¶ If any man haue an eare, let him heare. He that leadeth into captiuite, shall goe into captiuitie: he that kylleth with a swearde muste be killed with a swearde. Here is the pacience, and the faithe of the sainctes.

As thoughe he woulde saye: wilt thou heare howe the pryde, abhominacion and tyrannye hath or shall haue an ende? Than heare in one worde, howe the Assirians, Bybylonians, Medes and the Grecians had an ende: And euen so shall Rome also. Lyke as y hath ouercome, robbed, spoiled murthered, shamed and condemned all the world, euē so shall it be serued againe also. And so shall it happen vnto all them, that doe lyke vnto them, as Christ sayde in the garden. And therfore the angell and S. Iohn exhorte all christians (that are combred and oppressed with persecucion) and him selfe also whiche was banysshed into Pathmos & condemned of Domicianus for God and the true faithes sake, vn∣to pacience in perfyte faithe in God, whiche shall once geue and sende a prospe∣rous & a blissed ende vnto al suche afflicciōs. And shal eyther reforme y rageing Romyshe kingdome, or els shal vtterly destroye it, as he hath done the other.
