1AND I saw an other sign in heaven great and wonderful. Seven Angels, having the seven last plagues. For in them is fulfilled the wrath of God. And I saw as it were a glassy sea mingled with fire, and them that had gotten victory of the beast, and of his Image, and of his mark, and of the number of his name, stand on the glassy Sea, having the harps of God: and they sung the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the lamb, saying: great and marvellous are thy works Lord God almighty, just and true are thy ways, thou King of Sainctee. Who shall not fear (O Lord) and glorify thy name? For thou only art holy, for all gentiles shall come and worship before the, for thy judgements are made manifest.

- 1The .15. Chapter.
1Upon occasion of harvest and vintage expounded in the last part of the former vision, is annexed the fifth part of this godly work, which representeth unto us the fourth vision of this work, which some make the fifth. The same is of the judgements of God, it hath two parts: wherefore it might also be divided into more visions, but we had rather use fewer. For first he discourseth most largely of the pains or torments prepared of God, & to be executed upon Antichrist his members, and all the ungodly: here is treated of the judgement of the whore of Babylon, of the destinies and ruin of Rome, and the church of Rome, of the rejoicing and song of saints, of the coming of the judge unto judgement, of the pain and everlasting destruction of all wicked. And these are entreated in the .15.16.17.18.19. and .20. chap. Than also he reasoneth most excellently of the reward of saints, and of the everlasting felicity, through out the whole .21. chap. and a good part of the .22. every where is set open hell it self, and heaven it self:
