Apoc. 10. ••.

The text.

And I saw an other angell, strong, descending from heauen, clothed with a cloud, and a rainbowe on his head, and his face was as the sunne, and his feet as a pillar of fier.

The note.

Christ the valiant angell is heere described.

The answer.

I maruell that you followed not your Liranus to expounde this of the bishop of Rome: but that flatterie you are ashamed of, though in other things you excéede him. But the circumstances make it plaine, his dignitie, power, strength, his decking from top to toe, the greatnes of his voice, the brightnes of his counte∣nance, his vnused steps comprehending lande and sea togither, can not well agrée to any other.
