VERS. LIII.
〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉.
This is your hour and the power of darkness.
THE Serpent himself is now come in Judas, and the seed of the Serpent was that Rout that came with him, to whom it was so fatal to bruise the heel of the Messiah, and now was the hour for that wickedness. It was antiently foretold and predetermined both as to the thing it self and the instruments, and now all fences lye open, and you may do what you please. The chains of the Devil himself are now loosed, and it is permit∣ted to him without the least check or restraint of Divine Providence to exert all his Fu∣ries at pleasure, for now is the power of darkness.
〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, darkness is the Devil amongst the Allegorists. o 1.1It is said, on the first day of the Creation, the Angel of death (i. e. the Devil) was created, according as it is written, there was darkness upon the face of the deep: that is, the Angel of death, who darkneth the eyes of men.
