In the. 24. daye of the first moneth I was by the gret ryuers syde called Ty∣gris. And when I loked vp / I sawe a man in a whight linyne vesture whose loynes were gyrt vp with glistering gold / whose bodye was beutifull lyke a violete or ia∣cinthe / his face lyke lyghteninge and his eyes lyke a burninge lampe / & his armes and feete so bright as any polisshed steell and the voyce of his wordis as it were the vehement noyse of a multitude.
Now daniel describeth the tyme & pla∣ce of this counfortable vision and also yt face & estate of the persone sene. For god wold now conforte heuye daniel / and not onely of the mutaciōs of the empyres to come / but also of the calamities now pre∣assinge vpon the iewes before crystis co∣minge / & make them for this cause more certayn: that therof their posterite / & we might lerne with feare to call vpon oure zelouse God / and in fayth wayt fore oure sauiour cryste. This firste moneth is Ni∣san / oure marche / wherin thei celebrated the memoriall passouer lomb in the remē∣brance of their delyuerāce out of Egypte The man whom he sawe was crist / whom hereaftir he calleth Michael and the so∣ne of man. A lyke descripcion is there of
descriptionPage 172
him in the Apocal. 1. Wherof as some for∣mes be terrible / so be some of his parties pleasant and counfortable to beholde as both the psal. 44. & Isay. 11. describe him / teachinge vs that cryst according to his lawe and gospell / is with his gospell io∣conde and plesant to all godly men / & ter∣rible and fearfull with his lawe vnto all ye vngodly. And therfore is he thus payn∣ted of the prophetis. His sight to beholde∣is ferefull to them that shall wisshe the hills to fall vpon them to couer them from his countenance. And mighty and terri∣ble is that same his voyce and breath of his mouth which slayeth the vngodly.
The reste of his body described is plesant and ioyouse to beholde to the beleuers. His whight vesture & so▪ to be a man mor∣tall therby / signifieth him / as daniel he∣reaftir saith / to be made whight with his crosse & passion / to enter into his glorye.
