And S. John sayeth, how he saw an Angel flying through the midst of heaven, and heard him crying: woe, woe,1 woe to the inhabitants of the Earth, and that for those things which should chance unto men than, when the other three trumpets should be blown. Therefore unto every trumpet is Joined an woe. Which we express very well in dutch by owe, owe, owe. For the Greeks say, and S. John wrote in Greek, [Greek or Hebrew]. And it signifieth verily, that the times of the former conflicts were sharp: but yet that such as follow shall be a great deal sharper and crueller. For I told ⟨p. 250⟩you in an other place, that this vocable woe, compriseth the evils both of this life present, and also of the life to come, aswell of body as of soul. Therefore shall the times of Papistry, Mahometrie, and of the last judgement, be most dangerous.
And S. Iohn sayeth, howe he sawe an Aungell flying thorowe the middes of heauen, and hearde him criyng: wo, wo,1 wo to the inhabiters of the Earth, and that for those thinges which should chaunce vnto men than, when the other three trompettes should be blowen. Therfore vnto euery trompet is Ioyned an wo. Whiche we expresse very well in dutche by owe, owe, owe. For the Grekes saye, and S. Iohn wrote in Greke, 〈non-Latin alphabet〉. And it signifieth verely, yt the times of the fourmer conflictes were sharpe: but yet that suche as follow shal be a great deale sharper and crueller. For I tolde ⟨p. 250⟩you in an other place, that this vocable wo, compriseth the euilles bothe of this life present, and also of the life to come, aswell of body as of soule. Therfore shall the times of Papistrie, Mahometrie, and of the last iudgement, be most daingerouse.
