1And like as Princes discern their subjects & servants by colours and cognizances, and the common people also their cattle by several brands and marks, whereby they may be known whose they are, or whom they serve. For every man hath his colours: he white and black, he red & blew, an other white & red, some black & yellow, which they give their soldiers & servants to wear, & they profess thereby to be retained to him or him. And as they mark their horses with their brand, and set their marks upon household vessel: So shall Antichrist doubtless have also his [Greek or Hebrew] to wit, his mark, whereby he may both bind wen to him, and so bounden shall mark, that they may be discerned from others, and by this mean may wear the badge, and as it were the colours of their Lord and Master. And he will give his mark on the right hand, or on their foreheads.

For euery man hath his cullours: he white and blacke, he red & blewe, an other white & red, some blacke & yelow, which they geue their soldiours & seruauntes to weare, & thei professe thereby to be reteined to him or him. And as they marke their horses with their brand, and set their marks vpon household vessel: So shall Antichriste doubtles haue also his 〈non-Latin alphabet〉 to wit, his marke, whereby he may both bynde wen to him, and so boūden shal marke, that they may be discerned from others, and by this meane maie weare the badge, and as it were the cullours of their Lorde and Maister.
