The Testimony of the Angels.
1. To Mary herself.
And in the sixth Month the Angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a City of Galilee named Nazareth, to a Virgin espoused to a Man whose Mame was Joseph, and the Virgin's Name was Mary; and the Angel came in unto her, and said, Hail thou that art highly favoured. And the Angels aid unto her, Fear not, Mary, for thou hast found favour ⟨p. 29⟩with God. And behold, thou shalt conceive in thy Womb, and bring forth a Son, and shalt call his Name Jesus. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest. And the Lord God shall give unto him the Throne of his Father David, and he shall reign over the House of Jacob for ever, and of his Kingdom there shall be no end, Luk. 2. 26, 35.
2. The Angels Testimony to the Shepherds, as they were feeding their Flocks in the Fields by Night.
