1AND after that, I saw an Angel come down from Heaven having great power, and the Earth was lightened with his brightness: and he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying: she is fallen, she is fallen, even great Babylon, and is become the habitation of Devils, and the hold of all unclean spirits, & a cage of unclean and hateful birds: for all nations have drunken of the wine of the wrath of her whoredom. And the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and her merchants are waxed rich of the abundance of her pleasures.
