The final Conclusion is, That the rise of the Wit∣nesses, the end of the Beasts reign, and treading un∣derfoot the Holy City, and the first stirring of the Jews, will in greatest likelihood be in the year 1656, with which year ends the 1290 dayes, the 1260, the 42 months. The Personal coming of Christ, the final destruction of the four Beasts, or Monarchy, and the compleat deliverance of the Jews, in the year 1701, with which year ends Daniels 2300 dayes, and his 1335.

Matth. 24.48. But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My Lord delayeth his coming;

49. And shall begin to smite his fellow-servants, and to eat and drink with the Drunken:

50. The Lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,

51. And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the Hypocrites, there shall be weeping, and gnashing of teeth.
