealed to be or afore shewed the Lords second comming, &c. Also by two witnesses, to witt, the Bookes of Daniel and St. John, although reproved for his firy Spirit: That he was forward and sudden in calling for the day of Judg­ment as it were: Then who knew not of what Spirit he was.

And here like Elias and Elijah not to be parted (those twain goeing along further [Page 21]with the last time, those aforesaid mour­ning moneths 4.2. And a Thousand two Hundred and Sixty dayes, and three dayes and a halfe, &c. (Revela. 11.) all but sounding the great dayes Alarme in the seventeenth Century: Then to watch as the time for the Elects cause pro­mised to be cut off and shortned, to witt its comming short of 2000. yeares, and so much for times sentence, to be no long­er (Revela. 10.) And the Sacramentall tree of life, or Bookes of the old and new Testament, afore mentioned, And he therefore that shall add or deminish from the set time written by those witnesses let Him expect the plagues also proceeding out of their mouths, Pestilence and Warre, &c. otherwise that might have escaped death no few with Elias have been ta­ken alive up, debarred from entering [Page 22]the rest, &c. as that figure of the Refur­rection, double witnessed by Elijah a touch of whose Corps therby one rai­sed up againe, but let downe into this Sepulchare.

So againe looking backe to Daniel touching the little Horne declaring or sounding the brevitye of great Brit­taines Monarchie, (Whose looke more stoute then his fellows) more over thus I considered the Hornes, And there came up another little Horne, before whom three of the first Hornes were pluckt up by the roots, the truth of it as much as to say, That he the first Heire of the red rose and the white. VVhose ISVE three of them Crown'd Princes childlesse, deceasing without Heires of their body, the Crown of England fell to Scotland, and great Brittaine so stiled, then wherefore bla­zoned [Page 23]by those great Beasts foure being from name of Bruite derived, whose Vni­corns Horne become as short as his fellowes. Lookeing of late as though al by conquest had been his, so according to his will wresting and altering what­soever, and possest with no little will­fullnesse as well as pride, proceeding from Ephnesse and Shallownesse.

And so from HENRY the fourths taking possession of the Kingdome, re­gained by EDWARD the fourth of those royall Rose ten in number (gi­ving the dunn Cow) so many even from the House, of Lancasters usurpati­on untill the diadem fell to be Scotlands lott, all which displayed by those Horns ten and another little Horne, &c. as Co­rone being derived from Cornua, and Caroles a Diminative, &c.

For saylingon, the VVind serving faire still, or for proceeding with the Map of great Brittains last Parliament, so manifest, that whose Image this, who needs to doubt, as a little farther, I shall hold on, &c. (J beheld, then be­cause of the great voice of the word which the Horne spake, J behold even till the Beast was slaine and his body given to the burning flame:) Some may say hath God care of Oxen? Yes doubtlesse beholds even such a Den or Draught of restlesse beastlinesse day and night, St. James-Fayre so called, not without Cause their Priviledge of late aboli­shed: As hereby appeares the Modell every of those Courts put downe: VVhere so long such Lawlesse doings there, &c.

(As for the rest of the Beasts, They [Page 25]had their Dominion taken away: BVT their Liver were prolonged) as Hee no little or inferiour Beast for one, whose voice set a Note lower, brought to the barre, though so long deferred, yet whose Judgement sleeps Not.

And then the Ancient of dayes, fitting in his Iudges Robe, and Locks like Snow, Even the day of Judgement clo­thed in the Parliaments likenesse: And the Parliament clouded under, or sha­dow'd out by the day of Iudgement. His comming in the Clouds, so all in their pure wooll, set forth & wooll Seats, and thus much for that: The judgement shall fit, and the Bookes were opened, the Bookes of the Old and New Testament also: Nothing covered that shall not be disclosed too and proclaimed.

Likewise by those Legions of An­gells, beside the Parliaments everlast­ing sitting, the warre raised, by them fet forth, like Dooms day as it were, when the Elements melting and the Heavens shaking, & Stars falling, like those Valies of Thunder-Bolts with light­nings, such a firy Streame now making way: the generall dayes Epitome & the con­clusion of all these, Dan. 7.

(And the Kingdome and Dominion, and the greatnesse of the Kingdome un­der the whole Heaven, Shall be given to the Saints of the mosthigh (OR RƲ ­LERS) whose Kingdome is an ever­lasting Kingdome.)

As to no other given such a high stile, except unto this Kingdome, &c. [Page 27]Hitherto is the end of the matter con­cerning the end, and as for Daniel his countenance changed, and his cogitations troubled. The troublesometime be­fore the change, fore saw even our evill times, His heart bleeding too, &c. And as Daniel signifying the judgement of God, so that Monsterous fourth Beast, as much to say; a Ʋiperous gene­ration:

Herewith is signyfied like Josephs & Pharoahs dreams doubled, even the seventeenth hundred yeare: By this very measure doubled to bee likewise: a Time and times, & the deviding of time, or three and a halfe, (viz. 7.) Surge & metire templum, (Revel. 11.) followes tempus & tempora, & dimidium temporis. The Resurrections time hereby mea­sured even in the present Century cut in [Page 28]the midst too (as it were) Paradventure fifty there, &c. And paradventure there shall lacke five of fifty, exprest in the day of judgements very language, as shall not the Judge of all the earth doe right, and Abram he but Dust and Ashes then.

VVith whom saying, Now J have taken upon me to speake, cannot here rest shewing farther, as Noah outlived the Flood, three hundred years and dyed, two thousand years after the Creation, likewise now the time abated or comes short 300. years, wherefore the disolu­tion in the seventeenth hundred yeare, and thus cut off so many yeares, like the shortned dayes of Enoch whom God tooke, who lived three hundred yeares and Eternitys forerunner begat Me­theuseliah, thus five hundred years a­mounts [Page 29]to a PERIOD, as deeply sworne the Time should be longer, (Reve­la. 10.) measured by the CREA­TORS his right hand lifted up, Tem­pus non erit amplius, sed in diebus vocis septimi Angeli: Times mistery revealed, &c. as promised to be witnessed by the Prophets, his servants concerning times TRVMPET then put to si­lence time no more, &c.

And lastly for MICHAELMVS (1644) That happie halfe yeare herein in­cluded, a time and times and halfe also, to disperse the Forces, &c. Revela. the 12. and Dan. the 12. concerning Micha­els alarme, there signified and so like a Thiefe in the night as this fearful night vission, appeares even the end stolne upon the whole world, or comming as the travel of a VVoman misreckoning [Page 30]sometimes taken before SHE looks.

Also farther for this last of Parlia­ments, & whereas Gods word able to speake for it selfe of full age, other argument whatsoever, needlesse, it being of a quicker returne, shall presse another place of Scripture, as briefly explaind as o­thers afore, Reve. 10.9. Concerning that Albion Army, and Aleluja voices where even the revealed time of the Lords com­ming. And the writs of this happie Par­liament sealed up in one: Scribe Beata, &c. They that are called to this meeting, &c. All sealed with the Vnicorne in pure Paper, as it were mounted on white Horses, or like the great shew. both going together: as noted &c.

Nomen scriptum quod nemo novit, the Parliaments name in another language, [Page 31]viz. et vocabant nomen ejus verbum dei. The Word, &c. et cum Justitia judicat, et pugnat. And upon his head many Crowns with a garment dipt in blood, deep Scarlet clothed, and on his vesture, and upon his legg written, &c.

Namely the Colour and Garter of the order the Knights of St. Gorge (Ecce e­quus Albus) likewise from Chival and Equus. And thus the Knights and Es­quires of both Houses displayed, of what house, and so from the name of Oxford, thus, et vidi Beastiam et Regis terrae et exercitus, &c. Revela. 10.9.

And for the aforesaid warre so farr, as for the motive, Meritrice magna qui corrupit terram in prostitutione sua, &c. Hath bin shew'd afore where she pain­ted [Page 32]like her Images that downfall of Hers before theirs.

Also added these to the premises be­cause injoyned not to part, or put asun­der what is joyn'd, shewed Farthermore, The great Jmage, (Dan. 2.) even armed at all points, the verity of those foure Me­tals, ore Argent, &c. the very same like­wise divers one from another. Aper­tains to the foure great Beasts the one ri­sing out of the Earth, the other out of the Sea.

So contains Caesars Superscription even the Roman Empires age, written in in those Characters of the 3. Ribs, 4. VVings and the 10. Horns and then those Eagles wings so lifted up pluckt too, notwithstanding Germanies manly looks, that Saxon state: like this great [Page 33] Statue unable longer to stand upon its feet, not unlike Irelands estate, the mo­dell of that Empire in such a flourishing condition, and as the blow then in the 17. yeare of the present reigne, so the other in the 1700. &c. broken so soon in peices: Wherefore the world but like a Dreame va­nished: Like his suddain awaking in a moment forgotten all, &c.

But now returning to great Brittains brittle condition againe: That union dissol­ved and broken in peices since his dayes: He the head of GOLD, as by those pei­ces called JACOBƲS, after his name, &c. And he the ROMAN SPA­NISH Emperour by his tribute of late, since the Judies discovery, who makes up the head of Gold too: And all this but to manifest and shew. That God is a Re­vealer [Page 34]of Secrets in these dayes also: Reve­ales the deep and secret things, And maketh known what shall be in the Latter dayes, by divers & severall demonstrations, as this for another: Of the Axe laid to the roote: That tree or pedigree whose fruit much of such a hight, reached up to Hea­ven, this Jacobs Ladder, &c. And now but the Stump end remains as yee see.

The very VVoods every where proclaims it, where the Axe never put so to the Root, such felling, &c. And so the Axe that fell into the water, by a sticke cast into it, caused to swime: The Morrall thereof no other then the Resurrection time revealed to be by the Spirit of prophe­sie. As much to say, As the late hand writing for a seale or signe of it, a suffi­cient propheticall proclamation though not [Page 35]on the Walls, &c. in the Banquetting-House, yet not unknown to Lord [...]o few how these applied. Thy King­dome numbred, and thou found wanting, &c. and come to passe too, as published and printed, 1633. sufficiently known, in meeter to his Majestie from great Babylon transferred to great Brittain.

And so this but the truth of it (shew­ed in the 12. of the Revelation) How Satan because he knows his reigne or time to be short: is ready to devoure the VVoman even for the truth of the Resurrection time revealed, as most pro­per to be performed by that sex, a Woman by whom death came to be the Messenger of Life. And so, WOE TO THE IN­HABJTERS of the EARTH, and of the SEA, &c.

And since a pleasing Theame (as [Page 36]tis said) makes a good Orator, and sure I am a worse time then this never known or ever heard of, so then the time the end discovered, although pend somewhat hastily or unperfectly, &c. being like the hony: and like the hony gathered out of so many parts, I shall the lesse need to excuse it unto such as have a ful knowledge of the Scriptures, That should it be written at large a Chronicle or a booke as ample as those tables, of the Mapps of the VVorld could I suppose not contain it.

Not sutable to the little book, being but an Epittomie as it were, and so much for being not voluminous, especially when the time [...]o short too: as by Ty­rant time his reigne expired, shew'd to be and these the apointed Scutchins for [Page 37]his Hersse apeared, those winged Beasts devouring times likenesse, &c.

As by this one wittnesse more pro­duced or set forth: asigned to the present, even in the dayes of these Kings, or u­nited Kingdoms: Shall the God of Hea­ven set up a Kingdome which never be di­stroyed. And the Kingdome shal not be left to other, &c. And shall breake in peices, even to the same effect, with that (Dan. the 7.) The greatnesse of the Kingdome under the whole Heaven, for e­ver given to the Saints (or Rulers, &c.) which shall breake in peices, &c. viz. By those ordinance or orders of Parlia­ments, and feild peices, &c.

And yet not so strange as true; not­withstanding such a troublesome time [Page 38] O let Jsmale live as it were, prefer'd be­fore Jsaac to be his Heire, And Absolons life before Solomon the wise (O Absolon my sonne Absolon) Like Egypts Leekes & Garlike before Canaans Grapes, &c. And so preferred this worlds vanity & folly before everlasting Righteous­nesse, endlesse Joy, life eternall, and now ended thus this point of Honour, dis­playing the Ancient of dayes his King­dome your portion to you dedicated: that so punctually have discharged that du­ty of the first commandement with promise, in so much and such disho­nour endured, have bene your mo­thers Copartner, even You, her alone and sole support under the Almighty. So Ʋeni Domine Jesu, gracia Domine, &c.
